The Dollar Bill Song
Composer(s): Andy Breckman
Performer(s): Andy Breckman



She took a dollar bill from her wallet
She picked up a fountain pen
She wrote down the words 'I love you'
Next to the picture of George Washington

She took the dollar bill to the grocery store
And bought herself a chocolate cake
She gave the dollar bill to the grocery man
And then she went back home to wait

The grocery man gave the dollar bill
To a fat guy from Baton Rouge
He spent the bill at the hardware store
On a box of flat-top screws

The hardware store gave the dollar bill
To a customer named Clive
Who, by the way, is the son
Of one of the original Dave Clark Five

He spent the bill at the laundramat
They gave it to a lady named Fran
Fran's younger son stole the bill from her purse
And went to see Star Wars again

The movie theatre guy spent the dollar bill
On a subway ride uptown
Three minutes later the bill was in the pocket
Of a gamblin' man named Brown

Brown blew the bill in a poker game
He was fishin' for an inside straight
The dollar went home with a man named Jones
Who was sitting on a pair of eights

Jones took the bill to a savings bank
The teller's name was Dan
Dan gave the bill to
Oh my God, it's Rabbi Finkelman

I'm with you all the time
I can hear ya loud and clear
Just give a tug along the line
Ya know I will be there

Anyway the Rabbi spent the bill
On a ham and cheese to go
They gave the bill to a guy named Phil
Who gave it to his best friend Joe

Joe had planned to spend it
On some flowers for his bride
But he was mugged by a junkie named Doug
In the parking lot outside

Doug's old lady spent the bill
On a couple o' cans o' beer
She eventually becomes a very famous poet
But that don't matter here

The liquor store guy put the dollar bill
In his register, but then
Doug the junkie said "Stick 'em up"
And the dollar was his again

He gave the bill to a girl named Jill
Who gave it to a girl named Flo
She gave the bill to a real short guy
Who's name I do not know

He gave the bill to another short guy
Who gave it to a guy named Jake
Jake took the bill to a bar 'n' grill
And bought himself a sirloin steak

Later that day I happened to say
"Think I'll stop by the bar 'n' grill"
The cashier counted out my change
And handed me the dollar bill

Well I ran to a phone and I dialled in her number
As fast as my fingers could do
I said "Baby, I just got your message"
I said "Baby,I love you too"

I said, I am with you all the time
I can hear you loud and clear
Just give a tug along the line
You know I will be there"

I said, Mary, you don't need no dime
You don't need no subway fare
Just give a tug along the line
I said I'm with you everywhere
I said I'm with you everywhere
I said I'm with you everywhere

One morning I woke up and I knew
You were really gone
A new day, a new way, I knew
I should see it along
Go your way, I'll go mine and
Carry on

The sky is clearing and the night
Has gone out
The sun, he come, the world
is all full of light
Rejoice, rejoice, we have no choice but
To carry on

The fortunes of fables are able
To sing the song
Now witness the quickness with which
We get along
To sing the blues you've got to live the tunes and
Carry on

Carry on
Love is coming
Love is coming to us all

Where are you going now my love?
Where will you be tomorrow?
Will you bring me happiness?
Will you bring me sorrow?
Oh, the questions of a thousand dreams
What you do and what you see
Lover can you talk to me?

Girl when I was on my own
Chasing you down
What was it made you run?
Trying your best just to get around
The questions of a thousand dreams
What you do and what you see
Lover can you talk to me?

À mon amour qui m'a tout pardonné
Souvent je lui donne
À mon ami sur qui je peux compter
Souvent je lui donne
Fleurs d'amour et d'amitié aussi
Vont toujours avec ce collier
Fleurs de joies et fleurs de l'espoir aussi
C'est pour ça que je vous les ai cueillies

Sans un amour un homme n'est plus rien
Oh non sans personne
Sans un ami à qui tendre la main, ho non
Et je donne

Pour tout l'amour que je vois dans vos yeux
Souvent je vous donne
Vous mes amis qui m'écoutez en ce moment
Je vous donne
Fleurs d'amour et d'amitié aussi
Vont toujours avec ce collier
Fleurs de joies et fleurs de l'espoir aussi
C'est pour ça que je vous les ai cueillies

Fleurs d'amour et d'amitié aussi
Mets autour du cou ce collier
Fleurs de peines nous verrons pousser ainsi
Des jardins pour embellir notre vie

Fleurs d'amour fleurs d'amitié
Fleurs d'amour fleurs d'amitié
Fleurs d'amour fleurs d'amitié
Fleurs d'amour ouais fleurs d'amour...

Second street and broadway
Sitting in a doorway
Head held in his hands
Looked to all the world
Like he was praying
Foot wrapped in an old rag
Bottle in a brown bag
I saw him try to stand
Then I heard the words that he was saying

He said

Come on carrie carry me a little farther
Come on carrie carry me one more mile
I dont know where its leading to
But I know I can make it if I lean on you so
Come on carrie, carry me a little
I carried you so now carry me a little
Come on carrie carry me.. a little while yeah

He stumbled to his feet and he staggered down the street
To the window of a five and dime
He stopped and laughed a while at his reflection
Then I heard him shouting something 'bout a mountain
He could surely climb, if she was only there to point
The right direction

(But she ain't no.. no she ain't nooooo)

Come on carrie carry me a little farther
Come on carrie carry me one more mile
I dont know where its leading to
But I know I can make it if I lean on you so
Come on carrie, carry me a little
I carried you so now carry me a little
Come on carrie carry me.. a little while yeah

Got ta' carry me! carry me carrie!
Got ta' carry me!

Fleur De Lune
(Adapted from: Song of Winter - 1969)
Composer(s): Françoise Hardy - Micky Jones - Tommy Brown
Performer(s): Françoise Hardy - 1970



Suis-je la fleur de lune
Ou bien l'eau qui dort
Je suis née dans une brume
Là où le vent vient du nord
Suis-je l'herbe sauvage
Ou le ciel de pluie
Viens te prendre à mon mirage
Te noyer dans mes yeux gris
Ou que tu sois je t'appelle
Je sais que tu m'entends
Je sais qu'il faudra que tu viennes
Ma cage est grande ouverte et ma prison t'attends
Suis-je l'étoile ou l'algue
Suis-je le faut semblant
Viens t'enrouler dans mes vagues
Elles ont comme un gout de sang
Ou que tu sois je t'appelle
Je sais que tu m'entends
Je sais qu'il faudra que tu viennes
Ma cage est grande ouverte et ma prison t'attends
Suis-je la fleur de lune
Ou bien l'eau qui dort
Suis-je l'herbe sauvage
Ou le ciel de pluie
Viens dans mon mirage
Au fond de mon nid

The Doctor
Composer(s): Tom Johnston - Charlie Midnight - Eddie Schwartz
Performer(s): The Doobie Brothers



I'm a man who lives in the city
I'm a man who lives in the street
From F.L.A. to Frisco Bay
And everywhere in between 
Coast to coast there's a question
Everybody's always askin' me
People want to know everywhere I go
What can the answer be 

Music is the doctor
Makes you feel like you want to
Listen to the doctor
Just like you ought to
Music is the doctor of my soul 

Well it seems that when I travel
And I'm out there on the road
The freedom I need is the freedom I leave
In my good time rock and roll 

There's a healing in those guitars
And a spirit in the song
No matter what condition your rhythm is in
The message goes on and on 

Music is the doctor
Makes you feel like you want to
Listen to the doctor
Just like you ought to
Music is the doctor of my soul 

If you ever wonder
How to shake your blues
Just follow this prescription
And get the cure for what's ailin' you 

Music is the doctor
Makes you feel like you want to
Listen to the doctor
Just like you ought to
Music is the doctor of my soul

Carry Me Home
Composer(s): Chris Hillman - Steve Hill
Performer(s): Chris Hillman



It's late I can't sleep
There's a voice calling me
Here it comes again and I don't know why I know it  
Will she ever set me free
Will she tell me something new and make me hear the night
Make me belive again
It'll be alright
All the walls came tumbling down
The sky opened up and took her in
No time to gather no time to win
No time to fall in love again
Oh Carry me home let me live again
I just can't let it go
I can't get back to where I've been

Mabye I'm crazy I'm showing all the signs
It feels like I'm falling thru an old vintage mine 
I can't find the answers
Blowing in the wind come on
Carry me home let me love again
I know she's not really here
I hear her voice just the same
She'd be right beside me if we lived in a perfect world
And she'd whisper out my name
She said carry me home let me love again
I just can't let it go
I can't get back to where I've been come on
Carry me home let me love again
I just can't let it go
I can't get back to where I've been

Fleur de Cactus, ma petite sœur
Tu es choisie par le Seigneur
Pour fleurir en Sa maison
Tout au long des jours de ta vie
Fleur de Cactus, ma petite sœur
Tu es choisie par le Seigneur
Pour chanter la gloire de son nom
Sur les sentiers du Paradis

Lorsque frère âne, certains soirs
Te dit "J'en ai assez"
Lorsque frère âne, certains soirs
Te dit de déserter
Souviens-toi...

Et quand la folle du logis
Te dit, c'est insensé
Et quand la folle du logis
Te dit de renoncer
Souviens-toi...

Si le soleil et le grand vent
Te parlent de liberté
Si le soleil et le grand vent
Te disent de t'évader
Souviens-toi ...

The Other Side Of The Sun
((Dutch Version: De Andere Kant Van De Maan (Conny Vandenbos) - 1980))
Composer(s): Albert Hammond - Janis Ian
First release by: Janis Ian - 1979



Leaving on a boat
For beyond the other side of the ocean
I’ll bet you in the morning
You won’t even know I’m gone
Tired of living here
In the middle of a mixed emotion
I might as well be living
On the other side of the sun
Leaving with the feeling
I don’t know how I’m dealing
With loving you
Though once I knew
The special way
And what to do
To make you stay
Forever and ever
Even as I’m leaving
I’ll never stop believing
You are the one
Who can make me laugh
And can bring me back
From beyond the other side of the sun
Rolling down the river
I hope I can deliver the morning
Wishing on a star
For the sun to come out and play
Funny, when it’s over
You really don’t remember the warnings
You might as well be living
Out beyond the Milky Way
(Forever and ever)
Leaving with the feeling
I don’t know how I’m dealing
With loving you
Though once I knew
The special way
And what to do
To make you stay
Forever and ever
Even as I’m leaving
I’ll never stop believing
You are the one
Who can make me laugh
And can bring me back
From beyond the other side of the sun
Leaving with the feeling
I don’t know how I’m dealing
With loving you
Though once I knew
The special way
And what to do
To make you stay
Forever and ever
Even as I’m leaving
I’ll never stop believing
You are the one
Who can make me laugh
And can bring me back
From beyond the other side of the sun
From beyond the other side of the sun

Carry Me Back
Composer(s): Harold Reid - Don Reid
Performer(s): The Statler Brothers



Carry me back, Lord, while I still got the time

Is Jimmy through servin' his hitch with Uncle Sam?
Do the kids still spend Saturday nights drivin' 'round Hamburger Dan's?
Did Jackie ever make it to the streets of Hollywood?
And Bobby, I'd love to see him again, & I would if I could

Carry me back & make me feel at home
Let me cling to those mem'ries that won't let me alone
Where it was always summer and she was always mine
Carry me back, Lord, while I still got the time

Does the preacher still visit when sun or snow gets down?
Do the stores still stay open on Friday nights downtown?
Is JoAnn still as pretty as when she wore my high school ring?
When you see her, tell her I said July 1959; she'll know what I mean

Carry me back & make me feel at home
Let me cling to those mem'ries that won't let me alone
Where it was always summer and she was always mine
Carry me back, Lord, while I still got the time

Carry me back, Lord, while I still got the time

Flesh And Blood
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
Performer(s): Johnny Cash; Mary Chapin Carpenter; 
Concombre Zombi; Chris Knight



Beside a singin' mountain stream
Where the willow grew
Where the silver leaf of maple
Sparkled in the mornin' dew
I braided twigs of willow
Made a string of buckeye beads
But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need
Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need

I leaned against a bark of birch
And I breathed the honey dew
I saw a north-bound flock of geese
Against a sky of baby blue
Beside the lily pads
I carved a whistle from a reed
Mother Nature's quite a lady
But you're the one I need
But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need

A cardinal sang just for me
And I thanked him for the song
Then the sun went slowly down the west
And I had to move along
These were some of the things
On which my mind and spirit feed
But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need
Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need

So when this day was ended
I was still not satisfied
For I knew everything I touched
Would wither and would die
And love is all that will remain
And grow from all these seed
Mother Nature's quite a lady
But you're the one I need
Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need

My trombones and clarinets
Come complete with sharps and flats

And the weakest dollar down

There’s a song in every horn
And you’ll never be forlorn

With the Dixie brand!

Violins, sweet guitars that you can strum
Buy a pair of drumsticks now
And I’ll throw in a lovely drum!
And for just a dollar down
Be the gayest man in town
With the Dixie brand!
With the Dixie brand!

Carry Me Back
Performer(s): Andy Summers



Creep in through my window
Dance upon the wall
Come in here beside me
Climb into my soul
Take me to the water
Down into the cool
Everlasting memory
Everlasting pool

Aching in the darkness
Burning in the sun
Calling from the water
This life has just begun
Strength of blood and muscle
Life of wood and bone
Searching for a fire
Searching for a home...
Home...home...home...

Crouching in the darkness
Hiding in the stone
Trembling in the darkness
This man is not alone
Hit me by the memory
Hurt me to the bone
Make my fists with starlight
Carry me back home...
Home...

(Home)
(Home) Ay...yah
(Home) Ay...yah

Hear them say ay-yah... (Ay-yah, ay-yah, we say "ay-yah", ay-yah) ...

She leaned way back just to starighten up her hose
Well the ice cream melted and the coffee froze

The Dipsy Doodle
Composer(s): Larry Clinton
Performer(s): Tommy Dorsey
and multiple other artists



 The dipsy doodle is the thing to beware
The dipsy doodle will get in your hair
And if it gets you, it couldn't be worse
The things you say will come out in reverse
Like "You love I and me love you!"
That's the way the dipsy doodle works
You can't eat, you can't sleep 
You go crazy
You're just a victim of the dipsy doodle
And it's not your mind that's hazy
It's your heart that's at fault - not your noodle
You better listen and try to be good
And try to do all the things that you should
The dipsy doodle will get you some day
And when it gets you the things you will say
Like the moon jumped over the cow - hey diddle!
That's the way the dipsy doodle works

Carry Me

Performer(s): The Band



Sometimes life can hit so hard
It can knock you off your feet
Leave you stranded by the side of the road
Livin' on the street

I've been down that path before
From the bottom to the top
I kept pushin' for something more
And I didn't know how to stop

Save me from the madness
Save me from myself
Save me from the sadness
Of losing someone else

Carry me carry me
Carry me carry me
Carry me home
Carry me home

When I'm down
You lift me up
When I'm out you reel me in
You have come to change my blood
Forgive me for my sins

Carry me carry me
Carry me carry me
Carry me home
Carry me home

Save me from the darkness
Save me from the hardness
Carry me carry me
Carry me home

Just the other night
I saw a haunted man
He had a beautiful raincoat
I felt a pain of terrific sadness for him
Then I realized I was watching myself
Six months down the road

You know God
Only gives you
The things you sort out
Never the big stuff
That way he can make sure
That you stick around until
The end of the party

Carry me carry me
Carry me carry me
Carry me home
Carry me home

Save me from the darkness
Save me from the hardness

Carry me carry me
Carry me carry me
Carry me home

L'eau cette glace non posée
Cet immeuble cette mouvance
Cette procédure mouillée
Nous fait prisonnier sa cadence
Nous dit de rester dans le clan
A mâchonner les reverdures
Sous les neiges de ce printemps
A faire au froid bonne mesure

Cette matière nous parlant
Ce silence troué de formes
Et ces marins nous appelant
Nos pas que le sable déforme
Cette cruelle exhalaison
Qui monte des nuits de l'enfance
Quand on respire à reculons
Une goulée de souvenance

Vers le vertige des suspects
Sous la question qui les hasarde
Vers le monde des muselés
De la bouche et des mains cafardes
Nous prierons Dieu quand Dieu priera
Et nous coucherons sa compagne
Sur nos grabats d'où chantera
La chanterelle de nos pagnes

Mais Dieu ne fait pas le détail
Il ne prête qu'à ses lumières
Au renouvellement du bail
Nous lui parlerons de son père
Du fils de l'homme et du destin
Quand nous descendrons sur la grève
Et que dans la mer de satin
Luiront les lèvres de nos rêves

Nous irons sonner la Raison
A la colle de prétentaine
Réveille-toi pour la saison
C'est la Folie qui se ramène
A bientôt Raison à bientôt
Ici quelquefois tu nous manques
Si tu armais tous nos bateaux
Nous serions ta Folie de planque

On danse ce soir sur le quai
Une rumba pas très cubaine
Ça n'est plus Messieurs les Anglais
Qui tirent leurs coups Capitaine!
On a Jésus dans nos cirés
Son tabernacle sous nos châles
Pour quand s'en viendront se mouiller
Vos torpilleurs sous nos bengales

Et ces maisons gantées de vent
Avec leur fichu de tempête
Quand la vague leur ressemblant
Met du champagne sur nos têtes
Ces toits leurs tuiles et nous et toi
Cette raison de nous survivre
Entends le bruit qui vient d'en bas
C'est la mer qui ferme son livre...

The Diplomat
Composer(s): Roger Bowling
Performer(s): Johnny Cash



He slowly raised the trembling hand
Gently brushed the silver strand of hair from his wrinkled brow
Lips that used to talk so free 
The eyes that used to beckon me were silent now
He listens to a passin' train 
Gives into an old familiar pain, familiar pain

They retired him twenty years ago gave him a watch made of gold and took his train

His woman's name was Margaret
He loved her but she went away and left his heart undone
He called this train the Diplomat 
She's the only other lady that he ever loved

Some forty years he made the steam
From Memphis down to New Orleans but now he's off the line
And the closest that he ever gets 
To Margaret or the Diplomat is in his mind

He said take me to the station the Diplomat is bringing Margaret home
Can't you hear that whistle blowing they both know I've been alone for much too long
Let's not keep 'em waitin' we'll talk about the good times later on
Right now take me to the station the Diplomat is bringing Margaret home

They say he talks crazy when
He sees the passin' train or when he hears Margaret's name
But the only things he ever loved 
He lost before he loved enough, he's not to blame

So who's to say he's right or wrong
Reachin' out and hangin' on 
To dreams he can't let go
He threw the watch of gold away but keeps tracks of memories where he belongs

He said take me to the station the Diplomat is bringing Margaret home
Can't you hear that whistle blowing they both know I've been alone for much too long
Let's not keep 'em waitin' we'll talk about the good times later on
Right now take me to the station the Diplomat is bringing Margaret home

They retired him twenty years ago gave him a watch made of gold
And took daddy's train

Hey, Carrie-Anne
Hey, Carrie-Anne
When we were at school, our games were simple
I played a janitor, you played a monitor
Then you played with older boys and prefects
What's the attraction in what they're doing?
Hey, Carrie-Anne, what's your game now?
Can anybody play?
Hey, Carrie-Anne, what's your game now?
Can anybody play?
You were always something special to me
quite independent, never caring
You lost your charm as you were aging
Where is your magic disappearing?
You're so, so like a woman to me (so lke a woman to me)
So, so like a woman to me (like a woman to me)
People live and learn but you're still learning
You use my mind and I'll be your teacher
When the lesson's over, you'll be with me
Then I'll hear the other people saying
Carrie-Anne, Carrie-Anne, Carrie-Anne
