Livin' Without You Composer(s): David Cassidy - Rick Neigher - Sue Shifrin Performer(s): David Cassidy
Swore I would find you if it takes me forever God only knows it might take that long Keep walkin' down these empty sidewalks Thinkin' I see you but I'm always wrong Since you've been gone baby nothin's gone right When you kissed me goodbye it was the kiss of death Ever since you left There's no livin' without you I've tried But I'm not livin' without you As long as I'm alive I'm not livin' without you You sent me off to this lonely prison I serve my sentence all alone You wanted blood - that's what you're gettin' Pay with my life every day you're gone I'd die for a chance just to hold you again I'd give anything to taste your kiss of life Don't let a good thing die There's no livin' without you I've tried But I'm not livin' without you As long as I'm alive I'm not livin' without you Baby you could save me Come back to me and then You could help me Through this long night Breathe life into me again There's no livin' without you I've tried But I'm not livin' without you As long as I'm alive I'm not livin' without you

Livin' Thing Composer(s): Jeff Lynne First release by: Electric Light Orchestra - 1976 Covered by multiple other artists
Sailin' away on the crest of a wave It's like magic Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' & slidin' It's magic
And you, and your sweet desire You took me, higher and higher It's a livin' thing It's a terrible thing to lose It's a given thing What a terrible thing to lose
Making believe this is what you've conceived From your worst day, Moving in line when you look back in time To your first day
And you, and your sweet desire You took me, higher and higher It's a livin' thing It's a terrible thing to lose It's a given thing What a terrible thing to lose
Takin' a dive 'cos you can't halt the slide Floating downstream, So let her go don't start spoiling the show It's a bad dream
And you, and your sweet desire You took me, higher and higher It's a livin' thing It's a terrible thing to lose It's a given thing What a terrible thing to lose
Meat Balls Composer(s): Lil Johnson Performer(s): Lil Johnson; Dana Gillespie
Got out late last night, in the rain and sleet Tryin' to find a butcher that grind my meat Yes I'm lookin' for a butcher He must be long and tall If he want to grind my meat 'Cause I'm wild about my meat balls
A no good man but he's so doggone stout Before he starts to grindin' he's all worn out Somebody send me a butcher He must be long and tall If he want to grind my meat 'Cause I'm wild about my meat balls
He can clean my fish, even pick my crabs But what I need is my meat ground bad Yes I'm lookin' for a butcher He must be long and tall If he want to grind my meat 'Cause I'm wild about my meat balls
You can have your roast chicken and your good lamb stew But for my choice them old meat balls will do Somebody send me a butcher He must be long and tall If he want to grind my meat 'Cause I'm wild about my meat balls
Now look here papa, don't try to stall If you can't grind a long time, don't grind at all Yes I'm lookin' for a butcher He must be long and tall If he want to grind my meat 'Cause I'm wild about my meat balls
All Of It Composer(s): Garry Ó Briain Performer(s): Skylark and multiple other artists
Oh, dear, what's the matter, they're rowin' and squabblin' There seems to be something awry For the last forty nights they've been having a fight And we always can hear the same cry
Give me all of it, all of it, not just a bit of it None of your quarters, your thirds or your halves For the long and the tall, and the rise and the fall of it All of it, all of it, all
The Priest at the altar was noticed to falter And he seemed to be weak at the knees When the Deacon poured drops of red wine from his cups We could make out his virtuous pleas
Give me all of it, all of it, not just a bit of it None of your quarters, your thirds or your halves For the long and the tall, and the rise and the fall of it All of it, all of it, all
The fiddler was playin' below in the kitchen In the wee after hours that are best When he left out a beat in the turn of the reel And the dancers all stopped to request
Give me all of it, all of it, not just a bit of it None of your quarters, your thirds or your halves For the long and the tall, and the rise and the fall of it All of it, all of it, all
The barman was spilling, and wiping and spilling And the drinkers discussed this and that When his thumb in the measure he aroused their displeasure And he brought this response from one pat
Give me all of it, all of it, not just a bit of it None of your quarters, your thirds or your halves For the long and the tall, and the rise and the fall of it All of it, all of it, all
Now I've not the gumption nor hard neck to finish This song's nothing less than obscene But I trust your good taste, and I know you won't waste Yours and my precious time if you scream
Give me all of it, all of it, not just a bit of it None of your quarters, your thirds or your halves For the long and the tall, and the rise and the fall of it All of it, all of it, all
Livin' Lovin' Doll Composer(s): Jim Gustard - Johnny May First recording/First release by: Cliff Richard & The Drifters - 1958/1959
You drive me crazy when we're bopping at the hop You squeeze me tight, my heart goes flippity-flop Your brand of kisses drives me right up the wall Oh oh oh, you livin' lovin' doll You treat me mean and nasty, don't come when I call Oh oh oh, you livin' lovin' doll, well ...
All of a sudden when your lips knocked me out Your eager arms taught me what love's all about I need you summer winter springtime and fall Oh oh oh, you livin' lovin' doll You treat me mean and nasty, don't come when I call Oh oh oh, you livin' lovin' doll
We-ell livin' lovin' doll Livin' lovin' doll I want you, want you all the time, I have to kiss you, can't resist you Oh oh oh, you livin' lovin' doll We-ell livin' lovin' doll Livin' lovin' doll I want you, want you all the time, I have to kiss you, can't resist you Oh oh oh, you livin' lovin' doll

Mama meine puppe soll gross sein und schön Ja so schön wie Mama, und das glück soll dann nie von uns gehn
Wie sie damals war So seh ich sie noch heut Blondes lockenhaar Rosa seidenkleid Und ich wünschte mir Eines irnmerzu Meine puppe wär Emmal so wie Du
Mama, meine puppe soll gross sein und schön Ja so schön wie Mama, und das glück soll dann nie von uns gehn
Heut steh ich vor dir Bitte lass mich ein Draussen ist es kalt Ich bin so allein Scherben in der hand Kornrn ich nun zurück Wie ein puppentraum So zerbrach mein Gück
Mama, meine puppe soll gross sein und schön Ja so schön wie Mama, und das glück soll dann nie von uns gehn
Als ich von dir ging War mein herz so blind Jedes wort von dir Hörte nur der wind Nun ist es zu spät Und die Einsamkeit Trage ich zu dir Wie zur kinderzeit
Mama, meine puppe soll gross sein und schön Ja so schön wie Mama
Mama English Title: Mama (When My Dollies Have Babies) Composer(s): Sonny Bono; Jacques Monty Performer(s): Dalida
Oui je me revois Une poupée dans les bras Lui parlant tout bas Me parlant de toi Elle était si belle Vêtue de dentelles Elle me souriait Et je te disais
Mama Quand ma poupée grandira je veux qu'elle te ressemble Mama Et nous serons très heureux ensemble
Vois-tu aujourd'hui J'ai besoin de toi Mon amour s'enfuit Et soudain j'ai froid Car je n'ai plus rien Rien qu'une poupée Brisée dans mes mains A qui je disais
Mama Quand ma poupée grandira je veux qu'elle te ressemble Mama Et nous serons très heureux ensemble
J'ai gâché mes jours Sans trouver l'amour Tu me l'avais dit Quand je suis parti Et quand le chagrin Vous prend par la main Alors on se souvient Que sans toi on est rien
Mama Quand ma poupée grandira Je veux qu'elle te ressemble Mama
Livet Är En Fest Composer(s): Ulf Dageby Performer(s): Nationalteatern
På fredagskvällen bubblar det i blodet, man är kåt vi skulle gå på Vågen och dansa oss en låt vi grundade med groggen, Greven, Plast och jag och fredagsdrömmen växte om en flicka varm och glad
Livet är en fest Håll mä om dä folk och fä Men om livet är pest Fyllan värmer bäst
Men när vi kom till Vågen, då var det nåt som dog där var det knuff och trängsel, och inte många log vi satte oss i baren och tog en flaska vin Och drömmen börja slakna om en flicka varm och fin
Livet är en fest......
Sen hängde vi i baren, drick min broder, drick orkestern malde svensktopp och sista dansen gick och jävlar vad jag ville, att det nånstans fanns en tjej som kunde komma fram ur röken, fram till mig och säga: HEJ !
Livet är en fest ......
Sen stängde dom och vi gick hem, vår fredagsdröm var slut Jag spydde i en rännsten, blev utskälld av en snut Men glöm din värk i hjärtat och glöm ditt kneg min vän För snart så är det fredag, då försöker vi igen
Mama Composer(s): Mark Charron Performer(s): B.J. Thomas
Who's the one who tied your shoe when you were young And knew just when to come and see what you had done? Mama, oh Mama And who's the one who patched your eye and told you not to cry 'cause he was too big for you to try? Mama, Ma-a-ma
And who's the one you didn't need to plead To give her time to the Little League? It was Mama, oh, ma-a-a-ma-a-a And who's the one who gave her shoulder When you told her your first love was over she'd met someone older Mama, Mama
It was Mama, my ma-a-a-ma-a-a
Ma-a-ma, oh ma-a-ma
Who's the one who taught you obligation then dedication result graduation? Mama, Mama And who's the one who's shown the friends you've known A home away from home when they were tired and all alone? Mama, Mama
And who's the one who held a tear inside When you introduced your future bride? And who's the one who didn't mean to cry As you walked down the aisle, the tears you saw her smile Mama, oh, Mama Ma-a-m-a-a, my Ma-a-ma-a It was Ma-a-m-a-a
Liverpool Town Composer(s): Stan Kelly - Leon Rosselson Performer(s): Liverpool Town
Oh I wish I was back in Liverpool Liverpool town where I was born Where there ain't no trees, no scented breeze No fields of waving corn Where there's lots of girls with peroxide curls And the black and tan flows free Where there's six in a bed by the old pier head And it's Liverpool town for me
Now t'is seven long years since I've wandered away To sail the wide sea over I took me a trip on an old steamship That was bound for Baltimore I was seven days sick, I just could not stick That bobbing up and down And I told him, Jack, you'd better turn back For dear old Liverpool town
Now there's every race and color of face There's every kind of name But the pigeons on the pier head Sure they treat you all the same If you walk on down Parliament Street You'll see faces black and brown And I've also seen them orange and green In dear old Liverpool town
Malos Pensamientos Composer(s): Miguel Mateos Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
Y va otra noche sin dormir le arranco un ala al corazón contemplo al mundo en un espejo quebrado como un satélite de tu amor y giras, y giro, me giras y todo da vueltas sin parar
Son malos pensamientos muy dentro de mí Nena, son malos pensamientos libéralos de mí
Y cuando miro hacia atrás ya no hay lugar donde ir y a veces nada, nada tiene sentido es como un carrousel de fotos, y fotos oscuras un sueño, de un sueño en espiral
Son malos pensamientos muy dentro de mí Nena, son malos pensamientos libéralos de mí libéralos de mí
y giras, y giro, me giras y todo da vueltas sin parar
Son malos pensamientos muy, muy dentro de mí Nena, son malos pensamientos libéralos de mí libéralos de mí
Malheur À Celui Qui Blesse Un Enfant Composer(s): J. Demarny; Enrico Macias Performer(s): Enrico Macias
Il n'a pas de père, et il n'a pas de mère C'est le plus frondeur de tout l'orphelinat On cite en exemple son sale caractère Et on le punit car on ne l'aime pas
Qu'il soit un démon, qu'il soit noir ou blanc Il a le cur pur, il est toute innocence Qu'il soit né d'amour, ou par accident Malheur à celui qui blesse un enfant
Il vole au marché, un gâteau, une orange Et on le poursuit, il faut le rattraper On donne l'alerte, on arrête un ange Et pour se défendre il se met à pleurer
Qu'il soit un démon, qu'il soit noir ou blanc Il a le cur pur, il est toute innocence Qu'il soit né d'amour, ou par accident Malheur à celui qui blesse un enfant
Il est émigré d'un pays de misère Et dans une école il apprend à parler Son accent fait rire, il ne peut rien faire Sans qu'on lui reproche d'être un étranger
Liverpool Lou Composer(s): Dominic Behan Performer(s): The Irish Rovers; The Scaffold
Oh Liverpool Lou lovely Liverpool Lou Why can't you behave just like other girls do Why must my poor heart keep following you Stay home and love me my Liverpool Lou
When I go out walking, I hear people talking School children playing, I know what their saying Their saying you're grieve me That you will deceive me Some morning you'll leave me All packed up and gone
Oh Liverpool Lou lovely Liverpool Lou Why can't you behave just like other girls do Why must my poor heart keep following you Stay home and love me my Liverpool Lou
The sounds from river keep telling me ever That I should forget you, like I've never met you Oh tell me their song love Was never more wrong love Say I belong love to my Liverpool Lou

I've had another time to think about Your kind of loving that I'd live without So once we get together I'm gonna stay forever I've missed you so you'll never know
Hello, hello (Hello, hello) I want to make it perfectly clear I'm gonna have a great time here, now I'm home
Hello, hello (Hello, hello) It's good to feel you under my feet There's somebody I've come to meet Now I'm home
Máldito Gato Composer(s): J.M. Gallardo Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
A dónde fue a parar mi comida si estaba puesta aquí en la cocina y al darme media vuelta no está maldito gato, maldito gato Has roto por jugar mi camisa el día que tenía más prisa y encima aún te ríes de mi maldito gato, maldito gato Si invito a cenar a una dama y la quiero conquistar te pones a dormir, egoísta en mi único sofá Maldito gato, maldito gato maldito gato, maldito gato Un día quiero hablar contigo seriamente a ver si hago de ti un gato más decente Si no me vengaré y te echaré de aquí y dime a dónde irás sin mi Maldito gato, maldito gato maldito gato, maldito gato Si no fuera porque con ella fui feliz y al irse te dejó conmigo y ahora eres tú la única razón que la podrá traer a mi Maldito gato, maldito gato maldito gato, maldito gato
