    There's Never Been A Night
    Composer(s): Schuster
    Performer(s): Shirley Bassey



    (there's never been a night, never been a night, like this)

    There's never been a night (never been a night), a night like this
    (a night like this)
    There's never been a boy (never been a boy), I'd rather kiss
    (oh, what a kiss)

    There's never been a moon so big and bright
    There's never been a love that felt so right
    There's never been a night (what a night), a night like this
    (a night like this)

    There's never been a thrill, just like your touch
    (touch me pretty baby)
    There's never been a touch, that thrilled so much
    (so much, so much, so much)

    There's never been a heart that beats so fast
    There's never been a love I care would last
    There's never been a night (what a night), a night like this
    (a night like this)

    Now that I've found you
    Please don't ever ever ever let me go
    Now that I've found you
    I want you, I want you to know

    There's not anoher boy (another boy), I'll ever kiss
    (kiss me baby, baby)
    There's not another boy (oh boy), I'll ever miss
    (miss me baby, baby)

    So hold me good and tight, don't go away
    And every single night you'll here me say
    There's never been a night (never been a night), a night like this
    (oh, what a night)

    (oh, what a good night, don't go away)
    (and ever single night you'll here me say)

    There's never been a night (never been a night), a night like this
    (oh, what a night)
    There's never been a night (never been a night), a night like this
    (oh, what a night)
    There's never been a night (never been a night), a night like this
    (oh, what a night)

    Cornet De Frites
    Composer(s): Francis Lemarque; Bob Astor
    Performer(s): Yves Montand



    Dans un cornet de papier
    Près du quai de la Rapée
    Un jour on s'était payé des frites
    Moi j'avais les mains graisseuses
    Mais toi tu restais gracieuse
    Et tu mangeais malicieus' tes frites
    Pour égayer ton sourire
    Des fleurs j'aurais pu t'offrir
    Mais t'as préféré sans rire des frites
    Voilà comment les amoureux
    Font leur bonheur avec un peu
    Un peu d'soleil et pour eux deux
    Un cornet d'frites

    Avec les beaux jours qui reviennent
    Le long des quais on se promèn'
    En grignotant le long d'la Seine
    Un cornet d'frites
    Quand on a tout mangé
    On r'tourn' en acheter
    Puis on rentre s'aimer
    Bien vite
    Voilà comment les amoureux
    Font leur bonheur avec un peu
    Un peu d'soleil et pour eux deux
    Un cornet d'frites

    J'pens' à tout ça tristement
    Tout seul en plein dans l'vent
    En fac' du marchand qui vend des frites
    Ça coût' vingt-cinq francs l'cornet
    J'ai pas l'premier sou en poche
    Et ce soir la vie est moche bien moche
    Mais moi je n'sais pas mendier
    Je n'sais pas non plus pleurer
    Tout c'que j'peux faire c'est rêver de frites
    Comme autrefois quand tous les deux
    Nous vivions des jours merveilleux.

    Un peu d'soleil et pour nous deux
    Un cornet d'frites
    Et quand les beaux jours revenaient
    Bras d'ssus bras d'ssous on s'en allait
    Manger à deux le long des quais
    Un cornet d'frites
    Et puis on s'est quitté
    Et tout fut effacé
    L'bonheur était passé
    Trop vite
    Je me souviens des jours heureux
    Au temps où nous allions tous deux
    Grignoter sur les bords d'la Seine
    Un cornet d'frites

    Runnin' Wild
    Composer(s): Joe Grey;
    Leo Wood; Arthur Harrington-Gibbs
    Performer(s): Duke Ellington;
    and various other artists



    My gal and I
    We had a fight
    And I`m all by myself
    I guess she thinks
    Now that she`s gone
    I`ll lay right on the shelf
    I`m gonna show her she`s all wrong
    No lonesome stuff for mine
    I won`t sit home
    All alone
    She`ll soon find out that I`m:

    [chorus]:
    Runnin` wild
    Lost control
    Runnin` wild
    Mighty bold
    Feelin` gay
    Reckless too
    Care free mind
    All the time
    Never blue
    Always goin`
    Don`t know where
    Always showin`
    I don`t care
    Don`t love nobody
    It`s not worthwhile
    All alone
    Runnin` wild

    When I first met that gal of mine
    It seemed just like a dream
    But when she thought she had me right
    She started actin` mean
    Like Mary led her little lamb
    She led me all the time
    Until the worm had to turn
    That`s the reason I`m

    Runnin` wild
    Lost control
    Runnin` wild
    Mighty bold
    Feelin` gay
    Reckless too
    Care free mind
    All the time
    Never blue
    Always goin`
    Don`t know where
    Always showin`
    I don`t care
    Don`t love nobody
    It`s not worthwhile
    All alone
    Runnin` wild

    No gal will ever make a fool of me
    No gal!
    I mean just what I say
    I ain`t the simpleton I used to be
    Wonder how I got that way
    Once I was full of sentiment, it`s true
    But now I got a cruel heart
    With all that other foolishness I`m through
    Gonna play the villain part

    Runnin` wild
    Lost control
    Runnin` wild
    Mighty bold
    Feelin` gay
    Reckless too
    Care free mind
    All the time
    Never blue
    Always goin`
    Don`t know where
    Always showin`
    I don`t care
    Don`t love nobody
    It`s not worthwhile
    All alone
    Runnin` wild

    There's Honey On The Moon Tonight
    Composer(s): Haven Gillespie - Mack Davis - J. Fred Coots
    Performer(s): Fats Waller
    and multiple other artists



    There's honey on the moon tonight
    It's a sin if we waste it
    Come along and let's taste it
    Had it ordered for you

    There's honey on the moon tonight
    Tho' a little off season
    It is there for a reason
    For a dream to come true
    We don't need a boat, a motor car or a bus
    Just any old bench in any old park
    Is made to order for us

    There's honey on the moon tonight
    And I'm out to enjoy it
    What a night to enjoy it
    With a honey like you

    Corner Of The Sky Composer(s): Stephen Schwartz First release by: The Jackson 5 - 1972 Covered by multiple other artists



    Everything has its season
    Everything has its time
    Show me a reason and I'll soon show you a rhyme
    Cats fit on the window sill
    Children fit in the snow
    Why do I feel I don't fit in anywhere I go?
    Rivers belong where they can ramble
    Eagles belong where they can fly
    I've got to be where my spirit can run free
    Got to find my corner of the sky

    Every man has his daydreams
    Every man has his goals
    People like the way dreams have of sticking to the soul
    Thunderclouds have their lightening
    Nightingales have their song
    And don't you see I want my life to be something more than long?

    So many men seem destined to settle for something small
    but I won't rest until I know I'll have it all
    So don't ask where I'm going, but listen when I'm gone
    And far away you'll hear me singing softly to the dawn

    Runnin' 'Round This World
    Composer(s): Paul Kantner; Marty Balin
    Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane



    We've been runnin' 'round this world too much, girl
    Tryin' not to see but now we're free of them
    I understand what I understood before
    But lovin' you has made me understand much more

    Is it the music in your heart I love so much?
    Is it the rainbows of the smile I love to touch?
    There are red flowers in each kiss upon your lips
    The nights I spend with you have been fantastic trips

    Well I've seen you in a thousand dreams many, many days
    Without your love around, I'm gonna lose my way and you'll lose yours
    You know what's happening you can't sleep or think now
    Shadows, they are liftin' off of you
    We can walk their love where we want to

    Well I've seen you in a thousand dreams many, many days
    Without your love around
    I'm gonna lose my way and you'll lose yours
    You know what's happening you can't sleep or think now
    Shadows, they are liftin' off of you
    We can walk their love where we want to

    Ah yes, there's good blues tonight
    There's good blues tonight
    You can't help but dance
    'Cause the music is really right

    Ah yes, there's good blues tonight
    There's groovy blues tonight
    A chance to romance
    When the dancin' is liltin' light

    Each Chuck can cheek to cheek it with his chick
    No date that's late can rate the latest licks

    Ah yes, there's good blues tonight
    There's true blues tonight
    So hold your baby tight
    'Cause there's sure good blues tonight

    I'm a-tellin' you, Jack, great days are back
    Take the word of a bird with an ear
    Gather round the stand, listen to the band
    It's the blues you've been waitin' to hear

    Corned Beef And Cabbage
    Composer(s): Ralph Rainger - Leo Robin
    Performer(s): Helen Mack & Edward Everett Horton



    I'm simply wild about you
    I couldn't do without you
    Corned beef and cabbage, I love you

    You always set me raving
    You satisfy that craving
    Corned beef and cabbage, I love you

    If I could have you every day
    My life would have more spice
    And even if I'd have to pay
    I'd gladly pay the price
    I see you and surrender
    Oh, won't you please be tender
    Corned beef and cabbage, I love you!

    I'm always happy when you
    Are featured on the menu
    Corned beef and cabbage, I love you

    Although you're so plebeian
    You're fit for any queen
    Corned beef and cabbage, I love you

    You fill me with a strange desire
    That haunts me all night through
    You seem to set my heart on fire
    You give me heartburn, too
    Why don't you try a load
    O' bicarbonate of soda
    Corned beef and cabbage, I love you!

    Runnin' Me Crazy
    Composer(s): Blind Willie McTell
    Performer(s): Blind Willie McTell



    Said I'm almost crazy, and I'm all here by myself
    Said I'm almost crazy, I'm all here by myself
    Ah these wimmen 'bout to run me crazy
    Lord she's got someone else

    Lord she's 'bout to run me crazy, these reckless wimmen worryin' me
    Said she's 'bout to run me crazy, reckless wimmen worryin' me
    She don't have to treat me so bad, 'cause she lives in Tennessee

    Lord you'll either run me crazy woman, or either make me lose my mind
    Say you'll either run me crazy, or make me lose my mind
    Cause you keep me worryin', troubled all the time

    Lord these wimmens will run you crazy, they'll drive your heart in pain
    Man wimmen will run you crazy, and drive your heart in pain
    They'll spend all your money, turn around and run you insane

    (Ah play it... Ah your woman sure did treat you bad boy...)

    Well she spent all my money, and then she drove me outdoors
    Lord she spent all my money, turn around and drove me outdoors
    And I was almost crazy cause I had nowhere to go

    If you get a reckless woman, man don't never let her break your rules
    You run down on a reckless woman, man don't never let her break your rules
    And when you know anything you'll be almost crazy with the blues

    There's Gold In The Mountains
    Composer(s): Bill Giant - Bernie Baum - Florence Kaye
    Performer(s): Elvis Presley



    There are lots of girls in the mountains
    And they're worth their weight in gold
    When they're in my arms with their lovin' charms
    A treasure chest I hold

    Well, there's gold in the mountains, love in the hills
    I don't need no city women with diamonds and frills
    There's gold in the mountains and oh, what scenery
    The prettiest girls I ever did see

    There's such beauty there in the mountains
    You can feel your knees growin' weak
    Every single boy feels the height of joy
    When he climbs that mountain peak

    Well, there's gold in the mountains, love in the hills
    I don't need no city women with diamonds and frills
    There's gold in the mountains and oh, what scenery
    The prettiest girls I ever did see

    I said there's gold in the mountains, love in the hills
    I don't need no city women with diamonds and frills
    There's gold in the mountains and oh, what scenery
    The prettiest girls I ever did see, I ever did see, I ever did see

    Corne D'aurochs
    Composer(s): Georges Brassens
    Performer(s): Georges Brassens



    Il avait nom corne d'Aurochs, au gué, au gué
    Tout l'mond' peut pas s'app'ler Durand, au gué, au gué

    En le regardant avec un œil de poète
    On aurait pu croire à son frontal de prophète
    Qu'il avait les grand's eaux de Versailles dans la tête
    Corne d'Aurochs

    Mais que le bon dieu lui pardonne, au gué, au gué
    C'étaient celles du robinet, au gué, au gué

    On aurait pu croire en l'voyant penché sur l'onde
    Qu'il se plongeait dans des méditations profondes
    Sur l'aspect fugitif des choses de se monde
    Corne d'Aurochs

    C'étaient hélas pour s'assurer, au gué, au gué
    Qu' le vent n'l'avait pas décoiffé, au gué, au gué

    Il proclamait à son de trompe à tous les carrefours
    "Il n'y a qu'les imbéciles qui sachent bien faire l'amour
    La virtuosité c'est une affaire de balourds!"
    Corne d'Aurochs

    Il potassait à la chandelle, au gué, au gué
    Des traités de maintien sexuel, au gué, au gué
    Et sur les femm's nues des musées, au gué, au gué
    Faisait l'brouillon de ses baisers, au gué, au gué

    Et bientôt petit à petit, au gué, au gué
    On a tout su, tout su de lui, au gué, au gué

    On a su qu'il était enfant de la Patrie
    Qu'il était incapable de risquer sa vie
    Pour cueillir un myosotis à une fille
    Corne d'Aurochs

    Qu'il avait un p'tit cousin, au gué, au gué
    Haut placé chez les argousins, au gué, au gué
    Et que les jours de pénurie, au gué, au gué
    Il prenait ses repas chez lui, au gué, au gué

    C'est même en revenant d'chez cet antipathique
    Qu'il tomba victime d'une indigestion critique
    Et refusa l'secours de la thérapeutique
    Corne d'Aurochs

    Parce que c'était un All'mand, au gué, au gué
    Qu'on devait le médicament, au gué, au gué

    Il rendit comme il put son âme machinale
    Et sa vie n'ayant pas été originale
    L'Etat lui fit des funérailles nationales
    Corne d'Aurochs

    Alors sa veuve en gémissant, au gué, au gué
    Coucha avec son remplaçant, au gué, au gué

    Runnin' From The Devil
    Composer(s): Terry Turrell; Danny O'Keefe
    Performer(s): Danny O'Keefe



    I feel like Jack the Rabbit
    In the shadow of the hawk
    Got to keep on runnin'
    Can't afford to walk
    If I stand here like a statue
    Waitin' all alone
    You'll chisel my heart
    Like it's made of stone

    So I've got to keep on runnin'
    Time to stand is through
    Wish I knew who I'm runnin' from
    And who
    I'm runnin' to
    Wish I knew

    Sometimes life is heaven
    Sometimes it's hell
    Sometimes it's too damned
    Confusin' to tell
    I ain't got the answer
    My life's like a riddle
    And I seem to be stuck
    Somewhere in the middle

    So I've got to keep on runnin'
    Time to stand is through
    Wish I knew who I'm runnin' from
    Or who
    I'm runnin' to

    On one end is the devil
    On the other end is you
    Wish I knew who I'm runnin' from
    Or who
    I'm runnin' to
    Wish I knew
    Wish I knew

    I can't afford to lose this race
    When there's so much at stake
    I'm runnin' faster than my tears
    With every step I take

    This road I'm runnin'
    Bound to take its toll
    I'll pay with my heart
    Or I'll pay with my soul

    But I've got to keep on runnin'
    Time to stand is through
    Wish I knew who I'm runnin' from
    Or who
    I'm runnin' to

    On one end is the devil
    On the other end is you
    Wish I knew who I'm runnin' from
    Or who
    I'm runnin' to
    I wish I knew
    Wish I knew

    You played hooky from school
    And you can't go out to play, yeah
    Mama said for the rest of the week
    In your room you gotta stay, yeah
    Now you feel like
    The whole world's pickin on you
    But deep down inside you know it ain't true
    You've been punished cause your mother
    Wants to raise you the right way, yeah
    But you don't care
    Cause you already made up your mind
    You wanna run away, yeah
    You're on your way
    Run away child, running wild
    Run away child, running wild
    Better come back home
    Better come back home
    Where you belong
    Where you belone

    Roaming through the city
    Going nowhere fast
    You're on your own at last
    Hey it's getting late, where will you sleep
    Gettin kind-a hungry
    You forgot to bring something to eat
    Oh lost with no money, you start to cry
    But remember you left home
    Wanting to be grown
    So dry your weepin eyes
    Siren screamin down, neon light is flickin
    You want your mama
    Ah there's nothing for you
    You're frightened and confused
    I want my mama
    But she's much too far away
    She can't hear a word you say
    You heard some frightening news on the radio
    About little boys running away from home
    And their parents don't see them no more
    You wanna hitch a ride and go home
    But your mama told you never trust a stranger
    And you don't know which way to go

    Streets are dark and deserted
    Not a sound nor sign of life
    How you long to hear your mother's voice
    Cause you're lost and alone
    But remember you make the choice
    Run away child, running wild
    Better go back home where you belong
    Run away child, running wild
    Better go back home where you belong
    You're lost in this great big city
    (Go back home where you belong)
    Not one familiar face
    Ain't it a pity
    (Go back home where you belong)
    Oh run away child, running wild
    You better go back home where you belong
    Mama, mama please come and see about me
    But she's much too far away
    She can't hear a word you say
    I want my mama
    You're frightened and confused
    Which way will you choose

    There's An Island
    Composer(s): Meshel - Welch - Gilutin
    Performer(s): Engelbert Humperdinck



    In the pictures that I saw
    It looked so pretty
    But that's before I lived here
    In the city
    But there's money to be made
    And girl, that's why we stayed
    Now it won't be long
    Until we're on our way

    There's an island in the sun
    Shines its light on every one
    And the sky's painted blue
    Instead of gray
    There's an island where I know
    We can find the room to grow
    And that island's where I'm taking you some day

    Girl, we have a dream
    Let's not forsake it
    Help me find the strength
    And we can make it
    To where the water's sweet as wine
    And it's sunny all the time
    And it won't be long until
    It's yours and mine

    There's an island in the sun
    Shines its light on every one
    And the sky's painted blue
    Instead of gray
    There's an island where I know
    We can find the room to grow
    And that island's where I'm taking you some day

    We will be there, you and me there

    On an island in the sun
    Shines its light on every one
    And the sky's painted blue
    Instead of gray
    There's an island where I know
    We can find the room to grow
    And that island's where I'm taking you some day

    On an island in the sun
    Shines its light on every one
    And the sky's painted blue
    Instead of gray
    There's an island where I know
    We can find the room to grow
    And that island's where I'm taking you some day

    Cornbread, 'Lasses And Sassafras Tea (Bird In The Cage)
    Composer(s): Lloyd George; Roland Sullivan
    Performer(s): Pee Wee King
    and multiple other artists



    Come here girls and listen to my noise
    Don't you marry an Arkansas boy
    Marry a feller from Tennessee, eat
    Cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea
    Cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea

    Traveled all over this whole wide world
    Eat a lotta cookin' from a lotta pretty girls
    But there's none like Tennessee
    With cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea
    Cornbread, 'lasses and sassafras tea

    Grandpa Snazzy lives on the hill
    He ain't never died and I guess he never will
    The neighbors all around say he's ninety three
    The old man's happy as he can be eatin'
    Cornbread, 'lasses and sassafras tea
    Cornbread, 'lasses and sassafras tea

    Old Uncle Jim on his dyin' bed
    He called 'em all around and then he said
    My last request just let it be
    Cornbread, 'lasses and sassafras tea
    Cornbread, 'lasses and sassafras tea

    Come here girls and listen to my noise
    Don't you marry an Arkansas boy
    Marry a feller from Tennessee eat
    Cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea
    Cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea

    Cornbread, and 'lasses and sassafras tea

    Runnin' Down A Dream
    Composer(s): Mike Campbell; Jeff Lynne; Tom Petty
    Performer(s): Tom Petty



    It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
    I had the radio on, I was drivin'
    Trees flew by, me and Del were singin' little Runaway
    I was flyin'

    Chorus:
    Yeah runnin' down a dream
    That never would come to me
    Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
    Runnin' down a dream

    I felt so good like anything was possible
    Hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
    The last three days the rain was un-stoppable
    It was always cold, no sunshine

    Chorus

    I rolled on; the sky grew dark
    I put the pedal down to make some time
    There's something good waiting down this road
    I'm pickin' up whatever is mine

    Chorus

    Chorus

    Runaway Boys
    Composer(s): Slim Jim Phantom; Brian Setzer
    Performer(s): Stray Cats;
    Brian Setzer; The Top Cats



    Get kicked out for coming home at dawn
    Mom and Dad cursed the day you were born
    Throw your clothes into a duffle bag
    shoutin' as ya slam the door home is a drag

    Who can I turn to and where can I stay?
    I heard a place is open all night and all day
    There's a place you can go where the cops don't know
    You can act real wild they don't treat you like a child

    Runaway boys

    Your hair's all greasy and you feel like a slob
    You're only fifteen and you can't get a job
    Go into the luncheonette and shoot a few games
    Losing all your quarters, man it's always the same

    Steal a couple of bucks to buy a new toy
    Slip into the alley with the

    Runaway boys

    Runnin' faster, faster all the time
    You're under age and God knows, that's a crime!

    Runaway boys

    There's Always Tomorrow
    Performer(s): Jack Buchanan



    There’s always tomorrow to bring us a smile
    Maybe we should borrow that thought for a while
    For then we’ll both remember that life is but a game
    We’ll fan the dying ember and coax it into flame

    Tomorrow we’ll borrow a thought from a song
    To capture the rapture of days that are gone
    For when we’re reunited we’ll have a bit to say
    Tomorrow was yesterday

    Tomorrow was yesterday

    Runnin' Back To Saskatoon
    Composer(s): Burton Cummings; Kurt Winter
    Performer(s): The Guess Who



    {Spoken}
    There's a province up in Canada that's right next door to ours
    It's called Saskatchewan
    And, uh, in that province there's a small town
    uh, where nothing much ever happens, called Saskatoon
    This is a tune about that town
    This is called "Runnin' Back To Saskatoon"

    I been hangin' around gas stations
    I been learnin' 'bout tires
    I been talkin' to grease monkeys
    I been workin' on cars

    Moose Jaw saw a few, Moosomin too
    Runnin' back to Saskatoon
    Red Deer, Terrace and a Medicine Hat
    Sing another prairie tune
    Sing another prairie tune

    I been hangin' around libraries
    I been learnin' 'bout books
    I been talkin' to playwriters
    I been workin' on words, phrases

    Moose Jaw saw a few, Moosomin too
    Runnin' back to Saskatoon
    Red Deer, Terrace and a Medicine Hat
    Sing another prairie tune
    Sing another prairie tune

    I been hangin' around hospitals
    I been learnin' 'bout dyin'
    I been talkin' to heart doctors
    I been workin' on disease

    Moose Jaw saw a few, Moosomin too
    Runnin' back to Saskatoon
    Red Deer, Terrace and a Medicine Hat
    Sing another prairie tune
    Sing another prairie tune

    This tune is home grown
    Don't come from Hong Kong
    This tune is home grown
    Don't come from Hong Kong

    I been hangin' around grain elevators
    I been learnin' 'bout food
    I been talkin' to soil farmers
    I been workin' on land

    Moose Jaw saw a few, Moosomin too
    Runnin' back to Saskatoon
    Red Deer, Terrace and a Medicine Hat
    Sing another prairie tune
    Sing another prairie tune

    I been hangin' around camera stores
    I been learnin' 'bout sight
    I been talkin' to film makers
    I been workin' on eyes

    Moose Jaw saw a few, Moosomin too
    Runnin' back to Saskatoon
    Red Deer, Terrace and a Medicine Hat
    Sing another prairie tune
    Sing another prairie tune

    This tune is home grown
    Don't come from Hong Kong
    This tune is home grown
    Don't come from Hong Kong
