    Love Looks So Well On You
    Composer(s): Alan Bergman - Lew Spence - Michael Keith
    Performer(s): Frank Sinatra; Simavi



    Like moonlight looks on a country side, like a rose that's silvered with dew
    Like sunlight looks on a meadow, love looks so well on you
    Like children look on a carousel, all the joys they feel shining through
    Like picnics look on a Sunday, love looks so well on you
    It's bright as the starlight in your eyes, with stardust in your hair
    And oh, that expression on your face, is one you should always wear
    Everyday you grow even lovelier, yes, you do, my darling, you do
    I love you every day of your life, cause love looks so well on you

    M I double S I double S I double P I
    M I double S I double S I double P I
    Right in the middle of the cotton belt
    Down in the Mississippi Delta
    Wearin' last years possum belt
    Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta

    Have me a little that Johnny cake
    A little bit of that apple pan dowdy
    Picking them scuppernon's off that vine
    Chigger bite, it's goin' to beat howdy

    Ate me a bucket of Muscadine
    Sit on the riverbank after dark
    Drop my line down a crawdad hole
    Do him in with a scaly bark

    One-ree-o-ree-ee-reeanni

    Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta

    Sittin and scratchin' mosquito bites
    Old fox done give him the slip
    Watchin' the mornin' glories grow
    In Biloxi on an overnight trip

    I bet five dollars to win two bits
    Eat a peppermint stick on Sunday
    Ain't no use in'a hurrying up
    Can't leave till a week from Monday

    Ganz Paris träumt von der Liebe
    denn dort ist sie ja zuhaus
    Ganz Paris träumt dieses Märchen
    wenn es wahr wird
    Ganz Paris grüßt dann das Pärchen
    das ein Paar wird
    Ganz Paris singt immer wieder
    immer wieder nur vom Glück
    Wer verliebt ist
    wer verliebt ist in die Liebe
    kommt nach Paris zurück

    Hmmm-hmm...

    Ganz Paris...

    Love Lives Here
    Composer(s): Ronnie Lane - Ron Wood - Rod Stewart
    Performer(s): Faces



    It's hard to believe that this is the place
    Where we were so happy all our lives
    Now so empty inside and feelin' no pain
    Waitin' for a hammer and a big ball and chain

    They can tear it all down and build something new
    Then only I'll remember what was here
    Tomorrow comes easy, just another day gone
    How hong will I have to keep returning?

    Now I look back, think I've known all the time
    I've been fightin' myself for so long
    All the vows that we made, gone for old rags and lumber
    Disappear on a cart down the road

    Ik Zal Je Missen ((Adapted from: Mississippi (by Pussycat) - 1975)) Composer(s): Werner Theunissen - Peter Van Laet Performer(s): Mama's Jasje - 2007



    Het water stroomt al jaren naar de zee
    En het neemt zoveel verhalen met zich mee
    Maar dat van ons behoeft niet zoveel woorden
    Alleen een paar akkoorden
    Vertellen zoveel meer

    In gedachten ben je nog altijd bij mij
    En ik hoor nog al de dingen die je zei
    Het was toen zoveel mooier dan het heden
    Ik kan je niet vergeten
    Je leeft nog diep in mij

    Ik zal je missen
    Ik vergeet je niet
    Bij wie of waar je ook mag zijn
    Ik weet het niet en dat doet pijn
    Want ons verhaal was niet voorbij

    Ik zal je missen
    Ik heb zoveel verdriet
    Elke dag denk ik aan jou
    Maar hoe graag ik dat ook wou
    Je komt niet meer terug

    Ik speel nog steeds jouw lied
    Op mijn gitaar
    Want het afscheid valt me
    Nog altijd zo zwaar

    Dit blijf ik doen
    Om jou niet te vergeten
    Hou vast aan het verleden
    Ik hou nog steeds van jou

    Ik zal je missen
    Ik vergeet je niet
    Elke dag denk ik aan jou
    Maar hoe graag ik dat ook wou
    Je komt niet meer terug

    Elke dag denk ik aan jou
    Maar hoe graag ik dat ook wou
    Je komt niet meer terug

    Gangland
    Composer(s): Clive Burr; Steve Harris; Adrian Smith
    Performer(s): Iron Maiden; Steel Prophet



    Shadows may hide you but also may be your grave
    You're running today maybe tomorrow you'll be saved
    You pray for daylight to save you for a while
    You wonder if your children will face the killer's smile

    Dead men -- tell no tales
    In Gangland -- murder's up for sale
    Dead men -- tell no tales
    In Gangland -- where jail birds die

    Face at the window leers into your own
    But it's only your reflection still you tremble in your bones
    How long can you hide? How long till they come?
    A rat in a trap but you've got to survive

    Once you were glad to be free for a while
    The air tasted good and the world was your friend
    Then came the day when the hard times began
    Now your alone but alive for how long?

    A knife at your throat another body on the pile
    A contract to keep and it's service with a smile
    Murder for vengeance or murder for gain
    Death on the streets or a blackened out jail

    Dead men -- tell no tales
    In Gangland -- murder's up for sale
    Dead men -- tell no tales
    In Gangland -- where jail birds die

    In Gangland you tell no tales

    Mississippi ((Dutch Version: Ik Zal Je Missen (by Mama's Jasje) - 2007)) Composer(s): Werner Theunissen First release by: Pussycat - 1975 Covered by multiple other artists



    Where you can hear a country song from far
    And someone plays the honky-tonk guitar
    Where all the lights will go out one by one
    The people join the sun
    And the wind takes it away

    Where the Mississippi rolls down to the sea
    And lovers found the place they'd like to be
    How many times before the song was ending
    Love and understanding
    Everywhere around

    Mississippi, I'll remember you
    Whenever I should go away
    I'll be longing for the day
    That I will be returning again
    Mississippi, you'll be on my mind
    Everytime I hear this song
    Mississippi roll along
    Until the end of time

    Now the country song forever lost its soul
    When the guitar player turned to rock & roll
    And everytime when summer nights are falling
    I will always be calling, dreams of yesterday

    Mississippi, I'll remember you
    Whenever I should go ...

    Gang Bang
    Performer(s): Alex Harvey



    There once was a woman with wings
    Happy with the simple things
    She had silk suspenders and high heeled, stocking thighs
    Helping me in my need
    She was a friend, indeed
    She was my baby until the day she died

    Ain't nothin' like a gang bang
    Ain't nothin' like a gang bang
    Ain't nothin' like a gang bang to blow away the blues
    (repeat)

    She was a woman who was twice my size
    She looked into my eyes
    She said "Only you can blow my blues away"
    She said "I'll tell you what to do
    Bring all your friends with you
    And you can come up and see me any ol' time of day"

    Ain't nothin' like a gang bang
    Ain't nothin' like a gang bang
    Ain't nothin' like a gang bang to blow away the blues, ahhh
    (repeat)

    There were twenty-seven guys
    An unexpected surprise
    She just kept on rockin' 'til the night was gone
    She was smilin' through the tears
    For a hundred and fifty years
    Just lickin' her lips and helpin' me along

    Ain't nothin' like a gang bang
    Ain't nothin' like a gang bang
    Ain't nothin' like a gang bang to blow away the blues

    Love Lifted Me
    Composer(s): Preston Ross - Howard Smith
    Performer(s): Kenny Rogers



    I was sinking deep in sin
    Far from the peaceful shore
    Very deeply stained within
    Sinking to rise no more
    But the Master of the sea

    Heard my despairing cry
    From the waters lifted me
    Now safe am I

    Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
    When nothing else could help
    Love lifted me
    Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
    When nothing else could help
    Love lifted me

    Souls in danger look above
    Jesus completely saves
    He will lift you by his love
    Out of the angry waves

    But the master of the sea
    Billows His will obey
    He your saviour wants to be
    Be saved today

    Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
    When nothing else could help
    Love lifted me
    Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
    When nothing else could help
    Love lifted me

    Hit it, Hal

    Early in the morning, she hitched a ride down to Louisville
    Holding onto a hundred dollar bill
    Dressed herself like a Cajun Queen in New Orleans, baby
    Yeah, she looked good, like a lady

    Do it to me, James

    And the Mississippi River runs like molasses in the summertime
    And me, you know, I don't hardly mind

    Sipping on a beer in Bourbon Street and I'm sitting easy
    Don't get me wrong, it takes a lot to please me

    Have a seat and take a load off your feet, and she said ´Yes´
    So I said, ´I like your dress'
    Swamps all around make you feel kind of funny, don't they, honey
    She crossed her legs and looked at me funny

    Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doing
    Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doing (what you're doing)
    Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doing
    Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doing

    Love Lies Bleeding
    Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin
    Performer(s): Elton John



    The roses in the window box
    Have tilted to one side
    Everything about this house
    Was born to grow and die

    Oh it doesn't seem a year ago
    To this very day
    You said I'm sorry honey
    If I don't change the pace
    I can't face another day

    And love lies bleeding in my hand
    Oh it kills me to think of you with another man
    I was playing rock and roll and you were just a fan
    But my guitar couldn't hold you
    So I split the band
    Love lies bleeding in my hands

    I wonder if those changes
    Have left a scar on you
    Like all the burning hoops of fire
    That you and I passed through

    You're a bluebird on a telegraph line
    I hope you're happy now
    Well if the wind of change comes down your way girl
    You'll make it back somehow

    Emory Joseph; RatDog



    I turn and walk away then I come 'round again
    It looks as though tomorrow I'll do pretty much the same

    I must turn down your offer but I'd like to ask a break
    You know I'm ready to give everything for anything I take

    Someone called my name you know I turned around to see
    It was midnight in the Mission and the bells were not for me

    Come again, walking along in the Mission in the rain
    Come again, walking along in the Mission in the rain

    Ten years ago, I walked this street my dreams were riding tall
    Tonight I would be thankful Lord, for any dream at all

    Some folks would be happy just to have one dream come true
    But everything you gather is just more that you can lose

    Come again, walking along in the Mission in the rain
    Come again, walking along in the Mission in the rain

    All the things I planned to do I only did half way
    Tomorrow will be Sunday born of rainy Saturday

    There's some satisfaction in the San Francisco rain
    No matter what comes down the Mission always looks the same

    Come again, walking along in the Mission in the rain

    Jeux sans frontières
    Jeux sans frontières

    Hans plays with Lotte, Lotte plays with Jane
    Jane plays with Willi, Willi is happy again
    Suki plays with Leo, Sacha plays with Britt
    Adolf builts a bonfire, Enrico plays with it

    Whistling tunes we hide in the dunes by the seaside
    Whistling tunes we're kissing baboons in the jungle

    It's a knockout
    If looks could kill, they probably will
    In games without frontiers, war without tears
    If looks could kill, they probably will
    In games without frontiers, war without tears
    Games without frontiers, war without tears

    Jeux sans frontières
    Jeux sans frontières
    Jeux sans frontières

    André has a red flag, Chiang Ching's is blue
    They all have hills to fly them on except for Lin Tai Yu
    Dressing up in costumes, playing silly games
    Hiding out in tree-tops shouting out rude names

    Whistling tunes we hide in the dunes by the seaside
    Whistling tunes we piss on the goons in the jungle

    It's a knockout
    If looks could kill they probably will
    In games without frontiers, war without tears
    If looks could kill they probably will
    In games without frontiers, war without tears
    Games without frontiers, war without tears

    Love Letters In The Sand
    ((Danish Version: Breve I Sandet (Gustav Winckler) - 1957))
    Composer(s): Nick Kenny - Charles Kenny - J. Fred Coots
    First release by: Dolly Dawn - 1931
    Covered by multiple other artists



    On a day like today
    We pass the time away
    Writing love letters in the sand

    Oh, you laughed when I cried
    Each time I saw the tide
    Take our love letters in the sand

    You made a vow that you would always be true
    But somehow, that vow meant nothing to you

    Now my poor heart just aches
    With every wave that breaks
    Over love letters in the sand

    Say you love me
    Say those three words and

    Deeper than a wishing well (how strong?)
    Stronger than a magic spell
    My love, for you
    It's wider than the widest sea (how long?)
    Longer than a memory (How sweet?)
    Sweeter than a honey tree
    My love, uhmmm, for you

    Give me your heart of gold
    Your heavenly magic touch
    To cherish have and hold
    I need your love so much

    Say you love me
    Say those three words and
    I will give my love to you

    My love is warmer than a day in spring (how bright?)
    Brighter than a diamond ring (how great?)
    Greater than a mighty king
    My love, for you
    Is taller than the tallest tree (how soft?)
    Softer than a summer breeze
    Oh I ask you please
    Give your love, your love
    Sweet love to me

    How high (ummm)
    How deep (ummm)
    How strong (ummm)
    How wide (ummm)
    How long (ummm)

    Gamblin' Man
    Composer(s): Woody Guthrie; Lonnie Donegan
    Performer(s): Lonnie Donegan



    I've gambled down in Washington
    And I've gambled up in Maine
    I'm going down into Georgia
    To knock down my last game
    I'm a gamblin' man man man
    I'm a gamblin' man

    Well I'd not been in Washington
    Many more weeks than three
    When I fell in love with a pretty little girl
    And she fell in love with me
    I'm a gamblin' man
    I'm a gamblin' man

    I'm a gamblin' man man man
    I'm a gamblin' man man man
    I'm a gamblin' man man man
    I'm a gamblin' man

    I'm a gamblin' man man man
    I'm a gamblin' man man man
    I'm a gamblin' man man man
    I'm a gamblin' man

    She took me in her parlour
    Cooled me with her fan
    She said oh mother, mother
    I'm in love with a gamblin' man
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man

    She said oh daughter, daughter
    How could you treat me so
    Leave your poor old mother
    With that gambler go
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man

    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    A gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man

    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man

    I would not marry a farmer
    He's always in the rain
    I'd rather marry a gamblin' man
    With a gold watch and chain
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man

    And I'd never marry a railroad man
    Here's the reason why
    I've never known a railroad man
    Wouldn't tell his wife a life
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man

    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man

    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man

    How about Jimmy

    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man

    How about

    I hear that train a-coming
    A-coming round the curve
    Whistling, a-screaming
    straining every nerve
    He's a gamblin' man man man
    He's a gamblin' man

    Mi Manchi Tu
    English Title: Missing You
    Performer(s): Paola Turci
    (Originally performed by: John Waite)



    Non lo sai ma ci sei tu
    In fondo a questo cuore
    E poi ancora tu la cosa migliore
    Che non ritroverò mai più
    Così lontano perché
    Io che ti vorrei vicino a me
    Mi bevo un the
    Vaniglia e lacrime
    E un sapore di malinconia
    È colpa tua o è colpa mia
    Il fatto che tu non ci sia
    Mi manchi tanto lo sai
    Ma sei troppo lontano ormai
    Non senti che ti chiamo
    Ma non lo sai cos’è
    Ti sto gridando ti amo
    E allora perché
    Perché guardo tra i dettagli
    E non mi piaccio più comunque sia
    Mi convinco che sono magica
    E pronta per un’altra follia
    E poi sbaglio e poi piango
    E poi magari è colpa mia
    Mi manchi tanto lo sai
    Ma sei così lontano ormai
    Non senti che ti chiamo
    Ma cosa fai cos’è
    Ti sto gridando ti amo
    E allora perché
    Perché la notte non perdona mai
    E tu come me allora soffrirai
    Ma sei così lontano io che ti vorrei
    Ma dove sei? Dove sei?
    Non senti che ti chiamo
    Quando verrai dame
    Ti sto gridando ti amo
    Ecco cos’è è che
    È che mi manchi tu
    Oh mi manchi tu
    Perché la notte non perdona mai
    E mi sento sola ormai
    Non senti che ti chiamo
    Ma non lo sai cos’è
    È che mi manchi tu
    E allora ecco cos’è
    Mi manchi tu
    Oh mi manchi tu
    Non senti che ti chiamo
