    A Guy Named Joe
    Composer(s): Harlan Howard
    Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



    I stepped ashore in Tokyo feeling kind a blue
    For I was trying to forget a love that was untrue
    When by my side I found a lad, his dark eyes all aglow
    He looked at me so hopefully and said is you’re name, Joe?

    For Joe’s my Daddy’s name and he will soon be sailing cross the sea
    He said will come back bye and bye and Joe would never lie
    The warship took my dad away and mommy needs him so
    And every night I hear her pray “Dear God, where is my Joe?”

    Somewhere back home a guy named Joe is probably sipping beer
    Does he know how important he could be if he was here?
    Has he forgotten this little lad who needs his daddy so?
    A promise made, a debt unpaid, their waiting for you Joe

    Yes, Joe’s his daddy’s name and he will never sail across that sea
    A stranger in a foreign land he let his heart get out of hand
    The warship took his dad away and he’s too young to know
    That off across the ocean there’s a million guys’s named Joe

    You're Not The Only One
    Composer(s): Bob Marlette; John Wetton
    Performer(s): John Wetton



    I see you now in the dead of night
    The shadows closing in
    You lie and wait for the morning light
    You'll just survive till then
    Loneliness only means you harm
    So try to raise a smile
    Don't you know that your open arms
    Can bridge a thousand miles?
    When there's no end to it all
    Try to surrender
    Let yourself fall and just
    Try to remember
    You're Not The Only One who feels pain
    Open your heart and live again
    The rule you depend upon
    From this day on
    You're Not The Only One
    Throw back the shutters and unlock the spell
    Let sunshine light your face
    The growing fears that you know so well
    Will vanish into space
    You're Not The Only One who needs faith
    Climbing the face of the unknown
    To tell you you're not alone
    And, above all else
    You're Not The Only One
    Free Yourself
    Take a good look around
    There's a lot of love to be found
    Love will not let you down

    ((Adapted from: I Went To the Alehouse (A Knave Is A Knave) - 1719; A Gob Is A Slob)
    Composer(s): Oscar Brand
    Performer(s): Doris Day



    I walked down the street like a good girl should
    He followed me down the street like I knew he would
    Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be
    So listen and I'll tell you what this fella did to me

    I walked to my house like a good girl should
    He followed me to my house like I knew he would
    Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be
    So listen while I tell you what this fella did to me

    I never saw the boy before
    So nothin' could be sillier
    At closer range his face was strange
    But his manner was familiar

    So I walked up the stairs like a good girl should
    He followed me up the stairs like I knew he would
    Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be
    So listen and I'll tell you what this fella did to me

    I stepped to my door like a good girl should
    He stopped at my door like I knew he would
    Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be
    So listen while I tell you what this fella did to me

    He asked me for a good-night kiss
    I said, "It's still good day"
    I would have told him more except
    His lips got in the way

    So I talked to my ma like a good girl should
    And Ma talked to Pa like I knew she would
    And they all agreed on a married life for me
    The guy is my guy wherever he may be

    So I walked down the aisle like a good girl should
    He followed me down the aisle like I knew he would
    Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be
    And now you've heard the story of what someone did to me

    And that's what he did to me

    and various other artists



    You're nobody till somebody loves you
    You're nobody till somebody cares
    You might be king, you might possess, the world and its gold
    But gold won't bring you happiness, when you're growing old

    The world still is the same
    You'll never change it
    As sure as the stars shine above
    You're nobody till somebody loves you
    So find yourself somebody to love

    A Gob Is A Slob
    ((Adapted from: I Went To the Alehouse (A Knave Is A Knave) - 1719; (aka A Guy Is A Guy (by Doris Day))
    Composer(s): Oscar Brand



    My mother told me not to talk to strangers in the street
    As years went by, remembering, I was never indiscreet
    But girls are girls and boys are boys
    and boys and girls are fools
    They're all the same, so who's to blame?
    But it's nature makes the rules!

    Well, I walked down the street like a good girl should
    He followed me down the street like I knew he would
    Because a gob is a slob wherever he may be
    Listen, I'll tell you what the fellow did to me

    I walked to my house like a good girl should
    He followed me to my house like I knew he would
    Because a gob is a slob wherever he may be
    Listen while I tell you what the sailor did to me

    I ran up the stair like a frightened hare
    I even locked my bedroom door
    I turned to the bed, I almost fell over dead
    Somehow he sneaked right in before!

    So I got into bed like a good girl should
    He followed me into bed like I knew he would
    Because a gob is a slob wherever he may be
    Listen I'll tell ya what this sailor did to me

    I pursed my lips, I tried to frown
    But frowning's not my style
    I tried to pout, but what came out was a coy inviting smile
    I knew he would of had me, even if I had refused
    He didn't need encouragement, but what he got he used

    I got into bed like a good girl should
    He followed me into bed like I knew he would
    Because a gob is a slob wherever he may be
    Now listen while I tell ya what this sailor did to me

    I got me a time like a good girl should
    He got him a time like I knew he would
    Because a gob is a slob wherever he may be
    So listen while I tell ya what this sailor did to me

    He grabbed me tight and he switched off the light
    And he settled down to stay
    I would have said, "Please leave this bed"
    But who the hell is built that way?

    So I had me a child like a good girl should
    And he went off to sea like I knew he would
    Because a gob is a slob wherever he may be
    Now you heard the story of what this sailor did to me

    Feeling better, now that we're through
    Feeling better, cause I'm over you
    I've learned my lesson, it left a scar
    Now I see how you really are

    You're no good, you're no good, you're no good
    Baby, you're no good (I'm gonna say it again)
    You're no good, you're no good, you're no good
    Baby, you're no good

    I broke a heart, that's gentle and true
    Yes, I broke a heart over someone like you
    I'll beg his forgiveness on bended knee
    I wouldn't blame him if he said to me

    You're no good, you're no good, you're no good
    Baby, you're no good (I'm gonna say it again)
    You're no good, you're no good, you're no good

    When I'm feeling blue
    All I have to do
    Is take a look at you
    Then I'm not so blue
    When you're close to me
    I can feel your heartbeat
    I can hear you breathing in my ear
    Wouldn't you agree
    Baby you and me
    Got a groovy kind of love

    Any time you want to
    You can turn me on to
    Anything you want to
    Any time at all
    When I kiss your lips
    Ooh, I start to shiver
    Can't control the quivering inside
    Wouldn't you agree
    Baby you and me
    Got a groovy kind of love

    When I'm feeling blue
    All I have to do
    Is take a look at you
    Then I'm not so blue
    When I'm in your arms
    Nothing seems to matter
    My whole world could shatter
    I don't care
    Wouldn't you agree
    Baby you and me
    Got a groovy kind of love
    (We got a groovy kind of love)
    We got a groovy kind of love

    We got a groovy kind of love

    (Repeat)

    Chorus
    You're never too old to be young
    You're never too old to be young

    When you start to lose your figure
    And your hips are gettin' bigger
    Your chest may slip
    But don't you fret
    No matter how weak your knees may get

    (Chorus)

    Though your teeth are out
    And your whiskers sprout
    And your arches give away
    You're never too old to be young and gay

    (Yodel)

    When ya ain't got any fuzz upon your dome
    When ya ain't got any fuzz upon your dome
    Why the dickens should you care
    If you ain't got any hair
    'Cuz you never have to use a brush and comb

    When you know your legs are gonna give out soon
    When you know your legs are gonna give out soon
    When your joints begin to squeak
    If you practice for a week
    You can walk around and play yourself a tune
    Your voice may crack when you try to sing
    But you can't be good at everything

    (Yodel, etc.)

    (Chorus)

    Composer(s): Carole Bayer Sager - Toni Wine - Domenico Serengay
    Performer(s): I Camaleonti - 1967



    Non c’è più nessuno, che mi aiuti un poco
    Non c’è più nessuno, son' rimasto solo
    Vedo tutto il mondo, che mi crolla intorno
    Un mondo che oramai, non è per me
    Prima mi aiutava, a sentire le parole
    che dicevi tu (che dicevi tu)
    Parole che dicevi tu (che dicevi tu)

    Ora invece ascolto, solamente l’eco
    delle mie parole, e tu non ci sei più

    Non c’è più nessuno che mi dia una mano
    Che mi dica: amico, son' con te
    Ora che lo sai, amore, mio ti prego
    Torna qui con me, torna qui con me
    Ritorna ancora qui con me, amore, torna qui con me

    Non c’è più nessuno che mi dia una mano
    Che mi dica: amico, son' con te

    A Great Day For Freedom
    Composer(s): David Gilmour - Polly Samson
    Performer(s): Pink Floyd



    On the day the wall came down
    They threw the locks onto the ground
    And with glasses high we raised a cry for freedom had arrived

    On the day the wall came down
    The ship of fools had finally run aground
    Promises lit up the night like paper doves in flight

    I dreamed you had left my side
    No warmth, not even pride remained
    And even though you needed me
    It was clear that I could not do a thing for you

    New life devolves day by day
    As friends and neighbours turn away
    And there's a change that, even with regret, cannot be undone

    Now frontiers shift like desert sands
    While nations wash their bloodied hands
    Of loyalty, of history, in shades of grey

    I woke to the sound of drums
    The music played, the morning sun streamed in
    I turned and I looked at you
    And all but the bitter residue slipped away...slipped away

    You're my world
    You're every breath I take
    You're my world
    You're every move I make
    Other eyes see the stars up in the sky
    But for me they shine
    Within your eyes

    As the seas reach for the sun above
    So my arms reach out for you with love
    With your hand resting in mine
    I feel a power so divine.

    You're my world
    You are my night and day
    You're my world
    You're every prayer I pray
    If our love ceases to be
    Then it's the end of my world
    The end of my world
    The end of my world for me

    and multiple other artists



    Say, little honey, I haven't any money
    But it's grand, it's grand
    It's grand when you haven't any money
    To hold your honey's hand

    Say, little honey, don't you think my clothes are funny
    Being second-hand
    And though I'm out of style
    What is it makes my life worthwhile

    A little walk, a little park
    A little bench, a little dark
    A little who's this, a little what's this
    And a great big bunch of you

    A little kiss, a little sigh
    A little when, a little why
    A little who's this, a little what's this
    And a great big bunch of you

    I'm like a robin in the Spring
    That wants to sing all day
    I'll pawn my watch and ev'rything
    If you'll agree to what I say

    A little house, a little lot
    What have we got, well, you know what
    A little who's this, a little what's this
    And a great big bunch of you

    I'm never weary when I hug and kiss my dearie
    Oh, it's fine, just fine
    It's fine ev'rytime I kiss my dearie
    For it's like a drink of wine

    We're very clever 'cause we never, ever
    Ever have to spend a dime
    We never will go short
    Indulging in our favourite sport

    A little walk, a little park
    A little bench, a little dark
    A little who's this, a little what's this
    And a great big bunch of you

    A little kiss, a little sigh
    A little when, a little why
    A little who's this, a little what's this
    And a great big bunch of you

    I'm like a robin in the Spring
    That wants to sing all day
    I'll pawn my watch and ev'rything
    If you'll agree to what I say

    A little house, a little lot
    What have we got, well, you know what

    I've been 'neath the moon before
    Held by the charms
    Of other arms
    I heard love's tune before
    And it used to bore me
    'Till you stood before me

    You're my thrill
    You do something to me
    You send chills right through me
    When I look at you
    'Cause you're my thrill

    You're my thrill
    How my pulse increases
    I just go to pieces
    When I look at you
    'Cause you're my thrill

    Nothing seems to matter
    Here's my heart on a silver platter
    Where's my will
    Why this strange desire
    That keeps mounting higher and higher
    When I look at you
    I can't keep still
    You're my thrill

    A Gospel Song

    Performer(s): Bob Geldof



    If you see her say hello
    If she asks how I'm doing let her know
    If she says is he O.K. say it's slow
    But he's coming round
    And if you sleep with her
    Through the darkest night
    And you wake beside her in the early light
    Kiss her gently like I might
    And bring her round

    If she stumbles if she trips and slows
    In the darkest rain and through the driving snow
    Bring her straight here
    I'll be on my own
    But bring her round

    And every dream and every shadow that you heard
    Makes you want to cry
    'Cause it's a big bad world

    If you want her let her know
    If she's leaving let her go
    All of this will pass but it passes slow
    And you'll come around
    When the wind blows through October skies
    And you wake up in the cold twilight
    And you stretch your hand out and there's
    nothing there but the night
    And the darkness is all around
    If you see her say hello
    If she asks how I'm doing let her know
    If she says is he O.K. say it slow
    But he's coming round

    When the rain falls from the blackened sky
    There's a heart breaking but it feels alright
    See I should have done something but I let it slide
    And I'll come around

    Every dream and every shadow that you've heard
    Don't make it cry like you want to die
    In this big bad world

    You're My Mother
    Composer(s): Chip Davis
    Performer(s): Mud



    Ooh Ooh Ooh
    Ooh Ooh Ooh

    You want me to be more forceful
    You say that I could get there
    Your head’s leaning on my shoulder
    But I don’t know what it’s doing there

    Chorus:
    You're my mother and there is no other
    I'll keep you in mind but you should retire from me

    We sit out in the garden
    And breath the cool fresh air
    Then you come out with a problem
    It’s not like being at the seaside

    Chorus

    Break

    Try to ask you for myself
    Got to let my mind out
    Fixed in one position
    Got to make myself shout

    Chorus

    A Good Year For The Roses
    Composer(s): Jerry Chesnut
    First release by: George Jones - 1970
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick
    On the cigarettes there in the ashtray
    Lyin' cold the way you left'em
    But at least your lips caressed them while you packed
    And a lip print on a half-filled cup of coffee
    That I poured and didn't drink
    But at least you thought you wanted it
    And that's so much more then I can say for me

    It's been a good year for the roses
    And many blooms still linger there
    The lawn could stand another mowin'
    Funny,I don't even care
    And when you turn to walk away
    As the door behind you closes
    The only thing I know to say
    It's been a good year for the roses

    After three full years of marriage
    It's the first time that I haven't made the bed
    I guess the reason we're not talkin'
    There's so little left to say,we haven't said
    And while a million thoughts go racin' through my mind
    I find I haven't spoke a word
    And from the bedroom,the familiar sounds
    Of our one baby's cryin' goes unheard

    But what a good year for the roses
    And may blooms still linger there
    The lawn could stand another mowin'
    Funny,I don't care
    And when you turn to walk away
    As the door behind you closes
    The only thing I know to say
    It's been a good year for the roses

    The only thing I know to say
    It's been a good year for the roses

    You're My Jamaica
    Composer(s): Kent Robbins
    Performer(s): Charley Pride



    Every day I read ads in the paper
    Sayin' come to the island (Come to the island)
    Bikinied ladies, sweet rum drinks
    They'll keep you smilin' (Down in the islands)
    I've got calypso music on the record at home
    When it comes to the warmth and the sunshine
    Well I got my own

    You're my Jamaica, you're where I want to be
    You're my island when I'm being tossed on a stormy sea
    My heavenly haven where I could spend eternity
    You're my Jamaica, you're paradise to me

    White sunny sands, palm trees and tans
    It sounds so invitin' (Sounds so inviting)
    Limbo dancin' and starlight romancin'
    It's all so exciting (Come on down, come on down, come on down)
    Well I've got my flowery shirt
    And rum punch in my hand
    And my own exotic lover and my native land

    You're my Jamaica, you're where I want to be
    You're my island when I'm being tossed on a stormy sea
    My heavenly haven where I could spend eternity
    You're my Jamaica, you're paradise to me

    You're my Jamaica, you're where I want to be
    You're my island when I'm being tossed on a stormy sea
    My heavenly haven where I could spend eternity
    You're my Jamaica, you're paradise to me

    You're my Jamaica, you're where I want to be
    You're my island when I'm being tossed on ...

    A Good Time
    Composer(s): John Prine
    Performer(s): John Prine



    Time was once just a clock to me
    And life was just a book a biography
    Success was something you just had to be
    And I would spend myself unknowingly

    And you know that I could have me a million more friends
    And all I’d have to lose is my point of view
    But I had no idea what a good time would cost
    Till last night when I sat and talked with you

    An apple will spoil if it’s been abused
    A candle disappears when it’s been used
    A rainbow may follow up a hurricane
    And I can’t leave forever on a train

    And you know that I’d survive if I never spoke again
    And all I’d have to lose is my vanity
    But I had no idea what a good time would cost
    Till last night when you sat and talked with me

    You can smile for the lack of something else to do
    And no one will laugh and point a finger at you
    If your tears didn’t always make me feel so bad
    Would you still cry every time that you felt sad?
    I thought I’d heard and seen enough to get along
    Till you said something neither of us knew
    And I had no idea what a good time would cost
    Till last night when I sat and talked with you

    You're My Home
    Composer(s): Billy Joel
    Performer(s): Billy Joel
    and various other artists



    When you look into my eyes
    And you see the crazy gypsy in my soul
    It always comes as a surprise
    When I feel my withered roots begin to grow
    Well I never had a place that I could call my very own
    But that's all right, my love, 'cause you're my home

    When you touch my weary head
    And you tell me everything will be all right
    You say, "Use my body for your bed
    And my love will keep you warm throughout the night"
    Well I'll never be a stranger and I'll never be alone
    Wherever we're together, that's my home

    Home can be the Pennsylvania Turnpike
    Indiana's early mornin' dew
    High up in the hills of California
    Home is just another word for you

    Well, I never had a place that I could call my very own
    But that's all right, my love, 'cause you're my home

    If I travel all my life
    And I never get to stop and settle down
    Long as I have you by my side
    There's a roof above and good walls all around
    You're my castle, you're my cabin and my instant pleasure dome
    I need you in my house, 'cause you're my home

    You're my home

    You're my home ...
