Sittin' in a restaurant She walked by I seemed to recall That certain look in your eye I said, "Who's that?" You said, with a smile "Aah, it's nobody" Aah, nobody
Maybe that explains the last two weeks You called me up, dead on your feet Working late again I asked who with You said, "Nobody" Aah, nobody
Well your nobody called today She hung up when I asked her name Well, I wonder Does she think she's being clever (Clever, ooh, ooh) You say nobody's after you The fact is what you say is true But I can love you like nobody can Even better
Late last night we went for a drive You were miles away I asked, "Who's on your mind?" You said, "Nobody, (nobody) Why do you ask" Oh, her again I could've told you that
We came back home Got ready for bed I said to myself I've got one shot left Your still mine and I won't stand in line Behind nobody Nobody
Well, your nobody called today She hung up when I asked her name Well, I wonder does she think she's being clever (Clever, ohh, ohh) You say nobody's after you The fact is what you say is true But I can love you like nobody can Even better
Well, your nobody called today She hung up when I asked her name Well, I wonder does she think she's being clever (Clever, ohh, ohh) You say nobody's after you The fact is what you say is true But I can love you like nobody can Even better...

When life seems full of clouds and rain And I am full of nothin' and pain Who soothes my thumping, bumping brain, uummm? Nobody!
When winter comes with snow and sleet And me with hunger and cold feet Who says, "Here's twenty-five cents, go ahead and get somethin' to eat, go on why doncha"? Nobody!
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody I ain't never done nothin' to nobody, no time So until I get somethin' from somebody sometime I'll never do nothin' for nobody, no time
When I was in that railroad wreck And thought I'd cashed in my last check Who took the engine off my neck? Nobody!
One time when things was lookin' bright I started to whittle on a stick one night Who cried out, "Stop now, that's dynamite"? Not a soul!
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody I ain't never done nothin' to nobody, no time So until I get something from somebody, sometime I'll never do nothin' for nobody, no time
----------
As performed by Jimmy Dean:
When life seems full of clouds and rain And I am filled with nought but pain Who soothes my thumpin' bumpin' brain........ Nobody!
When winter comes with snow and sleet And me with hunger and cold feet Who says, "Here's two bits, go eat"........ Nobody!
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody And I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time And until I get somethin' from somebody sometime I don't intend to do nothin' for nobody, no time
When I'm tryin' hard and schemin' a plan To do the very best I can Who says, "Look at that handsome man"........ Nobody!
Well all day long things go amiss And I go home to find some bliss Who's waitin' there with a lovin' kiss........ Nobody!
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody And I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time And until I get somethin' from somebody sometime I don't intend to do nothin' for nobody, no time

No puede ser cobarde el que perdona a un amor que es malo y traicionero El amor es dolor cuando es sincero vergüenza no es llorar, vergüenza no es llorar porque te quiero
Toda mujer bonita será traidora porque al hombre valiente lo hace cobarde
Por su traición el alma quise arrancarle pero al tenerla cerca volví a besarle porque también bonita, porque también bonita era mi madre
Por su traición el alma quise arrancarle pero al tenerla cerca volví a besarle porque también bonita, porque también bonita era mi madre

They were a sinning That's exactly what I said And when God saw them sinning It hurt Him to his heart, it hurt Him so bad It made Him mad, it made Him so mad he was angry And when God got angry the sky turned dark And it was than that he told Noah to build the ark Who built the ark, Noah Who built the ark, Noah Who built the ark, Noah, Noah Noah built that ark Children stop to steel, listen to me God walked down by the Briny sea Beheld evil of the sinful men Declared that he would destroy the land Spoke to Noah Brother Noah stopped He said look a here Noah build me an ark Won't you build it big and strong Build it 300 cubic long, 30 high, about 50 wide I want it to stand my rain and tide On this day I make my mark In a 100 years I want that ark Knocking thru with this evil land Not a living thing is gonna stand Except the things that I tell to you That I gonna need , when the world is new I've been east and I've been west I decided to put this world at rest I've been up and I've been down Nothing but evil all around I've seen brother turn against brother Up this high and it'll go no further Women weep and children mourn Sorry the day that men was born Sinful people one by one Sorry the day my wrath begun Sorry the day my wrath begun Sorry the day my wrath begun Sorry the day my wrath begun 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain And all this land is my land Not a living thing is gonna stand 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain
Who built the ark? Noah. Yeah Who built the ark? Noah. Yeah Who built the ark? Noah Noah Noah built the ark When after God told him what to do Then the work began cut and hew Ringing o´ the hammer was "judgment" Ringing o´ the saw "God said repent" 100 years he hammered and sawed Building the ark by the grace of God After the foundation was laid Hewed down the timber and the ark was made Called in the animals two by two There was the Ox, the Camel and the Kangaroo Hallowed in the monkey and the crocodile He even made the animals they couldn't smile Packed them in the ark so tight The Owl couldn't get no sleep at night Called in Japheth and Shem and Ham God began to flood the land Raised his hand to heaven on high And knocked that sun and the moon from the sky Shook the mountains and disturbed the sea Hitched his reins to his Chariot Wheel Stepped on land and stood out on shore Declared this time couldn't be no more 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause its gonna rain 'Cause its gonna rain 'Cause its gonna rain
Noah Composer(s): Joe Raposo Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
The world's a tiny blue-green ark Afloat in darkest space. And every creature lives his time And knows his special place And each of us is Noah
With a life all in our care To keep against the darkness That's flooding everywhere
We've got to walk with the lion Soar with the eagle Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace
The times have made us fearful And our fears have brought the tears The loneliness and darkness Have grown bitter with the years But a light is just beyond us and the children almost see A world that we've forgotten And the world they want to be
When we walk with the lion Soar with the eagle Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace
The ark is getting crowded now And each of us must know When everything is finished here There's nowhere else to go The beasts are here to bless us And the faith is in their eyes That we can find the garden And see that sweet dawn rise
And we can walk with the lion Soar with the eagle Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace
We've got to walk with the lion Soar with the eagle Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace

No, You're Not Broken Composer(s): Meridian Green; Gene Parsons Performer(s): Gene Parsons
You've got bets on every number The wheel is set to spin You still won't let the game get started You'll never lose but you'll never win No you're not broken no you're not broken You're only stumbling around No you're not broken no you're not broken You're only hurting and proud Climbing down mountains you made out of molehills Down to the chasm below Till you cop to the fact that you're hurting You'll never cry but you'll never know No you're not broken no you're not broken You're only stumbling around No you're not broken no you're not broken You're only hurting and proud Count dancing angels on the head of a pin Never asking why Answers before you, you cannot see You're blind with tears in your eyes No you're not broken no you're not broken You're only stumbling around No you're not broken no you're not broken You're only hurting and proud
No, Not Much Composer(s): Al Stillman; Robert Allen Performer(s): The Four Lads; and various other artists
I don't want my arms around you, no not much I don't bless the day I found you, no not much I don't need you like the stars don't need the sky I won't love you longer than the day I die
You don't please me when you squeeze me, no not much My heads the lightest from your very slightest touch Baby, if you ever go could I take it maybe so Ah but would I like it, no not much
Like a ten cent soda dosen't cost a dime I don't want you near me only all time
You don't thrill me when you hold me, no not much My brain gets hazy from your cool and crazy touch Baby if you ever go could I take it maybe so Oh but would I like it, no not much No not much
No, Non Mi Scorderò Mai English & French Titles: No, I Could Never Forget; Non, Je N'Ai Rien Oublié Composer(s): Calabrese; Charles Aznavour; Georges Garvarentz Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Non credevo più Di incontrarmi con te Ma la fatalità Predispone le cose E si rifà con te Dopo che ti ha deluso No, non mi scorderò mai Ti sorrido perché Sto accorgendomi che Se il tempo, quando può L'altra gente sfigura Non ha cambiato in te Che la pettinatura No, non mi scorderò mai Niente di te Sposarmi? Io? E con chi? Non diciamo eresie Amo la libertà E poi tra me e te Eran donne così Soltanto in parte mie Ma fermiamoci ad un bar E parlami di te Cosa fai? Come stau? Vivi sola... Perché? Sei divisa da lui... Ma come andò che andò male? Son sicuro che i tuoi Saran morti di bile No, non mi scorderò mai Che, non si paerché Il caso e niente più Ci mettesse di fronte E ti portasse a me Da un passato distante No, non mi scorderò mai Cosa dirti non so Il ricordo di noi Mi ha confuso le idee Fin dal primo minuto E io rivedo in te La guerra che ho perduto Non mi scorderò mai Niente di te L'amore era per me La mia unica arma Quando avevano i tuoi Ben altre velleità Contro cui grande o no Un amore disarma Et ti hanno data a chi Ti dava più di me Ti ho cercata, ma Tu, tu non uscivi mai Quante volte, non so Ti ho scritto ed aspettata Non hai risposto mai E vi ho rinunciato
No, non lo scorderò mai E' già tardi oramai Qui ci mandiamo via Ti accompagno se vuoi Mentre l'alba è in attesa Come al tempo remoto Dei baci sotto casa No, non lo scorderò mai Quel tempo era per noi Il tempo dell'amore Non temevamo mai Né inverno né autunno Era estate per noi Ogni giorno dell'anno No, non mi scorderò mai niente, niente di noi
Non sai quanto mi dà La tua sola presenza Non immagini più Il bene che mi fa Immergermi con te Nella mia adolescenza Risalire con te A tanto tempo fa Io vorrei... Se tu vuoi... Rivedermi con te... Non insisto... Però... Così... Se lo ritieni... Se ne hai voglia anche tu... Se non hai altri impegni... Se ti ricordi anche tu Come me, che non scorderò mai
No, I Could Never Forget French & Italian Titles: Non, Je N'Ai Rien Oublié; No, Non Mi Scorderò Mai Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Georges Garvarentz; Morrison Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
I never really thought, wed ever meet again But faith deals out the hands we must take what it has chosen When in an idle glance you appeared, I was frozen No, I could never forget
I look upon your face, I cant believe my eyes Passing times often cruel, it fades youth like a flower But you have never changed, where the years but an hour? No, I could never forget, never forget
Married, me? Heavens no, Im still single, but happy To be free, unattached and between you and me better that than unmatched, though at times I feel lonely But enough about me, lets drink to you and life How have you been all these years? Are you happy and well? No? I guess I could tell and your marriage its ended Do your parents regret? Thats not what they intended No, I could never forget
Who could have ever known, without a single word that wed come face to face? Thered not been any reason I thought all things must die, as a time or a season No, I could never forget
I dont know what to say, its like some crazy dream the way the past returns, all my memories unbroken Yes, I remember too every word that was spoken No, I could never forget, never forget
Youth, a foolish age, we thought love was our treasure But your father said no you would marry someone with a position and name youd receive lifes full measure And he said with a smile, Im sure you understand? So, with love in our eyes, we exchanged love-goodbyes But your father was shrewd all my unanswered letters forced me soon to conclude things had worked for the better No, I could never forget
The hour is getting late, this place is closing down Come, yes come Ill walk you home through the streets dark and empty like in our foolish days of kisses stolen nightly No, I could never forget
Each season was for us a season for our love and we were not afraid as autumn turned to winter As long as theres youth, it is springtime forever No, no I could never forget, never forget
Its strange, the warmth I feel in these moments together Weve recaptured the time in the midst of our youth when two hearts were in line and were light as a feather But we both know the truth : we must live for today So, alas, if I may, if youd like me to stay? If this time we can share what the past was concealing If youre lonely and care, if you have the same feeling If, youre remembering yet all the things I could never forget
No! No! A Thousand Times No! Composer(s): Al Sherman; Al Lewis; Abner Silver Performer(s): Annette Hanshaw
She was a child of the valley An innocent maiden was she He was a desperate Desmond Who owned all the town property He would pursue her through hills and through dells But she was wise to his game Each time he threatened "You'll wed me or else" These were the words she'd exclaim....
"No! No! A thousand times no! You cannot buy my caress! No! No! A thousand times no! I'd rather die than say yes"
Ah! but this poisonous villain He wouldn't leave her alone Said, "Either join me in wedlock Or I'll kick you out of your home" She knew her people so feeble and old Needed a roof o'er their heads Winter would soon bring the snow and the cold Yet she defied him and said....
"No! No! A thousand times no! You cannot buy my caress! No! No! A thousand times no! I'd rather die than say yes"
That night he crept up to her window And oh! how that villain could creep He stole her out of her boudoir And kidnapped her while fast asleep He tied the gal to the old railroad track The milk train was rushing down the hill She cried to him, "Though my future looks black You buzzard, my answer is still....
No! No! A thousand times no! You cannot buy my caress! No! No! A thousand times no! I'd rather die than say yes"
Now she loved the young village blacksmith A muscular young "he-man" was he He heard that his love was in danger And right to the rescue flew he He grabbed his darling in "thee" nick of time And yelled, "This is my future wife!" The villain sneered, "Blacksmith, that maiden is mine!" The hero cried, "Not on your life!"....
"No! No! A thousand times no! You cannot buy my caress! No! No! A thousand times no! I'd rather die than say yes"
Now this is the end of our story Her honor was left without stain The hero took her to the altar The villain was foiled once again The mortgage was paid and the handsome young swain Moved in with her folks right away Their life is contented though simple and plain And no more will she have to say....
"No! No! A thousand times no! You cannot buy my caress! No! No! A thousand times no! I'd rather die than say yes"
No Way Out Composer(s): Peter Wolf; Ina Wolf Performer(s): Jefferson Starship
No intentions Whatsoever I was gone for a night Nothing's forever The cruel daylight Brought me back to my senses (Back to my senses) Got caught in here Under false pretenses
No way out None whatever I made up the story Thought it was clever She didn't ask And I got no reply (Got no reply) But later that night I heard her cry
No way out She doesn't buy my story No way out She doesn't buy my story No way out She doesn't buy my story
No accusations Whatsoever But can she forget Nothing's forever Since yesterday She's a little bit colder (Little bit colder) Won't happen again What could I've told her
No way out She doesn't buy my story No way out She doesn't buy my story No way out She doesn't buy my story Doesn't buy my story
How can she tell the truth from the lies How does she know when to close her eyes She doesn't want to lose me So she only sees what she wants to see
No way out She doesn't buy my story No way out She doesn't buy my story No way out She doesn't buy my story No way out No way out No way out
No Vuelvas Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro Performer(s): Raphael
Si tu sigues como ayer, no vuelvas Si lo mismo vas a hacer, no vuelvas Si no puedes ya cambiar de manera de pensar Si tu sigues como ayer, no vuelvas No vuelvas, no vuelvas
Puedo, puedo, puedo pasar sin tu amor noche y dia Puedo, puedo, puedo seguir por la vida sin ti Quiero, quiero, quiero vivir libremente mi vida Antes, antes, antes que estar a tu lado y sufrir
Si no vas a perdonar, no vuelvas Si me tratas de engañar, no vuelvas Si no vas a comprender mi manera de querer Si no vas a perdonarme, no vuelvas No vuelvas, no vuelvas
Puedo, puedo, puedo pasar sin tu amor noche y dia Puedo, puedo, puedo seguir por la vida sin ti Quiero, quiero, quiero vivir libremente mi vida Antes, antes, antes que estar a tu lado y sufrir
Si me vas a molestar, no vuelvas Si me vas a criticar, no vuelvas Si no vas a consentir que yo mande sobre ti Si me vas a molestar, no vuelvas No vuelvas, no vuelvas No vuelvas, no vuelvas, no vuelvas
Cuando lejos te encuentres de mi Cuando quieras que este yo contigo No hallaras un recuerdo de mi Ni tendras mas amores conmigo Te lo juro que no volvere Aunque me haga pedazos la vida Si una vez con locura te ame Ya de mi alma estaras despedida
No volvere Te lo juro por Dios que me mira Te lo digo llorando de rabia No volvere No parare Hasta ver que mi llanto ha formado Un arroyo de olvido anegado Donde yo tu recuredo ahogare
Fuimos nubes que el viento aparto Fuimos piedras que siempre chocamos Gotas de aqua que el sol reseco Borracheras que no terminamos En el tren de la ausencia me voy Mi boleto no tiene regreso Y lo que tengas de mi te lo doy Pero no te devuelvo tus besos
No Violins Composer(s): Roger Taylor Performer(s): Queen
We were talkin' 'bout the old times We went walking, down the streets we used to run Remember when you were angry About every cause to be had We weren't all bad -- I'm not talkin' 'bout security complex I ain't talkin' 'bout some monochrome duplex I ain't talkin' bout some new kinda weird sex I'm just talkin' 'bout -- you and me The way we used to be -- hey I'm just talkin' 'bout you and me brother I'm just talkin' 'bout -- another time and place We were hungry We were mad We were angry We were glad We were really Jack the lad We weren't all bad We went down We cruised around We went down, down, down in the violence We went around We went around and round and round We didn't hear no violins Where's the madness Where's the fire With the flames gettin' higher Where's the saints And the liars
No Turning Back Composer(s): John Deacon Performer(s): Queen
No time to fuss, no time to fret No time to think, no time to worry Waiting is for dreamers, give me time to catch my breath Seeing is believing, give me time to take a rest Cast alone with you You know I've got to go quite soon There'll be no time for love to go cold on us I'm a restless kind of guy There's no turning back now Gotta live before I die There's no turning back now With every move, with every break Gotta give my best and soon discover Standing on the inside, there's a time to hesitate Looking to the future, you can't leave it to the airs of fate Visions I have seen (visions I have seen) My dreams I wanna share with you (share with you) But my freedom now (is all I ask of you) lord I ask of you I'm a restless kind of guy There's no turning back now Gotta live before I die There's no turning back now (oooh oooh oooh) I'm a restless kind of guy There's no turning back now Gotta live before I die There's no turning back now I'm a restless kind of guy There's no turning back now (oooh oooh oooh) Gotta live before I die There's no turning back now I'm a restless kind of guy (no turning no turning no turning back) I'm turning back (restless kind of guy) oooh oooh oooh
No Time Composer(s): Burton Cummings; Randy Bachman Performer(s): The Guess Who
(No time left for you) (No time left for you) On my way to better things I found myself some wings (No time left for you) (No time left for you...) Distant roads are calling me
No time for a summer friend No time for the love you send Seasons change and so did I You need not wonder why You need not wonder why There's no time left for you No time left for you
No time for a gentle rain No time for my watch and chain No time for revolving doors No time for the killing floor No time for the killing floor There's no time left for you No time left for you
No time no time no time no time I got got got got no time I got got got got no time
No Time Composer(s): Ulveus Performer(s): Hootenanny Singers
You wake up at the break of day And what do you see People rushing all around Unconsciously They pour into the subways In never ending queues To get to their employment No time to lose
No time They've got no time to call their own Can't stop to wonder if the day is sunny 'Cause time to them means money No time They've got no time to call their own I wonder when they'll start believing This life was meant for living
It's the same the whole world over now Money is king It forces honest people To do strange things Like slaving in a factory Or sweating down a mine There's not a thing I wouldn't do To make a dime
No time They've got no time to call their own So wrapped up in their fight for hidden treasure They don't have time for pleasure No time They've got no time to call their own I wonder when they'll start believing This life was meant for living
No time They've got no time to call their own I wonder when they'll start believing This life was meant for living
No Tienes Quién Te Mire Composer(s): Luis Gómez Escolar; Julio Seijas Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Mujer, te he visto esta mañana por mi ventana y te fui a buscar Mujer, y al cruzarme contigo he deseado poderte amar El viento alzó tu falda, y removió tu pelo al pasar pero al querer hablarte, tú te alejaste sin contestar No tienes quién te mire mujer, no hay nadie que te mire No tienes quién te mire, no hay nadie que te mire Y pasas orgullosa, pidiendo al aire que se retire tan mágica y bonita a la vez, no tienes quien te mire Mujer, tu cuerpo es tan hermoso que te he seguido sin yo querer Mujer, tu nombre es un misterio si alguien lo sabe yo no lo sé Y quise preguntarte, por puro amor saber tu verdad y tu dulce mirada, siguió callada sin contestar No tienes quién te mire mujer, no hay nadie que te mire No tienes quién te mire mujer, no hay nadie que te mire Y pasas orgullosa, pidiendo al aire que se retire tan mágica y bonita a la vez, no tienes quien te mire No tienes quién te mire mujer, no hay nadie que te mire No tienes quién te mire mujer, no hay nadie que te mire Y lo intenté de nuevo, pero tu paso siguió mi juego por fin dijiste adiós nada más, yo respondí te quiero
