Ya might think I'm goin' insane 

And now your friends
They're fillin' up my car

You didn't see your lovers
There all just in rags
Ya know ya hid as pushin' up posies

Ridin', yeah 

You stop and you stare
As I'm leavin' my favorite place

That's all it's gonna be
He got the poison black arts of the pimps
But don't ya st- st-

Ridin' ridin' ridin'

You Came A Long Way From St. Louis
Composer(s): Bob Russell; John Benson Brooks
Performer(s): Peggy Lee;
and various other artists



You came a long way from St. Louis
you climbed the ladder of success
I've seen the town and country cars 
that were parked out in front of your fancy address

You came a long way from St. Louis
you broke a lotta hearts between
I've seen a gang of gloomy gals 
who were doing alright till you came on the scene

You came here from the middle west
and certainly impressed the population hereabouts
Well, baby, I got news for you
I'm from Missouri too

So natcherly I got my doubts
you got `em dropping by the wayside
A feeling I ain't gonna know
You came a long way from St. Louis
but baby, you still got a long way to go

Suburbano Coraçáo
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Cida Moreyra



Quem vem lá
Que horas são
Isso não são horas, que horas são
É você, é o ladrão
Isso não são horas, que horas são
Quem vem lá
Blim blem blão
Isso não são horas, que horas são

A casa está bonita
A dona está demais
A última visita
Quanto tempo faz
Balançam os cabides
Lustres se acenderão
O amor vai pôr os pés
No conjugado coração
Será que o amor se sente em casa
Vai sentar no chão Será que vai deixar cair
A brasa no tapete coração

Quando aumentar a fita
As línguas vão falar
Que a dona tem visita
E nunca vai casar
Se enroscam persianas
Louças se partirão
O amor está tocando
O suburbano coração
Será que o amor não tem programa
Ou ama com paixão
Mulher virando no sofá
Sofá virando cama coração
O amor já vai embora
Ou perde a condução
Será que não repara
A desarrumação
Que tanta cerimônia
Se a dona já não tem
Vergonha do seu coração

You Call It Madness (But I Call It Love)
Composer(s): Russ Columbo; 
Con Conrad; Gladys Dubois; Paul Gregory
Performer(s): Nat King Cole;
and various other artists



I can't forget the night I met you
That's all I'm thinking of
And now you call it madness
But I call it love
You made a promise to be faithful
By all the stars above
And now you call it madness
I still call it love
My heart is beating,It keeps on repeating
For you constantly
You're all I'm needing
And so I'm pleading
"Please come back to me!"
You made a plaything out of romance!
What do you know of love?
That's why you call it madness
But I call it love

Suburban Dream
Composer(s): Mark Gane
Performer(s): Martha & The Muffins



Strolling through the plaza in the coal twilight 
Sucking on a synthic shake 
Hidden in the ambient, florescent night
High school boys are on the make

Muscle cars are floating down the treeless streets 
Blaring heavy-metal radio 
Slimy Burger chateaux everywhere I turn 
Basking in a neon glow

Faraway the CN Tower silhouette Flashing through the downtown haze
Thinking 'bout pollution puts me in a sweat 
The price the city-dweller pays!

Suburban Dream -- You won't get mugged 
Suburban Dream -- No cockroach bugs 
Suburban Dream -- It's really true Suburban Dream -- Everybody's like you!

The Smiths have bought a swimming pool for twenty grand 
The Jones' eldest son has caught the flu 
Cindy, in a search for love got pregnant and 
Her parents are discussing what to do

Talking 'bout the weather to the guy next door 
Hanging out in modern bars 
Hockey Night in Canada is such a bore 
Since the old man bought a brand new car

Who needs the city's rotting culture, rising crime? 
Here the air is squeaky clean 
Television living takes up all my time 
Making the suburban dream

Suburban Dream -- It's really nice 
Suburban Dream -- Take my advice
Suburban Dream -- The only way 
Suburban Dream -- C'mon over today

You Call Everybody Darling
Composer(s): Sam Martin - Ben Trace - Clem Watts
First recording/First release by: Jack Smith - 1947
Covered by multiple other artists



Though you're always waxing sentimental
Your sweet words are all I ever hear
You don't really give a Continental
And deep down in your heart you're not sincere

You call everybody Darlin'
And everybody calls you Darlin', too
You don't mean what you're sayin'
It's just a game you're playin'
But you'll find someone else can play
The game as well as you

If you call everybody Darlin'
Then love won't come a-knockin' at your door
And as the years go by
You'll sit and wonder why
Nobody calls you Darlin' anymore
 
								

Old Time Christmas
Composer(s): Aaron Barker - John Jarvis
Performer(s): George Strait



Tricycles, Bicycles
Candy canes and candlelight
Tryin' to stay awake all night
To catch a glimpse of Santa's reindeer
Mama bakin', sister makin'
Angels in the fallin' snow
Now it seems so long ago
I wish they all were here

We'd have an old time Christmas
An old time Christmas
Just like the ones from yesterday
We'd leave the world behind us
Let the spirit find us
And have an old time Christmas
For old times sake

Friends singin', bells ringin'
Snowman standing in the yard
It's a living Christmas card
Captured in our hearts forever
Friends scatter, it's won't matter
The magic never melts away
It only takes a Christmas Day
To make it reappear

We'd have an old time Christmas
An old time Christmas
Just like the ones from yesterday
We'd leave the world behind us
Let the spirit find us
And have an old time Christmas
For old times sake

So leave the world behind you
Let the spirit find you
And have an old time Christmas
For old times sake

You By My Side
Composer(s): Chris Squire
Performer(s): Chris Squire



You know I love you
I can't be without you
When I'm alone, I still feel this way about you
Everything's clear
Here is here
And everything is as it appears to be so

Here am I dreaming
I stand by myself
Look and it's easy to see, that
I'm not the only one reaching for a new kind of wealth
Reaching with nothing to hide
And you by my side

You know we love you
We can't be without you
When we're aat home, we still feel this way about you
Everything's clear
Here is here
And everything is as it appears to be so

Here we are dreaming
We stand by ourselves
Look and it's easy to see, that
We're not the only ones reaching for a new kind of wealth
Reaching with nothing to hide
And you on our side

Subterranean Homesick Blues
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
First release by: Bob Dylan - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists



Johny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
Look out kid
It's somethin' you did
God knows when
But you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend
The man in the coon-skip cap
In the big pen
Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten

Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin' that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the DA
Look out kid
Don't matter what you did
Walk on your tip toes
Don't try, 'No Doz'
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows

Get sick, get well
Hang around an ink well
Ring bell, hard to tell
If anything is goin' to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write Braille
Get jailed, jump bail Join the army, if you failed
Look out kid
You're gonna get hit
But losers, cheaters
Six-time users
Hang around the theaters
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin' for a new fool
Don't follow leaders
Watch the parkin' meters

Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles

ah get born, keep warm
short pants, romance, learn how to dance
get dressed, get blessed
try to be a success
please her, please him, buy gifts
don't steal, don't lift
twenty years of schooling
and they put you on the day shift
look out kid
they keep it all hid
better jump down a manhole, light yourself a candle
don't wear sandals, you cant afford the scandal
don't wanna be a bum, you better chew gum
the pump don't work
cause the vandals took the handles

You Bug Me, Baby
Composer(s): Sonny Bono
Performer(s): Larry Williams; The Jive Romeros



You got the kinda face that I can't resist
You got the kinda lips that ought to be kissed
You got that funny little look, baby, in your eye
Oooh-wee baby
I just want to die

You bug me baby

When we go riding in the pale moonlight
All I wanna to do is hold-a you tight
You whisper come, come close to me
Ooo-wee baby
I'm in ecstasy

You bug me baby

The other night when I kissed your lips
My head was spinning and my heart did flips
And you looked at me and you wringkled your nose
Ooh-wee baby
You curl my toes

You bug me baby

When we go dating to a drive-in show
The picture playing we never know
Your close to me and I'm close to you
Ooh-wee baby
Is that lipstick new

You bug me baby

You got the kinda face that I can't resist
You got the kinda of lips that ought to be kissed
Funny little look baby, in your eye
Ooh-wee baby
I just want to die

You bug me baby

When we go riding in the pale moonlight
All I wanna do is hold you tight
And you whisper to me come close to me
Ooh-wee baby
I'm in ecstasy

You bug me baby

You bug me baby

Hey Mister
Composer(s): Spooner Oldham - Dan Penn
Performer(s): Sandy Posey



Mister
Mister have you got a dime
I want to call my mother
Down in Caroline

A random man took advantage of me
He said he'd show me the bright city lights
He took my love and then he was gone
and now I'm stranded in the windy seas

Ooh Mister
Mister would you take the time
To give me some directions
to the nearest wellfare line

O lord how I want to go home
I need the love of my family
Dig down in the depth of your heart
Please Mister have pitty on me

Mister
hey mister
can't you spare me one thin dime
I've got to talk to mother, dear mother
down in Caroline
A ramblin' man done took advantage of me
He said he'd show me the bright city lights ...

You Brought A New Kind Of Love To Me
Composer(s): Sammy Fain; Irving Kahal; Pierre Norman
Performer(s): Maurice Chevalier;
and various other artists



Sweet one, fairer than the flowers
Never will I meet one sweeter than you
Would you turn away or could you
Really learn to care if I ever dare
To say I love you

If the nightingales could sing like you
They'd sing much sweeter than they do
For you brought a new kind of love to me

If the sandman brought me dreams of you
I'd want to sleep my whole life through
For you brought a new kind of love to me

I know that I'm the slave, you're the queen
But still you can understand
That underneath it all you're a maid
And I am only a man

I would work and slave the whole day through
If I could hurry home to you
For you brought a new kind of love to me

----------


As sung by Doris Day:



Sweet one, fairer than the flowers
Never will I meet one sweeter than you
Would you turn away or could you
Really learn to care if I ever dare
To say I love you

If the nightingales could sing like you
They'd sing much sweeter than they do
'Cause you brought a new kind of love to me

If the sandman brought me dreams of you
I'd want to sleep my whole life through
'Cause you brought a new kind of love to me

I know that you're the slave, I'm the queen
But still you can understand
That underneath it all I'm a maid
And you are only a man

I would work and slave the whole day through
If I could hurry home to you
'Cause you brought a new kind of love to me

Substitute
Composer(s): Pete Townshend
First release by: The Who - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists



You think we look pretty good together
You think my shoes are made of leather

But I'm a substitute for another guy
I look pretty tall but my heels are high
The simple things you see are all complicated
I look pretty young, but I'm just back-dated, yeah

Substitute your lies for fact
I can see right through your plastic mac
I look all white, but my dad was black
My fine looking suit is really made out of sack

I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth
The north side of my town faced east, and the east was facing south
And now you dare to look me in the eye
Those crocodile tears are what you cry
It's a genuine problem, you won't try
To work it out at all you just pass it by, pass it by

Substitute me for him
Substitute my coke for gin
Substitute you for my mum
At least I'll get my washing done

You Broke The Only Heart That Ever Loved You
Composer(s): Freddy James; Little Jack Little
Performer(s): The Mills Brothers



Your reputation has preceeded you
You always hurt someone who needed you
It doesn't take long for news to get around
And now you want to be found

'Cause you broke the only heart that ever loved you
And you tossed away the only love you knew
As if nothin' mattered, you battered and shattered
A heart so true

Only to wake up and find that the break-up
Was breakin' the heart of you
And now you come to me for consolation
And I'd be a fool to fall for such a line.

Yes, you broke the only heart that ever loved you
And now that I met you
I'm not gonna let you break mine

I picked you up on my tv screen
I feel your undercurrent flowing

You've got me pretty deep baby
I can't figure out your watery love

Under the sea under a water

You Broke My Heart To Pass The Time Away
Composer(s): Leo Wood; Joe Goodwin
Performer(s): Manuel Romain; Henry Burr



You've said goodbye and everything is over now it seems 
And all you left behind for me were dreams, just shattered dreams
For you were all I had, the only happiness I knew
You went away without a word, you proved your love untrue

I see you as I saw you on the day we two first met
You seemed as an angel from above your smile I can't forget
The smiles that made me think, perhaps, some day for me you'll care
The smile that promised untold joy, but left me in despair

You never meant the kisses that you gave me
I've paid with tears for every bit of joy
You made a plaything of my heart, the heart I gave to you
You broke it like a child would break a toy
The love you gave was like a fading flower 
The kind of love that lives for just a day 
But forgive you, dear, I will
God knows, I love you still
Tho' you broke my heart, to pass the time away

Sube A La Nube
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo



El otro día me llamó
el nuevo director
de la compañía
Y dijo que me van a echar
porque hace tiempo ya
mis discos no vendían
Me habló de canciones nuevas
para venderlas afuera
Olvídate de las lentas
ahahá, ahahá

Al otro día desperté
me puse a buscar
una canción de esas
Después cuando la terminé
me puse a guitarrear
bailando por la pieza
Al rato llegó mi hijo
me dijo "viejo qué pasa"
Y yo respondí que nada
Ahahá ahahá

Sube a la nube
Bájame el agua
que queda
Deja a la estrella
cantar lo que quiera
Ahahá, ahahá

A la hora de cenar
en el comedor
tuve mi platea
Todo el mundo bien callado
para escuchar
mi canción más nueva

Una vez finalizada
sólo vi caras largas
Yo pregunté que pasa
Ahahá...ahahá

Sube a la nube
bájame el agua que puedas
deja a la estrella
cantar lo que quiera
Ahahá... ahahá

You Broke A Heart (That Was Breaking For You)
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



Moonlight night stars shining bright
Sweethearts are strolling by my window tonight
Laughing so gay as they go on there way
To them to whole world seems bright

And I sit alone lonesome and blue
Wondering, just wondering yet I know it’s true
As I live again those hours of pain
When You Broke A Heart That Was Breaking For You

The heart that was breaking for you, dear
Is broke and will never forgive
And I want you to know, where ever you go
I’ll blame you as long as I live

Now I’ve made mistakes some great, some small
Some are so needless, haven’t we all?
But the greatest mistake in all my time
Was to believe what you said when you said you where mine

As the long years unfold for me there’s not much in view
But if you ever find happiness it’s more than you’re due
If your nights seem so long, so endless and blue
Remember You Broke A Heart That Was Breaking For You

The heart that was breaking for you, dear
Is broke and will never forgive
And I want you to know, where ever you go
I’ll blame you as long as I live
