Look At The Wood Composer(s): Grace Slick - Paul Kantner Performer(s): Grace Slick; Paul Kantner
Look at the wood and the way he carves it Must have taken him years I asked him the price and he said it was free And I couldn't believe my ears
Tell me old man how long have you lived To have such amazing talent I'm twenty years short of a century And the best years are in the balance
As a baby his mother had fed him frogs And a wide assortment of lizards It made him tough and wise and strange And gave him the mind of a wizard
He had a new woman every five years Faithful to each in her turn They gave him children and time to smile And he showed them all the love they could learn The man had love to burn
Now he's lived his life and he'll live it again Thru one more gentle soul You'll know him by his smile and his fork held high He'll be dining on toads and moles
Look at the wood and the way he carves it Look at the sun, the golden harvest Must have taken him years
That Heart Belongs To Me Composer(s): Webb Pierce Performer(s): Webb Pierce - 1952 and multiple other artists
There are so many flirty guys with flirty flirty ways And I'm so afraid that they will steal your heart some day But don't don't let 'em darlin', 'cause you belong to me Oh, don't ever let them make you think your heart is fancy free Don't, don't let 'em darlin', 'cause you belong to me
They'll tell you that I trifle and that you should do the same They'll tell you that they need your love, so why not make the change But don't don't do it darlin', that heart belongs to me Oh, please don't let them blind you, I still love you can't you see Don't, don't let 'em darlin', that heart belongs to me
They'll offer you a mansion, ask you when you'll be their queen So they can give you riches, make your life a happy dream But don't don't let 'em darlin', that dream belongs to me Oh, sure they'll try to buy your love with riches such as these But don't don't let 'em darlin', that heart belongs to me
Look At That, Look At That Composer(s): Kim Wilson - Jimmie Vaughan - Fran Christina - Preston Hubbard Performer(s): The Fabulous Thunderbirds
Went to a party on Saturday night Lookin' real cool and dressed just right Saved my money every week Just could not spend it on those fine chicks (Got) Gotta my car and (walked) in the door You know (just) what I was lookin' for
Look at that blonde in the redskin tights Don't go with her she's the one that bites A fine, fine thing in a short short skirt She ain't attached and she likes to flirt A whole lotta woman is where it's at Hey now boys will you just look at that
I don't know which way to turn Every way I look my eyeballs burn Short gals, tall gals skinny and fat Look at that, look at that, look at that, look at that
See them twins in fishnet hose I'll take either one or both of those Sally over there still long and lean She's got the key to my lovin' machine All these girls are lookin' just right At a hip-shakin' party on a Saturday night

Waterman, ben jij een waterman? Dan past jou sterrenbeeld bij mij Intuïtief, heb ik je nu al lief 't Is net of jij, eenvoudig hoort bij mij
Waterman, mijn teken en talisman Van nu af aan hoor jij bij mij Waterman, zachtmoedige waterman Mijn liefste man, dat ben jij
Sterrenbeeld, dat niet met harten speelt Maar mensen helpen wil, altijd Jij kent gewoon, geen ruwe heerserstoon Jij zoekt altijd, naar warme menselijkheid
Waterman, mijn teken en talisman Van nu af aan hoor jij bij mij Waterman, zachtmoedige waterman Mijn liefste man, dat ben jij
Waterman, mijn teken en talisman Van nu af aan hoor jij bij mij Waterman, zachtmoedige waterman Mijn liefste man, dat ben jij
Die altijd fair bent Altijd trouw en solidair bent Maar ook vaak zo goedgelovig En voor slechtheid ietwat dovig Soms zo ernstig, haast verlegen maar oneindig toegenegen Waterman

Oho, I'm in a whirl whenever that girl appears Look at that smile, look at that style, I would go most any place Just to see that lovely face
Yes my sweetie's come back to me
What can I say to show you the way I feel When she's with me you're sure to see A twinkle in my eye Just look at that girl and you'll know the reason why
Look at that girl, you see what I see Hey! Look at that girl, she's walking straight to me That's right, last night I held her tight It happens all the time Ain't she a vision of satin and lace I'm seeing angels all over the place I look at that girl, and I can't believe she's mine

Kuin Silloin Ennen First performance by: Jarkko & Laura - 1969
Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen Silloin ennen, on kaikki yhtä hyvin taas Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen Silloin ennen, on kaikki hyvin taas
Taas tunnen uudestaan kuin silloin ennen Kuin eilispäivää ollutkaan ei ois Nyt luokses tulla saan kuin silloin ennen Ja tiedän, etten lähde koskaan pois
Silmät loistaa sun - vain sen, en enempää mä nää Sydän toistaa mun, sen minkä livertää Tuo sinirinta satakieli
Kaikki taas on niin kuin silloin ennen Ja toivoa en muuta enää vois
Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen Silloin ennen, on kaikki yhtä hyvin taas Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen Silloin ennen, on kaikki hyvin taas
Kaikki taas on niin kuin silloin ennen Ja toivoa en muuta enää vois
Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen Silloin ennen, on kaikki yhtä hyvin taas Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen Silloin ennen, on kaikki hyvin taas
