Seigneur De Guerre Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
Il est d'une grâce fauve Il est tranquille et brutal Silencieux quand il se pose Entre Dieu et l'Animal Sous la peau brillant dans l'ombre De longs muscles de métal Homme seul, homme sombre Où est le bien et le mal
Noir comme le diable Chaud comme l'enfer Insaisissable Seigneur de guerre
Rythmes forts Juste avant le jour Pour les morts Qui ont le cur lourd Les tambours Battent aussi pour Ton amour
Soleils pourpres et chevaux noirs Odeurs de cuivre et de peaux Longue lame qui sépare D'un seul coup le ciel et l'eau Il viendra devant ta porte Sans descendre de cheval Et il faudra que tu portes Deux bracelets de métal
Noir comme le diable Chaud comme l'enfer Insaisissable Seigneur de guerre
Ce jour-là Si tu l'aimes encore Ce sera Plus fort que la mort Les tambours Battent aussi pour Ton amour
Homme seul Homme de fer Grand Massaï Seigneur de guerre Les tambours Battent aussi pour Ton cur lourd
Quand Tu Dors Près De Moi Titles In Other Languages: Melodie Poesie; Quando Tu Dormirai; No Es El Adios Composer(s): Françoise Sagan; Johannes Brahms; Georges Auric Performer(s): Dalida; M. Altery; Helen Merrill; Yves Montand
Quand tu dors près de moi Tu murmures parfois Le nom mal oublié De cet homme que tu aimais
Et tout seul près de toi Je me souviens tout bas Toutes ces choses que je crois Mais que toi, ma chérie, tu ne crois pas
Les gestes étourdissants Etourdis de la nuit Les mots émerveillés Merveilleux de notre amour
Si cet air te rejoint Si tu l'entends soudain Je t'en pris, comme moi Ne dis rien, mais rappelle-toi, chérie
Shotgun Slade Composer(s): W. Smith; Ralph Stanley Performer(s): Ralph Stanley
Pa said, "Son, this land is yours" Was his last words, I heard "I'm here to say I'll die today On a strength of my Pa's words"
Our leader stepped down to face him Said, "Son, we mean no harm We came today to cut a right-of-way For the railroad through your farm"
"Pa said there'd be many like you Who'll try to steal my land Not to beckon it, but to call each bluff With a shotgun in my hand"
"So, take your crew and leave here" He then warned, the young lad said The leader laughed and went on to work And he shot our leader dead
Shotgun, that's what they called him He was only seventeen But Shotgun Slade with a gun in his hand Was the meanest man I've seen
No-one else even raised a tune Instead we all turned tale The Sheriff didn't even bother To put Shotgun in jail
The land ain't deeds and records They searched all day till night They all agreed to let him be To Shotgun Slade goodbye
So today way out in Texas There's a road that's still unmade There's never been a choo-choo train Cross the land of Shotgun Slade
Shotgun, that's what they called him He was only seventeen But Shotgun Slade with a gun in his hand Was the meanest man I've seen
Shotgun, Shotgun But Shotgun Slade with a gun in his hand Was the meaniest man I've seen But Shotgun Slade with his gun in his hand Was the meanest man I've seen But Shotgun Slade with the gun in his hand Was the meanest man I've seen
Just a Little Lovin' (Will Go A Long, Long Way) Composer(s): Eddy Arnold; Zeke Clements First recording/First release by: Eddy Arnold - 1948 Covered by multiple other artists
Just a little lovin' will go a long way And you'll make me happy the rest of my days Put your arms around me, then I'll be your slave 'Cause just a little lovin' will go a long way
Ever since time began, love has ruled the world Eve and Adam set the pace and started in a whirl I met you and now I know that you're the one for me Come on back and you will plainly see
That just a little lovin' will go a long way And you'll make me happy the rest of my days Put your arms around me, then I'll be your slave 'Cause just a little lovin' will go a long way
I don't believe you really know how much that I love you If you did you'd come on back and make my dreams come true Your eyes, your lips, your loving kisses seem to linger yet I'll forgive but please don't you forget.
That just a little lovin' will go a long way And you'll make me happy the rest of my days Put your arms around me, then I'll be your slave 'Cause just a little lovin' will go a long way
Quand Tu Es Là ((Adapted from: The Game Of Love (Wayne Fontana and The Mindbenders) - 1964)) Composer(s): Clint Ballard Jr. - Franck Gérald Performer(s): Sylvie Vartan - 1965
Malgré les jours de pluie malgré les nuages Qui s'amusent à me cacher les rayons du soleil Je vois toujours un coin de ciel bleu Aussi bleu que tes yeux Quand tu es là là la la la la la
Malgré le vent trop fort qui bat nos visages Et ce vent qui va encore pleurer cette nuit Je vois toujours un coin de ciel bleu Aussi bleu que tes yeux Quand tu es là là la la la la la
Je ne peux plus me passer de toi J'ai besoin d'être dans tes bras Tout s'arrange aussitôt pour moi Dès que tu es là
Malgré tous les ennuis malgré les orages Qui menacent quelquefois l'horizon de ma vie Je vois toujours un coin de ciel bleu Aussi bleu que tes yeux Quand tu es là là là là là là là
Sei Solo Un Uomo In Più (French Version: Rien Qu'un Homme De Plus) Composer(s): Amerigo Casella; Alberto Cheli; Murio Luberti Performer(s): Dalida
Io non ne morirei caro amore moi Perchè in fondo è vero, che non c'è cosa migliore Di una notte d'amore senza troppe parole E se vuoi farmi un favore no non parlarmi d'amore
Sei solo un uomo in più, sei solo un uomo in più Sei solo un uemo in più, sei solo un uomu in più
Non ti sei chiesto mai caro amore moi Se ho bisogno anch'io di un amore vero Senza il falso pudore che ti porti nel uore
L'immagine bianca di una donna Che vive di un unico amore Non è che mi faccia impazzire di gioia L'immagine triste di un uomo Che cerchi una donna fedele Per dire al suo stupido orgoglio Ti senti più uomo Senza nessun rimpianto mi fai dire soltante
Sei solo un uomo in più, sei solo un uomo in più Sei solo un uomo in più, sei solo un uomo in più
L'immagine bianca di una donna Che vive di un unico amore Non è che mi faccia impazzire di gioia L'immagine triste di un uomo Che cerchi una donna fedele Per dire al suo stupido orgoglio Ti senti più uomo Senza nessun rimpianto mi fai dire soldanto
Sei solo un uomo in più, sei solo un uomo in più Sei solo un uomo in più, sei solo un uomo in più...
Quand Tu M'Aimes English Title: When You Love Me Composer(s): Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour; Isabelle Boulay
C'est le vent turbulent Soulevant tes dessous C'est la pluie de printemps Qui vient lécher mes joues Quand tu m'aimes
C'est le soleil brûlant Qui caresse ma peau Et l'air léger du temps Au souffle doux et chaud Quand tu m'aimes
C'est en plus de tout ça Mille choses encore Qui sont à toi et moi Et perturbent mon corps D'une infinie faiblesse Quand tu m'aimes
C'est ta voix qui se perd Dans un râle amoureux Qui fait vibrer ma chair Et qui mouille mes yeux De larmes de tendresse Quand tu m'aimes
C'est le diable et l'enfer Mêlés à tous nos jeux C'est le ciel qu'est offert A nous par tous les Dieux Quand tu m'aimes
C'est l'éclipse et l'éclair Qui allument nos joies C'est l'écume des mers Qui se meurt sur tes doigts
Quand tu m'aimes C'est pétri par tes mains Tous mes sens éveillés C'es mon corps sur le tien Nos souffle saccadés Et nos gestes intimes Quand tu m'aimes
Ce sont ces tendres cris Et ces plaintes d'amour Qui déchirent nos nuits Et meurent au petit jour Dans le plaisir ultime Quand tu m'aimes Quand tu m'aimes Quand tu m'aimes Mon amour
Quaaludes Again Composer(s): Shel Silverstein Performer(s): Shel Silverstein; Bobby Dare
She falls through the doorway Rolls down the hall She bounces off the sofa And walks into the wall It's easy to see that she buckles and bends She's doin' quaaludes again
Quaaludes again Quaaludes again If you've got aurora You know for shorra She's your friend
She's doin' quaaludes again
(guitar music)
She fumbles and stumbles And falls down the stairs Makes love to the leg of the diningroom chair She's ready for animals, women or men
She's doin' quaaludes again
Quaaludes again Again Again Quaaludes again
If you've got a lemon, a dog and three women Then she's your friend
She's doing quaaludes again Quaaludes again

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
