La Belle Debbie Composer(s): Francis Cabrel Performer(s): Francis Cabrel
La belle Debbie debout d'un bond Au tout début me bouda Puis elle trouva de bon ton Que je lui dise vous comme à une diva J'ôtais ses beaux boutons d'habits Je mis un vieux CD d'ABBA Alors, elle s'enhardit Et Dieu soit loué s'amadoua
Elle voulu deux doigts de Bourbon "Merci ça finit mal quand je bois" Je me suis mis à faire le gibbon Elle se tordait comme le boa Je lui récitais ma leçon Doux comme un ourson venu pour ça Puis-je votre peau de bonbon L'effleurer comme une tumba?
Et j'ajoute pour être tout à fait juste Ces miroirs où elle se projette Ces rires auxquels elle est sujette Et ses jolies mains qui s'agitent Oh j'ajoute...
Je lui récitais du Rimbaud Elle disait peut-on tomber plus bas Elle borda ses yeux de charbon Pour me tendre un bâton de Cuba Les liqueurs, nous les avons bues Quand il n'est plus resté de tabac Elle m'avoua, je revis Désirez-vous que l'on se revoie?
Et j'ajoute pour être tout à fait juste Ces miroirs où elle se projette Ces rires auxquels elle est sujette Et ses jolies mains qui s'agitent
Et j'ajoute pour être tout à fait juste Ces moments salés où elle me laissa Ces secrets qu'elle me consacra Ces formes où je m'étais ancré Ces cris... Quand son mari entra
Don't Tease Me
Composer(s): Rudy Martinez
? & the Mysterians
You put me under your skin And I need you right now Told me before you'd never put me down But you lied to me Now you're runnin' around You got me under your skin And I need you right now
Girl, please don't tease me Girl, please don't tease me Girl, please don't tease me
You got me under your skin And I need you right now Told me before you'll never put me down But you lied to me Now you're runnin' around You got me under your skin And I need you right now
Girl, please don't tease me Girl, please don't tease me Girl, please don't tease me
You got me under your skin And I need you right now You told me once before you'd never put me down But you lied to me Now you're runnin' around You put me under your skin And I need you right now
Girl, please don't tease me now Girl, please don't tease me Said leave me alone

Et puis dans le clair matin Elle a pris le chemin Qui mène à Santa Filla! La Belle de Cadix n'a jamais eu d'amant! La Belle de Cadix est entrée au couvent Mais malgré son sourire et son air engageant La Belle de Cadix ne veut pas d'un amant! Chi-ca! Chi-ca! Chic! Ay! Ay! Ay! Chi-ca! Chi-ca! Chic! Ay! Ay! Ay! Chi-ca! Chi-ca! Chic! Ay! Ay!
La Beauté Du Diable ((Adapted from: A Mellow Melody (by Charlie Rich) - 1975)) Composer(s): Billy Sherrill - Charlie Rich - Claude Lemesle - Pierre Delanoë Performer(s): Joe Dassin - 1979
Toi qui a l'air d'un petit ange, d'une p'tite bête à bon Dieu Qui a les yeux de l'innocence, du moins à mes yeux Je sais qu'au fond de toi sommeille un vrai petit démon C'est vrai que la beauté du diable porte bien son nom
On t'imagine rougissante sortie du couvent Allons au bal de débutante aux bras d'un débutant On a envie de te donner l'amour sans confession C'est vrai que la beauté du diable porte bien ton nom
Lorsque je tend les mains Ne m'en veut pas si je m'adresse plutot à tes seins Le ciel est bien trop loin Et tes fruits défendus et nos jeux interdits Me font un joli paradis
Toi qui as l'air d'un petit ange avec tes cheveux blonds Pour qui un nouveau Michel-Ange perdrait la raison Jamais rien sur cette Terre ne peut m'en empêcher C'est vrai que la beauté du diable n'est pas un péché
Toi qui a l'air d'un petit ange, d'une p'tite bête à bon Dieu Qui a les yeux de l'innocence, du moins à mes yeux Je sais qu'au fond de toi sommeille un vrai petit démon C'est vrai que la beauté du diable porte bien son nom
Don't Talk To Him Composer(s): Cliff Richard - Bruce Welch Performer(s): Cliff Richard; Bachman Cummings
If some guy tells you I don't care And tells you lies while I'm not there Don't talk to him
And if he tells you I'm untrue And now and then what you must do Don't talk to him
And if he tells you I've been seen Walking round with Sue and Jean He's lying again Do anything that you want to But darling this I beg of you Don't talk to him
If you hear the words he has to say He'll break your heart Let your love for me prove strong while we are far apart
So just remember what I say And trust in me while I'm away For I'll be true And just remember my true love Is brighter than the moon above for only you And if this guy should try to say My love for you is only plainly a whim Just close your eyes and count to ten And think of me again But don't you talk to him
If you hear the words he has to say He'll break your heart Let your love for me prove strong while we are far apart
La Beauté Du Diable Composer(s): Françoise Hardy - Rodolphe Burger Performer(s): Françoise Hardy
Destination plus ou moins connue... porté ou non disparu? pas sûr... passé pas simple avenir exclu... la beauté du diable le rend identifiable entre tous... sa beauté du diable aveugle qui la regarde en face et malgré lui cloue sur place vous crucifie par sa présence... sans domicile histoires décousues... imprévisible ambigü... cur pur... vie dissolue mort violante prévue... la beauté du diable le rend inoubliable entre tous... sa beauté du diable entraîne qui la voit de trop près vers la folie à jamais vous démolit par son absence...
Don't Talk Now Composer(s): James Taylor Performer(s): James Taylor; Charlie Starr
Where I've been You don't know And what I've got Baby, it don't show Now, I won't try To teach you how Don't talk now
Don't talk roads Don't talk sand Don't talk dust Don't talk no man Don't talk rules Don't talk vows Don't talk now
I don't wanna hear the same old song And too many rights still make her wrong, baby I know she can't hurt me less by talking more She can't make good what was bad before
No, It's too late now for me to lie And I can't make a second try I just came on back baby got to say good - bye, good bye Don't talk now... Don't talk now
Don't Take Your Love From Me Composer(s): Henry Nemo Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
Tear a star from out the sky and the sky feels blue Tear a petal from the rose and the rose weeps too Take your heart away from mine and mine will surely break My life is yours to take, so please keep the spark awake
Would you take the wings from birds so that they cant fly? Would you take the oceans roar and leave just a sigh? All this, your heart wont let you do This is what I beg of you Dont take your love from me
All this, your heart wont let you do This is what I beg of you Dont take your love from me Dont take your love from me
La Baya Composer(s): Marcel Heurtebise - Henri Christiné Performer(s): Suzy Delair and multiple other artists
Un jeune officier de marine Un soir rencontra dans Pékin Une petite Chinoise divine Qu'on promenait en palanquin En l'apercevant la toute belle Arrêta bien vite ses porteurs "Mon gentil petit Français, dit-elle Veux-tu connaître le bonheur!"

Chin', Chin', Chin', Chin' Je n'suis pas d'la Chine Je suis née au quartier latin Et j'ai fait La danse serpentine Pendant six mois à Tabarin C'est là que j'ai appris mon petit numéro Oh! Oh! Oh! Timélou, lamélou, pan pan timéla Paddy lamélou, concodou la Baya! Timélou, lamélou, pan pan timéla Paddy lamélou, concodou la Baya!
Don't Take Your Guns To Town Composer(s): Johnny Cash Originally performed by: Johnny Cash Covered by various other artists
A young cowboy named Billy Joe Grew restless on the farm A boy filled with wanderlust Who really meant no harm He changed his clothes and shined his boots And combed his dark hair down And his mother cried as he walked out
Refrain: "Don't take your guns to town, son Leave your guns at home, Bill Don't take your guns to town"
He sang a song as on he rode His guns hung at his hips He rode into a cattle town A smile upon his lips He stopped and walked into a bar and laid his money down But his mother's words echoed again
Refrain: "Don't take your guns to town, son Leave your guns at home, Bill Don't take your guns to town"
He drank his first strong liquor then to calm his shaking hand And tried to tell himself at last he had become a man A dusty cowpoke at his side began to laugh him down And he heard again his mother's words
Refrain: "Don't take your guns to town, son Leave your guns at home, Bill Don't take your guns to town"
Bill was raged and Billy Joe reached for his gun to draw But the stranger drew his gun and fired before he even saw As Billy Joe fell to the floor the crowd all gathered 'round And wondered at his final words
Refrain: "Don't take your guns to town, son Leave your guns at home, Bill Don't take your guns to town"
Don't Take Me Alive
Composer(s): Walter Becker - Donald Fagen
Performer(s): Steely Dan
Agents of the law Luckless pedestrian I know you're out there With rage in your eyes and your megaphones Saying all is forgiven Mad Dog surrender How can I answer A man of my mind can do anything
Chorus: I'm a bookkeeper's son I don't want to shoot no one Well I crossed my old man back in Oregon Don't take me alive Got a case of dynamite I could hold out here all night Yes I crossed my old man back in Oregon Don't take me alive
Can you hear the evil crowd The lies and the laughter I hear my inside The mechanized hum of another world Where no sun is shining No red light flashing Here in this darkness I know what I've done I know all at once who I am
La Barca Composer(s): L. Beretta - Adriano Celentano - Vito Pallavicini - G. Santercole Performer(s): Adriano Celentano
Mattino di sole sulla barca sperduti nel mare io e lei la scema e' li' che si riposa io remo pensando ai fatti miei sarebbe il momento proprio giusto rovescio la barca e lei va giu' ma dopo da solo cosa faccio io senza di lei non vivo piu'

Don't Take It So Hard Composer(s): Mark Lindsay Performer(s): Paul Revere & The Raiders
I've tried to let you down so easy I'd like to still be just a friend We shared such memories together But all good things come to an end
You should not take it so hard You should not take it so hard You should not take it so hard You should not take it so hard You should not take it so hard You should not take it so hard
You wonder when you are going to see me I might just pass this way again Until then don't you wait up for me Cause now I'm getting in the wind Don't you remember what I told you from the start When people fall in love too much It can cause a broken heart that won't mend easy But if you just wait sometime I may come walking to you in the sunshine
La Baraka Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Giorgio Calabrese Performer(s): Charles Aznavour - 1974
La Baraka È quando tu stai sorridendo stretta a me La Baraka È solo io te sul leggero vento di incoscienza La Baraka È solo io che sono già nell'esistenza Ed ogni giorno se sei qua È il nostro amor la Baraka La Baraka È quando tu stai sorridendo stretta a me È solo io che sono già nell'esistenza Ed ogni giorno se sei qua È il nostro amor la Baraka Una felicità ad oltranza Nessuno mai conoscerà Se tocca a te aprire la danza E poi sarà quel che sarà La Baraka È quando tu stai sorridendo stretta a me La Baraka È io non ho sul leggero vento di incoscienza La Baraka È solo io e solo te nell'esistenza È notte e giorno se sei qua È il nostro amor la Baraka
Io non credevo troppo al caso Ed ecco che succede a me Arrivi tu all'improvviso E sono qui già legato a te La Baraka È quando tu stai sorridendo stretta a me La Baraka È io non ho sul leggero vento di incoscienza La Baraka È solo io e solo te nell'esistenza È notte e giorno se sei qua È il nostro amor la Baraka La Baraka
Don't Take Away The Music
Composer(s): Freddie Perren - Keni St. Lewis - C. Yarian - Fred T. Tavares
Performer(s): Tavares; The Eurobeats
Don't take away the music
It's the only thing I've got
It's my piece of the rock
I knew you were always there
You were my song
How am I suppossed to bear it
Now that you've gone
Would you separate the words
Memories from a sweet melody
Baby would you take away
The music from a symphony
Don't take away the music
It's the only thing i've got
It's my piece of the rock
Don't take away the music
Everything else is gone
Don't strip my world of it's song
Everytime you whispered low
My heart would sing
Now it's silent like the phone
The phone that never rings
Memories of love's refrain
Memories keep haunting me
What are we doing to the song we sang
What happend to our sweet harmony
Don't take away the music
It's the only thing I've got
It's my piece of the rock
Don't take away the music
Everything else is gone
Don't strip my world of it's song
Don't take my music (uh, uh, uh)
Don't take my music (uh, uh, uh)
Don't take my music (uh, uh, uh)
Don't take my music (uh, uh, uh)

La baraka C'est quand tu es entre mes bras, que tu souris La baraka C'est notre vie que l'on brûle avec insouciance La baraka C'est rien que toi et rien que moi dans l'existence Et nuit et jour quand tu es là C'est notre amour, la baraka

Nul ne connaît son jour de chance Car le destin, seul secret Ouvre le bal, mène la danse Pour un jour, une heure ou jamais
La baraka C'est quand tu es entre mes bras, que tu souris La baraka C'est notre vie que l'on brûle avec insouciance La baraka C'est rien que toi et rien que moi dans l'existence Et nuit et jour quand tu es là C'est notre amour, la baraka
Moi j'y crois sans trop y croire Quand tout à coup ça m'est revenu Sans s'annoncer, sans crier gare Quand soudain tu m'es apparue
La baraka C'est quand tu es entre mes bras, que tu souris La baraka C'est notre vie que l'on brûle avec insouciance La baraka C'est rien que toi et rien que moi dans l'existence Et nuit et jour quand tu es là C'est notre amour, la baraka
