I'm A Mover Composer(s): Andy Fraser; Paul Rodgers First release by: Free - 1968 Covered by multiple other artists
I was born by the river, just like this river I've been moving ever since Ain't got nobody to call my own You know I've been moving since the day I was born Life is a game just made for fun You know I don't love nobody, I don't love no one
Yes, I'm a mover, baby
Following the footsteps; One fine day when I asked the wise man which was the way he said: "Follow your heart and look for yourself and come back and tell me what you have learned"
Yes, I'm a mover, baby
Went back and told him, I found me a wife Eleven children and a real good life Told him of love and there's a happy home But I need to return to that long winding road
Yes, I'm a mover, baby Gotta move on down Mmmmove on
Et... Et Composer(s): Jacques Chaumelle Performer(s): Dalida
À rouler de ville en ville J'en arrive à rêver D'un village tranquille Où je pourrai me reposer
J'achèterai une maison Avec des fleurs et du gazon Et je pourrai y installer Mon chien préféré
Et et.. Mon petit chat siamois Et et... Mon poisson chinois Et et... Mes deux chiens pékinois Et et... Et toi tout près de moi Et toi tout près de moi
Je rêve d'une chaumière En bordure des bois Aux murs grimpe le lierre Une rivière coule à deux pas
Assis sur un banc dans la cour Je regarde passer les jours Heureuse de voir sous le soleil Les oiseaux du ciel
Et et... Toutes les fleurs des champs Et et... Les papillons blancs Et et... Des poules en liberté Et et... Mon chien préféré Et et et... Mon petit chat siamois Et et... Mon poisson chinois... Et et... Mes deux chiens pékinois Et et... Et toi tout près de moi Et toi tout près de moi
Ce serait en quelque sorte Un petit paradis Je laisserai la porte Toujours ouverte à mes amis Pour être heureuse je n'cherche pas Sur cette terre d'autres joies Que de posséder bien à moi Un bon feu de bois
Et et... Les disques des copains Et et... Du pain et du vin Et et... Une amitié fidèle Et et... Les oiseaux du ciel Et et et... Mon petit chat siamois Et et... Mon poisson chinois Et et... Mes deux chiens pékinois Et et... Et toi tout près de moi Et toi tout près de moi Et toi tout près de moi Et toi tout près de moi Et toi tout près de moi Et toi tout près de moi...

Estuve enamorado de ti Estuve enamorado de ti Pero ya no siento nada Ni me inquieta tu mirada como ayer Y pensar que un día te quise Como a nadie yo he querido jamás Y pensar que siempre te dije Que por nada te podría dejar Estuve enamorado de ti Estuve enamorado de ti Pero quiero ser sincero De verdad que, que no te quiero como ayer Y pensar que siempre te quise Como a nadie yo he querido jamás Y pensar que un día te dije Que por nada te podría dejar Estuve enamorado de ti Estuve enamorado de ti
I'm A Man Composer(s): Jimmy Miller; Steve Winwood Performer(s): Chicago
Well, my path is very messy and there's whiskers on my chin And I'm all hung up on music, and I always play to win I ain't got no time for loving 'cause my time is all used up Just sitting 'round creating all that groovy kind of stuff
Well, I'm a man, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so Well, I'm a man, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so
Well, if I had my choice of matter I would rather be with cats All engrossed in mental chatter showing where our minds are at And relating to each other just how strong our will can be In resisting all involvement with each groovy chick we see
Well, I'm a man, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so Well, I'm a man, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so
I've got to keep my image while suspended on a throne That looks out upon a kingdom filled with people all unknown Who imagine I'm not human and my heart is made of stone And I've never had no problems and my toilet's trimmed with gold
Well, I'm a man, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so Well, I'm a man, yes I am, and I can't help but love you so
Miro en el reloj y los segundos van latiendo en una estúpida manía circular
En el ojos sucio del espejo un rostro exhausto me consuela con un gesto familiar Junto a tu fotografía se amontonan las colillas en el centro residual Huele a besos todavía la almohada que dormía sueños de algodón y celofán
Leo el libro de poemas que robamos en un arrebato de infección sentimental Una fina lluvia va rompiendo en los cristales largas lágrimas que empiezo a tutear Los zapatos que dejaste calzan pasos en el aire que el silencio me obliga a escuchar Viene un coche por la calle pero no lleva equipaje, tal vez sea el que venga detrás
Miro en el reloj y los segundos van latiendo en una estúpida manía circular
I'm A Loser Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney First release by: The Beatles - 1964 Covered by multiple other artists
I'm a loser I'm a loser And I'm not what I appear to be
Of all the love I have won or have lost there is one love I should never have crossed She was a girl in a million, my friend I should have known she would win in the end
I'm a loser And I lost someone who's near to me I'm a loser And I'm not what I appear to be
Although I laugh and I act like a clown Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown My tears are falling like rain from the sky Is it for her or myself that I cry
I'm a loser And I lost someone who's near to me I'm a loser And I'm not what I appear to be
What have I done to deserve such a fate I realize I have left it too late And so it's true, pride comes before a fall I'm telling you so that you won't lose all
I'm a loser And I lost someone who's near to me I'm a loser And I'm not what I appear to be
Quem ouviu o passarinho cantar Ao meio dia no silêncio de um lugar Sozinho e sozinho esperou Que a noite trouxesse a esperança de um sonho E a companhia do lugar Sabe o tamanho da estrada que há na frente Desaparece num mato sem fim Sem jamais entender o que alguém perdeu E perdeu e ficou assim
Assim eu sei felicidade Não posso te encontrar Eu te quero, eu te espero Mas sou eu que não posso voltar
Não não não passo a estrada velha de Santana Não não não quero o cemitério do Alecrim Cada braço de riacho engana Traz na água uma cantiga assim Quem ouviu o passarinho cantar...

Ai, ai, que bom Que bom, que bom que é Uma estrada e uma cabocla uma gente andando a pé Ai, ai, que bom Que bom, que bom que é Uma estrada e a lua branca No sertão de Canindé Artomove lá nem se sabe sié homi ou sié muié Quem é rico anda em burrico Quem é pobre anda a pé
Mas o pobre vê nas estrada O orvaio beijando as fulô Vê de perto o galo-campina Que quando canta muda de cor
Vai moiando os pés no riacho Que água fresca, Nosso Sinhô Vai oiando coisa a grané Coisas que pra mode vê O cristão tem qui andar a pé
I'm a little teapot, short and stout Here is my handle (hand on hip) Here is my spout (other arm out straight) When I get all steamed up, hear me shout Tip me up and pour me out! (as song ends, lean over and tip arm out like a spout)
Estoy tan lejos, lejos No sabes como yo te extraño Las horas al no estar contigo Parece que se hicieran años Estoy tan lejos, lejos Con tantas ganas de tenerte Alimentando la esperanza Soñando con volver a verte Pero no habrá distancia Que nos aleje en pensamiento Se pueden separar los cuerpos Pero jamás el sentimiento Pero no habrá distancia Que pueda colocar barreras En un cariño como el nuestro No pueden existir fronteras Estoy tan lejos, lejos De aquel perfume que te pones Que cuando pasas a mi lado Me dice lo que te propones Estoy tan lejos, lejos De tu sonrisa y tu mirada Tan lejos de mis intenciones Que solo nunca dan en nada
Estoy tan bien que no me doy ni maldita cuenta, de lo mal que estoy
Dejaré la cocaína dejaré el alcohol me pudriré en una oficina pero conseguiré tu amor conseguiré tu amor ya lo vas a ver haré lo que sea pero yo sé que lo conseguiré
Estoy tan bien que no me doy ni maldita cuenta, de lo mal que estoy Estoy tan bien que no me doy ni maldita cuenta, de lo mal que estoy
El aire está cargado de injusticias smog represión para el poeta libertad para el ladrón qué gran manipulación en esta tarde sin sol compraré un traje de spandex y saldré a correrte por la ciudad
Estoy tan bien que no me doy ni maldita cuenta, de lo mal que estoy Estoy tan bien que no me doy ni maldita cuenta, de lo mal que estoy
Cada vez más tienen menos cada vez menos tienen más pero mi amor es verdadero nada pide sólo da
Estoy tan bien que no me doy ni maldita cuenta, de lo mal que estoy Estoy tan bien que no me doy ni maldita cuenta, de lo mal que estoy
