Comment T'appelles-Tu? Composer(s): Nicolas Peyrac Performer(s): Nicolas Peyrac
Elle écrase sa cigarette Et recouche sa poupée, n'a plus peur De ces quelques mots d'amour Qui me venaient du fond du coeur Et la fumée monte en moi comme un petit matin Où le soleil reviendrait Nous parler d'éternité
Elle caresse les fleurs Amoureuse de la vie, elle s'en va Apprivoiser les renards Qui dorment seuls dans les sous-bois Et son parfum monte en moi comme un vieux souvenir Qui s'accroche à la mémoire Et empêche de vieillir
Mais comment t'appelles-tu Je ne me rappelle plus Entre la tendresse et la mort
Je perds le nord N'avais-tu pas disparu? Je ne t'avais pas revue Je n'avais que mes remords Pour vivre encore
Elle me recueille des yeux Là tout au creux de sa main Et je pars, me poser sur son visage La mort est douce au fond des pleurs Et j'irais lui chercher la lune Pour veiller son sommeil Et je crois bien que je l'aime Que c'est bon la vérité
Mais comment t'appelles-tu Je ne me rappelle plus Entre la tendresse et la mort Je perds le nord N'avais-tu pas disparu? Je ne t'avais pas revue Je n'avais que mes remords Pour vivre encore
Elle écrase sa cigarette Ne se souvient plus très bien qu'il pleuvait Me caresse le visage, Me dit j'ai peur quand tu t'en vas Puis elle parle au soleil, et c'est le sable chaud Et je crois bien que je l'aime Mais à quoi servent les mots?
Dis comment t'appelles-tu Je ne me rappelle plus Entre la tendresse et la mort Je perds le nord Ne disparais jamais plus Je crois t'avoir reconnue Et puis je crois que tu m'aimes Et moi, je n'aimerai plus
Rollin' Round The World Composer(s): Saunders; Scott Performer(s): The Square Pegs; Billy Cotton
Rolling round the world Looking for the sunshine That never seems to come my way Rolling round the world Where every little milestone Seems to look at me and say Bye bye, rainy days, bye bye snow, Got no time to waste, I must go Rolling round the world Looking for the sunshine I know Im gonna find someday
Rolling round the world Looking for the sunshine That never seems to come my way Rolling round the world Where every little milestone Seems to look at me and say Bye bye, rainy days, bye bye snow, Got no time to waste, I must go Rolling round the world Looking for the sunshine I know Im gonna find someday
Rolling round the world Looking for the sunshine That never seems to come my way Rolling round the world Where every little milestone Seems to look at me and say Bye bye, rainy days, bye bye snow, Got no time to waste, I must go Rolling round the world Looking for the sunshine I know Im gonna find someday
The White Trash Song Composer(s): Steve Young Performer(s): Steve Young; Tom Russell Band
I wake up every morning About the break of dawn Hear the rooster crowing Feel all alone There's honeysuckle outside my window Dew sparkling on the vine... Little squirrels barking Like they thought they was a mountain lion... I get to thinking about the road And all the times I come back again I was born a child to these muddy roads Die here lonesome as the wind... Cause all cars they're broke down Laying in my front yard I ought to get one together But the work just seems so hard But a man come by this morning He wanted to paint my barn He painted "See Rock City - US Highway 41"
I used to have a church woman Pretty as she could be But she run off with old Jimmy Swaggart (or: a TV preacher) Up in Nashville, Tn So I drink a lot of liquor I drink a lot of booze I'm a midnight country rambler I ain't got nothing to lose
So when you carve my tombstone honey Don't worry about no name Just say he come with a Georgia wind And left with the (or: a) morning rain But he could play a fiddle Make a dobro ring Make a guitar sparkle Like that early morning rain Yeah, a man came by here today He wanted to paint my barn He painted "See rock City - Us Highway 41"

Well I could see that bear a-laughin' big Just a-hangin' in tight on the back o' my rig When all of a sudden it come to me wall to wall So in that cold dark Georgia night in the shadow o' Smokey Bear's blue light I decided to make just one more CB call...
"Break one-nine for the Super Trooper Hey there, Super Trooper, tell me if I'm right Are you my front door? Are you the White Knight? Come on?"

"And boss, before my replacement takes this rig out Tell him when he's travellin' through the dark Georgia night Don't never get no fromt door called the White Knight! No sir, 'n wind up in the pokey with Smokey? Best thing you can do with that ol' thing is yank it out by the wires I don't care if it is a Johnson Sing me a sad tune there, Johnny

Neem mijn hand Mijn hele leven is voor jou Want ik kan er niets aan doen Ik word verliefd op jou

The Whistling Song Composer(s): A. Angers - B. Wicks Performer(s): Billy Cotton & His Band
When she walks down the street All the cops on the beat turn and whistle (Wolf whistle) When she rides in the row All the boys shout out Whoa and they whistle (Wolf Whistle) Apart from the fact that its coarse A whistle unsettles the horse And an unsettled horse can result in a very sad end My friend When she travels by air Pilots turn round and stare and they whistle (Wolf whistle) When she rides in a train Porters do it again, they all whistle (Wolf whistle) Now shes met a boy who cant whistle at all But hes very handsome, hes dark and hes tall He couldnt care less about all of the rest They can whistle
When she goes for a hike Or a rid on a bike how they whistle (Wolf whistle) All the butchers and bakers And candlestick makers all whistle (Wolf Whistle) She doesnt consider it rude You cant call the lady a prude So our local attraction Gives some slight reaction Shell bow, and how. When she goes to the movies Or goes to a show how they whistle (Wolf whistle) When she puts on her coat And is ready to go how they whistle (Wolf whistle) They whistled like mad when she went to a ball She turned to the dark man whos handsome and tall And said Arent they darlings, good luck to them all They can whistle (Wolf whistle)
Au beau milieu de la foule D'un dimanche après-midi Au beau milieu de la foule Je le reconnais c'est lui

Comment L'oublier Titles In Other Languages: Helwa Ya Baladi; Yo Te Amo Composer(s): G. Sinoué; J. Barnel; B. Liamis Performer(s): Dalida
Il était fils de lumière comment l'oublier Paysan né de la terre comment l'oublier Depuis ce matin d'automne Le fleuve immobile raisonne D'un silence étrange désemparé
Oh, oh
Le vent a porté sa voix comment l'oublier De Luxor à Sakarya comment l'oublier Comment effacer le rêve Quand au ciel blesse s'élève Le cri d'une colombe qui est tombée
Etait-ce un ange était ce un homme qui peut le dire Mais il a marqué l'histoire de souvenirs Là-bas au pied des pyramides sous le soleil Il dort pareil aux pharaons
La vallée des rois m'a dit comment l'oublier Il pleut sur Alexandrie comment l'oublier Le ciel bleu n'a plus de flammes Le sphinx a perdu ses larmes D'avoir trop pleuré, bien trop pleuré
Même si parfois il a soulevé des orages Comment être indifférent à son message Car il n'avait qu'une seule idée Faire de la terre avec ses frères Une terre de paix
Oh, oh
Il était fils de lumière comment l'oublier Paysan né de la terre comment l'oublier Il a tracé une route que d'autres suivront sans doute Pour que vive encore le grand espoir

The Whiskey Ain't Workin' Composer(s): Marty Stuart - Ronny Scaife Performer(s): Travis Tritt & Marty Stuart and multiple other artists
There was a time, I could drink my cares away And drown out all of the heartaches That hurt me night and day When the thought of you came crashing through I'd have one more But now the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
I need one good honky-tonk angel To turn my life around That's reason enough for me to lay This ol' bottle down A woman warm and willin' That's what I'm lookin' for 'Cause the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
They knew my name at every bar in town And they knew all of the reasons Why I was comin' 'round, 'round, 'round (Sing it, Travis) 'Cause in my mind, peace I'd find When they'd start to pour Now the whiskey ain't workin' anymore (Sing it, son)
I need one good honky-tonk angel To turn my life around That's reason enough for me to lay This ol' bottle down Well, a woman warm and willin' Lord, that's what I'm lookin' for (That's right) 'Cause the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
Lord, the whiskey ain't workin' anymore For sure...

Je descends du singe Je suis l'homme À cause des dents d'Adam Et sa pomme Et ça ne résout pas la question Comment finir la semaine? Je n'ai pas d'argent devant moi Pour atteindre la fin du mois Et ça ne résout pas la question Comment finir la semaine?
Mon électricité est coupée Mon téléphone supprimé J'ai une ardoise à mon bar tabac Et je ne chôme pas, moi Et pourtant je croyais gagner ma vie Maison, voiture et mon nid Pas d'aventure, de folie ni de gène Comment finir la semaine?
Je descends du singe Je suis l'homme À cause des dents d'Adam Et sa pomme Et ça ne résout pas la question Comment finir la semaine?
L'animal le plus intelligent A toujours été l'homme Mais je n'en suis pas plus fier pour ça C'est taire tous mes torts L'homme ne tue pas toujours pour manger Il doit aussi se prouver Et je cours, cours devant ce problème Comment finir la semaine?
Je descends du singe Je suis l'homme À cause des dents d'Adam Et sa pomme Et ça ne résout pas la question Comment finir la semaine?

Roller Derby Queen Composer(s): Jim Croce Performer(s): Jim Croce
Gonna tell you a story, that you won't believe But I fell in love last Friday evening With the girl I saw on a bar room TV screen Well I was just getting ready to get my hat When she caught my eye, and I put it back And I ordered myself couple of more shots and beers
(Chorus) The night that I fell in love with a roller derby queen around and round, a round and round The meanest hunk of woman that anybody ever seen Down in the arena
She was 5 foot 6, two fifteen A beach blonde mama with a streak of mean She knew how to knuckle and she knew how to scuffle and fight And the roller derby program said that she was built like a fridgerator with a head Her fans called her Tuffy, but all her buddies called her Spike
(Repeat Chorus)
Well I could not help it, but to fall in love With this heavy duty woman I've been speaking of Things were kinda bad, untill the day she skated into my life Well she might be nasty, she might be fat But I never met a person who would tell her that She's my bleach blonde bomber, my heavy handed hackin sack mama
Comment Fais-Tu Pour Dormir? Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell
Tu doutes de tout mais tu t'étonnes de rien T'as pas confiance en l'être humain Qu'je suis
Tes yeux sont secs quand tu pleures Le corps à cur te fait très peur
J't'attendrai pas toute ma vie
T'effaces mes traces de ton corps du délit T'as fait de moi le faux témoin d'ta vie
Et j'mens pour tuer le temps J'fais du chantage au sentiment
J't'attendrai pas toute ma vie
Comment fais-tu pour dormir? Mes nuits sont plus belles ou bien pire A distance on les vit mal Je dis mal mais c'est plus mal que mal Ton répondeur m'fait plus rire Pleurez après l'top pour rien dire Et j'cherche souvent Le pourquoi du comment Fais-tu pour dormir?
Il y a les autres mais avant tout y a toi Dur de savoir ou tu m'places dans tout ça
Tu n'attends rien des gens Tu vis comme ça, en faisant semblant Tu f'ras pas ça tout l'temps, tout l'temps
Comment fais-tu pour dormir? Mes nuits sont plus belles ou bien pires A distance on les vit mal Je dis mal mais c'est plus mal que mal Ton répondeur m'fait plus rire Pleurez après l'top pour rien dire Et j'cherche souvent Le pourquoi du comment Fais-tu pour dormir?...
