Allo Élisa Composer(s): M. Pelay - J.M. Rivat Performer(s): Dave
Allo Élisa, tu fais quoi ce soir Allo Élisa, est-ce que tu peux m'voir Ça m'ferait tellement plaisir Je n'peux pas m'endormir Si t'es avec Gainsbourg Dis-le Élisa Mais ne me laisse pas là planté comme ça

Chez toi Lisa, c'est le bonheur Et dans tes bras, on vient souvent Faire des câlins quand on a besoin de quelqu'un Chez toi Lisa, c'est le bonheur Et dans tes bras, on vient souvent Faire des câlins quand on a besoin de quelqu'un Lisa, Élisa

Chez toi Lisa, c'est le bonheur Et dans tes bras, on vient souvent Faire des câlins quand on a besoin de quelqu'un Faire des câlins quand on a besoin de quelqu'un Faire des câlins quand on a besoin de quelqu'un
One day I was on the ground When I needed a hand Then it couldn't be found I was so far down that I couldn't get up You know and one day I was one of life's losers Even my friends were my accusers In my head I lost before I begun
I had a dream but it turned to dust And what I thought was love That must have been lust I was living in style When the walls fell in And when I played my hand I looked like a joker Turn around fate must have woke her Cause lady luck she was waiting outside the door
I'm winning I'm winning I'm winning I'm winning and I don't intend losing again
Too bad it belonged to me It was the wrong time and not meant to be It took a long time and I'm new born now I can see the day that I bleed for If it's agreed that there's a need To play the game and to win again
Winners And Losers Composer(s): Steve Jones; Iggy Pop Performer(s): Iggy Pop
Winners and losers which one am I is it the same under the sky? black motorcycles and the will to survive losers and winners low and high in this glass and wire world surely leeches gain the right to send their message screaming one that has no meaning to people who feel
questions and questions plain as your nose but who would believe a little rose? winners and losers in love with themselves no santa claus no happy elves in this smoking gun existence it gets harder to unwind I'll just eat my breakfast try to keep my questions starving all night
out in the suburbs I met my true fine love down in the suburbs I met my true fine love she gave me money she gave me head she gave my everything and then she went dead
stick out your thumb and hit the open road cat in a Mercedes goes by, he's old he's got some, you got none together maybe you can have some fun-winners and losers gentlemen boozers winners and losers
roll roll roll roll roll your money down rock rock rock rock takin' over this town
Alligator Man Composer(s): Floyd Chance - Jimmy Newman First release by: Jimmy Newman - 1962 Covered by multiple other artists
Mosquitos buzzin' round my head Spanish moss for my bed I sail them sea dried land cause I'm an alligator man I hunt the gator all night long sell his hidin' then I'm gone I pick all the bells I can they love the alligator man This country is my home from this place I'll never roam I'm the leader of the clan I'm the alligator man When I bring my hides to town all the people gather round They just want to shake the hand of the top gator man
Some people search this world for fame but fightin' gators is my game See the scars on my hand I'm the alligator man Top gator man until I die if I marry by and by A pretty belle from the clan I'll still be top gator man This country is my home... I'm the alligator man I'm the alligator man I'm the alligator man
Winners Composer(s): Joe Raposo Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
Here's to the winners - lift up the glasses Here's to the glory still to be Here's to the battle, whatever it's for To ask the best of ourselves, then give much more
Here's to the heroes - those who move mountains Here's to the miracles they make us see Here's to all brothers - here's to all people Here's to the winners all of us can be
Here's to the heroes - those who move mountains Here's to the miracles they make us see Here's to all brothers - here's to all people Here's to the winners all of us can be
Alligator Composer(s): Robert Hunter - Phil Lesh - Ron "Pigpen" McKernan Performer(s): The Grateful Dead
Sleepy alligator in the noonday sun Sleepin' by the river just like he usually done Call for his whisky He can call for his tea Call all he wanta but he can't call me
Oh no I been there before and I'm not comin' back around there no more
Creepy alligator comin' all around the bend Talkin' bout the times when we was mutual friends I check my mem'ry I check it quick yes I will I check it runnin' some old kind of trick
Oh no well I been there before and I ain't a comin' back around there no more no I'm not
Hung up waitin' for a windy day Hung up waitin' for a windy day Tear down the Fillmore Gas the Avalon
Ridin' down the river in an old canoe a bunch of bugs and an old tennis shoe out of the river all ugly and green the biggest old alligator that I've ever seen teeth big and pointed and his eyes were buggin' out contact the union, put the beggars to route screamin' and yellin' and lickin' his chops he never runs he just stumbles and hops just out of prison on six dollars bail mumblin at bitches and waggin' his tail
Alligator runnin' round my door Alligator runnin' round my door Alligator runnin' round my door Alligator runnin' round my door
Alligator creepin' round the corner of my cabin door He's comin' round to bother me some more
Before My Time Composer(s): Dave Dudley Performer(s): Dave Dudley
Yes I know that I'm about to lose you 'Cause someone else is always on your mind Why must I have to give you up and give my heart up too For a love that came along before my time You say with me you think you've made a big mistake Well good luck I hope your ending turns out fine It's gonna hurt a long long time That's the price I'll pay For a love that came along before my time Well please don't blame me if I stay in love with you And while I'm alone, if I pretend that you're still mine I can stand my loneliness if I know you're not blue With a love that came along before my time With a love that came along before my time
Wings Composer(s): Tim Buckley Performer(s): Tim Buckley
Although you've spoken many times before A sight of birth he leaves you by a door And now you know he doesn't understand And all you need is the warmth of his hand
And if he'd smile your loving blood would dance One silent kiss leaves you in a trance And now you know you cannot live alone But you will find your future is unknown One day the questions rise On wings of chance you fly
And on that day your laughs and tears will die And fall as free as seabirds climb the skies And you will love when love comes your way And when it comes there's nothing more to say And now you know he doesn't understand And now you know you don't need his hand One day the questions die On wings of chance you fly
Artificial Rose Composer(s): Tom T. Hall Performer(s): Jimmy C. Newman; Dave Dudley
The little waitress wore an artificial rose I met her in a truckstop long ago She brought my coffee with a smile and then sat down And we started talking bout my wanderin' round
I recall the night I gave her that red rose Just a little joke between us I suppose But she laughed and tucked it in her golden hair And from that day on she always wore it there
Never blooms never grows artificial rose
As time went out I got to know her well Grew to love her but I knew I couldn't tell About the other woman farther down the line But she trusted me, said I was not that kind
Never blooms never grows artificial rose
One night when I had traveled many miles I pulled in and thought I'd see her loving smile But she only left a package tied in red And inside a little tear stained note that read
She said I've found out now I return to you This rose that I've been wearing like a fool May your life be cold and lonely as can be Like this artificial rose you gave to me
Allez Vaï Marseille Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Marseille mon ami Dès l'entrée à l'école Avec toi j'ai appris Que l'on a rien pour rien Entre les coups de coeurs Et ceux pris dans la gueule Vaincu ou bien vainqueur J'ai trouvé mon chemin Marseille mes amours Un peu tendre un peu brute Tu as pétri mes jour Et chassé mes complexes En me jetant tout cru Dans les bras de tes putes Qu'ont le coeur et le cul Comme la porte d'Aix
Allez vaï Marseille À l'ombre ou au soleil Bois ton pastis et chante Ces refrains de Scotto Qui t'habillaient si bien Allez vaï Marseille Va donner des conseils Aux joueurs de pétanque Parle fort, parle haut Et conteste le point Prends la voix de César Prends le ton de Panisse Et que Dieu te bénisse De mentir avec art Allez vaï Marseille Ton ciel est sans pareil Et ta mer abusive Qui vient lécher tes rives S'étirant au soleil
Marseille tu trafiques Et vis de contrebande Tu joues avec les flics T'aimes les armes à feu Tu te veux Chicago Mais tu as le coeur tendre Le plus mauvais mélo Te met les larmes aux yeux Marseille lâche-moi Moi qui connais tes failles Tu ne me trompes pas Quand tu joues les malfrats Ne fais pas le malin Je sors de tes entrailles J'ai tété à ton sein Et j'ai joui dans tes bras
Allez vaï Marseille A l'ombre ou au soleil Bois ton pastis et chante Ces refrains de Scotto Qui t'habillaient si bien Allez vaï Marseille Va donner des conseils Aux joueurs de pétanque Parle fort, parle haut Et conteste le point Mais à l'heure où l'amour Tel un vent de Provence Mi-léger, mi-violent Vient perturber tes jours Allez vaï Marseille Va courtisez Mireille Elle t'attend brûlante Et fais-lui des enfants Qui auront ton accent Marseille
Alleen Is Maar Alleen English Title: Lost Without Your Love Performer(s): Rob de Nijs
Daar sta je dan alleen Vrienden zeggen me, je komt er wel doorheen Sinds je wegging weet ik niet meer wat ik doe Ik leef niet meer, ik ben moe Maar wat doet het er nog toe Ik slaap haast niet meer 's nachts Elke morgen naar kantoor om kwart voor acht 's avonds eten uit de diepvries, kant en klaar De hond een brok tartaar Mijn god was jij hier maar
Want alleen is maar alleen Ik kan niet leven met die stilte om mij heen Waar ik ga of waar ik sta of waar ik ben Op straat of in de tram Ik hoor overal je stem En doof ik 's nachts het licht Dan droom ik dat je naast me ligt
Okay, je bent nu vrij Maar ben je echt zoveel vrijer dan bij mij? Ook met hem wordt het leven op den duur een sleur En wijst hij je dan de deur Dan sta jij alleen
Want alleen is maar alleen Soms vertel ik het de mensen om me heen Kom terug voordat mijn wereld is vergaan Ik smeek je, kijk mij aan Wat heb ik je misdaan Nee, hou je maar stil Ik voel nu wel dat jij me nooit meer wil

The night is young and love is new The night will dring me close to you The music playing sweet My heart will skip a beat
To hold you in my arms tonight Will fill my heart with great delight Tonight's a night for love It's love that I'm thinking of
Wine brings the rosiest glow Wine makes your troubles all go Wine warms the night desire Exciting your mind with its fire Then for spice, women really are nice Soft music will melt the ice
Wine, loving women and song You try it, you'll never go wrong Find wine exciting and women inviting Your troubles, like bubbles Will vanish in song Music and dancing, and wine and romancing You might as well smile, you only live a while
Time is so fleeting, all problems repeating You'll find yourself greeting Each day with a frown If you would beat it, a few things are needed Just wine and fine women and a little song
Life's a game we must play Ev'ry day of the year Might as well play the game With the best of good cheer
Vintage wine brings relief From the cares of the day Play it smart, cares depart With a sparkling glass of wine
Glasses up, glasses up Here's to happiness Drink a toast, drink a toast Drink to loveliness
Glasses up, live it up, now Before time has flown Gaily laugh, Gaily sing Let your voices ring You will find, sips of wine Will contentment bring
Now's the time Nothing can go wrong Here's to wine, women and song
