Don't need no palace paved with gold
Don't need more cash than banks can hold
When I get to feelin' a feelin'
For something there ain't too much of
My sweet li'l darlin' gives me her love

Don't catch me chasin' round at night
I'm not impressed by glamour sights
Li'l darlin' may not be as pretty
As some other gals you can see
But my li'l darlin' only loves me

Bye Bye Baby

Performer(s): Marilyn Monroe & Jane Russell



Jane:
Bye, bye, baby
Remember you're my baby
When they give you the eye
Although I know that you care
Won't you write and declare
That though on the loose
You are still on the square

I'll be gloomy
But send that rainbow to me
Then my shadows will fly
Though you'll be gone for a while
I know that I'll be smilin'
With my baby by and by, and by
With my baby by and by

(In the sweet by and by)
(Bye, bye, baby, bye, bye, baby, bye, bye)
(We will meet on the beautiful shore)
(Bye, bye pretty baby)
(You better remember you're my baby)

Then my shadows will fly
Though you'll be gone for awhile
I know that I'll be smiling
With my baby by and by
Jane:
And by
With my baby, by and by

Marilyn:
I'll be in my room alone
Every post meridian
And I'll be with my diary
And that book by Mister Gideon

Bye, bye, baby
Remember you're my baby
When they give you the eye
And just to show that I care
I will write and declare
That I'm on the loose
But I'll stay on the square

I'll be lonely
But even though I'm lonely
There'll be no other guy
Though I'll be gone for a while
I know that I'll be smiling
With my baby by and by, and by
With my baby, by and by

(I'll be gloomy)
(But send that rainbow to me)
(Then my shadows will fly)
(Though you'll be gone for a while)
(I know that I'll be smiling)
(With my baby bye and bye)

You are still on the square

All:
I'll be gloomy
But send that rainbow to me
Then my shadows will fly
Though you'll be gone for a while
I know that I'll be smiling
With my baby bye and bye
With my wonderful baby
By and by
(Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye)

Matrimonial Stomp
Composer(s): Gene de Paul - Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): André Previn; Shelly Manne; Percy Faith



Dearly beloved
we is gathered her today He's Startin' To
Dearly Beloved
To put an unfortunate, muzzuble critter away 
Better' He Wuz Hung First

Remember poor Adam who got married and so it began
That mizzuble race of creatures known as the married man 
Married Man

Then think about Sampson who was Israel's strongest male 
The Strongest
Till little Delilah went and give him a pony-tail 
"Pony-Tail"

State yo objections
O' forever hold yo' peace, He's Tellin' You!
State Your Objections
You's singin' a genuine 
Iron-clad, permanent lease 
Never No Escape Clause

Don't let me influence you in say'in those fatal words 
Fatal Words!
Just let me remind you, getting married is for the birds 
For The Birds!

You gets up at the crack of dawn 
That's Right!
Slops the hogs and y' mows the lawn 
Poor Soul!
Saws the wood and reforms the chores, Unn Hunnh!
While the rainy and wet out doors "A-Chew"
You comes home to familiar scenes, Ah, Yes!
And a plate of familiar beans, "Oh, No"!
There's twenty-two screamin' kids, All Mine?
Makin' both of you flip yo' lids, What Else?
You is jumpin' out of your skin, Your Nerves!
Then yo' mother-in-law moves in, For Good?
There's no place to rest yo' head, No Sir!
'Cause there's other folks in yo' bed Unknowns!
You has got to escape the noise Fat Chance!
So you has a drink with the boys 'Bout Time!
You proceeds to the Old Brass Rail, Your Check!
The police man throws you in jail, No Dough!
You can't get a cent from your wife
They incarcerate you for life

Now, if you still wants this little gal as yo' lawful mate
By the powers invested, I pronounce you man and ... Wait!

Bye Bye Baby
Composer(s): M. Mallory; E. Vartan
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday & Sylvie Vartan



Elle s'appelle Sylvie Vartan
Et lui Johnny Hallyday

Bye bye baby
Bye bye honey
J'abandonne, je pardonne
Mais je fuis

Je pars sans laisser de traces
Qui voudra prendra ma place

Cette chanson a été conçue, écrite, enregistrée, spécialement pour vous
Ça m'étonnerait que vous puissiez l'entendre un jour ailleurs
Je sais que beaucoup d'entre vous nous connaissent
Je pense que vous nous connaissez mal
Alors, on va commencer pas essayer de se connaître un peu mieux
Par exemple, Sylvie va vous parler de la mode, moi je vais vous parler des motos
On va parler un petit peu de notre vie

Sylvie et la mode

Hé bien pour moi cet été la mode ce sera un pantalon, en l'occurrence un blue jean
Parce que c'est la tenue idéale pour voyager, pour travailler 
pour se déplacer, pour être à l'aise
Et puis également une jupe longue en liberty
C'est-à-dire, c'est un tissu anglais qui a des petites fleurs et qui est très joli

Johnny et la moto, toujours la moto, rien que la moto

Y a plusieurs personnes que j'ai rencontrées dans la rue qui m'ont demandé
si je faisais ma tournée d'été en moto comme l'année dernière
Hé bien, je ne pense pas car l'année dernière c'était dans un cirque
On ne faisait jamais plus de quatre-vingts kilomètres par jour
Alors que cette année, comme ce sont exclusivement des galas et que on va
en moyenne, faire entre deux cents et six cent kilomètres, c'est un peu fatiguant
et un peu long de le faire en moto, surtout quand on chante le soir

Pourquoi j'aime la moto. On me l'a également demandé souvent
Parce que je considère que la voiture est un objet de déplacement
Un objet de travail 
Alors que la moto, c'est plutôt une machine
un objet d'agrément, de vacances, disons
J'aime bien les motos assez puissantes 
J'ai une 750 Honda que j'ai fait transformer par Japoto en 950 
Parce que j'aime assez les engins assez poussés, assez puissants
Ça vient peut-être parce que ma première moto était une Harley Davidson 
1200 centimètres/cubes et que quand j'ai une moto, disons, plus légère
Ça me paraît un peu fragile
Et comme je suis assez grand, je me sens plus à l'aise, moi personnellement
sur une moto de grosse cylindrée

Moi aussi j'ai une moto 
J'ai Kawazaki 250
Non, Honda
Non, c'est vrai 
J'ai Kawazaki 250
Mais pas encore
Mais, après-demain
Ce que j'aime dans la moto, moi...
Moi, je vais avoir une Kawasaki 900, entres parenthèses
Oui mais t'es plus grand, évidemment 
C'est normal
Moi je tomberais avec

Non, mais, moi ce que j'aime dans la moto, c'est que, comme disait Johnny
c'est un objet qui fait penser aux vacances, parce que quand on est sur une moto
on fait partie et on fait corps avec la nature 
C'est-à-dire, on fait partie de la nature, de l'environnement 
quand on est dans une voiture, on est, on est dans sa voiture
alors quand on est sur une moto, on est comme sur un cheval 
C'est à agréable
On est à l'air libre

Bye bye baby
Bye bye honey
Je m'envole, je décolle
De ta vie

C'est un disque, de toute façon, d'un métrage assez court
On a pas trop le temps de pouvoir discuter trop longtemps avec vous
Mais, je pense qu'en tous cas, en ce qui concerne cet été, on aura l'occasion de vous voir
enfin, en tout cas, ceux qui voudront bien venir nous voir
En attendant, peut-être, pour qu'on se connaisse un peu mieux, car aujourd'hui
vous nous avez entendu, mais nous, finalement, on parle dans un micro
et vous, vous nous écoutez 
Peut-être que vous pouvez écrire au journal
pour dire si vous avez été contents, si la chanson qu'on vous a réservée vous a plu et
en tous cas, si vous aimeriez qu'on vous la chante, cet été, en tournée, Sylvie et moi
Alors on attend votre courrier et j'espère que vous aurez été contents
de cet enregistrement et que ça vous aura fait plaisir
À bientôt
À bientôt, au revoir

I Wish It Could Be (Otherwise)

Daisy Mae:
I wish it could be otherwise
Otherwise I’m sorry we met at all
I’m sorry we ever had to start with
Those wonderful dreams
You broke my heart with
I wish there was some other way
Like it is, our backs is against the wall
Just seems
 
Daisy Mae and Li’l Abner:
That fate put this heart of mine
Under some ancient sign
Or otherwise you’d still be mine
All mine
Or otherwise you’d still be mine

Progress Is The Root Of All Evil
Composer(s): Gene de Paul - Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): Howard St. John & Lehman Engel



Progress is the root of all evil  
Progress is the cause of it all
Our living standard’s now so good, I had to change my neighborhood
Where is Levitown?
Billionaires are getting old fashioned, labor is the new fangled craze
These lousy basic minimums are getting so high
The workers in the plant are living better than I
My lawyers all advise me that it’s cheaper to die!  
Bring back the good old days

Progress is the root of all evil, Wall Street is the worst of the lot
How can you break the market now?  
The SEC will not allow - one little panic
Money nowadays is no problem, not with all these new giveaways
I went to see a television quiz show today
I thought at least I’d wind up with a Caddy Coupe’
But dammit if they didn’t try to give me away!  
Bring back the good old days

Progress is the root of all evil, progress is the cause of it all
The world has now progressed so far
we don’t know where the hell we are – ask Harry Truman 
Gone are all the lovely Strauss waltzes, Rock ‘N Roll’s becoming the craze
The modern generation’s taste is really complex
The very thing we used to love it quickly rejects 
Whoever thought that outer space would overtake sex?  
Bring back the good old days

Bye Bye
Composer(s): Jean-Jacques Debout; Roger Dumas
Performer(s): Dalida



Bye bye ce n'est pas un adieu
Bye bye c'est un mot merveilleux
Qu'on dit quand on se quitte en chantant

Mais lorsque s'éteignent les chandelles
Ciao ciao meme si l'on ne veut
Ciao ciao jamais se dire adieu
Il faut savoir avant de partir
Se le dire dans un sourire

Bye bye ce n'est pas un adieu
Bye bye c'est un mot merveilleux

Oh, Happy Day
Composer(s): Gene de Paul - Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): Stanley Simmonds, George Reeder, Ralph Linn, Lehman Engel



Oh happy day when miracles take place, and scientists control the human race
When we assume authority of human chromosomes
And assembly line women, conveyor belt men
Settle down in push button homes
Oh happy day when all the cells conform, and the exceptional becomes the norm
When from a test tube we produce gargantuas or gnomes
And assembly line babies, conveyor belt storks
Only come to push button homes

So much o’this, so much o’that, for the ears and eyes
So much o’that, so much o’this for the toes and thighs
Pour in a pot, stir up a lot, that’s the basic plan
What have we got, I’ll tell you what – we’ve got man made man!

Oh happy day when we can choose their looks, from formulae in scientific books
And add their personalities from psychiatric tomes
And assembly line husbands, conveyor belt wives
Settle down in push button homes

Oh happy day when all the world can see, a healthy, hearty, hale humanity
When even tired bus’ness men have hair up on their domes
Slender-ella type mothers; and muscle beach dads  
Living in gymnasium homes
Oh happy day when in collective brains, no individuality remains
We’ll be a race of busy bees in happy honeycombs
With automaton couples, mechanical guests, getting gassed in self service homes

Chick after chick, chick after chick, rolling off the line
Chick after chick, chick after chick, in the same design
Nobody thin, nobody fat, every body stacked
We guarantee they’re gonna be firm and fully packed!

Oh happy day when boys and girls on dates, can tell electric’ly if they are mates
If he goes for her kilowatts and she enjoys his ohms
You can bet your magnetic, combustible shirt, they’ll wind up in high voltage homes

By The Way
Composer(s): Cathy Majeski; Stephony Smith
Performer(s): Tanya Tucker



Just in case you didn't know
And I know baby it's not easy
for you to say I'm the one
But I can tell by the way you love
By the way you smile
By the way you say nothin'
I can see it all in your eyes

By the way I really need you
Everyday of my life
Don't worry baby if words escape you

I feel what you're feelin' and that's enough
I can tell by the way you love

By the way you smile
By the way you say nothin'
I can see it all in your eyes
By the way I know it's not easy
for you to say I'm the one
But I can tell by the way you love me
I can tell I'm the one by the way you love me

Like You Do
Composer(s): Gary Richrath
Performer(s): REO Speedwagon



Well I've seen women who cross their legs
Before they sit down to the table
And I've seen women who look to the sky
Screamin lord I believe in the bible
And I've seen hookers dancin through times square
With their heads held up so high
But I've never seen a woman
Who makes me feel
Woah, like you do

Well I've seen couples holdin hands
With that glazy look in their eyes
And I've seen lovers rollin round in bed
Screamin as if they're gonna die
And I've seen lovers holdin hands
And then laughin when their back is turned
But I've never seen a woman
Who makes me feel
Woah, like you do

Well I've seen women who cross their legs
Before they sit down to the table
And I've seen women who look to the sky
Screamin lord I believe in the bible
And I've seen hookers dancin through times square
With their heads held up so high
But I've never seen a woman
Who makes me feel
No I've never seen a woman
Who can make me feel
Like you do

Moon Deer
How near
Your soul divine!
Sun Deer
No fear
In heart of mine

Skies blue
O'er you
Look down in love
Waves bright
Give light
As on they move

Hear thou
My vow
To live to die
Moon Deer
Thee near
Beneath this sky

Like Two Strangers
((Spanish Version: Como Dos Extraños (by Pedro Aznar))
Composer(s): José María Contursí - Pedro Laurenz
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar



I got frightened by loneliness
and the great fear of dying away from you
How I wanted to cry feeling the mockery of reality
next to me

And my heart begged me
to look for you and to get your love back
My heart asked for it and so I sought you
thinking you could be my salvation

And now that we're face to face
we look, you see, just like two strangers
I've finally learnt the lesson,
how time changes everything!

Anguish of knowing that dreams and faith
have already died
Forgive me if you see me shed a tear
memories have done me harm

The light of the sun grew pale
as I heard you speak so coldly
Our love was so different and it hurts to finally realize
that everything, everything is over

What a big mistake, to see you again
only to walk away with my heart torn to pieces
The dead hours of yesterday are like a thousand ghosts
as they return to laugh at me

By The Time This Night Is Over
Composer(s): Michael Bolton; Andy Goldmark; Diane Warren
Performer(s): Peabo Bryson
and various other artists



Silence takes over
Saying all we need to say
Theres endless possibilites
In the moves we can make
Your kiss is giving every indication
If this heart of mine is right

Chorus
By the time this night is over
The stars are gonna shine on two lovers in love
And when the morning comes
Its gonna find us together
In a love thats just begun
By the time this night is over
Two hearts are gonna fly to the heavens above
And well get closer and closer and closer
By the time this night is over

Lets take a slow and easy ride
Just lay back, and let love take us over
Theres magic here with you and I
And its gonna take us all the way
Lets find some kind of a deeper conversation
And darling if its right

Chorus

A night like this may never come again
And you wont want this lie to end
Oh baby we can have it all
By the time this night is...over

Chorus

Oh, gonna wrap my lovin' arms around you
Heaven's gonna smile, gonna smile on two lovers...

and multiple other artists



Escuchar
mientras leo
Me acobardó la soledad
y el miedo enorme de morir lejos de ti...
¡Qué ganas tuve de llorar
sintiendo junto a mí
la burla de la realidad!
Y el corazón me suplicó
que te buscara y que le diera tu querer...
Me lo pedía el corazón
y entonces te busqué
creyéndote mi salvación...

Y ahora que estoy frente a ti
parecemos, ya ves, dos extraños...
Lección que por fin aprendí:
¡cómo cambian las cosas los años!
Angustia de saber muertas ya
la ilusión y la fe...
Perdón si me ves lagrimear...
¡Los recuerdos me han hecho mal!

Palideció la luz del sol
al escucharte fríamente conversar...
Fue tan distinto nuestro amor
y duele comprobar
que todo, todo terminó
¡Qué gran error volverte a ver
para llevarme destrozado el corazón!
Son mil fantasmas, al volver
burlándose de mí
las horas de ese muerto ayer ...

By The Time I Get To Phoenix
Composer(s): Jimmy Webb
Performer(s): Glen Campbell
and various other artists



By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be rising
She'll find the note I left hangin' on her door
She'll laugh when she reads the part that says I'm leavin'
'Cause I've left that girl so many times before

By the time I make Albuquerque she'll be working
She'll prob'ly stop at lunch and give me a call
But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringin'
Off the wall, that's all

By the time I make Oklahoma she'll be sleepin'
She'll turn softly and call my name out loud
And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her
Tho' time and time I tried to tell her so
She just didn't know I would really go

Like To Get To Know You
Composer(s): Stuart Scharf
First release by: Spanky & Our Gang - 1968



Yes, I would like to get to know you, if I could
Like to get to know you
Finally I found, searching all around
Just was not the answer
One I thought was true
Looked a bit like you
Figured I might chance her
Hardly need to say
She went on her way
Said it was all over
Well it's been some time
And I guess that I'm just meant to be a rover

Now I can't promise that I'll spend a day with you
Can't promise that I'll find a way with you
Can't promise no
I can't promise that I'll love you
But I'd like to get to know you
Yes I would if I could

By The Sleepy Lagoon 
Composer(s): Jack Lawrence; Eric Coates
Performer(s): Harry James
and various other artists



A sleepy lagoon, a tropical moon, and two on an island
A sleepy lagoon and two hearts in tune, in some far off island
The fireflies gleam reflects in the stream
They sparkle and shimmer
A star from on high falls out of the sky and slowly grows dimmer
The leaves from the trees all dance in the breeze and float on the ripples
We’re deep in a spell as nightingales tell of roses and dew
The memory of this moment of love will haunt me forever
A tropical moon, a sleepy lagoon and you

The memory of this moment of love will haunt me forever
A sleepy lagoon, a tropical moon and you

A sleepy lagoon and you
