    The First Day Of Summer
    Composer(s): L. Miller - E. Cassen - M. Littman - R. Butler
    Performer(s): Lou Preager Orch. And Eileen Orchard



    I’ve made a date for the first day of summer
    A date when the skies are blue
    There’ll be songbirds to meet me
    And rosebuds to greet me
    When I’m on my way to you

    We will meet at the church of St. Mary
    When the joy bells begin to chime
    What a wonderful day for a wedding
    The first day of summer time

    What a wonderful day for a wedding
    The first day of summer time

    Cathy's Clown ((French Version: Le P'tit Clown De Ton Coeur (Johnny Hallyday) - 1960)) Composer(s): Don Everly First release by: The Everly Brothers - 1960 Covered by multiple other artists



    Don't want your love anymore
    Don't want your kisses that's for sure
    I die each time I hear this sound
    Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown

    I've gotta stand tall
    You know a man can't crawl
    For when he knows you're tellin' lies
    And he lets them pass him by

    He's not a man at all
    Don't want your love anymore
    Don't want your kisses that's for sure
    I die each time I hear this sound

    Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown
    When you see me shed a tear
    And you know that it's sincere
    Don't you think it's kind of sad

    That you're treating me so bad
    Or don't you even care
    Don't want your love anymore
    Don't want your kisses that's for sure

    I die each time I hear this sound
    Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown
    That's Cathy's clown.....

    Covered by multiple other artists



    I would have given you all of my heart
    but there's someone who's torn it apart
    and she's taking almost all that I've got
    but if you want, I'll try to love again
    baby I'll try to love again but I know

    The first cut is the deepest, baby I know
    The first cut is the deepest
    'cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed
    when it comes to lovin' me she's worse
    but when it comes to being loved she's first
    that's how I know

    The first cut is the deepest, baby I know
    The first cut is the deepest

    I still want you by my side
    just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
    cause I'm sure gonna give you a try
    and if you want, I'll try to love again
    but baby, I'll try to love again, but I know

    The first cut is the deepest, baby I know
    The first cut is the deepest

    'Cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed
    when it comes to lovin' me she's worse
    but when it comes to being loved she's first
    that's how I know

    Cathy Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Jimmy Van Heusen Performer(s): Vic Damone; Shelly Manne; Buddy Rich



    If you never met an angel then you must meet Cathy
    Cathy's everything you've dreamed an angel ought to be
    There's music everytime she sighs
    Her smile is every sweet surprise
    You simply won't believe your eyes wait and see

    Chapel windows when they catch the morning sun that's Cathy
    How can merely touching someone's hand seem so divine
    You might as well prepare to fall in love with Cathy
    Or you'll lose your heart to Cathy just as I lost mine

    You might as well prepare to fall in love with Cathy
    Or you'll lose your heart to Cathy just as I lost mine
    Yes you'll lose your heart to Cathy just as I lost mine

    and various other artists



    Fool that I am
    For falling in love with you
    And, fool that I am
    For thinking you loved me, too

    You took my heart
    Then played the part of little coquette
    And, my dreams just disappeared
    Like the smoke from a cigarette

    Fool that I am
    For hoping you’d understand
    And thinking you
    Would listen, too
    And, oh, the things I had planned

    But we couldn’t see eye to eye
    So, darling, darling, darling
    This is goodbye
    But I still care, but I still care
    And oh, fool that I am
    Oh, but I still care
    Fool that I am

    Well they call me the fireman, that's my name
    Making my rounds all over town, putting out old flames
    Well everybody'd like to have a what I got
    I can cool 'em down when they're smold'ring hot
    I'm the fireman, that's my name

    Last night they had a bad one a mile or two down the road
    Well my buddy walked out and left his woman burning out of control
    Well I was down there in about an hour or so
    With a little mouth to mouth she was ready to go
    I'm the fireman, that's my name

    Well they call me the fireman, that's my name
    Making my rounds all over town, putting out old flames
    Well everybody'd like to have a what I got
    I can cool 'em down when they're smold'ring hot
    I'm the fireman, that's my name

    Got a fire engine red - T - bird automobile
    In a minute or less I can be dressed fit to kill
    I work 24 on, 24 off
    When they get too hot, they just give me a call
    I'm the fireman, that's my name

    Well they call me the fireman, that's my name
    Making my rounds all over town, putting out old flames
    Well everybody'd like to have a what I got
    I can cool 'em down when they're smold'ring hot
    I'm the fireman, that's my name

    They call me the fireman, that's my name

    Cathouse Blues
    Performer(s): Stevie Nicks



    Cathouse blues
    I wear the high airs
    The high heel shoes
    Whoa ...
    Darling, it's hard to be surrounded
    Where the women are lazy
    And the men are rude
    I got the cat walk, don't talk blues
    I creep on cat's feet
    I don't speak loose
    Your self in velvet
    Forget we ever met
    I got the clothes
    And the cathouse blues
    Blue-gray eyes that say
    I guess you don't remember
    I guess that I was younger
    To say the cat sleeps alone
    Sleeps only in the sun
    But shield away the night
    And she'll be gone
    Singing the cathouse blues
    I need some new red velvet shoes
    I'm still a dreamer's fancy
    They say I'm pretty classy
    I'm just a feline-silky cat come true
    I'm just a feline-silky cat come true
    I'm just a feline-silky cat come true
    Yeah ...

    Fool Number One
    Composer(s): Kathryn R. Fulton
    Performer(s): Brenda Lee



    Am I fool number one or am I fool number two
    How many other girls have been fooled by you
    I suppose that the number is far from being small
    And I'll bet that I'm the biggest fool of all

    If I had the chance I guess I'd do it all again
    I'd go down that same old road even knowing at the end
    You'll leave me when your heart hears a new love call
    So I'll guess that I'm the biggest fool of all

    Am I fool number one or am I fool number two
    How many other girls have been fooled by you
    I suppose that the number is far from being small
    And I'll guess that I'm the biggest fool of all

    Covered by multiple other artists



    Here comes old Rosie she's looking mighty fine
    Here comes hot Nancy she's steppin' right on time
    There go the street lights bringin on the night
    Here come the men faces hidden from the light
    All through the shadows they come and they go
    With only one thing in common
    They got the fire down below

    Here comes the rich man in his big long limousine
    Here comes the poor man all you got to have is green
    Here comes the banker and the lawyer and the cop
    One thing for certain it ain't never gonna stop
    When it all gets too heavy
    That's when they come and go
    With only one thing in common
    They got the fire down below

    It happens out in Vegas happens in Moline
    On the blue blood streets of Boston
    Up in Berkeley and out in Queens
    And it went on yesterday and it's going on tonight
    Somewhere there's somebody ain't treatin' somebody right

    And he's looking out for Rosie and she's looking mighty fine
    And he's walking the streets for Nancy
    And he'll find her everytime
    When the street light flicker bringing ont he night
    Well they'll be slipping into darkness slipping out of sight
    All through the midnight
    Watch 'em come and watch 'em go
    With only one thing in common
    They got the fire down below

    Performer(s): Led Zeppelin;
    Azzlzz Band; Maná; Rick Wakeman



    Well there's a light in your eye that keeps shining
    Like a star that can't wait for the night
    I hate to think I've been blinded baby
    Why can't I see you tonight?

    And the warmth of your smile starts a-burnin'
    And the thrill of your touch gives me fright
    And I'm shaking so much, really yearning
    Why don't you show up, make it all right?
    Yeah, it's all right

    And if you promised you'd love so completely
    and you said you would always be true
    You swore that you would never leave me, baby
    What ever happened to you?

    And you thought it was only in movies
    As you wish all your dreams would come true
    It ain't the first time believe me, baby
    I'm standin here feeling blue
    Yeah I'm blue

    Now I will stand in the rain on the corner
    I'll watch the people go shuffling downtown
    Another ten minutes no longer
    And then I'm turning around

    The clock on the wall's moving slower
    My heart it sinks to the ground
    And the storm that I thought would blow over
    Clouds the light of the love that I found

    Now my body is starting to quiver
    And the palms of my hands getting wet
    I've got no reason to doubt you baby,
    It's all a terrible mess

    I'll run in the rain till I'm breathless
    When I'm breathless I'll run till I drop, hey
    The thoughts of a fool's kind of careless
    I'm just a fool waiting on the wrong block, oh yeah
    Light of the love that I found...

    Someone broke into my heart and stole a beat or two
    The finger of suspicion points at you
    Someone took away my sleep and never left a clue
    The finger of suspicion points at you

    Just as soon as they can make the guilty one confess
    I know exactly what I'm gonna do
    I'll take and lock her charms forever in my arms
    Then who is bound to be the guilty who
    The finger of suspicion points at you

    The things I said to her are on my mind
    Things I said so selfishly, didn't mean a thing to me
    But now I know that she was being kind
    Didn't want me to be hurt, no one there to change my shirt

    Catherine cares
    Now I know she does, oh yes she does, oh yeah
    Catherine cares
    Yeah, I know that I was wrong
    Catherine cares
    Yeah, the only thing she wants is to have her baby home

    No matter what I got, I just complained
    She'd give her last to see me smile, tried to keep me dressed in style
    But I had this ambition in my brain
    So I walked out and left her there without a thought, without a care

    Catherine cares
    Now I know she does, oh yes she does, oh yeah
    Catherine cares
    Yeah, I know that I was wrong
    Catherine cares
    Yeah, the only thing she wants is to have her baby home

    Each time that I come home she says the same
    "C'mon home, you're getting thin, see the state your clothes are in"
    She's my mom and Catherine's her name
    Gives a pound to see me straight, sits back in her chair to wait

    Now I know she does, oh yes she does, oh yeah

    Fool Hearted Memory
    Composer(s): Blake Mevis; David Wills
    Performer(s): George Strait



    Nickels and dimes
    Memories and wines
    She's on his mind once again
    The same old fool
    The same old stool
    Played by the rules but didn't win
    There's an old love in his heart that he can't lose
    He tried forgetting but he knows that it's no use

    He's got a fool hearted memory
    That won't let him see
    That she walked out the door
    He's got a fool hearted memory
    He sits patiently
    Here every night so it can fool him more

    She was his girl
    His only world
    That string of pearls that slipped away
    A thousand dimes
    A thousand times
    He doesn't mind what they say
    He fills the jukebox
    And plays the same old song
    He fills his glass
    And then he turns her memory on

    He's got a fool hearted memory
    That won't let him see
    That she walked out the door
    He's got a fool hearted memory
    He sits patiently
    Here every night so it can fool him more

    He's got a fool hearted memory
    That won't let him see
    That she walked out the door
    He's got a fool hearted memory
    He sits patiently
    Here every night so it can fool him more

    Finest Drops
    Composer(s): Wire
    Performer(s): Wire



    The island monkeys love the dark
    No one is home, they're thin-skinned sharks
    Hue exchanging gives sea-leg walks
    No one is home, the chemicals talk

    Load up the spoiled goods
    Hook up the spoiled gods
    Fill up the kindness cups
    Drink up the finest drops

    Feeding frenzy, sleepless attacks
    No one is home, power attracts
    Death on a raft, life in a whale
    No one is home to finish the tale

    Paint it red, light it in blue
    No one is home over at the zoo
    Lashing together, a timbre design
    No one is home, no one is blind

    The last boat launched, cling to the rail
    No one is home, they're in full sail
    Forging chains, caught on the tracks
    No one is home and they're not coming back

    The island monkeys love the dark
    No one is home, they've gone for a walk
    The island monkeys love the dark
    No one is home, the chemicals talk

    Cathedral
    Composer(s): Graham Nash

    Six o' clock
    In the morning, I feel pretty good
    So I dropped into the luxury of the Lords
    Fighting dragons and crossing swords
    With the people against the hordes
    Who came to conquer

    Seven o'clock
    In the morning, here it comes
    I taste the warning and I am so amazed
    I'm here today, seeing things so clear this way
    In the car and on my way
    To Stonehenge

    I'm flying in Winchester cathedral
    Sunlight pouring through the break of day
    Stumbled through the door and into the chamber
    There's a lady setting flowers on a table covered lace
    And a cleaner in the distance finds a cobweb on a face
    And a feeling deep inside of me tells me
    This can't be the place

    I'm flying in Winchester cathedral
    All religion has to have its day
    Expressions on the face of the Saviour
    Made me say
    I can't stay

    Open up the gates of the church and let me out of here!
    Too many people have lied in the name of Christ
    For anyone to heed the call
    So many people have died in the name of Christ
    That I can't believe it all

    And now I'm standing on the grave of a soldier that died in 1799
    And the day he died it was a birthday
    And I noticed it was mine
    And my head didn't know just who I was
    And I went spinning back in time
    And I am high upon the altar
    High upon the altar, high

    I'm flying in Winchester cathedral
    It's hard enough to drink the wine
    The air inside just hangs in delusion
    But given time
    I'll be fine

    Fool For Your Loving
    Composer(s): David Coverdale;
    Bernie Marsden; Micky Moody
    Performer(s): Whitesnake;
    and various other artists



    I was born under a bad sign, left out in the cold
    I'm a lonely man who knows just what it means to lose control
    But I took all the heartache and turned it to shame
    Now I'm movin', movin' on and I ain't taking the blame

    (chorus:)
    Don't come running to me, I know I've done all I can
    A hard loving woman like you just makes a hard loving man
    So I can say it to you, babe: I'll be a fool for your loving no more
    A fool for your loving no more
    I'm so tired of trying, I always end up crying
    A fool for your loving no more, I'll be a fool for your loving no more

    I'm tired of hiding my feelings, you left me lonely too long
    I gave my heart and you tore it apart
    Oh, baby you done me wrong
    (chorus)

    The Final Cut
    Composer(s): Roger Waters
    First release by: Pink Floyd - 1983



    Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes
    I can barely define the shape of this moment in time
    And far from flying high in clear blue skies
    I'm spiraling down to the hole in the ground where I hide

    If you negotiate the minefield in the drive
    And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes
    And if you make it past the shotgun in the hall
    Dial the combination, open the priesthole
    And if I'm in I'll tell you what's behind the wall

    There's a kid who had a big hallucination
    Making love to girls in magazines
    He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith
    Could anybody love him
    Or is it just a crazy dream?

    And if I show you my dark side
    Will you still hold me tonight?
    And if I open my heart to you
    And show you my weak side
    What would you do?
    Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?
    Would you take the children away
    And leave me alone?
    And smile in reassurance
    As you whisper down the phone?
    Would you send me packing?
    Or would you take me home?

    Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings
    Thought I oughta tear the curtain down
    I held the blade in trembling hands
    Prepared to make it but just then the phone rang
    I never had the nerve to make the final cut

    "Hello? Listen, I think I've got it
    Okay, listen it's a HaHa!"

    Catfish John Composer(s): Bob McDill - Allen Reynolds First release by: Johnny Russell - 1972 Covered by multiple other artists



    Momma said don't go near that river
    Don't be hangin' 'round old Catfish John
    But come the morning I'd always be there
    Walking in his footsteps in that sweet delta dawn

    Born a slave in the town of Vicksburg
    Traded for a chestnut mare
    But he never spoke in anger
    Though his load was hard to bear

    Momma said don't go near that river
    Don't be hangin' 'round old Catfish John
    But come the morning I'd always be there
    Walking in his footsteps in that sweet delta dawn

    Let me dream of another morning
    Of a time so long ago
    Where the sweet magnolias blossom
    And cotton fields were white as snow

    Momma said don't go near that river
    Don't be hangin' 'round old Catfish John
    But come the morning I'd always be there
    Walking in his footsteps in that sweet delta dawn
