Silver Dagger Composer(s): Traditional; Joan Baez Performer(s): Joan Baez and multiple other artists
Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother She's sleeping here right by my side And in her right hand a silver dagger She says that I can't be your bride
All men are false, says my mother They'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies The very next evening, they'll court another Leave you alone to pine and sigh
My daddy is a handsome devil He's got a chain five miles long And on every link a heart does dangle Of another maid he's loved and wronged
Go court another tender maiden And hope that she will be your wife For I've been warned, and I've decided To sleep alone all of my life
La la la... la la la... La la la... la la la la... Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii
Kuorolaulu kun lauletaan, tässä kumpikin oksallaan Saame kauemmas kuulumaan, kutsun rakkauden
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii, pesänkin rakensin Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii, tule vain armahain Kevät on vallaton, tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii Tule vain mun armahain Tipi-tii
Pas De Boogie Woogie Composer(s): Martine Layng Jr.; Claude Moine Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell; Florent Pagny
Le pape a dit que l'acte d'amour Sans être marié, est un péché Cette nouvelle il me faut l'annoncer À ma paroisse: je suis curé
J'ai pris une dose de whisky Afin de préparer mon sermon. Je n'ai pas fermé l'il de la nuit Je me posais bien trop de questions
Au petit matin, Dieu m'est apparu Et il m'a donné la solution Aussitôt, vers l'église, j'ai couru Parler à mes fidèles sur ce ton
"Mes biens chers frères, mes biens chères surs Reprenez avec moi tous en cur
Pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir {boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie} Ne faîtes pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir {boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie} Maintenant l'amour est devenu péché mortel Ne provoquez pas votre Père Eternel Pas de boogie woogie avant vos prières du soir"
Puis j'ai réclamé le silence Afin d'observer les réactions Sur certains visages de l'assistance Se reflétait surtout l'indignation
Quant aux autres, visiblement obtus Sachant qu'ils n'avaient rien compris Ils me demandèrent de faire à nouveau Le sermon du boogie woogie
"Mes biens chers frères, mes biens chères surs Reprenez avec moi tous en cur
Pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir {boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie} Ne faîtes pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir {boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie} Maintenant l'amour est devenu péché mortel Ne provoquez pas votre Père Eternel Pas de boogie woogie avant vos prières du soir"
Maintenant, tout est fait, tout est dit Mais mes fidèles sont partis Dieu, je reste seul dans ta maison J'en ai l'air, mais le dire, à quoi bon?
Si ton pape m'a fait perdre l'affaire J'irais tout droit, tout droit en enfer Mais j'essaierai encore à la messe de midi Le sermon du boogie woogie
"Mes biens chers frères, mes biens chères surs Reprenez avec moi tous en cur
Pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir {boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie} Ne faîtes pas de boogie woogie avant de faire vos prières du soir {boogie woogie, pas de boogie woogie} Maintenant l'amour est devenu péché mortel Ne provoquez pas votre Père Eternel Pas de boogie woogie avant vos prières du soir"
Get aboard the silver bird, departing gate 19 Satisfy your Walter Mitty mind, tryin' out a dream Your sign is capricorn and every corner of your mind Says you'll remain my friend, my friend until you're mine
Silver bird, fly my lady away Silver bird, take her over the bay Silver bird, give my lady a ride And let her go see what's on the other side Silver bird, fly my lady away Pretty bird, today is the day
Lone rangers and strangers will knock at her door But I know my babys' no baby no more Silver bird, fly my lady away Pretty bird, today is the day
When you come home my crazy heart will greet those silver wings Your pet dog will remember you, and I'll carry your things We'll catch a runnin' make-up, and you will look just fine And you'll remain my friend, my friend until you're mine
Silver bird, fly my lady away Silver bird, take her over the bay Silver bird, give my lady a ride And let her go see what's on the other side Silver bird, fly my lady away Pretty bird, today is the day
Party With No Name Composer(s): Barry Gibb; Maurice Gibb; Robin Gibb Performer(s): The Bee Gees
Let's get started Move in for the kill So sincere I'm here to bend your will A man without a face I give you love you've never known We can hold each other, sight unseen Touchin' on our darkest dream You can wish for something bad Lovers' lips you never had
All she wants is your love All she wants is your love
(chorus) We're the party with no name And we go from flame to flame We've got one claim to fame We're the party with no name Make those footsteps to the floor You can't see us anymore Ain't no time for the shame For the party with no name
Easy money Get yourself a job It's my invitation Been alone too long A soul without a space A party with no mane Truth is there, but she don't see Her life is just a mystery I'd give her more than I could give I'd even die that she could live
All she wants is your love All she wants is your love
(chorus) We're the party with no name And we go from flame to flame We've got one claim to fame We're the party with no name
All she wants is your love All she wants is your love

Non credevo possibile Se potessero dire queste parole
Al di lá del bene più prezioso, ci sei tu Al di lá del sogno più ambizioso, ci sei tu

Al di lá del mare più profondo, ci sei tu Al di lá de i limiti del mondo, ci sei tu Al di lá della volta infinita, al di la della vita Ci sei tu, al di la, ci sei tu per me La la la la la... La la la... (Ci sei tu...) (Ci sei tu...)
Party Till The Cows Come Home Composer(s): Elvin Bishop; Steve Miller Performer(s): Elvin Bishop; Albert Castiglia
Kick out the windows bust down the doors We're drinkin' half gallons and shoutin' for more Take off your shoes and let yourself go We're never gonna let these good times go We're gonna boogie till the rooster crows We're gonna party till the cows come home Let it roll ... Well, let it roll ...
We got all the chicken and ribs you can eat We got good time music and dancin' feet We're gonna turn up the music as loud as we please We'll be so high we can hardly see We're gonna boogie till the rooster crows We're gonna party till the cows come home Let it roll ... Ah, let it roll ...
Kick out the windows bust down the doors We're drinking half gallons like never before You gotta take off your shoes Mama let yourself go Tonight we're gonna let these good times roll We're gonna boogie till the rooster crows We're gonna party till the cows come home Let it roll ... Well, let it roll ... Let it roll ... Let it roll ...
Al Di La (Italian Version: Al Di Là - 1961) Composer(s): Mogol; Carlo Donida Labati; Ervin Drake Performer(s): Connie Francis - 1962 and multiple other artists
Al di la, means you are far above me, very far Al di la, as distant as the lovely evening star Where you walk flowers bloom When you smile all the gloom turns to sunshine And my heart opens wide When you're gone it fades inside and seems to have died
Al di la, I wondered as I drifted where you were Al di la, the fog around me lifted, there you were In the kiss that I gave was the love I had saved for a lifetime Then I knew all of you was completely mine
Party Party Composer(s): Elvis Costello Performer(s): Elvis Costello
We're gonna drink enough tonight to drown the average army By New Year's Day the next door neighbour will be goin' barmy (yep, that's how it's spelled) The milkman arrives at midday with his usual wisecrack Who knows a girl with Wednesday legs so when's they gonna snap?
Chorus: Why does everybody have to be so hale and hearty Can't they see we're tryin' to have a party party party party
The last thing I remember I was talkin' to some fellas Then she said she'd have a word for me with her good-looking mate And handed me a pint-pot filled with Advocaat and Tizer And I woke up in the flowerbed fearing fertilizer
Chorus
So shift yourself and shake your bod You got bullet proof insurance from fire, flood and Act of God You got to learn from your mistakes When you got a face like last week's Cornflakes
The doors and the window frames are by Pablo Picasso The party decorations owned by Michelangelo The fine music that you hear is by Stravinsky with overall design by Leonardo daVinci
Chorus
So shift yourself and shake your bod You got bullet proof insurance from fire, flood and Act of God You got to learn from your mistakes When you got a face like last week's Cornflakes
Two boys are upstairs in your bed Three girls are downstairs cryin' The Alka Seltzer in the glass is roarin' like a lion You think you've aged 10 years tonight and still never been kissed So you overdose on aftershave and try to slash your wrist

Are You Sure? Composer(s): Bob Allison; John Allison First performance by: The Allisons - 1961
Goodbye, goodbye farewell, farewell I'm not sure what to do So long, so long Au revoir, au revoir it's hard but I'll pull through
Are you sure you won't be sorry? Comes tomorrow, you won't want me Back again to hold you tightly?
Now are you sure it's not your foolish heart? That you won't grieve if we're to be apart? You will see, as time goes by We'll grow lonely, you and I Dreaming of each other And we'll cry
Goodbye, goodbye Farewell, farewell I'm not sure what to do
So long, so long Au revoir, au revoir It's hard but I'll pull through
Are you sure you won't be sorry? Comes tomorrow, you won't want me Back again to hold you tightly?
Just stop and think It's your decision now For you're the one Who went and broke the vow You'll be sorry, wait and see Spend your life in misery Wishing that You had returned to me
Goodbye, goodbye Farewell, farewell What is there to live for?
Before you go just think now, are you sure?
Are you sure you won't be sorry? Comes tomorrow, you won't want me Back again to hold you tightly In my arms?

Nous Les Amoureux Composer(s): Maurice Vidalin; Jacques Datin First performance by: Jean-Claude Pascal - 1961
Nous les amoureux On voudrait nous séparer On voudrait nous empêcher D'être heureux Nous les amoureux Il paraît que c'est l'enfer Qui nous guette Ou bien le fer Et le feu C'est vrai, les imbéciles et les méchants Nous font du mal, nous jouent des tours Pourtant rien n'est plus évident Que l'amour Nous les amoureux Nous ne pouvons rien contre eux Ils sont mille et l'on est deux Les amoureux
Mais l'heure va sonner Des nuits moins difficiles Et je pourrai t'aimer Sans qu'on en parle en ville C'est promis C'est écrit
Nous les amoureux Le soleil brille pour nous Et l'on dort sur les genoux Du bon Dieu Nous les amoureux Il nous a donné le droit Au bonheur et à la joie D'être deux Alors, les sans-amour, les mal-aimés, Il faudra bien nous acquitter Vous qui n'avez jamais été Condamnés Nous les amoureux Nous allons vivre sans vous Car le ciel est avec nous Les amoureux
Party Heart Composer(s): Boudleaux Bryant Performer(s): Roy Orbison
You've got a party heart, a gay time party heart You're only happy when the party's going on And it makes me sad because I know that party's have to end And when this party's over, you'll be gone
I love your party heart your playful party heart But though you make me laugh you also make me cry Cause I know you only think of me as just a party friend And when the party's done you'll say goodbye
A playtime girl like you plays lots of thrills in life it seems But oh, what I'd ever give to be the playboy of your dreams I'd tame your party heart, your fickle party heart And someday that's just what some party boy will do
But I love you so, I guess that I'll cry just as much as you When someone breaks your party heart in two (3x)
Silly Love Songs Composer(s): Paul McCartney First release by: Wings - 1976 Covered by multiple other artists
You'd think that people would have had enough of Silly Love Songs But I look around me and I see it isn't so Some people wanna fill the world with Silly Love Songs And what's wrong with that? I'd like to know, 'cause here I go again I love you, I love you I love you, I love you
I can't explain the feeling's plain to me; say can't you see? Ah, she gave me more, she gave it all to me Now can't you see, what's wrong with that I need to know, 'cause here I go again I love you, I love you
Love doesn't come in a minute sometimes it doesn't come at all I only know that when I'm in it It isn't silly, no, it isn't silly Love isn't silly at all
How can I tell you about my loved one? How can I tell you about my loved one?
How can I tell you about my loved one? (I love you) How can I tell you about my loved one? (I love you)
