    A Showman's Life
    Composer(s): Jesse Winchester
    Performer(s): Jesse Winchester
    and multiple other artists



    A showman's life is a smokey bar
    The fevered chase of a tiny star
    It's a hotel room and a lonely wife
    From what I've seen of a showman's life

    Nobody told me about this part
    They told me all about the pretty girls and wine
    The money and good times
    No mention of the wear and tear on an old honkey-tonker's heart
    Well, I might have known it
    But nobody told me about this part

    A boy will dream as children do
    Of a great white way, 'til the dream comes true
    And a phoney smile in a colored light
    Is all it is to a showman's life

    Nobody told me about this part
    They told me all about the pretty girls and wine
    The money and good times
    No mention of the wear and tear on an old honkey-tonker's heart
    Well, I might have known it
    But nobody told me about this part

    Waiting Around To Die Composer(s): Townes Van Zandt Performer(s): Townes Van Zandt; and various other artists



    Sometimes I don't know where this dirty road is taking me Sometimes I can't even see the reason why I guess I keep on gamblin', lots of booze and lots of ramblin' It's easier than just a-waitin' 'round to die One-time friends I had a ma, I even had a pa He beat her with a belt once cause she cried She told him to take care of me, she headed down to Tennessee It's easier than just a-waitin' 'round to die I came of age and found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar She cleaned me out and hit it on the sly I tried to kill the pain, I bought some wine and hopped a train Seemed easier than just a-waitin' 'round to die A friend said he knew where some easy money was We robbed a man and brother did we fly The posse caught up with me, drug me back to Muskogee It's two long years, just a-waitin' 'round to die Now I'm out of prison, I got me a friend at last He don't steal or cheat or drink or lie His name's codeine, he's the nicest thing I've seen Together we're gonna wait around and die

    A Shoulder To Cry On
    Composer(s): Merle Haggard
    Performer(s): Charley Pride; Mark Chesnutt; Merle Haggard



    I came here because I knew I'd be welcome
    And because somehow you always understand
    You seem to have a way with lonely people
    And you always were my greatest helping hand

    Now once again I'm here to take advantage
    Though I don't deserve the arms I left alone
    I need to know there's someone who still loves me
    And I need a shoulder to cry on

    I over looked the love you tried so hard to give
    The love I never seem to understand
    I always stay just long enough to hurt you
    And what little love I gave was second hand

    Now once again I'm here to take advantage
    Cause once again the one I love is gone
    I need to know there's someone who still loves me
    And I need a shoulder to cry on

    Yes I need to know there's someone who still loves me
    And I need a shoulder to cry on

    Lonely is the night Now that darkness has fallin' Nothing seems right And the world is callin' Everybody's looking back As the wind comes whispering by The're waitin' for the answers then Like the time they heard a cry Hang on Don't ever go Life's here I know Wind called on me How it took me by surprise Cause night come upon me Creeping through the distant skies Wind tell me what you can 'Bout the life - what I came from A breeze blew and whispered then In a voice rich as the sun Hang on Don't ever go Life's here I know

    When there's a shine on your shoes
    There's a melody in your heart
    With a singable, happy feeling
    What a wonderful way to start
    To face the world every day
    With a "deedle-um-dee-di-di"
    Little melody that is making the world go by

    When you walk down the street
    With a happy-go-lucky beat
    You'll find a lot in what I'm repeating
    When there's a shine on your shoes
    There's a melody in your heart
    What a wonderful way to start the day

    A Shark In Jet's Clothing
    Composer(s): Jimmy Destri
    Performer(s): Blondie



    I always had my eyes on you but you came from across the line
    I had to make good time to see you but you had to pay the fine
    All the boys on my side knew that you were the shark
    If you were found on the borderline you'd be shot in the dark
    Don't wear those clothes again, they don't make it in this crowd
    Don't go out D.T.K., you'll wear your best suit in the ground
    We're meeting in a neutral zone: the last car on the train
    The love you brought shaking up my bones and crawling through our veins
    We always met at the edge of a blade and we left at the end of the fight
    Of all the girls you've played and you laid why did this one have to be white?
    They're gonna get ya at 12 o'clock high, got their sights set low on you
    You better believe me, I wouldn't lie. We better quit before you're through

    They're gonna get ya at 12 o'clock high, got their sights set low on you
    You better believe me, I wouldn't lie
    We better quit before you're through

    Wait Until Tomorrow Composer(s): Jimi Hendrix Performer(s): Jimi Hendrix; and various other artists



    Well, I'm standing here freezing, inside your golden garden Got my ladder leaned up against your wall Tonight's the night we planned to run away together Come on Dolly Mae, there's no time to stall But now you're telling me that ah... I think we better wait till tomorrow I think we better wait till tomorrow I think we better wait till tomorrow Got to make sure it's right So, until tomorrow, goodnight Oh, Dolly Mae How can you hang me up this way On the phone you said you wanted to run off with me today Now I'm standing here like some turned-down serenading fool Hearing strange words stutter from the mixed-up mind of you And you keep telling me that ah... I think we better wait till tomorrow I think we better wait till tomorrow I think we better wait till tomorrow Got to make sure it's right So, until tomorrow, goodnight See if I can talk to this girl alone Oh, Dolly Mae, girl, you must be insane So unsure of yourself leaning from your unsure window pane Do I see a silhouette of somebody pointing something from a tree? Click, bang Oh, what a hang Your daddy just shot poor me And I hear you say, as I fade away We don't have to wait till tomorrow We don't have to wait till tomorrow We don't have to wait till tomorrow It must not have been right, so forever, goodnight Do I have to wait, do I have to wait It's a drag on my part Don't have to wait, don't have to wait

    A Sermon
    Composer(s): Stewart Copeland
    Performer(s): The Police



    When you reach number ten
    And think the struggle ends
    But it ain't the end
    It's only a trend
    You have to unbend
    'Cause it's only a trend
    Don't lose all your friends
    Don't make heroes end
    When you reach number eight it ain't no pearly gate
    'Cause it won't satiate your growing appetite
    You can ply your trade and push your crusade
    Emancipate or indoctrinate, but the
    Traps are all laid for any honest crusade
    Your old values will fade as you struggle to make the grade
    As you struggle to make the grade
    As you struggle to make the grade
    You needn't bother
    When you hit number four you're almost through the door
    But there's a whole lot more you just can't ignore
    The telephone's sure, you know the score
    But don't let this uproar dissipate your encore
    It's written in the news how you paid your dues
    But you've no excuse for the people you abuse
    When you reach number one you can beat your drum
    You can sack your roadies in Birmingham
    When your record is platinum, you can stick it to the bath
    To the wall like you've always planned
    It's written in the news how you paid your dues
    There's no excuse for the people you abuse
    When you reach to the top
    Who do you abuse?
    No excuse
    For the people you abuse

    You've got no excuse
    For the people you abuse

    Who cares how cold and grey the day may be Wait until dark and we'll be warm Our place of love, is where we face our dreams together Where our fantasies take fold When I can feel your nearness in the night My dissapointments disappear The chilliest day may bring us little dreams That seem to miss their mark But, oh my darling, wait until dark

    Serenade To A Jerk
    Composer(s): Wayne Hoefle - Del Porter
    Performer(s): Spike Jones & his City Slickers



    I shouldn't love him, he's lazy
    He sits around while I work
    But when he's near me my heart sings
    A serenade to a jerk

    Sometimes he's stupid and hazy
    Sometimes his brain doesn't hurt
    Still the guy plays on my heart strings
    A serenade to a jerk

    Oh maybe I'm a little fool
    For loving the guy the way I do
    Wonder why I'm stuck with him

    Leaving him would drive me crazy
    I'm sure that it wouldn't work
    So I'll pour my heart out by singing
    A serenade to a jerk

    Oh I shouldn't love him, he's lazy
    He sits around while I work
    Ah but when he's near me my heart sings
    A serenade to a jerk

    Sometimes he's stupid and hazy
    Sometimes his brain doesn't hurt
    Still the guy plays on my heart strings
    A serenade to a jerk

    Oh maybe I'm a little fool
    For loving the guy the way I do,
    Wonder why I'm stuck with him

    Leaving him would drive me crazy
    I'm sure that it wouldn't work
    So I'll pour my heart out by singing
    A serenade to a

    Wait Till The Sun Shines, Nellie Composer(s): Andrew B. Sterling; Harry von Tilzer Performer(s): Bing Crosby; and various other artists



    On a Sunday morn sat a maid forlorn With her sweetheart by her side Through the windowpane, she looked at the rain "We must stay home, Joe," she cried "There's a picnic, too, at the old Point View It's a shame it rained today" Then the boy drew near, kissed away each tear And she heard him softly say "Wait till the sun shines, Nellie When the clouds go drifting by We will be happy, Nellie Don't you sigh Down Lover's Lane we'll wander Sweethearts you and I Wait till the sun shines, Nellie Bye and bye" "How I long," she sighed, "for a trolley ride Just to show my brand new gown" Then she gazed on high with a gladsome cry For the sun came shining down And she looked so sweet on the big front seat As the car sped on its way And she whispered low "Say you're all right, Joe You just won my heart today"

    A Sense Of Wonder
    Composer(s): Van Morrison
    Performer(s): Van Morrison



    I walked in my greatcoat
    Down through the days of the leaves
    No before after, yes after before
    We were shining our light into the days of blooming wonder
    In the eternal presence, in the presence of the flame

    Didn’t I come to bring you a sense of wonder
    Didn’t I come to lift your fiery vision bright
    Didn’t I come to bring you a sense of wonder in the flame

    On and on and on and on we kept singing our song
    Over newtonards and comber, gransha and the Ballystockart road
    With boffyflow and spike
    I said I could describe the leaves for samuel and felicity
    Rich, red browney, half burnt orange and green

    Didn’t I come to bring you a sense of wonder
    Didn’t I come to lift your fiery vision bright
    Didn’t I come to bring you a sense of wonder in the flame

    It’s easy to describe the leaves in the autumn
    And it’s oh so easy in the spring
    But down through January and February it’s a very different thing

    On and on and on, through the winter of our discontent
    When the wind blows up the collar and the ears are frostbitten too
    I said I could describe the leaves for Samuel and what it means to you and me
    You may call my love Sophia, but I call my love philosophy

    Didn’t I come to bring you a sense of wonder
    Didn’t I come to lift your fiery vision
    Didn’t I come to bring you a sense of wonder in the flame

    Wee Alfie at the
    Castle picture house on the Castlereagh road

    Whistling on the corner next door where
    He kept Johnny Mack brown’s horse
    O solo mio by McGimsey
    And the man who played the saw
    Outside the city hall
    Pastie suppers down at Davey’s chipper
    Gravy rings, barmbracks
    Wagon wheels, snowballs

    He never felt that she cared
    Turning to leave
    Feeling her lonely stare
    If only a secret love

    Left more than a broken heart
    Like a fool thnks he felt the start
    Of what he hoped for so long

    He waits though he knows she's gone
    Alone he climbs
    Until he falls

    Only a secret love brings more than a broken heart

    Like a fool I have played the part
    Of what I hoped for so long
    The need to belong...
    In love

    Who wandered far away and soldiered far away
    There was none bolder with good broad shoulder
    He fought many affray, and fought and won

    He’d seen the glory, he’d told the story
    Of battles glorious and deeds victorious
    But now he’s sighing, his heart is crying
    To leave those green hills of Tyrol

    Because those green hills are not highland hills
    Or the island hills, they’re not my land’s hills
    And fair as these green foreign hills may be
    They are not the hills of home

    And now this soldier, this Scottish soldier
    Who wandered far away and soldiered far away
    Sees leaves are falling, and death is calling
    And he will fade away in that far land

    He called his piper, his trusty piper
    And bade him sound a lay
    A pibroch sad to play
    Upon a hillside, a Scottish hillside
    Not on those green hills of Tyrol

    Because those green hills are not highland hills
    Or the island hills, they’re not my land’s hills
    And fair as these green foreign hills may be
    They are not the hills of home

    And now this soldier, this Scottish soldier
    Will wander far no more and soldier far no more
    And on a hillside, a Scottish hillside
    You’ll see a piper play his soldier home

    He’s seen the glory, he’s told the story
    Of battles glorious and deeds victorious
    The bugle’s ceased now, he is at peace now
    Far from those green hills of Tyrol

    Because those green hills are not highland hills
    Or the island hills, they’re not my land’s hills
    And fair as these green foreign hills may be
    They are not the hills of home

    Because those green hills are not highland hills
    Or the island hills, they’re not my land’s hills
    And fair as these green foreign hills may be
    They are not the hills of home

    Wait For Me Composer(s): Daryl Hall Performer(s): Hall & Oates



    Midnight hour almost over Time is running out for the magic pair I know you gave the best that you have But one more chance couldn't be all that hard to bear Wait for me please Wait for me Alright, I guess that's more than I should ask Wait for me please Wait for me Although I know the light is fading fast You could go either way Is it easier to stay I wonder what you'll do when your chance rolls around But you gotta know how much I want to keep you When I'm away I'm afraid it will all fall down Love is what it does and ours is doing nothing But all the time we spent It must be good for something Please forgive all the disturbance I'm creating But you gotta lot to learn if you think that I'm not waiting for you
