La Vie À 25 Ans
Composer(s): Christine Fontane
First performance by: Dani - 1974



Comme disait le vieux Sébastien
"Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien"
La vie c'est du cinéma
Qu'on ne regarde qu'une fois
Pourquoi bouder son désir
Quand y'a de la gêne, y'a pas de plaisir
Moi je dis tout simplement
C'est beau la vie à vingt cinq ans

Y'a pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien
La la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la

Toi, tu coupes, tu tailles, tu tranches
Ta vie n'est pas un dimanche
Tu réfléchis, tu t'inquiètes
Tu calcules et tu perds la tête
Pourquoi chercher à comprendre
Prends ce qui se laisse prendre
À toujours forcer ton coeur
Tu passes à côté du meilleur

Y'a pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien
La la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la

Quand j'aime, je le crie bien haut
Et j'en profite autant qu'il faut
Moi je vis tout simplement
C'est bien la vie à vingt cinq ans

Y'a pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien.
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien
La la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la

Pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien

(There's No) Gettin' Over Me
Composer(s): Walt Aldridge; Tom Brasfield
Performer(s): Ronnie Milsap; Big Mountain


Well you can walk out on me tonight
If you think that it ain't feelin' right
But darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me

Well you can say that you need to be free
But there ain't no place that I won't be
Sweet darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me

I'll be the bill you forgot to pay
I'll be the dream that keeps you awake
I'll be the song on the radio
I'll be the reason that you tell the boys no
Don't you know

You can tell everyone that we're through
You might even believe it too
But darlin'
There's ain't no gettin' over me
Sweet darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me

I'll be the face that you see in a crowd
I'll be the times that you cry out loud
I'll be the smile when there's no one around
I'll be the book that you just can't put down

So you can walk out on me tonight
If you think that it ain't feelin' right
But darlin'
There ain't no getting over me

You'll see
Sweet, darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
No, no, no, no, no Darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
Ooooh, mmmm
No, darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
Ooooh, darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me

Slow Down Sweet Mama
Composer(s): Leon Chappel
Performer(s): Leon Chappel



Slow down sweet mama
Now, can't you see you're killin' me
Lord, I'm tired of your two-timin'
And the way you're doggin' me
I'm sick and tired of talkin'
Tryin' to get you to slow down

She come home this mornin'
The sun was shinin' bright as day
Out all night, sweet mama
With your low down triflin' way
I'm fed up and disgusted
You can't be trusted, night or day

So, slow down sweet mama
You're way ahead of me a mile
Lord, I can't keep up sweet mama
With your speedy streamline style
I'm sick and tired of talkin'
Tryin' to get that gal to slow down

Yes, yes, yes
Why don't you slow down, honey
Take your time, take your time

Go slow sweet mama
Why don't you try to please behave
She's sure mean mistreatin'
Your Poppa's hair is turnin' gray
Lord, I'm sick and tired of pleadin'
Tryin' to get my gal to slow down

I've tried sweet mama
To make you love me and do right
But it just ain't in you, mama
You're honky-tonkin' every night
I'm sick and tired of talkin'
Tryin' to get that gal to slow down

Now, so long sweet mama
You know you done your Poppa wrong
If you don't believe I'm leavin'
Mama, count the days I'm gone
'Cause I'm sick and tired of pleading
Tryin' to get that gal to slow down

(There's A) Goldmine In The Sky
Composer(s): Charles F. Kenny - Nick A. Kenny
Performer(s): Gene Autry
and multiple other artists



There's a goldmine in the sky far away
We will find it, you and I, some sweet day
There'll be clover just for you down the line
Where the skies are always blue, pal of mine
Take your time, old mule, I know you're growing lame
But you'll pasture in the stars when we strike that claim
And we'll sit up there and watch the world roll by (the world roll by)
When we find that long lost goldmine in the sky (in the sky)
Mmm-mmm-mmm (far away, far away), mmm-mmm-mmm (far away, far away)
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmmmmm
And we'll say hello to friends who said goodbye (who said goodbye)
When we find that long lost goldmine in the sky (far away in the sky)

give me little loving 
Ow, if you want our love to last

(There's A) Bluebird On Your Windowsill
Composer(s): Elizabeth Clarke
Performer(s): Tex Williams; Doris Day;
Audrey Williams;
Wilf "Montana Slim" Carter


(There's a bluebird)

There's a bluebird

(There's a rainbow)

There's a bluebird on your windowsill
There's a rainbow in your sky
There are happy thoughts, your heart to fill
Near enough to make you cry

(There's a bluebird)

There he is

(There's a rainbow)

And with every tear you've washed away
All the things you've kept inside
You count your joys this lovely day
And you wonder why you cried

There's a bluebird on your windowsill
There's a rainbow in your sky
There are happy thoughts, your heart to fill
Near enough to make you cry

(There's a bluebird)

Look at him out there, ain't he pretty

(There's a rainbow)

And if perchance your heart grow sad
You still can smile again
And with every tear you've ever had
Comes the sunshine after rain

[Orchestral Break]

There's a bluebird

(Yes, yes)

There's a rainbow

(Hear, hear)

[Orchestral Break]

The rainy days may come and go
But the clouds soon roll away
Everything will come that you wish it so
As an answer when you pray

There's a bluebird on your windowsill
There's a rainbow in your sky
There're happy thoughts, your heart to fill
Near enough to make you cry

(There's a bluebird)

Cutest feathers

(There's a rainbow)

Lovely weather

(There's a bluebird)

Look at that bluebird and the rainbow in the sky

Slow Dancing
Composer(s): Jack Tempchin
Performer(s): Johnny Rivers
and multiple other artists



It's late at night and we're all alone, with just the music of the radio
No one's coming, no one's gonna telephone
Just me and you and the lights down low - and we're

Slow dancing, swaying to the music, slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, no one else in the whole wide world
Just you, girl

And we just flow together when the lights are low
And shadows dancing across the wall
The music's playing so soft and low
And the rest of the world so far away and small

Slow dancing, swaying to the music, slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, no one else in the whole wide world
Just you, girl

Hold me, please hold me, don't ever let me go

And as we dance together in the dark
There's so much love in this heart of mine
She whispers to me and I hold her tight
You're the one I thought I'd never find

Slow dancing, swaying to the music, slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, no one else in the whole wide world
Just you, girl

(There's A Little Lane Without A Turning) On The Way To Home Sweet Home
Composer(s): Sam M. Lewis; George W. Meyer


I wonder if they miss me nowadays 
I wonder if they would forgive my ways 
I'd love to kiss somebody I adore 
I'd give a lot to see them all once more
I haven't treated them just as I should 
I'd go home tomorrow if I could

When every friend you've had has turned you down
When every smile has turned into a frown
When every finger points at you in shame 
Somebody home says you are not to blame 
I sometimes hear somebody teaching me 
My first lesson in geography

There's a little lane without a turning 
On the way to home sweet home 
There's a little mother always yearning
For the ones that long to roam 
There's a road that leads to strangers 
That's where friendship parts
Another leads to dangers
And it's paved with broken hearts 
Take the little lane without a turning
On the way to home sweet home

E Depois Do Adeus
Composer(s): José Calvário - José Niza
First performance by: Paulo de Carvalho - 1974



Quis saber quem sou
O que faço aqui
Quem me abandonou
De quem me esqueci
Perguntei por mim
Quis saber de nós
Mas o mar
Não me traz
Tua voz

Em silêncio, amor
Em tristeza e fim
Eu te sinto, em flor
Eu te sofro, em mim
Eu te lembro, assim
Partir é morrer
Como amar
É ganhar
E perder

Tu vieste em flor
Eu te desfolhei
Tu te deste em amor
Eu nada te dei
Em teu corpo, amor
Eu adormeci
Morri nele
E ao morrer
Renasci

E depois do amor
E depois de nós
O dizer adeus
O ficarmos sós
Teu lugar a mais
Tua ausência em mim
Tua paz
Que perdi
Minha dor que aprendi
De novo vieste em flor
Te desfolhei...

E depois do amor
E depois de nós
O adeus
O ficarmos sós

(There'll Be Bluebirds Over) The White Cliffs Of Dover
Composer(s): Nat Burton; Walter Kent)
Performer(s): Glenn Miller & His Orch.;
and various other artists


There'll be bluebirds over
The white cliffs of Dover
Tomorrow, just you wait and see

There'll be love and laughter
And peace ever after
Tomorrow, when the world is free

The shepherd will tend his sheep
The valley will bloom again
And Jimmy will go to sleep
In his own little room again

There'll be bluebirds over
The white cliffs of Dover
Tomorrow, just you wait and see

The shepherd will tend his sheep
The valley will bloom again
And Jimmy will go to sleep
In his own little room again

There'll be bluebirds over
The white cliffs of Dover
Tomorrow, just you wait and see

Slow Dancer
Composer(s): George Daly; Boz Scaggs
Performer(s): Boz Scaggs; Rita Coolidge



I have never loved a lady
Never touched your silken knee
Macon baby, you drove me crazy
You were so easy to me
 
Lay me down in Georgia pine fields
Whisper to me through the trees
You're the one I always dream of
You're the only one I see
 
Slow dancer, sweet romancer
Shine your light on me
Slow dancer, holds the answer
Only you can set me free
 
Never see your face in sunlight
Moonlight sends you straight to me
You never even got my name right
You were so easy to me
 
Slow dancer, sweet romancer
Shine your light on me
Slow dancer, give me the answer
Only you can set me free

(There Was A) Tall Oak Tree
Composer(s): Dorsey Burnette
Performer(s): Dorsey Burnette; Gene McDaniels


There was a tall oak tree
That loved a babblin' brook
And the babblin' brook
Loved the mountain high
And the mountain high
Loved the sky above
The Creator looked down
And saw everything was love, love, love

Now, he took a bone
And a piece of mud
He made a man and a woman
To be flesh and blood
 
And then along came the devil
Up out of the ground 
He tempted the woman
And that spread sin all ‘round, all ‘round, all ‘round

Now, if she’d left that apple
On that apple tree
There’d be no tears or sorrow
We’d live eternally

And then along came Man
And chopped the oak tree down
And now the babblin' brook
Is solid ground
And now the mountain high
Don’t stand so high
And there’s a cloud of smoke
That covers up the clear blue sky

There was a tall oak tree
There was a tall oak tree
There was a tall oak tree

Mein Ruf Nach Dir
First performance by: Piera Martell - 1974



Sehnsucht nach der Vergangenheit
Und die Erinnerung an unser Glück
Treiben ein wildes Spiel mit mir
Und jeden Augenblick der Zeit
Ich hole ihn aus der Vergessenheit zurück

Mein Ruf nach Dir
Das wird ein Schrei der Liebe sein
Das Lied der Sehnsucht
Singt dazu der Wind

Mein Ruf nach Dir
Soll wie ein Strahl der Sonne sein
Der unsre Liebe
Neu zum Blühen bringt

Fragen, ob sich mein Leben lohnt
Wenn es so weiter geht, ganz ohne dich
Tage, die nichts als Träume sind
Mein Leben ist ein leerer Raum
Die Wirklichkeit ist nur ein Schattenbild für mich

Mein Ruf nach Dir
Das wird ein Schrei der Liebe sein
Das Lied der Sehnsucht
Singt dazu der Wind

Mein Ruf nach Dir
Soll wie ein Strahl der Sonne sein
Der unsre Liebe
Neu zum Blühen bringt

Mein Ruf nach Dir
Das wird ein Schrei der Liebe sein
Das Lied der Sehnsucht
Singt dazu der Wind

Mein Ruf nach Dir
Soll wie ein Strahl der Sonne sein
Der unsre Liebe
Neu zum Blühen bringt

Der unsre Liebe
Neu zum Blühen bringt

(There Ought To Be A) Moonlight Saving Time
Composer(s): Irving Kahal; Harry Richman
Performer(s): Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians;
and various other artists


Birdies fly with new ambition
Spring is in their song
Soon you'll find yourself a-wishin'
Days were not so long
If my thought is not defined
Listen while I speak my mind

There ought to be a moonlight saving time
So I could love that boy of mine
Until the birdies wake and chime
Good morning!

There ought to be a law in clover time
To keep that moon on overtime
To keep each lover's lane in rhyme, till dawning
You'd better hurry up, hurry up
Hurry up, get busy today
You'd better croon a tune, croon a tune
To the man up in the moon
And here is what I say

There ought to be a moonlight saving time
So I could love that boy of mine
Until the birdies wake and chime
Good morning!

In January the nights are very long
But that's all right
In happy June, comes the honeymoon time
Days are longer than the night
In love time's season, the moon's the reason
For every cuddle and kiss
When the days are longer, the nights are shorter
Something should be done about this

There ought to be a moonlight saving time
To make the morning glories climb
An hour later on the vine
Each morning!

You sort of need a moon to bill and coo
An old back porch, a birch canoe
A parlor lamp in June won't do
I'm warning, I've heard the farmer say
I'll make hay while the sun is shining above
But when the day is done, night begun
You can ask the farmer's son
It's time to make love

There ought to be a moonlight saving time
So I could love that boy of mine
Until the birdies wake and chime
Good morning!

That's all!

Slow And Easy
Composer(s): Harry Williams; Norman Spencer



Oh! honey dear my honey dear, I hear those doggone "blues" 
and honey dear, Oh! listen here, I feel those doggone shoes
Though they're new and killing me too, hear that "blue" and what can you do? 
Oh! boy, Oh! joy; let's toddle it through: but take it

Oh! honey dear, my honey dear, I fear I'll have to stop 
and honey dear, Oh! listen here, I feel my feet will "pop" 
When they choose to put on the blues, two new shoes mean terrible news
Oh! boy, no joy; I've got to refuse: so walk it

Slow and easy, if you want to get along with me
I said slow and easy, be easy as a man can be
I'm a lady, pure and sweet, but "shimmee" up a little while I rest my feet
Go slow and easy, if you want to get along with me
Just take it

Slow and easy, if you want to get along with me
I said slow and easy, be easy as a man can be
Sit me down here in the shade, I'd like a little beer (I mean a lemonade) 
Go slow and easy, if you want to get along with me
So walk it

(That's What You Get) For Lovin' Me
Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot
Performer(s): Peter, Paul, & Mary;
Waylon Jennings; Elvis Presley


That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything we had is gone, you can see
That's what you get for lovin' me

Now don't you shed a tear for me
I ain't the love you thought I'd be
I've had a hundred just like you
But don't be blue, I'll have a thousand before I'm through

That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything we had is gone, you can see
That's what you get for lovin' me

Now there you go, you're cryin' again
You should have known how things would end
But then some day when your poor heart is on the mend
I just might pass this way again

That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything we had is gone, you can see
That's what you get for lovin' me

That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything we had is gone, you can see
That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get ...... Fade

Die Sommermelodie
First performance by: Cindy & Bert - 1974



Ich hab' dir heut' geschrieben, es ist vorbei
Doch du bist da, und das find' ich schön
Ich soll dich nicht mehr lieben
Du bist nicht frei und ich muß geh'n, ich muß geh'n

Ich hab' dir angesehen, was du verschweigst
Denn auch dein Herz, das hat sich verirrt
Und keiner weiß, was nun wird

Die Sommermelodie, die ist nur Träumerei
Wir beide sind verliebt
Und das darf doch nicht sein für uns zwei
Die Sommermelodie, die sagt du bist nicht frei
Und diese Zeit der Rosen geht einmal vorbei

Wir sehen oft uns wieder, und unser Traum
Der ist so schön, doch leider nicht wahr
Und dieses Lied der Liebe
Klingt durch den Raum, wir sind ein Paar, mmm...

Die Sommermelodie, die ist nur Träumerei
Wir beide sind verliebt
Und das darf doch nicht sein für uns zwei
Die Sommermelodie, die sagt du bist nicht frei
Und diese Zeit der Rosen geht einmal vorbei

(Die Sommermelodie) Die Sommermelodie
(Die ist nur Träumerei) Die ist nur Träumerei
Und diese Zeit der Rosen geht einmal vorbei

(That's How I Learnt To Love) Good Old Country Music
Composer(s): Joe Babcock
Performer(s): Porter Wagoner


I remember Daddy playing the Wildwood Flower
When we'd gather round the parlour of our home
Uncle Wesley played the fiddle
and John R played the banjo
We'd pick and sing sometimes all night long
Mama played the upright piano
And I guess it must've been a thing to hear
All the neighbors gathered round they loved that country sound
And it was surely music to our ears

And that's how I learnt to love good old country music
There's somethin' about it close to my soul
I'm so glad everyone is lovin' good old country music
It's the music of the country and this country is my home

(Guitar Break)

Many nights I went to bed without sleepin'
Just a listenin' to our beatup radio
I held the groundwire tight
Just to get a strain or two of a far-off song from Del Rio
Oh it faded in and out through the stand
But it made me dream of seeing Tennessee
And the greatest thrill of all was to see those hallowed halls
The Mother Church, the Grand Ole Opry

And that's how I learnt to love good old country music
There's somethin' about it close to my soul
I'm so glad everyone is lovin' good old country music
It's the music of the country and this country is my home

(Banjo Break)

And that's how I learnt to love good old country music
There's somethin' about it close to my soul
I'm so glad everyone is lovin' good old country music
It's the music of the country and this country is my home

Just a roll, just a roll
Just a roll on your drum
Just a roll, just a roll
And the war has begun

Now the right thing's the wrong thing
No more excuses to come
Just one step at a time
And the war has begun

Just a roll, just a roll
Just a roll on your drum
Just a roll, just a roll
And the war has begun

She's run away, she's run away
And she ran so bitterly
Now call to your colours, friend
Don't you call to me

Just a roll, just a roll
Just a roll on your drum
Just a roll, just a roll
And the war has begun

Don't you cry, don't you cry
Don't you cry upon the sea
Don't you cry, don't you cry
For your lady and me

Just a roll, just a roll
Just a roll on your drum
Just a roll, just a roll
And the war has begun

Just a roll, just a roll
Just a roll on your drum
Just a roll, just a roll
And the war has begun
