Caldonia ((French Version: Caldonia (by Eddy Mitchell) - 1965)) Composer(s): Fleecie Moore First release by: Louis Jordan & his Tympani Five - 1945 Covered by multiple other artists
Walkin' with my baby she's got great big feet She's long, lean, and lanky and ain't had nothing to eat She's my baby and I love her just the same Crazy 'bout that woman cause Caldonia is her name
Caldonia, Caldonia What makes your big head so hard?
I love her. I love her just the same Crazy 'bout that woman cause Caldonia is her name
You know what mama told me? Mama said son ... Keep away from that woman - she's gonna take all your money Hey, hey, hey boy ... Don't laugh about my mama - you hear that? Hey man I told you man ... You don't know what you doin' boy - don't laugh about my mama
Caldonia, Caldonia What makes your big head so hard?
I love her I love her just the same Crazy 'bout that woman 'cause Caldonia is her name
Soul Of The Sea Composer(s): Nancy Wilson - Ann Wilson Performer(s): Heart
Today you looked around to my heart's call This tiny life ain't been strangled after all Time, time, time, time Never ask what's become of us Just dedicate your sorrow Here and now To the soul of the sea And me
Rushin' to me You turned around to my song's call You dreamer in the sand Just lie there laughing til the fall Kindest lover I can't stay alone tonight Bring me all your love Here and now Come rushin' to me
Wake up late Without a smile Telephone rings You run like a child On the street Into the day The people I meet Have nothing to say
No smile No sorrow No laughter No tomorrow They talk hen to hen They talk about their men And practice all the tricks for them Too soon nightime's coming on Deep in the darkness feeling alone
No rain No seed No dreams No silence Far away today Mama ocean hold me to you Rock me on your waves And tell me... Is it all true?
Time, time, time, time Never ask what's become of us Dedicate your sorrow Here and now To the soul the sea and me
C'était une guitare espagnole Née d'un bouleau ou d'un sapin Dans une boutique de Barcelone Un beau matin du mois de juin Au fond du coeur une étiquette Indique son identité Et sa parole chaude et discrète Était bien douce à écouter
Dans une vitrine du vieux Bruxelles On la suspendit par le cou Puis certain jour une demoiselle S'en vint l'acheter pour quelques sous Adieu flamencos chauds d'Espagne Andalousie et corridas Jolie guitare, ma compagne Adèle tu t'appeleras
Pour répondre à la voix divine Qui l'invitait à sa moisson La pérsonnelle - c'est moi - quitta la ville Pour un couvent des environs Adèle partit dans les bagages Et commença son noviciat Joyeuse et pleine de courage Et chanta Dieu à pleine voix
Sur tous les tons de toute son âme Adèle s'est vouée au Seigneur Et ses chansons partout proclament Que servir Dieu c'est son bonheur Derrière les harpes et les cithares Qui forment l'orchestre des cieux On entendra, humble guitare Un jour, Adèle, chez le Bon Dieu

Lookin' For Love Composer(s): Wanda Mallette - Bob Morrison - Pat Ryan First release by: Johnny Lee - 1980 Covered by multiple other artists
Well, I spent a lifetime lookin' for you Single bars and good time lovers were never true Playin' a fools game, hopin' to win Tellin' those sweet lies and losin' again
I was lookin' for love In all the wrong places Lookin' for love in too many faces Searchin' their eyes, lookin' for traces Of what I'm dreamin' of Hopin' to find a friend and a lover I'll bless the day I discover Another heart lookin' for love
I was alone then, no love in sight An' I did everything I could to get me through the night Don''t know where it started or where it might end I'd turn to a stranger just like a friend
I was lookin' for love In all the wrong places Lookin' for love in too many faces Searchin' their eyes, lookin' for traces Of what I'm dreamin' of Hopin' to find a friend and a lover I'll bless the day I discover Another heart lookin' for love
You came a knockin' at my heart's door You're everything I've been lookin' for
No more lookin' for love In all the wrong places Lookin' for love in too many faces Searchin' their eyes, lookin' for traces Of what I'm dreamin' of Now that I found a friend and a lover God bless the day I discovered you
Oh you, lookin' for love In all the wrong places (Lookin' for love) in too many faces Searchin' their eyes, lookin' for traces Of what I'm dreamin' of Now that I've found a friend and a lover God bless the day I discovered you Oh you, lookin' for love In all the wrong places ...

Good bye to play boys those hey hey hey boys good bye to everyone but you my love no more heart aches no more heart breaks I swear by all the stars above, well on my soul, my love, my heart I'll miss you darling from now on Cause now you set my soul on fire and I really had my fun
Soeur Anne Composer(s): Michel Emer Performer(s): Edith Piaf
Sur Anne, ne vois-tu rien venir?
Je vois des soldats couverts d'armes Tout prêts à mourir et à tuer Partout, je ne vois que des larmes Le monde semble s'y habituer Je vois, plus violente que la peste La haine couvrir l'horizon Les hommes se déchirent, se détestent Frontières, mitrailleuses, prisons L'amour, qui n'a plus rien à faire Viens de nous quitter à son tour Sur terre, il était solitaire L'amour a besoin de l'amour
Sur Anne, ne vois-tu rien venir?
Je vois des enfants sans leur mère Je vois des parents sans enfants Et des paysans sans leurs terres Je vois des terres sans paysans Je vois des grandes maisons vides Et de grands vides dans les maisons Des gens au visage livide Qui marchent sans chanter de chansons Des hommes qui essaient de sourire Des femmes au regard si peureux Des vieux qui ne savent plus rire Des jeunes qui sont déjà vieux
Sur Anne, ne vois-tu rien venir?
Je vois une grande lumière Qui semble venir de très loin Je vois un enfant et sa mère Mon Dieu, qu'ils sont loin, qu'ils sont loin... Voici qu'ils s'approchent de la terre L'enfant a grandi, je le vois Il vient partager nos misères Déjà, il apporte sa croix Bientôt, sa divine colère Chassera le démon pour toujours Bientôt reviendra sur la terre La vie, la pitié et l'amour

Io Senza Te Composer(s): N. Martinetti - P. Reber First performance by: Peter, Sue & Marc - 1981
Dopo la tempesta camminiamo un po' Sulla sabbia pesta chiacchieriamo un po' Ho sbagliato io, hai sbagliato tu Quel che è stato è stato, non parliamone più
Io senza te, cosa farei Io non respiro se tu non ci sei Io senza te, oh ... cosa sarei Una farfalla che non vola più
Prenderti nel vento come un anno fa Stesso sentimento, stessa intensità E trovar parole che non dissi mai Mentre il sole muore sul mio cuore stai
Io senza te, cosa farei Della mia vita e dei giorni miei Io senza te, oh ... come farei Amore mio t'inventerei
Io senza te, cosa farei, oh ... Io senza te, oh ... come farei Amore mio t'inventerei

Un Banc, Un Arbre, Une Rue Composer(s): Jean-Pierre Bourtayre; Yves Desca First release by: Séverine - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists
On a tous un banc, un arbre ou une rue Où l'on a bercé nos rêves On a tous un banc, un arbre ou une rue Une enfance trop brève
Un jour ou l'autre il faut partir Pour se construire un avenir, un avenir Et c'est l'inoubliable instant Où l'on rend ses habits d'enfant, d'enfant
Chacun s'envole rempli d'espoir Sur le chemin qu'il s'est choisi, qu'il s'est choisi Vers la richesse ou vers la gloire Pourtant quel que soit notre but, notre but
Un jour ou l'autre il faut partir Pour se construire un avenir, un avenir Et c'est l'inoubliable instant Où l'on rend ses habits d'enfant, d'enfant
Chacun dans son coin d'horizon Ne défend que ses ambitions, ses ambitions Même si nous ne partageons rien Que nous reste-t-il en commun, en commun?
Un jour ou l'autre il faut partir Pour se construire un avenir, un avenir Et c'est l'inoubliable instant Où l'on rend ses habits d'enfant, d'enfant

Look What We Made (When We Made Love) Composer(s): Dave Loggins - Russell Smith Performer(s): Jonathan Edwards
You always said you never needed anyone else but me Now someone's come along and changed your mind `bout all that love can be
Now I don't even mind the way he takes up all you time I even think it's kind of sweet that he reminds you of me And it bring a tear to my eye and a smile to my face 'Cause I never felt so much love as when you hold him and say ...
Oh baby look what we made when we made love All by ourselves with some help from above In the middle of the night we really did something right Oh look what we made when we made love.
From the first time we met I knew I'd always give my love to you And the look that you gave me in return made all my dreams come true This new dream that we share has your eyes and my hair So healthy and strong with a mind of his own
And I thank the Lord everyday for our brand new family And to think it all started with just you and me
Oh baby look what we made when we made love All by ourselves with some help from above In the middle of the night we really did something right Oh look what we made when we made love
