    Lone Star State Of Mind
    Composer(s): Fred Koller - Patrick Alger - Gene Levine
    Performer(s): Nanci Griffith
    and multiple other artists



    Your phone call took my by surprise
    Gee, it's been a long, long time
    Since those hot and humid Texas nights
    When we went swimm'n in the tide

    Corpus Christi seems so far away
    And I'm not talk'n 'bout the miles
    And there ain't much I wouldn't give today
    Just to see one of your smiles

    But here I sit alone in Denver
    Sipp'n the California wine
    And I've got all night to remember you
    I'm in a lone star state of mind

    I just saw John Wayne on the Late, Late Show
    Save the girl and ride away
    And I was hoping as the credits rolled
    He'd make it back to her someday

    But here I sit alone in Denver
    Sipp'n the California wine
    And I've got all night to remember you
    I'm in a lone star state of mind

    It's a thousand miles or more
    From here to your front door
    I'd be there tomorrow if I left today
    And I'd just pack up my guitar
    You know it's really not that far
    When you called you said I'd have a place to stay

    But here I sit alone in Denver
    Sipp'n the California wine
    And I've got all night to remember you
    I'm in a lone star state of mind

    Quand Le Soleil Était Là ((Adapted from: Cuando Calienta El Sol En Masachapa (Trio Hermanos Rigual) - 1961)) Composer(s): Rafael Gastón Pérez - Fernand Bonifay Performer(s): Gloria Lasso - 1962 Versions In Other Languages: 1962 - Livet Er Fyldt Med Sol (Poul Bundgaard) 1964 - Love Me With All Your Heart (Ray Charles Singers) 1996 - Hoor Je Het Slaan Van Mijn Hart (Wendy Van Wanten)



    Cuando Calienta El Sol
    Quand le soleil était là sur nos vacances
    Quand il glissait dans nos cœurs
    Tant de chaleur
    Tout venait de lui
    Nos promesses, nos tendresses
    Nos faiblesses, nos caresses, notre amour

    Quand le soleil était là sur nos vacances
    Quand nous partions pour cueillir
    Des souvenirs
    Nous ne pensions pas
    Que les rires, les sourires
    L'insouciance et les danses des beaux jours
    Ça ne dure pas toujours

    Quand le soleil était là, baignant la plage
    Quand la mer venait saler tous nos baisers
    Nous étions si bien que ce rêve qui s'achève
    Oui j'espère le refaire l'an prochain
    Et tout recommencera, ah, ah, ah
    Car l'amour ne s'oublie pas, ah, ah, ah
    Et le soleil sera là, là, là!

    Lone Star Blues
    Composer(s): Delbert McClinton - Gary Nicholson
    Performer(s): Delbert McClinton



    At a truck stop in St Angelo
    I saw a billboard 'bout this rodeo
    Last weekend out in El Paso
    So I signed up to ride

    I drew a bull called Original Sin
    Heard he'd killed a couple of men
    Figured this was somethin' I could win
    'Cause the devil's on my side

    I was havin' myself one hell of a ride
    When I ended up disqualified
    'Cause that danged old bull just up an' died
    Before they blew the whistle

    An' I got them North Texas blues
    Thought I'd paid all my dues
    Then them South Texas blues
    Told me son you ain't through
    Had them East Texas blues
    An' then West Texas too
    I've done all I know to do
    To try to lose
    To try to lose these lone star blues

    I got laid off at Brown and Root
    On my way back to Cut and Shoot
    I lost my wristwatch an' my boots
    Shootin' dice with a dude from Houston

    There ain't no jobs here workin' cattle
    So I got on part-time hauling gravel
    With some outfit from Seattle
    Down here building custom homes

    Well, I got them North Texas blues
    Thought I'd paid all my dues
    Then them South Texas blues
    Told me son you ain't through
    Had them East Texas blues
    An' then West Texas too
    I've done all I know to do
    Tryin' to lose
    Tryin' to lose these lone star blues

    I gassed up my truck an' I packed my clothes
    Turned in my key and I hit the road
    I said Cow Town's where I'll go
    You never know, I might get lucky

    I got a friend there turnin' knobs
    At this place called Billy Bob's
    Said he could get me a job there
    Working as a bouncer

    First night on the job was just insane
    Some old boy got all deranged
    Hit me in the head with a Harley chain
    To this day, my ears still ring

    I got them North Texas blues
    Thought I'd paid all my dues
    Then them South Texas blues
    Told me son you ain't through
    Had them East Texas blues
    An' then West Texas too
    I've done all I know to do
    Tryin' to lose
    Tryin' to lose these lone star blues

    I've done all I know to do
    Tryin' to lose
    Tryin' to lose these lone star blues

    Cuando Amanecen Las Flores
    Composer(s): Bebu Silvetti
    Performer(s): Raphael



    Siempre esperando, siempre, que vuelvas
    Aunque tan solo luego yo te pierda
    Otra vez el amor, como ayer, tu y yo

    Cuando amanecen las flores en primavera
    Tambien florecen mis manos porque te esperan
    Fue largo y triste el invierno sin tu cariño
    Canta mi amor porque es tiempo de estar contigo
    Y otra vez el amor, como ayer, tu y yo

    Lone Rider
    Composer(s): Geoff Goddard
    Performer(s): John Leyton; Flee Rekkers



    Alone, lone rider
    Is ridin' tonight
    Through the dusk, you can hear me a-roarin'
    Revvin' up to glory
    Travellin' through the night
    Tryin' to tell my story
    Yeah, tryin' to prove that I'm right

    Be warned, young riders or soon you will see
    You'll become just as lonely and sad as me

    (what do you know)

    Cross fields, cross forests
    Through city and town
    I'll ride for my journey is endless
    Oh, risks for kicks will bring you
    Nothing but tears and pain
    Just like me you'll be ridin'
    Through the wind and the rain

    Be warned, young riders or soon you will see
    You'll become just as lonely and sad as me

    Cuando Agosto Era 21
    Composer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
    Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo



    Se ocultaba en los pilares
    de los viejos pasadizos
    para esconder el hijo
    que pronto le iba a llegar
    fue difícil esconder
    en un pobre delantal
    los tres meses de más

    Y salía del colegio
    con un siete en la libreta
    y en el vientre una cometa
    que pronto querrá volar
    y se iba a caminar
    y se iba a preguntar
    por las calles, sin final

    Y se fue donde un cura
    quien le dijo era pecado
    y muy pronto un abogado
    le habló de lo legal
    y fue el profesor de ciencias
    quien le habló de la inconsciencia
    de la juventud actual…
    de la juventud actual…

    Los que juzgan
    no han sentido
    el amor, el dolor
    y en el vientre
    unos latidos…

    Y se enredan en prejuicios
    y el amor, se quedó
    en unos cuantos latidos…Y sobraron los consejos
    que le hablaban de pastillas
    de una vieja mujercilla
    que el trabajo lo hace bien
    no faltó la buena amiga
    esa amiga entre comillas
    que le dio una dirección

    Y salió desde el colegio
    en una fría mañana
    cuando la vieja campana
    aún no daba su talán
    mientras el profe de ciencias
    hablaba de la inconsciencia
    de la juventud actual…

    Cuando Agosto era 21
    la encontraron boca arriba
    con la mirada perdida
    y su viejo delantal
    y en el bolso de colegio
    dibujado un corazón
    que decía tú y yo…
    que decía tú y yo…

    Los que juzgan
    no han sentido ...

    London, London
    Composer(s): Caetano Veloso
    First release by: Caetano Veloso - 1971
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I'm wandering round and round nowhere to go
    I'm lonely in London London is lovely so
    I cross the streets without fear
    Everybody keeps the way clear
    I know, I know no one here to say hello
    I know they keep the way clear
    I am lonely in London without fear
    I'm wandering round and round here nowhere to go
    While my eyes
    Go looking for flying saucers in the sky
    Oh Sunday, Monday, Autumm pass by me
    And people hurry on so peacefully
    A group approaches a policeman
    He seems so pleased to please them
    It's good at least to live and I agree
    He seems so pleased at least
    And it's so good to live in peace and
    Sunday, Monday, years and I agree
    While my eyes
    Go looking for flying saucers in the sky
    I choose no face to look at
    Choose no way
    I just happen to be here
    And it's ok
    Green grass, blue eyes, gray sky, God bless
    Silent pain and happiness
    I came around to say yes, and I say
    But my eyes
    Go looking for flying saucers in the sky

    Cuando
    Composer(s): Jorge Fandermole
    Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto



    Cuando me despierte cada dia
    con el cuerpo de aire y ese olor
    feliz del tiempo manso de las lilas
    sin miedo al movimiento y al dolor
    cuando ya no tenga casi nada
    de sangre en la garganta de papel
    ni un agrio pez nadando en la mirada
    ni quiera mas amparo que la piel

    Van a ser los días esos barcos
    de luz que una vez supe escribir
    y la alegría que hemos olvidado
    volviendo por los huesos a subir
    yo me alimento con una quimera
    en que los ojos al sol verán brillar
    los brazos de mi padre en las banderas
    y una ceniza negra y una ceniza negra
    y una ceniza negra que se va

    Cuando me convenza que la suerte
    me rige a la par que la pasión
    y no el terrible arcangel de la muerte
    rondando por el campo de el reloj
    Si lo concebido y lo posible
    tienen siempre la cara del horror
    en esta patria de lo inaccesible
    en este tiempo olvidado de Dios
    Yo digo que mis ávidos amores
    son fuertes y viven mas que yo
    son gigantes tenues como flores
    que alientan a este pobre corazón
    los alimento con una quimera
    en que los ojos al sol verán brillar
    los brazos de mi padre en las banderas
    y una ceniza negra y una ceniza negra
    y una ceniza negra que se va

    London Town
    Performer(s): Paul McCartney & Wings



    Walking down the sidewalk on a purple afternoon
    I was accosted by a barker playing a simple tune
    Upon his flute - toot toot toot toot

    Silver rain was falling down
    Upon the dirty ground of London Town

    People pass me by on my imaginary street
    Ordinary people it's impossible to meet
    Holding conversations that are always incomplete
    Well, I don't know
    Oh, where are there places to go
    Someone somewhere has to know
    I don't know

    Out of work again the actor entertains his wife
    With the same old stories of his ordinary life
    Maybe he exaggerates the trouble and the strife
    Well, I don't know
    Oh, where are there places to go
    Someone somewhere has to know

    Crawling down the pavement on a Sunday afternoon
    I was arrested by a rozzer wearing a pink balloon
    About his foot - toot toot toot toot

    Silver rain was falling down
    Upon the dirty ground of London Town

    Someone somewhere has to know
    Silver rain was falling down
    Upon the dirty ground of London town

    London Pride
    Composer(s): Noel Coward
    Performer(s): Noel Coward
    and multiple other artists



    London Pride has been handed down to us
    London Pride is a flower that's free
    London Pride means our own dear town to us
    And our pride it for ever will be

    Woa, Liza, see the coster barrows
    Vegetable marrows and the fruit piled high
    Woa, Liza, little London sparrows
    Covent Garden Market where the costers cry

    Cockney feet mark the beat of history
    Every street pins a memory down
    Nothing ever can quite replace
    The grace of London Town

    There's a little city flower every spring unfailing
    Growing in the crevices by some London railing
    Though it has a Latin name, in town and countryside
    We in England call it London Pride

    London Pride has been handed down to us
    London Pride is a flower that's free
    London Pride means our own dear town to us
    And our pride it for ever will be

    Hey, lady, when the day is dawning
    See the policeman yawning on his lonely beat
    Gay lady, Mayfair in the morning
    Hear your footsteps echo in the empty street

    Early rain and the pavement's glistening
    All Park Lane in a shimmering gown
    Nothing ever could break or harm
    The charm of London Town

    In our city darkened now, street and square and crescent
    We can feel our living past in our shadowed present
    Ghosts beside our starlit Thames who lived and loved and died
    Keep throughout the ages London Pride

    London Pride has been handed down to us
    London Pride is a flower that's free
    London Pride means our own dear town to us
    And our pride it for ever will be

    Grey city, stubbornly implanted
    Taken so for granted for a thousand years
    Stay, city, smokily enchanted
    Cradle of our memories and hopes and fears

    Every Blitz your resistance toughening
    From the Ritz to the Anchor and Crown
    Nothing ever could override
    The pride of London Town

    Watching for a spark, it's a moonlight show
    Reaching through the dark. Do you have to go?
    Try to put a message through to your sweetheart
    Won't you like to know the secrets of the heart?

    Crystal gazing, crystal gazing
    What you gonna find in crystal gazing?
    Crystal gazing, crystal gazing
    What you gonna find in crystal gazing?

    Voices in the dark and the lights burn low
    Teach yourself the art that you never know
    Try to put a message through to your sweetheart
    Won't you like to know the secrets of the heart?

    Crystal gazing, crystal gazing
    What you gonna find in crystal gazing?
    Crystal gazing, crystal gazing
    What you gonna find in crystal gazing?

    Pictures from the night, would you be my guide?
    What you talk about on the other side
    Carry you a message through from your sweetheart
    Won't you like to know the secrets of the heart?

    Crystal gazing, crystal gazing
    What you gonna find in crystal gazing?
    Crystal gazing, crystal gazing
    What you gonna find in crystal gazing?

    Watching for a spark, it's a moonlight show
    Reaching through the dark
    Do you have to go?
    Try to put a message through to your sweetheart
    Won't you like to know the secrets of the heart?

    Watching for a spark, it's a moonlight show
    Reaching through the dark
    Do you have to go?

    London Homesick Blues
    Composer(s): Gary P. Nunn - Louie Bellson Jazz Orch.
    Performer(s): Jerry Jeff Walker
    and multiple other artists



    Well, when you're down on your luck
    and you ain't got a buck
    in London you're a goner
    Even London Bridge has fallen down
    and moved to Arizona
    now I know why
    And I'll substantiate the rumor
    that the English sense of humor
    is drier than the Texas sand
    You can put up your dukes
    and you can bet your boots
    that I'm leavin' just as fast as I can

    I wanna go home with the armadillo
    Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
    The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

    Well it's cold over here, and I swear
    I wish they'd turn the heat on
    And where in the world is that English girl
    I promised I would meet on the third floor
    And of the whole damn lot, the only friend I got
    is a smoke and a cheap guitar
    My mind keeps roamin', my heart keeps longin'
    to be home in a Texas bar

    I wanna go home with the armadillo
    Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
    The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

    Well, I decided that, I'd get my cowboy hat
    and go down to Marble Arch Station
    'Cause when a Texan fancies, he'll take his chances
    and chances will be takin, now that's for sure
    And them Limey eyes, they were eyein' a prize
    that some people call manly footwear
    And they said you're from down South
    and when you open your mouth
    you always seem to put your foot there

    I wanna go home with the armadillo
    Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
    The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

    I wanna go home with the armadillo
    Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
    The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

    Colour My World
    Performer(s): Chicago



    As time goes on
    I realize
    Just what you mean
    To me
    And now
    Now that you're near
    Promise your love
    That I've waited to share
    And dreams
    Of our moments together
    Colour my world with hope
    of loving you

    London Calls
    Composer(s): Richard Eckersley - Wreford
    Performer(s): Billy Cotton & His Band



    London calls, great St. Paul’s
    Booming out the fleeting hours
    Carried to the people on London Bridge
    Muffled by the wintry showers

    Half past ten, cold Big Ben
    Time to go to bed and hear
    The melancholy hooting of tugs at night
    Passing some deserted pier

    I miss Westminster, I miss Kew
    I love to see it in the spring
    I miss my Sunday visits to the zoo
    I miss everything

    London calls, its music halls
    The theatres with the latest plays
    In spring or in the autumn, in sunshine, rain
    London calls, I must obey

    The barrow boys, the lights, the noise
    In Hoxton on a busy night
    The happy little sparrows upon the streets
    Of London when the sun shines bright

    The Mile End Road, where traffic flowed
    For many a hundred year
    The cosy little pubs with quaint old names
    Open for a glass of beer

    Brixton in the sunshine on a summer day
    Limehouse ‘neath a leaden pall
    Whitechapel at work, Whitechapel at play
    I love ‘em all

    The busy queues, they air their views
    Waiting for the bus to stop
    The silent squares deserted at dead of night
    Save for an occasional cop

    London gives, London gives
    Happiness to all her friends
    London for so many is still the place
    Will the journey end?

    Colors Of The Sun
    Composer(s): Jackson Browne
    Performer(s): Jackson Browne;
    Rachel Bissex; Tom Rush



    Colors of the sun
    Flashing on the water top
    Echo on the land

    Picking for a coin
    Many other tiny worlds
    Singing past my hand

    Awake to understand you are not dreaming
    It is not seaming just to be this way
    Dying men draw numbers in the air
    Dream to conquer little bits of time
    Scuffle with the crowd to get their share
    And fall behind their little bits of time

    Voices in the air
    Sympathetic harmony
    Coming from the trees

    Hanging at my door
    Many shiny surfaces
    Clinging in the breeze

    Oh, leave me where I am I am not losing
    If I am choosing not to plan my life
    Disillusioned savior search the sky
    Wanting to just to show someone the way
    Asking all the people passing by
    Doesn't anybody want the way

    I say goodbye to Joseph and Maria
    They think I see another sky
    And from my fallen window I still see them
    I'll never free them from the sky

    London Calling
    Composer(s): Joe Strummer - Mick Jones
    First release by: The Clash - 1979
    Covered by multiple other artists



    London calling to the faraway towns
    Now that war is declared and battle come down
    London calling to the underworld
    Come out of the cupboard all you boys and girls
    London calling now don't look at us
    All that phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust
    London calling see we ain't got no swing
    'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing

    The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
    Meltdown expected and the wheat is growing thin
    Engines stop running but I have no fear
    London is drowning and I live by the river

    London calling to the imitation zone
    Forget it, brother, an' go it alone
    London calling upon the zombies of death
    Quit holding out and draw another breath
    London calling and I don't wanna shout
    But when we were talking I saw you nodding out
    London calling see we ain't got no highs
    Except for that one with the yellowy eyes

    The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
    Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin
    A nuclear error but I have no fear
    London is drowning and I live by the river

    Now get this
    London calling yeah I was there too
    An' you know what they said? Well some of it was true
    London calling at the top of the dial
    After all this won't you give me a smile?

    I never felt so much alike

    Colori
    Composer(s): Angelo Branduardi
    Performer(s): Angelo Branduardi



    E' il volto tuo che ho disegnato,...
    chino per terra io l'ho dipinto
    ho usato il nero per i tuoi occhi
    e bianca sabbia per la tua pelle
    Quando la pioggia l'avrà lavato
    e i tuoi colori confuso
    quando il vento sarà passato
    sarò alla fine guarito
    E' il volto tuo che ho disegnato
    mi son seduto ed ho aspettato
    ho usato il nero per i capelli
    e rossa sabbia per la tua bocca
    Verrà la pioggia e lo laverà
    confonderà i tuoi colori
    quando il vento sarà passato
    sarò alla fine guarito

    London Bridge Is Falling Down
    (Traditional)



    London Bridge is falling down
    Falling down, Falling down
    London Bridge is falling down
    My fair lady

    Take a key and lock her up
    Lock her up, Lock her up
    Take a key and lock her up
    My fair lady

    How will we build it up
    Build it up, Build it up?
    How will we build it up
    My fair lady?

    Build it up with silver and gold
    Silver and gold, Silver and gold
    Build it up with silver and gold
    My fair lady

    Gold and silver I have none
    I have none, I have none
    Gold and silver I have none
    My fair lady

    Build it up with needles and pins
    Needles and pins, Needles and pins
    Build it up with needles and pins
    My fair lady

    Pins and needles bend and break
    Bend and break, Bend and break
    Pins and needles bend and break
    My fair lady

    Build it up with wood and clay
    Wood and clay, Wood and clay
    Build it up with wood and clay
    My fair lady

    Wood and clay will wash away
    Wash away, Wash away
    Wood and clay will wash away
    My fair lady

    Build it up with stone so strong
    Stone so strong, Stone so strong
    Build it up with stone so strong
    My fair lady

    Stone so strong will last so long
    Last so long, Last so long
    Stone so strong will last so long
    My fair lady
