America, Here's My Boy!
Composer(s): Arthur Lange - Andrew B. Sterling
Performer(s): Henry Burr



There's a million mothers knocking at the nation's door
A million mothers, yes and there'll be millions more
And while within each mother heart they pray
Just hark what one brave mother has to say

America, I raised a boy for you
America, you'll find him staunch and true
Place a gun upon his shoulder, he is ready to die or do
America, he is my only one, my hope, my pride and joy
But if I had another, he would march beside his brother
America, here's my boy!

There's a million mothers waiting by the fireside bright
A million mothers, waiting for the call tonight
And while within each heart there'll be a tear
She'll watch her boy go marching with a cheer

America, I raised a boy for you
America, you'll find him staunch and true
Place a gun upon his shoulder, he is ready to die or do
America, he is my only one, my hope, my pride and joy
But if I had another, he would march beside his brother
America, here's my boy!

We Were All Wounded At Wounded Knee 
Composer(s): Sandy Baron; Pat Vegas
Performer(s): Redbone



We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
In the name of manifest destiny
You and me you and me you and me

They made us many promises
But always broke their word
They penned us in like Buffalo
Drove us like a heard
And finally on the reservation
We were going for our preservation
We were all wiped out by the seventh Calvary
You and me you and me

We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
In the name of manifest destiny
You and me you and me you and me

Now we make our promises
We won't break our word
Well sing, sing, sing out our story
Till the truth is heard
There's a whole new generation
Which will dream of veneration
Who were not wiped out by the seventh Calvary
You and me you and me.

We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
In the name of manifest destiny
You and me you and me you and me

Words

Words are the key to life
To love and all its pleasures
Words that can touch your heart
Are memories to treasure

They break the sound of silence
When there is something in the air
We may be worlds apart
But words bring us together

And as I write this letter
These are the words I give to you
"We only live one life
These words will last for ever!"

They break the sound of silence
When there is something in the air
We may be worlds apart
But words bring us together

Words can bring happiness
And fill you with emotion
One word can bring out
All the loving and devotion!

And in a moment of sadness
Just when you need a helping hand
Words can reach out to you
With love and understanding

Words are the key to life
To love and all its pleasures
Words that can touch your heart
Are memories to treasure

And as I write this letter
These are the words I give to you
"We only live one life
These words will last for ever!"

Wouldn't It Be Nice
Swedish Title: Skulle De' Va' Skönt
Composer(s): Tony Asher; Mike Love; Brian Wilson
Originally performed by: The Beach Boys
Covered by various other artists



Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong

You know it's gonna make it that much better
When we can say good night and sleep together
Wouldn't it nice if we could wake up in the morning
When the day is new
And after having spend the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through
With happy times together, we feel spending
Wish that every kiss was neverending
Wouldn't it be nice

Maybe if we think, and wish, and hope, and pray
It might come true
Baby then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do
(We could be married)
or we could be married
(And then we'd be happy)
And then we'd be happy
Oh, wouldn't it be nice

Bah, ba, ba, bu, bum, bum
Bah, ba, ba, bu, bum, bum

You know it seems the more we talk about it
It only makes it worse to live without it
But lets talk about it
Oh, Wouldn't it be nice

Bah, ba, ba, bu, bum

Donde brilla el tibio sol
con un nuevo fulgor
dorando las arenas
Donde el aire es limpio
aun bajo la suave luz
de las estrellas
Donde el fuego se hace amor
el río es hablador
y el monte selva
Hoy encontré un lugar
para los dos en esa
nueva tierra
¡America, America!
Todo un inmenso jardín
eso es America
Cuando Dios hizo el Edén
pensó en America
Cada nuevo atardecer
el cielo empieza arder
y escucha el viento
Que me trae con su canción
una queja de amor
como un lamento
El perfume de una flor
el ritmo de un tambor
en las praderas
Lanzas de guerra y paz
de un pueblo que aún
no ha roto sus cadenas.
¡America, America!
Todo un inmenso jardín
eso es America
Cuando Dios hizo el Edén
pensó en America
¡America, America!
Todo un inmenso jardín
eso es America
Cuando Dios hizo el Edén
pensó en America

¡America, America!

Lots of coal makin' lots of 'eat
Warm face, warm 'ands, warm feet

Warm an' tender as 'e can be

You and I, and a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone

Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Some thing's out there"
Floating in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine red balloons
Floating in the summer sky
Panic lads, it's a red alert
There's something here from somewhere else

The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine Decision Street
Ninety-nine ministers meet
To worry, worry, super-scurry
Call the troops out in a hurry

This is what we've waiting for
This is it boys, this is war
The President is on the line
As ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine knights of the air
Riding super high-tech jet fighters
Everyone's a super hero
Everyone's a Captain Kirk

With orders to identify, to clarify and classify
Scrambling in the summer sky
As ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine dreams I have had
Every one a red balloon
Now it's all over and I'm standin' pretty
In this dust that was a city

If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here
And here is a red balloon
I think of you and let it go

Wouldn't It Be Good
Composer(s): Nik Kershaw
First release by: Nik Kershaw - 1984
Covered by multiple other artists



I got it bad
You don't know how bad I got it
You got it easy
You don't know when you got it good
It's getting harder just keeping life and soul together
I'm sick of fighting even though I know I should
The cold is biting through each and every nerve and fibre
My broken spirit is frozen to the core
I don't wanna be here no more

Wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes
Even if it was for just one day
And wouldn't it be good if we could wish ourselves away
Wouldn't it be good to be on your side
The grass is always greener over there
Wouldn't it be good if we cold live without a care

You must be joking
You don't know a thing about it
You've got no problem I'd stay right there if it were you
I got it harder, you couldn't dream how hard it got it
Stay out of my shoes if you know what's good for you
The heat is stifling, burning me up from the inside
The sweat is coming through each and every pore
Don't wanna be here no more

Wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes
Even if it was just for one day
And wouldn't it be good if we could wish ourselves away
Wouldn't it be good to be on your side
The grass is always greener over there
And wouldn't it be good if we could live without a care

I got it bad, you don't know how bad I got it
You got it easy, you don't know when you got it good
It's getting harder just keeping life and soul together
I'm sick of fighting even though I know I should

Hast du etwas Zeit für mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Denkst du vielleicht g'rad an mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Und dass so was von so was kommt

99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Hielt man für Ufos aus dem All
Darum schickte ein General
'ne Fliegerstaffel hinterher
Alarm zu geben, wenn es so wär
Dabei war'n da am Horizont
Nur 99 Luftballons

99 Düsenjäger
Jeder war ein großer Krieger
Hielten sich für Captain Kirk
Das gab ein großes Feuerwerk
Die Nachbarn haben nichts gerafft
Und fühlten sich gleich angemacht
Dabei schoss man am Horizont
Auf 99 Luftballons

99 Kriegsminister -
Streichholz und Benzinkanister -
Hielten sich für schlaue Leute
Witterten schon fette Beute
Riefen Krieg und wollten Macht
Mann, wer hätte das gedacht
Dass es einmal soweit kommt
Wegen 99 Luftballons

99 Jahre Krieg
Ließen keinen Platz für Sieger
Kriegsminister gibt's nicht mehr
Und auch keine Düsenflieger
Heute zieh' ich meine Runden
Seh' die Welt in Trümmern liegen
Hab' 'nen Luftballon gefunden
Denk' an dich und lass' ihn fliegen

Wouldn't It Be Fun
Composer(s): Cole Porter
Performer(s): Seattle Men's Chorus



George Hall (As The Emperor)

Chamberlain:
Wouldn't it be fun not to be famous
Wouldn't it be fun not to be rich!
Wouldn't it be pleasant
To be a simple peasant
And spend a happy day digging a ditch!
Wouldn't it be fun not to be known as an important V.I.P.
Wouldn't it be fun to be nearly anyone
Except me, mighty me!

Yesterday I had to endure a kite-flying match
And rushed to an execution downtown
Then I gave a luncheon for some horrible hectic Huns
Who proceeded to drink too much and fall down
After lunch I went to inspect a slave-labor camp
And opened a new wing in my dungeon keep
Then I gave a feast for a lofty lama from Tibet
And he stayed so late I never got to sleep
So help me Buddha!

Wouldn't it be fun not to be wealthy
Wouldn't it be fun not to be great!
How I'd love dearly
To be a beggar merely
And not be bored to death living in state!
Wouldn't it be fun not to have always deadly diplomats for tea
Wouldn't it be fun to be nearly anyone
Except me, mixed-up me!

America Will Survive
Composer(s): Hank Williams Jr.
Performer(s): Hank Williams Jr.



People think it’s nearly the end of time
Cause we’re together and we’ve drawn the line
Our flag is up, the stock markets down
But we’re all united from the country to the town

We live back in the woods you see
Big city problems never bothered me
But the world has changed and so have I
And America can survive
America will survive

We can plow our fields all day long
We can catch catfish from dusk till dawn
Yea we have toughed it out a time or two
Ain’t to many things these boys and girls can’t do
We grow good ole tomatoes, we got hometown pride
And America can survive
America will survive

'Cause you can’t scare us out and you make us run
'Cause were them old boys that have freedom and fun
We say grace and we say ma’am
If they don’t like that, we don’t give a damn
We came from the West Virginia coal mines
The Rocky Mountains and the big city skylines
We can hit back and we’re gonna’ be fine
'Cause this country can survive
America will survive

I had a good friend in New York City
Never called me by my name, just hillbilly
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
And his taught him to be a good businessman
He used to send me pictures of the broadway nights
I’d send him some of granddaddy Williams homemade muscadine wine
He was lost like so many in the terrible strife
we’re all asking God, why oh why
A tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye
That’s an old slogan we’re gonna’ revive
Because America can survive
America will survive

'Cause you can’t scare us out, and you can’t make us run
we’re them boys and girls with freedom and fun
We say grace and we say ma’am
If they don’t like that, we give less than a damn
We’re from North California and South Alabam’
And all they’ve done is unite this whole land
There’s no more Yankees and Rebels this time
But one united people that stand behind
America can survive
America will survive 

Would You?

Composer(s): Nacio Herb Brown; Arthur Freed
Performer(s): Jeanette MacDonald



I've been reading such romantic stories
Tales of love that set my heart aflame
Pages that entrance, with a new romance
But each plot is really quite the same

He holds her in his arms
Would you, would you
He tells her of her charms
Would you, would you

They met as you and I
And they were only friends
But before
The story ends

He'll kiss her with a sigh
Would you, would you
If the boy were I
Would you, would you

And would you dare to say
Let's do the same as they
I would
Would you

(Instrumental Interlude)

He'll kiss her with a sigh
Would you, would you
If the boy were I
Would you, would you

And would you dare to say
Let's do the same as they
I would
Would you

Ink Pot

Put some love in your heart
like you put the ink in the inkpot
Learn it and you will enjoy it baby
to put the ink in the inkpot

Shu-bi-do-ah
shu-bi-do-ah

shu-bi-do-ah
shu-bi-do-ah

You can play with every thing
but you cannot play with your heart
fooling around make it mean
and then I'm feeling that we'll be apart

Put some love in your heart...

Your mama taught you how to pray
but once you will be a grown-up girl
but what you also have to learn
that is how to love somebody in this world

Put some love in your heart...

Would You Take Another Chance On Me
Composer(s): Jerry Foster; Bill Rice
Performer(s): Jerry Lee Lewis; Kenny Price



If I promise you to straighten up 
And put my life in order 
If I swear to you, woman, on bended knees 
I won't hurt you again 
If I become the kind of man 
That you want me to be 
Would you take another chance on me 

The good Lord knows I've done you wrong 
I've asked him to forgive me 
Deep inside I think he would, Darlin'  
If you could do the same 
If I could take back all the things 
That caused you misery 
Would you take another chance on me 

Would you take another chance on me 
I've paid for my mistakes 
Would you take another chance on me 
Or have I changed too late

Mmmmm....I've been a fool, woman, for hurting you 
But God can't you see I'm sorry 
If you were only mine again 
I'd make it up to you
But my past keeps blinding you 
If you could only see 
Would you take another chance on me?
 
Think about it, Darlin'

Swiss Miss
Composer(s): George Gershwin  Ira Gershwin
Performer(s): Fred Astaire & Adele Astaire



Up on the top of a snow-covered mountain
There lived an Alpine miss
And oh! What a sweet little miss was this
We mean this little Swiss miss
While down in the valley below-ho-ho
Lived a boy who loved her so-ho-ho
He loved her with all his might
He loved her day and night

And ev'ry night just to see this miss
He used to risk his scalp
For the house where she lived was away up high
And the poor guy didn't know how to fly
So he jumped from Alp to Alp
What a chump- to jump from Alp to Alp!

And then beneath her balcony
He used to stand around and try to make a hit with her
And he would yodel, "O-lay-o-lee!"
That's the Swiss idea of a melody
And oh! What a yodeling fool was he
He shook a wicked yodel

And one night as he stood there
The lights were very dim
While leaning out a bit too far across her balcony
She fell for him
He sat with his arms around her, until the night was gone
And here's the way they carried on

He said: "Dear I think you're just as sweet as you can be
You're like a cake of sweet Swiss chocolate to me"
She said: "Oh, my loving one, your talk I can't resist
I hope you're as steady as the Swiss watch ticking on your wrist"
He said: "How I yearn for you and burn for you 
I do! I do!
Oh, lady, oh, I swear it on my knees
My love for you is just as strong
As a piece of Switzer cheese"

By coincidence

Should I make a beeline

Faint right at your feet
Walk right up and ask you
If you want to take a chance on me
Or start a convesation

Protect you from the world outside
Show a lot of self restraint

Until you say you're really ready

Don't leave it too late
Said I need your loving
Need your loving
