    The Bannerman
    Composer(s): Roger Cook - Herbie Flowers - Roger Greenaway
    Performer(s): Blue Mink



    So we waved our hands as we marched along
    and the people smiled as we sang our song
    and the world was saved as they listened to the band
    and the Bannerman held the banner high

    he was ten feet tall and he touched the sky
    and I wish that I could be a Bannerman

    Glory
    Glory
    Glory

    listen to the band
    Sing the same old story
    ain't it something grang

    to be good as you can
    like a Bannerman!

    And the drums went Boom as the cornets play
    and the tuba 'umba''d' all the way
    and the kids and the dogs were laughing as they ran
    And the Bannerman held the banner high
    with an Allelujah in his eye
    and I wish that I could be a Bannerman

    Glory
    Glory
    Glory...

    So we reached the square on the top of the hill
    and the music stopped and we stood still
    and a few were saved and the people said
    Amen

    Then we all got up and we formed a queue
    and the drums went Bang as the trumpets blew
    and we marched back down into the town again

    Can I Forget You
    Composer(s): Jerome Kern; Oscar Hammerstein II
    Performer(s): Irene Dunne



    Soon you leave me
    This last night flying
    Pale stars are weeping
    Sad breezes sigh

    When you leave me
    Can love end with trying?
    Can love so living
    So quickly die?

    Refrain:

    Can I forget you?
    Or will my heart remind me
    That once we walked in a moonlight dream?

    Can I forget you
    Or will my heart remind me
    How sweet you made the moonlight seem

    Will the glory of your nearness fade
    As moonlight fades in a veil of rain?

    Can I forget you
    When every night reminds me
    How much I want you back again

    (repeat refrain)

    Fast Freight
    Composer(s): Terry Gilkyson
    Performer(s): The Kingston Trio;
    The Easy Riders; Tim Hardin; Serendipity Singers



    As I listen for the whistle, lie awake and wait
    Wish the railroad didn't run so near
    'Cause the rattle and clatter of that old fast freight
    keeps a-makin' music in my ear
    Go bum again
    Go bum again
    Oo

    [Chorus:]
    Hear the whistle blow
    Hear the whistle blow
    Clickety clack, clickety clack
    The wheels are saying to the railroad track
    Well, if you go, you can't come back
    If you go, you can't come back
    If you go, you can't come back

    Well, I wouldn't give a nickel for the bum I used to be
    work as hard as any man in town
    I got a purty gal
    She thinks the world of me
    Man would be a fool to let her down
    Go bum again
    Go bum again
    Oo

    [Chorus]

    So ev'ry night I listen, wonder if it's late
    In my dreams I'm ridin' on that train
    I feel my pulse a-beatin' with that old fast freight
    and thank the Lord I'm just a bum again
    Go bum again
    Go bum again
    Oo

    [Chorus]

    Down On The Banks Of The Ohio
    ((Finnish Version: Yksi Kasvoton (Lea Laven) - 1972))
    (Traditional)
    First release by: Ernest V. Stoneman - 1928
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I asked my love to take a walk
    To take a walk, just a little walk
    Down beside where the waters flow
    Down by the banks of the Ohio

    And only say that you'll be mine
    In no others' arms entwine
    Down beside where the waters flow
    Down by the banks of the Ohio

    I held a knife against his breast
    As into my arms he pressed
    He cried "my love, don't you murder me
    I'm not prepared for eternity"

    I wandered home 'tween twelve and one
    I cried, "My God, what have I done?"
    I've killed the only man I love
    He would not take me for his bride

    And only say that you'll be mine
    In no others' arms entwine
    Down beside where the waters flow
    Down by the banks of the Ohio

    Performer(s): Percy Faith
    and multiple other artists



    (Olé, a cangacheiro, you bandit from Brazil)
    (Olé, he is the bandit, the bandit from Brazil)

    I'm the quickest on the trigger
    When I shoot I shoot to kill
    I'm a hero down in Rio
    Where they talk about me still

    Once I robbed a big ranchero
    Who was rich beyond compare
    And to ransom held his daughter
    She was young and she was fair

    (Olé, a cangacheiro, you bandit from Brazil)
    (Olé, he is the bandit, the bandit from Brazil)

    She was sweet and she was tender
    There was lovelight in her eyes
    In my arms she soon surrendered
    Very much to my surprise

    I refused her father's ransom
    And I kept the greater prize
    Now at night we ride together
    'Neath the blue Brazilian sky

    Adios to you, Amigo, Adios to you, my friend
    Ole, O Cangacheiro, the Bandit of Brazil

    Maybe someday I'll be strong
    Maybe it won't be long
    I'll be the one who's tough
    You'll be the one who's got it rough
    It won't be long and
    Maybe I'll be real strong

    Maybe I'll do things right
    Maybe I'll start tonight
    You'll learn to cry like me
    Baby let's just wait and see
    Maybe I'll start tonight
    And do things right

    You'll control me
    Oh so boldly
    Rule me 'til I'm free
    'Til the pain that shakes me
    Finally makes me
    Get up off of my knees

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

    Maybe I'll be fast as you
    Maybe I'll break hearts too
    But, I think that you'll slow down
    When your turn to hurt comes around
    Maybe I'll break hearts
    And be as fast as you

    Uhhh

    You'll control me
    Oh so boldly
    Rule me 'til I'm free
    'Til the pain that shakes me
    Finally makes me
    Get up off of my knees

    Ahh, Sookie

    Maybe I'll be fast as you
    Maybe I'll break hearts too
    I think that you'll slow down
    When your turn to hurt comes around
    Maybe I'll break hearts
    And be as fast as you

    Casey would waltz with a strawberry blonde
    And the band played on!

    His brain was so loaded it nearly exploded
    The poor girl would shake with alarm!
    He'd ne'er leave the girl with the strawberry curl
    And the band played on!

    Aww, she didn't bat an eye
    As I packed my bags to leave
    I thought she would start to cry
    Or sit around my room and grieve
    But y'all, the girl, she fooled me this time
    She acted like I was the last thing on her mind
    I would like to start all over again
    Baby, can I change my mind
    I just wanna change my mind
    Baby, let me change my mind
    As I took those steps
    Toward that open door
    Knowing all the time
    Oh, Lord, I just didn't wanna go
    But she didn't give me no sign
    Nothing that would make me change my mind
    I would like to start all over again
    Baby, can I change my mind
    Please, please, please, baby
    I just wanna change my mind
    Oh, I played my games
    Many times before
    But peoples, let me tell y'all
    Oh, I never reached the door
    But ooh, the winds howl tonight
    I keep lookin' back but my baby's nowhere in sight
    I would like to start all over again
    Baby, can I change my mind
    Please, please, please, baby
    Baby, let me change my mind

    There's a brand new dance
    But I don't know it's name
    That people from bad homes
    Do again and again
    It's big and it's bland
    Full tension and fear
    They do it over there
    But we don't do it here

    Fashion - Turn to the left
    Fashion - Turn to the right
    We are the goon squad
    And we're coming to town
    Beep-beep - Beep-beep

    But it's not very clear
    That people from good homes

    Shout it while you're dancing
    On the -er dance floor

    She's an angel on her toes
    She thinks nobody knows what
    She's feeling

    She's always on the run
    She's got no time for no one

    Her laughs turns into cries
    For loves that passed her by
    What is this strong desire
    That keeps her reaching higher?

    Like a symphony in grace
    She will tune the empty space
    Like a lover, like a child
    She'll drive you wild

    She will dance - dance - dance
    Till her life is through
    She will dance - dance - dance
    Till there is no more
    And wht's it for?

    She's waltzing through the air
    She hasn't got a care or a worry

    Planted feet upon the ground
    She's neither lost or found

    Like a symphony in grace
    She will tune the empty space
    Like a lover, like a child
    She'll drive you wild

    She will dance - dance - dance
    Till her life is through
    She will dance - dance - dance
    Till there is no more
    And what's it for?

    (Fascination turned to love)

    It was fascination, I know
    And it might have ended right there at the start
    Just a passing glance, just a brief romance
    And I might have gone on my way empty-hearted

    It was fascination, I know
    Seeing you alone with the moonlight above
    Then I touched your hand and next moment I kissed you
    Fascination turned to love

    It was fascination, I know
    Seeing you alone with the moonlight above
    Then I touched your hand and next moment I kissed you
    Fascination turned to love

    Composer(s): Paul Kantner
    Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane



    If you were a bird and you lived very high
    knew even the wind as the breeze came by
    say to the wind as it took you away
    That's where I wanted to go today"
    And I do know that I need to have you around
    Love like a mountain springtime
    flashing through the rivers of my mind
    it's what I feel for you
    You and me go walking south
    And we see all the world around us
    The colors blind my eyes and my mind to all but you
    And I do know that I need to have you around
    And I do, I do know that I need to have you around
    I have a house where I can go
    When there's too many people around me
    I can sit and watch all the people
    Down below goin' by me
    Halfway down the stair is a stair
    Where I sit and think about you and me
    But I wonder will the sun still see all the people goin'
    Will the moon still hang in the sky when I die
    When I die, when I'm high, when I die?
    If you were a cloud and you sailed up there
    You sail on water as blue as air
    You'd see me here in the fields and say
    "Doesn't the sky look green today?"

    Can anyone explain the thrill of a kiss
    No! No! No!

    Can anyone explain the wonder of love
    No! No! No!

    Got a little rhythm, a rhythm, a rhythm
    That pit-a-pats through my brain
    So darn persistent
    The day isn't distant
    When it'll drive me insane
    Comes in the morning
    Without any warning
    And hangs around me all day
    I'll have to sneak up to it
    Someday, and speak up to it
    I hope it listens when I say

    Refrain:
    Fascinating Rhythm
    You've got me on the go!
    Fascinating Rhythm
    I'm all a-quiver
    When a mess you're making!
    The neighbours want to know
    Why I'm always shaking
    Just like a flivver
    Each morning I get up with the sun
    Start a-hopping
    Never stopping
    To find at night no work has been done
    I know that
    Once it didn't matter
    But now you're doing wrong
    When you start to patter
    I'm so unhappy
    Won't you take a day off?
    Decide to run along
    Somewhere far away off
    And make it snappy!
    Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be!
    Fascinating rhythm
    Oh won't you stop picking on me?

    Ballad Of Wes Tancred
    Composer(s): Josef Myrow - Robert Wells
    Performer(s): Eddy Arnold



    Come all you good people and lend me your ear
    I got a sad story that you oughta hear
    The wind it was howlin' 'round Sam Older's shack
    The night that his killer stepped out of the black
    And shot Sam down from the rear

    Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
    A pal right down to the end
    Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
    The black-hearted, white-livered, backbitin' sidewinder
    Murdered his own best friend

    It happened on Friday the thirteenth of May
    The coroner carried Sam Older away
    If I don't know nothin'
    There's one thing's a fact
    The hole was much bigger in front than in back
    Now you don't kill a brave man that way

    Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
    A pal right down to the end
    Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
    The black-hearted, white-livered, backbitin' sidewinder
    Murdered is own best friend

    Now folks when you sleep
    Put a bolt on your door
    Wes Tancred is loose with his Colt 44
    Don't lie on your stomach when you go to bed
    'Cause he'll take a shot at the back of your head
    The way he done it before

    Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
    A pal right down to the end
    Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
    The black-hearted, white-livered, backbitin' sidewinder
    Murdered is own best friend

    Campanas De Plata
    Performer(s): Raphael



    En un borriquillo van para belen
    La virgen maria junto a san jose
    Y siendo santos señores
    Pasan frio y calores
    En un borriquillo camino tambien
    Pobre pelegrino con hambre y con sed
    Pero tu me alumbras coclilla encendida
    Estrella bonita que luce en belen

    Son con este son, son los campanilleros
    Son con este son, una ronda de amor
    Son con este son de campanas de plata
    Luminosa serenata, son con este son

    Farther Down The Line
    Composer(s): Lyle Lovett
    Performer(s): Lyle Lovett; Willie Nelson



    Let's have a hand for that young cowboy
    And wish him better luck next time
    And hope we see him up in Fargo
    Or somewhere farther down the line

    This time he sure drew a bad one
    One that nobody could ride
    But by the way he pulled his hat on
    You knew he'd be there for the fight

    Chorus:
    And it's the classic contradiction
    The unavoidable affliction
    Well it don't take much to predict son
    The way it always goes
    One day she says she loves you
    And the next she'll be tired of you
    And push will always come to shove you
    On that midnight rodeo

    He almost made it to the buzzer
    Somehow he gave up in the end
    They put one hand around the other
    And let that pickup man on in

    And it was his last chance to ride
    And now he'll have to move along
    But he knows back in his mind
    He won't be away for long

    Chorus:
    And it's the classic contradiction
    The unavoidable affliction
    Well it don't take much to predict son
    The way it always goes
    Because one day she says she loves you
    And the next she'll be tired of you
    And push will always come to shove you
    On that midnight rodeo

    So let's have a hand for that young cowboy
    And wish him better luck next time
    And hope we see him up in Fargo
    Or somewhere farther down the line

    The Ballad Of The Shape Of Things
    Composer(s): Sheldon Harnick
    Performer(s): The Kingston Trio



    Completely round is the perfect pearl
    The oyster manufactures
    Completely round is the steering wheel
    That leads to compound fractures
    Completely round is the golden fruit
    That hangs from the orange tree
    Yes, the circle shape is quite renowned
    And sad to say, it can be found
    In the low down, dirty runaround
    My true love gave to me, yes
    My true love gave to me

    Completely square is the velvet box
    He said my ring would be in
    Completely square is the envelope
    He said farewell to me in
    Completely square is the handkerchief
    I flourish constantly
    As I dry my eyes of the tears I shed
    And blow my nose that turned bright red
    Completely square is my true love's head
    He will not marry me, no, he will not marry me

    Rectangular is the hotel door
    My true love tried to sneak through
    Rectangular is the transom
    Over which I had to peek through
    Rectangular is the hotel room I entered angrily
    And rectangular is the wooden box
    Where lies my love neath the golden phlox
    They say he died from the chicken pox
    In part I must agree: one chick too many had he!

    Triangular is the piece of pie
    I eat to ease my sorrow
    Triangular is the hatchet blade
    I plan to hide tomorrow
    Triangular the relationship
    That now has ceased to be
    And triangular is the garment thin
    That fastens on with a safety pin
    To a prize I had no wish to win
    It's a lasting memory that my true love gave to me
