The Newcastle Song
Performer(s): Bob Hudson



Don't you ever let a chance go by O Lord
Don't you ever let a chance go by

'Cause up in Newcastle
They have very strange mating habits
All the young women of Newcastle
Walk down the main street
Which is called Hunter Street
(for reasons which will become obvious
later on in the song)
And all the young men of Newcastle
Drive down Hunter Street
In their hot FJ Holdens
With chrome-plated grease nipples
and double reverse twin cam door handles
Sitting eight abreast in the front seat
And they would lean out the window
And say real cool things to the sheilas on the footpath

Like uhhh.... 'G'day'
And every now and then of course
One of the young ladies thinks to herself
uuum, uuuuuum

Don't you ever let a chance go by O Lord
Don't you ever let a chance go by
Don't you ever let a chance go by O Lord
Don't you ever let a chance go by

Anyway there was this mob of blokes
driving down Hunter Street
In the front seat of their hot FJ
With chrome-plated grease nipples
and twin overhead foxtails
And the cooolest of them all
Who got to sit near the window
Was young Normie

They pulled up outside the Parthenon milkbar
And standing outside the Parthenon
Was this beautiful looking sheila
'Oooohh'... 'Oooooohh'... said young Normie
Who'd come top of his class in English
'Ooooohh'... he said
So he leaned out the window and he said
real suave like he said...
'Uh, G'day'

This nine foot tall Hells Angel
Came out of the Parthenon milkbar
He looked at Norm and said
'Oh what are ya!'
Norm said 'What are you?'
The bloke on the footpath said
'Do you wanna go do ya mate, eh'
Norm said 'yeah, do you wanna go, mate'
The bloke on the footpath said
'Yeah, I'll have a go'
Norm said, 'Do you know who ya pickin''
The bloke on the footpath said
'Nooo, who am I pickin''
Norm said, 'You find out!'

And all of a sudden there was a break in the traffic
As any young Newcastle lad knows
When you are getting monstered by a
nine foot tall Hells Angel
And there's a break in the traffic...

Don't you ever let a chance go by O Lord
Don't you ever let a chance go by
Don't you ever let a chance go by O Lord
Don't you ever let a chance go by

Don't you ever let a chance go by O Lord
Don't you ever let a chance go by
Don't you ever let a chance go by O Lord
Don't you ever let a chance go by

The New Soft Shoe
Composer(s): Gram Parsons
Performer(s): Gram Parsons



It was forty or fifty years ago
A big shot played with time
Mister Walker held the door
And both kept Cord and line
Watched and checked on every single day
Building his own special cars
His very special way
Ooh! The new soft shoe
Ooh! The new soft shoe
And then walking through a southern road
I saw a shoeshine stand
A man was talking to a crowd
Holding slippers in his hands
Don't you know the same thing happens
Each and every day?
Did you ever hear a song
That's hard to even play?
Ooh! The new soft shoe
Ooh! The new soft shoe
Then a color TV broadcast
Snuck from New Orleans
Showed me one more man who spoke
and wore bright blue and green
When you saw him talk his way
Was when he showed his claws
And spoke to people every day
Just to get applause
Ooh! The new soft shoe
Ooh! The new soft shoe...

Ritorno al mare dove ho sognato con te
e sembra dirmi ciao 
Ciao, ciao!

Rivedo ancor i vecchi amici che ho
e mi salutano 
Ciao, ciao!

E sulla spiaggia limpida non e' cambiato niente
Sotto il sole caldo io ti cerco tra la gente
so che ci sei
Ecco mi hai vista, e tu
mi vieni incontro correndo
e stai sorridendomi
Ciao, ciao! Grido chia mandoti
Ciao, ciao! Amore ab bracciami
Ciao, ciao! Sono tornata da te
Ciao, ciao!

Tu non lo sai con quanta ansia aspettai
di rivedere te 
Ciao, ciao!
Ora di te non voglio perdere mai
neanche un attimo 
Ciao, ciao!

Diventeranno facili i baci dell'estate
Passeremo insieme cento ore innamorate
ma poi verra'
il giorno che partiro'
Alla stazione verrai
la mano tu agiti

Ciao, ciao! Io sto per piangere
Ciao, ciao! Il treno va io grido
Ciao, ciao! Non ti scordare di me
Ciao, ciao!

Strumentale (Tu non lo sai)
Ciao, ciao!
Strumentale (Ora di te non)
Ciao, ciao!

Diventeranno facili i baci dell'estate
Passeremo insieme cento ore innamorate
ma poi verra'
il giorno che partiro'

Alla stazione verrai
la mano tu agiti
Ciao, ciao! Io sto per piangere
Ciao, ciao! Il treno va io grido
Ciao, ciao! Non ti scordare di me

Chemical change like a laser beam
You've shattered the warning amber light
Make me warm
Let me see you moving everything over
Smiling in my room
You know you'll be inside of my mind soon

There are so many of you
White shirt and tie, white shirt and tie
White shirt and tie, wedding ring, wedding ring

Mulligan stew for Bloom
The only Jew in the room
Saxon's sick on the holy dregs
And their constant getting throw up on his leg

Molly's gone to blazes
Boylan's crotch amazes
Any woman whose husband sleeps with his head
All buried down at the foot of his bed

I've got his arm
I've got his arm
I've had it for weeks
I've got his arm
Stephen won't give his arm
To no gold star mother's farm
War's good business so give your son
And I'd rather have my country die for me

Sell your mother for a Hershey bar
Grow up looking like a car
There are
All you want to do is live
All you want to do is give but
Somehow it all falls apart!

New Girl In School

Performer(s): Jan & Dean



Pa pa do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde ooo 

I got a fad for the new girl in school 
The guys are flippin', but I'm playin' it cool 
Everybody's passin' notes in class 
They really dig her now, she's such a gas 

A pa pa pa pa do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde 
Do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde ooo, I've got a fad for the 
Do ronde ronde ooo 

The chicks are jealous of the new girl in school 
They put her down & they treat her so cruel 
But the guys are goin' out of their minds 
She's the finest chick you'll ever find 

A pa pa pa pa do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde 
Do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde ooo, I've got a fad for the 
Do ronde ronde ooo 
Pa pa do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde ooo 

A pa pa pa pa do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde 
Do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde ooo, I've got a fad for the 
Do ronde ronde ooo 

It won't belong till we're havin' a ball 
We'll walk & talk & we'll hold hands in the hall 
Never thought I'd make it through this year 
Sure was a drag till she transferred here 

(repeat): 
A pa pa pa pa do ronde ronde, do ronde ronde...

Il n'y a plus dans cette ville la joie qu'il y avait avant
Dans Le Temps
Je suis perdue dans cette ville sans toi, toi qui m’aimais, pourtant
Dans Le Temps
Je m'en vais seule au long des rues retrouver le passé
D'un amour qui n'existe plus, mais qui a commencé
Dans cette ville
J'ai beau chercher, mais plus rien; j'ai beau chercher dans les rues, mais
Pourtant c'est en vain, tu sais

Dans Le Temps - quand on s'aimait, oh oui
Dans Le Temps - je m'en souviens, oh oui
Dans Le Temps - qui a passé depuis
Dans Le Temps; Dans Le Temps
Dans ce quartier où l'on ne vit que la nuit, il y a comme avant
Dans Le Temps
Autant de vie, de lumière et de bruit; on y venait souvent
Dans Le Temps
Au club où l'on allait danser, j'ai traîné mon ennui
Quand le barman m'a vue entrer tout' seule, il a compris
Ma grande peine
Il n'a rien dit, mais je sais qu'il a compris; il a mis l'air
Que l'on fredonnait, tu sais
Dans Le Temps - quand on s'aimait, oh oui
Dans Le Temps - tu t'en souviens, oh oui
Dans Le Temps - qui a passé depuis
Dans Le Temps; Dans Le Temps
Dans cette ville rien n'a changé, si tu reviens un jour

Avec au cœur quelque regrets, rêvant de notr' amour
Dans cette ville
Rien n'a changé, mais pourtant, tu vas marcher dans les rues, mais
Rien n'est comme avant, tu sais

Dans Le Temps - quand on s'aimait, oh oui
Dans Le Temps - tu t'en souviens, oh oui
Dans Le Temps - qui a passé depuis
Dans Le Temps; Dans Le Temps

Rejoice In The Sun
Composer(s): Diane Lampert; Peter Schickele
Performer(s): Joan Baez



Heels of children running wild in the sun
like a forest is your child growing wild in the sun
Doomed in his innocence in the sun

Gather your children to your side in the sun
tell them all they love will die, tell them why, in the sun
tell them it's not too late for today one by one
tell them to harvest and rejoice --- in the sun

The Neverending Story
Composer(s): Keith Forsey - Giorgio Moroder
First release by: Limahl - 1984
Covered by multiple other artists



Turn around
Look at what you see
In her face
The mirror of your dreams
Make believe I’m everywhere
Living in your life
Written on the pages
Is the answer to a
Neverending story
Reach the sky
Fly a fantasy
Dream a dream
And what you see will be
Rhymes that keep their secrets
Will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon the rainbow
Is the answer to a
Neverending story
Story
Show no fear
For she may fade away
In your hands
The birth of a new day
Rhymes that keep their secrets
Will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon the rainbow
Is the answer to a
Neverending story
Neverending story
Neverending story
Neverending story
Neverending story

Reino De Todavía
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



Viene girando un ángulo planetario
golpeando las paredes del infinito
descascarando el nácar del inventario
violentando el remanso de lo prescrito

Ciertas presiones altas vienen girando
en los celajes arremolinaciones
travesuras del tiempo traspapelando
vienen antecedentes de los ciclones

Lloran viejos obscenos, moralizantes
almas crucificadas en los cincuenta
con las lenguas sumidas en anhelantes
saliveos al sexo de los noventa

Lloran niños dormidos, bien arropados
en la eterna ilusión de salir mejores
pero nadie se salva del pie forzado
hay que crecer bailando con sinsabores

Balseros, navidades, absolutismo
bautismos, testamentos, odio y ternura
Nadie sabe qué cosa es el comunismo
y eso puede ser pasto de la censura
Nadie sabe qué cosa es el comunismo
y eso puede ser pasto de la ventura

De entre todo lo triste y lo perdido
se aproximan girando las estrellitas
Nadie las ve avanzando por sobre el ruido
de las tiendas legales y las proscritas

El sistema invisible tendrá su precio
su frontera y tamaño, su analogía
Dios le llaman algunos, otros Comercio
mas para mi es el Reino de Todavía

Balseros, navidades, absolutismo
bautismos, testamentos, odio y ternura
Nadie sabe qué cosa es el comunismo
y eso puede ser pasto de la censura
Nadie sabe qué cosa es el comunismo
y eso puede ser pasto de la ventura

The Needle And The Spoon
Composer(s): Ronnie Van Zant - Allen Collins
Performer(s): Lynyrd Skynyrd; The Ramblers; Pickin' On



Thirty days, lord and thirty nights 
I'm comin' home on an airplane flight 
Mama waitin' at the ticket line 
Tell me son why do you stand there cryin'

It was the needle and the spoon 
And a trip to the moon 
Took me away, took me away

I've been feelin' so sick and tired 
Got to get better, lord before I die 
Seven doctors couldn't help my head, they said 
You better quit, son before your dead

It was the needle and the spoon 
And a trip to the moon 
Took me away, took me away

Quit the needle 
Quit the spoon 
Quit the trip to the moon 
We gonna take you away 
Lord, we gonna take you away 

It was the needle and the spoon 

I've seen a lot of people who thought they were cool 
But then again, lord I've seen a lot of fools 
Well, I hope you people, lord can hear what I say 
You'll have your chance to hit it some day

It was the needle and the spoon 
And a trip to the moon 
Took me away, took me away

Don't mess with the needle or a spoon 
Or any trip to the moon 
It'll take you away

Lord, their gonna bury you boy 
Don't mess with the needle 
Now I know, I know, I know...

Ciao Mon Coeur
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour; Waldir Calmon



Ciao mon coeur, ciao
On s'aime un jour et le suivant
L'amour repart tout simplement
Comme il était venu

Ciao mon coeur, ciao
Lorsque le lit n'est plus qu'un lit
Ne servant qu'à dormir la nuit
C'est qu'on ne s'aime plus

Souviens-toi
Lorsqu'ici un printemps se meurt
Il explose et fleurit ailleurs
Ce qui semble mourir
Renaît en souvenir

Ciao mon coeur, ciao
Ce qu'on s'est aimé en un an
Les autres pour en faire autant
On besoin d'une vie

Ciao mon coeur, ciao
On a brûlé par les deux bouts
Tous les plaisirs, tous les tabous
Et fait mille folies

Tu sais bien
Que ça fait très mal au dedans
On n'a pas vécu tout ce temps
Ensemble tous les deux
Sans s'attacher un peu

Ciao mon coeur, ciao
Voici la croisée des chemins
Chacun de nous reprend le sien
Un dernier signe de la main

Et ciao, ciao, ciao, adieu

All' alba quando spunta il sole
La nell' Abruzzo tutto d'or
Le prosperose campagnole
Discendono le valli infior

O campagnola bella tu sei la Reginella
Negli occhi tuoi c'e il sole il colore
Delle viole delle valli tutte in fior
Se canti, la tua voce
E' un armonia di pace
Che si diffonde e dice
"Se vuoi viver felice devi vivere quassu!

Quand' a la festa dal paesello
Con la sua cesta se ne va
Trotterellanlo l'asinello
La porta verso la citta

Ma poi la sera al tramontare
Con le sue amiche se ne va
E tutte intenta a raccontare
Quel che ha veduto la' in citta

The Needle And The Damage Done
Composer(s): Neil Young
First release by: Neil Young - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists



I caught you knocking at my cellar door
I love you, baby, can I have some more?
Oh the damage done
I hit the city and I lost my band
I watched the needle take another man
Gone, gone, the damage done

I sing the song because I love the man
I know that some of you don't understand
milk-blood to keep from runnin' out

I've seen The Needle And The Damage Done
A little part of it in everyone
But every junkie's like a settin' sun

Ciao come stai 
Non sei cambiato sai 
Dal giorno che non so 
Perchè ti dissi no 

Da una do io 
No vivo più con lui 
Fra il suo corpo e il mio 
Il mio respiro e il suo 
Bruciavi sempre tu 

Ciao come stai 
Ma parlami di te 
Ciao come stai 
Di te senza di me 
Ciao come stai 
Come ti va che fai, come si chiama lei 

Fu colpa tua 
Forse solo mia 
Ma lasciati guardar 
Mi sembra di sognar 

Ciao come stai 
Non ti ho scordato mai 
E adesso che sei qui 
ll tempo fermerei 

Toccarti e poi 
Chiudere gli occhi e poi 
Sentirti ancora in me 
Che mi rifugio in te 
Cercando solo noi 

Ciao come stai 
Ma che pazza io 
Ciao come stai 
Averti detto addio 
Ciao come stai 
Che cosa non darei 
Per tornar con te 

Fu colpa tua 
Forse solo mia 
Ma lasciati guardar 
Mi sembra di sognar 

"Ma si che lo so , ora esiste lei 
no temere, non faccio storie la tua vita adesso è accanto a lei"

Fu colpa tua 
Forse solo mia 
Che cosa importa ormai 
Visto che te ne vai 

Ciao come stai 
Ma parlami di te 
Ciao come stai 
Di te senza di me 
Ciao come stai 
Che cosa non darei 

Ciao come...

The Nearness Of You
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael - Ned Washington
First performance: Gladys Swarthout - 1938
Covered by multiple other artists



It's not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me, oh no
It's just the nearness of you

It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh no
It's just the nearness of you

When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams came true

I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you

Mille violons chantent leur mélodie
Un arc-en-ciel dans le ciel se déplie
Mais il me semble être encore sous la pluie
Si malheureuse quand il m'a dit

Tchao Tchao Bambina
Dis-moi je t'aime
Pour la dernière, dernière fois
Bientôt petite
Je vais te perdre
J'ai de la peine
Embrasse-moi
Tchao Tchao Bambina
Un jour on s'aime
Et l'on se quitte
L'amour c'est ça...
Dans tes yeux tristes
Tout le ciel pleure
Et moi je pleure
Pleure avec toi!

Ce soir en douce
Il pleure pleure
