Call It Stormy Monday But Tuesday Is Just As Bad Composer(s): T-Bone Walker First release by: T-Bone Walker - 1948 Covered by multiple other artists
They call it stormy Moday, but Tuesday's just as bad They call it stormy Moday, but Tuesday's just as bad Wednesday's worse, and Thursday's also sad
Yes the eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play Eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play Sunday I go to church, then I kneel down and pray
Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me Lord have mercy, my heart's in misery Crazy about my baby, yes, send her back to me
Falsa Composer(s): Juan B. Leonardo Performer(s): Javier Solis; and various other artists
Quise hallar en otros besos el alivio al cruel daño que tu engaño me causara Y al buscar en el aliento de otras bocas el perfume que embriagaba mi tristeza
Encontré que también ellas mentían y fingían como tú lo hacías conmigo finalmente comprendo que en la vida todo es falso pero tú eres mucho más
Encontré que también ellas mentían y fingían como tú lo hacías conmigo finalmente comprendo que en la vida todo es falso pero tú eres mucho más
A flight of steel eagles tearing by The ripped silk screaming of the rended sky Flame on through sound and make time fly What a good way to go... What a good way to go
In the aero space age... inferno
Fly through the ground like a circus hound Through the burning hoop in just one bound So not even your ashes will be found What a good way to go... What a good way to go
In the aero space age... inferno
Set the controls for the heart of the Earth The silver machine's worth more than you're worth But the phoenix soul is bound for rebirth What a good way to go... What a good way to go
Call Any Vegetable
Composer(s): Frank Zappa
Performer(s): The Mothers of Invention
(Cheesey, Cheesey)
(This is a song about vegetables, they keep ya regular
They're real good for yo)
Call any vegetable
Call it by name
Call one today When you get off the train
Call any vegetable And the chances are good
Aw, The vegetable will respond to you
(Some people don't go for prunes ...
I don't know, I've always found that if they ...)
Call any vegetable
Pick up your phone
Think of a vegetable
Lonely at home
Call any vegetable
And the chances are good
That a vegetable will *respond* to you
Rutabaga, Rutabaga
Rutabaga, Rutabaga
Rutabay-y-y-y ...
(A prune isn't really a vegetable ...
Cabbage is a vegetable ...)
No one will know
If you don't want to let them know
No one will know
'Less it's you that might tell them so
Call and they'll come to you
Covered with dew
Vegetables dream
Of responding to you
Standing there shiny and proud by your side
Holding your hand while the neighbors decide
Why is a vegetable something to hide?
Falling Out Of Love Can Be Fun Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Mary McCarty; and various other artists
Crocodile tears will not be shed They're not for a lady like I'm I can recall what my aunt said When she married for the twentieth time
Falling out of love can be fun After love is over and done It's an awful blow and although it's upsetting So much you can do while you're forgetting Falling out of love can be fun
When you've find your lover has gone Get your second wind and go on There's an old affair that is there for renewing In your grief, do you know what you're doing? Falling out of love can be fun
Soon, you'll be swinging in a hammock on a porch One arm wrapped around someone else The other arm carrying a torch
Love can give a lady a clout And she may be down but not out Get yourself a date, don't you wait for the count of ten, then Falling out of love can be falling in love again
Falling out of love can be fun Someone else can soon be the one By another name, he's the same as his brother Close your eyes and one is like the other Falling out of love can be fun
When he goes before you have wed And the stork is over your head Soon you're gonna be with a she or a laddie Smile as you go shopping for a daddy Falling out of love can be fun
Soon, you'll be losing all your troubles and your fears One eye winking at someone else The other eye filling up with tears
When you find your lovin' romance Gets a sudden kick in the pants Get yourself surrounded and bounded with lots of men, then Falling out of love can be falling in love again
The Adventures Of Robin Hood Composer(s): Carl Sigman
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men Feared by the bad, loved by the good Robin Hood! Robin Hood! Robin Hood!
He called the greatest archers to a tavern on the green They vowed to help the people of the King They handled all the trouble on the English country scene And still found plenty of time to sing
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men Feared by the bad, loved by the good Robin Hood! Robin Hood! Robin Hood!
Falling Leaves Composer(s): Grandpa Jones; Louis Jones Performer(s): Grandpa Jones; Pam Linton; Cliff Waldron; Billy Walker
By the grave site of this near forgotten man On this cold November morning here I stand Thinking of the friends he lost for the love of gold This story through the years has often been told
Falling leaves that lie scattered on the ground The birds and flowers that were here cannot be found All the friends that he once knew are not around They're all scattered like the leaves upon the ground
Some folks drift along through life and never thrill To the feeling that a good deed brings until It's too late and they are ready to lie down There beneath the leaves that's scattered on the ground
Lord, let my eyes see every need of every man Make me stop and always lend a helping hand Then when I'm laid beneath that little grassy mound There'll be more friends around than leaves upon the ground
To your grave there's no use taking any gold You cannot use it when it's time for hands to fold When you leave this earth for a better home someday The only thing you'll take is what you gave away
The Adventures Of Jim Bowie Composer(s): Ken Darby Performer(s): The King's Men
Jim Bowie! Jim Bowie! He was a fighter, a fearless and mighty adventurin' man! He roamed the wilderness unafraid From Natchez to Rio Grande With all the might of his gleaming blade Flashing from either hand Jim Bowie! Jim Bowie! He was a fighter, a fearless and mighty adventurin' man!

Falling In Love With Love Composer(s): Lorenz Hart; Richard Rodgers Performer(s): Frances Langford; and various other artists
Falling in love with love is falling for make-believe Falling in love with love is playing the fool Caring too much is such a juvenile fancy Learning to trust is just for children in school
I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full I was unwise with eyes unable to see I fell in love with love, with love everlasting But love fell out with me
Oh, I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full I was unwise with eyes unable to see I fell in love with love, with love everlasting But love fell out with me
Do I Love You Because You're Beautiful Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Oscar Hammerstein II Performer(s): Julie Andrews & Jon Cypher and multiple other artists
Prince: Do I love you because you're beautiful, or are you beautiful because I love you? Am I making believe I see in you a girl too lovely to be really true? Do I want you because you're wonderful, or are you wonderful because I want you? Are you the sweet invention of a lover's dream or are you really as beautiful as you seem?
Cinderella: Am I making believe I see in you a man too perfect to be really true? Do I want you because you're wonderful, or are you wonderful because I want you?
Both: Are you the sweet invention of a lover's dream or are you really as wonderful as you seem?

Performer(s): Marlene Dietrich - 1930

Falling in love again Never wanted to What am I to do? Can't help it
Love's always been my game Play it as I may I was born that way Can't help it
Men flock around me Like moths around a flame And if their wings burn I know I'm not to blame
Falling in love again Never wanted to What am I to do? Can't help it

Covered by multiple other artists
When the wintry winds are blowing and the snow is starting in to fall then my eyes turn west-ward knowing that's the place I love the best of all California , I've been blue, since I've been away from you I can't wait 'til I get going Even now I'm starting in to call Oh...
California, here I come right back where I started from Where Bowers of flowers bloom in the spring Each morning at dawning, birdies sing an' everything A sunkist miss said, "Don't be late" that's why I can hardly wait Open up that Golden Gate California here I come
Any one who likes to wander ought to keep this saying in his mind "Absence makes the heart grow fonder" of the good old place you leave behind When you've hit the train awhile, seems you rarely see a smile that's why I must fly out yonder, where a frown is mighty hard to find! Oh....
California, here I come right back where I started from Where Bowers of flowers bloom in the spring Each morning at dawning, birdies sing an' everything A sunkist miss said, "Don't be late" that's why I can hardly wait Open up that Golden Gate California here I come

The Actor Composer(s): Justin Hayward Performer(s): The Moody Blues
The curtain rises on the scene With someone shouting to be free The play unfolds before my eyes There stands the actor who is me
The sleeping hours takes us far From traffic, telephones and fear Put out your problems with the cat Escape until a bell you hear
Our reasons are the same But there's no-one we can blame For there's nowhere we need go And the only truth we know comes so easily
The sound I have heard in your hello Oh, oh, darling, you're almost part of me Oh, oh, darling, you're all I'll ever see Ah, ah, ah
It's such a rainy afternoon No point in going anywhere The sounds just drift across my room I wish this feeling I could share
It's such a rainy afternoon She sits and gazes from her window Her mind tries to recall his face The feeling deep inside her grows
Our reasons are the same But there's no-one we can blame For there's nowhere we need go And the only truth we know comes so easily
The sound I have heard in your hello Oh, oh, darling, you're almost part of me Oh, oh, darling, you're all I'll ever see The sound I have heard in your hello Oh, oh, darling, you're all I'll ever see Oh, oh, darling, you're almost part of me Ah, ah, ah
