Stanley Steamer Composer(s): Ralph Blane - Harry Warren Performer(s): Jo Stafford and multiple other artists
Get your veil and get your duster Get the yen for goggles when the wind's a guster Keep your Hubbard gown Firmly belted down When you're out in your Stanley Steamer In a gale we never fluster `Cause we're told we get that old familiar lustre If you're dressed in style Ev'ryone will smile When you're out in your Stanley Steamer Honk, honk! Honk, honk, honk! The donkey used to have his charm But he's looking at us with alarm For it looks like he's back to the farm But if you fail with your combustor Then your speed is gonna need a new adjuster And you must be just Just the one we trust Or we won't step inside No, we won't take the ride That you plan in your Stanley Steamer That you plan in your Stanley Steamer In your Stanley Steamer automobile
Chug, chug, chug, chug Chug, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug That flat tyre was so unexpected There she sat alone and rejected I started to sigh Then I caught the eye Of the man in the Stanley Steamer It began to rain When along the lane Came the man in the Stanley Steamer He was a sight to make me tingle And a dish to make me glad that I was single He proposed a ride So I hopped inside And away we started in the Stanley Steamer It was not that she was stupid Nor the shot she thought she got from Mr. Cupid I just lost my heart From the very start To the man in the Stanley Steamer Honk, honk! Honk, honk, honk! The tandem bike has had its day If you're ridin' one you'll find that they Poke along in an obsolete way With all the bright anticipation Like a child with a wild imagination And we wanna ride, wanna ride inside Of the latest motor deal Wanna sit behind the wheel With the man in the Stanley Steamer With the man in the Stanley Steamer I'm a-nothin' but a dreamer In your Stanley Steamer Stanley Steamer automobile

Vento che torni ogni sera a parlare con me tu mi domandi l'amore, l'amore dov'è
Quando la luna passò solo una voce restò, io mi ricordo che lui mi diceva così
Vieni, vieni, vieni che alla fine della strada c'è l'amore per te
Vieni, vieni, vieni se ti senti innamorata vieni, vieni con me!
Quando la luna tornò l'amore mio non trovò forse quella voce nella notte io non sentirò mai più
Alla fine della strada un albero è caduto e un fiore si spezzò
Strada che hai visto il mio amore morire così dimmi se a un altra ragazza lui disse di sì
Quando la luna passò solo una voce restò io mi ricordo che lui mi diceva così
Vieni, vieni, vieni che alla fine della strada c'è l'amore per te
Vieni, vieni, vieni se ti senti innamorata vieni, vieni con me!
Quando la luna tornò l'amore mio non trovò forse quella voce nella notte io non sentirò mai più
Alla fine della strada dopo quella sera lui non ritornò da me!

Lately when I'm in my room all by myself In the solitary gloom I call to myself
Hey there, you with the stars in your eyes Love never made a fool of you, you used to be too wise Hey there, you on that high-flyin' cloud Though he won't throw a crumb to you, you think some day he'll come to you
Better forget him, him with his nose in the air He has you dancin' on a string, break it and he won't care
Won't you take this advice I hand you like a mother Or are you not seein' things too clear Are you too much in love to hear Is it all goin' in one ear and out the other
Hey there, you with the stars in your eyes (Are you talking to me?) Love never made a fool of you (Not until now) You used to be too wise (Yes, I was once)
Will you take this advice I hand you like a mother Or am I not seein' things too clear Are you just too far gone to hear Is it all goin' in one ear and out the other

Standing Tall Composer(s): Larry Butler - Ben Peters Performer(s): Lorrie Morgan; Billie Jo Spears; Tammy Wynette
Everything I've tried to do for you has always turned out wrong It dook a lot of love inside of me to keep me here this long It's too late to dim the lights again expecting me to call Cause tonight I'm gonna leave you and I'm leavin' standin' tall
If I could see inside your mind I wonder what I'd find There's somethin' there thats made me come os so clost to losin' mine The tallest tree will sometimes bend oh but that won't make it fall I'm packin' it up to leave you and I'm leavin' standin' tall
Now I'm pickin up the pieces of the heart that you've been breakin' And I'm down on my knees just to try and find them all And when I get up one long last look is all that I'll be takin' Cause tonight I'm finally leavin' and I'm leavin' standin' tall Yea tonight I'm gonna leave you and I'm leavin' standin' tall

Hey porter! What time did ya say How much longer will it be till I can See the light of day?

Standing On The Inside Composer(s): Neil Sedaka Performer(s): Neil Sedaka
Standing on the outside looking in You know it's been a long time, don't know where to begin So much I wanna say, so much I wanna do Friends are telling me it's time that you broke through I've been through the hard times of searching souls You know it's been a hard clime from rock'n'roll Now I feel the need in me, so hard to explain Now I've seen the joy in light and I wanna remain
Standing on the inside, I finally broke that line Ring around the circle, don't you know that it feels so fine Every waking moment I just wanna sing the news That I'm standing on the inside, I kicked away them blues
All the phoney faces stand in line All the backslappers know my name's time Now that I've turned the luck, now that I've opened the door I won't be on the outside, no, anymore
Standing on the inside, I finally broke that line Ring around the circle, don't you know that it feels so fine Every waking moment I just wanna sing the news That I'm standing on the inside, I pushed away them blues
Now that I've turned the luck, now that I've opened the door I won't be on the outside, no, anymore
Standing on the inside, I finally broke that line Ring around the circle, don't you know that it feels so fine Every waking moment I just wanna sing the news That I'm standing on the inside, I kicked away them blues
Standing on the inside - standing on the inside I kicked a, kicked a, kicked a, kicked a Standing on the inside - standing on the inside I kicked a, kicked a, kicked a, kicked a ....
La Mirada Interior First performance by: Marian Van De Wal - 2005
Si el que vols és trobar, la bellesa de la vida Ves i busca dins el teu cor Abans de girar-te cap al món Si el que vols és trobar el misteri de la vida Ves i busca dins el teu cor A través de la mirada interior Hi ha molt més del que pots veure Ves i explora dins del teu univers interior Allà veuràs que hi ha una força que és la que fa que tot sigui allà on està Irradia pau Irradia llum Irradia harmonia, sigues tu Si el que vols és trobar, la bellesa de la vida Ves i busca dins el teu cor Abans de girar-te cap al món Si el que vols és trobar el misteri de la vida Ves i busca dins el teu cor A través de la mirada interior Obre de bat a bat Les portes del tresor que s'amaga A dintre del teu cor No ho dubtis Banyat en la quietud De l'aigua clara On trobaràs l'essència d'aquell que vols ser tu Mira l'interior Si el que vols és trobar, la bellesa de la vida Ves i busca dins el teu cor Abans de girar-te cap al món Si el que vols és trobar el misteri de la vida Ves i busca dins el teu cor A través de la mirada interior Obre el teu cor al món, veuràs que tot ho pot la mirada interior
