Suez Composer(s): Will Pancoast - Ferdie Grofé - Peter De Rose Performer(s): Fog City Stompers; The New Leviathan Oriental Foxtrot Orch.
In Old Suez, under mystic sky Near the old Red Sea, where the ships go by There where the palm trees sway Your lips and eyes plead with me to stay In
When far away, with the caravan There I pitch my tent, on the desert sand Then o'er the blazing plain, I wander back love to you again In
Suez, wond'rous Suez Where I was captured with your love sigh All day And thru the night To be with you I cry When you enfold me in your sweet loving arms I feel the thrill of all your charms Dear Suez, wond'rous Suez I lost me heart to you
You Can't Make Love Composer(s): Don Henley; Danny Kortchmar Performer(s): Don Henley
You can make money, you can make good friends You can make mistakes and you can make amends You can make it easy when push comes to shove, but You can't make love
You can make advances, you can make big plans Plant sloppy kisses all over her hands You can tell her everything you're dreamin' of, but You can't make love
Love's a little word that's been kicked around Used too much, beaten down What in the world are you thinkin' of? You can't make love
You can go through the motions with your magic spells Buy all the potions that Fifth Avenue sells You can try to call down all the stars above, but You can't make love
You can buy her diamonds, you can go out in style You can make a promise, you can walk down the aisle You can make a life for her that fits like a glove, but You can't make love
Oh it takes so long You gotta be strong Before it's gone What in the world were you thinkin' of, boy You can't make love
Suerte Loca Composer(s): Agustín Lara Performer(s): Daniel Santos and multiple other artists
Yo tengo una suerte loca qué suerte loca para quererte con un cariño tan grande que no se acaba ni con la muerte ¡Ay! corazón, no le digas que la quieres tanto porque cuando se entrega la vida los amores acaban con llanto
Yo tengo una suerte loca, mira si es suerte saber tus cuitas me las han dicho tus ojos que son de tu alma las ventanitas ¡Ay!, corazón, a un amor no te entregues entero tras las rosas están las espinas y te acecha un puñal traicionero
Los ojos que me embrujaron que me miraron ya no me miran los labios que me arrullaron, que me besaron ya no suspiran ¡Ay! mundo cruel cómo se abre a mis pies el camino esos cambios que tiene la vida son caprichos que tiene el destino
You Can't Judge A Book By The Cover ((French Version: Donne-Moi Une Preuve (Johnny Halliday)) Composer(s): Willie Dixon First release by: Bo Diddley - 1962 Covered by multiple other artists
You can't judge an apple by looking at a tree You can't judge honey by looking at the bee You can't judge a daughter by looking at the mother You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh can't you see Oh you misjudge me I look like a farmer But I'm a lover You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh come on in closer baby Hear what else I gotta say! You got your radio turned down too low Turn it up!
You can't judge sugar by looking at the cane You can't judge a woman by looking at her man You can't judge a sister by looking at her brother You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh can't you see Oh you misjudge me I look like a farmer But I'm a Lover You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
You can't judge a fish by lookin' in the pond You can't judge right from looking at the wrong You can't judge one by looking at the other You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Oh can't you see Oh you misjudge me I look like a farmer But I'm a lover You can't judge a book by looking at the cover
Una vez me entretuve con un sueño lo tomé, lo solté, le dimos vueltas lo aprendí, me lo puse, fui su dueño y pensé que era cosa ya resuelta
Y soñando que un sueño era mi traje comencé la canción, la poesía y aquel sueño aprendió todo el mundo de mí e iba yo sin saber que él sabía, que él sabía
Y así fui, por la tierra, por los mares por los cielos, las noches y los días los amores, los templos y los bares así fui con mi sueño que sabía
Y aquel sueño que yo soñaba puesto comenzó a soñar que él me soñaba y un buen día aprendí todo el mundo de él y ahora somos pareja en la sala e inventamos un vals que bailamos para soñar
Sueño que bailo con mi vals y el sueño bailando que con su hombre bailando va Sueño y soy sueño, soy vals que viene y va que viene y va
You Can't Hurry Love Composer(s): Lamont Dozier; Brian Holland; Eddie Holland Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes; and various other artists
I need love, love To ease my mind I need to find, find someone to call mine But mama said
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait You got to trust, give it time No matter how long it takes
But how many heartaches Must I stand before I find a love To let me live again Right now the only thing That keeps me hangin' on When I feel my strength, yeah It's almost gone I remember mama said
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
How long must I wait How much more can I take Before loneliness will cause my heart Heart to break?
No I can't bear to live my life alone I grow impatient for a love to call my own But when I feel that I, I can't go on These precious words keeps me hangin' on I remember mama said
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said trust, give it time No matter how long it takes
No, love, love, don't come easy But I keep on waiting Anticipating for that soft voice To talk to me at night For some tender arms To hold me tight I keep waiting I keep on waiting But it ain't easy It ain't easy But mama said
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said to trust, give it time No matter how long it takes
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
Sueño Guajiro Composer(s): Agustín Lara Performer(s): Agustín Lara and multiple other artists
Duerme bajo la sombra del platanar sueña con esa noche plenilunar Embriágate con esta luz aroma de carabalí y piensa en un amor que nazca en Veracruz y muera en Yumurí
Soñar mi reina del palmar que dulce bienestar que blanda sensación
Soñar muy cerquita del mar y con su espuma salpicar nuestra canción
Hacer con tu mejor vaivén un canto caibarién que te hable de mi penar Morena linda que inspiró este son guajira que robó mi corazón
Morena linda que inspiró este son guajira que robó mi corazón

La noche me lo ha dicho que tú ya no me quieres y voy por este mundo en busca de otro amor Más no puedo olvidarte tus besos aún me queman y pasan por mi mente recuerdos de tu amor
Y así vaga mi vida soñando en tu regreso y tal vez en tu alma ya existe un nuevo amor Más si el destino quiere ponernos frente a frente te juro por lo nuestro que ya no habrá rencor
Y así vaga mi vida soñando en tu regreso y tal vez en tu alma ya existe un nuevo amor Más si el destino quiere ponernos frente a frente te juro por lo nuestro que ya no habrá rencor
You Can't Get Along With 'Em Or Without 'Em Composer(s): Grant Clarke; Fred Fischer
I think the married men are gettin' a trimmin' And still I hate to knock the beautiful women Oh, gee! what can the trouble be? You read, of course, every day some divorce No matter, where you go you hear of a scandal Why are the women getting harder to handle? Who's to blame, who's to blame? Love is a terrible game
I know a lot of men who never will leave 'em And then a lot of men who never believe 'em Oh, my! how they can tell a lie Look in your eye, and deny and deny They get excited, then you pet 'em and salve 'em Where would we be today if we didn't have 'em? Cold as ice then they're nice Some fellows marry them twice
You can't get along when you're with 'em or without 'em Girls, right or wrong, there is something nice about 'em They're stubborn and contrary, expensive Still, they're very necessary Each little peach has a way that's so endearing Oh, how your dough has a way of disappearing You know the world is saying, "we need 'em" And still the other half is praying for freedom You can't get along when you're with 'em or without 'em You've got to have 'em, that's all!
You can't get along when you're with 'em or without 'em Girls, right or wrong, there is something nice about 'em They're stubborn and contrary, expensive Still, they're very necessary Each little peach has a way that's so endearing Oh, how your dough has a way of disappearing Just when you treat 'em nice, they leave you, they hate you You always take 'em back, it's old Human Nature You can't get along when you're with 'em or without 'em You've got to have 'em, that's all!
You Can't Get A Man With A Gun Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Doris Day; and various other artists
Oh, my mother was frightened by a shotgun, they say Thats why I'm such a wonderful shot I'd be out in the cactus and I'd practice all day And now tell me what have I got? I'm quick on the trigger with targets not much bigger than a pinpoint I'm number one, but my score with a feller Is lower than a celler, oh you can't get a man with a gun When I'm with a pistol, I sparkle like a crystal yes, I shine like the morning sun but I lose all my luster, when with a bronco buster oh you can't get a man with a gun With a gu-un, with a gu-un, oh you can't get a man with a gun If I went to battle with someone's herd of cattle You'd have steak when the job was done But, if I shot the herder, they'd holler bloody murder and you can't shoot a male in the tail like a quail Oh you can't get a man with a gun I'm cool, brave, and daring to see a lion glaring when I'm out with my Remington But a look from a mister will raise a fever blister oh you can't get a man with a gun The gals with umbrellas are always out with fellers in the rain or the blazin sun But a man never trifles with gals who carry rifles oh you can't get a man with a gun With a gu-un, with a gu-un, oh you can't get a man with a gun. A man's love is mighty, he'll even buy a nightie for a gal who he thinks is fun But they don't buy pajamas for pistol packin mamas and you can't get a hug from a mug, with a slug oh you can't get a man with a gun
Sueño De Una Noche De Verano Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Yo soñé con aviones que nublaban el día justo cuando la gente más cantaba y reía más cantaba y reía
Yo soñé con aviones que entre sí se mataban destruyendo la gracia de la clara mañana de la clara mañana
Si pienso que fui hecho para soñar el sol y para decir cosas que despierten amor ¿Cómo es posible entonces que duerma entre saltos de angustia y horror?
En mi sábana blanca vertieron hollín han echado basura en mi verde jardín si capturo al culpable de tanto desastre lo va a lamentar
Anoche tuve un sueño y anoche era verano oh verano terrible para un sueño malvado para un sueño malvado
Anoche tuve un sueño que nadie merecía ¿Cuánto de pesadilla quedará todavía quedará todavía?
Si pienso que fui hecho para soñar el sol y para decir cosas que despierten amor ¿Cómo es posible entonces que duerma entre saltos de angustia y horror?
En mi sábana blanca vertieron hollín han echado basura en mi verde jardín si capturo al culpable de tanto desastre lo va a lamentar
Yo soñé un agujero bajo tierra y con gente que se estremecía al compás de la muerte al compás de la muerte
Yo soñé un agujero bajo tierra y oscuro y espero que mi sueño no sea mi futuro no sea mi futuro
Si pienso que fui hecho para soñar el sol y para decir cosas que despierten amor ¿Cómo es posible entonces que duerma entre saltos de angustia y horror?
En mi sábana blanca vertieron hollín han echado basura en mi verde jardín si capturo al culpable de tanto desastre lo va a lamentar Yo soñé con aviones que nublaban el día justo cuando la gente más cantaba y reía más cantaba y reía

You Can't Catch Me Composer(s): Chuck Berry Performer(s): Chuck Berry; and various other artists
I bought a brand new airmobile It was custom made 'Twas a Flight DeVille With a powerful motor And some hide-away wings Push in on the button and you will hear her sing Now you can't catch me Baby, you can't catch me 'Cause if you get too close You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
New Jersey Turnpike in the wee wee hours I was rolling slowly 'cause of drizzlin' showers Here come up flat top he was movin' up with me Then come wavin' goodbye In a little old suped up jitny I put my foot in my tank and I began to roll Moanin' sirens, 'twas the state po'trol So I let out my wings and then I blew my horn Bye-bye New Jersey I become airborne
Now you can't catch me Baby you can't catch me 'Cause if you get too close You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
Flyin' with my baby last Saturday night Wasn't a gray cloud floatin' in sight Big full moon shinin' up above Cuddle up honey be my love Sweetest little thing I ever seen I'm gon' name you Maybellene Flyin' on the beam set on flight control Radio tuned to rock 'n' roll Two, three hours are passed us by Altitude dropped to 505 Fuel consumption way too fast Let's get on home before we run out of gas

Sueño Con Serpientes Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez and multiple other artists
Sueño con serpientes, con serpientes de mar con cierto mar, ay, de serpientes sueño yo Largas, transparentes, y en sus barrigas llevan lo que puedan arrebatarle al amor
Oh, la mato y aparece una mayor Oh, con mucho más infierno en digestión
No quepo en su boca, me trata de tragar pero se atora con un trébol de mi sien Creo que está loca; le doy de masticar una paloma y la enveneno de mi bien
Oh, la mato y aparece una mayor Oh, con mucho más infierno en digestión
Ésta al fin me engulle, y mientras por su esófago paseo, voy pensando en qué vendrá Pero se destruye cuando llego a su estómago y planteo con un verso una verdad
Oh, la mato y aparece una mayor Oh, con mucho más infierno en digestión

You can't be true, dear There's nothing more to say I trusted you, dear Hoping we'd find a way Your kisses tell me That you and I are through But I'll keep loving you Although you can't be true

You can't be true, dear There's nothing more to say I trusted you, dear Hoping we'd find a way Your kisses tell me That you and I are through But I'll keep loving you Although you can't be true
