    Slippin' Around
    Composer(s): Floyd Tillman
    Performer(s): Jimmy Wakely & Margaret Whiting
    and multiple other artists



    Seems we always have to slip around
    To be together, Dear
    Slipping around
    Afraid we might be found

    I know I can't forget you
    And I've gotta have you near
    But we just have to
    Slip around and live in constant fear

    Oh, you're tied up with someone else
    And I am all tied up, too
    I know I've made mistakes, Dear
    But I'm so in love with you

    I hope some day I'll find a way
    To bring you back to me
    And I won't have to slip around
    To have your company

    Oh, you're tied up with someone else
    And I'm all tied up, too
    I know I've made mistakes, Dear
    But I'm so in love with you

    I hope some day I'll find a way
    To bring you back to me
    And I won't have to slip around
    And I won't have to slip around
    To have your company

    and various other artists



    There's a catchy little tune a floatin' through the air
    You hear it here and there
    They sing it ev'rywhere
    How it started, where it started seems nobody knows
    But what's the diff'rence where it came from
    Here's the way it goes...

    Oh Playmate, come out and play with me
    And bring your dollies three
    Climb up my apple tree
    Look down my rain barrel
    Slide down my cellar door
    And we'll be jolly friends forever more

    She could'nt come out and play
    It was a sunny day
    With tearful eye, she breathed a sigh
    and I could hear her say
    I'm sorry Playmate, I cannot play with you
    My dollies have the flu
    Boo-hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
    Ain't got no rain barrel
    Aint got not cellar door
    But we'll be friends forever more

    Oh Playmate, come out and play with me
    And bring your dollies three
    Climb up my apple tree
    Look down my rain barrel
    Slide down my cellar door
    And we'll be jolly friends forever more

    Playing The Field
    Composer(s): Steve Allen
    Performer(s): Andy Williams;
    and various other artists



    I’m playin’ the field
    Some other guys
    Ought to get wise
    And do like me

    I’m looking around
    Playin’ it cool
    Nobody’s fool
    Feet on the ground

    Oh, I’m playin’ the field
    Walkin’ on air
    I haven’t a care
    The live long day

    I’m feelin’ no pain
    I’m makin’ no slips
    Takin’ no trips
    Down lovers lane

    Oh, I can throw my clothes around
    And come home late at night
    And mess the papers up
    Nobody cares
    Sometimes it gets a little lonesome, true
    But that’s alright
    I never have to dust those empty chairs

    Oh, I’m playin’ the field
    Bachelor man
    Long as I can
    That’s what I’ll be

    My, my future is sealed
    I’m bidin’ my time
    A-sister, and I’m
    Playin’ the field

    My, my, my, my, my future is sealed
    I’m bidin’ my time
    a-sister and I’m
    playin’ the field
    I’m playin’ the field

    The First Day Of Love
    First performance by: Anne-Karine Ström - 1974



    And today is the first day of living
    'Understanding' - the word of the day
    So with faith in the things we believe in
    There will always be help on the way

    We are changing the tide every hour
    We are clearing the sky up above
    And we know that with our newborn power
    Every day is the first day of love

    In our song - the final solution
    We have used the words on the wall
    Awaiting the love revolution
    We all know the curtain will fall

    Can't you feel the silent ovation?
    Don't you know it's only the start?
    In tune with your own generation
    You are finding love in your heart

    And today is the first day of living
    'Understanding' - the word of the day
    So, with faith in the things we believe in
    There will always be help on the way

    We are changing the tide every hour
    We are clearing the sky up above
    And we know that with our newborn power
    Every day is the first day of love

    Even though we're at the beginning
    We are going down the same road
    At last we can say we are winning
    We have help to carry our load

    And today is the first day of living
    'Understanding' - the word of the day
    So, with faith in the things we believe in
    There will always be help on the way

    We are changing the tide every hour
    We are clearing the sky up above
    And we know that with our newborn power
    Every day is the first day of love

    Performer(s): Siouxsie And The Banshees



    Hanging....
    Hanging from your daisy chains
    Swinging in the trees
    Running from your enemies
    And falling on your knees
    On your knees
    Get down on your knees

    Throw the dice
    You three blind mice
    Did you ever see
    Such a thing in your life
    You swallow the trail
    But still arrive
    Inside your entrails

    Hanging....
    Hanging out at party games
    Dancing in the shadows
    Up and down on the see-saw
    Balancing the scales
    You're drunk
    Yet you're balancing the scales

    Someone to blame
    Someone to shame
    Someone who you can claim
    Go back the to pass the parcel
    And follow the leader

    Hanging....
    Hanging from your climbing frames
    Swinging in the gallows
    Laughing with your buddies
    But you can drown when you're shallow
    You can drown....

    Down along the river, where the big bulrushes grow
    you find the old frog jump in the water
    He won't come up no more, babe
    He won't come up no more, baby
    He won't come up no more, woo
    He won't come up no more, sugar mama
    He won't come up no more

    Smell that burnin' fire, baby, burnin' in the sand
    See that devil rise, mama
    He sho' wanna take yo' hand, now
    He sho' wanna take yo' hand, baby
    He sho' wanna take yo' hand, woo
    He sho' wanna take yo' hand, sugar mama
    He sho' wanna take yo' hand

    Oh harvest moon keep shinin' your light down on me
    The lord reach out his hand; my soul floats on out to thee

    I don't feel no pain, when they shot me down
    Lay my body out, baby
    They put me in the ground, so cold
    They put me in the ground, baby
    They put me in the ground, woo
    They put me in the ground, sugar mama
    They put me in the ground

    and various other artists



    When this old world gets me down and there's no love to be found
    I close my eyes and soon I find I'm in a playground in my mind
    Where the children laugh and the children play
    And we sing a song all day

    My name is Michael, I've got a nickel, I've got a nickel shiny and new
    I'm gonna buy me all kinds of candy, that's what I'm gonna do

    In the wonders that I find in the playground in my mind
    In a world that used to be, close your eyes and follow me
    Where the children laugh and the children play
    And we'll sing a song all day

    My girl is Cindy, when we get married we're gonna have a baby or two
    We're gonna let them visit their grandma, that's what we're gonna do

    (tag lines concurrent with background singers singing verses two and four)

    Living in a world that I left behind
    Happy little children
    In the playground in my mind
    See the little children
    See how they play in the playground in my mind

    Canta Y Sé Feliz
    First performance by: Peret - 1974



    Alegría, si quéreis tener
    cantar, alegría de vivir
    para disfrutar, cantar
    canta y sé feliz
    Si la canción que yo canto
    no te llena de alegría
    por más cosas que te diga
    no sirve de ná'
    Si no tienes quien te quiera
    ni a quien decirle te quiero
    buscar amor con dinero
    no sirve de ná'
    Si eres tan inteligente
    que nadie puede entenderte
    enfadarte con la gente
    no sirve de ná'
    Si al sol no puedes tumbarte
    y en paz tomar una copa
    decir que estás en Europa
    no sirve de ná'
    No sirve de ná'
    no sirve de ná'
    no sirve de ná'
    cantar a la vida
    Si quéreis tener
    cantar, alegría de vivir
    para disfrutar, cantar
    canta y sé feliz
    Cantar conmigo para tener
    cantar, alegría de vivir
    para disfrutar, cantar
    canta y sé feliz
    Si para olvidar las penas
    necesitas tomar vino
    no lo hagas buen amigo
    no sirve de ná'
    Si le paras a una rubia
    cuando vas por la autopista
    y luego es un estopista
    no sirve de ná'
    No sirve de ná'
    no sirve de ná'
    no sirve de ná'
    cantar a la vida
    Si quéreis tener
    cantar, alegría de vivir
    para disfrutar, cantar
    canta y sé feliz
    Cantar conmigo para tener
    cantar, alegría de vivir
    para disfrutar, cantar
    canta y sé feliz

    Ay, si queréis tener, cantar
    alegría sí, cantar

    canta y sé feliz
    Cantar conmigo para tener

    canta y sé feliz

    Playful Melody
    Composer(s): Mel Leven



    All of the bells in the town are ringin'
    Say can't you hear all the people singin'
    'Cause of the way the band can play that playful melody
    Oh how your happy feet will wander
    Onto the dancin' floor down yonder
    When they play that playful melody
    Happy as you are
    find a little star
    Place it in the sky above
    Make it big and bright
    and its shiny light
    has to light the night
    For those who fall in love
    You'll see a field full of leaf clover
    Your happiness has to bubble over
    'Cause of the way the band will play that playful melody
    'Cause of the way the band will play that playful melody

    Slippers With Wings
    Composer(s): Willy Dalton; Randall Hylton
    Performer(s): Charlie Waller; James Easter; Sheri Easter



    Susie was three when she first blessed our home
    We loved her as much as a child of our own
    Her little legs were all twisted and frail
    It was never meant for Susie to be well

    In her little bed time prayers she would say
    Lord I know you've been busy today
    But if you get some time please pretty please
    Can I have some slippers with wings

    She'd love to watch the kids in the playground nearby
    They'd call Susie's name she would wave and say hi
    Tiny teardrops would leave the window stained
    It was never meant for Susie to complain

    She would say to her brown puppy dog
    Little Skippy I know it won't be long
    Till I run and play tag like my friends
    God sending me pretty slippers with wings

    Susie turned four and her little legs turned weak
    Pain took it's tole and the colour left her cheeks
    Christmas eve came and we gathered around Susie's bed
    And these are the last words she said

    Mommy, mommy there's a man dressed in white
    Daddy look he is shinny and bright
    And he's holding some ribbons and some string
    Around a pretty pair of slippers with wings

    And if ever I am certain of one certain thing
    Susie's wearing golden slippers with wings

    Long Live Love
    Composer(s): Valerie Avon; Harold Spiro
    First performance by: Olivia Newton-John - 1974



    Long, long live love
    Love is to care
    Caring and sharing
    Long, long live love

    All the kids like ten tin soldiers in a row
    Followed hand in hand
    Sister Anna carrying the banner for the Sally Annie band
    Singing songs of praise and glory
    We all learn to love their story
    Good things are coming to you
    Glory, glory hallelujah

    Long, long live love
    As long as we live
    Living and giving
    Long, long live love

    On a wet day, dry day, great to be alive day
    Brother takes the stand
    Cymbals ringing, everybody singing with the Sally Annie band
    Just a band of happy people
    Teaching, preaching love is equal
    When you feel the spirit move you
    Glory, glory hallelujah

    Long, long live love
    Love is to care
    Caring and sharing
    Long, long live love, love, love, love, love
    Ohhh
    Long, long live love
    As long as we live
    Living forgiving
    Long, long live love

    Playboy
    Composer(s): Gene Thomas
    Performer(s): Gene & Debbe



    Hey boy, to me you're just a playboy
    Never mean a word you say, boy
    I'm so afraid you'll go away and leave me lonely

    Why, girl, do you believe a lie, girl
    Why can't you see that you're my world
    Believe me when I say to you, I love you only

    I never knew that love could hurt me like this
    Till you came along with your kiss

    Then I fell under your spell
    Knowing quite well that you would only hurt me

    Gee, girl, why can't I make you see, girl
    Just what you mean to me, girl
    Then you would know I'd never go away without you

    Oh, boy, I wish that I could know, boy
    If what you say is so, boy
    Then I would never care what they all say about you

    I never knew that love could hurt me like this
    Till you came along with your kiss

    Then I fell knowing quite well
    That someone would tell you I would only hurt you

    Hey, now, does it matter what they say
    Gonna love you anyway now

    If you and I would fight together
    I know we'll find love

    Slip Slidin' Away
    Composer(s): Paul Simon
    First release by: Paul Simon - 1977
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Slip slidin' away
    Slip slidin' away
    You know the nearer your destination
    The more you're slip slidin' away

    I know a man
    He came from my home town
    He wore his passion for his woman
    Like a thorny crown
    He said Delores
    I live in fear
    My love for you's so overpowering
    I'm afraid that I will disappear

    Slip slidin' away
    Slip slidin' away
    You know the nearer your destination
    The more you're slip slidin' away

    I know a woman
    Became a wife
    These are the very words she uses
    To describe her life
    She said a good day
    Ain't got no rain
    She said a bad day's when I lie in bed
    And think of things that might have been

    Slip slidin' away
    Slip slidin' away
    You know the nearer your destination
    The more you're slip slidin' away

    And I know a father
    Who had a son
    He longed to tell him all the reasons
    For the things he'd done
    He came a long way
    Just to explain
    He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
    Then he turned around and headed home again

    Slip slidin' away
    Slip slidin' away
    You know the nearer your destination
    The more you're slip slidin' away

    God only knows
    God makes his plan
    The information's unavailable
    To the mortal man
    We work our jobs
    Collect our pay
    Believe we're gliding down the highway
    When in fact we're slip slidin' away

    Playa Girón
    Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
    Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



    Compañeros poetas
    tomando en cuenta los últimos suceso
    en la poesía, quisiera preguntar
    me urge
    ¿qué tipo de adjetivos se deben usar
    para hacer el poema de un barco
    sin que se haga sentimental, fuera de la vanguardia
    o evidente panfleto
    si debo usar palabras como
    Flota Cubana de Pesca y
    «Playa Girón»?

    Compañeros de música
    tomando en cuenta esas politonales
    y audaces canciones, quisiera preguntar
    me urge
    ¿qué tipo de armonía se debe usar
    para hacer la canción de este barco
    con hombres de poca niñez, hombres y solamente
    hombres sobre cubierta
    hombres negros y rojos y azules
    los hombres que pueblan el «Playa Girón»?

    Compañeros de historia
    tomando en cuenta lo implacable
    que debe ser la verdad, quisiera preguntar
    me urge tanto
    ¿qué debiera decir, qué fronteras debo respetar?
    Si alguien roba comida
    y después da la vida, ¿qué hacer?
    ¿Hasta donde debemos practicar las verdades?
    ¿Hasta donde sabemos?
    Que escriban, pues, la historia, su historia
    los hombres del «Playa Girón»

    Keep Me Warm
    First performance by: Carita Holmström - 1974



    Oh... my friend, stay a little while
    Something's happening to our lives
    By the time it's Summer
    Frightened minds are Winter

    I will free from their icy spell
    Bring you fragrance from nature's well
    I'll soothe away your worries
    Show you how my love is
    Say you'll stay and keep me warm

    I need you - it's simple to say
    I need you, I must be certain
    If you go away, you know there's nothing for me

    Oh... my friend, stay and sit with me
    The nights ahead could be warm and free
    The morning winds - I give you
    I won't disappoint you
    Say you'll stay and keep me warm

    I need you - it's simple to say
    I need you, I must be certain
    If you go away, you know there's nothing for me

    Oh... my friend, when the Summer comes
    We'll be younger, we'll have our fun
    I'll soothe away your worries
    Show you how my love is
    Say you'll stay and keep me warm

    Say you'll stay and keep me warm
    Stay and keep me warm
    Stay and keep me warm

    Play, Fiddle, Play
    Composer(s): Arthur Altman; Jack Lawrence; Emery Deutsch
    Performer(s): Arthur Tracy;
    and various artists



    Now the gypsy band rest their caravan
    Where I hear concealed the song
    Dusky magic falls, gypsy music calls
    Oft to lovers one by one

    A lover strums his fiddle while he hums his little song
    Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm
    Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm

    Play, fiddler play, play my loved one a melody
    Sing to my love while the stars swing above
    Play, fiddle play, sing my loved one a rhapsody
    Play on the strings of her heart

    The campfires are gleaming as red as the sun
    And my heart keeps dreaming, just dreaming of one
    So softly, croon while the moon with our two hearts in harmony
    Play, fiddle play to my love

    Croon while the moon with our two hearts in harmony
    Play, fiddle play to my love
