Nowhere At All Composer(s): Lou Reed Performer(s): Lou Reed
Somebody's got to help me this girl's drivin' me insane 'Cause some they likes it hot, and some they likes it cold and some they just don't like it at, like it at all now
Somebody's got to help me this girl's drivin' me insane Now somebody she's got to help me It makes me feel like, ah, that I'm nowhere at all It makes me feel like I'm nowhere at all
Somebody's got to help me this girl's got me on the line now 'Cause some they likes it hot, and some they likes it cold and some they just don't like it at, like it at all now
Somebody's got to help me this girl's drivin' me insane Somebody's got to help me She makes me feel like, I'm nowhere at all It makes me feel like I'm nowhere at all
I'm nowhere at all I'm nowhere, give it to me now I'm nowhere at all now No honey, Rocky don't know it at all I'm no, no, nowhere at all I'm nowhere at all now oh, give it to me now
Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing Composer(s): Neil Young Performer(s): Buffalo Springfield; The Carpenters; Fever Tree; Noctorum; Neil Young
Who's that stomping all over my face? Where's that silhouette I'm trying to trace? Who's putting sponge in the bells I once rung And taking my gypsy before she's begun To singing the meaning of what's in my mind Before I can take home what's rightfully mine Joinin' and listenin' and talkin' in rhymes Stoppin' the feeling to wait for the times
Who's saying baby, that don't mean a thing 'Cause nowadays Clancy can't even sing
And who's all hung-up on that happiness thing? Who's trying to tune all the bells that he rings? And who's in the corner and down on the floor With pencil and paper just counting the score? And who's trying to act like he's just in between? The line isn't black, if you know that it's green Don't bother looking, you're too blind to see Who's coming on like he wanted to be
Who's saying baby, that don't mean a thing 'Cause nowadays Clancy can't even sing
And who's coming home on the old nine-to-five? Who's got the feeling that he came alive Though havin' it, sharin' it ain't quite the same It ain't no gold nugget, you can't lay a claim Who's seeing eyes through the crack in the floor There it is baby, don't you worry no more Who should be sleepin', but is writing this song Wishin' and a-hopin' he weren't so damned wrong
Who's saying baby, that don't mean a thing 'Cause nowadays Clancy can't even sing
Now You Has Jazz Composer(s): Cole Porter Performer(s): Louis Armstrong; Joe Bushkin; Bing Crosby; Terry Lightfoot
Gentlefolk of Newport Or should I say "hats and cats" Please lend an ear That you all may hear Some shimmering sharps and flats For those cosy virtuosi known as "hipsters" to the trade wish to show you now Precisely how Jazz music is made
Take some skins Jazz begins Take a bass Steady pace Take a box One that rocks Take a blue horn New Orleans-born Take a stick With a lick Take a bone Dixie-grown Take a spot Cool and hot Now you has jazz jazz jazz, jazz, jazz
Now you has (6x) Now you has jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz Now you Has Now you Has Now you Has Now you has jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz
Jazz (6x) Now you has jazz (3x)
(Extra Refrain): If you sail Over the sea Take my tip They're all molto hip In Italy As for France Believe it or not Frenchmen all prefer what they call "Le Jazz Hot" Take a plane Go to Siam In Bangkok Today, 'round the clock They have a jam Indians on the Amazon Beat one bar and all of 'em are gone, man, gone From the Equator Up to the Pole Through the air you hear everywhere Rock and roll From the East Out to the West Jazz is king 'Cause jazz is the thing Folks Dig Best

Now That The Buffalo's Gone Composer(s): Buffy Sainte-Marie Performer(s): Buffy Saint-Marie; Sweet Honey in the Rock
Can you remember the times That you have held your head high and told all your friends of your Indian claim Proud good lady and proud good man Some great great grandfather from Indian blood came and you feel in your heart for these ones
Oh it's written in books and in song that we've been mistreated and wronged Well over and over I hear those same words from you good lady and you good man Well listen to me if you care where we stand and you feel you're a part of these ones
When a war between nations is lost the loser we know pays the cost but even when Germany fell to your hands consider dear lady, consider dear man you left them their pride and you left them their land and what have you done to these ones
Has a change come about my dear man or are you still taking our lands A treaty forever your senators sign They do dear lady, they do dear man and the treaties are broken again and again and what will you do for these ones
Oh it's all in the past you can say but it's still going on here today The governments now want the Navaho land that of the Inuit and the Cheyenne It's here and it's now you can help us dear man Now that the buffalo's gone
Now That I Know Love Composer(s): Steve George; Kenny Loggins Performer(s): Kenny Loggins
How do I know if I'm in love? Who could I ever learn to trust? I asked myself these questions for so long What do I only wish to see? What do I truly know to be? I told myself to hold on tight You never know enough But now I see what I believe 'Cause I'm believin' love
Chorus: Whether my mind's sayin' it's crazy Whether my world's sayin' I'm wrong Wherever my heart goes, that's where I belong I finally found out what faith is I follow the way that it feels And heaven has never been more real
When you looked into me And you laid your hands on me At once the deaf could hear The blind could see Now that I Know Love
I was a child alone, asleep You came along and cradled me You took me in your arms And rocked me so sweetly I'd prayed for love To come to pass How do we know if love will last? And if it can't then someone tell me What we're livin' for I don't know what tomorrow holds But I know what I know
Chorus
Glory be, I believe Oh I finally see that love isn't blind 'Cause I've never seen more clearly in my life Now that I Know Love
Now It Can Be Told Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald; and various other artists
All the world's great lovers have been glorified History placed them in a romantic set In between book covers they are side by side But the real thing hasn't been written yet
Now it can be told Told in all its glory Now that we have met The world may know the sentimental story
The greatest romance they ever knew Is waiting to Unfold
Now it can be told As an inspiration Every other tale Of boy meets girl is just an imitation
The great love story Has never been told before But now Now it can be told
Now Is The Hour (aka Swiss Craddle Song) Original Maori Titles: Po Atarau; Haere Ra Composer(s): Maewa Kaihan; Dorothy Stewart; Clement Scott Performer(s): Bing Crosby; and various other artists
Sunset glow fades in the west Night o'er the valley is creeping! Birds cuddle down in their nest Soon all the world will be sleeping
And now is the hour when we must say goodbye Soon you'll be sailing far across the sea While you're away, o, then remember me When you return, you'll find me waiting here
True lovers often must part Kiss me, then leave me to sorrow! Here love, i give you my heart You will return some glad morrow
But now is the hour when we must say goodbye Soon you'll be sailing far across the sea While you're away, o, then remember me When you return, you'll find me waiting here
Now I Lay Me Down To Weep Composer(s): Carolyn Penick; Skeeter Davis Performer(s): Skeeter Davis
Now I lay me down to weep Count my tears instead of sheep Say my prayers, turn out the light But I just lay and weep all night
Now I lay me down to cry Pray the Lord that I might die But each morning I awake And listen to my poor heart break
If only I could sleep at night I'd dream that you would hold me tight But I can't dream if I can't sleep So I just lay me down to weep
(Spoken) (Sleep won't come to cryin' eyes) (And my poor heart just can't realize) (That now you're in another's keep) (So I just lay me down to weep)
Sleep won't come to cryin' eyes And my poor heart just can't realize That now you're in another's keep So I just lay me down to weep I just lay me down to weep
Now I Lay Me Down To Dream Performer(s): Bob Chester
Now I lay me down to dream of you I've spent another day, a lonely day, it's true Now I lay me down to dream of you In just a moment dear I'll dream and you'll be near My endless nights are so lonesome My endless memories remain And every dawn I awaken Hearing your name, but all in vain So I lay me down to dream of you And as I close my eyes I'll pray this dream comes true
Now And Forever (You And Me) Composer(s): David Foster; Jim Vallance; Charles Randolph Goodrum Performer(s): Anne Murray
Up until now I've learned to live without love Like a ship without a sail, wandering aimlessly lost I never knew how it felt to lose my control Now that I've found you, this is all so new
You and me, we've got a destiny Starting tonight we'll be together You and me, this is what love should be And it's gonna be right, now and forever
Darlin', inside your eyes I can see mysteries there And you're melting the ice surrounding me, I'm no longer scared I feel you inside my soul and I'm captured tonight But don't let go, this is paradise
You and me, we've got a destiny Starting tonight we'll be together You and me, this is what love should be And it's gonna be right, if you tell me There's a heaven up above, then that's what I'll believe 'cause you're the one thing that I'm so sure of
(instrumental break)
I feel you inside my soul and I'm captive tonight But don't let go, this is paradise
You and me, we've got a destiny Starting tonight we'll be together You and me, this is what love should be And it's gonna be right, now and forever
You and me, we've got a destiny Starting tonight we'll be together You and me, this is what love should be And it's gonna be right
Now And For Always Composer(s): Roy Alfred Performer(s): George Hamilton IV
Now and for always I give my heart to you And as the years go by it will be true I'll always hold you near Sure as the stars above Now and for always dear you are my love
Novo Amor Composer(s): Chico Buarque Performer(s): Nana Caymmi
Eu sei, ai eu sei Que brilha um novo amor nos olhos seus O olhar de uma mulher faz pouco até de Deus Mas não engana uma outra mulher
Eu sei, ai eu sei Que esse seu novo amor lhe quer também tão bem Que até comove aquele olhar que um homem tem Quando ele pensa que sabe o que quer
Porém, ai porém Visto que a vida gosta de uns ardis No dia em que ao seu lado ele sonhar feliz, feliz assim Feche então você seus olhos por favor E pode estar certa que o seu novo amor Resolveu voltar pra mim Ai de mim Ai de mim
Noves Fora Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner; Antonio Carlos Belchior Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner; Elis Regina; Emilio Santiago
Meus Deus, o que é que eu faço Tua beleza tá me carregando pelo braço Ai, ai, meu Deus, o que é que eu faço Tua beleza tá me carregando pelo braço
Da laranja eu quero um gomo Do limão quero um pedaço E da menina mais bonita Quero o beijo e o abraço
É tudo ou nada, noves fora nada É tudo ou nada, noves fora nada
Já rezei até pro meu santo na terra de Canindé Que me dê amor bem grande Que pequeno não dá pé
É tudo ou nada, noves fora nada É tudo ou nada, noves fora nada
A tua falta somada à minha vida tão diminuída Mas a dor multiplicada pelo fator despedida Deixou minha alma muito dividida Em frações tão desiguais E desde a hora que você foi embora Sou um zero e nada mais
Um, dois, três, ene infinito do meu lado esquerdo você que é demais
November Composer(s): Tom Waits Performer(s): Tom Waits
No shadow no stars no moon no cars November it only believes in a pile of dead leaves and a moon that's the color of bone
No prayers for November to linger longer stick your spoon in the wall we'll slaughter them all
November has tied me to an old dead tree get word to April to rescue me November's cold chain
Made of wet boots and rain and shiny black ravens on chimney smoke lanes November seems odd you're my firing squad November
With my hair slicked back with carrion shellac with the blood from a pheasant and the bone from a hare tied to the branches of a roebuck stag left to wave in the timber like a buck shot flag
Go away you rainsnout go away blow your brains out November
Nova Slum Goddess Composer(s): Edward Sanders; Steven Taylor; Ken Weaver Performer(s): The Fugs
Sherry ran away, come to live in the slums Her parents hired detectives, they were posing as bums Taking acid in a crash pad again Slum Goddess from the lower East Side Slum Goddess won't you please be my bride She organized a commune on Avenue A She swears the revolution's just a pamphlet away One Big Union with peacock feather dues Dope sex revolution pretty paisley hues Slum Goddess from the lower East Side Slum Goddess won't you please be my bride It was the summer of love, 1967 She said, come lie with me and we'll check into heaven There were 16 mattresses, a candle-wax floor And posters from the love-in on her day-glow door All the poets want to be with her, Sherry Dionysus wants to dance with her, Sherry All the pacifists want to love her, Sherry ooo Sherry Sherry Sherry ooo Sherry Sherry Sherry Slum Goddess from the lower East Side Slum Goddess won't you please be my bride She walks through the park, all the hippie hearts melt Her skirt's not much wider than a farrison belt She says history's no mystery Blast the past It's the hour of power for Blake's sunflower Slum Goddess from the lower East Side Slum Goddess won't you please be my bride Slum Goddess from the lower East Side I'm going to make her my bride
