De ton visage à mon village Y'a cette rivière qui coule toute l'année Entre tes yeux et les miens qui pleurent Y'a ce fleuve qui s'amuse à nous séparer
Faire un pont pour de bon, lui donner ton prénom Le traverser pour t'embrasser, faire un pont pour de bon
J'ai essayé de naviguer, perdant ton cur mais le tien chante si fort Entre nous deux et le monde entier Il n'y a qu'une rivière pour nous séparer
Faire un pont pour de bon, lui donner ton prénom Le traverser pour t'embrasser, faire un pont
Faire un pont pour de bon, lui donner ton prénom Le traverser pour t'embrasser, faire un pont pour de bon Faire un pont pour de bon, lui donner ton prénom Le traverser pour t'embrasser, faire un pont pour de bon Faire un pont pour de bon, lui donner ton prénom Le traverser pour t'embrasser, faire un pont
Give A Little Whistle Composer(s): Leigh Harline; Ned Washington Performer(s): Cliff "Ukelele Ike" Edwards; and various other artists
When you get in trouble and you don't know right from wrong Give a little whistle! Give a little whistle! When you meet temptation and the urge is very strong Give a little whistle! Give a little whistle!
Not just a little squeak, pucker up and blow And if your whistle's weak, yell, "Jiminy Cricket!" Right!
Take the straight and narrow path And if you start to slide Give a little whistle! Give a little whistle! And always let your conscience be your guide
Take Me Home Tonight Composer(s): Michael Leeson - Peter Vale Performer(s): Eddie Money; Every Avenue
I feel a hunger
It's a hunger that tries to keep a man awake at night Are you the answer? I shouldn't wonder when I feel you whet my appetite
With all the power you're releasing
It isn't safe to walk the city streets a Anticipation is running through me
Let's find the key and turn this engine on
I can feel you breathe I can feel your heartbeat faster Take me home tonight! I don't want to let you go till you see the light! Take me home tonight! Listen honey Just like Ronnie sang: Be my little baby!
I get frightened in all this darkness
I get nightmares I hate to sleep alone I need some company
A guardian angel to keep me warm when the cold winds blow!
I can feel you breathe I can feel your heartbeat faster ... Be my little baby!
Just like Ronnie sang I say just like Ronnie sang: Be my little baby baby my darling! I feel a hunger it's a hunger!
Take me home tonight! ... Take me home tonight! ... Take me home tonight! ...
Give A Little Love Composer(s): John Goodison; Phil Wainman Performer(s): Bay City Rollers
It's a teenage dream, to be seventeen And to find you're all wrapped up in love And I've found that you, made a dream come true Now I do believe in what they say
You've got to give a little love Take a little love Be prepared to forsake a little love And when the sun comes shining through We'll know what to do
Give a little love, take a little love Be prepared to forsake a little love And when the sun comes shining through We'll know what to do
When I walk with you, there is just we two And the world goes by but I just don't care And I know that one day, I'll find a way To be safe and sound within your heart So until I do
I'm gonna give a little love Take a little love Be prepared to forsake a little love And when the sun comes shining through We'll know what to do
Give a little love, take a little love Be prepared to forsake a little love And when the sun comes shining through We'll know what to do
Take Me Home Composer(s): Steve Kipner - John Capek - Mark Jordan Performer(s): Joe Cocker & Bekka Bramlett
Maybe we're standing on the threshold With our eyes open wide Let the river keep on flowing We can reach the other side Caught in this endless revolution Under helicopter skies To lose becomes unthinkable And to win is the only road now
There's a bridge over the water I can see it like a rainbow If you love me I'll be waiting Take me home to the other side
All the men and all the women Who sacrifice their love Never taste what we took for granted No they don't know love at all Some of them broken some of them wounded And so cynical from the pain I was quiet as a grave yard Till you heard me caling out your name
There's a bridge over the water I can see it like a rainbow If you love me I'll be waiting Take me home to the other side
Life was victorious Now it can't be denied We'll stand together Cause love is on our side
There's a bridge over the water I can see it like a rainbow If you love me I'll be waiting Take me home to the other side

Take Me Home Composer(s): Jim Capaldi - C. Thompson - A. Quinta Performer(s): Jim Capaldi
In an empty bed staring at the ceiling You need someone to love, show you understanding When you feel brokenhearted, looking for a way around it In the middle of a broken dream, open your eyes, never look back Happiness is something to be aiming at When you feel brokenhearted, looking for a way around it in the middle of a broken dream
Take me home, home to your heart Home to your body babe Take me in your arms, cover me up Take me home we're never meant to be alone How can I make you see, take a chance on me
There's no way out, nobody to turn to All you need is someone to the rescue When you feel brokenhearted looking for a way around it in the middle of a broken dream
Take me home, home to your heart Home to your body babe Take me in your arms, cover me up Take me home we're never meant to be alone How can I make you see, take a chance on me
Girl in this life we live There's so much we can share So much we can give
Take me home, home to your heart Home to your body babe Take me in your arms, cover me up Take me home we're never meant to be alone How can I make you see, take a chance on me
Take me home, home to your heart Home to your body babe Take me in your arms, cover me up Take me home we're never meant to be alone How can I make you see, take a chance on me
Mother's Not Dead, She's Only Sleeping Composer(s): Charlie Monroe Performer(s): Charlie Monroe; Roy Acuff; Vernon Oxford
I Left my old home way back in the mountains Mother was called to heaven that day They carried my mother up to the graveyard Ev'rything's lonesome since she went a-way
Chorus Mother's Not Dead, she's only a-sleeping Just patiently waiting for Jesus to come The birds will be singing while mother lies sleeping They will sing o'er her as the grave fades a-way
Nothing seems right around the old home place Even the place where we used to play I love my old home way back in the mountains But ev'rything's changed since she went away
Chorus
Mother was good and now she's in heaven She was the best pal a boy ever had I still love my home way back in the mountains But without you mother, a heart aches so sad

Take Me For What I'm Worth Composer(s): P.F. Sloan Performer(s): The Searchers; Mike Pender; P.F. Sloan
Don't try and understand me, you never could do that Ah, and in the end you'd wind up being hurt I'm a man with too many problems that keep pounding on my brain
So if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth (if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)
I don't pretend to be a saint, my sins they are many But there's no-one perfect in this universe And though you think I'm weird, don't try and change me dear
'cause if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth (if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)
Hear a howling wind outside my door, there's restlessness within Oh, I'm like a raincloud that one day may burst We both know I'll be leavin' and if one little tear you grieve
Ah, it's all right 'cause that's all I'm really worth (it's all right 'cause that's all I'm really worth)
And if you think about me in your lonesome hours Ah, and on your lips there's a sweet word and not a curse Ah, then I'll be comin' back one day when my wandering is over
Ah, if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth (if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth) Ah, if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth (if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)
Sie Kann Nimmermehr English Title: Mother's Little Helper Performer(s): Peter Schleicher (Originally performed by: The Rolling Stones)

Ach, bitte sehr, i brauch noch mehr und vor der Tür, da nimmt's gleich vier S'Leben is schwer, sie kann nimmermehr
Ach, die Männer san so bös sagt die Mutter ganz nervös Und es stört sie, wenn ma müd is und k.o. Niemals kriegn die Männer gnua Doch sie holt sich ihre Ruah nimmt a Pulver oder zwa die Befreiung, sie ist da S'Leben is schön seufzt sie entzückt wenn ihr Mann sie nachts beglückt

Take Me For A Little While Composer(s): Trade Martin First recording/First release by: Evie Sands - 1965/Jackie Ross - 1965 Covered by multiple other artists
I've been trying to make you love me But everything I try just takes you further from me You don't love me no no So you treat me cruel But no matter how you hurt me I'll always be a fool If you don't want me forever If you don't need me forever And if you don't love me forever Take me for a little while I've got to make you love me For a little while I've just got to make you want me I've got to stop it
There should be a law And no maatter how you put me down I love you more I feel so helpless And it ain't funny Cause deep down inside I know You're never gonna love me If you don't want me forever If you don't need me forever If you can't love me forever Take me for a little while I'm gonna make you love me For a llittle while I've got to make you want me Take me for a little while, baby Can't you see it's gonna be me Take me for a little while Take me for a little while I'm gonna tell you how I need you Tell me how I want you Take me for a little while
Mother's Little Helper German Title: Sie Kann Nimmermehr Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards Originally performed by: The Rolling Stones Covered by various other artists
What a drag it is getting old "Kids are different today" I hear ev'ry mother say Mother needs something today to calm her down And though she's not really ill There's a little yellow pill She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
"Things are different today" I hear ev'ry mother say Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper And two help her on her way, get her through her busy day
Doctor please, some more of these Outside the door, she took four more What a drag it is getting old
"Men just aren't the same today" I hear ev'ry mother say They just don't appreciate that you get tired They're so hard to satisfy, You can tranquilize your mind So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper And four help you through the night, help to minimize your plight
Doctor please, some more of these Outside the door, she took four more What a drag it is getting old
"Life's just much too hard today" I hear ev'ry mother say The pusuit of happiness just seems a bore And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day

Take Me For A Buggy Ride Performer(s): Bessie Smith
You're my man, you're so nice and brown, sweetest man in this town I heard you say you was goin' away, and leave me here to stay I feel like I could cry, and here's the reason why Daddy, you really knows your stuff when you take me for a buggy ride I like you when you got your habits on, you can shift your gear with so much pride I gets a funny feelin' when you gaze into my eyes You give me so much thrill, you make my thermometer rise I'm happy when you're by my side when you take me for a buggy ride Daddy, you're as sweet as you can be when you take me for a buggy ride When you set me down up on your knee, and ask me to be your bride When you hug and kiss me it makes me feel fine I gets this funny feelin' up and down my spine You don't need no teachin', you don't need no guide when you take me for a buggy ride Your lovin' ain't so forte in the park but you a lovin', poor creature in the dark You ain't so hot! What can it be that makes me say? "daddy, take all of me" You always ready ev'ry time that I call What I like about you, you never stall You ain't no preacher, you a good old soul You done sent salvation to my very soul I can't kick but I'm satisfied when you take me for a buggy ride
Got no time for foolin' with you baby Your stupid game is about to end You played it out Thought you had it made And it looks like someone passed you by again
I left her standin' in her corner She told me she was tryin' to find her way I've got to leave before I get much older 'Cause she ain't moved in nearly forty days
I've got a woman that's treatin' me better She takes her time and she ain't so cruel I've got someone to take you over Your mother ain't so bad What happened to you?
