    Goin’ Back
    Composer(s): Gerry Goffin - Carole King
    Performer(s): Dusty Springfield



    I think I’m goin’ back
    To the things
    I learned so well
    In my youth

    I think I’m returning to
    Those days
    When I was young enough
    To know the truth

    Now there are no games
    To only pass the time
    No more colouring books
    No christmas bells to chime

    But thinking young
    And growing older
    Is no sin
    And I can play
    The game of life to win

    I can recall the time
    When I wasn’t ashamed
    To reach out to a friend
    And now I think I’ve got
    A lot more than
    A skipping rope to lend

    Now there’s more to do
    Than watch my sailboat glide
    And everyday can be
    My magic carpet ride
    And I can play hide and seek with my fears
    And live my days instead of counting my years

    Let everyone debate the true reality
    I’d rather see the world the way it used to be
    A little bit of freedom’s
    All we lack
    So catch me if you can
    I’m goin’ back

    Crossin' the highway late last night
    He shoulda looked left and he shoulda looked right
    He didn't see the station wagon car
    The skunk got squashed and there you are!

    You got yer
    Dead skunk in the middle of the road
    Dead skunk in the middle of the road
    You got yer dead skunk in the middle of the road
    Stinkin' to high Heaven!

    Take a whiff on me, that ain't no rose!
    Roll up yer window and hold yer nose
    You don't have to look and you don't have to see
    'Cause you can feel it in your olfactory

    You got yer
    Dead skunk in the middle of the road
    Dead skunk in the middle of the road
    You got yer dead skunk in the middle of the road
    Stinkin' to high Heaven!

    Yeah you got yer dead cat and you got yer dead dog
    On a moonlight night you got yer dead toad frog
    Got yer dead rabbit and yer dead raccoon
    The blood and the guts they're gonna make you swoon!
    You got yer
    Dead skunk in the middle of the road
    Dead skunk in the middle of the road
    You got yer dead skunk in the middle of the road
    Stinkin' to high Heaven!

    C'mon stink!

    You got it!
    It's dead, it's in the middle
    Dead skunk in the middle!
    Dead skunk in the middle of the road
    Stinkin' to high heaven!
    All over the road, technicolor man!
    Oh, you got pollution
    It's dead, it's in the middle
    And it's stinkin' to high, high Heaven!

    Another Hit And Run
    Composer(s): Joe Elliott - Rick Savage
    Performer(s): Def Leppard



    Union Jack is back with a hole in his head
    He's gettin' badly burned every time
    He's laughin' at me and dancin' on my sneakers
    And his sixties songs are blowin' up my speakers

    I say you got no respect
    Respect for authority
    You're just playing your dirty tricks
    And then come cryin' to me

    Hit and run, hit and run
    It's just a hit and run
    Another hit and run

    The bulldog lost his bite and his breath has gone bad
    And the whole damn world is really laughin' mad

    I say you got no respect
    Respect for authority
    You're just playing your dirty tricks
    And then come cryin' to me

    Hit and run, hit and run
    It's just a hit and run
    Another hit and run

    Hit it!!
    Oh bring it down
    Oh you bring it down

    I say you ain't got no respect
    I say you ain't got no respect
    No you ain't got no respect
    And you hit me when I'm down

    Hit and run, hit and run
    It's just another hit and run
    I said it's just another hit and run

    Oh yeah, hit and run
    Oh yeah, hit and run
    Oh yeah, hit and run
    Oh yeah, hit and run
    Oh yeah, hit and run
    It's just another hit and run
    Hit and run

    Dead Presidents Composer(s): Billy "The Kid" Emerson - Willie Dixon First release by: Little Walter - 1964 Covered by multiple other artists



    Them dead presidents
    Them dead presidents
    Well I ain't broke but I'm badly bent
    Everybody loves them dead presidents

    A little bit of Lincoln can't park the car
    Washington he can't go too far
    Jefferson is good, played the track
    If you think you're gonna bring some big bitch back

    Them dead presidents...

    Hamilton on a ten can get you straight
    But Jackson on a twenty is really great
    And if you're talkin about a poor man's friend
    Grant will get you out of whatever you're in

    Them dead presidents...

    A hundred dollar Franklin is really sweet
    A five hundred McKinley is the one for me
    If I get a Cleveland I'm really set
    A thousand dollar Cleveland is hard to get

    Them dead presidents...

    Another Hand Shakin' Goodbye
    Composer(s): Dallas Frazier
    Performer(s): Jerry Lee Lewis



    No matter who I'm dreaming with
    Honey you start talking in my sleep
    Then I wake up and start making up
    A lie while you sleep
    Like an old time friend I squeeze her hand
    And I walk away unsatisfied
    Another Try
    Another Cry
    Another Hand Shakin' Goodbye

    I laughed a lot with Mary Ann
    I cried with Melody
    And Rose Marie was more than just a little close to Jerry Lee
    I can't count the hearts I've stepped on
    Because of loving you
    Another Try
    Another Cry
    Another Hand Shakin' Goodbye

    I laughed a lot with Mary Ann
    I cried with Melody
    Rose Marie was more than just a little close to Jerry Lee
    Lord I can't count the hearts I've stepped on
    Because of loving her
    Another Try
    Another Cry
    Another Hand Shakin' Goodbye
    Another Try
    Another Cry
    Another Hand Shakin' Goodbye
    Have Mercy Baby ...

    Dead Man's Curve Composer(s): Jan Berry - Roger Christian - Artie Kornfeld - Brian Wilson First release by: Jan & Dean - 1963 Covered by multiple other artists



    I was cruisin' in my Stingray late one night
    When an XKE pulled up on the right
    He rolled down the window of his shiny new Jag
    And challenged me then and there to a drag
    I said "You're on buddy -- my mill's running fine
    Let's come off the line now at Sunset and Vine
    But I'll go you one better, if you've got the nerve
    Let's race all the way -- to Dead Man's Curve"
    (Dead Man's Curve) is no place to play
    (Dead Man's Curve) you'd best keep away
    (Dead Man's Curve) I can hear 'em say
    "Won't come back from Dead Man's Curve"
    The street was deserted late Friday night
    We were buggin' each other while we sat out the light
    We both popped the clutch when the light turned green
    You shoulda heard the whine from my screamin' machine!
    I flew past La Brea, Schwab's and Crescent Heights
    And all the Jag could see were my six taillights
    He passed me at Doheny then I started to swerve
    But I pulled her out and there we were - at Dead Man's Curve
    (Dead Man's Curve) is no place to play
    (Dead Man's Curve...)
    "Well, the last thing I remember, Doc
    I started to swerve
    And then I saw the Jag slide into the curve
    I know I'll never forget that horrible sight
    I guess I found out for myself that everyone was right"
    Won't come back from Dead Man's Curve...
    (Dead Man's Curve) is no place to play
    (Dead Man's Curve) you'd best keep away
    (Dead Man's Curve) I can hear 'em say
    "Won't come back from Dead Man's Curve"
    (Dead Man's Curve) is no place to play
    (Dead Man's Curve) you'd best keep away
    (Dead Man's Curve) I can hear 'em say
    "Won't come back from Dead Man's Curve"

    Another Girl
    Composer(s): John Lennon - Paul McCartney
    First recording/First release by: The Beatles - 1965



    For I have got another girl, another girl

    You're making me say that I've got nobody but you
    But as from today well I've got somebody that's new
    I ain't no fool and I don't take what I don't want
    For I have got another girl, another girl

    She's sweeter that all the girls and I've met quite a few
    Nobody in all the world can do what she can do
    And so I'm telling you this time you'd better stop
    For I have got another girl

    Another girl who will love me till the end
    Through thick and thin she will always be my friend

    I don't wanna say that I've been unhappy with you
    But as from today, well I've seen somebody that's new
    I ain't no fool and I don't take what I don't want
    For I have got another girl

    Another girl who will love me till the end
    Through thick and thin she will always be my friend

    For I have got another girl

    Another girl who will love me till the end
    Through thick and thin she will always be my friend

    For I have got another girl

    Dead Giveaway Composer(s): Joey Gallo - Leon F. Sylvers III - Marquis Dair Performer(s): Shalamar



    How long you gonna carry on
    This one on one charade
    Let's don't and then say we did
    That's the game you like to play

    We've been through this so many times
    The end results always the same
    I always end up complaining
    When I've got myself to blame

    You're just a dead giveaway
    You'd think I'd learn to handle this by now
    You're just a dead giveaway

    Girl you can't deny it
    (Even though you try)
    You keep trying to hide it
    (Baby we know why)

    I get a call about 2am
    Saying you don't want to be alone
    Now I'm tired and half asleep
    But emotions are just a little too strong

    I figure that I'd call your bluff
    Cause you want me to come on by
    Girl you know it's your love I've always wanted
    And this time I won't be denied

    Cause you're a dead giveaway
    Girl you want me like I want you
    A dead giveaway

    You're scared but you won't admit it
    (Even though you try)
    But tonight you're committed
    (Baby we know why)

    Cause you're just a dead giveaway

    You're not that naive girl
    (I'm finding out)
    Is playing deceiver
    (What you're all about)

    Well now that you're serious
    It's time to take off that disguise
    You want more that mental stimulation
    I can see it in your eyes

    For years I've been your analyst
    I've been as patient as I've been kind
    For years you've played off believing
    That I loved you for only your mind

    'Cause you're a dead giveaway

    I can tell by the look in your eye
    That you're a dead giveaway

    I'm finding out
    What you're all about

    You're just a dead giveaway

    Another Door
    Composer(s): Carly Simon
    Performer(s): Carly Simon



    Some destination
    A footstep in the sand
    Some indication
    A truth to understand
    I'm going hunting
    To find it if I can
    But it might be just an arrow
    To still some other plan

    Hidden meanings and love's strange ways
    Keep me looking for more and more
    But all I find is that behind
    Each new door is another door

    Time's printed pages
    Words you won't forget
    go out and try to live them
    you'll be an angel yet
    I'm going hunting
    I think I'll win the bet
    But it might end up winning me sorrow
    And leaving my soul in debt

    Hidden meanings and love's strange ways
    Keep me looking for more and more
    But all I find is that behind
    Each new door is another door

    Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards
    First release by: The Rolling Stones - 1971
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Well, when you're sitting there
    In your silk upholstered chair
    Talking to some rich folks that you know
    Well I hope you won't see me
    In my ragged company
    You know I could never be alone

    Take me down little Susie, take me down
    I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
    And you can send me dead flowers every morning
    Send me dead flowers by the mail
    Send me dead flowers to my wedding
    And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

    Well, when you're sitting back
    In your rose pink Cadillac
    Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day
    I'll be in my basement room
    With a needle and a spoon
    And another girl to take my pain away

    Take me down little Susie, take me down
    I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
    And you can send me dead flowers every morning
    Send me dead flowers by the mail
    Send me dead flowers to my wedding
    And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

    Take me down little Susie, take me down
    I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
    And you can send me dead flowers every morning
    Send me dead flowers by the US mail
    Say it with dead flowers at my wedding
    And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
    No I won't forget to put roses on your grave

    Another Deal Goes Down
    Composer(s): Will Jennings - Steve Winwood
    Performer(s): Steve Winwood



    Midnight comes and the devil's loose
    What you want? He's got everything there
    What you've got he'll take
    And leave you in the cold

    One more soul drowns, another deal goes down
    The night is full of danger, another deal goes down

    On the street, the refugees
    From a war that was lost in the heart
    No one wants to see them
    And the fire is burning slow

    Tell me what you're searching for, will you, sister?
    Emptiness inside, you will never fill it up with another thrill

    Money's spent, all the words are said
    Nothing helps, streets are falling apart
    Through the night they're burning and the devil's on a roll

    Dead End Street Composer(s): Ray Davies First release by: The Kinks - 1966



    There's a crack up in the ceiling
    And the kitchen sink is leaking
    Out of work and got no money
    A Sunday joint of bread and honey

    What are we living for?
    Two-roomed apartment on the second floor
    No money coming in
    The rent collector's knocking, trying to get in

    We are strictly second class
    We don't understand
    (Dead end!)
    Why we should be on dead end street
    (Dead end!)
    People are living on dead end street
    (Dead end!)
    Gonna die on dead end street

    Dead end street (yeah)
    Dead end street (yeah)

    On a cold and frosty morning
    Wipe my eyes and stop me yawning
    And my feet are nearly frozen
    Boil the tea and put some toast on

    What are we living for?
    Two-roomed apartment on the second floor
    No chance to emigrate
    I'm deep in debt and now it's much too late

    We both want to work so hard
    We can't get the chance
    (Dead end!)
    People live on dead end street
    (Dead end!)
    People are dying on dead end street
    (Dead end!)
    Gonna die on dead end street

    Dead end street (yeah)
    Dead end street (yeah)

    (Dead end!)
    People live on dead end street
    (Dead end!)
    People are dying on dead end street
    (Dead end!)
    Gonna die on dead end street

    Dead end street (yeah)
    Dead end street (yeah)
    Dead end street (yeah)
    Head to my feet (yeah)
    Dead end street (yeah)
    Dead end street (yeah)
    Dead end street (yeah)
    How's it feel? (yeah)
    How's it feel? (yeah)
    Dead end street (yeah)
    Dead end street (yeah)

    I just couldn't breath
    The air was too thin up there
    I wanted to leave but nobody seemed to care
    Then you came into my life
    Brought me hope so I could see my way
    And now my life's changed in so many ways
    I've been fooling myself, thinking that I.....could make it all by myself
    That's living a lie
    Then you came into my life
    Picked me up when I thought I was lost
    And now I'll keep you, no matter what the cost

    I won't make it home
    I've already been shown
    I won't see another day or it's gone

    I'm pushin' hard 'cause I'm so afraid of dyin'
    I've got to make it home to see her one more time
    Mistakes I've made will follow me home
    They won't be paid till I'm dead and gone
    Till I'm dead and gone
    Till I'm ...............dead and gone

    Another Day, Another Town
    Composer(s): Jim Croce
    Performer(s): Jim & Ingrid Croce



    My dusty feet have kicked the stones
    Between a thousand railroad ties
    From Boston down to New Orleans
    I left the girls a cryin'
    But I've still got some ramblin' in me
    Got some miles left on my shoes
    And before I take a job again
    I'll have to be low-down
    Cryin' the blues
    So it's goodbye, baby, the whistle is a blowin'
    If I miss the train I'll have to stay around
    But as long as those railroad tracks go on unending
    I'll be off to another day in another town

    You say you'd like to ramble with me
    This ain't no life for a girl
    Too many people out to get you in a hobo's world
    And it gets mighty cold when you're on the road
    'Cause a boxcar never was a home
    But you could join me if you want
    I'm gettin' mighty tired of bein' alone
    So it's goodbye, baby, the whistle is a blowin'
    If we miss the train we'll have to stay around
    But as long as those railroad tracks go on unending
    We'll be off to another day in another town

    But as long as those railroad tracks go on unending
    We'll be off to another day in another town
    We'll be off to another day in another town

    Six days of runnin'
    I've been trying to make it home
    And they pursue me till they get back what I stole
    Mistakes I've made will follow me home
    They won't be paid till I'm dead and gone

    I know they're closin' in
    I feel them close behind
    I just can't shake 'em,
    It's as if they knew my mind
    Mistakes I've made will follow me home
    They won't be paid till I'm dead and gone

    I won't make it home
    I've already been shown
    I won't see another day or it's gone

    I'm pushin' hard 'cause I'm so afraid of dyin'
    I've got to make it home to see her one more time
    Mistakes I've made will follow me home
    They won't be paid till I'm dead and gone
    Till I'm dead and gone
    Till I'm ...............dead and gone

    I fell in this hole
    Nothing but darkness there
    I lost all control believing I'd die there
    Then you came into my life
    Picked me up when I thought I was lost
    And now I'll keep you, no matter what the cost

    I just couldn't breath
    The air was too thin up there
    I wanted to leave but nobody seemed to care
    Then you came into my life
    Brought me hope so I could see my way
    And now my life's changed in so many ways
    I've been fooling myself, thinking that I.....could make it all by myself
    That's living a lie
    Then you came into my life
    Picked me up when I thought I was lost
    And now I'll keep you, no matter what the cost

    I won't make it home
    I've already been shown
    I won't see another day or it's gone

    I'm pushin' hard 'cause I'm so afraid of dyin'
    I've got to make it home to see her one more time
    Mistakes I've made will follow me home
    They won't be paid till I'm dead and gone
    Till I'm dead and gone
    Till I'm ...............dead and gone

    Another Day In Paradise
    Composer(s): Phil Collins
    First release by: Phil Collins - 1989
    Covered by multiple other artists



    She calls out to the man on the street
    "Sir, can you help me?
    It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep
    Is there somewhere you can tell me?"

    He walks on, doesn't look back
    He pretends he can't hear her
    Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
    Seems embarrassed to be there

    Oh think twice, it's another day for
    You and me in paradise
    Oh think twice, it's just another day for you
    You and me in paradise

    She calls out to the man on the street
    He can see she's been crying
    She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
    Can't walk but she's trying

    Oh think twice ...

    Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
    Oh lord, there must be something you can say

    You can tell from the lines on her face
    You can see that she's been there
    Probably been moved on from every place
    'Cos she didn't fit in there

    Oh think twice ...

    Dead And Gone
    Composer(s): Joe Gibson
    Performer(s): Del Reeves



    Where are the flowers that bloom in the spring
    Where is the song that the birds used to sing
    Oh, where is the happiness that they used to bring
    Dead and gone, dead and gone

    Tall handsome stranger in June wed my troth
    Everyone heard me when I made the oath
    If I couldn't have her, then I'd see them both
    Dead and gone, dead and gone

    Lifeless and still on the ground there they lay
    What cruel fate made me find them that day
    That big old black hearse came and hauled them away
    Dead and gone, dead and gone

    Soon they will take me away from my cell
    Then will my spirit leave this earthly shell
    Though God knows I'm innocent, but who can I tell
    Dead and gone, dead and gone
    Dead and gone, dead and gone

    Another Day
    Composer(s): Ron Nasty
    Performer(s): The Rutles



    At times like these when enemies
    Can number more than friends
    A friend indeed is what I need
    Not someone who pretends

    I'm on my way
    I cannot stay
    Another day

    You're such a pain
    Must I explain my every meaning to you
    It's such a drag the way you nag at me
    And make me feel blue

    I'm on my way
    I cannot stay
    Another day

    You're so pusillanimous, oh yeah
    Nature's calling and I must go there

    A glass of wine with Gertude Stein
    I know I'll never share
    But I don't mind
    That's just the kind of cross each man must bear

    I'm on my way
    I cannot stay
    Another day

    You're so pusillanimous, oh yeah
    Nature's calling and I must go there

    Another day, I know they say
    That all the world's a stage
    I'll play the fool, but as a rule
    I'd rather act my age

    I'm on my way
    I cannot stay
    Another day

    Deacon Blues Composer(s): Walter Becker - Donald Fagen First release by: Steely Dan - 1977 Covered by multiple other artists



    This is the day of the expanding man
    That shape is my shade
    There where I used to stand
    It seems like only yesterday
    I gazed through the glass
    At ramblers, wild gamblers
    That's all in the past

    You call me a fool
    You say it's a crazy scheme
    This one's for real
    I already bought the dream
    So useless to ask me why
    Throw a kiss and say goodbye
    I'll make it this time
    I'm ready to cross that fine line

    I'll learn to work the saxaphone
    I play just what I feel
    Drink Scotch whiskey all night long
    And die behind the wheel
    They got a name for the winners in the world
    And I want a name when I lose
    They call Alabama the Crimson Tide
    Call me Deacon Blues

    My back to the wall
    A victim of laughing chance
    This is for me
    The essence of true romance
    Sharing the things we know and love
    With those of my kind
    Libations
    Sensations
    That stagger the mind

    I crawl like a viper
    Through these suburban streets
    Make love to these women
    Languid and bittersweet
    I'll rise when the sun goes down
    Cover every game in town
    A world of my own
    I'll make it my home sweet home

    (refrain)
    This is the night of the expanding man
    I take one last drag
    As I approach the stand
    I cried when I wrote this song
    Sue me if I play too long
    This brother is free
    I'll be what I want to be

    Another Day
    Composer(s): Linda McCartney - Paul McCartney
    First release by: Paul McCartney - 1971



    Every Day She Takes A Morning Bath
    She Wets Her Hair
    Wraps A Towel Around Her
    As She's Heading For The Bedroom Chair
    It's Just Another Day

    Slipping Into Stockings
    Stepping Into Shoes
    Dipping In The Pocket Of Her Raincoat
    Ah, It's Just Another Day

    At The Office Where The Papers Grow She Takes A Break
    Drinks Another Coffee
    And She Finds It Hard To Stay Awake

    It's Just Another Day
    Du Du Du Du Du
    It's Just Another Day
    Du Du Du Du Du
    It's Just Another Day

    Ay
    So Sad, So Sad
    Sometimes She Feels So Sad
    Alone In Her Apartment She'd Dwell
    Till The Man Of Her Dreams Comes To Break The Spell

    Ah, Stay, Don't Stand Around
    And He Comes And He Stays
    But He Leaves The Next Day
    So Sad
    Sometimes She Feels So Sad

    As She Posts Another Letter To The Sound Of Five
    People Gather 'Round Her
    And She Finds It Hard To Stay Alive

    It's Just Another Day
    Du Du Du Du Du
    It's Just Another Day
    Du Du Du Du Du
    It's Just Another Day

    Ay
    So Sad, So Sad
    Sometimes She Feels So Sad
    Alone In Her Apartment She'd Dwell
    Till The Man Of Her Dreams Comes To Break The Spell

    Ah, Stay, Don't Stand Around
    And He Comes And He Stays
    But He Leaves The Next Day
    So Sad
    Sometimes She Feels So Sad

    De Zwemmer Composer(s): Boudewijn de Groot - Ruud Engelander First release by: Boudewijn de Groot - 1980



    Een zwemmer zwemt, hij zwemt in zee
    Hij zwemt weg van het strand
    Maar neemt bepaalde beelden met zich mee
    Van wat hij achterliet op het land

    Hij zwemt en denkt niet aan later
    Hij heeft geen last van angst of aarzeling
    Boven hem lucht, onder hem water
    Een zwemmer is een enkeling

    Hij baant zich een weg door het water
    Hij is al flink op weg naar Engeland
    Achter zich hoort hij geschater
    Iemand die achterbleef op het strand

    Wat meegaat, dat laat hij ook achter
    Wat in de war van een herinnering
    Kijkt hij eens om en zwemt wat zachter
    Verdriet is een vertragend ding

    De kust is een vage belofte
    Het koude water de verzekering
    Dat hij alles waarin hij geloofde
    Niet zonder reden door iets nieuws verving

    Een zwemmer zwemt, hij zwemt in zee
    Hij zwemt weg van het strand
    Maar neemt bepaalde beelden met zich mee
    Van wat hij achterliet op het land
