Take Me Home Tonight
Composer(s): Michael Leeson - Peter Vale
Performer(s): Eddie Money; Every Avenue



I feel a hunger

It's a hunger that tries to keep a man awake at night
Are you the answer?
I shouldn't wonder when I feel you whet my appetite

With all the power you're releasing

It isn't safe to walk the city streets a
Anticipation is running through me

Let's find the key and turn this engine on

I can feel you breathe
I can feel your heartbeat faster
Take me home tonight!
I don't want to let you go till you see the light!
Take me home tonight!
Listen honey
Just like Ronnie sang: Be my little baby!

I get frightened in all this darkness

I get nightmares
I hate to sleep alone
I need some company

A guardian angel to keep me warm when the cold winds blow!

I can feel you breathe
I can feel your heartbeat faster ...
Be my little baby!

Just like Ronnie sang
I say
just like Ronnie sang:
Be my little baby
baby
my darling!
I feel a hunger
it's a hunger!

Take me home tonight! ...
Take me home tonight! ...
Take me home tonight! ...

Eu canto
Porque o instante existe
E a minha vida está completa
Não sou alegre nem sou triste
Sou poeta

Irmão das coisas fugidias
Não sinto gozo nem tormento
Atravesso noites e dias
No vento

Se desmorono ou se edifico
Se permaneço ou me desfaço
Não sei se fico
Ou passo

Eu sei que canto e a canção é tudo
Tem sangue eterno a asa ritimada
E um dia eu sei que estarei mudo
Mais nada

Give A Little Love
Composer(s): John Goodison; Phil Wainman
Performer(s): Bay City Rollers



It's a teenage dream, to be seventeen 
And to find you're all wrapped up in love 
And I've found that you, made a dream come true 
Now I do believe in what they say 

You've got to give a little love 
Take a little love 
Be prepared to forsake a little love 
And when the sun comes shining through 
We'll know what to do 

Give a little love, take a little love 
Be prepared to forsake a little love 
And when the sun comes shining through 
We'll know what to do 

When I walk with you, there is just we two 
And the world goes by but I just don't care 
And I know that one day, I'll find a way 
To be safe and sound within your heart 
So until I do 

I'm gonna give a little love 
Take a little love 
Be prepared to forsake a little love 
And when the sun comes shining through 
We'll know what to do 

Give a little love, take a little love 
Be prepared to forsake a little love 
And when the sun comes shining through 
We'll know what to do

Take Me Home
Composer(s): Steve Kipner - John Capek - Mark Jordan
Performer(s): Joe Cocker & Bekka Bramlett



Maybe we're standing on the threshold
With our eyes open wide
Let the river keep on flowing
We can reach the other side
Caught in this endless revolution
Under helicopter skies
To lose becomes unthinkable
And to win is the only road now

There's a bridge over the water
I can see it like a rainbow
If you love me I'll be waiting
Take me home to the other side

All the men and all the women
Who sacrifice their love
Never taste what we took for granted
No they don't know love at all
Some of them broken some of them wounded
And so cynical from the pain
I was quiet as a grave yard
Till you heard me caling out your name

There's a bridge over the water
I can see it like a rainbow
If you love me I'll be waiting
Take me home to the other side

Life was victorious
Now it can't be denied
We'll stand together
Cause love is on our side

There's a bridge over the water
I can see it like a rainbow
If you love me I'll be waiting
Take me home to the other side

Well, all right!
Starchild, Citizens of the Universe, Recording Angels
We have returned to claim the Pyramids
Partying on the Mothership

And come on up to the Mothership
Loose Booty, doin' the bump 
Hustle on over here

It's just me and the boys hittin' it
You gotta hit the band
Ain't nothing but a party, y'all
Face it, even your memory banks have forgotten this funk
Mothership Connection, home of the P.Funk, the Bomb
If you hear any noise
It's just me and the boys, hit me
You gotta hit the band
Doin' it in 3-D
Let me put on my sunglasses here so I can see what I'm doing
When you hear seats rumble you will hear your conscience grumble
Hit me

You have overcome, for I am here

Swing down, sweet chariot
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride

Well, all right 
Ain't nothing but a party!

You gotta hit the band

I don't think they hear you!
If you hear any noise
It's just me and the boys
Hit me
You gotta hit the band

Starchild here, citizens of the universe
Gettin' it on, partying on the Mothership
When Gabriel's horn blows, you'd better be ready to go

Swing low
Time to move on
Light years in time
Ahead of our time
Free your mind, and come fly
With me
It's hip
On the Mothership
Groovin'

Swing down, sweet chariot
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride

Give A Little
Composer(s): Bill Payne; Fran Payne
Performer(s): Nicolette Larson



Take a chance
What have you got to lose?
It's better than singing the blues
It's your share, waiting everywhere
I'm really trying to tell you the news

Give a little, care a lot
Try to use the love you've got
Someone's waiting over there
Waiting for someone to care

Won't you try
See what you can do
You see I'm talking to you
There's so much more
Why are you waiting?
It's about time
That you started to give

Give a little, care a lot
Try to use the love you've got
Someone's waiting over there
Waiting for someone to share their love

See what you're given
For once in a life don't be driven
To hide it away

Give a little, care a lot
Try to use the love you've got
Someone's waiting over there
Waiting for someone to care

Give a little, care a lot
Try to use the love you've got
Someone's waiting over there
Waiting for someone to care

Take Me Home
Composer(s): Jim Capaldi - C. Thompson - A. Quinta
Performer(s): Jim Capaldi



In an empty bed staring at the ceiling
You need someone to love, show you understanding
When you feel brokenhearted, looking for a way around it
In the middle of a broken dream, open your eyes, never look back
Happiness is something to be aiming at
When you feel brokenhearted, looking for a way around it
in the middle of a broken dream

Take me home, home to your heart
Home to your body babe
Take me in your arms, cover me up
Take me home we're never meant to be alone
How can I make you see, take a chance on me

There's no way out, nobody to turn to
All you need is someone to the rescue
When you feel brokenhearted
looking for a way around it
in the middle of a broken dream

Take me home, home to your heart
Home to your body babe
Take me in your arms, cover me up
Take me home we're never meant to be alone
How can I make you see, take a chance on me

Girl in this life we live
There's so much we can share
So much we can give

Take me home, home to your heart
Home to your body babe
Take me in your arms, cover me up
Take me home we're never meant to be alone
How can I make you see, take a chance on me

Take me home, home to your heart
Home to your body babe
Take me in your arms, cover me up
Take me home we're never meant to be alone
How can I make you see, take a chance on me

Mother's Not Dead, She's Only Sleeping
Composer(s): Charlie Monroe
Performer(s): Charlie Monroe;
Roy Acuff; Vernon Oxford



I Left my old home way back in the mountains
Mother was called to heaven that day
They carried my mother up to the graveyard
Ev'rything's lonesome since she went a-way

Chorus
Mother's Not Dead, she's only a-sleeping
Just patiently waiting for Jesus to come
The birds will be singing while mother lies sleeping
They will sing o'er her as the grave fades a-way

Nothing seems right around the old home place
Even the place where we used to play
I love my old home way back in the mountains
But ev'rything's changed since she went away

Chorus

Mother was good and now she's in heaven
She was the best pal a boy ever had
I still love my home way back in the mountains
But without you mother, a heart aches so sad

Chorus

Give A Fool A Chance
Composer(s): Jerry Stevens
Performer(s): Alma Cogan



If I make you cry at times
If I tell a lie at times
It’s my first romance
Give a fool a chance
If your poor heart aches, my love
When I make mistakes, my love
Try to understand
Give a fool a hand

Now I don’t need to hurt you or break the heart that you gave
It’s just that love is new to me and I don’t know how to behave
But you can right what’s wrong with me
If you’ll string along with me.
Don’t end our romance
Give a fool a chance

It’s just that love is new to me and I don’t know how to behave
But you can right what’s wrong with me
If you’ll string along with me
Oh, don’t end our romance
Please give a fool a chance

Take Me For What I'm Worth
Composer(s): P.F. Sloan
Performer(s): The Searchers; Mike Pender; P.F. Sloan



Don't try and understand me, you never could do that
Ah, and in the end you'd wind up being hurt
I'm a man with too many problems that keep pounding on my brain

So if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)

I don't pretend to be a saint, my sins they are many
But there's no-one perfect in this universe
And though you think I'm weird, don't try and change me dear

'cause if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)

Hear a howling wind outside my door, there's restlessness within
Oh, I'm like a raincloud that one day may burst
We both know I'll be leavin' and if one little tear you grieve

Ah, it's all right 'cause that's all I'm really worth
(it's all right 'cause that's all I'm really worth)

And if you think about me in your lonesome hours
Ah, and on your lips there's a sweet word and not a curse
Ah, then I'll be comin' back one day when my wandering is over

Ah, if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)
Ah, if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth
(if you want me you'll take me for what I'm worth)

Ach, die Kinder san heut bös
sagt die Muter ganz nervös
Ich brauch dringend meine Ruah, i bin am End
Und sie bild' si des nur ein
doch sie find gar nix dabei
Nimmt a Pulver oder zwa
Die Befreiung, sie ist da
S'Leben ist schön seufzt sie entzückt
wie mir die Erzieuhng glückt

Ach, die Zeiten san heut bös
sagt die Mutter ganz nervös
Dieses Kochen bringt mi um und macht mi krank
Ich koch nur mehr Tiefkühlkost
damit die Kraft mich nicht verlasst
Nimmt a Pulver oder zwa
die Befreiung, sie ist da
S'Leben is schön seufzt sie entzückt
Das Menü ist mir geglückt

Ach, bitte sehr, i brauch noch mehr
und vor der Tür, da nimmt's gleich vier
S'Leben is schwer, sie kann nimmermehr

Ach, die Männer san so bös
sagt die Mutter ganz nervös
Und es stört sie, wenn ma müd is und k.o.
Niemals kriegn die Männer gnua
Doch sie holt sich ihre Ruah
nimmt a Pulver oder zwa
die Befreiung, sie ist da
S'Leben is schön seufzt sie entzückt
wenn ihr Mann sie nachts beglückt

Ach bitte sehr, ....

Ach das Leben is so bös
sagt die Mutter ganz nervös
Ich will glücklich sein, doch keiner sagt ma wie
Sie schluckt alles was sie hat
doch dann wird ihr sterbensmatt
und ka Pulverl is mehr da
und sie fühlt sich gar nicht froh
Jetzt is aus denkt sie 
Oh Gott!
Und dann is die Mutter tot

Giustina
French Title: Justine
Composer(s): Senlis; Auriat; Arnaldi
Performer(s): Dalida



Coi cesti sulle spalle 
Passava ogni mattina
Piegata dalla vita 
La povera Giustina 

Coi cesti sulle spalle 
Tornava a tarda sera
Silente e solitaria 
Nella sua veste nera 

Avevo sette anni 
E mi sembrava anziana
Più vecchia dell'ulivo 
Vicino alla fontana
Pero mia madre sempre 
In fondo alla cucina

Gridava al suo passaggio
Saluti a voi Giustina 

Sedeva li da sola 
Davanti alla sua casa
E fino a tarda notte 
La luce stava accesa

Nè figli nè nipoti 
Soltanto un vecchio cane
Col quale divideva 
I ceci oppure il pane

Avevo sedicianni 
E la trovavo brutta
Come quei rami secchi 
Che plù non dannofrutta
Pero mia madre sempre 
In fondo alla cucina

Gridava al suo passaggio
Saluti a voi Ginstina

Un giorno per la via 
Lei smise di passare
La sera le campane 
Si misero a suonare

Lei era morta sola 
A novantinni e un giorno
A quell'età si è soli 
Anche coi figli intorno 

Ed io che avrei compiuto 
Trentanni a primavera
Senti la giovinezza 
Partire quella sera
Non c'era più mia madre 
In fondo alla cucina

E allora le gridai
Addio 
Addio Giustina

Take Me For A Little While

First recording/First release by: Evie Sands - 1965/Jackie Ross - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists



I've been trying to make you love me
But everything I try just takes you further from me
You don't love me no no
So you treat me cruel
But no matter how you hurt me
I'll always be a fool
If you don't want me forever
If you don't need me forever
And if you don't love me forever
Take me for a little while
I've got to make you love me
For a little while
I've just got to make you want me
I've got to stop it

There should be a law
And no maatter how you put me down
I love you more
I feel so helpless
And it ain't funny
Cause deep down inside I know
You're never gonna love me
If you don't want me forever
If you don't need me forever
If you can't love me forever
Take me for a little while
I'm gonna make you love me
For a llittle while
I've got to make you want me
Take me for a little while, baby
Can't you see it's gonna be me
Take me for a little while
Take me for a little while
I'm gonna tell you how I need you
Tell me how I want you
Take me for a little while

What a drag it is getting old 
"Kids are different today" 
I hear ev'ry mother say 
Mother needs something today to calm her down 
And though she's not really ill 
There's a little yellow pill 
She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper 
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day 

"Things are different today" 
I hear ev'ry mother say 
Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag 
So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak 
And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper 
And two help her on her way, get her through her busy day 

Doctor please, some more of these 
Outside the door, she took four more 
What a drag it is getting old 

"Men just aren't the same today" 
I hear ev'ry mother say 
They just don't appreciate that you get tired 
They're so hard to satisfy, You can tranquilize your mind 
So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper 
And four help you through the night, help to minimize your plight 

Doctor please, some more of these 
Outside the door, she took four more 
What a drag it is getting old 

"Life's just much too hard today" 
I hear ev'ry mother say 
The pusuit of happiness just seems a bore 
And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose 
No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper 
They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day

Take Me For A Buggy Ride
Performer(s): Bessie Smith



You're my man, you're so nice and brown, sweetest man in this town
I heard you say you was goin' away, and leave me here to stay
I feel like I could cry, and here's the reason why
Daddy, you really knows your stuff when you take me for a buggy ride
I like you when you got your habits on, you can shift your gear with so much pride
I gets a funny feelin' when you gaze into my eyes
You give me so much thrill, you make my thermometer rise
I'm happy when you're by my side when you take me for a buggy ride
Daddy, you're as sweet as you can be when you take me for a buggy ride
When you set me down up on your knee, and ask me to be your bride
When you hug and kiss me it makes me feel fine
I gets this funny feelin' up and down my spine
You don't need no teachin', you don't need no guide when you take me for a buggy ride
Your lovin' ain't so forte in the park but you a lovin', poor creature in the dark
You ain't so hot!
What can it be that makes me say? "daddy, take all of me"
You always ready ev'ry time that I call
What I like about you, you never stall
You ain't no preacher, you a good old soul
You done sent salvation to my very soul
I can't kick but I'm satisfied when you take me for a buggy ride

Got no time for foolin' with you baby
Your stupid game is about to end
You played it out
Thought you had it made
And it looks like someone passed you by again

I left her standin' in her corner
She told me she was tryin' to find her way
I've got to leave before I get much older
'Cause she ain't moved in nearly forty days

I've got a woman that's treatin' me better
She takes her time and she ain't so cruel
I've got someone to take you over
Your mother ain't so bad
What happened to you?

Cledus T. Judd; Ralph's World



He's free as the breeze, he's always at ease
He lives in the jungle and hangs by his knees
As he swings through the trees without a trapeze
In his B.V.D.'s 

He's got a union card and he's practicing hard
To play the guitar
Gonna be a big star, yeah, he's gonna go far
And carry moon beams home in a jar 

He ordered Chet's Guitar course C.O.D.
Makes "A" and "E" and he's working on "B"
Digs "C" and "W" and "R" and "B"
And me and the chimpanzee agree that one day soon he will be a celebrity 

Chorus:
Git it, git it, git it, git it...Ow!

He's all you can stand
Give him a hand, Gitarzan 
Ahhh (Jungle Yell), Ahhh, Ahhh 

He's got a girl named Jane with no last name
Kinda homely and plain but he loves her just the same
Cuz she kindles a flame and it drives him insane
When he hears her sing, she really does her thing
It's her claim to fame, come on, sing one Jane 

Baby, baby
Ow, baby, baby (scat)
Baby, baby

Well, they got a pet monkey
He likes to get drunky
And sing boogie woogie and it sounds real funky
Come on, your time boy, sing one monkey

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Let's hear it for the monkey

On saturday night they need some excitement
Jane gets right and the monkey gets tight
And their voices unite in the pale moonlight
And it sounds all right, yeah, it's dynamite, it's out of sight
Let's hear it right.....now 

Baby, ahhh, baby, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Baby, ahhh, baby, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Mother's Bible
Composer(s): Don Reno
Performer(s): Crowe Brothers
and various other artists



There's a book that Mother left me 
That grows sweeter every day
I have often read the pages 
Since my Mother passed away 
When but just a baby boy
I would sit upon her knee
Mother looked just like an angel
When she read this book to me  
 
Mother's bible, oh, how dear 
With the covers worn and old
Mother's bible, much more sweeter
Worth much more to me than gold
And she told me, yes she told me 
Just before she went to sleep
If I read it and believed it 
Jesus then my soul would keep 
 
Now my Mother's gone to heaven
And sometimes I feel so sad
Then I go get Mother's bible 
That she left for me and Dad
Through the years there may be changes
But one change there'll never be
It's that old and faded bible 
That my Mother left for me
 
Mother's bible, oh, how dear
With the covers worn and old 
Mother's bible, much more sweeter 
Worth much more to me than gold 
And she told me, yes she told me
Just before she went to sleep 
If I read it and believed it
Jesus then my soul would keep
