The Chain
Composer(s): Lindsey Buckingham - Stevie Nicks - John McVie - Christine McVie - Mick Fleetwood
First release by: Fleetwood Mac - 1977
Covered by multiple other artists



Listen to the wind blow
Watch the sun rise

Run in the shadows
Damn your love
Damn your lies

And if
You don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain

List to the wind blow
Down comes the night

Run in the shadows
Damn your love
Damn your lies

Break the silence
Damn the dark
Damn the light

And if
You don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain

Canta Ragazzina
Composer(s): Labati Donida - Iller Pattacini - Claudio Pepperdrini
Performer(s): Bobby Solo; Connie Francis; Mina



Tu sei come me
quando ero un bambino
sei bella e non sai
tutto quello che hai

Canta ragazzina
che il giorno dura solo poche ore
e quando arriva sera puoi scoprire
che il sole se n'è andato e resti tu

Canta ragazzina
e non fermarti a piangere o a pensare
che tanto tutto passa anche l'amore
Ed alla fine resti solo tu
non fare come me
non fare come me
che oramai non vivo più

Un giorno vale una anno
e la vita vale un attimo
ti svegli un mattino
e ti trovi già donna

Canta ragazzina
che il giorno dura solo poche ore
e quando arriva sera puoi scoprire
che il sole se n'è andato e resti tu

Canta ragazzina
e non fermarti a piangere o a pensare
che tanto tutto passa anche l'amore
Ed alla fine resti solo tu
non fare come me
non fare come me
che oramai non vivo più

Performer(s): Tammy Wynette & George Jones



(man speaks):
Dearly beloved, we are gathered together
In the presence of God, and these witnesses
To join this man and this woman in the bonds
Of holy matrimony

Do you Tammy, take this man, George
To be your lawfully wedded husband
To love and to cherish until death do you part?

(T.W.) sings:
I'll take this man and by him I'll stand
I promise that we'll never part
To him, I'll be true
There'll be no one new
From now, till death do us part

(man speaks):
And do you, George, take this woman, Tammy
To be your lawfully wedded wife
To love and to cherish, until death do you part?

(G.J.):
Yes I'll take this woman
She'll be mine forever
And I'll love her, with all of my heart

To have and to hold
My love won't grow cold
I promise, till death do us part

(both sing):
We'll take each other
From this day forward
Together, in sickness or health

United with love
We'll face life together
If we're poor or if we have wealth

For better or worst
You'll always come first
And no one can keep us apart

Yes, we take each other
Forsaking all others
Together, till death do us part

(man speaks):
I now pronounce you, man and wife

Canta libre, Canta vida, de mi madre, y mi padre 
Canta mi corazon, Para los ninos, y sus ninos, canta libre

I got music runnin' in my head
Makes me feel like a young bird flyin'
'Cross my mind and layin' in my bed
Keeps me away from the thought of dyin'
Canta libre, Canta vida, de mi madre y mi padre

I got music runnin' in my brain
Ev'ry song with it's own kind of meaning
Cleanse the soul and wash away the pain 
Baptized by the song that you're singing
Canta libre, Canta la vida

Canta libre, canta la vida

Canta mi corazon, Paralos ninos, y sus ninos, canta libre
de mi madre, y mi padre, canta libre, canta libre

Finestra Chiusa
Composer(s): Renee Bracchi; D'Anzi
Performer(s): Carlo Buti



Perchè m’hai fatto piangere?
Perché non m’ami più?
Lo so che le mie lacrime
ti fan sorridere, l’hai detto tu
Perché tu non vuoi credere 
che non so vivere lontan da te?

Finestra chiusa al mio cuore innamorato
Questa notte son tornato per restar vicino a te
Finestra chiusa senza luce e senza amor
Se fai piangere il muio cuor tu non hai pietà di me

Ritorna ancora! Ma tu non mi ascolti più
Ritorna ancora senza te non vivo più!
Finestra chiusa forse un vento di follia
si portò la donna mia e non la vedrò mai più

Lo so ti debbo perdere 
lo so ma nel mio cuor 
l’amor non posso uccidere
mi devi credere, non so mentir
Così non posso vivere 
e debbo piangere per non morir

The Cat Crept In
Composer(s): Mike Chapman - Nicky Chinn
Performer(s): Mud



I said hey you guys, look who's waiting outside
Well she's got style you can see it in her feline eyes
When she starts moving you sure can tell
When she starts shaking she's raising hell
I said hey you guys, look who's waiting ouside

You remember how she left that floor on a Saturday night
The cat's footloose and she darned near started a fight
Well she may have been flashing like a neon sign
But you can't touch her 'cos she's mine all mine
I said hey you guys, look who's waiting outside
Let her in! 

And then the cat crept in swinging her tail
And then the cat crept in swinging her tail
Just open up the door to that high heeled paw
I said the cat crept in, we crept out again
I said the cat crept in, and we crept out again 

I said hey you guys, can you hear that alley cat cry
She aint superstitious but she's hanging on to life number nine
Well you may not show it but she hides in the light
And she may not show it but this cat can bite
I said hey you guys, look who's waiting outside
Let her in! 

And then the cat crept in swinging her tail
And then the cat crept in swinging her tail
Just open up the door to that high heeled paw
I said the cat crept in, we crept out again
I said the cat crept in, and we crept out again 

Well she's got style you can see it in her feline eyes
Well she may have been flashing like a neon sign
But you can't touch her 'cos she's mine all mine
I said hey you guys, look who's waiting outside
Okay, let her in!

And then the cat crept in swinging her tail
And then the cat crept in swinging her tail
Just open up the door to that high heeled paw
I said the cat crept in, we crept out again
I said the cat crept in, and we crept out again...

¡Antes que cantes los gallos! 
Compartiré sus almohadas
Gallito de madrugada

despierta y dile al oido 
que soy el único dueño!
¡Canta! ¡Canta! 
Canta el gallo
negro gallo enamorado
Y la gallinita blanca 
miraba para otro lado
El gallo negro muy gallo 
no se iba achicar por eso 
en cuanto se descuidó 
le encajó en el pico un beso!
¡Canta! ¡Canta! 
Canta gallito
gallito de madrugada
La gallinita ya puso
un huevo de enamorada
Gallito cantor del alba 
no cantes a medianoche
canta el gallo con la luna
y viene la muerte en coche
¡Canta! ¡Canta! 
Canta gallito
gallito del mundo entero 
que no canten los cañones 
¡Que es un canto traicionero!
¡Canta! ¡Cantal 
Canta gallito
alerta a mi bien amada
Que andan sueltos por el campo
los gallos que nos picaban
¡Canta! ¡Canta! 
Canta gallito 
canta gallo compañero
¡Los gallos que no son gallos
andan por el gallinero!
Gallito de la montaña
gallito de monte y río
que no se callen los gallos
que canten el canto mío

Fine On My Mind
Composer(s): Jerry Reed
Performer(s): Jerry Reed



Well girl you're fine on my mind all the time 
Fine on my mind all the time
I never met a woman quite like you 
And all the sweet things you do

Stay fine on my mind all the time

My papa said someday boy true love's gonna come your way
Someday some woman's gonna love you right out of your mind
You'll lose your appetite and won't be able to sleep at night
For thinkin' bout some woman all the time

Well girl you're fine...

Well if papa could just see me 
Lord I know how tickled he'd be
To know some woman got me talkin' to myself
And it's been like this since it came first time we kissed
I can't seem to think about nothin' else

Yes girl you're fine...

The Cat Came Back
Performer(s): Rowlf



Little Bennie had a cat that they wouldn't let him keep
So he put her up for sale at a price he thought was cheap
He took her to a neighbor to ask him for advice
He said, "Leave the kitty here
She can help me with the mice"

But the cat came back, she wouldn't stay away
She was sitting on the porch the very next day
The cat came back, she didn't want to roam
The very next day it was Home, Sweet Home

Then Bennie met a man who was driving way out West
He would take the cat along as a special honored guest
The steering wheel was wobbly, he drove into a tree
The car was just a total wreck as anyone could see

But the cat came back, she wouldn't stay away
She was sitting on the porch the very next day
The cat came back, she didn't want to roam
The very next day it was Home, Sweet Home

So Bennie bought a gun from the Human Cannonball
He put the cat inside with Tri-Nitro Toluol
When he pulled the trigger, the cannon made a roar
The neighbors all surrendered 'cause they thought it was a war

But the cat came back, she wouldn't stay away
She was sitting on the porch the very next day
The cat came back, she didn't want to roam
The very next day it was Home, Sweet Home

Then Bennie gave the cat to a man who had a bomb
When he took the cat away, she was acting cool and calm
And then the bomb exploded, it made an awful sound
They searched and searched for ages but the man was never found

But the cat came back, she wouldn't stay away
She was sitting on the porch the very next day
The cat came back, she didn't want to roam
The very next day it was Home, Sweet Home

Can't You Take It Back And Change It For A Boy
Composer(s): Thurland - Chattaway
Performer(s): Rex Allen



From the nursery creepin', a little boy came peepin'
Shyly peepin' through a golden curl
At a tiny bundle, such a funny bundle
Was a tiny, little baby girl
Came to town that mornin', as the day was dawnin'
Mother thought t'would fill his heart with joy
But he shook his little head and to his Mammy said
Gee I wish that you had bought a boy

Can't you take it back and change it for another
I don't want no little sister don't you see
'Cos I'd rather have a little baby brother
Who could play a game of ball with me
For it ain't no fun to play with dolls and such things
A girl you know could never fix a toy
So I'll tell you what to do, if it's just the same with you
Can't you take it back and change it for a boy

Now ain't it awful funny? Did it cost much money?
Won't it be an awful lot of care
It t'ain't a good one Mother, you'll have to get another
Can't you see it hasn't any hair
Don't its teeth come with it? Will its nose grow, will it?
Don't it make an awful lot of noise
Take it back today, take it right away
And buy one where they only sell just boys

Can't you take it back and change it for another
I don't want no little sister don't you see
'Cos I'd rather have a little baby brother
Who could play a game of ball with me
It ain't no fun to play with dolls and such things
A girl you know could never fix a toy
So I'll tell you what to do, if it's just the same with you
Can't you take it back and change it for a boy

Oh, he's got a fine brown frame
I wonder what could be his name
He looks good to me, and all I can see
Is his fine brown frame

How long have you been around
Mister when did you hit this big town
I wanna scream 'cos I've never seen
Such a fine brown frame

All that I have is a broken down chair
But I would gladly make him king on my throne
Don't be a square, why don't you come over here
Together we would really be gone

Woh-ooh! he's got a fine brown frame
I wonder what could be his name
He is solid with me, and all I can see
Is his fine brown frame

Be be be be beep

He's got such a fine brown frame
I wonder what could be his name
He looks good to me, and all I can see
Is his fine brown frame

How long have you been around
Mister when did you hit this big town
I wanna scream, aahhhh, 'cos I've never seen
Such a fine brown frame

All that I have is a broken down chair
But I would gladly make him king on my throne
Don't be a square, why don't you come over here
Together we would really be gone

Ooohh, he's such a fine brown frame
Honey won't you tell me your name
He is solid with me and all I can see
Is his fine brown frame

Now Robert Taylor, Robert Young, Ameche and Gable
Are all as fine as mountain sable
You may not be classed with the elite
And you may not be hip to that jive-like foot, an' all reet

Oh-woh-woh-woh baby you, you look like Hercules done up in bronze
And I know I'm a clown whenever you're around
Because I'm crazy 'bout, mad about, wild about
Your fine brown frame

The Cat Came Back
Composer(s): Traditional - Harry Miller
Performer(s): Fiddlin' John Carson
and multiple other artists



Now old Mr. Johnson had troubles of his own
He had an old yellow cat that wouldn't leave home
Tried everything he knew to do to keep the cat away
Took him up to Canada and told him for to stay...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

On the telegraph wire the birds were sittin' in a bunch
Saw an even number, thought he'd' have `em for his lunch
Climbed softly up the pole, until he reached the top
Put his foot upon the electric wire, tied him in a knot...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

This old cat had company out in the backyard
Somebody threw a boot, and threw it awful hard
Hit the cat behind the ear and he thought it was a slight
And down came a brick and knocked him out of sight...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They threw him in the kennel where the dog was asleep
And the bones of cats lay piled in a heap
That ol' kennel burst apart and the dog flew out the side
With his ears chewed off and holes in his hide...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They sneaked into the shop with the butcher not around
And they dropped him in the hopper where the meat was ground
The old cat disappeared with a blood-curdling shriek
And that shop's hamburger tasted furry for a week...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They put him in a cotton sack and give him to a girl
Who was startin' on a bicycle all around the world
Well over there in China, a terrible wreck was found
She's singin' now in heaven with the angels all around...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

Now this cat was a terror and they thought it would be best
To give him to a feller who was goin' out West
Train ran around a curve and hit a broken rail
Not a blessed soul aboard the train lived to tell the tale...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They gave the old cat to the man in the balloon
And they told him to give him to the man in the moon
Well the balloon, it busted and everybody said,
"Ten miles away they picked a man up dead"...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

Well at last they found the way this cat they'd really fix
They put him in an orange crate on Highway Sixty-Six
Come a ten ton truck with a twenty ton load
Scattered pieces of the orange crate a mile down the road...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They put him on a boat bound for Cambridge town
They thought with all the rain there, he'd surely drown
When the rain come down on the ninety-second day
The whole darn city just a-floated out the bay...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

Now the farmer on the corner said he'd shoot the cat on sight
And he loaded up his gun with nails and dynamite
And he hid in the garden till the cat come around
Seven little pieces of the man was all they found...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They put him on the White House lawn, I'll tell you the reason why
They thought with all those golf balls flyin' there, he'd surely die
The very next morning, what do you think they found
Ninety-four squirrels lyin' dead upon the ground...

But the cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

They took him down to Cape Canaveral and they put him in a place
And they shot him in a satellite way into space
They thought that cat was beyond human reach
Then they got a phone call from Miami Beach, sayin'...

The cat came back
The very next day the old cat came back
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back
`Cause he wouldn't stay away

My man don't love me
Treats me oh, so mean
My man don't he love me
Treats me awful mean
He's the lowest man
That I've ever see

He wears high drape pants
Stripes are really yellow
He wears high drape pants
Stripes area really yellow
But when he starts in to love me
He's so fine and mellow

Love will make you drink and gamble
Make you stay out all night long
Love will make you drink and gamble
Make you stay out all night long
Love will make you do things
That you know is wrong

But if you treat me right, baby
I'll stay home every day
If you treat me right, baby
I'll stay home every day
But you're so mean to me, baby
I know you're gonna drive me away

Love is just like a faucet
It turns off and on
Love is like a faucet
It turns off and on
Sometimes when you think it's on, baby
It has turned off and gone

The Carroll County Accident
Composer(s): Bob Ferguson
Performer(s): Porter Wagoner
and multiple other artists



Carroll County's pointed out as kind of square
The biggest thing that happens is the county fair
I guess that's why we thought it such a big event
What we call the Carroll County accident

The wreck was on the highway just outside the line
Walter Browning lost his life and for a time
It seemed that Mary Ellen Jones would surely die
But she lived long enough for her to testify

Walter Browning was a happy married man
And he wore a golden wedding ring upon his hand
But it was gone, nobody knew just where it went
He lost it in the Carroll County Accident

Mary Ellen testified that he flagged her down
Said he was sick and could she drive him into town
No one ever doubted what she said was true
'Cause she was well respected in the county too

I went down to see the wreck like all the rest
The broken glass the bloody seats the tangled mess
But I found something no one else had ever seen
Behind the dash in Mary's crumpled up machine

A little match box circled by a rubber band
And inside the ring from Walter Browning's hand
It took awhile to figure out just what it meant
The truth about the Carroll County accident

By dark of night I dropped the ring into a well
And took a sacred oath that I would never tell
The truth about the Carroll County accident
For the County ordered dad a marble monument

Yes, I lost him in the Carroll County accident

The Carnival Is Over
Composer(s): Tom Springfield
First release by: The Seekers - 1965



Say goodbye, my own true lover
As we sing a lover's song
How it breaks my heart to leave you
Now the carnival is gone
High above, the dawn is waking
And my tears are falling rain
For the carnival is over
We may never meet again

Like a drum my heart was beating
And your kiss was sweet as wine
But the joys of love are fleeting
For Pierrot and Columbine

Now the harbour light is calling
This will be our last goodbye
Though the carnival is over
I will love you till I die

Like a drum my heart was beating
And your kiss was sweet as wine
But the joys of love are fleeting
For Pierrot and Columbine

Now the harbour light is calling
This will be our last goodbye
Though the carnival is over
I will love you till I die

Though the carnival is over
I will love you till I die
