Lord Protect My Child
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
First recording/First release by: Bob Dylan - 1983/1991
Covered by multiple other artists



For his age, he's wise
He's got his mother's eyes
There's gladness in his heart
He's young and he's wild
My only prayer is, if I can't be there
Lord, protect my child

As his youth now unfolds
He is centuries old
Just to see him at play makes me smile
No matter what happens to me
No matter what my destiny
Lord, protect my child

While the world is asleep
You can look at it and weep
Few things you find are worthwhile
And though I don't ask for much
No material things to touch
Lord, protect my child

He's young and on fire
Full of hope and desire
In a world that's been raped, raped and defiled
If I fall along the way
And can't see another day
Lord, protect my child

There'll be a time I hear tell
When all will be well
When God and man will be reconciled
But until men lose their chains
And righteousness reigns
Lord, protect my child

Lord Of The Thighs
Composer(s): Steven Tyler

Covered by multiple other artists



Down to who knows who, just to socialize
I'm waiting for my girls, when you call my eyes
You got no way to make a man honey 
You got to understand
I'm your man, child. Lord of the Thighs 

Well, well, Lordie my God
What do we got here? 
She's flashin' 'cross the floor 
Make it perfectly clear 
You're the bait, and you're the hook 
Someone 'bound to take a look 
I'm your man, child 
Lord of the Thighs

You must of come here to find it 
You've got the look in your eyes.
Although you really don't mind it 
I am the Lord of your Thighs! 

You must of come here to find it baby 
You've got the look in your eyes 
Although you really don't mind it  
I am the Lord of your Thighs!

Lord Of The Reedy River
Composer(s): Donovan Leitch
First release by: Mary Hopkin - 1969



Lord of the Reedy River
She fell in love with a swan
her eyes were filled with feathers
he filled her with song
in the reedy river
in the reedy river

She in her boat long hours
He in his royal plumage
She threw him some flowers
in the reedy river
in the reedy river

Black was the night
and starry
she loosened off her garments
and let fall her hair
in the reedy river
in the reedy river

Sadly they mourn inside
Lost in evening twilight
two swans glide
and fly ...
o'er the reedy river
o'er the reedy river

She fell in love with a swan ...

Lord Of The Manor
Composer(s): Terry Slater
Performer(s): The Everly Brothers



The lord of the manor loves the upstairs maid
And I tend the flowers of the seeds he lays
His collar is velvet, his hands are real soft
She sleeps with the master, I'm awakened above
I wish in the bedrooms the sheets were all torn
I wish that the flowers would only grow thorns

The lord of the manor has a wife of gray
He pays the chauffeur to drive her away
The lord & my baby are upstairs alone
The one who could stop them is physically gone
I wish in the bedrooms the sheets were all torn
I wish that the flowers would only grow thorns

Cha ...

Suddenly There's A Valley
(French Version: Soudain, Une Vallée - 1956)
Composer(s): Biff Jones - Chuck Meyer
First release by: Gogi Grant - 1955
Covered by multiple other artists



When you've climbed the highest mountain
When a cloud holds the sunshine in
Suddenly there's a valley
Where the earth knows peace with man

When a storm hides the distant rainbow
And you think you can't find a friend
Suddenly there's a valley
Where friendships never end

Touched only by the seasons
Swept clean by the waving grain
Surveyed by a happy bluebird
And kissed by the falling rain

When you think there's no bright tomorrow
And you feel you can't try again
Suddenly there's a valley
Where hope and love begin

Suddenly there's a valley
Where hope and love begin

Looking On The Bright Side
Composer(s): Howard Flynn
Performer(s): Gracie Fields
and multiple other artists



I'm looking on the bright side
Though I'm walking in the shade
Sticking out my chest, hoping for the best
Looking on the bright side of life

I'm waiting for the right tide
And if luck comes to my aid
Giving me a break, I shall be awake
Looking on the bright side of life

Today I'm in the shadow
Tomorrow maybe
The clouds will lift
And let the sun shift over to me

I'm looking on the bright side
Though today's all care and strife
I can wear a grin, sticking out my chin
Looking on the bright side of life

Sometimes grey days make us weary
And nothing seems worthwhile
Though it's difficult just keep cheering
And say with a smile

I'm looking on the bright side
Though I'm walking in the shade
Sticking out my chest, hoping for the best
Looking on the bright side of life

I'm waiting for the right tide
And if luck comes to my aid
Giving me a break, I shall be awake
Looking on the bright side of life

Today I'm in the shadow
Tomorrow maybe
The clouds will lift
And let the sun shift over to me

I'm looking on the bright side
Though today's all care and strife
I can wear a grin, sticking out my chin
Looking on the bright side of life

Da-da ...

I'm looking on the bright side
Though today's all care and strife
I can wear a grin, sticking out my chin
Looking on the bright side of life

Mysterious Woman
Composer(s): John Farry
First performance by: Marc Roberts - 1997



I saw you at an airport
Ticket in your hand
I got a feeling in my heart
I didn't understand
 
Something in the way you were
Something foreign in your eyes
Made me wish that I could share
One moment of your life
 
Mysterious woman
I wonder, did you see
The kind of spell you put on me?
Mysterious woman
I wish I could find the key
To the kind of spell you put on me
 
The room was full of faces
But you stood out from the crowd
People going places
Far away beyond the clouds
Were you from the streets of Paris
Or the coast of Italy?
Or were you from as far away
As the gulf of Araby?
 
Mysterious woman
I wonder, did you see
The kind of spell you put on me?
Mysterious woman
I wish I could find the key
To the kind of spell you put on me
 
Did I imagine you smiled
Or were my thoughts going wild?
 
Suddenly you were going
The speaker called your plane
There was no way of knowing
If I'd ever see you again
 
But this brief, so brief encounter
Will always stay with me
I will always treasure
The bittersweet memory
 
Mysterious woman
I wonder, did you see
The kind of spell you put on me?
Mysterious woman
It'll always be a mystery
The kind of spell you put on me

Looking Forward Looking Back
Composer(s): Don Walker
Performer(s): Slim Dusty



Looking forward, looking back
I’ve come a long way down the track
Got a long way left to go
Making songs, from what I know

Making sense of what I’ve seen
All the love we’ve had between
You and I, along the track
Looking forward, looking back

There are strange days
Full of change on the way
But we’ll be fine, unlike some
I’ll be leaning forward, to see what’s coming

Looking forward, looking back
I’ve come a long way down the track
Got a long way left to go
Making songs, from what I know

If I’m alone at night, I can see
Through all the triviality
Of the day and I’m okay
I just think of those who are dear to me

Looking forward, looking back
I’ve come a long way down the track
Got a long way left to go
Making songs, from what I know
Making songs, from what I know
Looking forward, looking back ...

Play with fingers of fire

Brother Clifford plays the organ

caught an old
man who was napping
and she got one back
no
fear...

Looking For Yesterday
Composer(s): Eddie DeLange - Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Woody Herman
and multiple other artists



Looking for yesterday
Most any day I spent with you
One yesterday when I still had a laugh or two
One dance to our fav'rite tune
Then to our fav'rite lane
Who cares if there is no moon
Or we're drenched with rain

Looking for yesterday
Before you wrapped the sun in clouds
One yesterday before I hid away in crowds
My heart lives in misery
Always a stone in its shoe
Looking for yesterday and you

Loose Talk
Composer(s): Freddie Heart - Ann Lucas
First release by: Freddie Heart - 1954
Covered by multiple other artists



So long we've been married
Life's burdens we carried
Though faith kept us humble and made our love true
But plans that we make up
Someone seems to break up
Oh, darlin', what else can we do?

We may have to leave here
To find peace of mind, dear
Someplace where we can live a life of our own
I know you love me And happy we could be
If some folks would leave us alone

When I go out walkin'
There's lots of loose talkin'
They say we're unhappy, and we'll drift apart
But darlin' it's not true
Because I still love you
And I do with all of my heart

They say you are leavin'
That you are deceivin'
But you tell me they say the same about me
Oh, but we'll show them they're wrong
That loose talk can do harm
And hope that the truth they will see

We may have to leave here
To find peace of mind, dear
Someplace where we can live a life of our own
I know you love me
And happy we could be
If some folks would leave us alone
If some folks would leave us alone

Looking For The Time (Workin' Girl)
Composer(s): Nanci Griffith
Performer(s): Nanci Griffith



Well, I work this corner from eleven to five
the hands get cold around midnight
You're askin' me if I've got the time
Well I don't know, but you're wastin' mine tonight

Whoa ... you say you're looking for the time 
Well, I'm a workin' girl, you just wasted mine 
If you ain't got money take it down the avenue 
'cuz I ain't got time for you until daylight

This sidewalk ice is cold as steel
I'm not Dorothy, I can't click my heels
One of these days I'll move to L.A.
Where the nights stay warm and the boys come out to play

Whoa ... you say you're looking for the time 
Well, I'm a workin' girl, you just wasted mine 
If you ain't got money take it down the avenue 
'cuz I ain't got time for you until daylight

Don't the snow light up the midnight sky
The snow plows roll and the limos fly
Don't you know 
It's just another night

Oh, once I had a lover who treated me right
He lived so wrong he's doin' ninety-nine
Oh, I wish you had the money and I had the time
'Cuz I'd just let those limos slide on by  

Soul Deep
Composer(s): Wayne Carson
First release by: Clarence Carter - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists



Darlin' I don't know much
I know I love you so much
A lot depends on your touch
My love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep
Too big to hide, can't be denied
Love is a river running soul deep

I worked myself to euphoria
Just to show I adore ya
There's nothing I wouldn't do for ya
Cause my love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep
Too big to hide, can't be denied
Love is a river running soul deep

All I ever, ever hoped to be
Depends on your love for me
If you believe me, if you should leave me
I'd be nothing but a jilted male
I know darned well, I could tell, but

I don't know much
I know I love you so much
A lot depends on your touch
My love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep
Too big to hide, can't be denied
Love is a river running soul deep
My love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep
My love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep
My love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep...

Looking For The Right One
Composer(s): Stephen Bishop
Performer(s): Stephen Bishop



I've been so unlucky, I'm no good at playing games
I remember their faces; forget their names
Thought I'd found the right one, but she hasn't found me
So I bundle up my emotions and start
Looking For The Right One
But will the right one ever come along?
Oh, I'm Looking For The Right One
When will the right one come along?
They say there's no use runnin' after something you'll never get
But my heart says, "Don't say no"
Somewhere in this lonesome city is the woman for me
But would I wait another lifetime just to keep on
Looking For The Right One
But will the right one ever come along?
Oh, I'm Looking For The Right One
When will the right one come along?
They say love always comes and goes
Well, that I already know 
Yes, I really know
Looking For The Right One
But will the right one ever come along?
Looking For The Right One
But will the right one come along?

Call Her Your Sweetheart
Composer(s): Leon Payne
Performer(s): Eddy Arnold; Frank Ifield; Alma Cogan



Call her your sweetheart whenever she feels blue
You know there's not a thing she wouldn't do for you
And when you are tempted to wander astray
Remember there are times she feels the very same way

Share all your sunshine and all your heartaches too
Let her know that she means more than all the world to you
You'll find the future holds a treasure worth much more than gold
If you'll only call her your sweetheart

Share all your sunshine and all your heartaches too
Let her know that she means more than all the world to you
You'll find the future holds a treasure worth much more than gold
If you'll only call her your sweetheart

Oh our love

Just be yourself

Just be yourself

Oh our love, oh our love

Come on lover
Make the switch
Pull the cover
Make a wish
Find out later
It's all right
Keep the faith
Kill the light

Walking the edge
Don't you run

You can't stop
But you can't go on
You can't stop
But it won't be long
Here she comes

Looks Like We Made It
Composer(s): Richard Kerr - Will Jennings
Performer(s): Barry Manilow
and multiple other artists



There you are
Lookin' just the same as you did
Last time I touched you
And, here I am
Close to gettin' tangled up
Inside the thought of you
Do you love him
as much as I love her
And will that love be strong
When old feelings start to stir
Looks like we made it
Left each other on the way
To another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so, till today
Until you were there
everywhere
And all I could taste was love
the way we made it
Love's so strange
Playin' hide and seek, with hearts
And always hurtin'
And we're the fools
Standin' close enough to touch
Those burnin' memories
And if I hold you
For the sake of all those times
love made us lose our minds
Could I ever let you go
Oh, no ... we made it
Left each other, on the way
To another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so, till today
Until you were there
everywhere
And all I could taste was love
the way we made it
