No digas más Que en estos días te has cansado ya de mí No digas más Que ya mi amor tú no lo puedes resistir Te quiero mucho, te quiero mucho Te quiero mucho, corazón Si tú te vas Yo no podría nunca, nunca ser feliz Si tú te vas Te llevarías mi alegría junto a ti Te quiero mucho, te quiero mucho Te quiero mucho, corazón Tú te tienes que quedar No me debes olvidar No lo pienses, no lo pienses No lo pienses más Que más te da Vivir conmigo solamente un poco más Puedes probar Y si después no te convenzo ya te vas Te quiero mucho, te quiero mucho Te quiero mucho, corazón
My City Was Gone Composer(s): Chrissie Hynde Performer(s): The Pretenders
I went back to Ohio But my city was gone There was no train station There was no downtown South Howard had disappeared All my favorite places My city had been pulled down Reduced to parking spaces A, O, Oh way to go Ohio
Well I went back to Ohio But my family was gone I stood on the back porch There was nobody home I was stunned and amazed My childhood memories Slowly swirled past Like the wind through the trees A, O, Oh way to go Ohio
I went back to Ohio But my pretty countryside Had been paved down the middle By a Government that had no pride The farms of Ohio Had been replaced by shopping malls And Muzak filled the air From Seneca to Cuyahoga Falls Said, A, O, Oh way to go Ohio

Good day sunshine Good day sunshine Good day sunshine
I need to laugh, and when the sun is out I've got something I can laugh about I feel good, in a special way I'm in love and it's a sunny day
Good day sunshine Good day sunshine Good day sunshine
We take a walk, the sun is shining down Burns my feet as they touch the ground
Good day sunshine Good day sunshine Good day sunshine
Then we lie beneath a shady tree I love her and she's loving me She feels good, she know she's looking fine I'm so proud to know that she is mine
Good day sunshine Good day sunshine Good day sunshine Good day sunshine
Te Quiero Morena Composer(s): José Serrano Performer(s): Plácido Domingo
"El trust de los Tenorios" Te quiero, Morena, te quiero como se quiere la gloria como se quiere el dinero como se quiere a una madre te quiero

My Cherie Amour Composer(s): Henry Cosby; Sylvia Moy; Stevie Wonder Originally performed by: Stevie Wonder Covered by various other artists
La la la la la la La la la la la la
My Cherie Amour, lovely as a summer's day My Cherie Amour, distant as the Milky Way My Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore You're the only girl my heart beats for How I wish that you were mine
In a cafe or sometimes on a crowded street I've been near you, but you never notice me My Cherie Amour, won't you tell me how could you ignore That behind that little smile I wore How I wish that you were mine
Maybe someday you'll see my face among the crowd Maybe someday I'll share your little distant cloud Oh, Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore You're the only girl my heart beats for How I wish that you were mine
Good Clean Fun Composer(s): Michael Nesmith Performer(s): The Monkees; Last Train Home
There's a smile on the wind as it touches my face And starts to erase all the gloom And the sun with a kiss, begins to dismiss the Memory of my life without you Well it seems like yesterday that my path took me away Although I know it's been at least a year But now my path heads home And your patient time alone Has brought me even closer to you, dear
And this plane gets closer Every minute I look down to a watch that keeps looking back at me And it says to me, "Be patient son you've waited this long" How can I be strong?
And this the plane gets closer Every minute I look down to watch that keeps looking back at me And it says to me, "Be patient son you've waited this long" How can I be strong?
Well the plane is finally down And the engines stopped their sound And I look in the crowd and there you stand And the gap that once was time Is forever closed behind I told you I'd come back and here I am...
Te Quiero Dijiste ((English Version: Magic Is The Moonlight (Cliff Richard) - 1965)) Composer(s): María Grever First release by: Cliff Richard and The Shadows Covered by multiple other artists
Te quiero, dijiste tomando mis manos entre tus manitas de blanco marfil Y sentí en mi pecho un fuerte latido después un suspiro y luego el chasquido de un beso febril
Muñequita linda de cabellos de oro de dientes de perla, labios de rubí Dime si me quieres cómo yo te quiero si de mí te acuerdas como yo de ti
Y a veces escucho un eco divino que envuelto en la brisa parece decir Sí te quiero mucho, mucho, mucho, mucho tanto como entonces siempre hasta morir
My Canary Has Circles Under His Eyes
Composer(s): Ted Kohler; Eddie Pola; Jack Golden
Performer(s): Debroy Somers & His Orch. - 1930
and multiple other artists
Mister Press Man, here's some news
You can print it if you choose
Just to show that times have changed a lot
Though it may sound strange to you
It is absolutely true
You can believe it.......or not
Since making whoopee became all the rage
It's even got into the old birdcage
My canary has circles under his eyes
He used to whistle 'The Prisoner's Song'
Now he does snake-hips the whole day long
My canary has circles under his eyes
His only pals are the Meadow Lark
And just a tiny sparrow
But I am afraid when he's in the park
He leaves the straight and narrow
I raised this bird in a manner so strict
Now I feel certain I'm being tricked
My canary has circles under his eyes
His only pals are the Meadow Lark
And just a tiny sparrow
But I am afraid when he's in the park
He leaves the straight and narrow
I raised this bird in a manner so strict
Now I feel certain I'm being tricked
My canary has circles under his eyes
My canary has circles under his eyes
Good Christian Soldier Composer(s): Bobby Bare; Billy Joe Shaver Performer(s): Kris Kristofferson; Bobby Bare
Not so long ago in Oklahoma The son of an Okie preacher knelt to pray He said Lord I wanna be a Christian soldier just like you And fight to build a new and better day
Now many years and miles from Oklahoma That same young Okie boy still kneels to pray But he don't pray to be no Christian soldier anymore He just prays to make it through another day
Cause it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry But we're playin' cards writin' home havin' lots of fun Telling jokes and learning how to die
Now the things I've come to know seem so confusin' It's gettin' hard to tell what's wrong from right I can't seperate the winners from the losers anymore And I'm thinking of just giving up the fight
Cause it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry But we're playin' cards writin' home ain't we hadn't fun Turning on and learning how to die
My Cairo Maid Composer(s): Bud De Sylva; G. Foster; Chris Schonberg
Dreaming, I am always dreaming When the stars are gleaming, of my Cairo maid I believe she wants me For her mem'ry haunts me I sit and pine till skies are graying, saying
Smiling, I can see her smiling in her way beguiling, as the shadows fall For the moon above her Tells her that I love her And will return o'er desert, swinging, singing
I know a maid in Cairo In dreamy Cairo, beside the Nile I know she's yearning, her heart is burning for my returning so, for a while, I'll travel upon my camel o'er scorching gravel unto my shrine Which means, that I'll go to dreamy Cairo and make this Cairo maiden mine
Good Captain Clack Composer(s): Gary Brooker; Keith Reid Performer(s): Procol Harum
Still scowling black good Captain Clack must eat his humble pie His bed is made the colours fade his eyes once wet are dry
The naked muse who sits and chews tobacco off a tree removes his shoes gives way to booze and searches endlessly
See the naked jumberlack sip his aphrodisiac Cotton-picking farmers three Though I lost my weather vane and of sense I have one grain I'm content sipping lemon tea
"Ah, pero no: la vida es una cosa tan llena de salud maravillosa es un regalo de placer tan fiero es un juego tan útil, tan demente que ya he vuelto a creer absurdamente porque dijiste nada más: te quiero" -Carilda Oliver Labra-
Te quiero así, de pronto así de tonto... pero te quiero Te quiero así de claro así de raro... pero te quiero Te quiero así de burdo así de absurdo... pero te quiero Pero esta noche tristeza obliga más que a la amante quiero a la amiga Más que tu pan, quiero tu miga
Good Bye, Rose Composer(s): Herbet Ingraham; Addison Burkhart
Once a bird loved a rose Chirp'd despondently "Oh! My love From above Your fading blush I see But I cannot linger here Winter's blasts are near Lovely flower, from your bower I must fly I fear Oh, Dear!
With the Springtime's sunny garb Came the love sick bird To the tree anxiously But still no welcome heard For the rose sighed in vain Cried till winter's snows Half in pity Froze the pretty Broken hearted rose he chose
Good bye Rose, the Autumn leaves are falling Winter blows her trumpets from the sky When the snows shall melt at Springtime's calling We will meet again Some day so good bye Rose
Pour te prouver mon amour que veux-tu que je te donne? Je te donnerai mes jours chaque instant de ma personne Je te donnerai mes jours mes printemps et mes automnes mon cur, légèrement cur lourd pour te prouver mon amour
Pour te prouver, mon ami pour te prouver que je t'aime je te donnerai mes nuits chaque instant de mes poèmes Je te donnerai mes nuits et le bonheur pour étrennes pour te prouver, mon ami que je t'aime à la folie
Pour te prouver ma folie que veux-tu que je te donne? Je te donnerai ma vie sans regret je l'abandonne Je te donnerai ma vie avec une joie sans bornes si vraiment ça te suffit à te prouver ma folie
Quand je t'aurai tout donné quand j'aurai vidé mes poches je pourrai enfin t'aimer d'un amour sans anicroches Nous pourrons nous adorer mais ton appétit féroce n'aura plus rien à croquer quand je t'aurai tout donné
Pour te prouver mon amour là vraiment il y a maldonne J'ai donné mes nuits, mes jours et je n'ai plus rien en somme Tu m'as pris mes jours, mes nuits mon cur, mon corps sans vergogne Tu m'as pris jusqu'à l'envie de te prouver mon amour de te prouver mon amour
Self Portrait Composer(s): Richard Blackmore; Ronald Padavona First release by: Rainbow - 1975
Paint me a picture and hang it on the wall Cover it darkly, the lines must start to crawl Down, down, down Spin me around and around Draw me away to the night from the day Leave not a trace to be found Down, down
Nothing is real but the way that I feel And I feel like going down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down, down
Paint me a picture of eyes that never see With flashes of lightning that burn for only me
Hey hey hey There's only the devil to pay I'm ready to go Pull me down from below Give me a place I can lay
Hey hey Nothing is real but the way that I feel I feel like going down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down
Hey hey Nothing is real but the way that I feel And I feel like going down Down, down
Nothing is real but the way that I feel And I feel like going down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down Down
Good Biscuits Composer(s): Memphis Minnie Performer(s): Memphis Minnie
Listen to my song, ladies, please take strictly understand Listen to my song, ladies, please take strictly understand Don't let no outside woman make no biscuits for your man
I'm going to give you all the lowdown, lowdown if I can I'm going to give you all the lowdown, lowdown if I can Why I'm a single woman today by letting other women feed my man
So the next daddy I get, I'm going to take him to the restaurant So the next daddy I get, I'm going to take him to the restaurant Ain't gonna have him going around eating biscuits, whoo, whoo, made up with your nasty hands
I just found out how come I can't keep a man I just found out how come I can't keep a man I don't get no one buddy, I have too many a-doggone friends
You don't mean me no good, just a grin when I come in You don't mean me no good, just a grin when I come in But if I catch you feeding my man, whoo, whoo, Lord, I'm going to the pen
Te Perdre Composer(s): Claude Moine - Pierre Papadiamandis Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell
Aide-moi à t'aider Fais pas semblant d'essayer d'essayer Je n'ai ni Dieu ni Maître J'sais plus rêver Il ne me reste qu'une peur Te perdre Aime comme je veux t'aimer Si j'peux entendre alors je rêve D'écouter maintenant Tu sais je n'ai qu'une peur Te perdre, te perdre Vieillir en solitaire Perdre, te perdre Et pourtant t'es pas unique sur terre Je joue pas j'suis sincère Si j'me r'refais pas j'te perd Cherche pas à trouver Tous ces mots si durs à cicatriser Fais pas semblant de tenter pour tenter Une seule chose me blesse Te perdre Juste pour m'éprouver Si tu me regardes alors je reste Peut-être mieux vouloir c'est vrai Je n'ai qu'une peur te perdre Te perdre Et vivre en solitaire Perdre, te perdre Et pourtant t'es pas unique sur terre Oh, je joue pas j'suis sincère Si j'me r'refais pas j'te perd Perdre, te perdre Vieillir en solitaire Perdre, te perdre Et pourtant t'es pas unique sur terre Perdre... Perdre... Et pourtant t'es pas unique sur terre...
