I Love A Rainy Night Composer(s): Malloy; Eddie Rabbitt; Stevens Performer(s): Eddie Rabbitt
Well I love a rainy night Well I love a rainy night I love to hear the thunder Watch the lightning When it lights up the sky You know it makes me feel good
Well I love a rainy night It's such a beautiful sight I love to feel the rain On my face To taste the rain on my lips In the moonlight shadow
Showers wash All my cares away I wake up to a sunny day 'Cause I love a rainy night Yes I love a rainy night Well I love a rainy night Well I love a rainy night
Well I love a rainy night Well I love a rainy night I love to hear the thunder Watch the lightning When it lights up the sky You know it makes me feel good
Puts a song In this heart of mine Puts a smile on my face every time 'Cause I love a rainy night Yes I love a rainy night Ooh I love a rainy night Yeah I love a rainy night
Showers wash All my cares away I wake up to a sunny day 'Cause I love a rainy night Yes I love a rainy night Well I love a rainy night Well I love a rainy night
J'rêvais d'un vélo Et j'ai trois bagnoles Télé et frigo Ça irait tout seul Mais y'a un' p'tite chose qui m'ennuie C'est d'me voir le jour et la nuit Toujours la même gueule Toujours la même gueule J'pourrais m'faire refaire bien sûr Le nez au milieu d'la figure Mais c'que j'ai derrière la façade J'ai bien peur qu'ça reste en rade
J'rêvais d'une Margot J'accueille des beautés Toujours stéréo Stéréotypées Et je retrouve le jour la nuit Au cinéma ou dans mon lit Les mêmes petites gueules Les mêmes petites gueules J'pourrais leur faire refaire bien sûr Le nez à côté d'la figure Mais c'qu'elles ont derrière la façade J'ai bien peur qu'ça m'rende malade
J'rêvais d'un ami M'en voilà deux cents Qui s'esclaffent et rient Quand j'desserre les dents Mais y'a une p'tite chose qui m'ennuie C'est qu'ils s'regardent quand j'suis parti Avec une sale gueule Avec une sale gueule J'peux pas leur faire refaire bien sûr Le nez d'l'autre côté d'la figure Mais c'qu'ils ont derrière la façade Ça vaut pas qu'j'me rende malade
Quand j'aurai cessé D'être un sous-produit Manufacturé J'm'en irai d'ici Mais ça n'chang'ra rien à l'affaire Même les vaches me verront faire Toujours la même gueule Toujours la même gueule
I Love A Piano Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Tony Bennett and multiple other artists
As a child I went wild when a band played How I ran to the man when his hand swayed Clarinets were my pets, and a slide trombone I thought was simply Divine But today when they play I could hiss them Ev'ry bar is a jar to my system But there's one musical instrument that I call mine
I love a piano, I love a piano I love to hear somebody play Upon a piano, a grand piano It simply carries me away
I know a fine way to treat a steinway I love to run my fingers o'er the keys, the ivories
And with the pedal I love to meddle When padarewski comes this way I'm so delighted if I'm invited To hear that long haired genius play
So you can keep your fiddle and your bow Give me a p-i-a-n-o, oh, oh I love to stop right beside an upright Or a high toned baby grand
When a green tetrazine starts to warble I grow cold as an old piece of marble I allude to the crude little party singer who don't know when to pause At her best I detest the soprano But I run to the one at the piano I always love the accomp'niment and that's because

Come Josephine in my flying machine Going up she goes! Up she goes! Balance yourself like a bird on a beam In the air she goes! There she goes! Up, up, a little bit higher Oh! My! The moon is on fire Come Josephine in my flying machine Going up, all on, Goodbye!

Everywhere I go
People know the part
I'm playing
Paid for every dance
selling each romance
every night some heart
be traying
There will come a day
youth will pass away
then what will they say
about me
When the end comes I know
they'll say just a gigolo
as life goes on
without me
'Cause I aint got nobody
nobody nobody cares for me
I'm so sad and lonely
sad and lonely sad and lonely
Won't some sweet mama
come and take a chance with me
cause I aint so bad
Get along with me babe
been singin love songs
All of the time
Even only be, honey only, only be
Bop bozadee bozadee bop zitty bop
I ain't got nobody 'cept love songs in love
Hummala bebhuhla zeebuhla boobuhla
hummala bebhuhla zeebuhla bop
I ain't got nobody, nobody
nobody cares for me
Nobody , nobody
I'm so sad and lonely
sad and lonely
sad and lonely
Won't some sweet mama come
and take a chance with me
cause I aint so bad
Get along with me babe
been singin love songs
All of the time
Even only be, honey only, only be
Toujours Aimer Composer(s): Charles Dumont - Michel Rivgauche Performer(s): Edith Piaf; Lua Hadar
On n'a pas dans le cur de quoi toujours aimer Et l'on verse des pleurs en voulant trop aimer On croit être sincère, on croit avoir trouvé Le seul être sur terr' qu'on ne peut remplacer On n'a pas dans le cur de quoi toujours aimer Et l'on verses des pleurs en voulant trop aimer Un jour on se réveill', ce n'est plus tout à fait Le rayon de soleil qui nous embellissait
On regrette le temps où l'on pouvait s'aimer On regrette le temps où le cur s'emballait Il ne nous reste plus que quelques souvenirs De pauvres souvenirs qu'on cherche à retenir
Mais moi, j'ai dans le cur de quoi toujours aimer J'aurai toujours assez de larmes pour pleurer J'aurai toujours assez de rir's pour effacer Les tristes souvenirs accrochés au passé Mais moi, j'ai dans le cur de quoi toujours aimer J'aurai toujours assez de larmes pour pleurer Je veux toujours aimer, je veux toujours souffrir
Si je n'dois plus aimer, mois je préfè' mourir Mais, moi, j'ai dans le curs de quoi toujours aimer Aimer... Aimer...
Just A Game Composer(s): Micky Dolenz Performer(s): The Monkees
There's a way There's a way for you and I If you'll just stay If you'll just stay to keep me hidden from the day And all its light That's covered up by night when you're away When you're away the image of your face is clear It is clear across the room and I am here Against the wall, afraid that it is all Just a game Just a game that's played in fun But not too real Not too real to take a chance on finding out You've really lost I can't see you clearly while I'm here While I'm here and you are in my state of mind My state of mind is changing places all the time And I am lost Trying to get across another time When you're away the image of your face is clear It is clear across the room and I am here Against the wall, afraid that it is all Just a game Just a game Just a game
Toujour Gai Composer(s): Joe Darion - George Kleinsinger Performer(s): Eartha Kitt
My youth I shall never forget But there's nothing I really regret The years I have poured down the drain Have sparkled like gold in champagne
It's cheerio my dearrio Prance and pirouette It's cheerio my dearrio There's a life in me yet
Toujour gai, toujour gai, toujour gai, toujour gai Toujour gai, toujour gai, toujour gai I sing all my troubles away
I don't care to cry with a king But with any old beggar I'll sing I'll dance in the sun or the shade To any old tune that is played
I'll sing 'neath a bleary-eyed moon A rowdy and rollicking tune But no time for sleeping have I I'll sleep long enough when I die
It's cheerio my dearrio Prance and pirouette It's cheerio my dearrio There's a life in me yet
Toujour gai, toujour gai, toujour gai, toujour gai Toujour gai, toujour gai, toujour gai
I'll sing away my troubles They'll vanish like bubbles I'll sing all my troubles away Toujour gai, toujour gai, toujour gai (Toujour gai, toujour gai, toujour gai)

And before you know it you see the moon wink his eye Two hearts are waltzing in swing time So wear a great big smile Cos after all shell never fall for last years style And June comes around every year

Taaier Dan De Rest ((Adapted from: Tougher Than The Rest (Bruce Springsteen) - 1987)) Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen - Kris De Bruyne Performer(s): Kris De Bruyne - 1989
Wel, het is zaterdagnacht 'k zag je meteen in die jurk ik hield je stiekem in het oog want in elke man schuilt er een schurk
zo, jij liet iemand in de steek hebt iemands hart grondig verpest wel, als je liefde wil schat, ik ben taaier dan de rest
meisjes willen de ware Jacob of soms 'n doodbrave juul in hun armen en sommigen willen alleen maar het krapuul
maar, hier leer je al gauw (schat) te pakken wat je pakken kan dus als j'er taai genoeg voor bent schat, ik ben taaier dan de rest
de weg is lang voor wie weet waarover 't gaat en ik wil dat je weet dat ik voor jou iedereen achterlaat
als al je vorige vrijers waren geflest in de test en j'er klaar en taai genoeg voor bent schat, ik ben taaier dan de rest
wel, het is hier geen geheim ik heb hier elk meisje gehad wel, ik weet niet schat hoeveel kerels er jou hebben gehad
geef jezelf een kans al wat ik wil horen is een ja als je taaie liefde wil schat, ik ben taaier dan de rest als j'er taai en klaar genoeg voor bent schat, ik ben taaier dan de rest
ik ben taaier dan de rest ik ben taaier dan de rest
I Lost My Sugar In Salt Lake City Composer(s): Leon René; Johnny Lange Performer(s): Johnny Mercer and multiple other artists
I lost my sugar in Salt Lake City Oh, why did I go there? I should have stayed down in New Orleans And never gone nowhere
A man which we talked from kansas city His words were sweet like wine He gave us diamonds & limousines And stole that gal of mine
When night comes creeping For me there ain't no sleeping What she sold, she'll be reaping For she done me wrong I cried my heart out in Salt Lake City The day I heard the news She left me deep in my solitude With the Salt Lake City blues
Salt Lake City is renowned for it's beauty The snowcap sasquatch mountains are nearby In 1929 the factory output was 43 million dollars Wholesale trade amounted to 71 million five hundred & ten thousand five hundred & seventy three dollars Retail trade ninety two million There's salt beds & farm lands producing alfalfa, green, sugar beats & vegetables in the vicinity But as far as I'm concerned I don't care if I ever set foot there again in Salt Lake City That town is a nemesis to me
Man I cried my heart out in Salt Lake City The day I heard the news She left me deep in my solitude With those blues Salt lake City blues
Tougher Than The Rest ((Dutch Version: Taaier Dan De Rest (Kris De Bruyne) - 1989)) Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen First release: Bruce Springsteen - 1987 Covered by multiple other artists
Well It's Saturday night you're all dressed up in blue I been watching you awhile maybe you been watching me too So somebody ran out left somebody's heart in a mess Well if you're looking for love honey I'm tougher than the rest
Some girls they want a handsome Dan or some good-lookin' Joe On their arms some girls like a sweet-talkin' Romeo Well 'round here baby I learned you get what you can get So if you're rough enough for love honey I'm tougher than the rest
The road is dark and it's a thin thin line But I want you to know I'll walk it for you anytime Maybe your other boyfriends couldn't pass the test Well if you're rough and ready for love honey I'm tougher than the rest
Well it ain't no secret I've been around a time or two Well I don't know baby maybe you've been around too Well there's another dance all you gotta do is say yes And if you're rough and ready for love honey I'm tougher than the rest If you're rough enough for love baby I'm tougher than the rest
They were famous on the trapeze Everywhere the Circus played He would catch her as she twirled While below a dazzled world Would guess about her fate
She knew he was a jealous lover He thought she loved another man No longer could he hold it in She felt his rage begin She saw too late what he had planned
As she cried "Jacamo, don't let go Jacamo, why can't you understand My love and my destiny are in your hands And that's the way it's always been Don't you know, Jacamo"
Panic swept across the moment As it swept across the crowd Her tears glistened in the light As every word she cried Fell unanswered to the ground
Though he wanted to believe her A thousand doubts drove him mad He slowly loosened up his grip Her hands began to slip Borrowed time was all she had
As she cried "Jacamo, don't let go Jacamo, why can't you understand My love and my destiny are in your hands And that's the way it's always been Don't you know, Jacamo"
When every second seemed a lifetime When every prayer would not take kind Suddenly his fingers tightened His heart had changed its mind
High above the vast arena When it appeared that she would die He had looked upon her face But instead of feeling hate He saw love in her eyes There was love in her eyes
As she cried "Jacamo, don't let go Jacamo, why can't you understand My love and my destiny are in your hands And that's the way it's always been Ooh-ooh, Jacamo, don't let go Jacamo, why can't you understand My love and my destiny are in your hands And that's the way it's always been Ooo-ooh, Jacamo" ...
I had a little Corvair And it's really tough Four on the floor and that was enough I took my baby ridin' Now we're goin' for green There's no doubt about it It's a goin' machine
It was a tough little buggy A tough little buggy A tough little buggy My little Corvair My little Corvair
I was out ridin' one Saturday night And then I saw a terrible sight My old buddy had a corvair too And who's my baby with but you know who
It was a tough little buggy A tough little buggy A tough little buggy My little Corvair My little Corvair
I told him he'd better move out of my way For I was there first and I was there to stay He ????? down and I did too We both peeled rubber 'til the was blue
It was a tough little buggy A tough little buggy A tough little buggy My little Corvair My little Corvair
Now we're both walkin' And it's plane to see No more girl for him No more car for me The boys went down Oh, wouldn't you know She's got her own wheels And a bless my soul
It's a tough little buggy A tough little buggy A tough little buggy My little Corvair My little Corvair
