This Land Is Your Land ((French Version: Ce Coin De Terre (Dalida) - 1964)) Composer(s): Woody Guthrie First recording: Woody Guthrie - 1944 Covered by multiple other artists
This land is your land, this land is my land From California, to the New York Island From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters This land was made for you and me
As I was walking a ribbon of highway I saw above me an endless skyway I saw below me a golden valley This land was made for you and me
This land is your land, this land is my land From California, to the New York Island From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters This land was made for you and me
I've roamed and rambled and I've followed my footsteps To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts And all around me a voice was sounding This land was made for you and me
This land is your land, this land is my land From California, to the New York Island From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters This land was made for you and me
The sun comes shining as I was strolling The wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling The fog was lifting a voice come chanting This land was made for you and me
This land is your land, this land is my land From California, to the New York Island From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters This land was made for you and me As I was walkin' - I saw a sign there And that sign said - no tress passin' But on the other side .... it didn't say nothin! Now that side was made for you and me!
This land is your land, this land is my land From California, to the New York Island From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters This land was made for you and me
In the squares of the city - In the shadow of the steeple Near the relief office - I see my people And some are grumblin' and some are wonderin' If this land's still made for you and me
This land is your land, this land is my land From California, to the New York Island From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters This land was made for you and me
This land is your land, this land is my land From California, to the New York Island From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters This land was made for you and me
Gimme That Wine Composer(s): Jon Hendricks Performer(s): Blood, Sweat & Tears; and various other artists
Well my wife got tired of me running 'round, so she tried to keep me home She hid my clothes, She broke my nose But I continued to roam. Then she finally hit my weak spot - when she threw my bottle out Well, from the basement to the rooftop, everybody could hear me shout...
Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) 'Cause I can't cut loose without my juice (Got to have my hot Lucy when I go out walking sometimes)
One day crossin the avenue, a big car knocked me down. I was stretched out tying up traffic and crowds came from blocks around While the police were searchin my pockets, before they sent me to the funeral parlour, One of those cops touched my bottle, Jack, I jumped straight up and commenced to hollar
Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) I just can't get well without Muskatel
One real dark and dreary night while I was staggering home to bed,y'all A bandit jumped from the shadows and put a blackjack 'side my head. That cat took my watch, my ring, my money, and I didn't even make a sound, But when he reached up and got my bottle, you could hear me for blocks around
Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Beat my head outta shape, but don't touch my grape
One day my house caught fire while I was laying down sleeping off a nap And when I woke up everything was burning with a pop and a crackle and a snap. Well the fireman broke up my TV set and they tore my apartment apart, But when he raised that axe to my bottle, Jack, I just cried with all my heart...
I said gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) I'll just have one toast before I roast
Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Nothing but the best for me
Wine (Gimme that wine) Just gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) I just can't get well without Muskatel I got to have some of that brew
Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) Gimme that wine (Gimme that wine) .......

De Morgen
Composer(s): Boudewijn de Groot - Lennaert H. Nijgh
Performer(s): Boudewijn de Groot
De dag komt, liefste, de dag De zon door de gordijnen, dromen die verdwijnen Ik weet dat je niet blijven mag
Word wakker, liefste, 't is licht Je haren op het kussen, je mond en daartussen De schaduwen op je gezicht
Tot morgen, liefste, misschien Nu zachtjes naar beneden, niet kraken met de treden Mijn hospes mag jou niet zien
Want hij en alle and'ren, liefste, proberen telkens weer Om ons te veranderen in een dame en een heer Die altijd netjes blijven, liefste, en nooit gevaarlijk doen Zich nooit door hartstocht laten drijven, liefste, behalve soms een zoen
Toch gaan we, liefste, onze gang Als ik kon dan trouw ik met je, want dat wou ik Dat weet je toch, al sinds zo lang
Ook zonder dat, liefste, ook dan Kan ik van je houden, zonder je te trouwen Ben jij mijn vrouw en ik je man
De liefde, liefste, is sterk Sterker dan de mensen die alles netjes wensen Met door de week de zaak en zondags kerk
Ik doe de ramen open, liefste, de straat is leeg en stil Ik zie je buiten lopen, liefste, ons bed is leeg en kil Nu je weg bent zal ik dromen, liefste, van wat ik moest en zou Tot je terug zal komen, liefste, droom ik alleen van jou

Six heures du matin J'ouvre la station service Et là, j'vois passer au loin L'car de police Une fille dans une caisse J'veux pas d'chèque J'prends qu'les espèces Un sourire pour le service
Tache d'huile dans un plein d'essence Voilà à quoi ma vie r'ssemble Rock'n roll syndrome des villes Si t'étais pas là, j'serais qu'une tache d'huile
Tache d'huile dans un plein d'essence Mazout en réminiscence Rock'n roll fantôme des villes Si t'étais pas la, j'serais qu'une tache d'huilé
Ouh! V'la un loubard Doit être nouveau dans le métier Une recette ça se braque le soir Faudra repasser La fille dans la caisse L'attend, j'la vois qui balise Ils ont loupé leur western Hors-la-loi hors service

Morena dos olhos d'água Tira os seus olhos do mar Vem ver que a vida ainda vale O sorriso que eu tenho Pra lhe dar
Descansa um meu pobre peito Que jamais enfrenta o mar Mas que tem abraço estreito, morena Com jeito de lhe agradar Vem ouvir lindas histórias Que por seu amor sonhei Vem saber quantas vitórias, morena Por mares que só eu sei
O seu homem foi-se embora Prometendo voltar já Mas as ondas não tem hora, morena De partir ou de voltar Passa a vela e vai-se embora Passa o tempo e vai também Mas meu canto ainda lhe implora, morena Agora, morena, vem

Tables Séparées Composer(s): Alice Dona - Pascal Sevran - Claude Carmone Performer(s): Dalida
La porte s'ouvre tout à coup Et ma mémoire en prend un coup C'est toi qui entre Dans ce restaurant familier Où nous avons souvent caché nos dîners tendres je n'écoute plus mes amis j'allume comme un alibi Ma cigarette Je sais très bien que tu m'as vu Et maintenant je n'ose plus Tourner la tête
La fille qui est à ton bras A bien quinze ans de moins que toi Ça te rassure Je me souviens que tu riais Quand je disais que les regrets Ont la peau dure Un peu gêné tu me salues et tu demandes le menu D'une voix basse Nous qui avons tous partagé Nous voilà tables séparées Chacun sa place
je t'observe à la dérobée Tu n'as pas tellement changé Avec les femmes Tu ne fais pas dans le détail Quand tu sorts de ton éventail Le coup du charme Et je me croyais immunisé Je l'avais même imaginé ce face à face
Mes amis chantent et font les fous Comment leur dire que je m'en fous Que je suis lasse Quand l'amour s'écrit au passé Il ne reste à débarrasser Rien que deux tables séparées

Morena de Angola que leva o chocalho amarrado na canela Passando pelo regimento ela faz requebrar o sentinela

Morena de Angola que leva o chocalho amarrado na canela Será que ela mexe o chocalho ou o chocalho é que mexe com ela Será que ela tá caprichando no peixe que eu trouxe de Benguela Será que tá no remelexo e abandonou meu peixe na tigela
Será quando fica choca põe de quarentena o seu chocalho Será que depois ela bota a canela no nicho do pirralho
Morena de Angola que leva o chocalho amarrado na canela Eu acho que deixei um caho do meu coração na Catumbela
Morena de Angola que leva o chocalho amarrado na canela Morena, bichinha danada, minha camarada do MPLA

I don't remember what day it was I didn't notice what time it was All I know is that I fell in love with you And if all my dreams come true I'll be spending time with you
