The Lovin' Machine
Composer(s): Larry Kingston
Performer(s): Johnny Paycheck
and multiple other artists



The minute that I saw her
I knew I just had to have her
So I asked if I could take her for a spin
When I heard her engine purrin'
And I saw her tailights blinkin'
I knew I'd never be the same again

So I drove around the corner
Up the street and down the highway
Showin' off to everybody that I seen
She's streamlined, sleek-lookin'
Smooth-runnin', fast-movin'
Breath-takin' lovin' machine

She's equipped with dual headlights
Padded dash and positive traction
Instant heat and a six-way swivel seat
Ain't no wonder then all 
The connoisseurs of fine machinery
Whistle at me as I drive her down the street

She's got two of the biggest
And the prettiest and the roundest
Softest, bluest eyes you've ever seen
She's streamlined, sleek-lookin'
Smooth-runnin', fast-movin'
Breath-takin' lovin' machine

If I leave her for a minute
All the hot-rods gather 'round her
They just can't believe that such a thing is real
Oh they've never seen a chassy
Quite as slick or half as classy
They'd give anything to get behind the wheel

So I keep my little lover
Locked up tight and under cover
Give no one a chance to yell "mechanics lean"
She's streamlined, sleek-lookin'
Smooth-runnin', fast-movin'
Breath-takin' lovin' machine

She ain't too fast in the take-off
But she's a winner in the long run
And she's swell on heels when she accelerates
If she shimmies just a little
At high speeds - well who's complainin'?
Fact of the matter is I think it's kind of great!

There's a proper registration
Safety check and a set of license
Soon I'll take anywhere I choose to be
She's streamlined, sleek-lookin'
Smooth-runnin', fast-movin'
Breath-takin' lovin' machine

Cheap Tequila
Composer(s): Rick Derringer
Performer(s): Rick Derringer; Johnny Winter



Cheap perfume, sweet perfume
Lonely smell that fills the room
Roses in your low-rent tomb
A picture made of cheap perfume
Sad old rag, sad young hag
Clothes that hide the early sag
Sequins on a lame bag
The sparkles of a sad old rag

Drink up and be happy
Live just for today
Drown in cheap tequila
And flush yourself away

Worn out dream, washed up scheme
Blueprint for a death machine
Scarred wrists on a movie queen
A picture of a worn out dream

Drink up and be happy
Live just for today
Drown in cheap tequila
And flush yourself away

Drink up and be happy
Live just for today
Drown in cheap tequila
And flush yourself away

Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?

Fifi said to Don the baker
"Can ya show me how to bake another bun, Don?"
And I'm still sittin' with my next door neighbour
Sayin', "Where'd ya get the gun, John?"

Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?

Christopher was asking the astronomer
"Can your telescope tell me where the sun's gone?"
And I'm still sittin' with my next door neighbour
Sayin', "Where'd ya get the gun, John?"

Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?

Changin' just a few things
Laughin' while the bell rings on the door
Changin' just a few things
Shootin' when the bird sings

Changin' just a few things
Laughin' while the bell rings on the door
Changin' just a few things
Shootin' when the bird sings

Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?
Don't ya wanna rain dance with me?

The Loveliest Night Of The Year
((Adapted from: Over The Waves Waltz (The Edison Military Band) - 1904))
Composer(s): Juventino Rosas - Irving Aaronson - Paul Francis Webster
Performer(s): Mario Lanza - 1951
and multiple other artists



When you are in love
It's the loveliest night of the year
Stars twinkle above
And you almost can touch them from here

Words fall into rhyme
Anytime you are holding me near
When you are in love
It's the loveliest night of the year!

Waltzing along in the blue
like a breeze drifting over the sand
Thrilled by the wonder of you
and the wonderful touch of your hand
and...

My heart starts to beat
like a child when a birthday is near
So kiss me, my sweet 
It's the loveliest night of the year!

Che, Que Mal
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



Te fuiste, amigo, sin decir adiós
sin dar ninguna explicación
Ya sé que fue por un golpe de tos
y no por mala educación
Aunque, de todos modos, qué marrón
zarpar así, sin avisar
sabiendo que sin tu tripulación
no te  gustaba navegar
Pero lo cierto es que no volveré
a oír tu "che, quin gust'
tu "che, qué bo" 
tu "che, qué be"
tu corazón no lo aguantó
te reventó
che, qué mal, che, qué mal
Qué fuego urgente había que apagar
qué prisa en irte, qué ocurrió
si a mejor vida no podrás pasar
Incluso el Papa te envidió
De nada, amigo, te podrás quejar...
hasta te amó una emperatriz
Tu reino era la Inmensidad del mar
y tu bandera, ser feliz
Pero lo cierto es que no volveré...
Y cuando llegue la "Nit de Sant Joan"
oliendo a piras y a jazmín
quién montará 'safaris', capitán
cazando olores del jardín
Y cuando enero sea un atardecer
y caiga el sol tras el Montgó
quién me dirá: 'ja ho veus, va ser al gener
quand Déu va fer la Creació"
Pero lo cierto es que no volverá ...

Rain And Tears

Performer(s): Aphrodite's Child
and multiple other artists



Rain and tears
Are the same 
But in the sun 
You've got to play the game 

When you cry 
In winter time 
You can pretend 
It's nothing but the rain 

How many times 
I've seen 
Tears coming 
From your blue eyes?
Rain and tears
Are the same 
But in the sun 
You've got to play the game 

Give me an answer of love (O, Ooohhh) 
I need an answer of love (O, Ooohhh) 

Rain and tears 
In the sun 
But in your heart 
You feel the rainbow waves 

Rain and tears 
Both I shun 
For in my heart 
There'll never be a sun 

Rain and tears, 
Are the same 
But in the sun 
You've got to play the game 

Game...

The Love You Save
Composer(s): Corporation
Performer(s): The Jackson 5



Stop you'd better save me!
Stop, stop, stop you'd better save me!

When we played tag in grade school, you wanted to be it
But chasin' boys was just a fad, you crossed your heart you'd quit
When we grew up you traded your promise for my ring
Now just like back in grade school, you're doing that same old thing!

Stop! The love you save may be your own!
Darlin' take it slow, or someday you'll be all alone
Better stop! The love you save may be your own!
Darlin' look both ways before you cross me
You're headin' for a danger zone!

I'm the one who loves you, I'm the one you need
Those other guys will put you down as soon as they succeed!
They'll ruin your reputation, they'll label you a flirt!
The way they talk about you, they'll turn your name to dirt, oh!

Isaac said he kissed you beneath the apple tree
When Benjie held your hand he felt electricity
When Alexander called you he said he rang your chimes
Christopher discovered you're way ahead of your time!

Stop! The love you save may be your own!
Darlin' take it slow or someday you'll be all alone
You better stop! The love you save may be your own!
Darlin' look both ways before you cross me
You're headin' for a danger zone!

Hold on, hold on, hold on!
"S" is for "Save It!"
"T" is for "Take It Slow!"
"O" is for "Oh no!"
"P" is for "Please, please don't go!"

The love you save may be your own
Someday you may be all alone
Stop it, baby, ooh, you'd better stop! the love you save may be your own!
Please, please, cause someday, someday, baby, you'll be all alone!

I'm the one who loves you, I'm the one you need!
Those other guys will put you down as soon as they succeed!

Oh stop! the love you save may be your own, baby!
You better stop it, stop it, stop it, girl, or someday you'll be all alone!
The way they talk about you, they'll turn your name, turn your name to dirt!

Stop! The love you save may be your own!
Don'tcha know, don'tcha know, someday, baby, you'll be all alone?

Those other guys will put you down as soon as they succeed!

Stop! The love you save may be your own!
Darlin' take it slow...

Che Tesoro Che Sei
Composer(s): L. Pardo - Antonello Venditti
Performer(s): Antonello Venditti



Che tesoro che sei
quando mi guardi
quando dici che mi chiami dopo
e non mi chiami mai
che tesoro che sei
quando fai tardi
dici scusa sono in mezzo al traffico
mi aspetterai
e se il nostro poi non fosse amore
giuro io non ti lascerei
anche se pensi che di te
non me ne importa niente
anche se non fossi un angelo
io non ti cambierei
perché sei bella bella bella
bella come sei
sei bella come ti vorrei
che tesoro che sei
quando ti svegli
quando esci dalla doccia e corri
e non ti asciughi mai
ti rivesti nel buio
e leghi i tuoi capelli
un biglietto per me sono pazza di te
non lo sai
e se il nostro poi non fosse amore
giuro io non ti lascerei
se pensassi che di me
non te ne importa niente
anche se non fossi un angelo
io non ti cambierei
perché sei bella bella bella
bella come sei
sei bella come ti vorrei
che tesoro che sei
quando mi guardi
quando pensi con gli stessi occhi
tu mi lascerai
che paura che hai
non mi sorprendi
perché stare con me
non e' bere un caffè tu lo sai
e se il nostro poi non fosse amore
giuro io non ti lascerei
se pensassi che di me
non te ne importa niente
anche se non fossi un angelo
io non ti cambierei
perché sei bella bella bella
bella come sei
sei bella come ti vorrei...

Rain
Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney
Performer(s): The Beatles



If the rain comes 
they run and hide their heads
They might as well be dead
If the rain comes
If the rain comes

When the sun shines 
they slip into the shade
and sip their lemonade
When the sun shines
When the sun shines

Rain, I don't mind
Shine, the weather's fine

I can show you 
that when it starts to rain
everything's the same
I can show you
I can show you

Rain, I don't mind
Shine, the weather's fine

Can you hear me
that when it rains and shines
it's just a state of mind
Can you hear me
Can you hear me

The Love Of My Life 
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - Frederick Loewe



Meg:
At sixteen years I was blue and sad
then father said I should find a lad
So I set out to become a wife
An' found the real love of my life
His name it was Chris, and the last was MacGill
I met him one night pickin' flowers on the hill
He had lots of charm an' a certain kind o' touch
And a certain kind of eagerness that pleased me very much
so there 'neath the moon where romance often springs
I gave him my heart--an' a few other things
I don't know how long that I stayed up on the hill
But the moon had disappeared, and so had Christopher MacGill
So I went home an' I thought I'd die
Till Father said, make another try
So out I went to become a wife
An' found the real love of my life
He came from the lowlands, the lowlands said he
I saw him an' knew he was perfect for me
Jus' one thing that puzzled me an' it always will
Was he told me he had heard about me from his friend MacGill
We quick fell in love an' went down by the creek
The next day he said he'd be back in a week
An' I thought he would, for now how was I to know
That of all the lowland laddies, there was never one as low!
I told my father the awful truth
He said, "What difference? Ye've got your youth"
So out I went mad to be a wife
An' found the real love of my life
Oh, he was a poet, a rhymer was he
He read me some verse he had written for me
He said they would move me, these poems from his pen
An' how right he was, because they moved me right into the glen
We stayed till the dawn came an' lighted the sky
Then I shook his hand an' I bid him good-bye
I never went back, for what I had heard was true
That a poet only writes about the things he cannot do
My pa said, "Look out for men who think
Ye'll be more certain with men who drink"
So out I went to become a wife
An' found the real love of my life
Oh, he was a solier, a fine Highland son
He told me about all the battle he'd won
He wasted his time tellin' me about his might
For one look at him decided me to not put up a fight
We skirmished for hours that night in the glen
an' I found the sword has more might than the pen
But when I was drowsin' I snored to my dismay
An' he thought it was a bugle an' got up an' marched away
Now Pa said, "Daughter, there must be one
Someone who's true, or too old to run"
So I'm still lookin' to be a wife
An' find the real love of my life

I feel it... 
It's coming... 

Rain 
Feel it on my finger tips, hear it on my window pane 
Your love's coming down like 
Rain 
Wash away my sorrow, take away my pain 
Your love's coming down like 
Rain 

When your lips are burning mine 
And you take the time to tell me how you feel 
When you listen to my words 
And I know you've heard, I know it's real 
Rain is what this thunder brings 
For the first time I can hear my heart sing 
Call me a fool but I know I'm not 
I'm gonna stand out here on the mountain top 
Till I feel your 

Rain 
Feel it on my finger tips, hear it on my window pane 
Your love's coming down like 
Rain 
Wash away my sorrow, take away my pain 
Your love's coming down like 
Rain 

When you looked into my eyes, and you said goodbye 
Could you see my tears 
When I turned the other way 
Did you hear me say 
I'd wait for all the dark clouds bursting in a perfect sky 
You promised me when you said goodbye 
That you'd return when the storm was done 
And now I'll wait for the light, I'll wait for the sun 
Till I feel your 

Rain 
Feel it on my finger tips, hear it on my window pane 
Your love's coming down like 
Rain 
Wash away my sorrow, take away my pain 
Your love's coming down like 
Rain 

Here comes the sun... here comes the sun 
And I say... never go away 

Waiting is the hardest thing 
(It's strange I feel like I've known you before)
I tell myself that if I believe in you 
(And I want to understand you)
In the dream of you 
(More and more)
With all my heart and all my soul 
(When I'm with you)
That by sheer force of will 
(I feel like a magical child)
I will raise you from the ground 
(Everything's strange)
And without a sound you'll appear 
(Everything's wild)
And surrender to me 
To love 

Rain is what the thunder brings 
For the first time I can hear my heart sing 
Call me a fool but I know I'm not 
I'm gonna stand out here on the mountain top 
Till I feel your 

Rain 
I feel it... 
It's coming... 
Your love's coming down like 
Rain... 

I'll stand out on the mountain top 
Until I hear you call 
My name 

Rain...

The Love Nest
Composer(s): Louis A. Hirsch - Otto A. Harbach
Performer(s): George Burns & Gracie Allen
and multiple other artists



Many builders there have been
Since the world began
Palace, cottage, mansion, inn
They have built for man
Some were small and some were tall
Long or wide or low
But the best one of them all
Jack built long ago
’Twas built in bygone days
Yet millions sing its praise

Just a love nest
Cozy with charm
Like a dove nest
Down on a farm
A veranda with some sort of clinging vine
Then a kitchen where some rambler roses twine
Then a small room
Tea set of blue
Best of all, room
Dream room for two
Better than a palace with a gilded dome
Is a love nest
You can call home

Building houses still goes on
Now as well as then
Ancient Jack and Jill are gone
Yet return again
Ever comes the question old
Shall we build for pride
Or shall brick and mortar hold
Warmth and love inside?
The answer you may know
Jack solved it long ago

Paese mio che stai sulla collina
disteso come un vecchio addormentato
la noia, l'abbandono, il niente son la tua malattia
paese mio ti lascio io vado via

Che sarà, che sarà, che sarà
Che sarà della mia vita chi lo sa
So far tutto o forse niente, da domani si vedrà
e sarà, sarà quel che sarà

Gli amici miei son quasi tutti via
e gli altri partiranno dopo me
Peccato perché stavo bene in loro compagnia
ma tutto passa, tutto se ne và

Che sarà, che sarà, che sarà
Che sarà della mia vita chi lo sa
Con me porto la chitarra e se la notte piangerò
una nenia di paese suonerò

Amore mio ti bacio sulla bocca
che fu la fonte del mio primo amor
ti do L'appuntamento dove e quando non lo so
ma so soltanto che ritornerò

Che sarà, che sarà………

Listen to the pouring rain
listen to it pour
And with every drop of rain
You know I love you more

Let it rain all night long
let my love for you go strong
as long as we`re together
who cares about the weather?

Listen to the falling rain
listen to it fall
and with every drop of rain
I can hear you call
call my name right out loud
I can here above the clouds
and I`m here among the puddles
you and I together huddle

Listen to the falling rain
listen to it fall

It`s raining
it`s pouring
The old man is snoring
went to bad
and bumped his head
he couldn`t get up in the morning

Listen to the falling rain
listen to the rain

Step right up to the love machine
You may get lucky when you zap a dream
Let the wheel go round, round and round

She maybe tall she maybe short
She may be wide

Step up, whose next in line
This love machine don't waste no time

Let the wheel go round and round and round
And round and round and round and round
What will your fortune be on the love machine

What will your fortune be on the love machine

(Rain, rain, don't go away)
(Rain, rain, don't go away)

Rain, let us cuddle while the rain
Pitter patters on the pane
And we're alone
A chance to while away the dreary afternoon
The lovely peaceful afternoon
So no one can see us

Rain (don't go away), it's so cosy in the rain (don't go away)
There's no reason to complain
If she's with you
You hold her hand and then
It's ten to one you'll kiss her
In the rain, rain, rain

Rain it's so cosy in the rain (pitter patter on the pane)
There's no reason to complain
If she's with you
You hold her hand and then
It's ten to one you'll kiss her
In the rain (rain), rain (rain), rain (rain)

The Love I Never Had
Composer(s): Dennis Lambert - Brian Potter
Performer(s): Tavares



Never gonna miss it
The love I never had
Never gonna miss it
The love I never had
Never gonna miss it...

You've been coming home a little later
And you never feel like saying where you've been
You know I tried to make some conversation
But I guess the things I say are wearin' thin
You never needed me, I only see it now
But I can live alone, girl you taught me how
And I wish that I could say I'm gonna feel so sad
(gonna feel so sad)
But I just can't miss the love I never had

Never gonna miss it
The love I never had
Never gonna miss it...

When I was reachin' out you didn't want me
But at least I know I gave it one good try
(didn't I, didn't I give it one good try?)
Gonna pack my bags then I'll be leavin'
You don't have to stay around to say goodbye
Oh any fool can see it's over and it's done
It really ended girl, before it had begun
And I wish that I could say I'm gonna take it bad
Oh so bad, so bad
But I just can't miss the love I never had

(Never gonna miss it)
Oh and I wish that I could say I'm gonna feel so sad, so sad
(gonna feel so sad)
But I just can't miss the love I never had

Never gonna miss it...
The love I never had

Senza di te
Che posso fare
Di tutto il tempo
Che mi resterà
Di tanta gente
Indifferente
Che ne faro
Tu no ci sei piu 

Di tante notti
Perché, per chi
E del mattino
Che ancor tornerà
Di questo cuore
Che troppo forte
Batte per chi
Perché 

Senza di te
Che posso fare
Nel vuoto che
Mi ciconderà
Mi resterà
La terra e il mare
Ma senza te
Ben poco sarà

Amici no
Lasciate star
Sapete pure
Che cos'é il mio mal
E la città
Con la sua folla
Non è che noia
Per me 

Senza di te
Che posso fare
Urlare per
Esser viva ancor
Le notti intere
Voglio bruciare
E al mattino
Ridero di me 

Poi una notte
Mi specchiero
E scorgero
La fine per me
Non un fiore 
Nessun dolore 
Quando me 
Ane andro 

Anche il dolor
Sarà finito
Tutto finito
Sarà
