All The Way ((Spanish Version: Todo El Camino (by Dean Reed) - 1962)) Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Jimmy Van Heusen First performance by: Frank Sinatra - 1957 Covered by multiple other artists
When somebody loves you It's no good unless he loves you - all the way Happy to be near you When you need someone to cheer you - all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is That's how it's got to feel Deeper than the deep blue see is That's how deep it goes - if its real
When somebody needs you It's no good unless he needs you - all the way Through the good or lean years And for all the in between years - come what may
Who know where the road will lead us Only a fool would say But if you'll let me love you It's for sure I'm gonna love you - all the way, all the way
Wild Wood Composer(s): Paul Weller Performer(s): Paul Weller
High tide - mid afternoon People fly by in the traffics boom Knowing - where you're blowing Getting to where you should be going Don't let them get you down Making you feel guilty about Golden rain bring you riches All the good things - you deserve now Climbing forever trying Find your way out - of the wild wild wood Now there's no justice There's only yourself - that you can trust in And I said - high tide mid afternoon People fly by in the traffics boom Knowing - just where you're blowing Getting to where you should be going Day by day your world fades away Waiting to feel - all the dreams that say Golden rain will bring you riches All the good things - you deserve now - and I say Climbing forever trying Find your way out - of the wild wild wood
Wild Women (Don't Have The Blues) Composer(s): Ida Cox Performer(s): Ida Cox & Coleman Hawkins; and various other artists
I hear these women raving 'bout their monkey men About their trifling husbands and their no good friends These poor women sit around all day and moan Wondering why their wandering papa's don't come home But wild women don't worry, wild women don't have no blues
Now when you've got a man, don't never be on the square 'Cause if you do he'll have a woman everywhere I never was known to treat no one man right I keep 'em working hard both day and night 'Cause wild women don't worry, wild women don't have their blues
I've got a disposition and a way of my own When my man starts kicking I let him find another home I get full of good liquor, walk the streets all night Go home and put my man out if he don't act right Wild women don't worry, wild women don't have their blues
You never get nothing by being an angel child You better change your ways and get real wild I wanna tell you something, I wouldn't tell you a lie Wild women are the only kind that really get by 'Cause wild women don't worry, wild women don't have their blues
All The Time In The World Composer(s): Shel Silverstein - Even Stevens Performer(s): Dr. Hook
Lay down Let's explore this tenderness between us There ain't no one around at all to see us And baby would you mind If maybe you and I Took a little time to find each other?
Baby, we got all the time in the world So why don't we just take it nice and slow? We got everything we need To plant a lovin' seed And all the time we need to watch it grow
Stay down Stay at least until the fire stops burnin' At least until the room has stopped its turnin' And when the embers dyin' low We're lyin' in the afterglow It'll be as sweet as anything we've ever known
Baby, we got all the time in the world So why don't we just take it nice and slow? We got everything we need To plant a lovin' seed And all the time we need to watch it grow
Baby, we got all the time in the world So why don't we just take it nice and slow? We got everything we need To plant a lovin' seed And all the time we need to watch it grow
Baby, we got all the time in the world So why don't we just take it nice and slow?...
Wild Women Do Composer(s): Sam Lorber; Greg Prestopino; Matthew Wilder Performer(s): Natalie Cole
You tell me you want a woman who's As simple as a flower Well if you want me to act like that You'd better pay me by the hour
Don't want to travel in the danger zone Take another number Don't want a lover who can hold her own Baby step aside if you don't want to ride Because
Chorus Wild women do And they don't regret it Wild women show What they're goin' through Wild women do What you think they'll never What you only dream about Wild women do
You think that love is a vision of A princess in a picture Well let me tell you something, little boy You wouldn't know love if it hit ya
Scared of someone who is off the wall Kickin' and a screamin' Don't you want a lover who can do it all? Listen to me Jack I ain't holdin' back Cos
Chorus
Come on and wild with me baby Everybody come on Everybody get wild
Wild Women Composer(s): Benny Hill Performer(s): Benny Hill
Now I don't want you folks to misconstrue What I'm about to say to you But I'm gonna tell you about the women in my life Now I know some gals who are real refined But I always seem to get the other kind And maybe that's why I've never found a wife
Now I used to know a gal in Crewe She was five foot two and eyes of blue And, well she told me that her name was Lotty But I think she was funny in the head 'cause she used to sleep underneath the bed Her parents thought she was a little potty
But I kind of liked the way she'd smile So I went around with her for a while And I kind of thought of her as my bride to be I said, "You're the one girl in my life And I'd like to have you for my wife" She said, "Now what would your wife do with me?"
Chorus: Beware of wild women, those wild, wild women Those wild, wild women around Beware of wild women, those wild, wild women And never ever let 'em get you down
One day I met a movie star She was just getting out of her Rolls Royce car And she was all covered in diamonds and mink Now I kind of liked a gal with money And this one, well, she was a real honey So I said, "Maybe one day you and I could have a little drink"
She said, "You're just my kind of man" She stuck a phone number in my hand She said, "Now phone me up next time that you're in town" I said, "Is this your penthouse," she said, "No It's the fish and chip shop down below But you just phone me up and they'll call me down"
Chorus
Now I was in a Chelsea bar one day And there was a chap stood about five feet away And we was both admiring a girl about twenty-one I said, "You just can't help but stare At that cute little chick with the long blonde hair" He said, "That chick just happens to be my son"
I said, "I didn't mean to offend You must let me make amends I mean at least let me buy you another rum I said, "You must think me an awful cad I didn't know you was his dad" He said, "I'm not, you twit, I'm his mum"
All The Time Composer(s): Barry Manilow - Marty Panzer First release by: Barry Manilow - 1976
All The Time I thought there's only me crazy in a way that no one else could be I would have given everything I own If someone would have said you're not alone All The Time all the wasted time All the years waiting for a sign To think I had it all All The Time All The Time I thought that I was wrong wanting to be but needing to belong If I had just believed in all I had If someone would have said you're not so bad All The Time all the wasted time All the years waiting for a sign To think I had it all All The Time All The Time I Thought there's only me crazy in a way that no one else could be I can't believe that you were somewhere too thinking All The Time there's only you All The Time all the wasted time All the years waiting for a sign To think I had it all All The Time
Wild Wild Angel Composer(s): Jennifer Blake Performer(s): Smokie
Oh the ocean is deep And my heart cannot sleep 'Cause the wind blows my heart to you And it cuts like a knife Every time you say goodbye You're a wild wild angel just for me 'Cause my heart cries so loud But you don't hear the sound I can love you till I die
Wild wild angel rescue me Wild wild angel can't you see Oh wild wild angel it's too late to cry Wild wild angel come to me Wild wild angel can't you see Oh wild wild angel gimme one more try
Oh you're hearing my heart But it's breaking apart 'Cause your love is so hard to find And I'm too proud to cry But too real to live a lie You're a wild wild angel all the time 'Cause my heart has no pride And I know it's not right I will love you till I die My wild wild angel
All The Things She Said Composer(s): Charlie Burchill - Mel Gaynor - John Giblin - Jim Kerr - Mick MacNeil Performer(s): Simple Minds
Don't you look back on a big lost world Crying out tomorrow Don't you look down like the heroes say Come tell me all about it Take me to the streets where the bonfires burn Take me in your arms and I'll fade away When I hear you say what you got to say Anywhere you go, you know I'll still be waiting All the things she said, she said Little darling close your eyes, there'll be no compromising Of all the things she said, she said
Throw me to the street where the heartbeats beating "beating all around me" To the peaceful revolution And the perfect wave, surround me Tell me 'bout the ocean moving in slow motion I see it glitter in the sun Then it's freezing in the moonlight Never look back, never look back, never look away
If freedom comes and goes, you know I'll still be waiting All the things she said, she said You've fought the fight so long, no surrender to temptation Of all the things she said, she said
Stars will fall out for you Luck will surrender I'm calling out to you
Oh to be near you in the first morning light I'd be with you, I dream about you If I could leave here, I would leave here tonight I'd be with you, I'd stay with you tonight Tonight
Anywhere you go, you know I'll still be waiting Of all the things she said, she said When I look into your eyes, I see a new day rising Oh all the things she said, she said Through the eyes of love, and to never know what hate is Of all the things she said, she said She said, this is our time, she said, this is our place This is the space my heart wants to be Little darling close your eyes, there'll be no compromising All the things she said, she said

You paint a rainbow of emotion You are the rhythm...life is the dance... yeah You are the queen of many faces How you can move me with just one glance I dont stand a chance
All the things I love about you Keeps amazing me now All the things I love about you
Youre a garden of many hidden secrets Leaving clues to the mysteries you will reveal You are the eyes of intuition You see through illusion... you know whats real Just something you feel
All of the things I love about you Ten thousand dreams you make come true Devil and angel, lover melted into one...
All the things I love about you Keeps amazing me now All the things I love about you
My while world revolves around you Changing colors with the moon... Keep amazing me I never get enough
You twist the truth still yourre sincere To get your way youll shed a tear Dont need a reason when youre beautiful...
All of the things I love about you Then thousand dreams you make come true Devil and angel, lover melted into one... My whole world revolves around you Changing colors with the moon.

All The Roadrunning Composer(s): Mark Knopfler Performer(s): Dire Straits; Emmylou Harris
A million miles our vagabond heels clocked up beneath the clouds Theyre counting down to show time When we do it for real with the crowds Air miles are owing but they dont come for free And they dont give you any for pain
But if its all for nothing all the road running its been in vain
the rimshots come down like cannon fire and thunder off the wall theres a man in every corner and each one is giving his all
this is my time this is my drum so youll never hear me complain
And if its all for nothing all the road running its been in vain
All the road running all the road running
Well if youre inclined to go up on the wall it can only be fast and high and those who dont like the danger soon find something different to try When theres only a ringin in your ears and an echo down memory lane
But if its all for nothing all the road running its been in vain
All the road running, all the road running All the road running, all the road running
The shows packing up I sit and I watch the convoy leaving town Theres no pretending Im not a fool, for riding around and around like the pictures you keep of your old, old dad you showed me one time on the plane
But if its all for nothing all the road running Its been in vain
A million miles of vagabond sky clocked up above the clouds Im still your man for roaming as long as there's roamin' allowed
therell be a rider and therell be a wall as long as the dream remains
And if its all for nothing all the road running its been in vain
All the road running, all the road running All the road running, all the road running All the road running, all the road running All the road running, all the road running
Had one lover all my life, he left me high and dry And after I cried all my tears, I learned how to get by Well there's been old friends to ease my pain, Jack Daniels to name a few But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you
I've been out with Johnny Ridge, George Dickle never failed I've taken Southern Comfort just to chase that Coopers Ale And on those cold nights old Granddad would help me make it through But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you
Now I have seen some losers, that would make a statue cry But boy if you had some feathers I'd swear that you could fly Yes, I came in here alone and yes, I've had a few But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you
Now don't get the impression that I care about what you do But when it gets close to thanksgiving I'd hide if I was you Yes, I came in here alone and yes, I've had a few But I'd be damned if I go home with a Wild Turkey like you
All The Pretty Little Ponies Composer(s): Kenny Loggins - David Pack Performer(s): Kenny Loggins
Hush a bye Don't you cry Go to sleep my little baby When you wake You shall have All the pretty little ponies
In your bed Momma said Baby's riding off to dreamland One by one They've begun Dance and prance for little baby Blacks and bays, dapples and greys Running in the night When you wake You shall have All the pretty little ponies
Can you see the little ponies Dance before your eyes All the pretty little ponies Will be there when you arise
All The Nasties Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin Performer(s): Elton John
If it came to pass that they should ask What could I tell them Would they criticize behind my back Maybe I should let them Oh if only then and only then They would understand They'd turn a full-blooded city boy Into a full-blooded city man
If they could face it I could take it in their eyes Oh I know I'd make it Their tiny minds And sacred cows just fake it If only then and only then They would understand They'd turn a full-blooded city boy Into a full-blooded city man
But I know the way they want me In the way they publicize If they could turn their focus off To the image in their eyes Maybe it would help them, help them understand Maybe it would help them, help them understand Maybe it would help them, help them understand That a full-blooded city boy Is now a full-blooded city man
Wild Tales Composer(s): Graham Nash Performer(s): Crosby, Stills & Nash
You came over here with wild tales from the East about the floods that are rushing 'round your door about your old lady who up and walked away from your feast So you flew your bike over Highway 1 you were lucky to land on your feet and you started crying 'cause you bent the key but it was your lady that landed underneath And it is alright take it as it comes you will find a way to get there So tell me your company's being reviewed by the people that sit on the stand and you tell me your factory's been renewed with computers instead of hands So you filmed Old faithful in super-8 and you monitored all of her calls 'cause you caught the milkman with double-cream he was delivering down your halls But it's all right take it as it comes you will find a way to get there
