    The Rain Song
    Composer(s): Robert Plant - Jimmy Page
    First release by: Led Zeppelin - 1973
    Covered by multiple other artists



    This is the springtime of my loving - the second season I am to know
    You are the sunlight in my growing - so little warmth I felt before
    It isn't hard to feel me glowing - I watched the fire that grew so low
    It is the summer of my smiles - flee from me Keepers of the Gloom
    Speak to me only with your eyes
    it is to you I give this tune
    It isn't hard to recognise - these things are clear to all from time to time

    Talk Talk - I felt the coldness of my winter
    I never thought it would ever go
    I cursed the gloom that set upon us
    but I know that I love you so
    but I know that I love you so

    These are the seasons of emotion
    And like the winds they rise and fall
    This is the wonder of devotion - I see the torch we all must hold
    This is the mystery of the quotient
    Upon us all a little rain must fall

    City By Night Composer(s): Bernie Baum - Bill Giant - Florence Kaye Performer(s): Elvis Presley



    When shadows beckon on dim-lit avenues
    Night people hear the call
    From hidden alleys to secret rendezvous
    They come out one and all

    The city by night, I'm wide awake
    It never sleeps, make no mistake

    Whatever sets off the spark
    A magic glow lights the dark
    And I'm intrigued by the sight
    Of the city by night

    Those crowded nightclubs, those picturesque cafes
    Are scenes no-one forgets
    And I'm enchanted as music softly plays
    By dancing silhouettes

    A city by night, I'm wide awake
    It never sleeps, make no mistake

    The evening's full of surprise
    It's magic opens my eyes
    And I'm intrigued by the sight
    Of a city by night

    Yeah!

    Gabino Barrera
    Composer(s): Victor Rafael Cordero
    Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez;
    and various other artists



    Gabino Barrera no entendía razones
    Andando en la borrachera
    Traía su pistola con seis cargadores
    Le daba gusto a cualquiera

    Usaba el bigote en cuadro abultado
    Su paño al cuello enredado
    Calzones de manta, chamarra de cuero
    Traía punteado el sombrero

    Sus pies campesinos usaban huaraches
    Y a veces a raís andaba
    Pero le gustaba pagar los mariachis
    La plata no le importaba

    Con una botella de caña en la mano
    Gritaba ¡viva Zapata!
    Porque era ranchero el indio suriano
    Un hijo de buena mata

    Era alto y bien dado muy ancho de espaldas
    Su rostro mal encachado
    Su negra mirada un aire le daba
    Al buitre de la montañá

    Gaino Barrera dejaba mujeres
    Con hijos por donde quiera

    Servants:
    Poor Professor Higgins!
    Poor Professor Higgins!
    Night and day
    He slaves away!
    Oh, poor Professor Higgins!
    All day long
    On his feet
    Up and down until he's numb
    Doesn't rest
    Doesn't eat
    Doesn't touch a crumb!

    Poor Professor Higgins!
    On he plods
    Against all odds
    Oh, poor Professor Higgins!

    On through midnight ev'ry night
    One a.m.
    Two a.m.
    Three...!
    Quit, Professor Higgins!
    Quit, Professor Higgins!
    Hear our plea
    Or payday we
    Will quit, Professor Higgins!

    Pounding pounding in our brain
    Ay not I
    O not Ow
    Don't say "Rine," say "Rain"...

    Le strade piene, la folla intorno a me
    mi parla e ride e nulla sa di te
    io vedo intorno a me chi passa e va
    ma so che la città
    vuota mi sembrerà se non ci sei tu
    c'e' chi ogni sera mi vuole accanto a sé
    ma non m'importa se i suoi baci mi darà
    io penso sempre a te, soltanto a te
    e so che la città vuota mi sembrerà se non torni tu
    come puoi tu vivere ancor solo senza me
    non senti tu che non finì il nostro amor
    le strade vuote deserte sempre più
    leggo il tuo nome ovunque intorno a me
    torna da me amor e non sarà più vuota la città
    ed io vivrò con te tutti i miei giorni
    tutti i mie giorni, tutti i miei giorni

    The Race Is On
    Composer(s): Don Rollins
    First release by: Jimmie Gray - 1963
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I feel tears wellin' up cold and deep inside
    Like my heart's sprung a big break
    And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful
    That I may never shake
    You might say that I was taking it hard
    Oh, she wrote me off with a call
    But don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow
    When I may break right down and bawl?

    Well, the race is on and here comes
    Pride up the backstretch
    Heartaches are going to the in-side
    My Tears are holding back
    They're tryin' not to fall
    My Heart's out of the running
    True Love's scratched for another's sake
    The race is on and it looks like Heartaches
    And the winner loses all

    One day I ventured in love, never once suspectin'
    What the final result would be
    How I lived in fear of waking up each morning
    And thinkin' that you're gone from me
    There's ache and pain in my heart
    For today was the one that I hated to face
    Somebody new came up to win her
    I came out in second place

    Well, the race is on and here comes
    Pride up the backstretch
    Heartaches are going to the in-side
    My Tears are holding back
    They're tryin' not to fall
    My Heart's out of the running
    True Love's scratched for another's sake
    The race is on and it looks like Heartaches
    And the winner loses all

    Well, the race is on and here comes
    Pride up the backstretch
    Heartaches are going to the in-side
    My Tears are holding back
    They're tryin' not to fall
    My Heart's out of the running
    True Love's scratched for another's sake
    The race is on and it looks like Heartaches
    And the winner loses all

    It's A Lonely Town (Lonely Without You) ((Italian Version: Città Vuota (Mina) - 1963)) Composer(s): Doc Pomus - Mort Shuman First release by: Gene McDaniels - 1963 Covered by multiple other artists



    The streets are crowded, people are everywhere
    The sounds of laughter and music fill the air
    Thousands of people walk and sing and talk along the avenue
    But it's a lonely town, lonely without you

    I go out dancing with someone new each night
    And it means nothing if she lets me hold her tight
    'Cause no one's warm embrace or lovely face can thrill me like you do
    But it's a lonely town, lonely without you

    Where can you be?
    All of our friends keep asking me
    Where have you gone?
    Without you love I can't go on
    I feel l ike crying each time I hear your name
    'Cause since you left me this town's just not the same

    So come back home and then we'll live again
    The happiness we knew
    'Cause it's a lonely town, lonely without you

    Lonely without you
    Lonely without you
    Lonely without you
    Lonely without you ...

    G.I. Jive
    Composer(s): Johnny Mercer
    Performer(s): Johnny Mercer;
    and various other artists



    This is the G.I. Jive
    Man alive
    It starts with the bugler blowin' reveille
    Over your bed when you arrive
    Jack, that's the G. I. Jive
    Roodley-toot
    Jump in your suit
    Make a salute
    Boot!

    After you wash and dress
    More or less
    You go get your breakfast
    In a beautiful little cafe they call The Mess
    Jack, when you convalesce
    Outta your seat
    Into the street
    Make with the feet
    Reet!

    If you're a P-V-T, your duty
    Is to salute to L-I-E-U-T
    But if you brush the L-I-E-U-T
    The M-P makes you K-P on the Q-T

    This is the G.I. Jive
    Man alive
    They give you a private tank
    That features a little device called fluid drive
    Jack, after you revive
    Chuck all your junk
    Back in the trunk
    Fall on your bunk
    Clunk!

    Soon you're countin' jeeps
    But before you count to five
    Seems you're right back diggin' that
    G.I. Jive

    Queen Of Tonga
    Composer(s): Jack Fishman
    Performer(s): Edmundo Ros



    In the Pacific islands of Tonga
    They make their people stronger
    Oh, it can rain or storm or squall
    But they don't feel nothing at all

    Oh, the Queen of Tonga
    Crossed the ocean from faraway
    The Queen of Tonga
    Came to Britain for Coronation Day

    When the historic day came a-dawning
    The Queen woke up that morning
    And put on all her finery
    For the crowning ceremony

    Oh, the Queen of Tonga
    Crossed the ocean from faraway
    The Queen of Tonga
    Came to Britain for Coronation Day

    And when the great procession departed
    This Queen so happy-hearted
    Said, let it rain and let it pour
    Bring an open carriage and four

    Oh, the Queen of Tonga
    Crossed the ocean from faraway
    The Queen of Tonga
    Came to Britain for Coronation Day

    And when the people saw her
    On that torrential morn
    She captured all before her
    Took everyone by storm

    Oh, the Queen of Tonga
    Crossed the ocean from faraway
    The Queen of Tonga
    Came to Britain for Coronation Day

    In every heart will always live longer
    That reigning Queen of Tonga
    And I would like to save the fare
    Just to see her once again there

    Oh, the Queen of Tonga
    Crossed the ocean from faraway
    The Queen of Tonga
    Came to Britain for Coronation
    Royal Celebration
    Coronation Day

    Citizen Of The Planet
    Composer(s): Paul Simon
    Performer(s): Simon & Garfunkel



    I am a citizen of the planet
    I was born here
    I’m going to die here
    Come what may
    I am entitled by my birth
    To the treasures of the earth
    No one must be denied these
    No one must be denied
    Easy dreams
    At the end of a chain-smokin’ day
    Easy dreams at the end of the day

    Who am I to believe
    That the future we perceive
    Lies in danger and the dangers increase
    Who are we to demand
    That the leaders of the land
    Hear the voices of reason and peace

    We are the citizens of the planet
    We were born here
    We’re going to die here
    Come what may
    We are entitled by our birth
    To the treasures of the earth
    No one must be denied these
    No one must be denied
    Easy dreams at the end of a chain-smokin’ day
    Easy dreams at the end of the day

    Who am I to deny
    What my eyes can clearly see
    And raise a child with a flame in his heart
    Who are we to believe
    That these thoughts are so naïve
    When we’ve all disagreed from the start

    We are the citizens of the planet
    We were born here
    We’re gong to die here
    Come what may
    We are entitled by our birth
    To the treasures of the earth
    No one must be denied these
    No one must be denied
    Easy dreams at the end of a chain-smokin’ day
    Easy dreams at the end of the day

    Gee, I got a G.I. haircut
    Gee, it's not a pretty haircut
    I am such an awful sad guy since I cut my hair
    Gee, I got a G.I. haircut
    And I wouldn't care but
    No more girls give me the glad eye
    With my head so bare.
    Army barbers sure are wizards
    Up and down they go with scissors
    Soon your hair is on the floor
    And "Boom" brother, there ain't no more
    When I told him how I want it
    Trimmed a bit with hair oil on it
    Nineteen yard birds held me there
    And Gee I got a G.I. haircut

    (Johnny got a haircut, haircut, haircut
    Johnny got a haircut just like mine)

    I dream of Johnny but his light brown hair
    Seems to be lying `neath an army barber's chair

    No more side burns, they're too fancy
    Nothin' quite so fancy pantsy
    Says his stuff is what it's called
    And "Boom" brother, they leave you bald
    I was sure it wouldn't happen
    But the barber caught me nappin'
    When I climbed into his chair
    And Gee, I got a G.I. haircut

    Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



    So you're losing tonight
    Nothing seems to go right
    You keep playing the wrong cards, don't you
    Someone's throwing the dice
    And you need some advice
    So you listen to me now, won't you
    You don't know what's at stake
    That your heart's gonna break
    If you don't watch yourself tonight
    The Queen of Hearts is back in town
    Still wears the crown
    She does not intend to abdicate
    She'll be playing it cool
    She'll make you feel like a fool
    And you will never know if she will play it straight
    The Queen of Hearts is back again
    And it's you she wants my friend
    You'll see how well she knows her game
    You're a loser from the very start
    Because she deals for your heart
    For as long as you know
    You've been running the show
    Always played at the winning table
    Now you know you should leave
    There's no ace up your sleeve
    But you feel that you are unable
    And you know what's at stake
    That your heart's gonna break
    If you don't watch yourself tonight
    The Queen of Hearts is back in town
    Still wears the crown
    She does not intend to abdicate
    She'll be playing it cool
    She'll make you feel like a fool
    And you will never know if she will play it straight
    The Queen of Hearts is back again
    And it's you she wants my friend
    You'll see how well she knows her game

    Citizen Kane Composer(s): Skip Battin - Kim Fowley Performer(s): The Byrds; The Flying Burrito Brothers



    Fat ugly fat man swam
    In a red tire made of stone
    A painted lady paddled next to him
    With two poodles on her lap
    Garbo quietly picked a flower
    While the chauffeur won his check again
    And Barrymore took a noon day nap
    And diamonds fell like rain
    Cisco Kid and a bald headed waitress
    Trapped 'neath a bed of brass
    The french cook served them chocolates
    And some cold cuts on the grass
    Louilla ripped her zebra pants
    In the polo lounge
    And Errol Flynn was not let in
    Cause he was coming down

    Up in Xanadu diamonds fell like rain
    Citizen Kane was king poor Citizen Kane

    Valentino suddenly appeared
    In his midnight blue tuxedo
    Had a falcon on his shoulder
    Eating chicken from his hands
    And Fatty Arbuckle waddled by
    On way to the bath house green
    Frankenstein ate the leading lady
    And licked the carcass clean

    Up in Xanadu diamonds fell like rain
    Citizen Kane was king poor Citizen Kane

    G.I. Blues
    From the film "G.I. Blues"
    Composer(s): Sid Tepper; Roy C. Bennett
    Performer(s): Elvis Presley; HellBillys



    They give us a room with a view
    of the beautiful Rhine

    They give us a room with a view of the beautiful Rhine
    Gimme a muddy old creek in Texas any old time

    I've got those hup, two, three, four occupation G.I. Blues
    From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes
    And if I don't go stateside soon I'm gonna blow my fuse

    We get hasenpfeffer and black pumpernickel for chow
    We get hasenpfeffer and black pumpernickel for chow
    I'd blow my next month's pay for a slice of Texas cow

    We'd like to be heroes, but all we do here is march
    We'd like to be heroes, but all we do here is march
    And they don't give the Purple Heart for a fallen arch

    I've got those hup, two, three, four occupation G.I. Blues
    From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes
    And if I don't go stateside soon I'm gonna blow my fuse

    The frauleins are pretty as flowers, but we can't make a pass
    The frauleins are pretty as flowers, but we can't make a pass
    'Cause there's always a sign saying: "Keepen sie off the grass"

    I've got those hup, two, three, four occupation G.I. Blues
    From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes
    And if I don't go stateside soon I'm gonna blow my fuse

    Occupation G.I. Blues
    At Ease!

    The Queen Of 1964
    Composer(s): Neil Sedaka - Howard Greenfield
    Performer(s): Neil Sedaka



    Anyone who's played on a record date
    Will remember Stage-Door-Jenny
    Well, I saw her last night and man, she looked
    Like she wasn't gettin' any
    (Awwwwwwwww!)
    Rock and roll kinda took its toll
    When she shed her inhibitions
    Too many scenes in limousines
    And dressing room intermissions

    She was the queen of 1964
    But the truth of the matter is
    Nobody wants her anymore
    There was a time she could've shown you how
    But nobody wants an overage groupie now

    When it came to a superstar
    Jenny was a bragger
    She spread it all around to everyone in town
    That she once had Mick Jagger
    (Ooooooooooh!)
    There's no doubt when the truth comes out
    True love will always conquer
    She didn't get Mick but she got a kick
    And a black eye from Bianca

    She was the queen of 1964
    What a pity she became a shadow of the girl
    She was before
    She passed her prime, it seems a shame somehow
    But nobody wants an overage groupie now

    I'm afraid that the Morning Trade
    Had a sad obiturary
    There'll be no more Jenny at the door
    They took her to the cemetary
    (Awwwwwwwwwww!)
    Just an autograph book and a stereo
    There was no one she was close ta
    She was found with her arms around
    An Elvis Presley poster

    She was the queen of 1964
    Tonight there'll be a moment of silence
    At the Troubadour
    There was a time she could've shown you how
    But nobody wants an overage groupie now
    But nobody wants an overage groupie now

    Cities
    Composer(s): David Byrne
    Performer(s): Talking Heads



    Think of London, a small city
    It's dark, dark in the daytime
    The people sleep, sleep in the daytime
    If they want to, if they want to

    Chorus

    I'm checking them out
    I'm checking them out
    I got it figured out
    I got it figured out
    There's good points and bad points
    Find a city
    Find myself a city to live in

    There are a lot of rich people in Birmingham
    A lot of ghosts in a lot of houses
    Look over there!...
    A dry ice factory
    A good place to get some thinking done

    Down el Paso way things get pretty spread out
    People got no idea where in the world they are
    They go up north and come back south
    Still got no idea where in the world they are
    Did I forget to mention, to mention Memphis
    Home of Elvis and the ancient greeks
    Do I smell?
    I smell home cooking
    It's only the river, it's only the river

    (Give Me Back My) Name
    Composer(s): David Byrne
    Performer(s)): Talking Heads



    There's a word for it
    And words don't mean a thing
    There's name for it
    And names make all the difference in the world
    Some things can never be spoken
    Some things cannot be pronounced
    That word does not exist in any language
    It will never be uttered by a human mouth

    Let X make a statement
    Let breath pass through those cracked lips
    That man was my hero
    And now that word has been taken from us
    Some things can never be spoken
    Some things cannot be pronounced
    That word does not exist in any language
    It will never be uttered by a human mouth

    Give me back my name
    Give me back my name
    Something has been changed in my life
    Something has been changed in my life
    Something must be returned to us
    Something must me returned to us

    Composer(s): Dick Manning
    Performer(s): Perry Como & The Fontane Sisters



    Fontane Sisters:
    This is the story 'bout Perry who came home late one night!

    Perry Como:
    Must have been about a two or three am, something like that!

    FS:
    "Gotta get me some sleep", he yawned
    as he turned out the light!

    PC:
    Haaw! I guess I was too tired to do any reading!

    FS:
    Whether he dreamed what happened
    or if he really heard it, he wouldn't bet
    but he swears it sounded like two cats singin' a duet!

    PC:
    Come y'out, come y'out, come y'out my pretty kitten
    This is me, your boyfriend 'Tom'

    FS:
    N'yot N'yow!

    PC:
    Ah! come y'out, come y'out, come y'out my pretty kitten
    This is old Tom, 'Tom' the atom-bomb!

    FS:
    N'yot N'yow!
    We assure you we'd come y'out if only we knew how
    They tell us that you really are the cat's 'Meow'!

    PC:
    Ah! come y'out, come y'out, come y'out my pretty kitten now?

    FS:
    N'yot N'yow!

    PC:
    Oh!

    FS:
    Come y'out, come y'out, come y'out our croonin' kitten
    We will serenade the moon!

    PC:
    N'yot N'yow!

    FS:
    Come y'out, come y'out, come y'out our little kitten
    We will sing a little tune!

    PC:
    N'yot N'yow!
    When the folks got home tonight at twelve or thereabout
    They locked the door and they forgot to put me-yowt!

    FS:
    Oowah!

    PC:
    Alone from night to night you'll find me!

    FS:
    Come y'out, come y'out, come y'out our croonin' kitten
    Mee-yowh!

    PC:
    Heh heh
    OK, now!

    Citadel Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards First release by: The Rolling Stones - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists



    Men are armed shout who goes there
    We have journeyed far from here
    Armed with bibles make us swear

    Candy and taffy, hope we both are well
    Please come see me in the citadel

    Flags are flying, dollar bills
    Round the heights of concrete hills
    You can see the pinnacles

    Candy and taffy, hope we both are well
    Please come see me in the citadel

    In the streets are many walls
    Hear the peasants come and crawl
    You can hear their lovers call

    Candy and taffy, hope we both are well
    Please come see me in the citadel

    Screaming people fly so fast
    In thier shining mental cars
    Through the woods of steel and glass

    Candy and taffy, hope we both are well
    Please come see me in the citadel
