The Ballerina
Composer(s): David Spinozza
Performer(s): David Spinozza



She's an angel on her toes
She thinks nobody knows what
She's feeling

She's always on the run
She's got no time for no one

Her laughs turns into cries
For loves that passed her by
What is this strong desire
That keeps her reaching higher?

Like a symphony in grace
She will tune the empty space
Like a lover, like a child
She'll drive you wild

She will dance - dance - dance
Till her life is through
She will dance - dance - dance
Till there is no more
And wht's it for?

She's waltzing through the air
She hasn't got a care or a worry

Planted feet upon the ground
She's neither lost or found

Like a symphony in grace
She will tune the empty space
Like a lover, like a child
She'll drive you wild

She will dance - dance - dance
Till her life is through
She will dance - dance - dance
Till there is no more
And what's it for?

Can I Canoe You Up The River?
Composer(s): Marjorie Goetschius - Edna Osser
Performer(s): Billy Cotton & His Band



Can I canoe you up the river
Can I canoe you up the stream
Can I canoe you up the river
Like I did in last night's dream
We'll drift a moment in the moonlight
I'll fish for little things to say
And with the help of Mr. Moonlight
Maybe you'll see things my way
I tried to tell you how I care
But never made the grade
Now things might change if I could have
A setting for my serenade
So, can I canoe you up the river
I'll be as nice as I can be
And hope that while we're up the river
You'll go overboard for me
Can he canoe you up the river
Can he canoe you up the stream
Can he canoe you up the river
Like I did in last night? dream
You'll drift a moment in the moonlight
You'll fish for little things to say
And with the help of Mr. Moonlight
Maybe you'll see things my way
I tried to tell you how I care
But never made the grade
Now things might change if I could have
A setting for my serenade
So, can I canoe you up the river
I'll be as nice as I can be
And hope that while we're up the river
You'll go overboard for me

Fascination
Composer(s): Dick Manning; Fidenco Dante Marchetti
Performer(s): Jane Morgan;
and various other artists



(Fascination turned to love)

It was fascination, I know
And it might have ended right there at the start
Just a passing glance, just a brief romance
And I might have gone on my way empty-hearted

It was fascination, I know
Seeing you alone with the moonlight above
Then I touched your hand and next moment I kissed you
Fascination turned to love

It was fascination, I know
Seeing you alone with the moonlight above
Then I touched your hand and next moment I kissed you
Fascination turned to love

(It was fascination)

Ballad Of You And Me And Pooneil 
Composer(s): Paul Kantner
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane



If you were a bird and you lived very high
knew even the wind as the breeze came by
say to the wind as it took you away
That's where I wanted to go today"
And I do know that I need to have you around
Love like a mountain springtime
flashing through the rivers of my mind
it's what I feel for you
You and me go walking south
And we see all the world around us
The colors blind my eyes and my mind to all but you
And I do know that I need to have you around
And I do, I do know that I need to have you around
I have a house where I can go
When there's too many people around me
I can sit and watch all the people
Down below goin' by me
Halfway down the stair is a stair
Where I sit and think about you and me
But I wonder will the sun still see all the people goin'
Will the moon still hang in the sky when I die
When I die, when I'm high, when I die?
If you were a cloud and you sailed up there
You sail on water as blue as air
You'd see me here in the fields and say
"Doesn't the sky look green today?"

Can Anyone Explain? (No, No, No!)
Composer(s): Bennie Benjamin - George David Weiss
Performer(s): The Ames Brothers
and multiple other artists



Can anyone explain the thrill of a kiss
No! No! No!
But when two eager lips are pressed against yours
You'll know, yes, you'll know

Can anyone explain the glow of romance
No! No! No!
But when you hear the phrase "It's you I adore"
You'll know, yes, you'll know

And you will find, to give love a start
Don't think with your mind, just feel with your heart

Can anyone explain the wonder of love 
No! No! No!
But now that you and I are sharing a sigh
We know, yes, we know

And you will find, to give love a start
Don't think with your mind, just feel with your heart

Can anyone explain the wonder of love 
No! No! No!
But now that you and I are sharing a sigh
We know, yes, we know

Fascinating Rhythm
Composer(s): George Gershwin; Ira Gershwin
Performer(s): Susannah McCorkle;
and various other artists



Got a little rhythm, a rhythm, a rhythm 
That pit-a-pats through my brain
So darn persistent
The day isn't distant 
When it'll drive me insane
Comes in the morning 
Without any warning
And hangs around me all day
I'll have to sneak up to it 
Someday, and speak up to it 
I hope it listens when I say

Refrain: 
Fascinating Rhythm
You've got me on the go! 
Fascinating Rhythm 
I'm all a-quiver
When a mess you're making! 
The neighbours want to know 
Why I'm always shaking 
Just like a flivver
Each morning I get up with the sun
Start a-hopping
Never stopping  
To find at night no work has been done
I know that 
Once it didn't matter
But now you're doing wrong
When you start to patter 
I'm so unhappy
Won't you take a day off? 
Decide to run along 
Somewhere far away off
And make it snappy! 
Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be! 
Fascinating rhythm
Oh won't you stop picking on me?

Ballad Of Wes Tancred
Composer(s): Josef Myrow - Robert Wells
Performer(s): Eddy Arnold



Come all you good people and lend me your ear
I got a sad story that you oughta hear
The wind it was howlin' 'round Sam Older's shack
The night that his killer stepped out of the black
And shot Sam down from the rear

Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
A pal right down to the end
Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
The black-hearted, white-livered, backbitin' sidewinder
Murdered his own best friend

It happened on Friday the thirteenth of May
The coroner carried Sam Older away
If I don't know nothin'
There's one thing's a fact
The hole was much bigger in front than in back
Now you don't kill a brave man that way

Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
A pal right down to the end
Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
The black-hearted, white-livered, backbitin' sidewinder
Murdered is own best friend

Now folks when you sleep
Put a bolt on your door
Wes Tancred is loose with his Colt 44
Don't lie on your stomach when you go to bed
'Cause he'll take a shot at the back of your head
The way he done it before

Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
A pal right down to the end
Wes Tancred, Wes Tancred
The black-hearted, white-livered, backbitin' sidewinder
Murdered is own best friend

Campanas De Plata
Performer(s): Raphael



En un borriquillo van para belen
La virgen maria junto a san jose
Y siendo santos señores
Pasan frio y calores
En un borriquillo camino tambien
Pobre pelegrino con hambre y con sed
Pero tu me alumbras coclilla encendida
Estrella bonita que luce en belen

Son con este son, son los campanilleros
Son con este son, una ronda de amor
Son con este son de campanas de plata
Luminosa serenata, son con este son

Farther Down The Line
Composer(s): Lyle Lovett
Performer(s): Lyle Lovett; Willie Nelson



Let's have a hand for that young cowboy
And wish him better luck next time
And hope we see him up in Fargo
Or somewhere farther down the line

This time he sure drew a bad one
One that nobody could ride
But by the way he pulled his hat on
You knew he'd be there for the fight

Chorus:
And it's the classic contradiction
The unavoidable affliction
Well it don't take much to predict son
The way it always goes
One day she says she loves you
And the next she'll be tired of you
And push will always come to shove you
On that midnight rodeo

He almost made it to the buzzer
Somehow he gave up in the end
They put one hand around the other
And let that pickup man on in

And it was his last chance to ride
And now he'll have to move along
But he knows back in his mind
He won't be away for long

Chorus:
And it's the classic contradiction
The unavoidable affliction
Well it don't take much to predict son
The way it always goes
Because one day she says she loves you
And the next she'll be tired of you
And push will always come to shove you
On that midnight rodeo

So let's have a hand for that young cowboy
And wish him better luck next time
And hope we see him up in Fargo
Or somewhere farther down the line

The Ballad Of The Shape Of Things
Composer(s): Sheldon Harnick
Performer(s): The Kingston Trio



Completely round is the perfect pearl
The oyster manufactures
Completely round is the steering wheel
That leads to compound fractures
Completely round is the golden fruit
That hangs from the orange tree
Yes, the circle shape is quite renowned
And sad to say, it can be found
In the low down, dirty runaround
My true love gave to me, yes
My true love gave to me

Completely square is the velvet box
He said my ring would be in
Completely square is the envelope
He said farewell to me in
Completely square is the handkerchief
I flourish constantly
As I dry my eyes of the tears I shed
And blow my nose that turned bright red
Completely square is my true love's head
He will not marry me, no, he will not marry me

Rectangular is the hotel door
My true love tried to sneak through
Rectangular is the transom
Over which I had to peek through
Rectangular is the hotel room I entered angrily
And rectangular is the wooden box
Where lies my love neath the golden phlox
They say he died from the chicken pox
In part I must agree: one chick too many had he! 

Triangular is the piece of pie
I eat to ease my sorrow
Triangular is the hatchet blade
I plan to hide tomorrow
Triangular the relationship
That now has ceased to be
And triangular is the garment thin
That fastens on with a safety pin
To a prize I had no wish to win
It's a lasting memory that my true love gave to me

Camouflage

Performer(s): The Temptations



Yes, I'm smiling
Everytime you pass me by
I know you wonder, why I never cry
But let me tell you, happiness (Happiness)
My happiness (Happiness)
Is just a camouflage (Camouflage)
They call me the joker (I'm a joker)
'Cause I... I always play
But I'm just a clown (I'm a clown)
'Cause I'm really not that way
'Cause all my happiness (Happiness)
My happiness (Happiness)
Oh, is just a camouflage
(Open your eyes and see I'm crying)
(Open your eyes and see I'm dying)
(Open your eyes and see I'm crying)
Wee-Ooo (Hey, hey, hey)

They call me the joker (The joker)
'Cause I... I always play
But I'm just a clown (I'm just a clown)
'Cause I'm really not that way
'Cause all my happiness (Happiness)
My happiness (Happiness)
Oh, is just a camouflage
(Open your eyes and see I'm crying) I love you
(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) Oh, yes I do
(Open your eyes and see I'm crying) Ooo, baby
(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) Ooo, baby
(Open your eyes and see I'm crying) I gotta broken heart
(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) I've got a broken heart
(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) Just a care of love
(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) Just a care of love
(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) I gotta broken heart
(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) I've got a broken heart
(Open your eyes and see I'm crying) Just a care of love
(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) Ooo

Farther Along
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Elvis Presley; The Byrds




(We'll understand it all by and by)

Tempted and tried we're oft' made to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long
While there are others living about us
Never molested, though in the wrong

Farther along we'll know more about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by

When death has come and taken our loved ones
Leaving our homes so lonely and drear
Then do we wonder how others prosper
Living so wicked year after year

Farther along we'll know more about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by

Ballad Of The One Eyed Jacks
Composer(s): Morgan
Performer(s): Johnny Burnette



A one-eyed Jack rode to Monterey in the heat of the blazing sun
When Sheriff Longworth saw Kid Rio, he strapped on his fast gun
The sheriff didn't trust the one eyed Jack nor the deadly smile he wore
An' when that night he shamed Louisa, in vengeance the sheriff swore

Beware of the one-eyed Jacks, especially if they're wild
One-eyed Jacks are deadly, even when they smile
Never trust a one-eyed Jack with his cold, cold heart of stone
He will only show one side to you, for his soul is the devil's own

Ten cracks of the sheriff's whip cut deep 
The pain-filled Rio cursed
"You'd better kill me while you can or I will get you first"
The angry sheriff raised his gun butt high, then smashed Rio's trigger hand
"You're done for now, you one-eyed Jack, you will kill no other man"

Beware of the one-eyed Jacks, especially if they're wild
One-eyed Jacks are deadly, even when they smile
Never trust a one-eyed Jack with his cold, cold heart of stone
He will only show one side to you, for his soul is the devil's own

The creaky iron doors slammed shut tight 
The one-eyed Jack was jailed
With Louisa's help he soon escaped for his true love had not failed
The horses rode off with the lovers two as the smokin' six guns burst
The sheriff aimed his gun at the one-eyed Jack, but the one-eyed Jack shot first

Beware of the one-eyed Jacks, especially if they're wild
One-eyed Jacks are deadly, even when they smile
Never trust a one-eyed Jack with his cold, cold heart of stone
He will only show one side to you, for his soul is the devil's own

Cammina Cammina
((French Version: Mamina (by Pascal Danel))
Performer(s): Dalida



Verso il sole se ne va
Di lui il mondo che ne sà
Io soltanto soffriro
Sono l'ultima che amo

Cammina, Cammina

Che cercava non so più
Io gli ho dato un po di più
Il moi letto e un po di me
Senza capire poi perchè

Cammina, Cammina

Mi ha lasciato le parole
Le mie tristezze stese al sole
Mi ha lasciato con il grano
Ma il cuore moi è lontano

Lui che aveva nelle mani
Uno a uno i miei domani
Nel vento tiepido di maggio
Senza coraggio se ne và

Cammina, Cammina

Mi ha lasciato le parole
Le mie tristezze stese al sole
Mi ha lasciato con grano
Ma il cuore moi è lontano
Verso io, io soltanto soffriro
Sono l'ultima che amo

Cammina,Cammina 

La, la, la...

Cammina, Cammina

Farsante
Composer(s): Homero Aguilar
Performer(s): Javier Solis; Chelo Silva



Con caricias dulces me dejaste ciego
y viví en tus brazos y viví en tus labios un amor fugaz
Y hoy que abrí los ojos te veo tal como eres
tú vives la farsa, tú vives la farsa de un amor falaz

Déjame decirte farsante, farsante eres muy farsante
déjame decirte que ahora te odio como antes te quise
Porque soy cobarde no puedo reñirte lo que me has quitado
llévatelo todo, mi vida, mi alma, mi amor destrozado

Que el cielo se apague por todas las partes donde tú te encuentres
que se sequen todos los labios que busques donde refugiarte
y que al fin vencida te arrastre la vida llevando en tu mente 
mi grito de angustia: farsante, farsante

Que el cielo se apague por todas las partes donde tú te encuentres
que se sequen todos los labios que busques donde refugiarte
y que al fin vencida te arrastre la vida llevando en tu mente 
mi grito de angustia: farsante, farsante

Ballad Of The Blue Cyclone
Composer(s): Glen Sutton
Performer(s): Ray Stevens



Well, you've heard of Samson and Hercules 
They both brought a lot of folks to their knees
And throughout history their legends have grown and grown
Then there was Tarzan and Superman and Captain Marvel with the cool Shazam
But there weren't even any that compare to the Blue Cyclone

In a little bar one Wedensday night, me and ole Bill was about half tight
Comparin' Dolly Pardon to Lana Turner and Liz
When Bill winked at me and downed his beer and said 
"Hoss, there ain't nothin' happenin' here!"
"Let's go to the rasslin' matches where the action is!"

Well, I'd never seen the matches before and when we reached the arena door
The crowd was already backed up out in the street
And people were pushin' and shovin' like cattle 
Just gettin' in line was a heck of a battle
We had to fight like hell but we finally got ring side seats

Then we bought a progam as we passed though the door 
Went section D, seats three and four
And about that time the announcer stepped in the ring
He said, "Tonight's the greatest card ever been signed 
We got a tag team match that'll blow yer mind!"
And they lowered the lights and the crowd began to scream

He introduced the Spider from parts unknown with his trusty partner, the Blue Cyclone
They were takin' on a team that never had been beat
Well, the ref checked 'em over the rules were explained 
And somebody hollered, "The Spider's got a chain!"
And in come the Vulture with his manager, Sneaky Pete

Then they rang the bell and all hell broke loose 
My legs were shakin' like a rubber goose
'Cause I'd never seen anything like this, not even in the war! 
Cyclone put the Vulture in an airplane spin 
Then he body slammed him then he did it again
And I swear I didn't see how that cat could take much more

Then a little old lady right next to me 
Why, if she was a day, she was eighty-three
But she raised more sin than any man I've ever seen
She screamed and cussed in the Cyclone's face 
Till they carried her away like a basket case
Then the po-lice came and formed a circle around the ring

Then on the second row up jumped a man 
I could see a pocket knife in his hand
He hollered, "Let me in there and I'll mop up the floor!"
His wife reached up and grabbed his sleeve 
And I saw him breath a sigh of releif
And then he sat down and he never did say no more

It was right about there in the thick of things 
That my buddy, Bill threw a chair in the ring
And that's when I knew that we'd better head for the door
'Cause I saw that Cyclone lookin' at us and he rubbed his head and started to cuss
And I knew if he caught us he'd break Bill's neck for sure

Well, where we'd parked wasn't that far and Bill ran so fast he beat me to the car
And locked the doors and wasn't 'bout to let nobody in
And I turned around and Cyclone was there and he said 
"Hey, punk! You forgot yer chair!"
And by the look in his eyes I knew that this was the end

Then he jumped up real high in the air and both feet caught me with a flyin' mare
And I saw stars when I hit that hard concrete
It broke both of my arms and three of my ribs, it's the closet thing I've come to bein' killed
That's the last thing I remember before he put me to sleep!

Put that sleeper on me...
You know, I oughtta slam Bill! Heh! Lockin' the car doors like that!
Left me out there to fight the Cyclone by myself...
Heh! I ain't a rassler!
I'll tell you one thing... Cyclone was lucky I was drinkin'!
Soon as I get well... He's had it! 
I'll get him if it's the last thing I ever do...

Caminos Diferentes
Composer(s): Alfredo Gil
Performer(s): Javier Solís



Nos confiamos tantas cosas nos hablamos dulcemente
y entre besos y más besos nos amamos tiernamente
Fueron tantas confidencias remembranzas del pasado
y con lágrimas clavamos del amor nuestro pecado

Hemos tomado caminos diferentes uno del otro
a Dios le pido con fervor olvidarte poco a poco
Nos miramos con tristeza, suspiramos hondamente
y sin decirnos adiós nos dijimos hasta siempre

Hemos tomado caminos diferentes uno del otro
a Dios le pido con fervor olvidarte poco a poco
Nos miramos con tristeza, suspiramos hondamente
y sin decirnos adiós nos dijimos hasta siempre 

Faro-La, Faro-Li (Song Of The New Wine)
Composer(s): Curt Siodmak; Hans J. Salter
Performer(s): Adia Kuznetzoff;
Judy Kaye And The Scarlettes



Come one and all and sing a song
Faro-la, faro-li!
For life is short, but death is long
Faro-la, faro-li!
There'll be no music in the tomb
So sing with joy and down with gloom
Tonight the new wine is in bloom
Faro-la, faro-li!

Tonight we toast our happy host
Faro-la, faro-li!
For he's the man we love the most
Faro-la, faro-li!
He's barrel-chested, dipper-lipped
For drinking wine, he's well-equipped
But where's his chest? It must have slipped
Faro-la, faro-li!

If Franzec never drank at all
Faro-la, faro-li!
He might not care for alchohol
Faro-la, faro-li!
But since he drinks them by the score
He loves his bottles more and more
He even likes them on the floor
Faro-la, faro-li!

Now here's a pair of newly-weds
Faro-la, faro-li!
With love and kisses in their heads
Faro-la, faro-li!
Tonight theres only he and she
Just one and two, as you can see
But very soon they may be three
Faro-la, faro-li!

The wine tonight is nobly blessed
Faro-la, faro-li!
By such a lady and her guest
Faro-la, faro-li!
To them a toast, come drink with me
That they may ever happy be
And may they live eternally
Faro-la, faro-li!

Paladin, Paladin, where do you roam
Paladin, Paladin, far, far from home

Have gun, will travel reads the card of a man
A knight without armour in a savage land
His fast gun for hire heeds the calling wind
A soldier of fortune is the man called Paladin

Paladin, Paladin, where do you roam
Paladin, Paladin, far, far from home

He travels on to wherever he must
A chess knight of silver is his badge of trust
There are campfire legends that the plainsmen spin
Of the man with the gun, of the man called Paladin

Paladin, Paladin, where do you roam
Paladin, Paladin, far, far from home
Far from home
Far from home

Camino Del Indio

Performer(s): Atahualpa Yupanqui
and multiple other artists



Caminito del indio
sendero coya sembrao de piedras
caminito del indio
que junta el valle con las estrellas
Caminito que anduvo
de sur a norte mi raza vieja
antes que en la montaña
la Pachamama se ensombreciera 

Cantando en el cerro
llorando en el río
se agranda en la noche
la pena del indio
El sol y la luna
y este canto mío
besaron tus piedras
camino del indio 

En la noche serrana
llora la quena su honda nostalgia
y el caminito sabe
cuál es la chola que el indio llama 

Se levanta en el cerro
la voz doliente de la baguala
y el camino lamenta
ser el culpable de la distancia 

Cantando en el cerro ...
