Sweet Jane
Composer(s): Lou Reed 
First release by: The Velvet Underground - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists



Anyone who ever had a heart
Wouldn't turn around and break it
And anyone who's ever played a part
Wouldn't turn around and hate it

Sweet Jane, sweet Jane, oh, sweet, sweet Jane

Waiting for Jimmy down by the alley
Waiting there for him to came home
Waiting down there on the corner
Thinking ways to get back home

Sweet Jane, sweet Jane, oh, sweet, sweet Jane

Anyone who's ever had a dream
Anyone who's ever played a part
Anyone who's gonna live lonely
Anyone who's ever stood apart

Sweet Jane, sweet Jane, oh, sweet, sweet Jane

Heavenly wine and roses
Seem to whisper to me, when you smile

nananana...

Sweet Jane, sweet Jane, oh, sweet, sweet Jane 

You Wanted Someone To Play With
Composer(s): Frank Capano;
Margie Morris; Nat Osborne; George McConnell
Performer(s): Frankie Laine



I know that you wanted someone to play with
While I wanted someone to love
And you made me feel that your love was real
The love that I always dreamed of

And then you laughed when I cried for your kisses
To me they meant heaven above
Oh, oh, oh you wanted someone to play with
While I wanted someone to love

(Oh, you wanted someone to play)
(While I wanted someone to love)
And you made me feel that your love was real
The love that I always dreamed of

And then you laughed when I cried for your kisses
To me they meant heaven above
Oh, oh, oh you wanted someone to play with
While I wanted, while I wanted someone to love

Colorado Christmas
Composer(s): Steve Goodman
Performer(s): The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band; Steve Goodman; Petty Booka



Looking out the window of this Hollywood hotel
You'd never know that it was Christmas Eve
The billboards and the neon took the place of silver bells
And the temperature is 84 degrees

I can hear the traffic on the crowded strip below
As the palm trees poke their heads above the scene
But there's not a single reindeer and it hardly ever snows
And Santa drives a Rolls Royce limosine

But all along the Rockies you can feel it in the air
From Telluride to Boulder down below
The closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere
Is a quiet Christmas morning in the Colorado snow

I remember Christmases when I was just a boy
In the morning I would run to see the tree
And the carolers on the hillside sang their songs of Christmas joy
Well, I always thought they sang them just for me

Now the sun is setting in the California sky
And I can't find the spirit anywhere
So I think it's time for me to tell Los Angeles goodbye
I'm going back home to look for Christmas there

But all along the Rockies you can feel it in the air
From Telluride to Boulder down below
The closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere
Is a quiet Christmas morning in the Colorado snow

Early in the mornin', late in the evening
Just about around midnight

What's my name baby, 'cause you gotta say my name baby
Just a little bit louder now
Just a little bit softer now, nice and easy

Sweet Jamaica
Composer(s): Cat Stevens
Performer(s): Cat Stevens; Tippa Lee



Other people come and go
They try to make it through
I have to smile and tell them no
'Cause I only care for you
I only care for you
Yes, you are my sweet, sweet Jamaica
Country mama, brown country girl
When you touch me I, I feel so tall
If you let me down, boy I'd be so small
Yes, you are my sweet Jamaica
Country mama, brown country girl

Everybody needs a friend
To brighten up their world
I know you'll never let me down
'Cause you're not that kind of girl, no no no

I want to see you 'round every turn
You're my world far as I'm concerned
Got no time to runabout
Just want to spend my life out with you, only you
Yes, you are my sweet, sweet Jamaica
Country mama, brown country girl
Oh, yes you are
Sweet Jamaica, oh brown country girl, ooh

You Turned The Tables On Me
Composer(s): Sidney D. Mitchell; Louis Alter
Performer(s): Benny Goodman;
and various other artists



I used to be the apple of your eye
I had you with me every day
But now whenever you are passing by
You're always looking the other way
It's little things like this
That prompt me to say

You turned the tables on me
And now I'm falling for you
You turned the tables on me
I can't believe that it's true
I always thought when you brought
The lovely presents you bought
Why hadn't you brought me more
But now if you'd come
I'd welcome anything from
The five and ten cent store

You used to call me the top
You put me up on a throne
You let me fall with a drop
And now I'm out on my own
But after thinking it over and over
I got what was coming to me
Just like the sting of a bee
You turned the tables on me

Big wheels keep on turning
Carry me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the Southland
I miss ol' Bamy once again
And I think its a sin, yeah

Well I heard Mr. Young sing about us
Well, I heard ol' Neil put us down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don't need him around anyhow

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet Home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you

In Birmingham they shot the governor
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet Home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Here I come Alabama

Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they've been known to pick a song or two
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue
Now how about you?

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet Home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you

Sweet home Alabama
Oh sweet home baby
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet Home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you

Here I come… 

You Turn Me On, I'm A Radio
Composer(s): Joni Mitchell
Performer(s): Joni Mitchell



If you're driving into town with a dark cloud above you
Dial in the number who's bound to love you
Oh, honey, you turn me on, I'm a radio
I'm a country station, I'm a little bit corny
I'm a wild wood flower waving for you
Broadcasting tower, waving for you
And I'm sending you out this signal here
I hope you can pick it loud and clear
I know you don't like weak women, you get bored so quick
And you don't like strong women 'cause they're hip to your tricks
It's been dirty for dirty down the line
But you know I come when you whistle, when you're loving and kind

But if you've got too many doubts
If there's no good reception for me then tune me out
Cause honey who needs the static?
It hurts the head and you wind up cracking
And the day goes dismal from "Breakfast Barney" to the sign off prayer
What a sorry face you get to wear
I'm gonna tell you again now if you're still listening there:

If you're driving into town with a dark cloud above you
Dail in the number who's bound to love you
If you're lying on the beach with the transistor going
Kick off the sandflies honey, the love's still flowing
if you head says forget it but your heart's still smoking
Call me at the station, the lines are open

Sweet Home 
Composer(s): Cropper
Performer(s): Sam & Dave



You needed help and I took you in 
Because I was nice enough to be your friend 
But now I know from the start when you walked in 
You laid the cornerstone for a home in my heart 

You built a home in my heart 
I'll keep you here until we part 
You gave my life a brand new start 
When you built your home in my heart 

You knocked on my door and I let you in 
Now I know we're more than friends 
I'll keep you here night and day 
Your home in my heart is here to stay 

Sweet sweet sweet home 
Sweet sweet sweet home
Sweet sweet sweet home
Never again will I be alone 

A home that's filled with nothin' but sunshine 
A home that's filled with nothin' but care 
Sweet sweet sweet home 
One that both of us can share 

Sweet sweet sweet home 
Sweet sweet sweet home
Sweet sweet sweet home
I'm talkin' about a sweet home the night you came ...

Sweet Hitch-Hiker 
Composer(s): John C. Fogerty
Performer(s): Creedence Clearwater Revival



Was Ridin' along side the highway, rollin' up the country side
Thinkin' I'm the devil's heatwave, what you burn in your crazy mind?
Saw a slight distraction standin' by the road
She was smilin' there, yellow in her hair
Do you wanna, I was thinkin', would you care

Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?

Cruisin' on thru the junction, I'm flyin' 'bout the speed of sound
Noticin' peculiar function, I ain't no roller coaster show me down
I turned away to see her, Woa! she caught my eye
But I was rollin' down, movin' too fast
Do you wanna, She was thinkin' can it last

Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?

Was busted up along the highway, I'm the saddest ridin' fool alive
Wond'ring if you're goin' in my way, won't you give a poor boy a ride?
Here she comes a ridin', Lord, She's flyin' high
But she was rollin' down, movin' too fast
Do you wanna, She was thinkin' can I last

Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?

Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?

Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?

You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth
(Hot Summer Night)
Composer(s): Jim Steinman
Performer(s): Meat Loaf



Boy: On a hot summer night
would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
Girl: Will he offer me his mouth?
Boy: Yes
Girl: Will he offer me his teeth?
Boy: Yes
Girl: Will he offer me his jaws?
Boy: Yes
Girl: Will he offer me his hunger?
Boy: Yes
Girl: Again, will he offer me his hunger?
Boy: Yes!
Girl: And will he starve without me?
Boy: Yes!
Girl: And does he love me?
Boy: Yes
Girl: Yes
Boy: On a hot summer night would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
Girl: Yes
Boy: I bet you to say that to all the boys

It was a hot summer night and the beach was burning
There was fog crawling over the sand
When I listened to your heart I hear the whole world turning
I see the shooting stars
Falling through your trembling hands

You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste

When you hold me so close that my knees grow weak
And my soul is flying high above the ground
I'm trying to speak but no matter what I do
I just can't seem to make any sound

And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you

And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you

Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water
And I guess that I'm beginning to grin
Oooh, we're finally alone and we can do what we want to
The night is young
And ain't no one gonna know where you
No one gonna know where you
No one's gonna know where you've been

You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste

And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me

Sweet Heaven (I'm In Love Again)

Performer(s): Barry Manilow; Ivo Franklin



Sweet heaven I'm in love again 
Sweet heaven I'm in love again
You came along now what can I do
I only want to be with you

Sweet heaven here I go again
I'm hooked from head to toe again
One minute I'm so lonely and then
Oh sweet heaven

Hey babe
Now that I've found you life's a song
Say babe
Where were you hiding I've been waiting so long

Sweet heaven I'm in love again
So totally in love again
I'll shout it everywhere I go
I'll sing it on the radio
I want the whole world to know
Sweet heaven I'm in love again

You Took The Words Right Out Of My Heart
Composer(s): Ralph Rainger; Leo Robin
Performer(s): Dorothy Lamour;
Benny Goodman; Henry Hall; Thelonious Monk; 
Paul Motian Trio; Martha Tilton



Here in the moonlight I found my sunlight
Shining within your eyes
Now if you see me confused and dreamy
Blame it on this surprise

You took the words right out of my heart
And it was like a bolt from the blue
You took the words right out of my heart
When you said “I love you”

When you said “I love You”
I stood in a daze awhile
For I felt that way too
From the moment I saw you smile

I had the words and you in my heart
There wasn’t room enough for the two
You took the words right out of my heart
And there’s only room for you

Christmas Wishes
Composer(s): Art Podell - Randy Sparks
Performer(s): New Christy Minstrels; Anne Murray



If I had my way this Christmas
If all I could wish would be
Of all the great wishes in a wonderful world
I'd only ask for three

And if I could have three wishes
And if the first wish came true
There'd be Peace on Earth, goodwill among all
And love in all that we do

Can you imagine a world like that?
What a wonderful world it would be
And then I would wish it would go on forever
For people like you and me

If I had my way this Christmas
And if all the others came true
My third wish would be, for now and forever

To share all my wishes with you

You Took My Breath Away
Composer(s): The Traveling Wilburys
Performer(s): The Traveling Wilburys



You took my breath away
Now I want it back again
Look at the mess I'm in
I don't know what to say
I don't know how to feel
You don't care anyway
All I can do is write 
You took my breath away
You took this song of mine,
And changed the little bit
It used to sound alright
But now the words don't fit
It's getting hard to rhyme
Impossible to play
I've tried it many times
You took my breath away

One day when the sun is shining
There will be that silver lining

You knocked my headlights out
So turn them on again
I can't see where I'm going
I can't tell where I've been
I don't know how to feel
This hasn't been my day
Seems like I've lost a wheel
You took my breath away

You took my breath away
You took my breath away
You took my breath away

Sweet Happy Life

My wish for you
Sweet happy life
May all the days of 
The year that you live
Be laughing days
With all my heart
Sweet happy life

Moons for your hair
And someone's wonderful love
For your loving arms to share

My wish for you
Sweet happy life
May all your sorrows be gone
And your heart begin to sing
And if a wish can make it be
I wish you'd spend every day
Of your happy life with me

Stars for your smile
Moons for your hair
And someone's wonderful love
For your loving arms to share

My wish for you
Sweet happy life
May all your sorrows be gone
And your heart begin to sing
And if a wish can make it be
I wish you'd spend every day
Of your happy life with me

Sweet happy life
Sweet happy life

You Took Advantage Of Me
Composer(s): Lorenz Hart; Richard Rodgers
Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald;
and various other artists



I'm a sentimental sap, that's all
What's the use of trying not to fall?
I have no will, you've made your kill
'Cause you took advantage of me!

I'm just like an apple on a bough
And you're gonna shake me down somehow
So, what's the use,
you've cooked my goose
'Cause you took advantage of me!

I'm so hot and bothered that I don't
know my elbow from my ear
I suffer something awful each time you go
And much worse when you're near

Here I am with all my bridges burned
Just a babe in arms where
you're concerned
So lock the doors and call me yours
'Cause you took advantage of me
