    They Didn't Believe Me
    Composer(s): Herbert Reynolds - Jerome Kern
    First performance by: Julia Sanderson and Donald Brian - 1914
    Covered by multiple other artists



    (he)
    Got the cutest little way
    Like to watch you all the day
    And it certainly seems fine
    Just to think that you'll be mine
    When I see your pretty smile
    Makes the living worth the while
    So I've got to run around
    Telling people what I've found

    Refrain

    (Boy)
    And when I told them how beautiful you are
    They didn't believe me
    They didn't believe me!
    Your lips, your eyes, your cheeks, your hair
    Are in a class beyond compare
    You're the loviest girl that one could see!
    And when I tell them
    And I cert'nly am goin' to tell them
    That I'm the man whose wife one day you'll be
    They'll never believe me
    They'll never believe me
    That from this great big world you've chosen me!

    (she)
    Don't know how it happened quite
    May have been the summer night
    May have been, well, who can say
    Things just happen any way
    All I know is I said "yes!"
    Hesitating more or less
    And you kissed me where I stood
    Just like any fellow would

    Refrain

    (Girl)
    And when I told them how wonderful you are
    They didn't believe me
    They didn't believe me!
    Your lips, your eyes, your curly hair
    Are in a class beyond compare
    You're the lovliest thing that one could see!
    And when I tell them
    And I cert'nly am goin' to tell them
    That I'm the girl whose boy one day you'll be
    They'll never believe me
    They'll never believe me
    That from this great big world you've chosen me!

    Couleurs Vous Êtes Des Larmes
    Composer(s): Guy Béart
    Performer(s): Guy Béart



    Dors mon enfant c'est déjà l'heure
    Ça ne sert à rien que tu pleures
    Dans tes yeux couleur d'arc-en-ciel
    Il y a des larmes de sel
    Couleurs vous êtes des larmes
    Couleurs vous êtes des pleurs

    Elle est en couleur mon histoire
    Il était blanc elle était noire
    La foule est grise grise alors
    Il y aura peut-être un mort
    Couleurs vous êtes des larmes
    Couleurs vous êtes des pleurs

    Il lui a donné des cerises
    Et noire sa main les a prises
    Et rouge sa bouche a mordu
    Il y a demain un pendu
    Couleurs vous êtes des larmes
    Couleurs vous êtes des pleurs

    Voici des fleurs toutes bien faites
    De la rose à la violette
    Le bouquet qu'il lui a offert
    Etait bleu rouge jaune et vert
    Couleurs vous êtes des larmes
    Couleurs vous êtes des pleurs

    Ils ont couru jusqu'au rivage
    Ils riaient de tout leur visage
    Ils se sont baignés dans la mer
    Il y aura des revolvers

    La mer est bleue pour tout le monde
    Pour les peaux brunes et les peaux blondes
    Quand l'homme s'y baigne en passant
    Il y a des gouttes de sang
    Couleurs vous êtes des larmes
    Couleurs vous êtes des pleurs

    Ce sang qui coule jusqu'à terre
    Mon enfant ferme tes paupières
    Pourvu que tu ne saches rien
    Ce sang qui coule c'est le tien
    Couleurs vous êtes des larmes
    Couleurs vous êtes des pleurs

    Les larmes sont partout pareilles
    Sèche tes yeux qui s'ensommeillent
    Dors mon enfant ne pleure pas
    Tu ne sais pas encore pourquoi
    Couleurs vous êtes des larmes
    Couleurs vous êtes des pleurs

    J'Ai Appris Alors
    Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



    Je n'ai jamais connu mon père
    On dit que ma mère non plus
    Aussi j'ai grandi sans manière
    Sans que personne ne m'ait reconnu
    Enfant je fauchais aux étalages
    Ce que ma mère ne pouvait m'acheter
    Il faut bien manger à tout âge
    J'ai appris alors à tricher

    A quinze ans au marché au puces
    J'ai reçu un grand choc au coeur
    Une fille qu'avait seize ans au plus
    Et balancée comme le bonheur
    Je la guettais au coin de la rue
    Rien que pour la regarder passer
    Elle avait une mine ingénue
    J'ai appris alors à rêver

    Un jour fatigué de la suivre
    Je lui ai parlé simplement
    En ce cas-là ce qui arrive
    Est arrivé évidemment
    On s'est fait des milliers de promesses
    Se jurant de toujours s'aimer
    Et quand j'ai cueilli sa jeunesse
    J'ai appris alors à chanter

    Mais elle est partie sans rien dire
    Un matin je ne sais pourquoi
    Je suis resté là à sourire
    Dieu que l'on est bête parfois
    Jour après jour, heure après heure
    J'ai appris ce qu'était pleurer
    Et comme son souvenir demeure
    Faut que j'apprenne à oublier

    Don't You Know It
    Composer(s): Les Vandyke
    Performer(s): Adam Faith



    I know that love is blind
    Don't you know it
    Don't you know it

    And I know that love's unkind
    Don't you know it
    Don't you know it

    And love can break your heart
    Like a windowpane
    If you don't want to know
    Well, it's about time you did

    I know that love's a power
    Don't you know it
    Don't you know it

    Your love's like a poison flower
    Don't you know it
    Don't you know it

    One kiss upon your deadly lips
    And I feel the pain
    If you don't want to know
    Well, it's about time you did

    One day your lesson will be learned
    And you won't hurt me no more
    Wait till you hear me laughin'
    You'll know the score

    You'll know that love is cruel
    Well, don't you know it
    Don't you know it

    And you'll know you've been a fool
    Well, don't you know it
    Don't you know it

    One look and you'll see me
    Standing here all alone
    Then if you wanna know
    It'll be about time you did

    Don't you know it
    Don't you know it

    Don't you...

    Couleur Menthe À L'eau
    Composer(s): Eddy Mitchell; Pierre Papadiamandis
    Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell



    Elle était maquillée
    Comme une star de ciné
    Accoudée au Juke box
    la la la la
    Elle revait qu'elle posait
    Juste pour un bout d'essai
    À la century fox
    la la la la
    Elle semblait bien dans sa peau
    Ses yeux couleur menthe à l'eau
    Cherchaient du regard un spot
    Le dieu projecteur
    Et moi je n'en pouvais plus
    Bien sur elle ne m'a pas vu
    Perdue dans sa megalo
    Moi j'etais de trop

    Elle marchait comme un chat
    Qui méprise sa proie
    Ou frolant le flipper
    La chanson qui couvrait
    Tous les mots qu'elle mimait
    Semblait briser son cœur
    Elle en faisait un peu trop
    La fille yeux aux couleur menthe à l'eau
    Holywood est dans sa tête
    Tout'seule elle répéte
    Son entrée dans un studio
    Décor couleur menthe à l'eau
    Perdue dans sa megalo
    Moi je suis de trop

    Mais un type est entré
    Et le charme est tombé
    Arretant le flipper
    Ses yeux noirs ont lancé
    De l'agressivité
    Sur le pauvre juke box
    La fille aux yeux couleur menthe à l'eau
    A rangé sa megalo
    Et s'est soumise aux yeux noirs
    Couleur de trottoir
    Et moi je n'en pouvais plus
    Elle n'en a jamais rien su
    Ma plus jolie des mythos
    Couleur menthe à l'eau

    They Can't Take That Away From Me
    ((Dutch Version: Dat Nemen Ze Me Nooit Meer Af (Robert Long) - 1997))
    Composer(s): George Gershwin - Ira Gershwin
    First performance by: Fred Astaire - 1937
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Our romance won't end on a sorrowful note
    Though by tomorrow you're gone
    The song is ended, but as the songwriter wrote
    The melody lingers on
    They may take you from me, I'll miss your fond caress
    But though they take you from me, I'll still possess

    The way you wear your hat
    The way your sip your tea
    The memory of all that
    No, no, they can't take that away from me

    The way your smile just beams
    The way you sing off key
    The way you haunt my dreams
    No, no, they can't take that away from me

    We may never, never meet again
    On the bumpy road to love
    Still, I'll always, always keep the memory of

    The way you hold your knife
    The way we danced till three
    The way you changed my life
    No, no, they can't take that away from me
    No, they can't take that away from me

    W e may never, never meet again
    On the bumpy road to love
    Still, I'll always, always keep the memory of

    The way you hold your knife
    The way we danced till three
    The way you changed my life
    No, no, they can't take that away from me
    No, they can't take that away from me
    Can't take that away
    Can't take that away from me

    J'aime ta couleur café
    Tes cheveux café
    Ta gorge café
    J'aime quand pourmoi tu danses
    Alors j'entends murmurer
    Tous tes bracelets
    Jolis bracelets
    A tes pieds ils se balancent

    Couleur café
    Que j'aime ta couleur café

    C'est quand même fou l'effet
    L'effet que ça fait
    De te voir rouler
    Ainsi des yeux et des hanches
    Si tu fais comme le café
    Rien qu'à m'énerver
    Rien qu'à m'exciter
    Ce soir la nuit sera blanche

    Couleur café
    Que j'aime ta couleur café

    L'amour sans philosopher
    C'est comme le café
    Très vite passé
    Mais que veux-tu que j'y fasse
    On en a marre de café
    Et c'est terminé
    Pour tout oublier
    On attend que ça se tasse

    Couleur café
    Que j'aime ta couleur café

    Ingen vet, det jag vet, en hemlighet
    Någon som jag tycker om har gjort mig het
    Kan jag hjälpa att jag känner det så här?

    Och den blick som jag fick, den sa mig allt
    Det jag vill, kan jag nog få, tusenfalt
    Å, nu börjar jag förstå att jag är kär

    Ref.
    Jag vill vara din, Margareta
    Bara vara din, ska Du veta
    Stå där vid din dörr, kär som aldrig förr
    Men vågar inte ringa
    Pulsarna dom bränner så heta
    känner Du som jag, Margareta
    Blickarna Du gav, gav Du dom som svar eller ej?

    Och jag går hem igen med din bukett
    Det jag vill säga dig är inte lätt
    Kan inte hjälpa att jag känner det så här

    Jag vill vara din Margareta...

    They Can’t Black Out The Moon
    Performer(s): Harry Roy & Helen Clare



    When we go strolling in the park at night
    All the darkness is a boon
    Who cares if we’re without a light
    They can’t black out the moon

    I see you smiling in the cigarette glow
    Though the picture fades too soon
    But I see all I want to know
    They can’t black out the moon

    We don’t grumble, we don’t worry about a lot
    Oh, when will you stumble, you stumble into my arms
    And when you kiss me, don’t you realise
    That my heart’s like a big balloon
    And like the lovelight in your eyes
    They can’t black out the moon

    Runnin' through this business of life
    Rarely time if I'm needed to
    Ain't so funny when things ain't feelin' right
    Then daddy's hand helps to see me through
    Sweet as sugar, love won't wash away
    Rain or shine, it's always here to stay
    All these years you and I've spent together
    All this, we just couldn't stand the weather

    Like a train that stops at every station
    We all deal with trials and tribulations
    Fear hangs the fellow that ties up his years
    Entangled in yellow and cries all his tears
    Changes come before we can grow
    Learn to see them before we're too old
    Don't just take me for tryin' to be heavy
    Understand, it's time to get ready for the storm

    Sommarkväll, junikväll
    Himlens stjärnor lyser
    Alla mänskor sover
    Stan har gått till ro
    Här står vi, du och jag
    Men mitt hjärta fryser
    Du har mött en annan
    Du ska lämna mej

    Jag vill att du ska bli lycklig
    Jag hoppas att hon älskar dej som jag gör
    Vår tid tillsammans blev för kort
    Men tiden står nu aldrig still
    Jag vill att du ska bli lycklig
    Och hoppas hon kan ge dej det du saknat
    Vårt liv blev inte som vi tänkt
    Min kärlek räckte inte till

    Jag står här nära dej
    Förstår du hur jag känner?
    Klockan är visst mycket
    Stan är all för tyst
    Sommarkväll, junikväll
    Mina ögon bränner
    Snart ska du försvinna
    Bort ifrån mitt liv

    Men tiden står nu aldrig still
    Jag vill att du ska bli lycklig
    Och hoppas hon kan ge dej det du saknat
    Vårt liv blev inte som vi tänkt
    Min kärlek räckte inte till

    Jag står här nära dej
    Förstår du hur jag känner?
    Klockan är visst mycket
    Stan är all för tyst

    They Called It The Dixie Blues
    Composer(s): Jack Strouse



    Ragtime Joe with his old banjo
    Wanted to compose
    Sent for Sloan and his saxophone
    Said "listen to me, Mose
    We'll write a song about the South
    And before we're through
    We'll steal those Southern melodies like all the composers do"
    And it wasn't very long before they had a Southern song

    Ragtime Joe said now listen, Moe
    Let's sail o'er the sea
    We'll look 'round and we may jot down a foreign melody"
    They went to Belgium, England, France, searched to beat the band
    They couldn't find tunes that compared
    With those down in Dixieland
    Then they said "I guess we'll stop, there's nothing here for us to cop"

    They took a little bit of Old Black Joe
    to start off their refrain
    kept strummin', kept strummin'
    that old familiar strain
    and they took a little bit of Swanee River
    and looked around until they found Massa's in the cold, cold ground
    and then they took four bars of My Old Kentucky Home
    Those Southern tunes they tried hard to confuse
    they couldn't lose
    away down South in the land of cotton
    there was nothing they'd forgotten
    When it was done and rolled into
    one they called it the Dixie Blues

    Couldn't Get It Right
    Composer(s): Colin F.R. Cooper; John William Cuffley; Peter John Haycock; Derek John Holt; Frederick J. Jones
    First release by: Climax Blues Band - 1976



    Time was drifting, this rock had got to roll
    So I hit the road and made my getaway
    Restless feeling, really got a hold
    I started searching for a better way

    But I kept on looking for a sign
    In the middle of the night
    But I couldn't see the light
    No I couldn't see the light
    I kept on looking for a way
    To take me through the night
    I couldn't get it right
    I couldn't get it right

    L.A. fever made me feel alright
    But I must admit it got the best of me
    Getting down, so deep
    I could have drowned
    Now, I can't get back the way I used to be

    But I kept on looking for a sign
    In the middle of the night
    But I couldn't see the light
    No I couldn't see the light
    I kept on looking for a way
    To take me through the night
    I couldn't get it right
    I couldn't get it right

    New York City took me with the tide
    And I nearly died from hospitality
    Left me stranded, took away my pride
    Just another no account fatality

    But I kept on looking for a sign
    In the middle of the night
    But I couldn't see the light
    No I couldn't see the light
    I kept on looking for a way
    To take me through the night
    I couldn't get it right
    I couldn't get it right

    Jag Var Sa Kär
    Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
    Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



    Säg, kan du förlåta
    Mina hårda ord när jag gick?
    Det jag sa kunde låta
    Som om du aldrig tillbaka mig fick
    Jag trodde jag var kär
    I den vännen som jag svek dig för

    Men nu först förstår jag
    Att det var ett misstag av mig
    För det är du, bara du
    Som framför mig står
    Vartän jag går

    En gång, för länge sedan
    Var jag din och allt var så bra
    En gång, var jag lycklig
    Det var då jag tillhörde dig
    Men nu så går jag ensam
    På de platser, de där vi var, vi två

    Och nu först förstår jag
    Att det var ett misstag av mig
    För det är du, bara du
    Som framför mig står
    Vartän jag går

    Ja, nu först förstår jag
    Att det var ett misstag av mig
    För det är du, bara du
    Som framför mig står
    Vartän jag går
    Vartän jag går

    They Call The Wind Maria
    Composer(s): Frederick Loewe - Alan Jay Lerner
    First performance by: Rufus Smith - 1951
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Maria
    Maria
    They call the wind Maria

    Away out here they gotta name
    For rain and wind and fire
    The rain is Tess, the fire's Joe
    And they call the wind Maria

    Maria blows the stars around
    And sends the clouds a-flyin
    Maria makes the mountains sound
    Like folks were up there dyin'

    Maria
    Maria
    They call the wind Maria

    Before I knew Maria's name
    I heard her wail and whining
    I had a girl and she had me
    And the sun was always shining

    But then one day I left my girl
    I left her far behind me
    And now I'm lost, so gol-durned lost
    Not even God can find me

    Maria
    Maria
    They call the wind Maria

    Out here they gotta name for rain
    For wind and fire only
    But when you're lost and all alone
    There ain't no word but lonely

    And I'm a lost and lonely man
    Without a star to guide me
    Maria, blow my love to me
    I need my girl beside me

    Maria
    Maria
    They call the wind Maria

    Maria
    Maria
    Blow my love to me

    Could You Please Oblige Us With A Bren Gun?
    Composer(s): Noel Coward
    Performer(s): Noel Coward



    Colonel Montmorency who was in Calcutta in ninety-two
    Emerged from his retirement for the War
    He wasn't very pleased with all he heard and all he saw
    But whatever he felt, he tightened his belt and organised a Corps

    Poor Colonel Montmorency thought considering all the wars he'd faught
    The Home Guard was his job to do or die
    But after days and weeks and years, bravely drying his many tears
    He wrote the following letter to the Minister of Supply

    Couls you please oblige us with a Bren gun?
    Or failing that, a hand grenade will do
    We've got some ammunition, in a rather damp condition
    And Major Huss has a arquebus that was used at Waterloo

    With the Vicar's stirrup pump, a pitchfork and a stave
    It's rather hard to guard an aerodrome
    So if you can't oblige us with a Bren gun
    The Home Guard might as well go home

    Could you please oblige us with a Bren gun?
    We're getting awfully tired of drawing lots
    Today we had a shipment of some curious equipment
    And just for a prank, they sent us a tank that ties itself in knots

    On Sunday's mock invasion, Captain Clark was heard to say
    He hadn't even got a brush and comb
    So if you can't oblige us with a Bren gun
    The Home Guard might as well go home

    Colonel Montmorency planned, in case the enemy tried to land
    To drive them back with skill and armoured force
    He realised his army should be mechanised, of course
    But somewhere inside, experience cried "My Kingdom for a horse"

    Poor Colonel Montmorency tried, at infinite cost to time and pride
    To tackle his superiors again
    Having just one motorbike, fourteen swords and a marlin spike
    He wrote the following letter in the following urgent strain

    Could you please oblige us with a Bren gun?
    We need it very badly, I'm afraid
    Our local crossword solver has an excellent revolver
    But during a short attack on a fort, the trigger got mislaid

    In course of operations planned for Friday afternoon
    Our orders are to storm the Hippodrome
    So if you can't oblige us with a Bren gun
    The Home Guard might as well go home

    Could you please oblige us with a Bren gun?
    The lack of one is wounding to our pride
    Last night we found the cutest, little German parachutist
    He looked at our kit and giggled a bit, and laughed until he cried

    We'll have to hide that armoured car when marching through Berlin
    We'd almost be ashamed of it in Rome
    So if you can't oblige us with a Bren gun
    The Home Guard might as well go home

    Jag Skall Inte Fälla Nagra Tarar
    English Title: I Won't Shed Any Tears
    Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
    Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



    Jag skall inte fälla några tårar när du går
    Inte heller be dig stanna kvar
    Jag ska nog bli kär igen
    Det finns så många andra män
    Tack ändå för allt som var

    Du behöver inte alls bekymra dej för mej
    Ensamheten känner jag så väl
    Sluta att förklara dej, ja
    Snälla du bespara mej
    Alla dina dumma skäl

    Säkert blir det tomt efter dej
    Får nog ganska svårt att vänja mej
    Sånt du glömde kvar
    Saker som man spar
    Dom minner om allt det som var

    Kanske gör jag fel som inte visar hur det känns
    Jag är säkert stoltare än du
    Vill så gärna krama dej
    Men det är nåt som hindrar mej
    Varför ska jag tveka nu.

    Säkert blir det tomt efter dej
    Får nog ganska svårt att vänja mej
    Sånt du glömde kvar
    Saker som man spar
    Dom minner om allt det som var

    Jag skall inte fälla några tårar när du går
    Inte heller be dig stanna kvar
    Jag ska nog bli kär igen
    Det finns så många andra män
    Tack ändå för allt som var

    They Asked About You
    Composer(s): Freddy Weller - Kim Nash - Bill Nash
    Performer(s): Reba McEntire



    Saturday night
    Out on the town
    Feeling so sure of myself
    Meeting some friends
    Sharing some laughs
    Not thinking of anything else
    Then one of them leaned over my shoulder
    And all at once the party was over

    They asked about you
    And suddenly it all came back to me
    Then all the walls around my heart
    Came crashing at my feet
    When they asked about you
    (Oh) They asked about you
    I was doing OK
    Until they asked about you

    How could they know
    What it would do
    All they did was mention your name
    And just like that
    The hurting was back
    That's when I knew nothing had changed
    What a time for old memories to find me
    Just when I thought I'd put 'em behind me

    They asked about you
    And suddenly it all came back to me
    Then all the walls around my heart
    Came crashing at my feet
    When they asked about you
    (Oh) They asked about you
    I was doing OK
    Until they asked about you

    Could You Be Loved
    Composer(s): Bob Marley
    First release by: Bob Marley - 1980
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Could you be loved and be loved
    Could you be loved and be loved

    Don't let them fool you
    Or even try to school you, oh! no
    We've got a mind of our own
    So go to hell if what you're thinking
    Is not right
    Love would never leave us alone
    In the darkness there must come out to light

    Could you be loved and be loved
    Could you be loved and be loved

    The road of life is rocky
    And you may stumble too
    So while you point your fingers
    Someone else is judging you
    Love you brotherman

    Could you be, could you be, could you be loved
    Could you be, could you be loved

    Don't let them change you
    Or even rearrange you, oh! no
    We've got a life to live
    They say only, only
    Only the fittest of the fittest shall survive
    Stay alive

    Could you be loved and be loved
    Could you be loved and be loved

    You ain't gonna miss your water
    Until your well runs dry
    No matter how you treat him
    The man will never be satisfied

    Could you be, could you be, could you be loved
    Could you be, could you be loved

    Say something, say something
    Say something
    Reggae, reggae
    Say something
    Rockers, rockers
    Say something could you be loved
