Love Me As Though There Were No Tomorrow
Composer(s): Harold Adamson - Jimmy McHugh
Performer(s): Malcolm Vaughan
and multiple other artists



Love me as though there were no tomorrow
Take me out of this world tonight
Take me, make me forget my sorrow
So when I wake tomorrow
I’ll know our love was right

Kiss me as though it were now or never
Teach me all that a heart should know
Love me as though there were no tomorrow
Oh my darling, love me, don’t ever let me go

Kiss me as though it were now or never
Teach me all that a heart should know
Love me as though there were no tomorrow
Oh my darling, love me, don’t ever let me go

Tu joues tu joues d'l'accordéon
Dans un bistro qui n'a plus d'nom
Tell'ment les gens sont habitués
À y danser à y danser
La comparsita
Que tu leur joues toutes les nuits
Pour un salair' qui fait pas d'bruit
Car ton métier c'est d'fair' danser
C'est d'fair' danser
Mister Giorgina
Que ton biniou brill' comm' le jour
Ou qu'il soit noir comm' les amours
Qui sur la piste s'en vont chercher
De quoi rêver de quoi danser
La comparsita
Toi tu t'en fous car ton métier
C'est d'faire danser mais pas d'penser
Fais ta série voilà ta vie
Voilà ta vie
Mister Giorgina

"ta vie... ma vie... leur vie..."

Un jour t'auras les cheveux blancs
Ceux qui vienn'nt tard qui vienn'nt sûr'ment
Tu te r'trouv'ras d'vant ton buffet
Pour y danser pour y danser
La comparsita
Que tu jouais dans un beuglant
Pour un salair' qu'a foutu le camp
Les autr's dansaient toi tu bouffais
Toi tu bouffais
Mister Giorgina
Alors avant qu'il n'soit trop tard
Planqu' ton magot dans ton placard
Les fourmis c'est fait pour bosser
Quand aux cigal's ell's vont danser
La comparsita
Car la musiqu' foutu métier
Ça chante ça gueul' ça fait rêver
Et ça s'envol' comm' les paroles
Comm' les paroles
Mister Giorgina

"ça s'envole? pas toujours...
... née de tango inconnu! ..."

Toi les frangin's qui vienn'nt guincher
Avant d'se fair' comparsiter
Tu les regardes avec tes doigts
T'as l'œil qui joue en do en fa
La comparsita
Au fond tout ça toi tu t'en fous
T'as qu'un copain c'est ton biniou
Tu joues Schubert mais c'est plus cher
Mais c'est plus cher
Mister Giorgina
Un piano c'est comm' l'horizon
Ça joue tout à l'horizontale
Toi ton piano et ses flonflons
Tu les fous à la verticale
Sur comparsita
Et dans la rue tes récitals
Des fois ça nous fait un peu mal
Avec ton Pleyel en sautoir
yel-en-sautoir
Mister Giorgina

"ça nous fait un peu mal... la Musique
fini ! la Musique! en l'an 2000 plus d'Musique
et pourtant, c'était beau... Jean Sébastien Bach? Tu connais?"

Gare À Toi... Gargantua
Composer(s): Frederic Botton
Performer(s): France Gall



De jour ou de nuit
Ton appétit est insatiable
Tu veux tout manger, tout dévorer
Même la table

Dès qu'on te parle de filles
Alors t'as les yeux qui brillent
Mais gare à toi Gargantua
Tu ne dois croquer que moi

Comme un connaisseur
T'avales des cœurs à la douzaine
Pour un fin gourmet
T'as un palais des plus modernes

Les oiseaux dans ton gosier
Sont toujours sur canapé
Mais gare à toi Gargantua
Tu ne dois croquer que moi

N'as-tu pas peur d'attraper une indigestion
À engloutir tant de chair fraîche ce c'est pas bon
Attention à ton diabète
Il faudrait te mettre à la diète

Ce soir pour dîner je n'ai pas acheté grand chose
Ton plat préféré sera couché parmi les roses
Et prends-en bien à ta faim
Pour ce soir et pour demain

Mais gare à toi Gargantua
Car si tu n'en mange pas
Il se peut qu'à tout jamais
C'est moi qui te croquerai

Love Me All The Time
Composer(s): Wm. K. Wells - Hal R. Dyson



Wonderful girl my precious pearl 
You are the world to me 
Were we to part 
't would break my heart 
So listen to my plea

I worry dear worry in fear 
Some day your love may wane
Say dear that you, e'er will be true 
Tell me oh tell me again

Sweet heart of mine please love me all of the time 
Deep in your dear heart enshrine 
a loving destiny my own for me my dearie
Honey you know I love you I love you so 
Thats why I want you want you with love undying 
Can't you hear my heart sighing 
When I am blue the hours I spent with you 
are like a rosary of love to me
divine dear heart of mine 
don't fill my poor heart with pain 
Don't say I'm pleading in vain 
Oh dearie love me love me love me all the time

Mister And Mississippi
Composer(s): Irving Gordon
Performer(s): Tennessee Ernie Ford
and various other artists



I can't recall my Mother, I don't remember Dad
Mister and Mississippi was all I ever had
Oh, I was born to wander, oh, I was born to roam
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

Oh, I was born to wander, oh, I was born to roam
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

My cradle was the river, my school a river boat
My teacher was a gambler, the slickest one afloat
My teacher was a gambler, the slickest one afloat
He taught me not to gamble on a petticoat

Oh, I was born to wander, oh, I was born to roam
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

Oh! Betty Mae, I love you, I love you Betty Mae
I love you like a barefoot boy, loves a summer day
The way a wand'ring gypsy, loves the changing scenes
Just like the restless river, loves old New Orleans

Oh, I was born to wander, oh, I was born to roam
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

I'd love a tiny village, a quite country town
A house, a little garden, with kiddies runnin' 'round
I'd be a faithful husband, I'd be a trusting friend
Until I heard that steamboat, comin' 'round the bend

Oh, I was born to wander, oh, I was born to roam
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

Gardez Vos Filles
Composer(s): Joël Holmes; Georges Moustaki
Performer(s): Georges Moustaki



Gardez vos filles!

Ce n'est pas moi qui vais vous les prendre
Gardez vos filles!
Elles ont le cœur beaucoup trop tendre
J'aurais trop peur de les blesser
Avec mes mauvaises manières
Je n'oserais pas les enlacer
De peur qu'elles cassent comme du verre
Gardez vos filles!
Leur bonne tenue me rend timide
Gardez vos filles!
Elles ont trop l'air d'être en visite
Enrubannées dans leurs dentelles
Capitonnées dans leurs velours
Comment voulez-vous que l'amour
Puisse aller jusqu'à elles?

Je ne sais pas faire la révérence
Ni les baisemains ni les yeux doux
Je ne sais pas me mettre à genoux
J'ignore tout de la bienséance
Prenez-moi comme il faut me prendre
Ou ne me prenez pas du tout
Mais laissez-moi vivre à mon goût 
Un cœur se donne à bouche gourmande

Gardez vos filles
Bien à l'abri de ma bohème!
Gardez vos filles!
Protégez-les de mes "Je t'aime"
Je ne suis pas
Prince charmant
Et ça les ferait faire la grimace
Des comme moi qui trop embrasse
Qui trop embrasse et trop souvent
Gardez vos filles
Mais laissez-moi parmi les autres
Rien qu'une fille
Qui ne ressemble pas aux vôtres
A qui offrir
Toutes mes richesses
Mes rêves
De monts et de merveilles
Et lui faire une place au soleil
De ma tendresse

Love Me Again
Composer(s): Gold
Performer(s): Sunny Gale; Pat Terry; Alma Cogan



Love me again, hold me close to your heart
Love me again as you did at the start
I need you more every day we're apart
Say that you love me again

Open your arms, let me hold you once more
Let me be close to the lips I adore
Tell me that things will be just as before
Say that you love me again

If I've been seen with a smile on my face
Even though we have drifted apart
Don't be misled by the smile on my face
You would find there are tears in my heart

So, don't let the tears that I cry be in vain
Whether the future brings pleasure or pain
Long as I'm near you, I'll never complain
So love me, love me again

Don't let the tears that I cry be in vain
Whether the future brings pleasure or pain
Long as I'm near you, I'll never complain
So love me, love me again

Mistakes
Composer(s): Horatio Nicholls; Edgar Leslie
Performer(s): The Five Keys
and various other artists



I told you lies, I was unwise
You let me know, I let you go
Why not be friends, I'll make amends
If you will just forgive me

We make mistakes when we worry
All over nothing at all
We make mistakes that bring heartaches
And the teardrops fall like raindrops

We make mistakes and feel sorry
When we've made someone blue
But I made the greatest mistake of all
When I said "Goodbye" to you

Though my neglect cost your respect
Must I in vain, seek it again
We've passed the worst, were things reversed
I'd be the first to help you

We make mistakes when we worry
All over nothing at all
We make mistakes that bring heartaches
And the teardrops fall like raindrops

We make mistakes and feel sorry
When we've made someone blue
But I made the greatest mistake of all
When I said "Goodbye" to you

Garden Song
Composer(s): David Mallett
Performer(s): Peter, Paul & Mary;
and various other artists



Chorus:
Inch by inch, row by row, gonna make this garden grow
All it takes is a rake and a hoe and a piece of fertile ground
Inch by inch, row by row Someone bless these seeds I sow
Someone warm them from below 
Til the rain comes tumbling down 

Pullin' weeds and pickin' stones, 
we are made of dreams and bones
I feel the need to grow my own cause the time is close at hand
Grain for grain, sun and rain I'll find my way in nature's chain
Tune my body and my brain to the music of the land 

Chorus 

Plant your rows straight and long, 
Temper them with prayer and song
Mother earth will keep you strong if you give her love and care
An old crow watching hungrily from his perch in yonder tree
In my garden I'm as free as that feathered thief up there 

Chorus

Love Me A Lot
((Spanish Version: Quiéreme Mucho (Connie Francis))
Performer(s): Linda Ronstadt



Love me a lot
Sweet love of mine
How loving you are
I will always adore you

With your kisses
And your caresses
My sufferings cease to speak

When you are truly in love
As I am with you
It is impossible, my heaven
To live so far apart

Mistakes
Composer(s): Richard Feldman
Performer(s): Spencer Davis



People tell me, boy you're crazy
Some people say that I'm nuts
For trying to get back together with you baby
They say that once is enough

I should never have left you 'cause now I need you
Sometimes it happens that way
I come back like a fool who's believing
No matter what they might say

I don't want to hear another word
Don't need your well thought out advice
Though I thank you all for being kind
I can make mistakes myself just fine

I've got a good friend who knows my trouble
he thinks I'm wasting my time
He said go out and have some fun she's not the only one
But I can't leave her behind

So, I don't want to hear another word
Don't need your well thought out advice
Though I thank you all for being kind
I can make mistakes myself just fine

Garden Party
Composer(s): Rick Nelson
Performer(s): Rick Nelson;
and various other artists



I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories and play our songs again
When I got to the garden party, they all knew my name
No one recognized me, I didn't look the same 

Chorus
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well
You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself 

People came from miles around, everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus, there was magic in the air
Over in the corner, much to my surprise
Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan's shoes wearing his disguise 

Chorus

Played them all the old songs, thought that's why they came
No one heard the music, we didn't look the same
I said hello to "Mary Lou", she belongs to me
When I sang a song about a honky-tonk, it was time to leave 

Chorus

Someone opened up a closet door and out stepped Johnny B. Goode
Playing guitar like a-ringin' a bell and lookin' like he should
If you gotta play at garden parties, I wish you a lotta luck
But if memories were all I sang, I rather drive a truck 

Chorus

'n' it's all right now, learned my lesson well
You see, ya can't please everyone

So you got to please yourself

The way that I love you
Well, love me, love me

Oh baby love me
Baby love me true

Missouri Waltz
Composer(s): Frederick Knight Logan; James Royce Shannon
Performer(s): Glenn Miller
and various other artists



"Hush-a-bye m'baby, slumber time is comin' soon 
rest your head upon my breast while Mammy hums a tune 
the sandman is callin' where shadows are fallin' 
while the soft breezes sigh as in days long gone by!" 

Way down in Missouri, where I heard this melody 
when I was a little boy upon my Mammy's knee 
the old-folks were hummin' and the banjos were strummin' 
so sweet and low! 

Strum, strum, strum, strum strum! 
Seems I hear those banjos playin' once again 
Hmmm, hum, hmmm! 
That same old plaintive phrase! 

Way down in Missouri, where I heard this melody 
when I was a little boy upon my Mammy's knee 
the old-folks were hummin' and the banjos were strummin' 
so sweet and low!

Garden Of Serenity

Performer(s): The Ramones



Come on take my hand come on little stranger
The spirits are angry stay away from danger
This is insanity this could be the end
This is insanity farewell my friend

In the garden of serenity in the garden of serenity
In the garden of serenity in the garden of serenity

Meet me in the graveyard we'll walk among the dead
On a midnight odyssey riding in my head

I'm not your enemy girl, i'm your friend
Come with me on a journey on a journey to the end

In the garden of serenity in the garden of serenity
In the garden of serenity in the garden of serenity

Love Makes You Crazy
Composer(s): Mike Batt
Performer(s): Mike Batt



I was reading in a history book before the seventh war

They used to have a thing that they called love
that we don't have any more
I don't know the feeling
but I'm told it was an evil thing

It used to make you crazy and fall down
no one knows what it could bring
Loves makes you crazy
loves makes you cry
Love made them crazy in days gone by
Loves makes you crazy - that's what they say
Loves made them crazy in the olden days
I must have seized the body and the mind like strong disease

Another plague that science has erased even from the memory
Or maybe evolution wiped it out
so just the strong survived
And no-one with that feeling could exist
in the race to stay alive
Love makes you crazy
love makes you cry ...
Love makes you crazy
love makes you cry ...

Mississippi Squirrel Revival
Composer(s): C.W. Kalb, Jr. - Carlene Kalb
Performer(s): Ray Stevens
and multiple other artists



Well, when I was a kid I'd take a trip
Ev'ry summer down to Mississipp
To visit my granny in her antebellum world
I'd run barefooted all day long
Climbin' trees free as a song
And one day I happened to catch myself a squirrel
Well, I stuffed him down in an old shoe box
Punched a couple of holes in the top
And when Sunday came, I snuck him into Church
I was sittin' way back in the very last pew
Showin' him to my good buddy, Hugh
When that squirrel got loose and went totally berserk
Well, what happened next is hard to tell
Some thought it was heaven, others thought it was hell
But the fact that somethin' was among us was plain to see
As the choir sang "I Surrender All"
The squirrel ran up Harv Newlan's coveralls
Harv leaped to his feet and said
"Somethin's got a hold on me", Yeow!!
The day the squirrel went berserk
In the First Self-Righteous Church
In that sleepy little town of Pascagoula
It was a fight for survival that broke out in revival
They were jumpin' pews and shoutin' Hallelujah!
Well, Harv hit the aisles dancin' and screamin'
Some thought he had religion, others thought he had a demon
And Harv thought he had a weed eater loose in his Fruit-Of-The-Looms
He fell to his knees to plead and beg
And the squirrel ran out of his britches leg
Unobserved, to the other side of the room
All the way down to the amen pew
Where sat Sister Bertha better-than-you
Who'd been watchin' all the commotion with sadistic glee
But you should've seen the look in her eyes
When that squirrel jumped her garters and crossed her thighs
She jumped to her feet and said "Lord have mercy on me"
As the squirrel made laps inside her dress
She began to cry and then to confess
To sins that would make a sailor blush with shame
She told of gossip and church dissension
But the thing that got the most attention
Was when she talked about her love life
And then she started naming names
The day the squirrel went berserk
In the First Self-Righteous Church
In that sleepy little town of Pascagoula
It was a fight for survival that broke out in revival
They were jumpin' pews and shoutin' Hallelujah!
Well seven deacons and the pastor got saved
And twenty-five thousand dollars got raised
And fifty volunteered for missions in the Congo on the spot
And even without an invitation
There were at least five hundred rededications
And we all got baptized, whether we needed it or not
Now you've heard the bible story I guess
How he parted the waters for Moses to pass
Oh, the miracles God has brought to this old world
But the one I'll remember 'til my dyin' day
Is how he put that Church back on the narrow way
With a half crazed Mississippi squirrel
The day the squirrel went berserk
In the First Self-Righteous Church
In that sleepy little town of Pascagoula
It was a fight for survival that broke out in revival
They was jumpin' pews and shoutin' Hallelujah!
The day the squirrel went berserk
In the First Self-Righteous Church
In that sleepy little town of Pascagoula
It was a fight for survival that broke out in revival
They was jumpin' pews and...

Garden Of Peace
Composer(s): Dewey Bunnell; Gerry Beckley
Performer(s): America



I look inside at the scarlet room 
Places to hide in the dusty gloom 
A noisy clock and a silver spoon 

A china cup on the mantlepiece 
Gathering dust as it did in the east 
And just outside lies the garden of peace 

Oh, tell me is this really true 
Can it be, peace has come to me and you 
Tell me over, over and over 
Tell me is this really happening 

Inside this world it's beautiful 
Peace in this garden has come true 

A mirror pond reflects the dawn 
Over the banks, 'cross the emerald lawn 
A breeze has come and I'm carried along 

So follow the path through the knowing trees 
And each time you laugh, it is love you release 
That love will come back in the garden of peace 

So, tell me is this really true 
Can it be, peace has come to me and you 
Tell me over, over and over 
Tell me is this really happening 

Inside this world it's beautiful 
Peace in the garden has come true 

Oh, tell me is this really true 
Can it be, peace has come to me and you 
Tell me over, over and over 
Tell me is this really happening 

Inside this world it's beautiful 
Peace in the garden has come true ...

Love makes the world go round
Love makes the world go round
Somebody soon will love you
If no one loves you now
High in some silent sky
Love sings a silver song
Making the Earth whirl softly
Love makes the world go round

High in some silent sky
Love sings a silver song
Making the Earth whirl softly
Love makes the world go round

Making the Earth whirl softly
Love makes the world go round

Mississippi River Queen
Composer(s): David Allan Coe
Performer(s): David Allan Coe



Hey, California you don't know me
New York City you can't show me
Anything I haven't seen at least a hundred times before
I still love you, New Orleans, Mississippi River Queen
'Cause when it comes to loving you beat all I've ever seen!

And I've seen a lot of ladies in my time
I've had me a few women that were fine
Ah, but I don't need no city woman messing with my mind
So goodbye San Francisco girl, I'm leaving you behind

And I've had some Senoritas down in Mexico
I met a few potatoes up in Idaho
I've had a few Peaches in Georgia and that San Antoine Rose
If the Good Lord made any better
That you He's the only one who knows
