"Torero"
Tu pierdi 'o suonno
'ncoppa i giornaletti
e mammeta minaccia
e patitta s'arraggia
te fanno gira' a capa sti fumetti
guardando dint'o specchio
vuoi fare il toreador
come fanno a Santa Fe'
come fanno ad Hollywood
e cu sta scusa oi nun studi cchiu'
Ue Torero
te si piazzato
in capo stu sombrero
e dici ca si spagnolo
e nun e' o'vero
chee nacchere 'nta' sacca
va' a balla mescolando
bolero ca 'a samba e 'o cha cha cha
Torero cu sti basette
a sud Americano
cu nu sicarro e avano
a cammisella e picche'
Torero torero ole'
Te 'e fatto 'a giacchettella
corta corta
'e caziuncella stritti
e 'u ricciullinllo 'n fronte
te ride 'a gente arredu
e non t'emporta
ti senti Marlon Brando
che a spasso se ne va
per le vie Santa Fe'
per le strade di Hollywood
e 'annamurata tua nun te vo cchiu'
Ue Torero
te si piazzato
in capo stu sombrero
e dici ca si spagnolo
e nun e' o'vero
chee nacchere 'nta' sacca
va' a balla mescolando
bolero ca 'a samba e 'o cha cha cha
Torero cu sti basette

I Left My Hat In Haiti
Composer(s): Burton Lane; Alan Jay Lerner
Performer(s): Fred Astaire
and multiple other artists



I left my hat in Haiti
In some forgotten flat in Haiti
I couldn't tell you how I got there
I only know it was so hot there

She took my hat politely
And wound her arms around me tightly
But I remember nothing clearly
Except the flame when she came near me

Her eyes had the glow of surrender
And her touch, it was tender
And with someone as fiery as that
You forget about your hat

So if you go to Haiti
There is a girl I know in Haiti
If you can find her you'll adore 'er
Just look around 'til you've found
Someone who has a blue-gray fedora

Her eyes had the glow of surrender
And her touch, it was tender
And with someone as fiery as that
You forget about your hat

So if you go to Haiti
There is a girl I know in Haiti
If you can find her you'll adore 'er
Just look around 'til you've found
Someone who has a blue-gray fedora

June Is Bustin' Out All Over
Composer(s): Oscar Hammerstein II; Richard Rodgers
Performer(s): Benny Carter;
and various other artists



Men: 
June is bustin' out all over 
All over the meader and the hill 
Flowers bustin' out on bushes 
And the roughen river pushes 
Ev'ry little wheel that wheels beside the mill 
June is bustin' out all over 
The ocean is full of Jacks and Jills 
With the little tail is swishing' 
Ev'ry lady fish is wishin' that a male would come 
And grab 'er by the gills 
Because it's June... June, June, June 
Just because it's June, June, June! 

Carrie: 
Fresh and alive and gay and young 
June is a love song, sweety song 

Girls: 
June is bustin' out all over 
The branches are bustin' out with sap 
Love has found my brother Junior 
And my sister's even loonier 
And my Ma is gettin' kittenish with Pap! 

Chorus: 
June is bustin' out all over 

Carrie: 
The sheep aren't sleepin' anymore 
All the rams are chasin' ewe-sheep 
All determined there'll be new ship and the ewe-sheep aren't even keepin' score 

Chorus: 
Because it's June... June, June, June 
Just because it's June, June, June! 
It's June...It's June, June, June 
Just because it's June, June... 

Nettie: 
March went out like a lion 
A-wavin' up the weather in the bay
Then April cried and stepped aside 
And lone came pretty little May! 
May was full of promises 
But she didn't keep it quick enough for some 
And the crowd up doubtin' of promises 
Was predictin' that the summer'd never come 

Men: 
But the summer's by God
We can feel it come
You can feel it in your heart 
You can see it in the ground 

Girls: 
You can see it in the trees 
You can smell it in the breeze 

All: 
Look around! Look around! Look around! 

Nettie: 
June is bustin' out all over 
The ladies and men are payin' court 
Lots of ships are keepin' anchor 
Just because the captain hanker 
For the comfort they can only get in port 

Chorus: 
You can hear it comin'! 

Nettie: 
June is bustin' out all over 
The moonlight is shining on the shore 
And the girls who were contrary 
With the boys in January
Aren't nearly for contrary anymore! 

Nettie and Chorus: 
Because it's June... June, June, June 
Just because it's June, June, June!

I Left My Door Open And My Daddy Walked Out
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s):  Melba Joyce



What'll I do? What'll I do?
I'm just as sad as can be
Something awful happened to me
What'll I do? What'll I do?
I'm in a terrible plight
Like a great big fool I did a very silly thing last night

I left my door open and my daddy walked out
Without a doubt
Worried am I, wondering why
He never stopped to say Goodbye
I can't live without my loving daddy about
That's why I shout
He must come back, I'll lose my mind
A good man's mighty hard to find
He must have some loving now and then
Maybe that will bring him back again
I'm gonna keep my door wide open till my daddy comes back

What'll I do? What'll I do?
I'm in a terrible rage
Like a bird, he flew from his cage
Daddy of mine, send me a line
Say that you'll come back to me
When you do, I'll lock the door
And try my best to lose the key

I left my door open and my daddy walked out
Without a doubt
Worried am I, wondering why
He never stopped to say Goodbye
I can't live without my loving daddy about
That's why I shout
He must come back, I'll lose my mind
A good man's mighty hard to find
A good man's mighty hard to find
He must have some loving now and then
Maybe that will bring him back again
I'm gonna keep my door wide open till my daddy comes back
Till my daddy comes back
Gonna keep my door open till my daddy comes back

Come on in here, daddy!

June In January
Composer(s): Ralph Rainger; Leo Robin
Performer(s): Bing Crosby;
and various other artists



A clouded moon creeps across the clouded sky
Winds of January sigh and moan
And yet it's June
I can see a sky of blue
Dear the miracle is due to you
Just you
It's June in January
Because I'm in love
It always is spring in my heart
with you in my arms
The snow is just white blossoms
that fall from above
And here is the reason, my dear
Your magical charms
The night is cold
The trees are bare
But I can feel the scent of roses in the air
It's June in January
Because I'm in love
But only because I'm in love with you

Oh the night is cold!
Won't it be to bear?
But I can feel the scent of roses in the air
It's June in January
Because I'm in love
But only because I'm in love with you

Tore Down A La Rimbaud
Performer(s): Van Morrison



Showed me pictures in the gallery
Showed me novels on the shelf
Put my hands across the table
Gave me knowledge of myself
Showed me visions, showed me nightmares
Gave me dreams that never end
Showed me light out of the tunnel
When there was darkness all around instead
Tore down a la Rimbaud
And I wish my message would come
Tore down a la Rimbaud, you know it's hard some time
you know it's hard some time
Showed me ways and means and motions
Showed me what it's like to be
Gave me days of deep devotions
Showed me things I cannot see
Tore down a la Rimbaud
And I wish my purpose would come
Tore down a la Rimbaud, you know it's hard some time
You know it's hard some time
Showed me different shapes and colours
Showed me many different roads
Gave me very clear instructions
When I was in the dark night of the soul
Tore down a la Rimbaud
And I wish my writing would come
Tore down a la Rimbaud, you know it's hard some time
you know it's hard some time 

I Leave My Heart In An English Garden
Composer(s): Harry Parr Davies; Christopher Hassall
Performer(s): Edmund Hockridge; William Rayner



Breezes in the long grass ruffling my hair
Hollyhock and bluebell scenting the air
Nothing in the world can ever be
Such a sweet memory
Nothing in the world was ever so fair

I leave my heart in an English garden
Safe where the elm and the oak stand by
Though the years rise and roll away
Still shall those watchmen stay
Bold in the blue of an English sky

I leave my dreams in an English garden
Safe where the breezes of England blow
When the highways are dark and drear
I know there’s sunshine here
Bright where the roses of England grow

I leave my heart in an English garden
Safe where the elm and the oak stand by
Though the years rise and roll away
Still shall those watchmen stay
Bold in the blue of an English sky

I leave my dreams in an English garden
Safe where the breezes of England blow
When the highways are dark and drear
I know there’s sunshine here
Bright where the roses of England grow

June Bride
Composer(s): Gene DePaul; Johnny Mercer

Liza:
Oh, they say when you marry in June
You're a bride all your life

Sarah:
And the bridegroom who marries in June
Gets a sweetheart for a wife

Ruth:
Winter weddings can be gay
Like a Christmas holiday

Martha:
But the June bride hears the song
Of the spring that lasts all summer long

Dorcas:
By the light of the silvery moon
Home you ride, side by side

Liza:
With the echo of Mendelssohn's tune

Liza, Sarah & Alice:
In your hearts as you ride

All Brides:
For they say when you marry in June
You will always be a bride

Liza:
The day a maiden marries is a day she carries through the years

Martha & Dorcas:
The Church is full of flowers, bridal showers all passe

All Brides:
The groom's waiting at the altar, here comes the bride
They're each promising to love and obey

Liza:
There's madness celebrating
Every bridesmaid waiting
Just to see which one of them will catch the wedding bouquet

All Brides:
For they say when you marry in June
You will always, always, always, be a bride

Alice, Sarah & Dorcas:
In November, the snow starts to fly
Piling up, ankle-high

Liza, Martha & Ruth:
Come December, it's up to your knee
Still a bride's a bride-to-be

All Brides:
January, higher still
To the parlor window sill

Milly:
February finds a drift
And the storm that seems never to lift

Liza, Sarah & Dorcas:
March comes in like a lion, what else?
Still the snow never melts

Liza & Alice:
April showers will come, so they say

Liza:
But they don't, and it's May

All Brides:
You're about to forget the whole thing
All at once, one day, it's Spring

Such a feelin's coming over me
There is wonder in most ev'ry thing I see
Not a cloud in the sky
got the sun in my eyes
And I -- won't be surprised if it's a dream

Ev'rything I want the world to be
Is now coming true especially for me
And the reason is clear
It's because you are here
You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen

I'm on the -- top of the world lookin' down on creation and the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found, ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world

Something is the wind has learned my name
and it's tellin' me that things are not the same
In the leaves on the trees
And the touch of the breeze, there's a pleasin' sense of happiness for me

There is only one wish on my mind
When this day is through I hope that I will find
That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me
All I need -- will be mine if you are here

I'm on the -- top of the world lookin' down on creation and the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found, ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world 

I Know You're Out There Somewhere
Composer(s): Justin Hayward
Performer(s): The Moody Blues
and multiple other artists



I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow, somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you
The mist is lifting slowly
I can see the way ahead
And I've left behind the empty streets
That once inspired my life
And the strength of the emotion
Is like thunder in the air
'Cos the promise that we made each other
Haunts me to the end
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere you can hear my voice
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow, somehow
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you
The secret of your beauty
And the mystery of your soul
I've been searching for in everyone I meet
And the times I've been mistaken
It's impossible to say
And the grass is growing
Underneath our feet
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere you can hear my voice
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow, somehow
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you
From the words that I remember
From my childhood still are true
That there's no so blind
As those who will not see
And to those who lack the courage
And say it's dangerous to try
Well they just don't know
That love eternal will not be denied
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere you can hear my voice
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow, somehow
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you
Yes I know it's going to happen
I can feel you getting near
And soon we'll be returning
To the fountain of our youth
And if you wake up wondering
In the darkness I'll be there
My arms will close around you
And protect you with the truth
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere you can hear my voice
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow, somehow
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you

Ik heb vandaag zo'n wonderlijk gevoel
Slechts verliefden weten echt wat ik bedoel
Helder blauw is de lucht en ik straal van geluk
Want mijn leven heeft nu eindelijk een doel

Al m'n lege dagen zijn voorbij
En de zon schijnt dag en nacht alleen voor mij
Tot in 't diepst van mijn hart, dat op jou heeft gewacht
En nu dat je hier bent, voel ik me zo blij

'k Zit op het dak van de wereld en ik kijk naar beneden
Waar er niets of niemand mij nog raken kan
'k Zit nooit meer aan de grond, sinds de dag dat ik je vond
Zit ik heerlijk op het dak van de wereld

Alles wat ik droomde is gebeurd
En 't is net of alles zich daarom verheugd
Elke bloem, ieder blad lijkt zo glanzend en glad
En de toekomst heeft ee nieuwe roze kleur
Er is nog een ding dat ik vraag
Dat je morgen van me houdt zoals vandaag
Als je voor eeuweig lang dicht bij mij blijven kan
Is er echt niets anders meer dat ik verlang

'k Zit op het dak van de wereld en ik kijk naar beneden
Waar er niets of niemand mij nog raken kan
'k Zit nooit meer aan de grond, sinds de dag dat ik je vond
Zit ik heerlijk op het dak van de wereld

(Traditional)
Performer(s): Bob Coltman

Well I know you rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
Well I know you rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
You gonna miss your mama from rolling in your arms

Well I know my baby he's bound to love me some
Well I know my baby he's bound to love me some 
He throws his arms around me like a circle round the sun 

Well I laid down and I tried to take my rest
I laid down and I tried to take my rest 
but my mind it just kept wandering like some wild geese in the west 

I’m going down the road where I get better care 
I’m going down the road where I get better care
I believe I’ll go babe, I just don’t feel welcome here 

Just as sure as the bird fly in the sky above
Just as sure as the bird fly in the sky above 
Life ain’t worth living if you ain’t with the man you love 

The sun’s gonna shine in my back door some day
The sun’s gonna shine in my back door some day 
The wind’s gonna rise and blow my blues away

To love you baby, it’s easy as falling off a log
To love you baby, it’s easy as falling off a log 
Wanna be your baby but I sure won’t be your dog 

Jumping Someone Else's Train
Composer(s): Michael Dempsey;
Robert Smith; Lol Tolhurst
Performer(s): The Cure;
and various other artists



Don't say what you mean
You might spoil your face
If you walk in the crowd
You won't leave any trace
It's always the same
You're jumping someone else's train

It won't take you long 
To learn the new smile
You'll have to adapt 
Or you'll be out of style
It's always the same
You're jumping someone else's train

If you pick up on it quick
You can say you were there
Again and again and again
You're jumping someone else's train

It's the latest wave
That you've been craving for
The old ideal
Was getting such a bore
Now you're back in line
Going not quite quite as far 
But in half the time
Everyone's happy    
They're finally all the same
'cause everyone's jumping
Everyone else's train    

Jumping someone else's train
Jumping someone else's train
Jumping someone else's train

Why do robins sing in December
Long before the Springtime is due
And even though it's snowing, violets are growing
I know why and so do you

Why do breezes sigh ev'ry evening
Whispering your name as they do
And why have I the feeling stars are on my ceiling
I know why and so do you

When you smile at me
I hear gypsy violins
When you dance with me
I'm in heaven when the music begins

I can see the sun when it's raining
Hiding ev'ry cloud from my view
And why do I see rainbows when you're in my arms
I know why and so do you

Top Hat, White Tie And Tails
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
First performance/First recording: Fred Astaire - 1935
Covered by multiple other artists



I just got an invitation through the mails
"Your presence requested this evening
It's formal, a top hat, a white tie and tails" 
Nothing now could take the wind out of my sails
Because I'm invited to step out this evening 
With top hat and white tie and tails

I'm putting on my top hat
Tying up my white tie 
Brushing off my tails
I'm duding up my shirtfront 
Putting in the shirt studs
Polishing my nails
I'm stepping out, my dear 
To breathe an atmosphere 
That simply reeks with class 
And I trust that you'll excuse my dust 
When I step on the gas
For I'll be there
Putting down my top hat
Mussing up my white tie
Dancing in my tails

I Know Where I'm Going
(Traditional)



I know where I'm going
I know who's going with me
I know who I love
And my dear knows who I'll marry

I know where I'm going
I know who's going with me
I know who I love
And my dear knows who I'll marry

I have stockings of silk
And shoes of bright green leather
Combs to buckle my hair
And a ring for every finger

I know where I'm going
I know who's going with me
I know who I love
And my dear knows who I'll marry

Feather beds are soft
And painted rooms are bonnie
But I would give them all
For my handsome winsome Johnny

I know where I'm going
I know who's going with me
I know who I love
And my dear knows who I'll marry

Some say he is poor
But I say he's bonnie
Fairest of them all
Is my handsome winsome Johnny

I know where I'm going
I know who's going with me
I know who I love
And my dear knows who I'll marry
