Toch Ben Je Oma
Performer(s): Louis Neefs



Jij hebt toch nog altijd dat mondaine in je tred
Jij bent 's morgensvroeg altijd het eerste uit ons bed
En jij zingt nog steeds hetzelfde lied aan 't ontbijt
En jij bent die zwieper uit je heupen nog niet kwijt
Jij draagt nog japonnen met een tikje olala
Af en toe, dan loopt een vreemde man jou nog 's na
Kijk, dat zijn toch dingen die belangrijk zijn voor jou
Nee, jij staat nog lang niet in de kou

Toch ben je 'n oma, een echte oma
Zo'n oma waar ik trots op ben
M'n kloek, m'n goed gebouwde hen
Toch ben je 'n oma, een echte oma
Met al een kleinzoon van een jaar
En opa in de twijfelaar

Als ik jou zie lopen in bikini, werk'lijk waar
Denk ik wel 's: 'Ach, misschien is dit het laatste jaar'
Maar dat denk ik nu al zoveel zomers op een rij
Door een hapje minder ben j'r ieder jaar weer bij
Met je strakke rokken en wat duurder ondergoed
Zit toch alles nog precies zoals het zitten moet
Kijk, dat zijn toch dingen die belangrijk zijn voor jou
Nee, jij staat nog lang niet in de kou

Toch ben je 'n oma, een echte oma
Zo'n oma waar ik trots op ben
M'n kloek, m'n goed gebouwde hen
Toch ben je 'n oma, een echte oma
Met al een kleinzoon van een jaar
En opa in de twijfelaar

Jij hebt toch nog altijd zo dat hippe in je stiel
Jij laat je nog pakken door de tandarts, voor tien mille
Hier een kroontje, daar een brug, hij maakt jouw bekkie pas
Jij vindt alles beter dan jouw tandjes in het glas
Af en toe wil jij nog wel een keertje op de toer
Zomaar voor een aardigheidje, nee geen grand amour
Kijk, dat zijn toch dingen die belangrijk zijn voor jou
Nee, jij staat nog lang niet in de kou

Toch ben je 'n oma, een echte oma
Zo'n oma waar ik trots op ben
M'n kloek, m'n goed gebouwde hen
Toch ben je 'n oma, een echte oma
Met al een kleinzoon van een jaar
En opa in de twijfelaar

I Don't Want To Know
Composer(s): Chris White
Performer(s): The Zombies



If you can't find better things to do
Than tell me stories about her that you think are true
I don't wanna hear anything about her that's bad
I don't wanna hear anything that makes me sad
I don't want to know (I don't want to know)
I don't want to know (I don't want to know)
I don't want to know; you'd better turn around and go
I don't want to know

I don't wanna listen; I'm not gonna hear you
I believe what I want, no matter what you do
I believe what I want, no matter what you do
I believe what I want, no matter what you do

I don't care, don't want another word of anything you say
I don't wanna hear anything; you just keep away
I don't want to know (I don't want to know)
I don't want to know (I don't want to know)
I don't want to know; you'd better turn around and go
I don't want to know

Jesse
Composer(s): Janis Ian
Performer(s): Roberta Flack;
and various other artists



Jesse, come home, there's a hole in the bed
Where we slept, now it's growing cold
Jesse, your face and the place where we lay
By the hearth, all apart, it hangs on my heart
And I'm leaving the light on the stairs
No, I'm not scared -- I wait for you
Hey Jesse, it's lonely, come home

Jesse, the stairs and the hall, recalling
Your step, and I remember too
All the pictures are shaded and fading in gray
And I still set a place at the table at noon
And I'm leaving the light on the stairs
No, I'm not scared -- I wait for you
Hey Jesse, it's lonely, come home

Jesse, the spread on the bed, it's like
When you left, I kept it for you
All the blues and the greens have been recently cleaned
And are seemingly new -- Hey Jess, me and you
Will swallow the light on the stairs
I'll fix up my hair, we'll sleep unaware
Hey Jesse, it's lonely, come home

Tocando Fondo
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez 
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



Tocando fondo
Tocando fondo nací un buen día
tocando fondo ando todavía
Menos hermosos que como fuera
menos odioso que de otra manera

Me declaro imperfecto
pateando la sombrilla
Prefiero ser abierto
a pasearme anunciando
que soy la maravilla

Me publico completo
me detesto probable
Si uno no se desnuda
se transfigura en reto
todo lo desnudable

Tocando fondo, como ir cantando
es algo hondo, que no anda esperando
No tocar duro nuestras verdades
levantando muros, pudre capitales

Quizás sea inoportuno
o acaso delirante
Soy de tantas maneras
como gente pretenda
nomás calificarme

Asumirse los fueros
es no dictaminarse
Me publico completo
me espero mejorable
desde mi parlamento
de guitarra sonante

Tocando fondo nací un buen día
tocando fondo ando todavía

I was born in a trunk
My mama died and my daddy got drunk
And they left me to die or grow
Up in the middle of Tobacco Road

I grew up in a rusty shack
All I owned was a hangin' on my bony back
Only Lord knows how I loathe
This place called Tobacco Road

But it's home
The only life I ever, ever know
Yeah, but the Lord knows how I loathe
Tobacco Road

Gonna leave it, get me a job

With the help and the grace of God, no matter
Save my money, get rich I know
Bring it back to Tobacco Road

Bring dynamite and a crane
I'm gonna blow it up and start all over again
I'm gonna build a town be proud to show
Keep the name Tobacco Road

I despise you 'cos you're so fïlthy
But I love you 'cos you're home

I know that it's getting late
but I don't want to go home

Listen to the man sing his song
I don't want to go home
I don't mind baby to stay all night long
'cause I don't want to go home

Listen baby

I know we had to try
to reach up and touch the sky baby
what ever happened to you and I
that I don't want to go home

Look at all the people staying
Saying I don't want to go home
In the night .....
I don't want to go home
I know the words to the song I feel
I don't want to go home
I know it's talking about the way I feel
I don't want to go home

Listen baby

I know we had to try
to reach up and touch the sky baby
what ever happened to you and I
that I don't want to go home

I want to hear people laughing and having a good time
I want to know why she told me she had to go
Why did she leave me lonely

I know it's time to go
but I don't want to go home
You don't play the blues soft and low
'cause I don't want to go home

Listen baby

I know we had to try
to reach up and touch the sky baby
what ever happened to you and I
that I don't want to go home

That I'm in heaven again
Because you've come back to me

And Jesse, I'll always make the wine cold for you
Oh Jesse, I can easily change my mind about you
And put on cologne and sit by the phone for you
Oh yeah

Jesse, lets open the wine
And drink to the heart
Which has a will of it's own
My friends (My friends)
It's tough for them
They're feeling bad
They think I've sunk so low

Toad In The Hole
Performer(s): Ian Anderson



I walk along the strand
to catch the late ride home
Shuttle through the evening gloom
knowing I forgot to phone
The back door's open
There's a chill blowing in
Take your warm hands off me
Let the night begin
Shush your mouth
Listen to me
I won't say nothing 
Just let me be your
Toad in the Hole
Kicking through the wet leaves lying
all along the station road
Past tired graffitti wailing
raw emotion to unload
There's coal in the fireplace
and money in the bank too
Deep-pile carpets, tinsel wallpaper
Still got the back room to do
Don't be late
Got a day's work behind me
Feel a little devastated
but my nights are assigned to you
No tom-cat creeping, now
could ever be so bold
to hang around our place tonight
when I come in from the cold
There's a straight-six in the garage
and some fine wine to cool
Labour-savers in the kitchen
room in the garden for a pool
Shush your mouth
Let imagination run
here in bed-sit heaven
where all the best wishing's done
to warm Toad in the Hole

I Don’t Want To Fall In Love Again
Composer(s): Carl Perkins
Performer(s): Carl Perkins



Move on over closer to me baby
For I can see that wantin’ in your eyes
Oh, I think it’s only fair that I should warn you
That you probably only stay for just a while

Oh, we’ll just let our bodies do the talking
 ‘ Cause words can only get in the way
Oh, I’ll take you home and love you like you never been
But I don’t wanna fall in love again

I’ve been watching you girl from the corner
And you looked as lonesome as I ever been
Now, nothing could be wrong if you just come along with me
And wake up in the morning, as friends

I don’t wanna hurt you, ‘cause I know girl
What promises of love can do to you
Oh, but I’ll take you home and love you like you never been
But I don’t want to fall in love again

For love I might not need
Let me feel your poor lips touching me
We’ll just let our bodies do the talking
‘Cause words can only get in the way

Oh, I’ll take you home and love you like you never been
But I don’t want to fall in love
And I ain’t gonna fall in love
I don’t want to fall in love again
(I don’t want to fall in love again)

Jerusalén Año Cero
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



De mano en mano se pasa la verdad
y en cada mano olvidará
algo de cierto y también se llevará
de cada mano el parecer
Si camináramos calendario atrás
todo estaría al revés

Algunos dicen que es falso
y otros repiten que es cierto
que entró en Jerusalén siendo de día
se dice que su túnica era blanca
que iba posada en sus ojos
un ave del mediodía

Aquel fue tiempo de tumbas
aquel fue tiempo de flautas
de mercaderes, de Legión Romana
Se dice que la chusma lo seguía
que en su palabra sencilla
se lavaba la mañana

El Rey de los judíos
el hijo de los hombres
El Cristo, El Nazareno
lo llamaban

Jerusalén año cero y se cambió
la suerte con lo que pasó
Jerusalén, año cero y Nazaret
y el caserío de Belén
Jerusalén año cero fue el lugar
donde ocurrió, o donde no

Fue enemigo del Imperio
y amigo de la palabra
decía que todo era para todos
se dice que enseñaba a los pastores
a compartir las ovejas
y a cuidarse de los lobos

Tanta enseñanza hizo ruido
en el poder de los templos
y en la madera lo clavaron recio
Se dijo que por mago o hechicero
pero si la historia es cierta
fue porque hiciera silencio

El Rey de los judíos
el hijo de los hombres
El Cristo, El Nazareno
lo llamaban

East Side Of Heaven

Performer(s): Bing Crosby 
and multiple other artists



I know an angel on the east side of Heaven
Who lives in a first storey room
We meet on a rooftop and dream in the dark
When the lights of New York are in bloom

All through the daytime it's the same old Manhattan
But evening again sets me free
Then I turn off Broadway to the east side of heaven
Where an angel waits for me

All through the daytime it's the same old Manhattan
But evening again sets me free
Then I turn off Broadway to the east side of Heaven
Where an angel waits for me

Jerusalem Tomorrow

James King; David Olney



Man you should have seen me way back then 
I could tell a tale, I could make a spin 
I could tell you black was white I could tell you day was night 
Not only that I could tell you why 
Back then I could really tel a lie 

Well I'd hire a kid to say he was lame 
Then I'd touch him and make him walk again 
Then I'd pull some magic trick I'd pretend to heal the sick 
I was takin' everything they had to give 
It wasn't all that bad a way to live 

Well I'm in this desert town and it's hot as hell 
But no one's buyin' what I got to sell 
I make my lame kid walk I make a dumb guy talk 
I'm preachin' up a storm both night and day 
But everyone just turns and walks away 

Well I can see that I'm only wasting time 
So I head across the road to drink some wine 
This old man comes up to me He says I seen you on the street 
You're pretty good if I do say myself 
But the guy that come thru here last month he was somethin' else 

Instead of callin' out for fire from above 
He just gets real quiet and talks about love 
And I'll tell you somethin' funny He didn't want nobody's money 
Now I'm not exactly sure what this all means 
But it's the damndest thing I swear I've ever seen 

Well since that time every town is the same 
I can't make a dime, I don't know why I came 
I decide I'll go and find him And find out who's behind him 
He has everyone convinced that he's for real 
Well I figure we can work us out a deal 

So he offers me a job and I say fine 
He says I'll get paid off on down the line 
Well I guess I'll string along Don't see how too much can go wrong 
As long as he pays my way I guess I'll follow 
We're headed for Jerusalem tomorrow

Since you took my heart
I can give you everything
So I'll give my everything to you, my love

Coming back to give my love
Now I'm coming home

To the one I'm dreaming of, to you, my love
Long to be near you and hold you and kiss you, my sweet
When I am with you, I know that my life is complete
Now I'm coming home

Coming back to give my love

To yo-ou, my love

Jerusalem
Composer(s): Hubert Parry; William Blake
(Traditional)



And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?

And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among these dark Satanic mills?

Bring me my bow of burning gold
Bring me my arrows of desire
Bring me my spear 
O clouds unfold!
Bring me my chariot of fire!

I will not cease from mental fight
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land

East Orange, New Jersey
Performer(s): Bob Dylan



First time I ever worked in East Orange, New Jersey 
Folks, never go to East Orange, New Jersey
It's a horrible town
I one had to play in a coffeehouse out there
It was so bad -- uh -- so bad
People playing chess out there -- uh --
It's all they thought about
Was chess 'n' chess 'n' chess
People come up to me
You play a song, you play a real quiet song'
In the middle of the song ya hear "check"
And "Hey, that was a good move"
And all kinds of stuff like that
Yes, folks, it was so bad I had a little dream out there
The first night I worked
About this chess playing stuff
I dreamed I went to work out in East Orange, New Jersey
And -- uh -- about the time I quit in two days
I went there to ask the guy for my money
"I worked two days for you"
He says, "Uh, well, o.k., we don't pay money around here, though"
I says, "Uh, yeah?" He says, "Uh, well"
He says, "Uh, we pay chessmen"
I said, "Uh, well, gimme my chessmen then 
I worked for two days"

I was sort of -- didn't really figure --
I thought he was lying at first
But I took it anyway
He gave me a king and a queen for working two days
I says, "Uh, fine, that's o.k."
So I took my king and queen, went down to a bar, the nearest bar I could find
I walked in the bar and ordered a pint 
Down the bar, the bartender
I says, "Can I have a pint?"
I'll be damned, he give me a pint 
He asks me for the money
I gave him my king and queen 
I'll be damned, he took that king and queen
Threw it under the counter
And brought me out four pawns, two bishops, and a rook for change

I Don't Want To
Composer(s): Janice Torre; Fred Spielman
First release by: Elvis Presley - 1962



I don't want to, I don't want to
I don't want to let you know how much I want you
Don't come near me, I don't trust you
I don't trust the way you thrill me when I touch you

I was happy free and easy, I could go around
And do the things that please me
I don't want to get tied down with a girl like you
I don't want to ... love you, but I do

I was happy free and easy, I could go around
