All Night Operator
Composer(s): Bryan Ferry
Performer(s): Bryan Ferry



Can´t you hear me talkin´ to you
I´m callin´ you one more time
All night operator
Dial me a better line
Can´t you hear me talkin´ to you
Do telephones make you cry?
I try to write letters
Only my pen runs dry
Though my words sound so confused
The feeling is running strong
Stick tight operator
Help me to pass it on
Final connection
A bridge before the fall
Receiver unrestin´
I count on your call
Am I just a number to you
A handful of empty sighs
All night operator
Reader between the lies
With half the world dreamin´
I see through your eyes
A switchboard breathin´
A diary of crossed lines
Can´t you hear me talkin´ to you
I´m callin´ you one more time
All night operator
Dial me better line
If you feel me driftin´ away
Slippin´ into my song
All night operator
All of a sudden - gone

As long as you're not in love with anyone else
Why don't you fall in love with me
You're drivin' me crazy, baby, try to be gay
Will you tell me no, or will you tell me yea

All Night Long
Composer(s): Price

All night long I sigh for you
I keep remembr'ing what your love can do
I miss you, baby, all night long

And all night long I twist and turn
I keep remembr'ing how your kiss can burn
And I  miss you, baby, all night long

I wish I had a magic phone from your heart to mine
I'd call you heart to heart each night on your private line
Then all night long so constantly
I'd keep you busy makin' love to me

I'd love you, baby, all night long
I'd love you, baby, all night long

Composer(s): Joe McCoy
Performer(s): Peggy Lee;
and various other artists



You had plenty money, Nineteen-Twenty-Two
You let other women make a fool of you
Why don't you do right like some other men do?
Get out of here and get me some money too

You're sittin' down wonderin' what it's all about
You ain't got no money, they will put you out
Why don't you do right like some other men do?
Get out of here and get me some money too

If you had prepared twenty years ago
You wouldn't be wanderin' now from door to door
Why don't you do right like some other men do?
Get out of here and get me some money too

I fell for your jivin' and I took you in
Now all you got to offer me's a drink of gin
Why don't you do right like some other men do?
Get out of here and get me some money too
Why don't you do right like some other men do?
Like some other men do

I got the all night Laundry Mat blues
Washing everything I own except my shoes
I got makeup round the collar

Sing the all night Laundry Mat blues
Yes you do
Sing the all night Laundry Mat blues

Why don't you believe me 
It's you I adore
Forever and ever 
Can I promise more
I've told you so often 
The way that I care
Why don't you believe me
It just isn't fair

Here is a heart that is lonely
Here is a heart you can take
Here is a heart for you only
That you can keep or break

How else can I tell you
What more can I do
Why don't you believe me
I love only you

Here is a heart that is lonely
Here is a heart you can take
Here is a heart for you only
That you can keep or break

How else can I tell you
What more can I do
Why don't you believe me
I love only you

Won't you let me try and softly 
guide you down

when I get together with you
we've got a lot of ooooh to do

Why Don't You & I
Composer(s): Chad Kroeger
Performer(s): Santana; The Countdown Singers; 
Kidz Bop Kids; The Starlite Singers



Since the moment I spotted you
Like walking 'round with little wings on my shoes
My stomach's filled with the butterflies
And it's alright
Bouncing round from cloud to cloud
I got the feelin' like I'm never gonna come down
If I said I didn't like it then you know I'd lied

Every time I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Turns out, everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right

So I'll say why don't you and I get together 
an' take on the world, be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again
So I say why don't you and I hold each other, fly to the moon
and straight on to heaven
Cause without you they're never gonna let me in

When's this fever gonna break?
I think I've handled more than any man can take
I'm like a love-sick puppy chasing you around
And it's alright
Bouncin' round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like I'm never gonna come down
If I said I didn't like it then you know I'd lied

Every time I try to talk to you
Get tongue-tied
Turns out, everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right

So I'll say why don't you and I get together an' take on the world
and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again
So I say why don't you and I get together, fly to the moon
and straight on to heaven
Cause without you they're never gonna let me in

Slowly I begin to realize this is never gonna end
But about the same time you walk by
And I say oh here we go again, oh

Every time I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Turns out, everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right

So I'll say why don't you and I get together an' take on the world
and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again
So I say why don't you and I hold each other, fly to the moon
and straight on to heaven
Cause without you they're never gonna let me in

So I'll say why don't you and I get together take and on the world
and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again
So I say why don't you and I hold each other, fly to the moon
and straight on to heaven
Cause without you they're never gonna let me in

So I`ll say why don't you and I get together and take on the world
and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again

All New People
Composer(s): Iain Matthews - Julian Dawson
Performer(s): Iain Matthews



A hundred years from now - all new people

When I was young my sky was wide
And not a lot went on inside
A different drum and a place to hide 
Was all I wanted
Now when I look at what I've done
At who I was how far I've come
I can't unlock (undo) what I've begun
And I'm still haunted

Life she said's a piece of cake
It's just a game of give and take
That's all it is for heaven's sake
Don't complicate it
You know what I think's wrong with you
And this is just my point of view
You want your cake and eat it too
And don't you hate it

One hundred years from now - all new people
One hundred years from now - all new people

I left my love a goodbye note
See you later's all I wrote
And said a prayer she'd stay afloat
With bridges burning
Made a new life for myself
And hoped she'd do the same as well
Then jumped back on the carousel
I'll keep on turning

For about as far as the eye can see
My life stretched out in back of me
Memories came shooting from it 
Like the fiery tail of Halley's comet
In the year 2062
I'll be long gone and so will you
Across the southern hemisphere 
When Halley's comet reappears again

Why Don't Women Like Me?
Composer(s): George Formby
Performer(s): George Formby; - 1933
Clinton Ford; Richard Thompson



Now I know I’m not handsome, no good looks or wealth
But the girls I chase say my plain face will compromise their health
Now I know fellows worse than me bow-legged and boss-eyed
Walking out with lovely women clinging to their side

Now if women like them like men like those, why don’t women like me?
Look at Empress Josephine, the most attractive women that ever was seen
Yet Napoleon short and fat, captivates a lovely looking dame like that
Now if women like them like men like those - why don’t women like me?
Hey, hey, why don’t women like me?

Last night I went out walking, my intentions were to click
But the sights I saw whilst walking out, they nearly made me sick
I must admit I saw some girls, attractive little dears
Arm in arm with ugly men with cauliflower ears

Now if women like them like men like those - why don’t women like me?
What can the attraction be, that’s the thing that always starts to worry me
Although I haven’t got a bean, I’ve got a lot of things that girls have never seen
Now if women like them like men like those - why don’t women like me?
Hey, hey, why don’t women like me?

Now I went for my holidays down to the gay seaside
And I saw a lot of things there being hidden by the tide
The way some women jumped around the man there in the sea
Made me think that there is still a good chance left for me

‘Cause if women like them like men like those, why don’t women like me
Of all the shapes and sizes there I’ve got a chance of clicking yet I do declare
For I don’t want to be a nark, I saw a lot of things below the watermark
Now if women like them like men like those, why don’t women like me?
Hey, hey - why don’t women like me?

Now if women like them like men like those, why don’t women like me?
Take Lord Nelson with one limb, Lady William Hamilton she fell for him
With one eye and one arm gone west, she ran like the devil and she grabbed the rest
Now if women like them like men like those, why don’t women like me?
Hey, hey - why don’t women like me?

All New Minglewood Blues
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Grateful Dead



I was born in the desert Raised in a lion's den
I was born in the desert Raised in a lion's den
Oh, my number one occupation is stealing women from their men

Well, I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
Said, I'm a wanted man in Texas, busted jail and I'm gone for good
Well, the sheriff couldn't catch me
But his little girl sure wish she could

Well now the doctor call me crazy, sometimes I am, sometimes I ain't
Said now the doctor call me crazy, sometimes I am, sometimes I ain't
Yes, and the preacher man call me sinner
But his little girl call me saint

Well a couple shots of whiskey women `round here start looking good
I said a couple shots of whiskey women `round here start looking good
A couple more shots of whiskey, I'm going down to Minglewood

Said, I was born in the desert Raised in a lion's den
Said, I was born in the desert Raised in a lion's den
Yes and my number one occupation is stealing women from their men

I was born in the desert Raised in a lion's den
Oh, my number one occupation is stealing women from their men

I really do appreciate the fact you're sittin' here 
Your voice sounds so wonderful 
But yer face don't look too clear

They say you are a snuff queen 
Honey I don't think that's true 
So, why don't we get drunk and screw 

"Pick it Coral Reefers, here we go..." 

Why don't we get drunk and screw 
I just bought a waterbed it's filled up for me and you

Honey I don't think that's true 
So why don't we get drunk and screw 
Yeah, now baby I say, Lord! 
Why don't we get drunk and screw

All My Troubles
Composer(s): Black Oak Arkansas
Performer(s): Black Oak Arkansas



Got up this morning
Got into my car
Turned on the motor
But it would not start
Late for work
Feelin' tired
Worst of all
I got myself fired
Lost my job
Got my pay
Lost it all
On the ace of spades

But all my troubles
Would be through
If I could make love with you

Things got bad
Out of work
I robbed a store
And I shot the clerk
Woman sweet woman
I done my best
But that got me surrounded
I been shot in my chest
I can hear 'em comin'
Bustin' down the door
If I could only
See you once more

All my troubles
Would be through
If I could make love with you

There's a reason for this story
Morals to my sons
Ya better know what's right
Ya better know what's wrong
When it rains it pours
That's nature's way
We're all little children
That forgot how to play
There ain't but one thing
I got left to say
Somethin' don't come from nothin'
You always gotta pay

But all my troubles
Would be through
If I could make love with you

Performer(s): Kay Kyser;

Why don't we do this more often
Just what we're doing tonight
Gee but it's great to get together again
Why does it only happen now and then?

We ought to do this more often
Don't you agree that I'm right?
Honey, we make each other laugh
And then we make each other sing

And you can never ever overdo the good things
So, Honey, why don't we do this more often
Just what we're doing tonight

All My Trials
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Nick Drake



I had a little book
Was given to me
And every page
Spoke of liberty

All my trials
Will soon be over

There is a tree
In paradise
The pilgrims call it
The tree of life

All my trials
Will soon be over

But it's too late, my friend
Too late
But never mind

All my trials
Will soon be over

If religion were a thing
That money could buy
Then the rich would live
And the poor would die

All my trials
Will soon be over

All my trials
Will soon be over

Why, why don't they understand
Why lead us by the hand
Why don't they understand

Why, why do they smile and say
Love can't be ours today
Why don't they understand

Can it be wrong
Caring for you the way I do
It can't be wrong
Sharing with you
The warmth of love
Of loving, belonging

And so we'll wander hand in hand
Into love's wonderland
Then they will understand

It can't be wrong
Sharing with you
The warmth of love
Of loving, belonging

Performer(s): Nana Mouskouri



Bald bin ich am Ziel meiner Reise

Der Fluss des Vergessens ist tief und weit
Befreit die Seele vom Staub der Zeit

Bald bin ich am Ziel meiner Reise

Die Straße des Lebens führt steil bergauf
Doch wenn ich fall, steh ich wieder auf

Bald bin ich am Ziel meiner Reise

Zu spät zur Umkehr
Zu spät, doch was auch kommt

Bald bin ich am Ziel meiner Reise

Und wenn auch manchmal die Angst erwacht
Der Stern der Hoffnung führt mich durch die Nacht

Bald bin ich am Ziel meiner Reise

Die Quelle der Wahrheit ist klar und kalt
Und wer trinkt aus ihr, wird niemals alt

Bald bin ich am Ziel meiner Reise

Bald bin ich am Ziel meiner Reise
