    Havens En Stations
    ((Adapted from: Trains And Boats And Planes (Burt Bacharach And His Orch. & Chorus) - 1965))
    ((French Version: Quand Un Bateau Passe (Claude François) - 1965))
    Composer(s): Burt Bacharach - Hal David - Erik Van Neygen
    Performer(s): Erik Van Neygen - 1984



    Havens en stations brachten me haast de wereld rond
    Toch, er was daar niets wat me erg trok
    Tenzij mijn wens om weer dicht bij jou te zijn
    Zo vlug als ’k kon, bij jou te zijn
    Liefde was een spel voor jou en mij
    Te veel verwend en zonder besef
    Van plaats of tijd,hoe goed het was
    Om steeds dicht bij jou te zijn
    Zo veel als ’k kon, bij jou te zijn

    Hoe voel jij je nu daarginds heel alleen
    Voel je je beter dan toen
    Voel je je beter dan toen bij mij
    Ben je op zoek ja, vergeefs op zoek
    Want ik wacht hier, en waar ben jij

    havens en stations brachten me haast de wereld rond
    maar telkens als ik dan aan je denk
    weerklinkt mijn wens om weer dicht bij jou te zijn
    Zo vlug als ’k kan, bij jou te zijn

    I miss my darling
    I miss my darling tonight, tonight
    Oh where is my darling
    Where is my darling tonight

    (Alan)
    She went away, it was harvest time
    We kissed goodbye where the roses twine
    She knows I’m hers, and I know she’s mine
    Faithful forever I’ll be

    I miss my darling
    I miss my darling tonight, tonight
    Oh where is my darling
    Where is my darling tonight

    (Doreen)
    Flowers were blooming, ‘twas early spring
    From every tree we heard robins sing
    I heard the bells in the belfry ring
    Telling my heart he’ll return

    (Doreen & Chorus)
    I miss my darling
    I miss my darling tonight, tonight
    Oh where is my darling
    Where is my darling tonight

    I know that I’ll never love again
    Until she’s back in my arms

    (All)
    I miss my darling
    I miss my darling tonight, tonight
    Oh where is my darling

    A man with no direction, with no purpose
    With no one to love and no one to love me for, for me

    Trains
    Performer(s): Reginald Gardiner



    I have a theory about railway engines being bad tempered
    Well, when I say bad tempered, that's putting it mildly!
    They're actually livid, furious beasts and they loathe humanity
    So different from a ship, which is a sad, proud, graceful creature

    You know, I can never understand why an engine driver isn't afraid of the monster he's in charge of, but he isn't!
    And when the train's about to leave, he pulls down a lever and this livid beast is unleashed
    Like this: Huhhh... huh... huh... huh... huhhh... huh... huh... huh... huh... huh... huh... and so forth, on it's journey

    Well, now we've unleashed this livid beast, we find it's still equally furious
    and it has this colossal argument with the rails it's running on
    Like this: Biddlah-da, giddlah-da, diddley-dee, diddley-dah, diddley-dee, giddley-dah, giddley-duh... and that goes on the entire journey
    And, not only does it have a colossal argument with the rails it's running on, but also all the other rails when they dare to cross it's own
    Like this: Biddlah-duh, giddlah-duh, diddley-dee, diddley-dah, biddley-diddley-biddley-dee... and so on

    Well, then we get out into the country and we come to a little rustic bridge spanning the railway
    It's quite inoffensive, this dear little bridge, but the engine can't bear anything within it's reach at all
    so it shouts at the little bridge as it goes underneath
    Like this: Biddlah-dah, giddlah-dah, diddley-dee, diddley-dah, diddley-dee
    Haahhh, buddlah-dah, biddlah-dee, guddlah-dah

    Incidently, talking about this argument with the rails, this diddlah-duh business
    I'm not a much travelled man, but I'm told this goes on all over the world, on all the different railways
    For instance, in France exactly the same thing takes place, only the language is different, you know
    Suddley-da, suddley na, suddley-da, suck-it-yourself, suddley-da, suddlah-dah... it's all much the same thing!

    Speaking of France
    The first time I ever went there, I arrived at Calais and very close to the quayside I came across my first glimpse of a French engine
    I was vastly impressed, because it seemed to be four times as big and eight times as livid as any engine I'd ever seen before!
    To begin with, it had eight of everything, cow catchers and bells and everything but the kitchen stove hanging all over it
    Added to which, it had a very bad tempered word written across the front
    It just said 'Nord', which I know is horrid to start with!
    And it was a great pleasure to find I was allowed to do something in France that I'm not allowed to do in my own country
    Namely that I could walk across the line to get to the platform on the other side, instead of going over by that maddening bridge!

    So I picked up my little bag and walked in front of this monster, cowering away from it
    And suddenly to my amazement, it let out an extraordinarily efffeminate voice
    It seemed to me to be so enormously masculine and yet, as it started on it's journey for Paris, all it managed to summon up was: 'Fah'
    Of course, I may be wrong about that, but it really does seem to me to be a little peculiar

    Proceeding on our journey we find, from time to time, that we tear through certain wayside stations where no train has ever deigned to stop
    People have been standing, waiting on these stations for centuries, but the engine ignores them, shouting as it rushes past
    Like this: Diddley-dah, diddley-dah, raahh, romm, waahh, diddley-da, diddley-da, diddley-da, diddley-da

    Then, of course, in time we get to a manufacturing town
    Now when you get to these big towns, if you look out of the window, you'll notice some things called sidings
    on which a quite inexplicable thing called shunting takes place
    This, of course, is just an excuse on the part of the railway company to provide homes for old engines!
    You see, there comes a time with an engine when it ceases to be virile and hearty and it just becomes long funnelled and tiresome
    So it's put on one of these sidings and given a lot of trucks to play with
    And, if you happen to have a bedroom anywhere near a siding
    you'll find that you're woken up very early in the morning by trucks taking umbridge
    And it goes like this: Huh... huh... huh... p-dink-dink, p-dank-donk, p-donk-dank, p-tink-donk-donk-donk-donk... to the far end
    And, of course, there's another old gentleman at the other end who decides to do the same thing and biffs them all back again
    And in this way, the railway company is carried on

    Now there's one thing I must know before I die, and that's something that takes place in the tunnel outside Snowhill Station, Birmingham
    You dash into the tunnel very fast and the brakes go on and you look out of the window
    and all down the tunnel at intervals are a lot of flare lights
    And in between these flare lights are men, standing!
    They're leaning on shovels and pick-axes and golf clubs, or anything they can get hold of
    And these men, they live there... definitely!
    And as you go slowly through the tunnel, an extraordinary noise starts at the far end and slowly crashes past the window
    I've no idea what it is, but it goes something like this: Brom-brom-brom-brom, durrum-durrum-durrum, aling-aling-aling-aling-aling
    I think it's a piece of tin which has been nailed to the side of the tunnel with some number on it
    or something that doesn't seem to mean anything to anybody
    And it's too big! And it strikes the side of the train as it goes through
    And, presumably, the men are merely there to bend the tin back, ready for the next train to hit it as it goes through the tunnel

    Now, lastly, I'm going to tell you the one thing that an engine loathes more than anything else
    And that is another engine coming in the opposite direction
    That it cannot bear!
    And by this time, you'll have settled down having got quite used to the diddley-dum, diddley-dum nonsense and all other maddening noises
    when suddenly, to your horror, this new thing bursts upon you and nearly knocks you on the carriage floor
    It's the most frightening thing in the world and it goes something like this
    Biddley-da, diddley-dum, diddley-dum, shaahhhhh, huddley-da, huddley-da, huddley-da!

    Well folks, that's all... back to the asylum! Good night

    I met a gal from Old Kentucky
    She was happy and go-lucky
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    She called me honey-bunny
    Just to make me spend my money
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    Well Sally she could land 'em
    She'd love them and she'd leave them
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    I'll find out what Sally's got
    Makes a man think she's so hot
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    He saw Sally changin' clothes
    She was in a perfect pose
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    She caught me a-peepin' in
    I don't think it was a sin
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    Sally she can land 'em
    She loves 'em and she leaves 'em
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    I'll find out what Sally's got
    Makes a man think she's so hot
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    Now I'll haveta be confessin'
    Sally always kept me guessin'
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    She jumped up on a pony
    And she rode away with Tony
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    Yeah Sally she can land 'em
    She loves 'em and she leaves 'em
    Sally let your bangs hang down

    Just The Way You Are
    Composer(s): Billy Joel
    Performer(s): Barry White



    Don't go changing, to try and please me
    You never let me down before
    Don't imagine you're too familiar
    And I don't see you anymore
    I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
    We never could have come this far
    I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
    I'll take you just the way you are

    Don't go trying some new fashion
    Don't change the color of your hair
    You always have my unspoken passion
    Although I might not seem to care

    I don't want clever conversation
    I never want to work that hard
    I just want someone that I can talk to
    I want you just the way you are

    I need to know that you will always be
    The same old someone that I knew
    What will it take till you believe in me
    The way that I believe in you

    I said I love you and that's forever
    And this I promise from the heart
    I could not love you any better
    I love you just the way you are

    First release: The Velvet Underground - 1970
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Train round the bend
    Takin' me away from the country
    I'm sick of the trees
    Take me to the city
    Train goin' round the bend
    Train comin' round the bend

    Been in the country much too long
    Trying to be a farmer
    But nothing that I planted ever seemed to grow
    Train comin' round the bend
    Train comin' round the bend

    Hey, I am just a city boy
    I'm really not the country kind
    I miss the city streets and the neon lights
    See the train comin' round the bend
    The train comin' round the bend

    Once, she's goin' twice
    She's gonna do it all up and down
    She's goin' once, she's goin' twice
    She's goin', train's comin' round the bend
    You know the train's comin' round the bend

    Hey, up and down, out of nowhere
    Taking me back where I belong
    I've been here once and I don't dig it tonight
    The train's coming round the bend
    The train's coming round the bend

    Oooh Allright!

    I Might Have Been Queen
    Composer(s): Rupert Hine; Jamie West-Oram
    Performer(s): Tina Turner



    I’m a new pair of eyes everytime I am born
    An original mind because I just died
    And I’m scanning the horizon
    For someone recognizing that I might have been queen
    For every sun that sets there is a new one dawning
    For every empire crushed there is a brand new nation
    Let the waters rise, I have ridden each tide
    From the gates of the city where the first born died

    And I might have been queen
    I remember the girl in the fields with no name
    She had a love
    But the rivers won’t stop for me
    No, the rivers won’t stop to me

    I’m a new pair of eyes, an original mind
    With my senses of old and the heart of a giant
    And I’m searching through the wreckage
    For some recollection that I might have been queen
    For every sage that falls there’s an ancient child

    And I might have been queen
    I remember the girl in the fields with no name
    She had a love
    But the rivers won’t stop for me
    No, the rivers won’t stop to me

    I look up to the stars with my perfect memory
    I look through it all and my future is no shock to me
    I look down but I see no tragedy
    I look up to the stars till I find my destiny
    I look up to my past, a spirit running free
    I look down, I look down and I’m there in history
    I’m a soul survivor

    A soul survivor
    On the river
    But it won’t stop

    and various other artists



    I see the crystal raindrops fall
    And the beauty of it all
    when the sun comes shining through
    To make those rainbows in my mind
    When I think of you some time
    And I want to spend some time with you

    Chorus:
    Just the two of us
    We can make it if we try
    Just the two of us
    Just the two of us
    Building castles in the sky
    Just the two of us
    You and I
    We look for love, no time for tears
    Wasted waters's all that is
    And it don't make no flowers grow
    Good things might come to those who wait
    Not to those who wait to late
    We got to go for all we know

    Chorus

    I hear the crystal raindrops fall
    On the window down the hall
    And it becomes the morning dew
    Darling, when the morning comes
    And I see the morning sun
    I want to be the one with you

    Just the two of us
    We can make it if we try
    Just the two of us
    Just the two of us
    Building big castles way on high
    Just the two of us
    You and I

    Just the two of us
    Let's get together, baby
    Just the two of us
    We can make it
    Just the two of us
    We can make it
    Just the two of us
    Just the two of us we can make it

    Oh the train of love keeps a movin' on down the track
    Well I left so fast that I even forgot to pack
    Well I called my baby on the telephone
    Told him to meet me at the station, 'cause I'm coming home
    Ya Ya

    Woo woo, shovel more coal in the fire (wooo wooo... wooo wooo)
    Well I'm coming home... home to my desire (wooo wooo... wooo wooo)
    Well I miss him so, how much you'll never know
    And when I get back I'll never let him go
    No No

    Oh my heart keeps beatin', beatin' away
    It seems to tell me...
    It seems to say
    Get right home, just as quick as you can
    Into the arms of your loving man

    Oh the train of love keeps a movin' on down the line (wooo wooo... wooo wooo)
    Well on the locomotive there's a number ninety-nine (wooo wooo... wooo wooo)
    That's for ninety-nine kisses I'm a gonna give
    And ninety-nine hugs and we're gonna live
    Ya Ya

    Oh my heart keeps beatin', beatin' away
    It seems to tell me...

    I Might, (Ooooooooooooh)
    I might just fall in love with you tonight
    If your kiss lingers still
    And my lips think it will
    Then I just might

    I could
    I could surrender in your arms tonight
    Just hold me close once more
    And kiss me like before and I just might

    Lately I found my resistance is down
    Every time that I look in your eyes
    My head starts to spin, I try not to give in
    But if you catch my heart by surprise

    I might, (Ooooooooooooh)
    I might give up my heart without a fight
    I never thought I would
    But now I think I could
    And I just might

    Wooh, wooh

    What can I do with a girl sweet as you
    Can't kiss all my defenses away
    Tonight you may find that you've made up my mind
    'Cause it's getting much harder to say

    I might, (Ooooooooooooh)
    I might give up my heart without a fight
    I never thought I would
    But now I think I could
    And I just might

    (Ooooooh), I Might, (Ooooooooooooh)
    I might just fall in love with you tonight
    If your kiss lingers still
    And my lips think it will
    Then I just might

    I could,
    I could surrender in your arms tonight
    Just hold me tight once more
    And kiss me like before and I just might

    I might just fall in love with you tonight
    I never thought I would
    But now I think I could and I ...

    Woh! Bop-do-day (oh, what a girl)
    Oh, bop-do-day (oh, what a girl)
    Boo-dow, boo-day, a-bop-do-day (oh, what a girl)
    I caught the train, I met a real dame
    She was a hipster and a gone dame
    She was pretty, from New York City
    And she trucked on down the ol' fair lane
    With a hee, and a hoo
    And I just couldn't let her go
    So get along, sweet little woman get along
    Better be on your way
    Get along, sweet little woman get along
    Better be on your way

    Oh, the train kept a-rollin' (all night long)
    Mmm, the train kept a-rollin' (all night long)
    Oh, the train kept a-rollin' (all night long)
    And I still wouldn't let 'er go

    We made a stop at Albuquerque
    She must have thought I was a real gone jerk
    We got off the train in El Paso
    Her lovin' was so fine Jack, I couldn't let 'er go
    Get along, sweet little woman get along
    Better be on your way
    Get along, sweet little woman get along
    Better be on your way
    With a hee, and a hoo
    And I sure couldn't let her go
    Yeah, the train kept a-rollin' (all night long)

    Rose Of England
    Composer(s): Ivor Novello; Christopher Hassall
    Performer(s): Vera Lynn



    Grown in one land alone
    Where proud winds have blown
    There’s not a flower born of the shower
    Braver than England’s own
    Though gales of winter blow
    Piercing hail and snow
    Shining she stays bright as in days of yore
    Old England’s pride still blossoms
    Fresh on England’s shore

    Rose of England thou shall fade not here
    Proud and bright from growing year to year
    Red shall thy petals be as rich wine untold
    Shared by thy warriors who served thee of old
    Rose of England breathing England’s air
    Flower of chivalry beyond compare
    While hand and heart endure to cherish thy prime
    Thou shall blossom to the end of time

    Rose of England breathing England’s air
    Flower of liberty beyond compare
    While hand and heart endure to cherish thy prime
    Thou shall blossom to the end of time

    Just The Same
    Composer(s): Kerry Minnear; Derek Shulman
    Performer(s): Gentle Giant; Jordan Rudess



    See me, what I am, what I was, what I'll be
    Hear me, understand that I'm not what you see
    Take this, take the man, middle term, common me
    Don't you see that I'm just doing what I want to do
    Nothing more and nothing less than you
    Read no thoughts I didn't think myself
    Just the same as anybody else

    Make me someone else, put me up on a stand
    Something that I don't really want on my hands
    Use me, idolise all you can understand
    Don't you see that I'm just doing what I want to do
    Nothing more and nothing less than you
    Read no thoughts I didn't think myself
    Just the same as anybody else

    Change it, what you think, what you thought, what you say
    Look for something more than you sought yesterday
    I don't want to be part of your life today
    Don't you see that I'm just doing what I want to do
    Nothing more and nothing less than you
    Read no thoughts I didn't think myself
    Just the same as anybody else

    Train In Vain
    Composer(s): Mick Jones - Joe Strummer
    First release: The Clash- 1979
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Say you stand by your man
    Tell me something I don't understand
    You said you love me and that's a fact
    Then you left me, said you felt trapped

    Well some things you can explain away
    But my heartache's in me till this day

    Did you stand by me
    No, not at all
    Did you stand by me
    No way

    All the times
    When we were close
    I'll remember these things the most
    I see all my dreams come tumbling down
    I won't be happy without you around

    So all alone I keep the wolves at bay
    There is only one thing that I can say

    Did you stand by me
    No, not at all
    Did you stand by me
    No way

    You must explain why this must be
    Did you lie when you spoke to me

    Did you stand by me
    No, not at all

    Now I got a job
    But it don't pay
    I need new clothes
    I need somewhere to stay
    But without all these things I can do
    But without your love I won't make it through

    But you don't understand my point of view
    I suppose there's nothing I can do

    Did you stand by me
    No, not at all
    Did you stand by me
    No way

    You must explain why this must be
    Did you lie when you spoke to me?

    Did you stand by me
    Did you stand by me
    No, not at all
    Did you stand by me
    No way
    Did you stand by me
    No, not at all
    Did you stand by me
    No way

    I Met My Baby In Macy’s
    Composer(s): Tommy Dorsey



    I met my baby in Macy’s in Gentlemen’s Underwear
    I met my baby in Macy’s and that’s where I learned to care
    We looked at a cottage on the Mezzanine
    With a toaster and an iron and a washing machine
    I met my baby in Macy’s in Gentlemen’s Underwear

    I asked my baby to wed me in higher-priced Langerie
    I asked my baby and said we should honeymoon rightaway
    Should head right for heaven on the 2nd floor
    And we’ll buy all the romance that they’ve got in the store
    I asked my baby to wed me in higher-priced Langerie

    And then my baby refused me and told me she didn’t care
    I found my baby in Macy’s so I just returned her there
    They’re giving me credit but I’m all alone
    So I think I’ll take the door, see what Gimballs are showin’
    Who wants my baby in Macy’s in Gentlemen’s Underwear
    I left my heart on one of those clothing trees
    Between the men’s cologne and the b.b.b.
    When I lost my baby in Macy’s in Gentlemen’s Underwear

    Just Tell Her Jim Said Hello
    Composer(s): Jerry Leiber; Mike Stoller
    Performer(s): Elvis Presley



    She's sitting right over there
    I'd know that face anywhere
    I'd run up and embrace her
    But I’m ashamed to face her
    Just tell her Jim said hello

    I'd like to pour out my heart
    But I don't know where to start
    I'd like to tell her
    What I’m really feeling but
    Just tell her Jim said hello

    Just tell her Jim said hello
    Just tell her Jim and she'll know

    Don't tell her I’m feeling blue
    That's just between me and you
    Don't say I’m thinking of her
    Don't tell her I still love her
    Just tell her Jim said hello

    Just tell her Jim said hello
    Just tell her Jim said hello
    Just tell her Jim said hello

    Trailing Around In A Trailer
    Composer(s): Harry Gifford - Fred E. Cliffe
    Performer(s): George Formby



    I love the fresh air, it's great, I declare
    Wide open spaces for me
    With trailer and car I set out afar
    A rover I meant to be
    Over the hills and dales
    Over the slugs and snails
    Trailing around in a trailer
    Eee, it's champion campin' out

    It's just like a real gypsy life
    To make it look more real, a gypsy lent me his wife
    I'd only one pair of pyjamas
    It was awkward there's no doubt
    We shared the suit between us, but we found it too tight
    She had got the left leg on, so I put on the right
    The tape it broke and I never got a wink of sleep all night
    Eee, it's champion campin' out

    On a farm t'other night, I was doin' all right
    A dairy maid sat on me knee
    One kiss it begun at a quarter-to-one
    And it lasted till half-past-three
    For breakfast we'd eggs and ham
    Then I thought it was time to scram and go
    Ttrailin around in me trailer
    Eee, it's champion campin' out

    To shut the window one day I tried
    I banged it in a hurry with me head still inside
    When I was doin' some fishin'
    A girl strayed round about
    She smiled and whispered, "Any luck?", she seemed a gay spark
    As far as fishin' went, it's true me luck was off the mark
    But I had a bit of luck with her as soon as it was dark
    Eee, it's champion campin' out
