    Sister Ray
    Composer(s): John Cale; Sterling Morrison; Maureen Tucker; Lou Reed
    First release by: The Velvet Underground - 1968
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Duck and Sally inside
    They're cooking for the down five
    Who're staring at Miss Rayon
    Who's busy licking up her big man
    I'm searching for my mainline
    I said I couldn't hit it sideways
    I said I couldn't hit it sideways
    Ah, it's just like Sister Ray says

    Rosy and Miss Rayon
    They're busy waiting for her booster
    Who just got back from Carolina
    She said she didn't like the weather
    They're busy waiting for her Sailor
    Who said he's just as big as ever
    He's just here from Alabama
    He wants to know a way to earn a dollar
    I'm searching for my mainline
    I couldn't hit it sideways
    Ah, just like Sister Ray said

    Cecil's got his new piece
    He cocks and shoots between three and four
    He aims it at the Sailor
    Shoots him down dead on the floor
    Oh, you shouldn't do that
    Don't you know you'll stain the carpet
    Don't you know you'll stain the carpet
    And by the way man, have you got a dollar
    Oh no man, I haven't got the time time
    Too busy sucking on a ding dong
    She's too busy sucking on my ding dong
    Oh, she does it just like Sister Ray said
    I'm searching for my mainline
    I said I couldn't hit it sideways
    I couldn't hit it sideways
    Oh, just like, just like Sister Ray says

    Now, who's that knocking
    Who's that knocking on my chamber door
    Now could it be the police
    They've come to take me for a ride ride
    Oh, but I haven't got the time time
    Too busy sucking on my ding dong
    She's too busy sucking on my ding dong
    Oh, now, just like Sister Ray said
    I'm searching on my line
    I couldn't hit it sideways
    I couldn't hit it sideways
    Oh now, just like, just like, just like.....
    Sister Ray says

    Photographs And Memories
    Composer(s): Jim Croce
    Performer(s): Jim Croce;
    Priscilla Almeda; Crystal Bernard



    Photographs and memories
    Christmas cards you sent to me
    All that I have are these
    To remember you

    Memories that come at night
    Take me to another time
    Back to a happier day
    When I called you mine

    But we sure had a good time
    When we started way back when
    Morning walks and bedroom talks
    Oh how I loved you then

    Summer skies and lullabies
    Nights we couldn't say good-bye
    And of all of the things that we knew
    Not a dream survived

    Photographs and memories
    All the love you gave to me
    Somehow it just can't be true
    That's all I've left of you

    But we sure had a good time
    When we started way back when
    Morning walks and bedroom talks
    Oh how I loved you then

    Ein Hoch Der Liebe
    First performance by: Wencke Myhre - 1968



    Ein Hoch der Liebe, vive l'amour three cheers for love, viva l'amor' Die uns're Welt so jung erhält Es war beim ersten Mal, vielleicht hab' ich mich da noch geirrt Es war beim zweiten Mal, da hast Du mich schon sehr verwirrt Doch beim dritten Mal, da ahnte ich gleich, wohin das führt Und dann beim vierten Mal, hab' ich genau gespürt Das ist das erste Mal für mich, und nur Du bist schuld daran Das ist das erste Mal für mich, das ich sagen kann Das ist das erste Mal für mich, und nur Du bist schuld daran Das ist das erste Mal für mich, das ich sagen kann So ist es jedes Mal mit Dir, und nur Du bist schuld daran daß ich das nächste Mal mit Dir kaum noch erwarten kann Denn beim ersten Mal, da wußte ich schon wohin das führt daß es ein letztes Mal für uns nie geben wird Ein Hoch der Liebe, vive l'amour three cheers for love, viva l'amor' Die uns're Welt so jung erhält Seit sich die Erde dreht wie auch Dein Glücksstern steht wohin der Wind Dich weht Ein Hoch der Liebe, vive l'amour three cheers for love, viva l'amor' die immer blüht, wohin man sieht die un'sre Welt so jung erhält

    Performer(s): Ringo Starr;
    and various other artists



    Every time I see your face
    it reminds me of the places we used to go
    But all I got is a photograph
    and I realize you're not coming back anymore

    I thought I’d make it the day you went away
    but I can't make it till you come home again to stay

    I can't get used to living here, while my heart is broke, my tears, I cried for you
    I want you here to have and hold, as the years go by and we grow old and grey

    Now you're expecting me to live without you
    but that's not something that I’m looking forward to

    I can't get used to living here, while my heart is broke, my tears, I cried for you
    I want you here to have and hold, as the years go by and we grow old and grey

    Every time I see your face it reminds me of the places we used to go
    But all I got is a photograph and I realize you're not coming back anymore
    Every time I see your face it reminds me of the places we used to go
    But all I got is a photograph and I realize you're not coming back anymore
    Every time I see your face it reminds me of the places we used to go
    But all I got is a photograph and I realize you're not coming back anymore

    Calling Sister Midnight
    You've got me reaching for the moon
    Calling Sister Midnight
    You've got me playing the fool
    Calling Sister Midnight

    Calling Sister Midnight
    Can you hear me call
    Can you hear me well
    Can you hear me at all
    Calling Sister Midnight
    I'm an Idiot for you
    Calling Sister Midnight
    I'm a breakage inside
    Calling Sister Midnight
    Calling Sister Midnight
    You know I had a dream last night
    Mother was in my bed
    And I made love to her
    Father he gunned for me
    Hunted me with his six gun
    Calling Sister Midnight
    What can I do about my dreams

    Listen to me Sister Midnight
    You put a beggar in my heart
    Calling Sister Midnight
    You've got me walking in rags
    Hey where are you Sister Midnight
    Can you hear me call
    Can you hear me well
    Can you hear me at all

    La la la la la la la la la la...

    Yo canto a la mañana
    Que ve mi juventud
    Y al sol que día a día
    Nos trae nueva inquietud

    Todo en la vida es
    Como una canción
    Que cantan cuando naces
    Y también en el adiós

    La la la la la la la la la la...
    La la la la la la la la...
    La la la la la la la la la la...
    La la la la la la la...

    Le canto a mi madre
    Que dio vida a mi ser
    Le canto a la tierra
    Que me ha visto crecer

    Y canto al día en que
    Sentí el amor
    Andando por la vida
    Aprendí esta canción

    La la la la la la la la la la...
    La la la la la la la la...
    La la la la la la la la la la...

    I'm in a phone booth, baby
    number scratched on the wall

    number scratched on the wall
    I'm new in Chicago
    got no one else to call

    Been walking all day
    old friends I can't find
    hawks so cold
    head about me some wine
    Calling you, baby
    took my very last dime

    A little phone booth, baby
    number scratched upon the wall
    I'm in a phone booth, baby
    number scratched on the wall
    I'm new in Chicago
    got no one else to call

    Said call big a reader
    anytime day or night
    You know I'm broken up cold, baby
    and I hope you'll treat me right
    I'm in a phone booth, baby
    and the cold wind loud outside

    Sister Josephine
    Composer(s): Jake Thackray
    Performer(s): Jake Thackray
    and multiple other artists



    Oh, Sister Josephine
    What do all these policemen mean
    By coming to the convent in a grim limousine
    After Sister Josephine?

    While you, Sister Josephine
    You sit with your boots up on the altar screen
    You smoke one last cigar
    What a funny nun you are

    The policemen say that Josephine's a burglar in disguise
    Big bad Norman - fifteen years on the run
    The sisters disbelieve it: No, that can't be Josephine
    Just think about her tenderness towards the younger nuns

    Oh, Sister Josephine
    They're searching the chapel where you've been seen
    The nooks and the crannies of the nun's canteen
    After Sister Josephine

    While you, Sister Josephine
    You sip one farewell Benedictine
    Before your au revoir
    A right funny nun you are

    Admittedly her hands are big and hairy
    And embellished with a curious tattoo
    Admittedly her voice is on the deep side
    And she seems to shave more often than the other sisters do

    Oh, Sister Josephine
    Founder of the convent pontoon team
    They're looking through your bundles of rare magazines
    After Sister Josephine

    While you, Sister Josephine
    You give a goodbye sniff of benzedrine
    To the convent budgerigar
    A bloody funny nun you are

    No longer will her snores ring through the chapel during prayers
    Nor her lustful moanings fill the stilly night
    No more empty bottles of altar wine come clunking from her cell
    No longer will the cloister toilet seat stand upright

    Oh, Sister Josephine
    Slipping through their fingers like vaseline
    Leaving them to clutch your empty crinoline
    After Sister Josephine

    While you, Sister Josephine
    Sprinting through the suburbs when last seen
    Dressed only in your wimple and your rosary
    A right funny nun you seem to be

    Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg



    I have cried too...I have cried too long
    I have cried too...I have cried too long
    No more sorrow...got to carry on

    Found deep water before I'd even learned to swim
    Found deep water before I'd even learned to swim
    Never thought I'd see the sun again
    Once I was a...once I was a man alone
    Once I was a...once I was a man alone
    Now I've found a heart to call my home
    Like a Phoenix I have risen from the flames
    Like a Phoenix I have risen from the flames
    No more living someone else's dreams

    I have cried too...I have cried too long
    I have cried too...I have cried too long
    No more sorrow...got to carry on
    You almost had me, old lady
    You almost tied me down good
    You played the lady in waiting
    And I waited as long as I could
    Too long the songs have been silent
    Too long the strings have been still
    I never knew what you wanted
    And I guess that I never will
    Like a Phoenix I have risen from the flames
    Like a Phoenix I have risen from the flames
    No more living someone else's dreams

    I have cried too...I have cried too long
    I have cried too...I have cried too long
    No more sorrow...got to carry on

    Chance Of A Lifetime
    First performance by: Pat McGeegan - 1968



    One day, while I was out walking
    I saw your face in the midst of a crowd
    Here, I thought, is the chance of a lifetime
    I thought you'd stepped from a cloud

    Think of that wonderful meeting
    oh... the sun shone down on us from above
    Why should I be out walking that day
    and get the chance of a lifetime of love?

    Show me the way you are feeling
    always tell me just what I should know
    Oh... a guiding hand must have brought us together
    but now that seems so long ago

    You are the one I have dreamt of, oh...
    I never thought my dreams would come true
    All I want is the chance of a lifetime
    the chance of a lifetime with you

    Show me the way you are feeling
    lways tell me just what I should know
    Oh... a guiding hand must have brought us together
    but now that seems so long ago

    You are the one I have dreamt of
    I never thought my dreams would come true
    All I want is the chance of a lifetime
    the chance of a lifetime with you

    All I want is the chance of a lifetime
    the chance of a lifetime with you

    À Sophie M. de la part de
    Platon, Spinoza, Hierkegaard et quelques autres

    Vous, belle insolente,
    Dont je sais peu de choses, à part le nom
    La marche est lente
    À suivre votre pas entre le oui et le non

    Vous, belle indolente
    Qui mettez tant de temps à vous montrer
    Longue est la pente
    Qu'il faut savoir monter pour vous approcher de près

    Mais quoiqu'il en coûte
    Quand on se réveille à vos côtés
    Moins impie que l'on se voudrait
    On sait, sans aucun doute
    Que si votre corps est un délit
    Tant de délices y sont permis

    Vous, belle insoumise
    Dont les beaux yeux d'amour mourir me font
    Que je vous dise
    Combien, loin de vos charmes, on reste à toucher le fond

    Vous, belle ingénue
    Même trop maquillée, mal vêtue
    Vous restez la vérité nue
    Celle que l'on courtise
    Et qui oblige à la retenue
    Jusqu'à tutoyer la Vertu

    Vous, que rien ne grise
    Même si parfois pour vos beaux yeux
    On a tout dit, tout fait, je veux
    Ce soir simplement dire
    Que, même si c'est de la folie
    À vie, vous serez ma philo-Sophie

    Well I tried to make it Sunday

    Performer(s): Woody Guthrie;
    and various other artists



    Way out in Reno Nevada
    Where romance blooms and fades
    A great Philadelphia lawyer
    Was in love with a Hollywood maid

    Come love and we will wander
    Down where the lights are bright
    I'll win you a divorce from your husband
    And we can get married tonight

    Now, Bill was a gun totin' cowboy
    Ten notches were carved on his gun
    And all the boys around Reno
    Left Wild Bill's maiden alone

    One night when he was returning
    From riding the range in the cold
    He dreamed of his Hollywood sweetheart
    Her love was as lasting as gold

    As he drew near her window
    Two shadows he saw in the shade
    Twas a great Philadelphia lawyer
    Making love to Bill's Hollywood maid

    The night was as still as the desert
    The moon hanging high overhead
    Bill listened awhile to the window
    He could hear every word that was said

    Your hands are so pretty and lovely
    Your form so rare and divine
    Come go with me to the city
    And leave this wild cowboy behind

    Tonight back in old Pennsylvania
    Among those beautiful pines
    There's one less Philadelphia lawyer
    In old Philadelphia tonight

    Performer(s): Joni Mitchell



    Sisotowbell Lane
    Noah is fixing the pump in the rain
    He brings us no shame
    We always knew that he always knew

    Up over the hill
    Jovial neighbors come down when they will
    With stories to tell
    Sometimes they do
    Yes sometimes we do
    We have a rocking chair
    Each of us rocks his share
    Eating muffin buns and berries
    By the steamy kitchen window
    Sometimes we do
    Our tongues turn blue

    Sisotowbell Lane
    Anywhere else now would seem very strange
    The seasons are changing
    Everyday in everyway
    Sometimes it is spring
    Sometimes it is not anything
    A poet can sing
    Sometimes we try
    Yes we always try
    We have a rocking chair
    Somedays we rock and stare
    At the woodlands and the grasslands
    and the badlands 'cross the river
    Sometimes we do
    We like the view

    Sisotowbell Lane
    Go to the city you'll come back again
    To wade thru the grain
    You always do
    Yes we always do
    Come back to the stars
    Sweet well water and pickling jars

    We'll lend you the car
    We always do
    Yes sometimes we do
    We have a rocking chair
    Someone is always there
    Rocking rhythms while they're waiting
    with the candle in the window
    Sometimes we do
    We wait for youSisotowbell Lane

    Philadelphia Freedom
    Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin
    Performer(s): Elton John



    I used to be a rolling stone
    You know if the cause was right
    I'd leave to find the answer on the road
    I used to be a heart beating for someone
    But the times have changed
    The less I say the more my work gets done

    `Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom
    From the day that I was born I've waved the flag
    Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man
    Yeah gave me peace of mind my daddy never had

    Oh Philadelphia freedom shine on me, I love you
    Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind
    Shine a light shine a light
    Shine a light won't you shine a light
    Philadelphia freedom I love you, yes I do

    If you choose to you can live your life alone
    Some people choose the city
    Some others choose the good old family home
    I like living easy without family ties
    Till the whippoorwill of freedom zapped me
    Right between the eyes

    Sir William Gower
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Fairport Convention



    I am a sailor, both stout and strong
    To a goodly vessel I do belong
    Well guard and anchored and well equipped
    Sir William Gower and a very fine ship

    Our captain in his cabin lay
    When a dreadful voice to him did say
    "This night with me in the deep you'll be
    So prepare yourself and your company"

    The sky grew dark and the sea grew still
    Though the men were fearful and the air was chill
    Sir William rose to meet his men
    Saying "Hear me now for I'll not speak again"

    "I loved my mother when she was alive
    And to my sister I gave babies five
    I killed my wife and her children three
    So I now must face what has come for me"

    "You'll lash a timber close to my side
    And throw me out on the water wide
    And if I swim then let me be
    But if I sink them pray for me"

    So we tied his head and we tied his feet
    And around his middle a winding sheet
    At every knot the sea did stir
    Grew ready for the murderer

    And then we saw his open grave
    The likeness of a single wave
    That swept our ship from her stern to her bow
    And bore away Sir William Gower

    Philadelphia Filly
    Composer(s): Tracy Pendarvis
    Performer(s): Tracy Pendarvis



    Tallahassie Lassie had a lot on the ball
    Susie Q and Peggy Sue has met you all
    My Philly filly from old P A
    A modern day rocker in a space age way
    Philadelphia filly
    Man, she's a dilly, hey!

    When she's dancin', she can really go
    Twistin' or a-boppin', she steals the show
    Looks so neat, walkin' down the street
    She's my filly and she can't be beat
    Philadelphia filly
    Man, she's a dilly, no!

    When she kisses, she makes a smack
    Makes a shiver run up my back
    Dressed for a weddin' or in old blue jeans
    Sweetest gal that you've ever seen
    Philadelphia filly
    Man, she's a dilly, hey!

    Number one rocker all over this land
    Swingin' to the music on the big bandstand
    Speaking in class or doin' handjive
    Makes everybody just come alive
    Philadelphia filly
    Man she's a dilly, hey!

    When she's dancin', she can really go
    Twistin' or a-boppin', she steals the show
    Looks so neat, walkin' down the street
    She's my filly and she can't be beat
    Philadelphia filly
    Man, she's a dilly, hey!

    Philadelphia filly
    Oh, she's a dilly
    Philadelphia filly
    Oh, more pity..........

    Marianne
    Composer(s): G. Bigazzi; Sergio Endrigo
    First performance by: Sergio Endrigo - 1968



    Marianne
    Mi fai felice per un attimo
    Poi non vivo più
    Marianne

    Che cos'è
    Questa gran voglia che hai di correre?
    Non ti fermi mai
    Qui con me

    Dove vai? Da dove vieni amore?
    Dove vai? Rimani ancora accanto a me
    Se per sognare vendi i sogni tuoi
    Forse è disperata la tua gioventù

    Marianne
    Tu ami i fiori e non ti accorgi mai
    Che io amo te
    Marianne

    Marianne
    Dove vai? Da dove vieni amore?
    Dove vai? Rimani ancora accanto a me

    Tu ami i fiori e non ti accorgi mai
    Che io amo te
