I'd Rather Be
I’d Rather Be
Composer(s): Cindy Walker
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
I'd Rather Be in a dirty old jailhouse
Wearing a ball and a chain
Than be with a girl who don’t love me
Chained by a wedding ring
I'd rather be just an old lonesome hobo
Riding the rails where they whine
Than stay with a girl who don’t want me
And lets me know it all the time
And so you’re free you can go were you want to
I wouldn’t stand in you way
If you don’t want me I don’t want you
And there’s nothing else left to say
I'd Rather Be in my grave six feet under
Shaded by some faithful tree
Than be with a girl who’s unfaithful
And that’s what you’d rather be
Ah Buddy Edmonds now
And so you’re free you can go were you want to
I wouldn’t stand in you way
If you don’t want me I don’t want you
And there’s nothing else left to say
Because I'd Rather Be in my grave six feet under
Shaded by some faithful tree
Than be with a girl who’s unfaithful
And that’s what you’d rather be

Kilburn Towers
Kilburn Towers
Composer(s): Robin Gibb; Barry Gibb; Maurice Gibb
Performer(s): The Bee Gees; Idle Wilds
I am a bird
watch me go drifting by
With my feathers of power
I laugh as the hours go slowly by
That could mean ev'rything
I am a street watching the people walk.
As I listen their conversations glisten as they start to talk
Then I hear ev'rything
Little white jug, me and Kilburn Towers
as we sit on the hill and we drink and we swill
till the early hours
Then I am ev'rything
Little white jug and me and Kilburn Towers
(music)
That could mean ev'rything
Little white jug, me and Kilburn Towers
as we sit on the hill and we drink and we swill
till the early hours
Then I am ev'rything
Little white jug and me and Kilburn Towers
Little white jug and me and Kilburn Towers
Little white jug and me and Kilburn Towers
Little white jug and me and Kilburn Towers

Two Summers
Two Summers
Composer(s): Bruce Woodley
Performer(s): The Seekers
The blue sky grows dark now
You're gone, you're gone
The good times have gone with you
You're gone
No use in me wishing, You're far, far away
Far away, away
gone from me
Our love knew two summers
But now you're gone
The days pass to winter
You're gone
Yet often I've wished that time would stand still
Time would stand still, still
You're gone from me
Two summers, two winters
And the time between
Yes, those were the good years
The years of gold and green
Two summers, two winters
And the time between
Yes, those were the good years
The years of gold and green
The warm winds grow cold now
You're gone, you're gone
My love couldn't hold you
You're gone
You were wild as the wind and born to be free
Born to be free, free
And gone from me
And gone from me

Who's Leaving Who
Who's Leaving Who
Composer(s): Mark Spiro; Jack White
Performer(s): Anne Murray; Hazell Dean
Here we are with goodbye in our eyes
running out of reasons to try
the leaves of change have fallen down
with both of us wondering why
We're all alone but still it seems
We’re thousands of miles apart
the sense of time has shifted now
and the end is beginning to start
'Cause I don't know the answers
'cause I don't know the questions
I'm just crying 'cause I don't even know
Who's leaving who
is it me
is it you
d’you think we could change
if we knew
tell me who's leaving who
is there anything left we can do
can you tell me who's leaving who
Talk to me is there a chance
of working it out heart to heart
when we get beyond our angry eyes
before everything else falls apart
'Cause I don't know the answers
'cause I don't know the questions
I'm just crying 'cause I don't even know
Who's leaving who
is it me
is it you
you think we could change
if we knew
tell me who's leaving who
is there anything left we can do
can you tell me who's leaving who
Tell me who's leaving who
is it me
is it you
d’you think we could change
if we knew
tell me who's leaving who
is there anything left we can do
can you tell me who's leaving who
Tell me who's leaving who
is it me
is it you ...

Two Steps From The Blues
Two Steps From The Blues
Composer(s): Johnny Brown - Deadric Malone
First recording/First release: Bobby Bland - 1960/1961
One day from the month, I first met you
your promises proved to be untrue
Step by step, I've been a fool
That's why I'm two steps from the blues
Here is a chance to be loved or be lonely
my heart awaits your call
I know it's better to have loved and lost
than never have loved at all
The reason we didn't get along,
was telegram and telephone
One brings badness, the other rendevouz
That keeps me two steps from the blues
So darling let's try and make amends
and if it should fail, let's try and try again
It makes no difference what you say or do
I'm so forgiving, I'm so forgiving
I can't stand living two steps from the blues

I'd Never Find Another You
I’d Never Find Another You
Composer(s): Gerry Goffin; Carole King
Performer(s): Billy Fury
and multiple other artists
Don’t ever worry that I’d leave you
That’s such a foolish thing to do
How could I ever go
When in my heart I know
I’d never find another you
I might find other arms to hold me
But they’d only leave me blue
The thrill of your embrace
Is what I can’t replace
I’d never find another you
Though there are times when we may quarrel
I can’t stay mad at you
For more than just a minute or two, now
I know I’d never want to leave you
‘Cause if I search my whole life through
I know there’d only be a second best for me
I’d never find another you
I know I’d never want to leave you
‘Cause if I search my whole life through
I know there’d only be a second best for me
I’d never find another you
I’d never find another you

Two Steps Forward
Composer(s): Loretta Lynn
Performer(s): Loretta Lynn
Well here you come and I know what I'm gonna say
My mind's made up and I'm a leavin' you today
Well I'm tired of askin' you where you've been
I'm tired of all this mis'ry I'm in
Two steps forward and six steps back again
Well my clothes're packed and I'm a headin' for the door
Don't look for me back cause I won't be back no more
Well I may think of you now and then
But don't hold your breath cause I don't know when
Two steps forward and six steps back again
Two steps forward and six steps back
You think I didn't want to go
These tears in my eyes they're not so real
I'm just puttin' on a show
I'm leavin' this town and that's for certain
Not much I ain't a cryin' not much I ain't a hurtin'
Two steps forward and six steps back again
Two steps forward and six steps back...
Yeah two steps forward and six steps back again

I'd Love To Live In Loveland (With A Girl Like You)
Composer(s): W.R. Williams
Performer(s): The Chordettes; Dennis Day
I want to tell you a story
A story of love that is true
Fill'd with adventure and glory
Of wonderful things we can do
Though we have trouble with Cupid
Love always finds the way
Though the story is old
'Tis the sweetest that's told
So dearie, I just want to say
Ev'rything's lovely in loveland
Where ev'ry heart's beating in tune
Like turtle doves are in Doveland
And life seems a grand honeymoon
There we can stroll in the moonlight
By babbling brooks we'll stray
Won't you come, girl of mine
To that wonderful clime
And lovelight will show us the way
I'd love to live in loveland with a girl like you
And ev'ry day a holiday with skies of baby blue
Where roses bloom forever, and sweethearts are always true
I'd love to live in loveland with a girl like you
I'd love to live in loveland with a girl like you
And ev'ry day a holiday with skies of baby blue
Where roses bloom forever, and sweethearts are always true
I'd love to live in loveland with a girl like you

Killarney, My Home Ov'r The Sea
Killarney, My Home Ov'r The Sea
Composer(s): Frederic Knight Logan
There's a place in Old Ireland that's dear to my heart
't Is the scene of my childhood so fair
From its hills and its valleys, 't was sadness to part
From the Lakes of Killarney
With beauty so rare
Tho' a stranger, alone o'er this wide world I stray
And thy lakes and thy mountains no longer I see
Still the bloom of that valley in mem'ry shall stay
For Erin, Mavourneen, my heart beats for thee
Sure there ne'er was a land where the grass grew so green
Nor a place where the sky was more fair
With the rocks and the rills one harmonious scene
By the Lakes of Killarney
With beauty so rare
I remember the colleens and lads who were there
As they danced in the glen on a bright summer's night
To the pipers glad tune as it rang on the air
Oh to think of that scene, fills my heart with delight
And I long for dear Ireland, Green Isle of the West
Where the shamrock and flow'rs bloom'd for me
There the Angels of Peace fold their bright wings and rest
By the Lakes of Killarney, my home o'er the sea

Two Steps Behind
Two Steps Behind
Composer(s): Joe Elliott
Performer(s): Def Leppard; Madcap
Walk away - if you want to
It's OK - if you need to
Well you can run
But you can never hide
From the shadow that's creeping up beside you
There's a magic running through your soul
But you can't have it all
(Whatever you do) I'll be two steps behind you
(Wherever you go) I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of you precious time
To turn around - I'll be two steps behind
Take the time to think about it
Just walk the line - you know you just can't fight it
Take a look around - you'll see what you can find
Light the fire that's burning up inside me
There's a magic running through your soul
But you can't have it all
(Whatever you do) I'll be two steps behind you
(Wherever you go) I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of you precious time
To turn around - I'll be two steps behind
Now there's a magic running through your soul
But you, you can't have it all
(Whatever you do) I'll be two steps behind you
(Wherever you go) I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of you precious time
To turn around - I'll be two steps behind
Yeah baby, two steps behind
Oh sugar, two steps behind

I'd Love To Fall Asleep And Wake Up In Your Arms
Composer(s): Louis Gaste; George Koger; Sonny Miller
Performer(s): Derek Francis & The Coronets
I'd love to fall asleep
And wake up in the arms
Of someone I've been dreaming of
When I turn out my light
That's why I pray each night
To every shining star above
I knew you'd come along
And make my life a song
Just like an angel from above
I'd love to fall asleep
And wake up in your arms
The arms of the one I love

Two Sparrows In A Hurricane
Two Sparrows In A Hurricane
Composer(s): Mark Alan Springer
Performer(s): Tanya Tucker
She's fifteen and he's barely driving a car
She's got his ring and he's got the keys to her heart
It's just matter of time
They'll spread their wings and fly
Like two sparrows in a hurricane
Trying to find their way
With a head full of dreams
And faith that can move anything
They've heard it's all uphill
But all they know is how they feel
The world says they'll never make it, love says they will
There's a baby crying and one more on the way
There's a wolf at the door with a big stack of bills
They can't pay
The clouds are dark and the wind is high
But they can see the other side
Like two sparrows in a hurricane
Trying to find their way
With a head full of dreams
And faith that can move anything
They've heard it's all uphill
But all they know is how they feel
The world says they'll never make it, love says they will
She's eighty-three and he's barely driving a car
She's got his ring and he's got the key to her heart
It's just a matter of time
They'll spread their wings and fly
Like two sparrows in a hurricane
Trying to find their way
With a head full of dreams
And faith that can move anything
They've heard it's all uphill
But all they know is how they feel
The world says they'll never make it, love says they will

I'd Love To Change The World
Composer(s): Alvin Lee
Performer(s): Ten Years After
and multiple other artists
Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me where is sanity
Tax the rich, feed the poor
Till there are no rich no more?
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
Population keeps on breeding
Nation bleeding, still more feeding economy
Life is funny, skies are sunny
Bees make honey, who needs money, Monopoly
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
World pollution, there's no solution
Institution, electrocution
Just black and white, rich or poor
Them and us, stop the war
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you

Killer On The Loose
Killer On The Loose
Composer(s): Phil Lynott
Performer(s): Thin Lizzy; Paul Di'Anno
Some people they call me Jack
Some people they call me insane
I'm looking for somebody
And I don't even know her name
I might be looking for you
Wherever you may be
For there is something I've got to do to you honey
And it's between you and me
Now you might think it's funny
Or maybe it's a joke
But you've got plenty of reason to worry honey
`Cause you wouldn't stand a hope
There's a killer on the loose again
A killer on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
A ladykiller on the loose
Now I'm not trying to be nasty
Or I'm not trying to make you scared
But there's a killer on the loose
Or haven't you heard
He'll be walking around this town
Just about midnight
Yes, that's Chinatown
That's right
That's right
Now you might think I'm messing
Or he don't exist
But honey I'm confessing
I'm a mad sexual rapist
There's a killer on the loose again
A killer on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
A ladykiller on the loose
"I'll be standing in the shadows of love
Waiting for you
Don't unzip your zipper
`Cause you know I'm Jack the Ripper
Now don't wail, don't..."
There's a killer on the loose again
Standing in the shadows
A killer on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
Coming to get you
A ladykiller on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
Standing in the shadows of love
A killer on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
That's right Jack
A ladykiller on the loose
There's a killer on the loose again
Standing in the shadow
A killer on the loose again, of love
There's a killer on the loose again
Oooh
You better watch out
A killer on the loose
Play that back
Check it back

Two Sleepy People
Two Sleepy People
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael - Frank Loesser
Performer(s): Bing Crosby & Marilyn Maxwell
and multiple other artists
Here we are, out of cigarettes
Holding hands and yawning; look how late it gets
Two sleepy people, by dawn's early light
Too much in love to say good-night
Say, here we are, in this cozy chair
Picking on a wishbone from the Frigidaire
Two sleepy people, with nothing to say
Much to much in love to break away
Do you the remember the nights we used to linger in the hall?
Papa didn't like you at all
But I was crazy 'bout you, baby!
Do you remember the reason why we married in the Fall?
To rent this little nest, and get a bit of rest!
Well, here we are, just about the same
Gawky little fellow, dizzy little dame
Two sleepy people, by dawn's early light
Much to much in love to say good-night
Good-night!
