Lovesick Blues
((French Version: Je Ne Pense Qu'à L'amour (Eddy Mitchell) - 1963))
Composer(s): Irving Mills - Cliff Friend
First release by: Elsie Clark - 1922
Covered by multiple other artists



I got a feelin' called the blues
Since my baby said good-bye
Lawd I don't know what l'll do
All I do is sit and sigh
That last long day she said goodbye
Well Lawd, I thought I would cry
She'd do me, she'd do you
She's got that kind of lovin'
Lawd, I love to hear her
When she calls me sweet daddy

Such a beautiful dream
I hate to think it's all over
I lost my heart it seems
I've grown so used to you somehow
But I'm nobody's sugar daddy now
And I'm lonesome, I got the lovesick blues

I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal
That's whats the matter with me
I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal
But she don't care about me

Lawd I tried and tried to keep her satisfied
But she just wouldn't stay
So now that she is leavin'
This is all I say ...

Mon Corps
Composer(s): Georges Moustaki
Performer(s): Georges Moustaki



Mon corps ce compagnon de jeux et de souffrances
Mon corps que je partage et qui revient toujours
S'endormir avec moi dans le même silence
Épuisé de plaisir et rassasié d'amour

Mon corps cet étranger que parfois j'apprivoise
Pour en faire l'offrande à la dame de coeur
Qui m'a offert le sien son corps que je pavoise
Aux couleurs du valet et celles du joker

Mon corps que je connais depuis mon plus jeune âge
Qui n'a que moi au monde et qui veille qur moi
Qui reçoit les honneurs et subit les outrages
Mon corps mon âme soeur et mon frère siamois

Mon corps ce vagabond qui m'emmène en ballade
Insatiable de tout et qui n'a peur de rien
D'accord pour la luxure et prêt pour la croisade
Capitaine au long cours ou simple galérien

Mon corps ce compagnon de jeux et de souffrances
Qui me montre la route quand je perds le nord
Qui me suit pas à pas dans toutes mes errances
Fidèles l'un à l'autre à la vie à la mort

Get Off My Cloud
Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards
Performer(s): The Rolling Stones;
and various other artists



I live in an apartment on the ninety-ninth floor of my block
And I sit at home looking out the window
Imagining the world has stopped
Then in flies a guy who's all dressed up like a Union Jack
And says, I've won five pounds if I have his kind of detergent pack

I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby

The telephone is ringing, I say, "Hi, it's me
Who is there on the line?"
A voice says, "Hi, hello, how are you?"
Well, I guess I'm doin' fine
He says, "It's three a.m., there's too much noise
Don't you people ever wanna go to bed?
Just 'cause you feel so good, do you have to drive me out of my head?"

I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby

I was sick and tired, fed up with this
And decided to take a drive downtown
It was so very queit and peaceful
There was nobody, not a soul around
I laid myself out, I was so tired
And I started to dream
In the morning the parking tickets were just like a flag stuck on my window screen

I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby

I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud...

Je Ne Pense Qu'à L'amour
((Adapted from: Lovesick Blues (Elsie Clark) - 1922))
Composer(s): Irving Mills - Cliff Friend - Fernand Bonifay
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell - 1963



"Moi, je ne pense qu’à l’Amour
Mais l’Amour veut-il de moi?
Je ne pense qu’à l’Amour
Mais lui pense-t-il à moi?
J’aimerais pourtant bien rencontrer
La fille dont j’ai toujours rêvé
Impatient, je l’attends
Je l’attends depuis longtemps
Dans le grand jardin fleuri
De mes longues nuits
Je ne changerai pas
Je ne pense qu’à l’Amour
Et c’est bien mon droit
Car à vingt ans, c’est le moment
De mener son cœur tambour battant
Et de vivre sa vie
A sa fantaisie
Je peux danser, m’amuser
Essayer de me saouler
Dans les rythmes endiablés
Je peux rester enfermé
Dans ma chambre, sans parler
Pendant des soirées
Je peux sortir, revenir
Fouiller dans mes souvenirs
Rien ne peut me guérir
Je reste seul, abandonné
L ‘Amour m’a oublié
Mais, je ne pense qu’à l’Amour
Car l’Amour c’est tout pour moi
Je ne pense qu’à l’Amour
Qui me glisse entre les doigts
J’aimerais pourtant bien rencontrer
La fille dont j’ai toujours rêvé
Impatient, je l’attends
Je l’attends depuis longtemps
Dans le grand jardin fleuri
De mes longues nuits
Je ne changerai pas
Je ne pense qu’à l’Amour
Et c’est bien mon droit
Je ne suis pas celui qu’on croit
Celle qui viendra le comprendra
Car je n’ai qu’une envie, l’aimer pour toute la vie
Je n’ai qu’une envie, l’aimer pour toute la vie"

Lovely Rita
Composer(s): John Lennon - Paul McCartney
First release by: The Beatles - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists



Lovely Rita meter maid ...
Lovely Rita meter maid ...
Lovely Rita meter maid ...
Nothing can come between us
When it gets dark I tow your heart away
Standing by a parking meter, when I caught a glimpse of Rita
filling in a ticket in her little white book
In a cap she looked much older
And the bag across her shoulder
Made her look a little like a military man
Lovely Rita meter maid ...
May I inquire discreetly
When are you free to take some tea with me
Took her out and tried to win her
Had a laugh and over dinner
Told her I would really like to see her again
Got the bill and Rita paid it
Took her home I nearly made it
Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two
Oh, Lovely Rita meter maid ...
Where would I be without you
Give us a wink and make me think of you

Mon Copain Julie
(Adapted from: Southern Nights - 1975)
Composer(s): Allen Toussaint - Pierre Delanoë - Claude Lemesle
Performer(s): Joe Dassin



Un copain
C'est sympa quand ça s'appelle Julie
Quand c'est tout blond
Quand ça met des talons
Et que ça dort parfois dans mon lit

Un copain
C'est sympa quand c'est une fille jolie
Quand ça se déshabille
Et quand ça rougit pour un petit rien
Quand ça fait tout pour qu'on soit bien

Un copain
Qui ressemble en tout à sa maman
Qui fait l'amour comme Dorothée Lamour
Et qui attend depuis longtemps
Le cheval blanc du prince charmant

Un copain
Sur qui ça retourne les copains
Et de qui l'on rêve
Comme on rêve d'une star
Avant de glisser dans le noir
Le soir, le soir ...

Un copain
Que j'appelle quelques fois très tard
Qui sait me dire des mots qui me font rire
Et emporte au petit matin
Mes chagrins, mon cafard

Un copain
Qui ressemble à l'amie de toujours
Qui ne tient pas deux places
Mais qui remplace un amour

Un copain
C'est sympa quand ça s'appelle Julie
Un copain
C'est sympa quand c'est une fille jolie

Lovely Nights

Pick her up and make her feel she is somebody

Mon Combat
Performer(s): Aïda Aznavour



Mon combat
Je l'ai livré avec mon âme
Et la foi
Qui dormait au fond de mon coeur
Me dévorait de mille flammes
Et sa voix, et sa voix
Me faisait rêver de bonheur
À l'amour
Qu'est le combat que tous les êtres
Tour à tour
Livrent au vent du désespoir
À l'amour
Qu'est le seul bien qui nous pénètre
Chaque jour, chaque jour
Avec plus de force et d'espoir

Mon combat
C'est la lutte de tout le monde
Pour son droit
En des jours meilleurs
Mon combat
Je l'ai livré avec mon âme
Et la foi
Qui dormait au fond de mon coeur
Mon combat
Me dévorait de mille flammes
Et sa voix, et sa voix
Me faisait rêver de bonheur

Mon combat
Je l'ai livré avec furie
Et la joie
Que je récolte est bien à moi
Mon combat
Je l'ai gagné avec ma vie
Pour que toi et moi
Nous ayons l'amour
J'ai livré un jour
Mon combat

Get Me To The World On Time
Composer(s): Jill Jones; Annette Tucker
Performer(s): The Electric Prunes



Here I go (higher, higher)
Here I go (higher, higher)
Here I go, go, go, go, go
You gotta get me to the world on time
You gotta get me to the world on time

The minute you walk in the room I break into a sweat
My hands begin to shake so bad I can't light my cigarrette
Then you start walkin' towards me and my cool comes all undone
If I could get my feet to move I'd turn around and run

My pulse is beatin' faster
And I'm headin' for disaster

Here I go (higher, higher)
Here I go (higher, higher)
Here I go
Get me to the world on time
You gotta get me to the world on time

One kiss from you and my whole body starts to actin' strange
You shake up all my hormones, you put me through a change
This chemical reaction isn't easy to refine
You drive me to distraction, you disturb my peace of mind

You got me spinning like a top now
And I don't know how to stop now

Is this what loves all about
Lately I feel so without
Wild sensations
Sweet frustrations
You get me goin' and theres no slowin' me down

Here I go
Whoa here I go, go

Lovely Lady

Performer(s): Kenny Baker
and multiple other artists



Lovely lady, I'm falling madly
In love with you
It's a feeling beyond concealing
What can I do
Take my heart, it's yours alone
To keep forever
Lovely lady, I'm falling madly
In love with you

Mon Coeur Vinyle
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell



Un blues digital
Me "spleen", me fait mal
Une chanson "laser"
Peut rayer mon cœur
À peine entrée dans ma vie
Tu cherches déjà la sortie
J'suis plus ton "top" plus ton "hit"

Et tu brises mon cœur vinyle

Y'en a qu'en pleurent
D'autres qui dansent
Pas moi, pas moi
Y'en a qu'en meurent
D'autres qui chantent
Comme moi, comme moi
J'ai p't'être trop donné
Je peux plus t'étonner
Plus t'étonner
J'suis p't'être plus ton style
P't'être plus ton style
Plus ton style
Et tu brises mon cœur de vinyle

Je casse comme un disque
Mi-cire mi-plastique
J'suis pas un record
Pour une "collector"
À peine entré dans ta vie
Tu m'montres déjà la sortie
J'suis plus ton "top" plus ton type
Et tu brises mon cœur vinyle

Y'en a qu'en pleurent
D'autres qui dansent
Pas moi, pas moi
Mais les sans-cœur s'en balancent
Comme toi comme toi
J'suis p't'être trop fragile
P't'être plus ton style
Plus ton style
J'suis p't'être trop fragile
P't'être trop fragile
Trop fragile
Et tu brises mon cœur de vinyle

Y'en a qu'en pleurent
D'autres qui dansent
Pas moi, pas moi
Y'en a qu'en meurent
D'autres qui chantent
Comme moi, comme moi
J'suis p't'être plus ton style
Mon cœur de vinyle
C'est p't'être trop fragile
Un cœur de vinyle

Then haul off and boot me...
And get me to the church
Get me to the church...

Lovely Days
Composer(s): Danny Kirwan

Lovely days in the month of May
Sitting in the sunlight
Singing a spring song

Lovers wrapped upon a lawn
To meet another day
Meet another sun

When the birds awake and fly
And paint their pictures in the sky

Lovely days in the month of May
Sitting in the sunlight
Singing a spring song

Lovers wrapped upon a lawn
To meet another day
Meet another sun

When the birds awake and fly
And paint their pictures in the sky

Mon cœur va crier
A son cœur que je l'aime
Mon cœur va prier
Dans le ciel l'amour ardent

Mon cœur va planter
Dans son cœur ton emblème
Mon cœur va danser
Sur le ciel, brûle un volcan

Si tu t'attardes, prend garde regarde le feu
Mais à sa flamme ne brûle pas c'est mieux

Mon cœur va jeter
Le poison de je t'aime
Dans son cœur léger
Sans pitié va mon cœur va

Que tu chantes, enchantes, tourmentes ou montes
Moi je subis ta loi
Je résonne, je tonne, sermonne pardonne
C'est ainsi chaque fois

Mon cœur va crier
A son cœur que je l'aime
Mon cœur va prier
Dans le ciel l'amour ardent

Mon cœur va planter
Dans son cœur ton emblème
Mon cœur va danser
Sur le ciel brûle un volcan

De part le monde, la ronde qui gronde toujours
Quoi que l'on fasse chaque jour c'est l'amour

Mon cœur fait craquer
Ta joie de mi-carême
Et va le chercher
Dépêche toi mon cœur bat
Dépêche toi mon cœur bat
Dépêche toi mon cœur bat

of all the sacrifice

I'm gonna get lucky
real love's so hard to find
I feel at last this love is mine

Lovely Day

Covered by multiple other artists



When I wake up in the morning, love
And the sunlight hurts my eyes
And something without warning, love
Bears heavy on my mind

Then I look at you
And the world's all right with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day ... 
lovely day, lovely day, lovely day ...

When the day that lies ahead of me
Seems impossible to face
When someone else instead of me
Always seems to know the way 

Then I look at you
And the world's all right with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day ...

When the day that lies ahead of me
Seems impossible to face
When someone else instead of me
Always seems to know the way

Then I look at you
And the world's alright with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day ...

Mon Coeur Est Un Violon
Performer(s): André Claveau



Mon cœur est un violon
Sur lequel ton archet joue
Et qui vibre tout du long
Appuyé contre ta joue
Tantôt l'air est vif et gai
Comme un refrain de folie
Tantôt le son fatigué
Traîne avec mélancolie

Dans la nuit qui s'achève
Mon cœur est plein de toi
La musique est un rêve
Qui vibre sous tes doigts
Sous tes doigts la caresse
Rend mon désir si fort
Qu'il va jusqu'à l'ivresse
Et meurt à la fin de l'accord

Mon cœur est un violon
Sur lequel ton archet joue
Et qui vibre tout du long
Appuyé contre ta joue
Tantôt l'air est vif et gai
Comme un refrain de folie
Tantôt le son fatigué
Traîne avec mélancolie

Et vibrant à l'unisson
Mon cœur est un violon...

Get It When You Can
Composer(s): Alex Del Zoppo; Fred Herrera
Performer(s): Sweetwater



I'm gonna tell you a thing or two
And it's the truth you might find
If there's something you want to do
You'd better choose the right time

Chorus:  You've got to get it when you can
You've got to recognize your chance
Whatever you need
Whatever it be
You've got to get it when you can

Now, Brother Albert said there ain't no hope
Without the stuff that I need
I looked in my bag, I'm at the end of my rope
Just got a very few seeds

Chorus

Now listen people, do what I say
I know you know that it's right
And if you're looking, don't be afraid
'Cause you can get it tonight

Chorus

You've got to get it when you can
You've got to get it when you can
Whatever you need
I said whatever it be
You've got to get it when you can

Loveless Love
Composer(s): W.C. Handy
Performer(s): Alberta Hunter 
and multiple other artists



Love is like a hydrant, it turns off and on
Like some friendships when your money's gone
Love stands in with the loan sharks when your heart's in pawn

If I had some strong wings like an aeroplane
Had some broad wings like some aeroplane
I would fly away forever
never to come again
For love oh love oh loveless love
Has set our hearts are gold-less gold
From milk-less milk and silk-less silk
We are growing used to soul-less souls

Such grafting times we never saw
That's why we have a pure full law
In everything we find a flaw
Even love oh love oh loveless love

Just to fly away from loveless love
