    Aba Daba Honeymoon
    ((Dutch Version: Sinjorentram (by De Strangers) - 1964))
    Composer(s): Arthur Fields - Walter Donovan
    First release by: Arthur Collins & Byron Harlan - 1914
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Way down in the Congoland
    Lived a happy chimpanzee
    She loved a monkey with a long tail
    (Lordy, how she loved him!)
    Each night he would find her there
    Swinging in the cocoanut tree
    And the monkey gay, at the break of day
    Loved to hear his Chimpie say...

    "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Said the Chimpie to the Monk
    "Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Said the Monkey to the Chimp
    All night long they'd chatter away
    All day long they were happy and gay
    Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way

    "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Means "Monk, I love but you"
    "Baba, daba, dab" in monkey talk
    Means "Chimp, I love you, too"
    Then the big baboon one night in June
    He married them and very soon
    They went upon their aba daba honeymoon

    "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Said the Chimpie to the Monk
    "Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Said the Monkey to the Chimp
    All night long they'd chatter away
    All day long they were happy and gay
    Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way

    "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Means "Monk, I love but you"
    "Baba, daba, dab" in monkey talk
    Means "Chimp, I love you, too"
    One night they were made man and wife
    And now they cry, "This is the life
    Since they came from their aba daba honeymoon

    Well, you should have heard that band
    Play upon their wedding day
    Each Chimp and Monkey had nutshells
    (Lordy, how they played them)
    And now it is every night
    High up in the cocoanut tree
    It's the same old thing, with the same old swing,
    When the Monk and Chimpie sing...

    "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Said the Chimpie to the Monk
    "Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Said the Monkey to the Chimp
    All night long they'd chatter away
    All day long they were happy and gay
    Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way

    "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Means "Monk, I love but you"
    "Baba, daba, dab" in monkey talk
    Means "Chimp, I love you, too"
    Then the big baboon one night in June
    He married them and very soon
    They went upon their aba daba honeymoon

    "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Said the Chimpie to the Monk
    "Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Said the Monkey to the Chimp
    All night long they'd chatter away
    All day long they were happy and gay
    Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way

    "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab"
    Means "Monk, I love but you"
    "Baba, daba, dab" in monkey talk
    Means "Chimp, I love you, too"
    One night they were made man and wife
    And now they cry, "This is the life"
    Since they came from their aba daba honeymoon

    We Are Detective
    Composer(s): Tom Bailey; Alannah Currie; Joe Leeway
    Performer(s): Thompson Twins



    Somebody's watching me
    and now I'm nervous and I shouldn't be
    Somebody's got their eye on me
    perhaps i should invite him up for tea?
    We saw him smoking by the newspaper stand
    there's something odd about his gloved left hand
    Saw him again inside the old cafe
    he makes us tense we wish he'd go away

    (chorus)
    We are detective
    we are select
    We are detective
    come to collect
    Somebody's after me
    he left his footprints by the garden tree
    Last night when I got home
    I got the feeling I was not alone!
    Someone is on our tail
    we think they're opening up our morning mail
    And now each time the telephone rings
    we think of frightening things

    (repeat chorus)

    We dress up in disguise
    to get away from all those prying eyes
    Our friends all think we're mad
    but we know better cos the spy is bad

    (repeat chorus x2)

    One day you're up and the next day you're down
    You can't face the world with your head to the ground
    The grass is always greener on the other side, they say
    So don't worry, boys, life will be sweet some day
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    We made enough mistakes
    But you know we got what it takes

    Oh, we ain't got nothin' yet
    No, we ain't got nothin' yet

    Nothin' can hold us and nothin' can keep us down
    And someday our names will be spread all over town
    We can get in while the getting is good
    So make it on your own, yeah, you know that you could
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    We got to make the break
    'Cause we got too much at stake

    We made enough mistakes
    But you know we got what it takes

    Wat als het duister blijft
    En nooit meer zon
    Wat als de regen
    Nooit meer op ons vallen kon

    Wat met de oorlogsstrijd
    Gaat het voorbij
    Wat over alles al
    Dat van jou is en van mij

    Weet je nog de groene weiden
    En de kinderen in de klas
    Weet je nog wat we toen zeiden
    Toen alles nog veel beter was

    Ahahahah
    Oehoehoehoeh
    Ahahahah
    Oehoehoehoeh

    Wat is er met ons gebeurd
    De wereld en ons
    Alles is grauw gekleurd
    En ons hart lijkt een gebons

    Wat als geen bloem ontluikt
    Geen vogel meer zingt
    De bronnen zijn opgebruikt
    En de aarde gans verminkt

    Hoor het schreeuwen van de kudde
    En hun angst vlak voor de dood
    Heel de wereld lijkt te schudden
    Eindigend in ademnood

    Ahahahah
    Oehoehoehoeh
    Ahahahah
    Oehoehoehoeh

    Ik droom nog vaak
    Van alles wat ik zag als kind
    Maar ik kijk omhoog en rond mij
    Is alles zwart, is dit het eind

    Ahahahah
    Oehoehoehoeh
    Ahahahah
    Oehoehoehoeh

    Ahahahah
    Oehoehoehoeh
    Ahahahah
    Oehoehoehoeh
    Heyyehe

    Wat nu met gisteren
    Wat met vandaag
    Wat met de toekomst
    En de ozonlaag
    Met het concentratiekamp
    Wat met politiek
    Wat als heel de wereld brandt
    Wat met tiranie
    Wat met het laatste woord
    Dat nooit werd gezegd
    Wat met het toevluchtsoord
    Wie kan daar terecht
    Wat met de ziekte aids
    Wat met het bedrog
    Wat met zo heel veel wreeds
    Zijt gij er nog
    Wat met wat jij nog wou
    Wat met ons verdriet
    Vluchtelingen in het nauw
    Hindoe of semiet
    Wat met dieren in 't asiel
    Wat met hongersnood
    Wat met schrijvers in exil
    Wat met 'hij moet dood'
    Wat met al die kindersex
    Wat met slavernij
    En de prostitutie in de maatschappij
    Wat met nergens leven meer
    Wat met al ons geld
    Wat met de stratosfeer
    Zijn wij uitgeteld

    We just as time began
    Two friends reaching for a hand
    We took our love to heart
    Somewhere in the dark holding on for life

    We speaking without lies
    No words needed - feeling wise
    One have holded out of two
    With the love for we with just me and you

    We kissed away the tease
    As time took us through the eve
    Smiles are letting worlds behind
    Mountains we could climb never feeling rain

    We tasted all the joy
    Sweet dreams no one can destroy
    Fools are kissing love away
    Are blind to signs only we can see

    We can see

    I get up and I get down
    I don't know how to take it
    All the pain makes me scream and shout
    I wonder if I'll make it

    I love the feeling when the magic is just right
    There's no revealing what is hidden in the night

    Riding on a train I can't control
    No one else to blame I can't let go

    In the darkness I can feel
    The things tht makes me crazy
    Hands of madness cold as steel
    I find it quite amazing

    Never forsaking what a dreamer needs to know
    Rules meant for breaking and the seeds I have to sow

    Riding on a train that I can't control
    No one else to blame but I can't let go
    It's calling me, it's calling me
    It's calling me, it's calling me
    I'm riding on a train that I can't control

    See no evil, fear no fright
    Never lose the feeling
    Keep the targets in your sight
    Know the cards you're dealing

    Never forsaking what a dreamer needs to know
    Rules meant for breaking and I gotta let, I gotta let go

    Riding on a train that I can't control
    No one else to blame but I can't let go
    It's calling me, it's calling me
    It's calling me, it's calling me
    I'm riding on a train that I can't control

    10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!

    We're gonna take a trip, girl
    So slip into somethin' slinky & smooth
    Just wave the world goodbye, let's fly
    'Cause girl, I've got a whole lot to prove
    I need to show you I know you and me
    Were meant to go the whole route
    If you stick with me, girl
    You'll see what the game of love's all about
    I'm gonna put a smile upon your face
    Get ready now, you'd better brace yourself
    We're gonna take a trip in outer space
    Fly now, we'll be back later, girl
    Come on and go with me
    And you'll see what the game of love's all about
    It's way way out, way way out
    Way way out, way way out

    Time to pack your bag, just grab my hand
    And let me show you the way
    I've nominated you the girl who
    I would like to lead me astray
    I'm gonna prove to you that love is groovy
    So you'd better watch out
    I'm gonna hold you, kiss you
    Teach you what the game of love's all about
    The moment that I saw you in the crowd
    I planned to take you into orbit, girl
    I'm gonna get us lost inside a cloud
    'Cause that's the only way to fly
    So put your trust in me
    And you'll see what the game of love's all about
    It's...
    (repeat)
    Way way out, way way out

    A.M.A. Song
    Composer(s): Phil Ochs
    Performer(s): Phil Ochs



    We are the nation's physicians
    Yes, we give to our lobbies every day
    We will fight against disease when the money comes with ease
    And when we get together we say
    Hooray for A.M.A.
    And for us doctors gluts of higher pay
    If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
    'Cause that's the free enterprise way

    We've divided up the sections of the body
    Every day we specialize more and more
    But we really love to stitch the diseases of the rich
    We are sure there is a clinic for the poor
    Hooray for the A.M.A
    And for us doctors gluts of higher pay
    If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
    'Cause that's the free enterprise way

    And our waiting rooms are getting pretty crowded
    It is sad to see our patients sit and bleed
    But if you must use our ointment then you must have an appointment
    Or who'll pay for those magazines you read
    Hooray for the A.M.A
    And for us doctors gluts of higher pay, higher pay
    If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
    'Cause that's the free enterprise way

    And now the government is getting too ambitious
    Yes, we know they want to socialize us all
    Well our oath was hippocratic but with money we're fanatic
    So we'll see you in Canada in the fall
    Hooray for the A.M.A.
    And for us doctors gluts of higher pay
    If you can't afford my bill don't you tell me that you're ill
    'Cause that's the free enterprise way
    Amalgamated A.M.A.

    Don't you have a word to show what may be done
    Have you never heard a way to find the sun
    Tell me all that you may know
    Show me what you have to show
    Won't you come and say
    If you know the way to blue?

    Have you seen the land living by the breeze
    Can you understand a light among the trees
    Tell me all that you may know
    Show me what you have to show
    Tell us all today
    If you know the way to blue?

    Look through time and find your rhyme
    Tell us what you find
    We will wait at your gate
    Hoping like the blind

    Can you now recall all that you have known?
    Will you never fall
    When the light has flown?
    Tell me all that you may know
    Show me what you have to show
    Won't you come and say
    If you know the way to blue?

    In the evening at sundown is where I start to cry
    When the sweet memories of you keep drifting by
    I'm alone and forsaken you've torn me apart
    For the way that you're livin’ is breakin’ my heart

    I can't go on living your cruel wicked ways
    Many times I have prayed Lord take me away
    That’s why in the evening we seem so far apart
    For the way that you're living is breaking my heart

    Ah Buddy now…

    Night after night I cry myself to sleep
    While you’re cheatin' like a tramp on the street
    My head now is bowed you've torn me apart
    For the way that you're living is breakin’ my heart

    There's a new day tomorrow but I can't plainly see
    There'll be no sunshine for you and for me
    T'would be better for us both to go ahead and part
    For the way that you're living is breaking my heart

    Guy:
    I want a zoot suit with a reet pleat
    And a drape shape, and a stuff cuff
    To look sharp enough to see my Sunday gal

    Gal:
    You want a reef sleeve with a right stripe
    And a rare square, so the gals will stare
    When they see you struttin' with your Sunday pal.

    Guy:
    (That's me)

    Gal:
    You wanta look keen so your dream will say
    "You don't look like the same beau"
    So keen that she'll scream, "Here comes my walkin' rainbow"

    Guy:
    So make a zoot suit with a reet pleat
    And a drape shape, and a stuff cuff
    To look sharp enough to see my Sunday gal
    Now, what you want, baby?

    Gal:
    I want a brown gown with a zop top
    And a hip slip, and a laced waist
    In the sharpest taste to see my Sunday man

    Guy:
    (In his zoot suit)

    Gal:
    A scat hat and a zag bag
    And a slick kiss, so the other chicks
    Will be jealous when I'm with my Sunday fan
    I wanta look keen so my dream will say
    "Ain't I the lucky fellah"
    So keen that he'll scream, "Baby's in Technicolor"

    Guy:
    So make a reet pleat with a drape shape
    And a stuff cuff, to look sharp enough
    To see my Sunday, Sunday gal

    Way Of The World
    Composer(s): Albert Hammond; Graham Lyle
    Performer(s): Ray Hamilton;
    and various other artists



    Baby, I need a hand to hold tonight
    And one bright star to remind me
    How dear is this life
    And baby, I’ve never known anyone like you
    There’s something very special about you
    I can’t imagine living without you

    It’s the way of the world and it’s motion
    And no ocean can keep us apart
    When the moment is right and you’re holding me tight
    You capture the beat of my heart
    In my heart there’s s fire always burning
    And there isn’t a thing I can’t do
    I’m resigned to the fact that there’s no turning back
    And I’ll never regret loving you

    Baby, I will go anywhere you need
    As long as you’re there beside me
    Baby, that’s all I need
    Hold me, hold me and never let me go
    I’m always gonna care about you
    I never wanna be without you

    It’s the way of the world and it’s motion
    And no ocean can keep us apart
    When the moment is right and you’re holding me tight
    You capture the beat of my heart
    In my heart there’s s fire always burning
    And there isn’t a thing I can’t do
    I’m resigned to the fact that there’s no turning back
    And I’ll never regret loving you

    You’re everything I believe in
    So don’t ever lose the feeling
    Don’t ever lose the feeling

    A Young Gypsy
    Composer(s): Joan Baez
    Performer(s): Joan Baez



    A young gypsy fell out in a slumber
    Heading north with a driver he knew
    Someone he'd lived with and trusted
    A young woman who trusted him too

    That very same day the young gypsy
    Had come from a farm in the west
    Where the children had played throughout the heat of the day
    Affording the gypsy no rest

    And the gypsy's bones were weary
    And the front seat looked secure
    And the gypsy slept on until the sun it was gone
    And the stars pierced the eyes of the girl at his side

    The next morning's day would be Easter
    He'd dress in his only fine shirt
    And shuffle through clusters of strangers
    With his gaze and his shoes in the dirt

    And the woman who loved him would watch him
    Protect him from curious stares
    For the womenfolk tend to be friendly
    And the gypsy's as young as he's fair

    And the evening brought on laughter
    And jars of bright red wine
    And the gypsy drank some and the gypsy had fun
    And his dancing got wild and the grandmothers smiled

    Sleeping came easily after
    In the arms of the woman that fold
    Up the secrets and dreams of the gypsy
    That will never be sought or be sold
    In fact, they will never be told
    For the gypsy is two years old

    Way Down Yonder In New Orleans
    Composer(s): Henry Creamer; J. Turner Layton
    Performer(s): Freddy Cannon



    Well, way down yonder in New Orleans in the land of the dreamy scenes
    There's a garden of Eden, ah-you know what I mean

    Yeah, Creole babies with flashin' eyes softly whisper with tender sighs
    And then you stop!
    Oh won't you give your lady fair a little smile?
    And then you stop!
    You bet your life you'll linger there a little while

    Yeah, there is heaven right here on earth with those beautiful queens
    Yeah, way down yonder in New Orleans
    Whoo!

    Way down yonder in New Orleans, whoo!, in the land of the dreamy scenes
    There's a garden of Eden, you know what I mean

    Well, Creole babies with flashin' eyes softly whisper with tender sighs
    And then you stop!
    Oh won't you give your lady fair a little smile?
    And then you stop!
    You bet your life you'll linger there a little while

    Yeah, there is heaven right here on earth with those beautiful queens
    Well, way down yonder in New Orleans
    Yeah! whoo!

    A Young Girl
    ((Adapted from: Une Enfant (Edith Piaf) - 1951))
    ((Dutch Version: Een Meisje Van 16 (Boudewijn de Groot) - 1965))
    Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Robert Chauvigny - Oscar Brown Jr.
    Performer(s): Cher - 1966



    She left her neighbourhood
    In which everyone was filthy rich
    She left her parent's home
    And strayed with a vagabond
    Who made vows of love she never heard
    And she believed his every word

    She left no forwarding address
    Just took her youth and happiness
    As with the boy she vanished in
    The secret sweetness of their sin

    Oh, young girl
    Oh, young girl of sixteen
    Child of spring-time
    Still green
    Lying there by the road

    He told her: "love demanded space"
    So they roamed from place to place
    Although she realized she'd sinned
    She threw caution to the wind
    As she followed him around
    While he slowly dragged her down

    So overpowering was her love
    That it had made a captive of
    The young girl's heart and soul and mind
    In other words: love drove her blind

    Oh, young girl
    Oh, young girl of sixteen
    Child of spring-time
    Still green
    Laying there by the road

    Too much emotion for a girl
    She let her heart become her world
    But worlds that God had never wrought
    Fall asunder we are taught
    Had she been wise she would have known
    She couldn't feed him love alone

    She should of known the day would come
    When he would quit her just for crumbs
    He needed fresh young meat to carve
    And left her heart and mind to starve

    Oh, young girl
    Oh, young girl of sixteen
    Child of spring-time
    Still green
    Lying there by the road

    Dead

    Way Down The Old Plank Road
    (Traditional)



    I'd rather be in Richmond in all the hail and rain
    Then to be in Georgia, boys, wearing that ball and chain

    Won't get drunk no more
    Won't get drunk no more
    Won't get drunk no more
    Way down the old plank road

    I went down to Mobile to get on the gravel train
    Very next thing they heard of me, had on the ball and chain

    Doney, oh dear Doney, what makes you treat me so
    Caused me to wear the ball and chain and now my ankles sore

    Knoxville is a pretty place, Memphis is a beauty
    If you want to see them pretty girls, now hop to Chattanoogie

    I'm going to build me a scaffold on the mountain high
    So I can see my pretty girl as she goes riding by

    My wife died a Friday night, Saturday she was buried
    Sunday was my courting day, and Monday I got married

    Eighteen pounds of meat a week, whiskey here to sell
    How can a young man stay at home, pretty girls look so well

    Ahl-dee-oh-lay-eee-hee
    Ahl-dee-oh-lay-eee-hee-heee
    Ahl-dee-oh-lay-hee-hee, oh-dah-lay-hee-hee
    Oh-dah-lay-heee

    Tramping down the highway, traveling day and night
    I don't know where I'm going to, but I'll get there all right
    I have no one to care for me, I have no place to go
    Everybody knows I'm just a yodeling hobo

    I've been all around the country, been around most everywhere
    But I love that dear ol' sunny South, I love that Texas air
    Away out where the men are men, down in El Paso
    That is where they call me a yodeling hobo

    All my life I've traveled, I'm Alabama bound
    And now I'm always happy in the city or one horse town
    I started out to roamin' 'cause I had no place to go
    Now I've turned out to be a yodeling hobo

    Now you have heard my story, so I'll be on my way
    I hear a Frisco freight train, and it's calling me
    And when the sun sinks in the West, into that dark blue sky
    Just say that I'm a hobo and will be till I die

    Performer(s): Asleep At The Wheel; Billy Joe Shaver



    Adios, goodbye Amigos, I am leavin' you today
    Ain't nobody 'round this town that's gonna miss me anyway
    This ol' money-makin's takin' all the time I have to play
    Mama, hush your mouth, I'm headed South, way down Texas way

    Way down Texas way they play good music every night
    And the dance hall rings with laughter till the early mornin' light
    When cowboys get through pickin', there's not much that's left to say
    But you can really have a good time, Honey, way down Texas way

    Ahhh....Texas fiddles

    The road of life is paved with good intentions I am told
    So I best be on my way now or I may not ever go
    Ain't no need to be a-beggin' me to stay just one more day
    This old wild goose is cuttin' loose, way down Texas way

    Way down Texas way they play good music every night
    And the dance hall rings with laughter till the early mornin' light
    When cowboys get through pickin', there's not much that's left to say
    But you can really have a good time, Sugar, way down Texas way

    Way down Texas way
