    It's Hard To Kiss The Lips At Night That Chew Your Ass Out All Day Long
    Composer(s): Rodney Crowell; Vince Gill
    Performer(s): The Notorious Cherry Bombs



    She used to call me baby
    I thought she was such a lady
    But my, how things have changed
    Since times moved on

    I gave her my last dollar
    And now all she'll do is holler
    Oh, my life has become
    A country song

    I've learned she can resist me
    By the way she always disses me
    And comes to bed at night
    With that cold cream on

    Sometimes I might feel frisky
    But these days it's just too risky

    It's hard to kiss the lips at night
    That chew your ass out all day long
    All day long
    It goes on and on

    If a tree fell in the forest, she didn't hear it
    Would I still be wrong?
    I guess I should admit it
    She ain't never gonna quit it

    It's hard to kiss the lips at night
    That chew your ass out all day long

    Man I remember when her eyes
    Used to be so blue and shiny
    God you oughta see
    What's happened to her hiney
    (Her what?) her hiney

    Man that thing is big enough
    To land a small plane on
    (Small plane?) I'm tellin' ya
    I used to roll her in the clover (Mmm, hmm)
    But thank God those days are over (Halleluiah!)

    It's hard to kiss the lips at night
    That chew your ass out all day long
    All day long
    She goes all day long

    If some day they drop the big one
    I'd say sweet Jesus
    She's gonna finally leave me alone

    It's alright if we say it
    'Cause the radio won't play it

    It's hard to kiss the lips at night
    That chew your ass out all day long
    It's hard to kiss the lips at night
    That chew your ass out all day long...

    It's Hard To Be Humble
    Composer(s): MacDavis
    Performer(s): MacDavis



    Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
    When you're perfect in every way
    I can't wait to look in the mirror
    'cause I get better looking each day
    To know me is to love me
    I must be a hell of a man
    Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
    But I'm doing the best that I can

    I used to have a girlfriend
    But I guess she just couldn't compete
    With all of these love-starved women
    Who keep clamouring at my feet
    Well, I probably could find me another
    But I guess they're all in awe of me
    Who cares--I never get lonesome
    'cause I treasure my own company

    Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
    When you're perfect in every way
    I can't wait to look in the mirror
    'cause I get better looking each day
    To know me is to love me
    I must be a hell of a man
    Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
    But I'm doing the best that I can

    I guess you could say I'm a loner
    A cowboy outlaw tough and proud
    Oh I could have lots of friends if I want 'em
    But then I wouldn't stand out in a crowd
    Some folks say that I'm egotistical
    Hell, I don't even know what that means
    But I think it has something to do with the way
    That I fill out my skin-tight blue-jeans

    Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
    When you're perfect in every way
    I can't wait to look in the mirror
    'cause I get better looking each day
    To know me is to love me
    I must be a hell of a man
    Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
    But I'm doing the best that I can

    Christmas Memories
    Composer(s): Joey Miskulin
    Performer(s): Frankie Yankovic



    Hello, this is 'Weird Al' Yankovic
    You know, some of my favorite memories
    are those of Christmastime
    I still remember when I was a little boy, just waiting for the big day
    Mom would be cooking up a mess of boysenberry
    and tunafish burritos for our big Christmas dinner
    and dad would be decorating the tree with little bits of Spam
    And then, the big day would finally arrive
    I'd stay up all night and wait for Santa
    a-a-and when he finally showed up
    we'd all hold his hands down in the waffle maker
    until he promised to give us everything we wanted
    Ah, yeah, those were the days
    Well, Merry Christmas everybody, and, let's do lunch

    It's Hard To Be A Saint In The City
    Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen
    First release by: Bruce Springsteen - 1973



    I had skin like leather and the diamond-hard look of a cobra
    I was born blue and weathered but I burst just like a supernova
    I could walk like Brando right into the sun, then dance just like a Casanova
    With my blackjack and jacket and hair slicked sweet
    Silver star studs on my duds, just like a Harley in heat
    When I strut down the street, I could feel its heart beat
    The sisters fell back and said, "Don't that man look pretty"
    The cripple on the corner cried out, "Nickels for your pity"
    Them gasoline boys downtown sure talk gritty
    It's so hard to be a saint in the city

    I was the king of the alley, Mama, I could talk some trash
    I was the prince of the paupers, crowned downtown at the beggar's bash
    I was the pimp's main prophet, I kept everything cool
    Just a backstreet gambler with the luck to lose
    And when the heat came down it was left on the ground
    The devil appeared like Jesus through the steam in the street
    Showin' me a hand I knew even the cops couldn't beat
    I felt his hot breath on my neck as I dove into the heat
    It's so hard to be a saint when you're just a boy out on the street

    And the sages of the subway sit just like the living dead
    As the tracks clack out the rhythm, their eyes fixed straight ahead
    They ride the line of balance and hold on by just a thread
    But it's too hot in these tunnels, you can get hit up by the heat
    You get up to get out at your next stop, but they push you back in your seat
    Your heart starts beatin' faster as you struggle to your feet
    Then you're outa that hole and back up on the street

    And them South Side sisters sure look pretty
    The cripple on the corner cries out, "Nickels for your pity"
    And them downtown boys sure talk gritty
    It's so hard to be a saint in the city

    and multiple other artists



    Singing carols, stringing popcorn
    Making footprints in the snow
    Memories, Christmas memories
    They're the sweetest ones I know

    Cookies baking in the kitchen
    Carols in rhythm everywhere
    Precious, Christmas memories
    Float like snowflakes in the air

    Oh the joy of waking Christmas morning
    The family 'round the tree
    We had a way of making Christmas morning
    As merry as can be

    I close my eyes and see shining faces
    Of all the children who now have children of their own
    Funny, but comes December
    And I remember every Christmas I've known

    Composer(s): John Prine; John Burns
    Performer(s): John Prine; Chris Hillman



    Well it's the same old song
    Boy meets girl
    And girl meets boy
    They carry on
    They close their eyes
    And kiss until the world is gone
    Oh yes it's true
    It's happening to you

    You know what they say
    They pledge their love forever
    Then they add a day
    They hold their hands so tight
    In the fear
    That one might stray
    Oh yes it's true
    It's happening to you

    I loved her
    She loved me too
    We had a lot of love
    Now it's all through

    And for a while
    Their hearts beat one
    As they match each other
    Smile for smile
    They dance away the night
    As they praise
    The others style
    Oh yes it's true
    It's happening to you

    Christmas Memories Composer(s): Randy Albright - John Greenebaum - Becky Hobbs Performer(s): Alabama; Groovegrass Boyz; Eddie Kamae



    There's a blanket of snow coverin' up the old road
    To the house where I was raised
    Through the window I see the lights on the tree
    And a glow from the old fireplace
    Though it all looks the same, so much has changed
    From the way it used to be

    Christmas memories of happy years gone by
    They come back to me and keep me warm inside
    Still those memories make me cry

    Now the stockings are filled, the oldhouse is still
    And the kids are dreamin' away
    There's that old easy chair, me and Daddy sat there
    Waiting for Santa's sleigh
    Now Daddy's gone, but we'll carry on
    'Cause the little ones still need

    Christmas memories of happy years gone by
    They come back to me and keep me warm inside
    Still those Christmas memories
    Oh, they mean so much to me
    Woh, those Christmas memories make me cry

    People tell you that you can't find love
    Or you'll never find your turtle dove
    Don't believe a word of what they say
    'Cause when I met you, my love
    I knew, I knew it had happened to me
    It's happened to me

    You can tell by the way I walk
    Or even tell it when I talk
    & I'm so proud it's plain to see
    'Cause when I met you, my love
    I knew, I knew it had happened to me
    It's happened to me

    I don't mind telling everyone
    I'm proud to say you're my only one

    (x2):
    So if they you that you can't find love

    It's Great To Be Alive
    Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Robert Emmett Dolan
    Performer(s): Jo Stafford



    It's great to be alive
    To work from nine to five
    To have a piece of land to farm

    It's great to be alive
    To have a car to drive
    And have your baby on your arm

    In spite of bills
    And other minor ills
    Somehow we manage to survive

    It's great to be in love
    To have a roof above
    And watch the little ones around

    Your own descendant
    Deductable dependents
    It's great to be alive

    It's great to be alive
    (It's great to be here and kickin')
    To work from nine to five
    (To hear an alarm clock tickin')
    And have a piece of land to farm
    (It's really a kick to cultivate chickens on a little ol' farm)

    It's great to be alive
    (It's up to work and strivin')
    To have a car to drive
    (Then take your girl to a drive-in)
    And swing your baby on your arm
    (To know that at five you're really arrivin', she'll be holding your arm)

    In spite of bills

    And other minor ills
    (We manage to find the proper pills)
    Somehow me manage to survive
    (To lose the little ills, straight, that really is great)

    It's great to be alive
    (That girl to love you)
    To have a roof above
    (That roof above you
    To watch the little ones arrive)
    (Especially with the little ones arrivin' and all that jive)

    Your own descendants

    The Bailiff's Daughter Of Islington
    (Traditional)



    There was a youth, and a well belov'd youth
    And he was a esquire's son
    He loved the bailiff's daughter dear
    That lived in Islington

    She was coy, and she would not believe
    That he did love her so
    No, nor at any time she would
    Any countenance to him show

    But when his friends did understand
    His fond and foolish mind
    They sent him up to fair London
    An apprentice for to bind

    And when he had been seven long years
    And his love he had not seen
    Many a tear have I shed for her sake
    When she little thought of me

    All the maids of Islington
    Went forth to sport and play
    All but the bailiff's daughter dear
    She secretly stole away

    She put off her gown of gray
    And put on her puggish attire
    She's up to fair London gone
    Her true-love to require

    As she went along the road
    The weather being hot and dry
    There was she aware of her true-love
    At length come riding by

    She stept to him, as red as any rose
    And took him by the bridle ring
    "I pray you, kind sir, give me one penny
    To ease my weary limb"

    "I prithee, sweetheart, canst thou tell me
    Where that thou wast born?"
    "At Islington, kind sir," said she
    "where I have had many a scorn"

    "I prithee, sweetheart, canst thou tell me
    Whether thou dost know
    The bailiff's daughter of Islington?"
    "She's dead, sir, long ago"

    "Then will I sell my goodly steed
    My saddle and my bow
    I will into some far country
    Where no man doth me know"

    "O stay, O stay, thou goodly youth!
    She's alive, she is not dead
    Here she standeth by thy side
    And is ready to be thy bride"

    It's Good To Be The King
    Composer(s): Mel Brooks; Pete Wingfield
    First performance: Mel Brooks - 1981



    Now get down people
    And listen to me
    Gonna tell you how I made history
    You can call me Louis
    I'm the king of France
    Check out my story
    While you do your dance
    Now it's seventeen hundred and eighty nine
    The peasants were starving
    But I was fine
    We were hanging out
    Down in old Versailles
    That's the weekend pad of my queen and I
    In the alleys of Paris
    They was eating rats
    But it was fillet mignon
    For the aristocrats
    There was Dukes and Counts and
    Barons and Earls
    I gave them the title
    But I kept the girl
    Blond, redhead, wild, brunette
    Ladies in wait
    I didn't wait to get
    There was truffles for breakfast
    Toast for brunch
    The lion of the folley's version for lunch...

    Ooh yes it's good to be the king
    Ooh la la
    Gee but it's good to be the king

    Say it girls

    You can be sure about one thing
    Ooh la la
    Mais oui, it's good to be the king

    It's good to be the king

    Well the palace was rocking
    And we were doing it good
    When we heard there was some trouble
    In the neighborhood
    I wasn't too worried
    No big deal
    We step out of line
    Jack, you're near the Bastille
    The party kept spinning
    All day an dall night
    The champagne was flowing
    We were feeling all right
    They were screaming for breath
    Things started to shake
    But Marie Antoinette said,
    "We'll let 'em eat cake."
    Now the rapper wouldn't have it
    They was angry and beat
    They built a big old razor
    Called the Guillotine
    Then the people all shouted
    We'll have all day
    Down with dirty war
    Give us Perrier
    I said that in the war things might get screwy
    But they'd never lay a finger
    On good king Louis
    Just keep your cool
    Don't fret, don't freak
    Say hey
    Say what
    Say magnifico

    Ooh yes it's good to be the king
    Ooh la la
    Gee but it's good to be the king

    Your fantasy is my reality

    You can be sure about one thing
    Ooh la la
    Mais oui, it's good to be the king

    It's good to be the king

    Night and day
    Vous, vous voulez

    Well they broke down the gate
    In one massive assault
    And the party came to a grinding halt
    They took the midgets and the freakies
    With the girls in tote
    And a voice said
    Louis, it's time to go
    They put my neck on the block
    They took off my wig
    And it occured to me
    This was the end of the gig
    They asked me did I have any
    Last words to say
    Well I raised my head
    And I hollered hey

    Ooh yes it's good to be the king
    Ooh la la
    Gee but it's good to be the king

    Well c'est la vie
    Make that one more

    You can be sure about one thing
    Ooh la la
    Mais oui, it's good to be the king

    It's good to be the king

    Bonjour
    Ooh la la
    Ooh yes, it's good to be the king

    Well it was good while it lasted

    Christmas Letter
    Performer(s): Sonny James



    When it's Christmas time in heaven
    Do the angels trim the tree?
    And if angels sing Christmas carols
    Please ask them, sing one for me

    Folks, I'm a tired old postman
    Then Christmas eve is here
    And I guess I've been kind of grumpy
    'Cause the load's been mighty heavy this year

    But this morning I picked up a letter
    Written in childish scrawl
    It said "to my daddy in heaven"
    With no return address at all

    "Dear daddy" I read
    "I miss you so much tonight
    Christmas eve is near
    Always before this at Christmas
    You been living down here
    The carols we sang together at night by the open fire
    Are you singing them tonight, daddy
    To all the kids up there?
    I couldn't buy you presents
    So I'm lighting a Christmas candle tonight
    And I hope when you read my letter
    That you look down and see the light
    I'll close for now
    'Cause I'm crying and I can't see to write
    But don't grieve, they're happy tears, daddy
    Still I'll miss you, tomorrow on Christmas eve"

    When it's Christmas time in heaven
    Do the angels trim the tree?
    And if angels sing Christmas carols
    Please ask them, sing one for me

    I folded the letter and put it away
    While I brushed aside a tear
    Somehow I knew for certain
    That there'd been a daddy to hear

    'Cause all at once in the distant south
    I saw a shining white light
    And from far, far away were voices like bells
    A great choir sang silent night

    When it's Christmas time in heaven
    Do the angels trim the tree?
    And if angels sing Christmas carols
    Please ask them, sing one for me

    and multiple other artists



    Let's get away from sleigh bells, let's get away from snow
    Let's make a break some Christmas, Dear, I know the place to go
    How'd ya like to spend Christmas on Christmas Island?
    How'd ya like to spend the holiday away across the sea?
    How'd ya like to spend Christmas on Christmas Island?
    How'd ya like to hang a stocking on a great big coconut tree?

    How'd ya like to stay up late, like the islanders do?
    Wait for Santa to sail in with your presents in a canoe
    If you ever spend Christmas on Christmas Island
    You will never stray for everyday
    Your Christmas dreams come true

    How'd ya like to stay up late like the islanders do?
    Wait for Santa to sail in with your presents in a canoe
    If you ever spend Christmas on Christmas Island

    On Christmas Island your dreams come true

    It's Gonna Be All Right
    Composer(s): Gerry Marsden
    First release by: Gerry & The Pacemakers - 1964
    Covered by: The Stool Pigeons - 1997



    It's gonna be all right, all right, all right
    It's gonna be all right

    The day you came my way
    I knew I would stay
    Close by your side
    To keep you staisfied

    It's gonna be all right, all right, all right
    It's gonna be all right

    When you look at me
    In your eyes I can see
    The love that grows each day
    That's why I've gotta say

    It's gonna be all right, all right, all right
    It's gonna be all right

    Never thought I'd find a girl like you
    Now I have, I know I'll never be blue
    It's gonna be all right, all right, all right
    It's gonna be all right

    Every time we meet
    My heart skips a beat
    And now you're here to stay
    You'll always hear me say

    It's gonna be all right, all right, all right
    It's gonna be all right

    Never thought I'd find a girl like you
    Now I have, I know I'll never be blue
    It's gonna be all right, all right, all right
    It's gonna be all right

    Every time we meet
    My heart skips a beat
    And now you're here to stay
    You'll always hear me say

    It's gonna be all right, all right, all right
    It's gonna be all right
    It's gonna be all right
    It's gonna be all right

    Christmas Is Now Drawing Near At Hand
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Steve Winwood; Lal Waterson



    Christmas is now drawing near at hand
    Come serve the Lord and be at His command
    And God a portion for you will provide
    And give a blessing to your soul besides

    Down in the garden where flowers growing ranks
    Down on your bended knees and give the Lord thanks
    Down on your knees and pray both night and day
    Leave off your sins and live fro' pray tae pray

    So proud and lofty is some sort of sin
    Which many take delight and pleasure in
    Whose conversation God doth smirch as lie
    And yet He shakes His sword before He stri'

    So proud and lofty do some people go
    Dressing theirselves like players in a show
    They patch and paint and dress with idle stuff
    As if God had not made 'em fine enough

    Even little children learn to curse and swear
    And can't rehearse one word of godly prayer
    Oh teach them better, oh teach them to rely
    On Christ the sinner's friend who reigns on high

    Christmas Is Near
    Composer(s): Jeanette Wormald



    When the spinifex flowers and harvest begins
    We know that Christmas is near
    When the bitumen shimmers in summer's heat haze
    We know that Christmas is near
    When the grain trucks cue at the silos
    And our town comes alive with its lights
    Like small coloured jewels, they sparkle
    In the warmth of a December night

    So here's to Christmas, red ochre plains and opal blue skies
    Late summer evenings and cockatoo dawns
    When spirits and temperatures rise
    So here's to Christmas, grey kangaroos, the currawong sings
    We gather together beneath southern stars
    To remember the birth of our King

    When cicadas sing harmony in eucalyptus
    We know that Christmas is near
    When Sunday Schools practise nativity plays
    We know that Christmas is near
    When the kitchen is busy with baking
    Sights and smells of Christmas delights
    And friends and families gather, to celebrate into the night

    It's Going To Take Some Time
    Composer(s): Carole King; Toni Stern
    First release by: Carole King - 1971
    Covered by multiple other artists



    It's gonna' to take some time this time
    to get myself in shape
    I really fell outta line this time
    I really missed the gate
    the birds on the telephone line (this time)
    are calling out to me (this time)
    and I won't be so blind next time and I'll find some harmony

    and it's gonna' to take some time this time
    no matter what I plan
    and like the young trees
    in the winter time
    I'll learn how to bend
    after all the tears we've shed
    how could we make amends
    so it's one more round for experience
    and I'm on the road again.....
    and it's gonna' to take some time, this time.....

    after all the tears we've shed
    how could we make amends
    so it's one more round for experience
    and I'm on the road again...
    and it's gonna' to take some time
    this time........
