Coldest Day
Performer(s): Madness



No I never heard through the grapevine
How you left long before your time
But in France on the radio
I could not understand a word
But I felt you go
We waited all night for the midnight lover's calling
It was the coldest day of the year
And I'm still thawing
I didn't sleep a wink
But while radio played
I was day dreaming
Of what might have been
While the cold night air was freezing
The coldest night
The coldest day of the year
What is happening mother father please
Who will save us from the autumn breeze
Shivering to a halt no one wants to speak too soon
Although we all knew under the pale blue moon
The pale moon
The pale blue moon
What happens then when the sun goes down
Tell me what's the word Johannesburg
When the rent goes up and the lights go down
On the coldest day outside the coldest town
We waited all night and I'm still falling
I didn't sleep a wink
But while radio played
I was day dreaming
Of what might have been
While the cold night air was freezing
The coldest night
The coldest day of the year
The coldest night
The coldest day of the year
The coldest night, day, year

Cold, Haily, Windy Night
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Steeleye Span
and various other artists



Oh me hat it is frozen to me head
Me feet they are like a lump of lead
Oh me shoes they are frozen to me feet
With standing at your window

Let me in, the soldier cried
Cold haily windy night
Oh let me in, the soldier cried
For I'll not go back again, no

Me father he watches down on the street
Me mother the chamber keys do keep
Oh, the doors and the windows they do creak
I dare not let you in 

Let me in, the soldier cried
Cold haily windy night
Oh let me in, the soldier cried
For I'll not go back again, no

Oh and she's rose up and she's let him in
She's kissed her true love cheek and chin
And she's drawn him between her sheets again
And she opened and she let him in 

Then she has blessed the rainy night
Cold haily windy night
Oh then she has blessed the rainy night
That she opened and she let him in 

Soldier, soldier stay with me
Soldier, soldier won't you marry me
Oh no, no, no, it never can be
So fare bid thee well forever

Then she has wept for the rainy night
Cold haily windy night
Then she has wept for the rainy night
That she opened and she let him in 

Oh and he's jumped up all out of the bed
He's put his hat all on his head
But she had lost her maidenhead
Her mother she heard the din 

Then she has cursed the rainy night
Cold haily windy night
O then she has cursed the rainy night
That she opened and she let him in

Cold, Cold, Cold

Cold, cold, cold 
Cold, cold, cold 
Freezing, it was freezing in that hotel 
I had no money, my special friend was gone 
The TV set was busted so she went along 
I called room, room service
I'm down here on my knees 
A peach or a pear, or a coconut please
But they was cold 

Well it's been a month since I seen my girl 
Or a dime to make the call 
'Cause it passed me up, or it passed me by
Or I couldn't decide at all 
And I'm mixed up, I'm so mixed up 
Don't you know I'm lonely 
And I wish the world would get off of my case 
And get on one of its own 

Cold, cold, cold 
Cold, cold, cold 
That woman was freezing, freezing cold 
Well I tried everything to warm her up 
Now I'm living in this cold hotel 
'Cause she passed me, up or she passed me by
Or I couldn't decide at all 
Oh I'm mixed up, yes I'm mixed up 
Don't you know I'm lonely 
Of all the things I had to do 
I had to fall in love 
You know she's cold 

Turn your clock back woman when you see me comin' round 
My feet don't, feet don't even touch the ground 
don't be cold, don't be cold 
don't be cold, don't be cold

Cold, Cold Heart
Composer(s): Hank Williams
Originally performed by: Hank Williams
Covered by various other artists



I tried so hard, my dear, to show
That you're my every dream
Yet you're afraid each thing I do
Is just some evil scheme
A memory from your lonesome past
Keeps us so far apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold, cold heart

Another love before my time
Made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now
For things I didn't do
In anger unkind words are said
That make the teardrops start
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold, cold heart

You'll never know how much it hurts
To see you sit and cry
You know you need and want my love
Yet you're afraid to try
Why do you run and hide from lies
To try, it just ain't smart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold, cold heart

There was a time when I believed
That you belonged to me
But now I know your heart
Is shackled to a memory
The more I learn to care for you
The more we drift apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold, cold heart

Cold Wind In August
Composer(s): Van Morrison
Performer(s): Van Morrison



I waited for you
You waited for me
That it seemed like, seemed like a mighty long time 
Baby I had to have you
Oh, I had to have you
Come rain, rain or shine 

It was a cold wind in August
Shivers up and down my spine
I was standin' in your garden
In the California pine 

I was standing shivering
I've got the fever in the rain
But I can't come on back to see you
Again and again and again 

I said I, I had to have you
Baby I had to have you
Come rain, come rain or shine 

It was a cold wind in August
Shivers up and down my spine
And I was standing in your garden 
In the California pine
California pine 

It was a cold wind in August
Shivers up and down my spine
I was standin' in your garden
In the California pine
In the California pine 

It was a cold wind in August
I was pushed on through September
Oh pushin' through September
In the rain
Pushin' through, pushin' through September
In the rain 

Ooh
It was a cold wind in August
Shivers up and down my spine
I was standin' standin' in your garden
In the California pine

Cold Wind Blows
Composer(s): Gary Moore
Performer(s): Gary Moore



Sun don`t shine round here no more
Since my baby walked on out that door
She broke my heart, make no mistake
All I did was give
All she did was take
But don`t you know, where she goes
The cold wind blows

Well my baby told so many lies
I couldn`t see through my blinded eyes
She choked me up with her bad, bad seed
Took the flowers I gave her and strangled them with weeds
But don`t you know, where she goes
The cold wind blows

I ain`t gonna cry no more
I ain`t gonna cry no more
I ain`t gonna cry no more
Cry no more

Sun don`t shine round here no more
Since my baby walked on out that door
She broke my heart, make no mistake
All I did was give
All she did was take
But don`t you know, where she goes
The cold wind blows
The cold wind blows

I ain`t gonna cry no more
I ain`t gonna cry no more
I ain`t gonna cry no more
I ain`t gonna cry no more
Cry no more
Cry no more
Yeah, cry no more
Yeah, cry no more

Well I woke up this morning
With the cold water

Police at the station
And they don't look friendly
Well they don't look friendly

Police at the station

Blind or crippled
Sharp or dull

By a 40 watt bulb
What price freedom
Dirt is my rug
Well I sleep like a baby
With the snakes and the bugs

Well the stores are open
But I ain't got no money
I ain't got no money
Stores are open but I
Ain't got no money
Ain't got no money
Well I ain't

Young And Healthy

Performer(s): Dick Powell & Toby Wing
and multiple other artists



Billy Lawlor:
I know a bundle of humanity
She's about so high
I'm nearly driven to insanity
When she passes by
She's a sunny little honey
But oh so hard to kiss
I'll try to overcome her vanity
And then I'll tell her this

I'm young and healthy
And you've got charms
It would really be a sin
Not to have you in my arms
I'm young and healthy
And so are you
When the moon is in the sky
Tell me what am I to do?

If I could hate "yuh"
I'd keep away
That ain't my nature
I'm full of vitamin "A," say!

Say kid! Now you go to it!

Peggy Sawyer:
To what!?!

Billy Lawlor:
Your first notes on Broadway!

Peggy Sawyer:
I'm young and healthy
And you've got charms
It would really be a sin
Not to have you in my arms
I'm young and healthy
And so are you
When the moon is in the sky
Tell me what am I to do?

If I could hate "yuh"
I'd keep away
That ain't my nature
I'm full of vitamin "A," say!

I'm young and healthy
So let's be bold
In a year or two or three
Maybe we will be
Too old

Well if I could hold, hold my heart in my hand
Yeah if I could hold, hold my heart in my hand
You know I would show you pretty girls, just how to treat your man

You'd Be Hard To Replace
Composer(s): Harry Warren - Ira Gershwin
Performer(s): Fred Astaire



All that I know is
You'd be hard to replace
Where else in all the world
Such loveliness and such grace

The poet often chanted
The love he found divine
But never was he granted
A lady love like mine

Deep down, deep down inside
My secret heart knows
The more that I'm with you
The more and more my rapture grows

Without you by my side, I fear
No future could I face
For you'd be oh so hard to replace

Cold Turkey
Composer(s): John Lennon
Originally performed by: John Lennon & The Plastic Ono Band
Covered by various other artists



Temperature's rising
Fever is high
Can't see no future
Can't see no sky

My feet are so heavy
So is my head
I wish I was a baby
I wish I was dead

Cold turkey has got me on the run
Body is aching
Goose-pimple bone
Can't see no body
Leave me alone

My eyes are wide open
Can't get to sleep
One thing I'm sure of
I'm at the deep freeze

Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run

Thirty-six hours
Rolling in pain
Praying to someone
Free me again

Oh I'll be a good boy
Please make me well 
I promise you anything
Get me out of this hell

Cold turkey has got me on the run

A Woman's Intuition
Composer(s): Ned Washington - Victor Young
Performer(s): Lee Wiley
and multiple other artists



You go along in your quiet way
Act more strange every day
In this position
A woman's intuition
Will tell her all there is to know!

It's very clear that there's someone new
Hurting me, charming you!
That great magician
A woman's intuition
Told me all these things are so!

You haven't held me in your arms lately
You haven't kissed me in the tender way you should
It's rather obvious you've changed greatly
But I wouldn't say the change is for the good!

To give you up, what a fool I'd be!
Not a chance, no sirree!
On no condition
For my woman's intuition
Says you're the only one for me!

To give you up, what a fool I'd be!
Not a chance, no sirree!
On no condition
For my woman's intuition
Says you're the only one for me!

Lodi 
((Finnish Version: Tähtirumpali (by Kari Peitsamo Revival) - 1982))
Composer(s): John C. Fogerty
First release by: Creedence Clearwater Revival - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists



Just about a year ago, I set out on the road
Seeking my fame and fortune, looking for a pot of gold
Things got bad, and things got worse, I guess you will know the tune
Oh! Lord, Stuck in Lodi again

Rode in on the Greyhound, I'll be walking out if I go
I was just passing through, must be seven months or more
Ran out of time and money, looks like they took my friends
Oh! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

The man from the magazine said I was on my way
Somewhere I lost connections, ran out of songs to play
I came into town, a one night stand, looks like my plans fell through
Oh! Lord, Stuck in Lodi again

Mmmm ...
If I only had a dollar, for every song I've sung
And every time I've had to play while people sat there drunk
You know, I'd catch the next train back to where I live
Oh! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

Loco Por Ti
Composer(s): B. Meshel - Chris Montez
Performer(s): Chris Montez



I'm so crazy about you love
I mean every word, you see
When you put your arms around me
There's nothing more that I need
Anda yo mui loco por ti
This is how I feel
cuando tu mi besas
you make my heart stand still
I won't stop till I make you mine girl
and make you mine I will some day
if you won't love me for my kisses
then take me for my money, I pray
Anda yo mui loco por ti
This is how I feel
cuando tu mi besas
you make my heart stand still
When I'm down and feeling lonely
and mis'rys runnin' through my brain
I look into your big brown eyes
and so I'd tell you once again

Anda yo mui loco por ti ...

Someday we'll have lots of children
A boy for me, a girl for you
You'll want for her a boy like me
for him we'll want a girl like you

Anda yo mui loco por ti ...

Lock The Door, Lariston
(Traditional)
Performer(s): The Corries; Paddie Bell



Lock the door Lariston
Lion O' Liddesdale
Lock the door Lariston
Lowther comes on
The Armstrongs are flyin'
The widows are cryin'
Castletown is burnin' and Oliver is gone

Lock the door Lariston
High on the weather gleams
See how the Saxon plumes
They bon on the sky
Yeoman and carbinere (cavalryman and rifleman)
Billman and halberdiere (axeman and spearman)
Fierce is the battle and far is the cry

Bewcastle brandishes his broad scimitar
Ridley is riding his fleet-footed grey
Hidley and Howard there
Wandel O' Windermere
Lock the door Lariston
Hold them at bay

Why dae ye smile noble Elliot O'Lariston (do you)
Why does the joy candle gleem in your eye?
You hold border ranger
Beware o' your danger
Your foes are relentless
Determined and nigh

I hae Mangerton and Ogilvie (have)
Raeburn and Netherby
Old Sym O'Whitram and a' his array (all)
Come all Northumberland
Teesdale and Cumberland
Here at the Brechin Tower
End the affray

See how they wane the proud file 'o the Windermere (wind)
Howard a woe tae yer hopes o' the day (to your hopes of)
Hear the rude welkin' rend (withering)
While the Scots' shouts ascend
Elliot O'Lasriston! Elliot for aye!
(always/ever)

C'est La Vie
Performer(s): UB40



A woman came and said to me
She'd seen a lady sell her baby
For ten or twenty dollars maybe
And everybody thinks she's crazy
They're too blind to see
She never failed to call attention
To the things we never mention
Real horror, daily, courtesy of your TV
C'est La Vie

A woman came and said to me
Now listen very carefully
There's brother killing brother
People living on their knees
Biting sugar coated bullets
For the pain of this disease
C'est La Vie

A woman came and said to me
She had a husband on an island
Found his body on a wasteland
Soldiers came and took him
Just to torture her you see
All alone she mourned her lover
Crossed the sea to find a brother
Maybe he could help her get her baby back for free
C'est La Vie

A woman came and said to me
Now listen very carefully
There's brother killing brother
People living on their knees
Biting sugar coated bullets
For the pain of this disease
C'est La Vie

C'est La Vie
Composer(s): Edward R. White - Mack Wolfson
Performer(s): Sarah Vaughan



John's in love with Joan 
Joan's in love with Jim 
Jim's in love with someone 
Who's not in love with him 
What was meant to be, must be 
C'est la vie, c'est la vie 
Life's a funny thing 
When it comes to love 
You don't always conquer 
The one you're dreaming of 
As they say in old Paree 
C'est la vie, c'est la vie 
Those who fall in love agree 
It's the unsolved mystery 
If your big romance cannot be 
You'll find someone new, cherie 
There goes happy Joe (Jane) 
What a lucky guy 
He just found a sweetheart 
But no one's gonna cry 
Tho' he stole her love from me 
C'est la vie, c'est la vie

Bayou Woman
Composer(s): Tony Joe White
Performer(s): Jerry Reed; Tony Joe White; The Lazy Boys



Across the river an owl was callin'
As he slowly made his rounds
A midnight dew was softly falling
On the ground, on the ground

She was standing by the campfire
I watched her move into the dance
And when she looked at me with those sexy eyes
They seemed to say, "Hey boy, d'ya wanna take a chance?"

Bayou woman you make me feel it
Dancing barefoot in the night
Moving softly in the shadows
In the pale moonlight

Behind the clouds, the moon was slipping
I felt her move into my arms
She said, "Are you into skinnin'?"
I said, "Anything baby, to keep warm"

Bayou woman you make me feel it
Runnin' barefoot in the night
Standing golden by the river
In the pale moonlight

Bayou woman you make me feel it
Dancin' barefoot in the night
Moving softly in the shadows
In the pale, pale moonlight
