The joys of love
The joys of love
Are but a moment strong
The pain of love endures
A whole life long

His eyes kissed mine
I saw the love in them shine
A rainbow brightened my window
Such love divine

And now he's gone
Like a dream that melts with the dawn
His memory stays locked in my heartstrings
He was ne'er mine

Little Queen
Composer(s): Ann Wilson - Howard Leese - Michael DeRosier - Nancy Wilson - Roger Fisher -Steve Fossen
Performer(s): Heart



You'd rather have wine than gin
Only the finest by your skin
Always running after Time - catching
You're fancy with rhyme
Shining on the front page again

Hot on the presses today - little queen
Making your passion play - little queen
Nobody knows your melancholy mind 
Little queen

Away from the sellers, the papers said
Your crown was tight and heavy on your head
Still you danced and you sang - all night
The telephone rang
Music kept on playing from your pen

Hot on the presses today - little queen
Making your passion play - little queen
Nobody knows your melancholy mind 
Little queen

Raining Raining- he knows your Soul ain't free
Raining Raining- he feels you little queen

Slipping away with your gypsy band
Hot on your music and playing a winning hand
He was standing in the line, thinking how you
Moved his mind
Feeling like he held you in his hand

Everybody's got to live together

So, love your neighbour
Like you love your brother
Come on and join the band

Well, all you need is love and understanding
Ring the bell and let the people know
We're so happy and we're celebrating
Come on and let your feelings show

Love is all, well love is all
Love is all, can't you hear the call
Oh, love is all you need
Love is all you need at the Butterfly Ball

Ain't you happy that we're all together
At the ball in nature's countryside
And although we're wearing different faces
Nobody wants to hide

Love is all and love is all and
It's easy, yes it's so easy
At the Butterfly Ball where love is all
And It's so easy

All you need is love and understanding
Ring the bell and let the people know
We're so happy and we're celebrating
Let your feelings show

Love is all, yes love is all at the Butterfly Ball
Love is big, love is small
Love is free, love is all
At the Butterfly Ball

When your back's to the wall
When you're starting to fall
You got something to lean on
Love is everything

It can make you sing at the Butterfly Ball
Love is all, I say love is all, yes love is all
At the Butterfly Ball

Ik kreeg de brokke in de keal
Toen ik eur in dat cafeetjen zag
Ik kreeg de knikkers in de knieen en
Ik was opens totaal van slag
Ik zag eur effe later weer
Zie stond gebukt bi-j de pick-up
Prachtig lekker rond, blozend mooi en dat zonder make-up
Ston met eur gat te zwaaien en zie dronk 'n gleasken 7-up

En intussen pakt zie een pilsjen
Uut 'n kratjen dat op de grond steet
As zie zich bukt spant zich eur roksken
Um heur kontjen dat lekker rond steet
As zie wil dansen griep ik mien kansen
Kom op Dinie ennerrehh

Oh oh oh kleine Dinie
Oh oh oh kleine Dinie
Oh oh oh kleine Dinie, Dinie, Dinie oh yeah

Zie vroagt mien: "Wie is dat deerntje
Die doar gunter bi-j de tapkast steet"
Ik zeg : "Dat is mien Dinie" en dan
Slakkert zie es lekker met eur reet
Ik vlieg eur achterna as zie op de fiets op huus an geet

En intussen draait zie zich um
Zie kik noar mien oaver heur scholder

Zeuventien en niks older
Eur lipjes trilt een betjen wild
Kom op Dinie laat ow niet kennen

Oh oh oh kleine Dinie

Toutes Les Mêmes 
((Adapted from: Love Is All (by Roger Glover) - 1974))
Composer(s): Roger Glover - Eddie Hardin - Vline Buggy - Claude Carrère
Performer(s): Sacha Distel - 1976



Plus légères et frêles que les gazelles
Plus gracieuses qu'un vol de papillon
Elles font le beau temps comme les coccinelles
Et roucoulent comme les pigeons
Elles sont bavardes et belles comme les perruches
Prévoyantes aussi comme les fourmis
Nous laissent tomber comme des ours en peluche
Pour suivre un bel oiseau de nuit

Toutes les mêmes, toutes les mêmes
Et pourtant on ne peut pas s'en passer
Toutes les mêmes oui mais on les aime et rien ne peut les remplacer

Pour elles nous sommes toujours des phénomènes
Plus maladroits que des éléphants
Dans un magasin de porcelaine, quand on les trompe en passant

Toutes les mêmes, toutes les mêmes
Et pourtant on ne peut pas s'en passer
Toutes les mêmes oui mais on les aime et rien ne peut les remplacer

Plus bohèmes encore que les cigales, elles adorent danser la nuit
Mais ces petites chattes ont pour elle une morale
Trouver le matou de leur vie

Toutes les mêmes, toutes les mêmes
Et pourtant on ne peut pas s'en passer
Toutes les mêmes, elles sont toutes les mêmes
Et pourtant on ne peut pas s'en passer

I got lumps in my throat
When I saw her comin' down the aisle
I got the wiggles in my knees
When she looked at me and sweetly smiled

There she is again
Standin' over by the record machine
Lookin' like a model
On the cover of a magazine
She's too cute
To be a minute over seventeen

Meanwhile I's thinkin'...

She's in the mood
No need'n break it
I got a chance
I oughta take it
If she'll dance
We can make it
C'mon Queenie,
Let's shake it

Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Go, go, go, Little Queenie

Tell me who's the queen
Standin' over by the record machine
Lookin' like a model
On the cover of a magazine
She's too cute
To be a minute over seventeen

Meanwhile, I was still thinkin'...

If it's a slow song
We'll omit it
If it's a rocker, that'll get it
And if it's good, she'll admit it
C'mon queenie, let's get with it

Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Go, go, go, Little Queenie
Go, go, go, Little Queenie

Let's get it

Get with it ...

Love Is All
Composer(s): Barry Mason - Les Reed

Yesterday, I knew the games to play
I thought I knew the way life was meant to be
But now there's you
My foolish games are through
Now at last I have found
Just what makes this old world turn around

Love is all I have to give
Love is all as long as I shall live
Take it all
And I'll always be there when you call my name
I know now that love is all

Every night I long to hold you tight
Until the morning light
Shines into your eyes, love me now
We'll get along somehow
Won't you please take my hand
And together forever we'll stand

Love is all I have to give
Love is all as long as I shall live
Take it all
And I'll always be there when you call my name
I know now that love is all

And a part of each dream

To enthral and admire

And its cares of the day
Then the spring brings the sun
Just to melt them away

Love is all, love is all
On this earth to unfurl
For each boy and each girl

Winter comes with its song
And its cares of the day
Then the spring brings the sun

On this earth to unfurl
For each boy and each girl
Love is all

The Little Red Caboose Behind The Train
Performer(s): Paul Warmack & His Gully Jumpers



I am growing old and weary
And my sight is getting dim
I have laid my links and pins away to rust
And the only friend that's left to me
In this wide world to stand
Is the Little Red Caboose Behind The Train

Oh, I'm growing old and feeble now
And my sight is getting dim
And I cannot see those signals anymore
I can hear those whistles blowing
And I know I'll soon be going
To a better home I know that's far away

There are young ones coming on
It is time for me to go
They'll be pestered with the rain, the sleet and snow
And they'll find a heap of trouble
When those hills they have to double
With the Little Red Caboose Behind The Train

Love Is All
Composer(s): Graham Russell
Performer(s): Air Supply



When we come into this world
And we hunger for the touch
From the one that brought us life
From the one that gave so much

Innocence will take your hand
And speak through the one thought in your mind

Don't you know that love is all
Love is where we all begin
And when we knock on heaven's door
Only love will let us in

And as we gather to ourselves
A part of everything we see
We realize that what we own
Isn't what we really need

Innocence take my hand
And speak through the one thought in your mind

Don't you know that love is all
Love is where we all begin
Love is all that we must do
It is the reason why we live
Love is all I have for you

True love cannot be broken
Through all the tears of pain
Only one truth survives
Only one truth remains

Love Is Alive
Composer(s): Kent Robbins
Performer(s): The Judds



Love ain't a candle
It doesn't burn for one night
And need the dark to shine
Love is alive

And love ain't just a word
In every dictionary
With no where defined
Love is a man and he's mine

Love is alive
And at our breakfast table
Everyday of the week

Love is alive
And it grows everyday and night
Even in our sleep

Love is alive
And it's made a happy woman out of me
Oh, love is alive
And here by me

Love ain't just a mood
A distant far away dream
That needs the night to rise
Love is alive

And love ain't just a song
Sweet words of music
To go dancin' by
Love is a man and he's mine

Love is alive
And at our breakfast table
Everyday of the week

Love is alive, here by me

Love is alive
And at our breakfast table
Everyday of the week ...

Little Sadie ((aka Transfusion Blues (by Johnny Cash) - 1960; Cocaine Blues (by George Thorogood & The Destroyers) - 1978))
(Traditional)
First release by: Hedy West - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists



Went out last night, had a look around
I met little Sadie and I blowed her down
I ran right home and went to bed
With a 45 smokeless under my head

I began to think what a deed I'd done
So I grabbed my hat and away I run
I made a good run but I ran too slow
They overtook me down in Jericho

Standing on the corner ringing my bell
When up stepped the sheriff of Thomasville
He said young man, is your name Brown?
Are you the man that blowed little Sadie down?

Oh yes sir my name is Lee
I murdered little Sadie in first degree
First degree, second degree
You got any papers will you send them to me?

Took me downtown and they dressed me in black
They put me on a train and they brought me back
Had no-one to go my bail
So they crammed me back into the county jail

The judge and jury took their stand
The judge had the papers in his hand
41 days and 41 nights
And 41 years to wear the ball and stripes

Love Is Alive

Covered by multiple other artists



Well I think it's time to get ready
To relax just what I have found
I have lived only half of what I am
All clear to me now

My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turnin'
You love is alive, my love is alive

Three's something inside
That's making me crazy
I'll try to keep it together
'Cause what I say may not happen the same way
Now could be forever

My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turnin'
You love is alive, my love is alive

There's a mirror moving inside my mind
Reflecting the love that you shine on me
Hold on now to that feeling
Let it flow, let it grow

My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turnin'
You love is alive, my love is alive

Little Sally One Shoe
Composer(s): J. Fred Coots - Jack Winters
Performer(s): Rosemary Clooney



Pretty little Sally
You're 6 years old today
And it's time you paid attention
To what I have to say

Little Sally One Shoe that's your name
Always losing one shoe, what a shame
Don't you know that people watch your feet
When you walk along the street

Little Sally One Shoe, you've been told
When you take your shoes off you catch cold
Mommy makes you stay in bed all day
And you can't go out to play

Your cat and your doggie
Wear no shoes because
Your cat and your doggie 
Don't need shoes for their paws

So when you get your new shoes, black or white
Keep your pretty new shoes shiny bright
Little Sally One Shoe, don't go losing one shoe
Maybe keep your two shoes on

Your cat and your doggie
Wear no shoes because
Your cat and your doggie 
Don't need shoes for their paws

So when you get your new shoes, black or white
Keep your pretty new shoes shiny bright
Little Sally One Shoe, don't go losing one shoe
Learn to keep your two shoes on

Love Is A Simple Thing
Composer(s): June Carroll - Arthur Siegel
Performer(s): Debbie Reynolds



Poets write fancy things about love
But they don't have no call
Love is like birth or death or taxes
Love just is, that's all

Love is a simple thing, love is a silver ring
Shiny as a ribbon bow, soft as a quiet snow
Love is a nursery rhyme, old as the tick of time
Love is so many things, bright as an angel's wings

Gentle as the morning light, long as a winter night
Love makes an old heart sing
And it fills ev'ry empty space, love is a warming place
Love is a simple thing

Love is a simple thing, love is a magic ring
Much more fun than mistletoe, gay as a puppet show
Love is the thunder and rain, swift as a soaring plane
Love is a summer moon, gay as a big balloon

Young as a calliope, wild as a storm at sea
Love is a touch of spring
It's as sweet as a first embrace, love is a special place
Love is a simple thing

Weepin' and a-moanin' like a turtle dove

Turn to the east, turn to the west

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine

I wanna see what's never been seen
I wanna live that age-old dream
Come on boy let's go together
Let's take the best right now

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine

I wanna go to an old hoedown
Long ago in a western town
Pick me up 'cause my feet are dragging
Give me a lift and I'll hay your wagon

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine

Mine
