Jim Bridger Composer(s): Leon Payne Performer(s): Johnny Horton; Bev Munro
Once there was a mountain man who couldn't write his name Yet, he deserves a front row seat in history's hall of fame He forgot more about the Indians than we will ever know He spoke the language of the Sioux, the Blackfoot and the Crow (Let's drink to old Jim Bridger, yes, lift your glasses high) As long as there's a USA, don't let his memory die (That he was makin' history never once occured to him) But I doubt if we'd'a been here, if it weren't for men like Jim He spoke with General Custer and said, "Listen, Yellow Hair, The Sioux are a great nation, so treat 'em fair and square, Sit in on their war council, don't laugh away their pride" But Custer didn't listen, at Little Big Horn Custer died (Let's drink to old Jim Bridger, yes, lift your glasses high) As long as there's a USA, don't let his memory die (That he was makin' history never once occured to him) But I doubt if we'd'a been here, if it weren't for men like Jim There's poems and there's legends that tell of Carson's fame Yet, compared to Jim Bridger, Kit was civilised and tame These words are straight from Carson's lips, if you place such store by him "If there's a man who knows this Godforsaken land, it's Jim" (Let's drink to old Jim Bridger, yes, lift your glasses high) As long as there's a USA, don't let his memory die (That he was makin' history never once occured to him) But I doubt if we'd'a been here, if it weren't for men like Jim
Quadrilha Composer(s): Francis Hime; Chico Buarque Performer(s): Chico Buarque
E neste ano, como todo ano, uma vez por ano Tem quadrilha no arraial E neste ano, como sempre, salvo chuva e salvo engano A satisfação é geral Não me leve a mal Não me leve a mal
O forró corria manso, sem problema e sem vexame Quando o chefe da quadrilha decretou changer de dame A mulher do delegado recebeu o bacharel O peão laçou a jovem filha do coronel A Terezuinha Crediário deu um passo com o vigário A beata com o sacristão Diz que a senhora do prefeito Merecidamente eleito Foi com o líder da oposição Não tem nada não Não tem nada não
Zé-com-fome deitou olho na patroa do ``seu'' Lima Que não faz xodó na moça mas também não sai de cima Juca largou a sanfona e, abandonando o salão Foi prevaricar com a dona que vendia quentão E foi doente com doutora, indigente e protetora Foi aluna com professor E o perigoso bandoleiro, Zé Durango ``El Justicero'' Fez beicinho pro promotor Mas, faça o favor! Mas, faça o favor!
O forró estereofônico estava mesmo um barato Muita música na praça e muita dança lá no mato Quem gozou da brincadeiram, muito bom, muito bem Quem tomou chá de cadeira, só no ano que vem Pois nesse ano, como todo ano, uma vez por ano Tem quadrilha no arraial E nesse ano, como sempre, salvo chuva e salvo engano A satisfação é geral Ninguém leva a mal Ninguém leva a mal
Estuve unos instantes con las alas quietas Perdido en laberintos del "no se, quizá, tal vez..." Sobre una nube de esas como de acuarela Me hacia esas respuestas que no se deben hacer Bastó ese breve tiempo de darse una tregua Para sentir de pronto una traición bajo mis pies El fuego de un relámpago quemo mis piernas las alas se salvaron y no se muy bien por que Para vivir En pie de guerra Segundos fuera, segundos fuera... Que hoy por hoy, sigo aquí, aquí Estuve unos instantes con la vela arriada Perdido en laberintos del 'quien soy y a donde voy...' creyendo que la mar se desnudaba en calma salte a sus humedades y le declare mi amor Basto ese breve tiempo de volver al agua Para sentirme envuelto por los vientos de un ciclón El odio de las olas desvío mi barca Seguí la singladura que un albatros me marcó Para vivir Estuve unos instantes con la guardia baja Perdido en laberintos del "¿soy uno, dos o tres?"
Absorto en esa duda no oí la campana o acaso su tañido me evocaba mi niñez Bastó ese breve tiempo de volver a casa Para sentir un golpe bajo que me hizo caer La lona me beso mordiendo unas monedas La fuerza de aquel golpe me ayudo a ponerme en pie Para vivir ...

Seguirá Vivo En Mí Composer(s): José Miguel Galllardo; J. Israel Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Cuando el tiempo pase cruel y se arrugue nuestra piel, con su huella y se vayan de este hogar nuestros hijos para andar, tras su estrella Cuando no haya porvenir y el deseo de vivir sea fatiga cuando no nos quede ya nada nuevo que esperar de la vida Seguirá vivo en mi cada instante de hoy seguirá vivo en mi, mi amor por la fuerza de hoy Seguirá vivo en mi cada instante de hoy seguirá vivo en mi, mi amor por la fuerza de hoy Cuando casi sin querer se blanquee nuestra cien, como nieve y tengamos que matar esos pocos años más, que nos queden Cuando nuestro atardecer un recuerdo del ayer, aún nos lleve a un jardín de inmensidad donde hace tiempo ya, que no llueve Seguirá vivo en mi cada instante de hoy seguirá vivo en mi, mi amor por la fuerza de hoy Seguirá vivo en mi cada instante de hoy seguirá vivo en mi, mi amor por la fuerza de hoy Seguirá vivo en mi Cuando se acerque el final y tengamos que cruzar, el sendero y recuerde con amor los momentos que a los dos, se nos fueron Cuando sólo quede ya el instante de verdad, más sincero sentirás como mi voz te repite con mi adiós, que te quiero Y seguirá vivo en ti cada beso en tu piel y seguirá vivo en ti, mi amor aunque yo ya no este seguirá vivo en ti cada beso en tu piel seguirá vivo en ti, mi amor aunque yo ya no este
Quality Shoe Composer(s): Mark Knopfler Performer(s): Mark Knopfler
You got your toecaps reinforced with steel Hard-wearing sole and heel Make those tired feet feel like new Take your pick, black or brown Great for the country or the man in town You're gonna need a quality shoe
You don't want no stand-by pair 'Cos these'll take the wear and tear Made to take good care of you For that trip by road or rail For extra grip on those rocky trails You're gonna need a quality shoe
Now they maybe ain't too hot for dancing But I don't foresee too much of that You ain't exactly gonna be prancing Around in the moonlight With a cane and a top hat
If you could use a change of pace And be excused from the rat race Just take a look at what's on view Lace 'em up, walk around I guarantee you can't wear 'em down You're gonna need a quality shoe
Now I wish you sunny skies And happiness wherever you may go But you got to realise There'll be wind, there'll be rain And occasional snow
You're gonna want to smile in them If you're gonna walk a mile in them There'll be times when you'll be blue To laugh at rainy days and then Make your getaways in them You're gonna need a quality shoe
You got your toecaps reinforced with steel Hard-wearing sole and heel Make those tired feet feel like new Take your pick, black or brown Great for the country or the man in town You're gonna need a quality shoe
See-Saw Composer(s): Richard Wright Performer(s): Pink Floyd
Marigolds are very much in love, but he doesn't mind Picking up his sister, he makes his way into the seas or land All the way she smiles She goes up while he goes down, down Sits on a stick in the river Laughter in his sleep Sister's throwing stones, hoping for a hit He doesn't know so then She goes up while he goes down, down Another time, another day A brother's way to leave Another time, another day
She'll be selling plastic flowers on a sunday afternoon
Picking up weeds, she hasn't got the time to care All can see he's not there She grows up for another man, and he's down Another time, another day A brother's way to leave Another time, another day Another time, another day A brother's way to leave
Qualquer Amor Composer(s): Chico Buarque; Francis Hime Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Francis Hime
Qualquer amor Me satisfaz Qualquer calor Qualquer rapaz Qualquer favor É só chamar Pousar a mão Qualquer lugar Qualquer verão É só chamar É tudo, é do primeiro Qualquer hora, qualquer cheiro Qualquer boca, qualquer peito Qualquer jeito de prazer Qualquer prazer é pouco Qualquer éter, qualquer louco Que o meu corpo de criança Não se cansa de querer
Qualquer amor Eu corro atrás Qualquer calor Eu quero mais Qualquer amor Qual nada
Seems Like Old Times Composer(s): Carmen Lombardo; John Jacob Loeb First release by: Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians - 1945 and multiple other artists
Remember all the things we did together All the fun we had on New Year's Eve How we danced till dawn Then darling you were gone Now it's almost too good to believe
Seems like old times, having you to walk with It seems like old times, having you to talk with And it's still a thrill just to have my arms around you Its still the thrill that it was the day I found you Its just like old times, dinner dates and flowers Its just like old times, staying up for hours Making dreams come true, doing things we used to do It seems like old times, being here with you
Seems like old times, dinner dates and flowers Seems like old times, staying up for hours Making dreams come true, and doing things we used to do It seems like old times, being here with you

Esse papo já tá qualquer coisa Você já tá prá lá de Marraquesh
Mexe qualquer coisa dentro doida Já qualquer coisa doida dentro mexe
Não se avexe não, baião de dois, deixe de manha, deixe de manha Pois sem essa aranha, sem essa aranha, sem essa aranha Nem a sanha arranha o carro, nem o sarro arranha a Espanha Nessa tamanha, nessa tamanha, esse papo seu já tá de manhã
Berro pelo aterro, pelo desterro Berro por seu berro, pelo seu erro Quero que você ganhe, que você me apanhe Sou o seu bezerro gritando mamãe
Esse papo seu tá qualquer coisa E você tá prá lá de Teerã Qualquer coisa...

Quand Elle Chante Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Gaby Wagenheim Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Quand elle chante, quand elle chante Les anges se taisent pour écouter sa voix Quand elle danse, quand elle danse Les amoureux voudraient la tenir dans leurs bras Quand elle rit, un vent léger vient emporter L'éclat de rire qu'elle daigné laisser tomber Et quand je l'aime, oui quand je l'aime croyez-moi Le monde entier voudrait l'aimer pour moi
Ah oui! c'est vraiment la plus belle Celle dont je suis amoureux Elle n'a pas de soeur jumelle Et c'est tant pis pour vous messieurs En elle tout n'est qu'harmonie On ne peut rien lui reprocher Elle est le souffle de ma vie Pourquoi? Vous pouvez en juger
Quand elle chante, quand elle chante Les anges se taisent pour écouter sa voix Quand elle danse, quand elle danse Les amoureux voudraient la tenir dans leurs bras Quand elle rit, un vent léger vient emporter L'éclat de rire qu'elle daigné laisser tomber Et quand je l'aime, oui quand je l'aime croyez-moi Le monde entier voudrait l'aimer pour moi
Elle marche comme en un rêve Auréolée d'un arc-en-ciel Et semble perdue sur la terre Tant elle paraît irréelle Je l'aime tant je peux le dire Que prés d'elle je ne vis plus J'ai même peur quand elle respire Qu'elle ne s'envole dans la rue
Quand elle chante, quand elle chante Les anges se taisent pour écouter sa voix Quand elle danse, quand elle danse Les amoureux voudraient la tenir dans leurs bras Quand elle rit, un vent léger vient emporter L'éclat de rire qu'elle daigné laisser tomber Et quand je l'aime, oui quand je l'aime croyez-moi Le monde entier voudrait l'aimer pour moi

Quand Et Puis Pourquoi Composer(s): Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Quand avons été nous-mêmes La dernière fois? Quand nous sommes-nous dit je taime La dernière fois? Quand avons nous été sincères Sans problème, sans mystère? Quand avons-nous eu linsouciance De lenfance La dernière fois?
Quand avons-nous gâché la chance Qui soffrait à nous Et brisé lamoureuse alliance Qui vivait en nous? Alors que déjà loubli se pose Et sétend sur toutes choses Sitôt que tu en aurais saisi la cause Dis-moi quand et puis pourquoi
Quand avons-nous fait fausse route La première fois? Quand avons-nous connu le doute La première fois? Quand avons-nous cherché chez dautres Dautres ivresses que les nôtres Quand avons-nous oublié dêtre Un seul être La première fois?
Quand avons-nous cessé de rire Pour un oui, un non Et trouvé bête de se dire Que nous nous aimions? Afin que nulle ombre ne demeure En mes rêves qui se meurent Ne citant que le jour et lheure Dis-moi quand et puis pourquoi
