No Orchids For My Lady Composer(s): Jack Strachey; Alan Stranks Performer(s): Frank Sinatra; Steve Conway; and various other artists
No orchids for my lady No sparkle in the wine For other lips have told my lady To pass beside this love of mine So theres no rapture in our meeting No kisses when we part The orchids I gave my lovely lady Were clutched on someone elses heart
No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed Composer(s): Richie Havens Performer(s): Richie Havens; and various other artists
Step out in the night When you get lonely Listen for the sounds City ears don't hear I know your cross is getting Heavier with every step But I know a man Who's walked miles for you
Stop! Stay the way you are Take a look at yourself Take a good look at yourself Can't turn to Mama 'Cause she'd only tell ya she told ya so That some of us are still learnin' That the real trick to life we all know
Light flashed today At the dawnin' Daytime, Nighttime We still don't see Why must we wait Until mornin' To wake up and be Wake up and be
Now you and I both know There's no such thing as up and down And even when your problems Got you goin' around and round Gotta talk like a man to Papa 'Cause he don't understand that other stuff Since we're part of the cross he's been carryin' I think our end has been draggin' Long enough
All right, all right All right, all right, all right Pick it up, pick it up Pick it up, pick it up!
No One Ever Tells You Composer(s): Hub Atwood; Carroll Coates Performer(s): Frank Sinatra; and various other artists
No one ever tells you what's it like to love and lose How it feels to waken and have breakfast with the blues How to go on living, how to face another day No one ever tells you the way No one ever tells you how it feels to walk alone Listening for those footsteps through the echo of your own Suddenly it hits you all those dreams weren't worth a dime 'Cause no one ever tells you in time Long before the icy winds of winter Autumn tells the swallows, time to fly Why did she pretend till the bitter end Till it broke my heart to say goodbye No one ever tells you that it's just another fling No one ever warns you when your heart begins to sing Someone tells you later all is fair in love and war But no one ever tells you before
No one ever tells you that it's just another fling No one ever warns you when your heart begins to sting Someone tells you later all is fair in love and war But no one ever tells you before It never comes easy, no one ever tells you before
Oh! Mr. Porter Composer(s): George Le Brunn; Thomas Le Brunn Performer(s): Marie Lloyd; Down East Band
Lately I just spent a week with my old Aunt Brown Came up to see wond'rous sights of famous London Town Just a week I had of it, all round the place we'd roam Wasn't I sorry on the day I had to go back home? Worried about with packing, I arrived late at the station Dropped my hatbox in the mud, the things all fell about Got my ticket, said 'good - bye' "Right away" the guard did cry But I found the train was wrong and shouted out
Oh! Mister Porter, what shall I do? I want to go to Birmingham And they're taking me on to Crewe Send me back to London as quickly as you can Oh! Mister Porter, what a silly girl I am!
The porter would not stop the train But I laughed and said "You must Keep your hair on, Mary Ann, and mind that you don't bust'" Some old gentleman inside declared that it was hard Said "Look out of the window, Miss, and try and call the guard" Didn't I, too, with all my might I nearly balanced over But my old friend grasp'd my leg, and pulled me back again Nearly fainting with the fright, I sank into his arms a sight Went into hysterics but I cried in vain
Oh! Mister Porter, what shall I do? I want to go to Birmingham And they're taking me on to Crewe Send me back to London as quickly as you can Oh! Mister Porter, what a silly girl I am!
On his clean old shirt-front then I laid my trembling head "Do take it easy, rest awhile" the dear old chappie said If you make a fuss of me and on me do not frown You shall have my mansion, dear, away in London Town Wouldn't you think me silly if I said I could not like him? Really he seemed a nice old boy, so I replied this way I will be your own for life Your imay doodle um little wife If you'll never tease me any more I say
Oh! Mister Porter, what shall I do? I want to go to Birmingham And they're taking me on to Crewe Send me back to London as quickly as you can Oh! Mister Porter, what a silly girl I am!
No One Will Ever Know Composer(s): Mel Foree; Fred Rose Performer(s): The Maddox Brothers; and various other artists
No one will ever know my heart is breaking Although a million tears start to flow I'll cry myself to sleep and wake up smiling I'll miss you, but no one will ever know
I'll tell them we grew tired of each other And realize our dreams could never be I'll even make believe I never loved you Then no one will ever know the truth but me
No one will ever know how much I'm pining Each time the past comes back to haunt me so No one will ever see the tears I'm hiding You've hurt me, but no one will ever know
I'll tell them I've found true love with another That I was glad the day you set me free I'll even make believe I never loved you Then no one will ever know the truth but me
No One Is There Composer(s): Nico Performer(s): Nico; Lou Reed
Across from behind my window screen Demon is dancing down the scene In a crucial parody Demon is dancing down the scene He is calling and throwing His arms up in the air And no one is there
All of them are missing as the game Comes to a start No one is there
Some are calling, some are sad Some are calling him mad No one is there
Across from behind your window screen Demon is dancing down the scene In a crucial parody Demon is dancing down the scene He is calling and throwing His arms up in the air No one is there
All of them are missing As the game comes to a start No one is there
And no sound has them Declared To be missing To be missing To be missing
No One In The World Composer(s): Ken Hirsch; Martha Vanessa Sharron Performer(s): Anita Baker; and various other artists
I look back on all those good times We once shared and I must have been blind Just to think Id find someone new One whod love me better than you
Well, it may come as a surprise Loneliness has opened my eyes I tried every love I could find Still I cant get you out of my mind

Every time Im with someone Im loving you, yes, I want to run I wanna run back to your arms again Aint no one in the world (No one in the world) Loves me like you do
Are you happy now with your life Well, for me, Im breaking inside So self-assured that I could not see I had it all when you were with me, baby
No one in the worlds gonna hold me No one in the worlds gonna move me No one in the world can love me Like you do, baby
Every time Im with someone Im loving you and I want to run I wanna run back to your arms again Aint no one in the world (No one in the world) Loves me like you do
Please take me back (Please take me back) Oh babe, I cant go on (I cant go on) Im not happy in my life without you Ill do whatever it takes Ive got to get you back with me again (Got to get you back with me) I realize I need you here in my life

No One But You Composer(s): Nicholas Brodszky; Jack Lawrence Performer(s): Billy Eckstine
No one but you could take my heart before you came No one but you could make my heart burst into flame Now I hear myself confessing All the dreams Ive been suppressing All at once my lips are blessing your name
Your hands are cool, your eyes are warm Your smile is bliss Id be a fool to fear the storm thats in your kiss Let your kiss destroy or save me, so shall it be Till life is through, no one but you for me
No Olvides Que Une Vez Tu Fuiste Sol Composer(s): Augusto Blanca Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
No olvides que una vez tu fuiste sol no olvides ni la tapia ni el laurel no dejes de asombrarte al asistir a un nuevo nacimiento en tu jardín No pierdas una ventana no entregues tus mañanas de aguaceros y juegos ni desentierres tesoros, viejos No ocultes lo que ayer se te ofreció no escondas ni la pena ni el dolór no dejes que una nube diga adios no saltes en pedazos no ocultes tu diamante no entregues tu perfecto amanecer ni tus estrellas, ni tu arena, ni tu mar ni tu incansable caminar vete de nuevo hasta el arroyo donde esta tu mejor canto
Y ve, calmale la sed a tus enormes prados no permitas que se pierda tu cosecha hoy que hasta la lluvia fiel no te ha escuchado y busca tu raiz Y dale la caricia a la que siempre espera la única manera de hacerla que vuelva a ofrecerte frutos hasta en el invierno y no olvides que una vez,tu fuiste sol Y ve, desata esos diques de corrientes presas dejate llevar y vuelve a ser jinete vaja hasta tus valles de palomas sueltas que este es tu pais Donde estan tus riendas donde esta tu espuma donde abandonaste tu camino entonces donde naufragaste haz crecer mil rosas y no olvides que una vez tu fuiste sol
No Nos Dejan Ser Niños Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro Performer(s): Raphael
No nos dejan ser niños, no nos dejan No nos dejan ser niños ni en la cuna Que corriendo la madre nos abruma Con el rigido horario de la dieta Si reimos felices nos achuchan Si lloramos rabiosos nos golpean Con azotes de azucar y de espuma Pero azotes al fin que nos molestan
No nos dejan ser niños ni un momento Pues apenas nacemos nos recuerdan Con el agua y la sal y el padre nuestro Que infierno fatal ya nos espera Cuando apenas cumplimos los tres años Nos retiran del juego y la quimera Ya nos hacen esclavos del trabajo Al dejarnos atados a una escuela
No nos dejan ser niños, no nos dejan
La inocencia es un lujo necio y caro Que nos hacen perder antes que nada Pues horrible es creer que existen hadas Y hace daño esperar al buen rey mago Que los niños no nacen por un beso Nos descubre el amigo despiadado Y asi vamos a golpes despertando Hasta ver que la vida no es un sueño
Cuando ya somos hombres y queremos Al amor y al trabajo idealizarlos Al amor lo hacen polvo en un contrato Y al trabajo lo ensucian con un precio No nos dejan ser niños, no nos dejan Todo tiene que ser preciso y serio Y nos miden amor, deseos y sueños Porque todo es absurdo en esta tierra
No No Thanks No Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg Performer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
No no thanks no Je n'fume qu'la marijuana No no thanks no À quoi bon insister No no thanks no Ma dernière cigarette No no thanks no Est déjà refroidie
No no thanks no Je n'aime que le bourbon No no thanks no C'est une affaire de goût No no thanks no Mon dernier verre je l'ai vidé No no thanks no Avec Rosemary
No no thanks no Pour moi pas de prières No no thanks no Dieu m'a abandonné No no thanks no Je serai pleuré demain No no thanks no Par mes frères de Harlem

A man I know just came from Nashville Tennessee oh He smiled because I did not understand Then he held out some moonshine whiskey oh-ho He said it was the best in all the land And I said
No no no no, I don't drink it no more I'm tired of wakin' up on the floor No, thank you, please It only makes me sneeze And then it makes it hard to find the door
