    Just an Old Fashioned Love Song ((aka An Old Fashioned Love Song (by Three Dog Night) - 1971))
    Composer(s): Paul Williams
    First release by: Paul Williams - 1971
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Just an old-fashioned love song playin' on the radio
    And wrapped around the music is the sound
    Of someone promising they'll never go
    You swear you've heard it before
    As it slowly rambles on and on
    No need in bringin' `em back,
    `Cause they're never really gone

    Just an old-fashioned love song
    One I'm sure they wrote for you and me
    Just an old-fashioned love song
    Comin' down in 3-part harmony

    To weave our dreams upon and listen to each evening
    When the lights are low
    To underscore our love affair
    With tenderness and feeling that we've come to know
    You swear you've heard it before
    As it slowly rambles on and on and
    No need in bringin' `em back,
    `Cause they're never really gone

    Just an old-fashioned love song
    Comin' down in 3-part harmony
    Just an old-fashioned love song
    One I'm sure they wrote for you and me
    Just an old-fashioned love song
    Comin' down in 3-part harmony
    Just an old-fashioned love song
    One I'm sure they wrote for you and me

    To weave our dreams upon and listening to a song ...

    Composer(s): Burton Cummings; Domenic Troiano
    Performer(s): The Guess Who



    It was a Saturday night without a whole lot shakin'
    Ooh my ooh my I was bored
    I had my best duds on it was a chance worth takin'
    somehow I was still ignored

    Been too long since I been shy and lonely
    Ooh, but that's okay
    Need some gal to be my one and only
    Ooh

    I got a wink and a smile from a flashy filly
    Ooh my ooh my she looked grand
    She said "I like your style now don't go actin' silly"
    Ooh my ooh she held my hand

    Never thought that I could shake and grove it
    Now I'm a Dancin' Fool
    Dug my feet 'cause they could really move it
    Ooh

    She got the message across and me and her got kissin'
    Ooh my ooh my havin' fun
    I know that this is the thing that I been really missin'
    One more dance has just begun

    No more time for feelin' shy and lonely
    Now I'm a Dancin' Fool
    Found some gal to be my one and only
    Ooh I'm a Dancin' Fool

    Been too long since I been shy and lonely
    Now I'm a Dancin' Fool (I'm a dancin' fool I'm a dancer)

    An Old English Dream
    Composer(s): Gary Brooker - Keith Reid
    Performer(s): Procol Harum



    They say this fair city has ten thousand souls
    Some live in mansions
    And some live in holes
    Some eat from silver
    And some eat from gold
    Some sift through garbage
    And sleep in the cold

    I saw a great highway that stretched to the stars
    I saw a deep river all choked up with cars
    A babe in a cradle and a cat with the cream
    An old English church yard and an old English dream

    Once we had a country
    And thought it so fair
    If you look through the mirror
    You can still find it there
    But now our great country
    Is broken and torn
    And all of its promise
    And liberties worn

    I saw a great highway that stretched to the stars
    I saw a deep river all choked up with cars
    A babe in a cradle and a cat with the cream
    An old English church yard and an old English dream

    I saw a great plain in winter
    All covered in snow
    Ten thousand soldiers
    That marched to and fro
    I saw a broken down building
    With ten thousand doors
    But none of them open
    And none of them yours

    I saw a great highway that stretched to the stars
    I saw a deep river all choked up with cars
    A babe in a cradle and a cat with the cream
    An old English church yard and an old English dream

    Dancin'
    Composer(s): Jerry Leiber; Mike Stoller
    Performer(s): Perry Como



    Ho! the band stopped playin'
    An' the couples stopped swayin'
    But we kept on . . . dancin!

    The lights went on
    An' the crowd was gone
    But we kept on . . . dancin!

    The janitor said, "Please let me sweep the floor!"
    So, I hummed a tune an' we danced right . . .
    Thru the door!

    It started rainin'
    But we both were insane
    An' we kept right . . . on dancin'

    We looked a sight
    By the traffic light
    But we . . . kept on dancin'

    The signal was red so we just tapped our feet
    When the light turned green
    Well, we danced across the street!

    (Couples parked in cars were romancin')
    They were romancin'
    But we kept right in dancin!

    (Ba bum ba bum bum')
    Our clothes were drippin'
    An' we couldn't help slippin'
    But we kept right in dancin!

    Our feet were sore
    When we reached your door
    But we kept right in dancin!

    When I kissed ya goodnight
    My heart started dancin' too
    That's when I knew . . .
    That I would dance my whole life thru
    With only you . . .

    With only you . . .

    With only you . . .
    My whole life thru
    With only you . . .

    Es war so ein Tag wie jeder andere
    und doch mir schien daß er ganz anders war
    denn du und ich wir gingen durch den Frühling
    und ringsum war die Welt so wunderbar

    An jenem Tag mein Freund da haben wir gemeint
    die Zeit blieb stehn allein nur für uns zwei
    doch ehe wir nachgedacht und alles wahrgemacht
    da war der Tag für uns schon längst vorbei

    La, la...

    Und der Sommer kam ins Lamd gezogen
    und es war ein langer heißer Tag
    doch für mich ist er so schnell verflogen
    als ich mit dir im Grase lag


    An jenem Tag mein Freund da haben wir gemeint
    die Zeit blieb stehn allein nur für uns zwei
    doch ehe wir nachgedacht und alles wahrgemacht
    da war der Tag für uns schon längst vorbei

    La, la...

    Und es wurde Herbst licht sind die Bäume
    und mir blieb der Blumen welker Rest
    verweht sind mit dem Wind auch unsere Träume
    und keiner von uns beiden hielt sie fest

    An jenem Tag mein Freund da haben wir gemeint
    die Zeit blieb stehn allein nur für uns zwei
    doch ehe wir nachgedacht und alles wahrgemacht
    da war der Tag für uns schon längst vorbei

    La, la...

    Es war so ein Tag wie jeder andere
    und doch ich weiß es gibt ihn niemals mehr
    denn für alles was wir heut versäumen
    gibt es morgen keine Wiederkehr


    An jenem Tag mein Freund da haben wir gemeint
    die Zeit blieb stehn allein nur für uns zwei
    doch ehe wir nachgedacht und alles wahrgemacht
    da war die Zeit für uns schon längst vorbei

    La, la...

    Dancer With Bruised Knees
    Composer(s): Anna McGarrigle
    Performer(s): Kate & Anna McGarrigle



    When I first knew her she was a dancer
    She'd leap (confidently)
    Knowing that should she fall
    It would be into the arms of her partner
    She never failed to get a curtain call

    For years we had been one with the stars
    A Pas de Deux of reknown
    I'd leap and he'd catch me on the fly
    And gently he'd put me down

    The heights that I reached were dangerous
    And I saw my partner strain
    And felt when I had landed
    His strength was on the wane

    Back before my knees were blue
    Backs broke bending in a step for two

    For years we had been one with the stars
    A Pas de Deux of reknown
    I'd leap and he'd catch me on the fly
    But once I came crashing down

    Now I'm a weaver
    Wall-hangings if you please
    In everyone I feature
    A dancer with bruised knees

    Doop do.....

    Dans une taverne du vieux Londres
    Où se retrouvaient des étrangers
    Nos voix criblées de joie montaient de l'ombre
    Et nous écoutions nos cœurs chanter
    C'était le temps des fleurs
    On ignorait la peur
    Les lendemains avaient un goût de miel
    Ton bras prenait mon bras
    Ta voix suivait ma voix
    On était jeunes et l'on croyait au ciel
    La, la, la...
    On était jeunes et l'on croyait au ciel

    Et puis sont venus les jours de brume
    Avec des bruits étranges et des pleurs
    Combien j'ai passé de nuits sans lune
    À chercher la taverne dans mon cœur
    Tout comme au temps des fleurs
    Où l'on vivait sans peur
    Où chaque jour avait un goût de miel
    Ton bras prenait mon bras
    Ta voix suivait ma voix
    On était jeunes et l'on croyait au ciel
    La, la, la ....
    On était jeunes et l'on croyait au ciel

    Je m'imaginais chassant la brume
    Je croyais pouvoir remonter le temps
    Et je m'inventais des clairs de lune
    Où tous deux nous chantions comme avant
    C'était le temps des fleurs
    On ignorait la peur
    Les lendemains avaient un goût de miel
    Ton bras prenait mon bras
    Ta voix suivait ma voix
    On était jeunes et l'on croyait au ciel
    La, la, la ....
    On était jeunes et l'on croyait au ciel

    Et ce soir je suis devant la porte
    De la taverne où tu ne viendras plus
    Et la chanson que la nuit m'apporte
    Mon cœur déjà ne la connaît plus
    C'était le temps des fleurs
    On ignorait la peur
    Les lendemains avait un goût de miel
    Ton bras prenait mon bras
    Ta voix suivait ma voix
    On était jeunes et l'on croyait au ciel
    La la la...
    On était jeunes et l'on croyait au ciel

    Dance: Ten, Looks: Three
    Composer(s): Marvin Hamlisch; Edward Kleban
    Originally performed by: Pamela Blair & Cast
    Covered by various other artists



    Val:
    But after a while I caught on...
    I mean, I saw what they were hiring!
    I also swiped my dance card once after an audition
    and on a scale of one to ten, they gave me for dance: Ten, for looks: Three! Why?

    Dance: Ten; Looks: Three
    And I'm still on unemployment
    Dancing for my own enjoyment
    That ain't it, kid!
    That ain't it, kid!

    "Dance: Ten, Looks: Three"
    Is like to die!
    Left the theatre and
    Called the doctor
    For my appointment to buy...

    Tits and ass
    Bought myself a fancy pair
    Tightened up the derriere
    Did the nose with it
    All that goes with it

    Tits and ass!
    Had the bingo-bongos done
    Suddenly I'm getting National tours!
    Tits and ass won't get you jobs
    Unless they're yours!

    Didn't cost a fortune neither
    Didn't hurt my sex life either!

    Flat and sassy
    I would get the strays and losers
    Beggars really can't be choosers
    That ain't it, kid!
    That ain't it, kid!

    Fix the chassis
    "How do you do!"
    Life turned into an
    Endless medley of
    "Gee, it had to be you"
    Why?

    Tits and ass!
    Where the cupboard once was bare
    Now you knock and someone's there
    You have got 'em, hey
    Top to bottom, hey!

    It's a gas!
    Just a dash of silicone
    Shake your new maracas and your fine!
    Tits and ass can change your life
    They sure changed mine!

    Val:
    You're all looking at my tits now, aren't you?

    Sheila:
    They aren't that big

    Val:
    I heard that, you bitch
    I didn't want 'em like yours
    I wanted them in proportion

    Sheila:
    Well, you got what you paid for

    Connie:
    I wouldn't mind having just one of yours

    Val:
    Well go out and buy 'em

    Have it all done!
    Honey, take my word
    Grab a cab, c'mon
    See the wizard on
    Park and Seventy-Third
    For

    Tits and ass
    Orchestra and balcony
    What they want is whatcha see
    Keep the best of you
    Do all the rest of you

    Pits or class
    I have never seen it fail
    Debutante or chorus girl or wife

    Tits and ass
    Yes, tits and ass
    Have changed...
    My...
    Life...

    Once upon a time there was a tavern
    Where we used to raise a glass or two
    Remember how we laughed away the hours
    And dreamed of all the great things we would do

    Those were the days my friend
    We thought they'd never end
    We'd sing and dance forever and a day
    We'd live the life we choose
    We'd fight and never lose
    For we were young and sure to have our way
    La la la la...
    Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

    Then the busy years went rushing by us
    We lost our starry notions on the way
    If by chance I'd see you in the tavern
    We'd smile at one another and we'd say

    Those were the days my friend
    We thought they'd never end
    We'd sing and dance forever and a day
    We'd live the life we choose
    We'd fight and never lose
    For we were young and sure to have our way
    La la la la...
    Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

    Just tonight I stood before the tavern
    Nothing seemed the way it used to be
    In the glass I saw a strange reflection
    Was that lonely woman really me

    Those were the days my friend
    We thought they'd never end
    We'd sing and dance forever and a day
    We'd live the life we choose
    We'd fight and never lose
    For we were young and sure to have our way
    La la la la...
    Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

    Through the door there came familiar laughter
    I saw your face and heard you call my name
    Oh my friend we're older but no wiser
    For in our hearts the dreams are still the same

    Those were the days my friend
    We thought they'd never end
    We'd sing and dance forever and a day
    We'd live the life we choose
    We'd fight and never lose
    For we were young and sure to have our way
    La la la la...
    Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

    Standing In The Need Of Love
    Composer(s): Carl Perkins
    Performer(s): Carl Perkins



    It ain't my brother, ain't my sister
    But it's me, Oh Lord
    Standing in the need of love

    It ain't the Preacher, ain't the Deacon
    But it's me, Oh Lord
    Standing in the need of love

    Well, it's me (It's me)
    It's me, Oh Lord
    Standing in the need of love

    It's me (It's me)
    It's me, Oh Lord
    Standing in the need of love

    When I get to singin'
    Get to feelin' good
    Standing in the need of love

    Yeah, I could live it better
    If I only would
    Standing in the need of love

    Woh, it's me (It's me)
    It's me, Oh Lord
    Standing in the need of love

    It's me (It's me)
    It's me, Oh Lord
    Standing in the need of love

    Get it!

    Well, my ol' guitar makes me happy
    But I'm all alone
    Standing in the need of love

    When I get to pickin'
    It's the same old song
    Standing in the need of love

    Woh, it's me (It's me)
    It's me, Oh Lord
    Standing in the need of love

    I said it's me (It's me)
    It's me, Oh Lord
    I'm standing in the need of love

    Well, it's me, it's me
    It's me, Oh Lord
    And I'm standing in the need of love

    Nobody but me, yes me

    Dance, Gypsy, dance
    Though tears may flow
    Love's a game you played and lost
    Now you're left to count the cost
    Dance, Gypsy, dance
    On with the show
    Though your aching heart is breaking
    Dance, Gypsy, dance

    Gypsy campfires glowing `neath the stars
    Hearts beat to the throbbing of guitars
    But one heart is crying
    So her feet are flying

    Dance, Gypsy, dance
    Though tears may flow
    Love's a game you played and lost
    Now you're left to count the cost
    Dance, Gypsy, dance
    On with the show
    Though your aching heart is breaking
    Dance, Gypsy, dance

    An Irishman's Idea Of Love
    Composer(s): Allan Roberts - Doris Fisher
    Performer(s): The Happy Gang Orch.



    When a Frenchman is courting a mademoiselle
    He takes her to dinner at some fine hotel
    He spends all the salary he worked for that week
    And if he is lucky, he kisses her cheek

    But an Irishman's idea of love
    Is to meet the girl he's dreamin' of
    Compliment her eyes of blue
    And the divil if he doesn't mean it too

    Fills her full of a line of blarney
    That he learned in ole Killarney
    Gets the kiss so easily
    That cost the poor Frenchman his week's salary

    An Invitation To North America
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Sam Richards & Tish Stubbs



    There is many a family of late that has gone
    Away to New York, father, mother and son
    Let us likewise follow and make no delay
    For 'tis much cheaper living in North Americay

    The farmers in England sell there corn so dear
    They do what they can to starve the poor here
    They send it to France, which sure is not right
    To feed other nations that against us do fight

    Come all you bold Britons, wherever you be
    I would have you draw near and listen to me
    The times they get harder in England ev'ry day
    It is much better living in North Americay

    Why do we stay here for to be their slaves
    When in Nova Scotia we can do as we please
    For who'd work in England for ten pence a day
    When we can get four shillings in North Americay

    The landlords in England do raise the lands high
    It forces some farmers abroad for to fly
    If times grow no better, I'll venture to say
    Poor men had better go to North Americay

    Observe then good people what to you I've told
    What a plague is in England by short weight of gold
    With bad silver and halfpence, believe what I say
    There's nothing of this in North Americay

    The priests in England come into the field
    They tithe as they please, you dare not but yield
    This is no great hardship, you believe, I dare say
    But we'll have no taxes in North Americay

    There's many a farmer you very well know
    That went to New York but a few years ago
    Have bought land and houses; who now would here stay
    But go and make fortunes in North Americay

    Manufactures in England are grown very bad
    For weavers and combers no work's to be had
    But let's go abroad, I dare venture to say
    They'll find us employment in North Americay

    So here's a health to George our gracious king
    I hope none will take amiss the song that I sing
    Then lads and lasses now come away
    And ship yourselves to North Americay

    My grandpa, he's ninety five
    And he keeps on dancin', he's still alive
    My grandma, she's ninety two
    She loves to dance and sing some too
    I don't know but I've been told
    If you keep on dancing you'll never grow old

    {Refrain}

    Come on, darlin', put a pretty dress on
    We're gonna go out tonight
    Dance, dance, dance
    Dance, dance, dance
    Dance, dance, dance, all night long

    I'm a hard-workin' man, I'm a son of a gun
    I've been workin' all week in the noonday sun
    The wood's in the kitchen and the cow's in the barn
    I'm all cleaned up and my chores are all done
    Take my hand and come along
    Let's go out and have some fun

    {Refrain}

    Dance, dance, dance
    Dance, dance, dance
    Dance, dance, dance, all night long

    Come on, darlin', don't look that way
    Don't you know when you smile I've got to say
    You're my honey pumpkin lover, you're my heart's delight
    Don't you want to go out tonight
    You're such a pretty lady, you're such a sweet girl
    When you dance it brightens up my world

    An Innocent Man
    Composer(s): Billy Joel
    Performer(s): Billy Joel
    and multiple other artists



    Some people stay far away from the door
    If there's a chance of it opening up
    They hear a voice in the hall outside
    And hope that it just passes by

    Some people live with the fear of a touch
    And the anger of having been a fool
    They will not listen to anyone
    So nobody tells them a lie

    I know you're only protecting yourself
    I know you're thinking of somebody else
    Someone who hurt you
    But I'm not above
    Making up for the love
    You've been denying you could ever feel
    I'm not above doing anything
    To restore your faith if I can
    Some people see through the eyes of the old
    Before they ever get a look at the young
    I'm only willing to hear you cry
    Because I am an innocent man
    I am an innocent man
    Oh yes I am

    Some people say they will never believe
    Another promise they hear in the dark
    Because they only remember too well
    They heard somebody tell them before

    Some people sleep all alone every night
    Instead of taking a lover to bed
    Some people find that it's easier to hate
    Than to wait anymore

    I know you don't want to hear what I say
    I know you're gonna keep turning away
    But I've been there and if I can survive
    I can keep you alive
    I'm not above going through it again
    I'm not above being cool for a while
    If you're cruel to me I'll understand

    Some people run from a possible fight
    Some people figure they can never win
    And although this is a fight I can lose
    The accused is an innocent man
    I am an innocent man
    Oh yes I am
    An innocent man

    You know you only hurt yourself out of spite
    I guess you'd rather be a martyr tonight
    That's your decision
    But I'm not below
    Anybody I know
    If there's a chance of resurrecting a love
    I'm not above going back to the start
    To find out where the heartache began

    Some people hope for a miracle cure
    Some people just accept the world as it is
    But I'm not willing to lay down and die
    Because I am an innocent man

    I am an innocent man
    Oh yes I am
    An innocent man

    Je Bent Niet Hip
    Performer(s): Patricia Paay



    Je bent niet hip, je bent niet vlot
    Je ouwe fiets die is altijd kapot
    Je bent niet rijk, je bent niet knap
    Je drinkt geen bier maar tomatensap

    Je hebt een baan waarvan je zegt
    Hij is niet goed en hij is niet slecht
    Maar jij bent lief en reuze trouw
    Jij hoort bij mij en ik bij jou

    Ja, wie had dat ooit gedacht
    Hoe kan zoiets bestaan?
    Nee, dat had ik nooit verwacht
    Dat ik met jou zou gaan

    Ik vond je altijd reuze sloom
    Maar nu ben jij de man
    Waarvan ik elke nacht weer droom
    Al denk ik nu en dan

    Je bent niet hip, je bent niet vlot
    Je ouwe fiets die is altijd kapot
    Je bent niet rijk, je bent niet knap
    Je drinkt geen bier maar tomatensap

    Je hebt een baan waarvan je zegt
    Hij is niet goed en hij is niet slecht
    Maar jij bent lief en reuze trouw
    Jij hoort bij mij en ik bij jou

    'k Weet nog dat het zo begon
    't Was op een dag in maart
    Jij kwam, jij zag en overwon
    En ik was van de kaart

    Ik stond gewoon totaal perplex
    Want jij gaf mij een zoen
    En zei: "Meid jij hebt zoveel seks
    Ik kan er niets aan doen"

    Je bent niet hip, je bent niet vlot
    Je ouwe fiets die is altijd kapot
    Je bent niet rijk, je bent niet knap
    Je drinkt geen bier maar tomatensap

    Je hebt een baan waarvan je zegt
    Hij is niet goed en hij is niet slecht
    Maar jij bent lief en reuze trouw
    Jij hoort bij mij en ik bij jou

    Jalalala jalalala jalalalalalalalalala
    Lalalala lalalala lalalalalalala
    Lalalala lalalala…

    and multiple other artists



    An hour never passes but I think of you
    An hour never passes but I miss you too
    Every day from dawning till the moon rides low
    You’re beside me darling everywhere I go
    An hour never passes, the clock never chimes
    But I keep recalling those old happy times
    Without my prayer for you in each lonely sigh
    An hour never passes by

    Without my prayer for you in each lonely sigh
    An hour never passes by

    Dance With My Father
    Composer(s): Richard Marx; Luther Vandross
    Originally performed by: Luther Vandross
    Covered by various other artists



    Back when I was a child before life removed all the innocence
    My father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me and then
    Spin me around 'til I fell asleep
    Then up the stairs he would carry me
    And I knew for sure I was loved
    If I could get another chance, another walk, another dance with him
    I'd play a song that would never, ever end

    How I'd love, love, love
    To dance with my father again
    When I and my mother would disagree
    To get my way, I would run from her to him
    He'd make me laugh just to comfort me
    Then finally make me do just what my mama said
    Later that night when I was asleep
    He left a dollar under my sheet
    Never dreamed that he would be gone from me
    If I could steal one final glance, one final step, one final dance with him
    I'd play a song that would never, ever end

    'Cause I'd love, love, love
    To dance with my father again
    Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
    And I'd hear how my mother cried for him
    I pray for her even more than me
    I pray for her even more than me
    I know I'm praying for much too much
    But could you send back the only man she loved
    I know you don't do it usually
    But dear Lord she's dying
    To dance with my father again
    Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream
