Kay
Composer(s): Hank Mills
Performer(s): John Wesley Ryles



Kay, with all your singin' talent
Back in Houston, Nashville's all you talked about
I sold everything I owned to bring you here
Now you'll be famous, there's no doubt

Last week you knocked 'em out in New York
Tonight Chicago's goin' wild
Kay, your new record on the jukebox don't sound bad
Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
Starin' out at Music City from my cab

Caution lights blink out their warning
Some old faithful Big Ben clock chimes 3 a.m.
Starvin' hound dogs search the trash cans
My gas tank could stand a dollar's worth again

All those chuck holes here on main street
Jar my rib cage, I could cuss
Kay, the crowd of night life people look so sad
Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
Starin' out at Music City from my cab

Two young soldiers from Fort Campbell
Told me how they hate that war in Vietnam
Sirens echo through an alley
And some woman said some fellah stabbed a man

I rushed Miss Teenage to the doctor
She begged to give the child my name
I've lost count of cups of coffee that I've had
Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
Starin' out at Music City from my cab

Three rose petals on my front seat
Fallen from the bouquet Jimmy took to June
Jim kept mumblin' through his teardrops
God, she'll leave this world with flowers in her room

Kay, I showed some drunk your picture
And he made some smart remark
So I hit him in the mouth, boy was I mad
Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
Starin' out at Music City from my cab

Guitars, organs, horns, violins
And pianos, how they play
Grinding out the latest sounds
From Music City, USA

Kay, although I know I've lost you
To the swingin' music world
I kiss pictures of those happy times we had
Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
Starin' out at Music City from my cab

Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
Starin' out at Music City from my cab

Echo Beach
((French Version: Egoïste (La Grande Sophie) - 2006))
Composer(s): Mark Gane 
First release by: Martha and the Muffins - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists



I know it's out of fashion
And a trifle uncool
But I can't help it
I'm a romantic fool
It's a habit of mine
To watch the sun go down
On Echo Beach, I watch the sun go down

From nine 'til five I have to spend my time at work
Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach some day

On a silent summer evening
The sky's alive with light
Building in the distance
Surrealistic sight
Waves make the only sound
There's not a soul around
From nine 'til five I have to spend my time at work
The job is very boring, I'm an office clerk
The only thing that helps me pass the time away
Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach some day

Echo Beach
Echo Beach
Far away in time...

I Saw The Light
Composer(s): Todd Rundgren
First release by: Todd Rundgren - 1972



It was late last night
I was feeling something wasn't right
There was not another soul in sight
Only you, only you
So we walked along,
though I knew there was something wrong
And the feeling hot me oh so strong about you
Then you gazed up at me and the answer was plain to see
'Cause I saw the light in your eyes

Though we had our fling
I just never would suspect a thing
'Til that little bell began to ring in my head
In my head
But I tried to run
though I knew it wouldn't help me none
'Cause I couldn't ever love no one, or so I said
But my feelings for you
were just something I never knew
'Til I saw the light in your eyes

But I love you best
It's not something that I say in jest (ha ha)
'Cause you're different, girl, from all the rest
In my eyes
And I ran out before but I won't do it anymore
Can't you see the light in my eyes

Echame A Mí La Culpa
Composer(s): J. Ángel Espinoza				
Performer(s): Javier Solís



No sufro, mas lloro

Sabes mejor que nadie 
que me fallaste
que lo que prometiste
se te olvidó

Sabes a ciencia cierta
que me engañaste
aunque nadie te amara
igual que yo

Lleno estoy de razones
pa' despreciarte
y sin embargo
quiero que seas feliz

Que allá en el otro mundo
en vez de infierno
encuentres gloria
y que una nube de tu memoria
me borre a mí

Dile al que te pregunte
que no te quise
dile que te engañaba
que fui lo peor

Echame a mí la culpa
de lo que pasa
cúbrete tú la espalda
con mi dolor

Que allá en el otro mundo
en vez de infierno
encuentres gloria
y que una nube de tu memoria
me borre a mí

Echame a mí la culpa
de lo que pasa

I Saw Stars
Composer(s): Maurice Sigler; Al Goodhart; Al Hoffman
Performer(s): Freddy Martin



Something strange happened to me
Lost my heart so suddenly
Suddenly I found myself in a dream
One sweet kiss did it to me
I got dizzy instantly
But something stranger happened, strange as it seems

I saw stars
I heard a birdie sing so sweet, so sweet
The moment I fell for you
I saw stars
I heard an angel say, "Wake up, wake up
Your wonderful dream come true"
A new born feeling had me reeling
I said to myself, "Where am I?"
It's all so hazy, may sound crazy
There wasn't a star in the sky
Still, I saw stars
I heard a birdie sing so sweet, so sweet

Never knew what love could do
Never knew till I met you
Now I thank my stars that you came along
Your sweet smile opened my eyes
Showed the way to paradise
And now my heart is lighter, filled with a song

I saw stars
I heard a birdie sing so sweet, so sweet
The moment I fell for you
I saw stars
I heard an angel say, "Wake up, wake up
Your wonderful dream come true"
A new born feeling had me reeling
I said to myself, "Where am I?"
It's all so hazy, may sound crazy
There wasn't a star in the sky
Still, I saw stars
I heard a birdie sing so sweet, so sweet

Echale Guindas Al Pavo
Composer(s): R. Perelló - S. Cantabrana
Performer(s): Raphael



Huyendo de los civiles
Un gitano del perchel
Sin calculo y sin combina
¡Que donde vino a caer!
En un corral de gallinas
¿Y que es lo que alli encontro?
Pues una pavita fina
Que a un pavo le hacia el amor
Salto la tapia el gitano
Con muchisimo talento
Y cuando se vino a dar cuenta
Con un saco estaba dentro
A los dos los cogio
Con los dos se najo
Y el gitano a su gitana
De esta manera le hablo

Echale guindas al pavo
Echale guindas al pavo
Que yo le echare a la pava
Azucar, canela y clavo
Que yo le echare a la pava
Azucar, canela y clavo

Estaba ya el pavo asao
La pava en el asador
Y llamaron a la puerta
Vera usted lo que paso
Entro un civil con bigote
¡Ozu, que miedo, chavo!
Se echo el fusil a la cara
Y de esta manera hablo
A ver donde esta ese pavo
A ver donde esta esa pava
Porque tiene mucha guasa
Que yo no pruebe ni un ala

Con los dos se sento
Con los dos trajelo
Y el gitano a la gitana
De esta manera le hablo

Echale guindas al pavo
Echale guindas al pavo
Que yo le echare a la pava
Azucar, canela y clavo
Que yo le echare a la pava
1zucar, canela y clavo

Trouble In Paradise
Composer(s): Allyson R. Khent - Tommy Smith
Performer(s): The Crests



Calling all angels, calling all angels, calling all angels oo---ou
Calling all angels, calling all angels, calling all angels oo---ou 

There's trouble in paradise 
My turtle doves changing wings 
There's trouble in paradise 
The birds no longer sing 
Some devil told my angel alot of lies 
& now my tears are falling 
Like raindrops from the sky 

There's trouble in paradise 
The stars no longer shine 
There's trouble in paradise 
'Cause she's no longer mine 
That devil told my angel I'd been untrue 
Won't somebody help me please 
Tell me me what to do 

Mr. Moon, Mr. Sun 
Tell her she's the only one 
Guide her with your lovely light 
Back into my arms tonight 

There's trouble in paradise 
& heaven's not the same 
The angels sit & cry 
They say it's such a shame 
They'd like our love to be just like before 
Then the trouble in paradise will be no more 

Mr. Moon, Mr. Sun 
Tell her she's the only one 
Guide her with your lovely light 
Back into my arms tonight

Calling all angels, calling all angels 
Calling all angels, calling all angels

She was just seventeen
And you know what I mean
And the way she looked was way beyond compare
I couldn't dance with another
When I saw her standing there

Well she looked at me
and I could see
That before too long I fell in love with her
I couldn't dance with another
When I saw here standing there

Well my heart went boom
As I crossed that room
And I held her hand in mine

Oh we danced through the night
And we held each other tight
And before too long I feel in love with her
I couldn't dance with another 
When I saw here standing there

Eccomi
((Spanish Version: Siempre Fuiste Mío (Mónica Naranjo) - 2000))
Composer(s): Dario Baldan Bembo - Paolo Limiti - Mina
First release by: Mina - 1972



Eccomi
Mi ricordo che la prima volta mi son detta
ora tocca a te
e ridevo e piangevo e dicevo
amore, amore, amore
Ma quale amore, cosa amore, dove amore
se l'amore non conosce me
e piano piano ho imparato a rinunciare
io
non ero ancora preparata, io
ma
con tutta la mia buona fede io
ho provato e dopo riprovato
e ancora riprovato e poi
ho creduto di trovare chi
invece mi ha sconfitto più che mai
eccomi
col niente grande che io ho
inevitabilmente io
ricominciare ancora
si eccomi
o non sarei più stata io
vuoi darmi un'altra storia Dio
vuoi darmela
o tocca sempre solo a me
Sempre solo a me gli stessi sbagli
e sono loro che mi cercano
mi son fatta grande, mi son fatta molto piccola
son stata un verso e poi
una parola inutile
sono stata fantasia
ma tutto questo è da buttare via
no, io non posso, non voglio, non devo
non credo, io no
Ma quante volte ancora
una deve pagare perché
tutto è finito
mi resta la forza di dire che tutto davvero è finito
Dio, o mio Dio
con niente che mi resta, io
potrò ricominciare, io

Trouble In Paradise
Composer(s): W. Franke Harding - Leo Robin



Most any place can seem to be a paradise
While you embrace just the one that you adore
There needn't be an apple tree with magic powers
You need no garden filled with flowers
To taste the thrill of sweet, greed hours

Gentle perfume and cushions that are silk and soft
Two in the gloom, that is silent but for sighs
That's paradise, while arms entwine and lips are kissing
But if there's something missing, that signifies
Trouble in paradise

I Saw Her Again Last Night 
Composer(s): Denny Doherty; John Phillips
Performer(s): The Mamas & The Papas



I saw her again last night
And you know that I shouldn't
To string her along is just not right
If I couldn't I wouldn't

But what can I do, I'm lonely too
And it makes me feel so good to know
You'll never leave me

I'm in way over my head
Now she thinks that I love her
Because that's what I said 
Though I never think of her
But what can I do, I'm lonely too
And it makes me feel so good to know
You'll never leave me

Every time I see that girl
You know I want to lay down and die
But I really need that girl
Don't know why I'm living a lie
It makes me want to cry

I saw her again last night
And you know that I shouldn't
To string her along is just not right
If I couldn't I wouldn't

But what can I do, I'm lonely too
And it makes me feel so good to know
You'll never leave me

But what can I do, I'm lonely too
And it makes me feel so good to know
You'll never leave me

Every time I see that girl
You know I want to lay down and die
But I really need that girl
Don't know why I'm living a lie
It makes me want to cry

I saw her again last night
And you know that I shouldn't
To string her along is just not right
If I couldn't I wouldn't
I'm in way over my head
Now she thinks that I love her
Because that's what I said
Though I never think of her

The Trouble With Hello Is Goodbye
Composer(s): David Grusin - Alan Bergman - Marilyn Bergman
Performer(s): Shirley Bassey
and multiple other artists



We wandered through the summertime
And drifted into fal
We never thought of winter at all
How foolishly we tossed away
The buttercups, the time 
Who'd have thought
We'd have no more songs to sing
Hills to climb?
We summered in each other's arms
And slumbered in the glow
We never heard the whisper of snow
But summer's not forevermore
No matter how we try 
The trouble with hello is goodbye

I Saw Elvis In A U.F.O.
Composer(s): Ray Stevens
Performer(s): Ray Stevens



This is the evening news 
Let's go now to our field reporter Renaldo Riviera

This is Renaldo Riviera on the banks of the stinky muddy river 
with Mr. R.V. Frisbee who claims to have witnessed something truly fantastic 
Mr. Frisbee could you tell us what you saw

Yeah, I's just hunkered down over there puttin' a stink wad on my trot line 
and the short hairs just stood straight out on the back of my neck 
and I turned around and there's this big orange thing 
with them purple lights on it come swoopin' over them pine trees 
and just hoovered over the Winnebago there 
Inez run out and throwed a skillet at it and then she scissored and run back in under the hide-a-bed 
'Bout that time a little trap door opened up 
little stair steps come down and this little pink baldheaded guy stuck his head out 
Now I'd seen that movie "Close Encounters" 
I just walked on over there big as Ike and looked up in there and there he was 

There who was? 

I saw Elvis in a U.F.O. sittin' there with Howard Hughes
I saw Elvis in a U.F.O. Jimmy Hoffa was in there too
I saw Elvis in a U.F.O. singing them rhythm and blues
And Liberace was there and he had on a pair of Imeldia Marcos shoes 
What is that a shootin star streakin' cross the heavens above?
No it's a whole lot more than a shootin' star it's a hunka hunka burning love, oooh
I saw the Colonel in a U.F.O. had a big smile on his face
And then he shook his head, puffed on his cigar and said
"I done book "Elvis" out in outer space" 

And then those little pink men they all jumped in dancin' up and down the stairs
And then they rolled their eyes, began to harmonize and it sounded like the Jordanaires 

Bop bop bop bop uh unh huh bop bop bop
We got Elvis in a U.F.O. 
He's too good for the human race
We got Elvis in a U.F.O. 
We're going to keep him out in outer space 

They got Elvis in a U.F.O. 
Honey have you heard the news
They got Elvis in a U.F.O. 
Just singing them rhythm and blues
They got Elvis in a U.F.O. 

And the colonel and Howard Hughes and Jimmy Hoffa even Liberace's up there 
he ain't never had no hit record honey 
I done had more hits than anybody but do I get to go in a U.F.O. 
Nooo!!! 
Now is that fair? 
I'm the king of Rock n Roll! 
The originator! 
I started the whole thing baby and I think it's about time I got to go on a U.F.O. 
You better beam me up Scotty or your little pink baldheaded people done tore it with me 
Wow!!!.....
Thank you

Ebony Eyes
Composer(s): John D. Loudermilk
First release by: The Everly Brothers - 1961
Covered by multiple other artists



On a weekend pass I wouldn’t have had time
To get home and marry that baby of mine
So I went to the chaplain and he authorized
Me to send for my ebony eyes
My ebony eyes was coming to me
From out of the skies on Flight 1203
In an hour or two I would whisper “I do”
To my beautiful ebony eyes
The plane was way overdue so I went inside to the airlines desk and I said
“Sir, I wonder why 1203 is so late?”
He said “Aww, they probably took off late
or they may have run into some turbulent weather and had to alter their course”
I went back outside and I waited at the gate
and I watched the beacon light from the control tower
as it whipped through the dark ebony skies as if it were searching for (my ebony eyes)
And then came the announcement over the loudspeaker
“Would those having relatives or friends on flight number 1203
please report to the chapel across the street at once”
Then I felt a burning break deep inside
And I knew the heavenly ebony skies
Had taken my life’s most wonderful prize
My beautiful ebony eyes
If I ever get to heaven I’ll bet
The first angel I’ll recognize
She’ll smile at me and I know she will be
My beautiful ebony eyes 

Trouble In Mind
Composer(s): Richard Jones - Janis Joplin
Performer(s): Janis Joplin



Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be blue always
'Cause that sun is gonna shine in my back door someday

Now all you men's the same
But now I'm old enough to change my name
Lord, that sun's gonna shine in my back door someday

I'm gonna lay my head
On that lonesome railroad line
And let the 2:19 ease my troubled mind

Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be blue always
Child, that wind's gonna come and blow my blues away!

I Said My Pajamas (And Put On My Prayers)

Performer(s): Doris Day
and multiple other artists



My ba-by kissed me good-night, and I am glad to relate 
that by the time I got home, I was feeling great
I climbed up the door and o-pened the stairs
I said my pajamas and put on my pray'rs
I turned off the bed and crawled into the light
and all because you kissed me (Kiss) goodnight

Next morning, I woke and scrambled my shoes
I shined up an egg, then I toasted the news
I buttered my tie and took another bite
and all because you kissed me (Kiss) goodnight

By evening I felt normal, so we went out again
You said, "Goodnight," and kissed me
I hurried home and then

I climbed up the door and opened the stairs
I said my pajamas and put on my prayr's
I turned off the bed and crawled into the light
and all because you kissed me (Kiss) goodnight

I powdered my hair and pinned up my nose
I hung up the bath and I turned on my clothes
I put out the clock and wound the cat up tight
and all because you kissed me (Kiss) goodnight

I ran up the shade and pulled down the stair
I curled up the rug and I vacuumed my hair
I just couldn't tell my left foot from my right
and all because you kissed me (Kiss) goodnight

By evening I felt normal, so we went out again
You said, "Goodnight," and kissed me
I hurried home and then

I lifted the preach'r and called up the phone
I spoke to the dog and I threw your Ma a bone
'Twas mid-night and yet, the sun was shining bright
and all because you kissed me (Kiss) goodnight

Trouble, trouble, baby
Trouble, trouble, honey
You're comin' 'round here tryin' to tell me that you care

But if you gonna hurt me, girl
Let me give you a warning
You betta be careful

You know I really care and I love you so
But if you do me wrong
Then I'll be gone in the mornin'

You know true love is hard to find
So you better change your ways and change your mind
Now, baby

Don't say yes, and don't say no
But if there's a chance, then let me know
Say maybe, baby

Kill my true love
And say I'm just a friend
If that's how it is, let this be the end

We're gonna have trouble
Trouble, baby
Trouble, trouble, honey

You don't miss the water
Till the well runs dry
So baby let's give this love a try, indeed

You wanna be rich, don't wanna be poor
With the love I have, I'll give you more
Take heed, baby

You know, the world is cold and it's awful rough
But when you got it made, then things get tough
Can you dig it, baby

Stand by me, and I'll stand by you
Until we have a love that's gonna be true
Get with it, baby

You've had your share of fortune and fame
Without a true love
You have nothin' but pain

Trouble, yes, I'm gonna have trouble
Trouble, we're gonna have trouble
Trouble, you know...
