I got a bird what whistles, baby got a bird Honey got a bird ... it would sing, baby got a bird Honey got a bird ... it would sing Without my Corrina, sure don't mean ..., sure don't mean a natural thing
I learned to love you baby, honey for I call Baby for I call your name, baby for I call Honey for I call your name, I love you Corrina It sure don't mean, it sure don't mean a natural thing
Have mercy, have mercy, baby on my hard luck Honey on my hard luck soul, baby on my hard luck Honey on my hard luck soul
I got a rainbow round my shoulder Looks like silver, shines like Klondike1 gold
Well I love you honey, honey tell the world, baby tell the world I do Honey tell the world I do, baby tell the world I do Ain't no woman in fourteen counties, love me baby like the way I do
I got a bird what whistles, baby got a bird Honey got a bird ... it would sing, baby got a bird Honey got a bird ... it would sing Without Corrina, sure don't mean, sure don't mean a natural thing

There's A Village In A Valley Composer(s): Mitchell Paris - Abner Silver Performer(s): Sammy Kaye
There's a village in a valley Down among the sleepy hills Where we used to stroll along And hear the song of whip-poor-wills In that village in the valley Once we parted in the rain As we kissed, remember how we made a vow to meet again ? Soon, my darling, the wedding bells will chime From the chapel in apple blossom time
There's a village in a valley There are roses 'round the door Where the sky is blue above We'll live and love forever more

As I walk along I wonder a-what went wrong With our love, a love that was so strong And as I still walk on, I think of the things we've done Together, a-while our hearts were young
I'm a-walkin' in the rain Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain Wishin' you were here by me To end this misery And I wonder I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder Why Ah-why-why-why-why-why she ran away And I wonder where she will stay My little runaway, run-run-run-run-runaway

There's A Tear In My Beer Composer(s): Hank Williams First recording/First release by: Hank Williams - 1951/1998
There's a tear in my beer 'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear You are on my lonesome mind Into these last nine beers I have shed a million tears You are on my lonely mind
I'm gonna keep drinkin' until I'm petrified And then maybe these tears will leave my eyes
There's a tear in my beer 'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear You were on my lonely mind
Last night I walked the floor, and the night before You were on my lonely mind It seems my life is through and I'm so goddam blue You were on my lonely mind
I'm gonna keep drinkin' till I can't move a toe And then maybe my heart won't hurt me so
There's a tear in my beer 'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear You were on my lonely mind
Lord, I've tried and I've tried But my tears I can't hide You were on my lonely mind
All these blues that I've found Have really got me down You are on my lonely mind
I'm gonna keep on drinkin' till I can't even think 'Cause in the last week I ain't slept a wink
There's a tear in my beer 'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear You were on my lonely mind

I miss her lips and the smile on her face The touch of her hair and this girl's warm embrace So if you don't want to cry like I do Keep away from Run-around Sue
Ah, she likes to travel around She'll love you but she'll put you down Now people let me put you wise Sue goes out with other guys Here's the moral and the story from the guy who knows I fell in love and my love still grows Ask any fool that she ever knew, they'll say Keep away from Run-around Sue

Ninguém Ninguém vai me segurar Ninguém há de me fechar As portas do coração Ninguém Ninguém vai me sujeitar A trancar no peito a minha paixão
Eu não Eu não vou desesperar Eu não vou renunciar Fugir Ninguém Ninguém vai me acorrentar Enquanto eu puder cantar Enquanto eu puder sorrir
Ninguém Ninguém vai me ver sofrer Ninguém vai me surpreender Na noite da solidão Pois quem Tiver nada pra perder Vai formar comigo o imenso cordão
E então Quero ver o vendaval Quero ver o carnaval Sair Ninguém Ninguém vai me acorrentar Enquanto eu puder cantar Enquanto eu puder sorrir Enquanto eu puder cantar Alguém vai ter que me ouvir Enquanto eu puder cantar Enquanto eu puder seguir Enquanto eu puder cantar Enquanto eu puder sorrir

There's A Small Hotel Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Lorenz Hart First performance/First recording/First release by: Doris Carson & Ray Bolger - 1936/Hal Kemp and His Orch. - 1936 Covered by multiple other artists
I'd like to get away, Junior Somewhere alone with you It could be oh, so gay, Junior You need a laugh or two
A certain place I know, Frankie Where funny people can have fun That's where the two will go, Darling Before you can count up One, two, three For...
There's a small hotel With a wishing well I wish that we were there together There's a bridal suite One room bright and neat Complete for us to share together
Looking through the window You can see a distant steeple Not a sign of people -- who wants people? When the steeple bell says "Good night, sleep well" We'll thank the small hotel together
We'll creep into our little shell And we will thank the small hotel together
Não sei a cor do perdão Nem o peso da pedra do sacrifício Só sei que quando estou só Sinto na pele Que me abrigo Pode ser o precipício Não sei quem chora por mim Quem inocentemente me condena E olhando a car fria do silêncio Tudo que faltar a gente inventa
Voz pra cantar Corda de aço Corda de aço desfiada Minha vida Só é vida porque sei Que ela será sempre apaixonada
Voz pra cantar Corda de aço Corda de aço desfiada Minha vida Só é vida porque sei Que ela vai morrer apaixonada
Run Run Run Composer(s): Lou Reed Performer(s): The Velvet Underground
Teenage Mary said to Uncle Dave I sold my soul, must be saved Gonna take a walk down Union Square you never know who you gonna find there
You gotta run-run-run-run-run take a drag or two Run-run-run-run-run gypsy death and you, tell you what to do
Margarita Passion I had to get her fixed she wasn't well, she's getting sick Went to sell her soul, she wasn't high didn't know things she could buy
And she would run-run-run-run-run take a drag or two Run-run-run-run-run gypsy death and you, tell you what to do
Seasick Sarah had a golden nose hard-nailed boots wrapped around her toes When she turned blue, all the angels screamed they didn't know, they couldn't make the scene
She had to run-run-run-run-run take a drag or two Run-run-run-run-run gypsy death and you, tell you what to do
Beardless Harry, what a waste couldn't even get a small town taste Rode the trolleys down to forty-seven figured if he was good, he'd get himself to heaven
'Cause he had to run-run-run-run-run take a drag or two Run-run-run-run-run gypsy death and you, tell you what to do
There's A Ship Rolling Home Composer(s): Jimmy Kennedy Performer(s): Ivy Benson; Vera Lynn
There's a ship rolling home on the lonely Atlantic Just an old rusty steamer of the seven seas There's a ship rolling home and she's nothing romantic But she'll sail through the gale as in a gentle breeze!
Ahoy! Sailor Ahoy! Oh just look at her smoke She'll sail you homeward with her heart of oak! There's a ship rolling home on the lonely Atlantic May the fair winds be with her as she's rollin' home
There's a ship rolling home on the lonely Atlantic May the fair winds be with her as she's rolling, rolling home

Num cantinho um violão Este amor uma canção Pra fazer feliz a quem se ama Muita calma pra pensar E ter tempo pra sonhar Da janela vê-se o Corcovado O Redentor que lindo
Quero a vida sempre assim Com você perto de mim Até o apagar da velha chama E eu que era triste descrente desse mundo Ao encontrar você eu conheci O que é felicidade meu amor
Run To The Hills Composer(s): Steve Harris Performer(s): Iron Maiden; Mauron Maiden; Mental Overdrive; Steve Overland
White man came across the sea Brought us pain and misery Killed our tribes killed our creed Took our game for his own need
We fought him hard we fought him well Out on the plains we gave him hell But many came too much for Cree Oh will we ever be set free?
Riding through dustclouds and barren wastes Galloping hard on the plains Chasing the redskins back to their holes Fighting them at their own game Murder for freedom a stab in the back Women and children and cowards attack
Run to the hills run for your lives Run to the hills run for your lives
Soldier blue on the barren wastes Hunting and killing their game Raping the women and wasting the men The only good Indians are tame Selling them whisky and taking their gold Enslaving the young and destroying the old
Run to the hills run for your lives (repeat to end)
