Li'l Red Riding Hood ((Danish Version: Ulven Peter (by Peter Belli & Les Rivals) - 1966)) Composer(s): Ronald Blackwell First release by: Sam The Sham & The Pharoahs - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists
Owoooooooo! Who's that I see walkin' in these woods? Why, it's Little Red Riding Hood Hey there Little Red Riding Hood You sure are looking good You're everything a big bad wolf could want Listen to me
Little Red Riding Hood I don't think little big girls should Go walking in these spooky old woods alone Owoooooooo!
What big eyes you have The kind of eyes that drive wolves mad So just to see that you don't get chased I think I ought to walk with you for a ways
What full lips you have They're sure to lure someone bad So until you get to grandma's place I think you ought to walk with me and be safe
I'm gonna keep my sheep suit on Until I'm sure that you've been shown That I can be trusted walking with you alone Owoooooooo!
Little Red Riding Hood I'd like to hold you if I could But you might think I'm a big bad wolf so I won't Owoooooooo!
What a big heart I have-the better to love you with Little Red Riding Hood Even bad wolves can be good I'll try to be satisfied just to walk close by your side Maybe you'll see things my way before we get to grandma's place
Little Red Riding Hood You sure are looking good You're everything that a big bad wolf could want Owoooooooo! I mean baaaaaa! Baaa?

Li'l Ole Kiss Of Fire Composer(s): Lester Allen - Robert Hill Performer(s): Homer & Jethro
I touch your lips, that's when the trouble starts a-brewin' I can't resist the brand of 'bacca you are chewin' And though my heart goes boom, just like a blown out tyre I'm just plumb crazy for your li'l ole kiss of fire
Just like a calf, you've got me roped and tied and branded You'd make a fortune with your kissin' if you canned it And though I know you're true to Lem and Zeke and Willie I'm still plumb silly for your li'l ole kiss of fire
The flames are flyin', I'm on the pan a-fryin' What good is there denyin', a-sighin' and a-cryin' The flame is spurtin', my darlin', I'm a-hurtin' If I must burn, then darlin', bake me like a bun 'Til I'm well done, 'til I'm well done, oh-oh-oh Lord
Give me your lips and watch me sizzle like a cinder Just one more kiss and I'll go flyin' out the winder You got me on the griddle and I'll always be there Yes, what put me there, your li'l ole kiss of fire
You got a pucker like a possum eatin' 'simmons The way you kiss, you must have practiced on some lemons And when you kiss me, you set my mouth on fire Dadburn that cigar and your li'l ole kiss of fire

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

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 standards 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 its 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 Id wind up with a Caddy Coupe But dammit if they didnt 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 dont know where the hell we are ask Harry Truman Gone are all the lovely Strauss waltzes, Rock N Rolls becoming the craze The modern generations 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

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 othis, so much othat, for the ears and eyes So much othat, so much othis for the toes and thighs Pour in a pot, stir up a lot, thats the basic plan What have we got, Ill tell you what weve 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 busness 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 Well 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 theyre gonna be firm and fully packed!
Oh happy day when boys and girls on dates, can tell electricly if they are mates If he goes for her kilowatts and she enjoys his ohms You can bet your magnetic, combustible shirt, theyll 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 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
