    Tramp And The Young Girl
    Performer(s): Mark Almond



    Down by the river, foggy and grey
    Only a young girl kneeling to pray
    Down in the water, muddy and cold
    Eyes red from crying
    A torn, ragged soul

    Once so young and gay
    Once in dreams of yesterday

    Down by the river, foggy and grey
    Only an old tramp shuffles his way
    He saw that the water, that the water so wide
    Held the young body of a love that had died

    Once so young and fair
    Once, and now despair

    Down by the reeds, they found him next day
    Dead like the young girl, in the water so grey
    That muddy old river took two of a kind
    A tramp and a young girl
    That love left behind

    I Miss You So Composer(s): Jimmy Henderson - Sydney Robin - Bertha Scott Performer(s): The Cats & The Fiddle and multiple other artists



    Those happy hours I spent with you That lovely afterglow But most of all I miss you so Your sweet caresses each rendezvous Your voice so soft and low But most of all I miss you so You once filled my heart There's no regrets, no, no fears And now you'll find my heart Filled to the top with tears I'll always love you and want you too How much, how much you'll never know But most of all I miss you so But most of all I miss you so

    I Miss You Honey, Miss You All The Time
    Composer(s): Charles K. Harris



    I can see a picture of a cottage
    In a valley 'neath a Southern sky
    I can see her standing 'mid the flowers
    Where we plighted troth, my love and I
    Just a lovers quarrel, then we parted
    She may love another, I suppose
    But my heart goes out to her with yearning
    And I wonder if my Honey knows

    Violets are growing in the meadow
    Honey suckles twine around her door
    I can see her in the grassy orchard
    Over her the pink white blossoms pour
    There is something calls me back to Honey
    'T is no use, I'm going home today
    Take her in my arms once more and tell her
    How I longed to see her and to say

    Oh, how I miss you Honey, miss you
    Could I only kiss you, kiss you
    If I could but hold you in my arms again
    For, oh, my heart is sad and weary
    Just for you, my little dearie
    How I miss you, honey, miss you all the time

    Just Try And Picture Me Back Home In Tennessee
    Composer(s): William Jerome; Walter Donaldson
    Performer(s): Johnny Maddox



    I'm so happy, oh, so happy, don't you envy me?
    I leave today at three for sunny Tennessee
    dad and mother, sis' and brother, waiting for me there
    and at the table, next to Mable, there's an extra chair

    At the station my relations all will be on hand with a hometown band
    the best band in the land
    Hezekiah and Maria they'll hand me alaugh
    and my old dad will be so glad, he'll kill the fatted calf

    Back home in Tennesse just try to picture me right on my mother's knee
    she thinks the world of me
    all I can think of tonight is a field of snowy white
    banjos ringing, darkies singing, all this world seems bright
    The roses round the door make me love mother more
    I'll see my sweetheart Flo and friends I used to know
    Why, they'll be right there to meet me
    Just imagine how they'll greet me when I get back
    when I get back to my home in Tennessee

    Told me, told me that you did ask about me
    Heh

    You know being they got that lottery, I hit it
    I’d like to kind of make up for
    A lot of things that just seemed not to go right
    Don’t want you to think I’m trying to buy back your love or your friendship
    But now I feel I got a chance to kind of make things up to you a little bit
    Heh, enough about you and me
    How’s my little son?
    Hmm, he ever ask about me?
    Just a little bit
    does he still like to go down by the supermarket?
    If I could just
    If I could just see you
    Can’t really say what you mean or what you want over the phone
    I swear I miss you
    You done heard it ten times or more but
    I swear I done changed
    I swear I done changed

    (Oh, I, Oh, I) I miss you, baby
    (Miss you, miss you)
    (Miss you, miss you) Oh, Lord)
    Miss you, baby, yeah, baby, yeah, baby, yeah, baby

    and various other artists



    Just to see her
    Just to touch her
    Just to hold her in my arms again one more time

    If I could feel her warm embrace
    See her smiling face
    Can't find anyone to take her place
    I've got to see her again

    I would do anything
    I would go anywhere
    There's nothing I wouldn't do
    Just to see her again

    I can't hide it
    I can't fight it
    It's so hard to live without the love she gave to me

    Doesn't she know it
    I tried hard not to show it
    Can't I make her realize that she really needs me again

    I would do anything
    I would go anywhere
    There's nothing I wouldn't do
    Just to see her again
    She brightened up my everyday
    Made me feel so good in every way
    If I could have her back to stay
    I've got to see her again

    Trainwreck Of Emotion
    Composer(s): Alan Rhody - Jon Vezner
    Performer(s): Lorrie Morgan; Del McCoury



    I can see it all so clearly as I'm looking back
    I was headed down the wrong way on a one-way track
    There must be a million chances that a fool could take
    Well this fool took every one and never hit the brakes
    I'm lying in the rubble cinder,smoke and ash
    My heart still poundin' from the impact of the crash
    I can see tomorrow's headlines
    "Heartbroke from blind devotion"
    Just another victim of a
    Trainwreak of emotion
    We were burnin' like a furnace as he poured on the coal
    Drive wheel a churnin',I mean love was on a roll
    Faster and faster I swear we left the ground
    But when that smoke had cleared he was nowhere around
    I'm lying in the rubble cinder,smoke and ash
    My heart still poundin' from the impact of the crash
    I can see tomorrow's headlines
    "Heartbroke from blind devotion"
    Just another victim of a
    Trainwreak of emotion
    Rumors are flyin' about how our love had failed
    But I know it was him that pulled the switch
    And left me derailed
    I'm lying in the rubble cinder,smoke and ash
    My heart still poundin' from the impact of the crash
    I can see tomorrow's headlines
    "Heartbroke from blind devotion"
    Just another victim of a
    Trainwreak of emotion
    Just one more victim of a
    Trainwreck of emotion
    Trainwreck of emotion
    Trainwreck of emotion

    Thinking of myself today
    I'm sorry that you went away
    I'm feeling down
    What can I say?
    I miss you
    I'm holding back and it's not fair
    I think I'm trying not to care
    of broken hearts I've had my share
    but I miss you.

    What did we do last Saturday night?
    Dining at your mother's on whipped cream and wine
    make me feel good all the time
    make me feel good all the time
    make me feel good
    good

    I wanna know do you love me?
    Tell me do you care?

    Tell me, will you let me be, let me be your friend?

    Oh but not just to let you sit, sit and hold my hand
    Baby, just hold my hand
    Now I wanna love you, oh but not just to let you sit
    Sit and hold my hand, baby just hold my hand

    When I first met you, we took a long long walk
    While we were walkin baby, we had a long long talk
    I told you how I wanted you, and all the things I'd do
    If you'd only prove that you loved me too
    Yeah, I wanna tell you how it thrills, a how it thrills me
    To call your name
    If we don't make it, you've got yourself to blame
    'Cause I'm gonna love you, oh but not just to let you sit
    Sit and hold my hand
    Sit and hold my hand
    Sit and hold my hand....

    Covered by multiple other artists

    Versions In Other Languages:
    1965 - Quand Un Bateau Passe (Claude François)
    1984 - Havens En Stations (Erik Van Neygen)



    Trains and bloats and planes are passing by
    They mean a trip to Paris or Rome
    For someone else, but not for me
    The trains and the boats and planes
    Took you away, away from me

    We were so in love and high above
    We had a star to wish upon
    Wish and dreams come true, but not for me
    The trains and the boats and planes
    Took you away, away from me

    You are from another part of the world
    You had to go back awhile and then
    You said you soon would return again
    I'm waiting here like I promised to
    I'm waiting here, but where are you

    Oh... oh... trains and boats and planes took you away
    But every time I see her/him I pray
    And if my prayer can cross the sea
    The trains and the boats and planes
    Will bring you back, back home to me
    The trains and the boats and planes
    Will bring you back, back home to me

    The love we shared, the fun and the laughter
    How I wish you could feel what my heart says tonight, dear

    The plans I made, my hopes for tomorrow
    If I could I would tell you I'm lonesome tonight, dear
    Oh, I miss you and I wish you were here

    All through the night I will see memories passing

    How I long for the touch of your hand holding mine, dear

    ((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

    Performer(s): Billy Cotton & His Band



    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

    (Alan)
    From every hilltop and shady glen
    I hear her calling me now and then
    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
    I miss my darling tonight
    Miss my darling
    I miss my darling tonight

    Aw and I found that material things I thought had so much value
    Aw girl didn't really have any value at all

    There was a lonely man
    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

    Performer(s): The Maddox Brothers & Rose
    and multiple other artists



    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

    Train Round The Bend
    Composer(s): Lou Reed
    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!
