Gone Again


Gone Again
Composer(s): Jesse Oris Farrow
Performer(s): Quicksilver Messenger Service



You ask me why my mind goes to wanderin'
And how can I be so many people in the meantime
I try to tell you, but words can't find my way
All I can tell you is, believe me, I really understand
It goes round and round after round, I'm gone again
My mind gets lonely and my heart starts of ramblin'
With my sweet life, my crazy heart starts to gamblin'
The saddest of winds blow in my mind, stealing my time, o no, there I go again
I go round and round after round, I'm gone again
Some people tell me I think they hold on forever
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know if I could ever hold on forever
Lettin' go, lettin' go feels so groovy now, oo feels so groovy now
Sweet summer falls on my mind like the dawning
I watch the witches casting spells in the morning
Sing the stranger, the brewing, the sweet of the brew
To know what you're doing is so hard to do
It goes round and round and around, I'm gone again
Something tells me that maybe I can maintain forever
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know if I could ever hold on forever
Lettin' go, lettin' go feels so groovy now, oo feels so groovy now
I see a lady, my crazy heart starts to question
Can't we lay by here a while and love this one?
Then my sweet life comes dancing by, takes me by the hand
The sweetest romancing to the stranger will never never end
And I go with her, round and round and around, I'm gone again

My Baby Left Me


My Baby Left Me
French Title: Tu Me Quittes
Originally performed by: Arthur Crudup
Covered by various other artists



Yes, my baby left me, never said a word
Was it something I done, something that she heard?
You know she left me, my baby left me
My baby even left me, never said a word

But, I stand at my window, wring my hands and cry
I hate to lose that woman, hate to say goodbye
You know she left me, I say, she left me
My baby even left me, never said goodbye
Help me, boy!

And now, one of these mornings, Lord, it won't be long
You'll look for me and, Baby, Daddy he'll be gone
You know she left me, I say she left me
My baby even left me, never said a word

Now, I stand at my window, wring my hands and moan
All I know is that the one I love is gone
My baby left me, I say she left me
My baby even left me, never said goodbye
My baby even left me, never said goodbye

Te Amaré (Miguel Bosé)


Te Amaré
Composer(s): Miguel Bose - Juan Calderon
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé



Con la paz de las montantildeas te amare
Con locura y equilibrio te amare
Con la rabia de mis a&ntildeos
Como me ensentildeaste a hacer
Con un grito en carne viva, te amare

En secreto y en silencio te amare
Arriesgando en lo prohibido, te amare
En lo falso y en lo cierto
Con el corazon abierto
Por ser algo no perfecto, te amare

Te amare, te amare
Como no esta permitido
Te amare, te amare
Como nunca se ha sabido
Porque asi lo he decidido
Te amare...

Por ponerte algun ejemplo te dire
Que aunque tengas manos frias te amare
Con tu mala ortografia
Y tu no saber perder
Con defectos y manias, te amare

Te amare, te amare
Porque fuiste algo importante
Te amare, te amare
Cuando ya no estes presente
Seguiras siendo costumbre y te amare...

Al caer de cada noche esperare
A que seas luna llena y te amare
Y aunque queden pocos restos
En se&ntildeal de lo que fue
Seguiras cerca y muy dentro, te amare

Te amare, te amare
A golpe de recuerdo
Te amare, te amare
Hasta el ultimo momento
A pesar de todo, siempre te amare...

My Baby Just Cares For Me


My Baby Just Cares For Me
Composer(s): Walter Donaldson; Gus Kahn
Originally performed by: Ethel Shutta
Covered by various other artists



My baby don't care for shows
My baby don't care for clothes
My baby just cares for me

My baby don't care for cars and races
My baby don't care for high tone places

Elizabeth Taylor is not his style
And even Ricky Martin's smile
Is something he can't see
My baby don't care who knows it
My baby just cares for me

I wonder what's wrong with baby
My baby just cares for
He just says his prayers for
My baby just cares
For me

Golondrinas De Metal


Golondrinas De Metal
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo



Hace mucho tiempo te quería perdón
por cercar tu cuerpo por venderlo a un buen postor
Por tomar tus frutos sin dar gracias a Dios
Por las huellas sin razón

Tu cuerpo era verde, tu cuerpo era azul
Hoy tu piel está tallada en asfalto gris
Selvas de cemento que el cielo quieren tocar
de más alto caerán

Madre Tierra
no debes llorar
porque la Humanidad
pronto cambiará
Madre Tierra
no debes temblar
porque la humanidad
calor te dará

Madre hoy te vuelan golondrinas de metal
aves que no cantan y que saben pelear
Hasta ,la cigüeña ha dejado de volar
Nadie la quiere esperar

Madre hoy el tiempo se ha escapado del reloj
y una paloma va volando hacia el sol
En sus alas lleva nostalgias del calor
que en la tierra no encontró

Madre Tierra
no debes llorar
porque la Humanidad
pronto cambiará
Madre Tierra
no debes temblar
porque la humanidad
calor te dará

Te Amaré
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo



Te amaré
porque eres una más
en esta gran ciudad
sólo una más

Te amaré
porque en la calle vas
callada sin hablar
y sin mirar

Te amaré
pequeña entre un millón
porque quiero oír tu voz
porque yo te puedo ver

Y te amaré porque en esta ciudad
tú eres todo lo que puedo amar
y buscaré un lugar a nuestro amor
para que un día pueda ver el sol

Te amaré
porque en la multitud
aún sigues siendo tú
en la ciudad

Golondrinas


Golondrinas
Composer(s): Carlos Gardel; Alfredo LePera
Performer(s): Carlos Gardel



Golondrinas de un solo verano
con ansias constantes de cielo lejano
alma criolla, errante y viajera
querer detenerla es una quimera
Golondrina con fiebre en las alas
peregrina, borracha de emoción
siempre sueña con otros caminos
la brújula loca de tu corazón

Criollita de mi pueblo
pebeta de mi barrio
la golondrina un día
su vuelo detendrá
no habrá nube en sus ojos
de vagas lejanías
y en sus brazos amantes
su nido construirá
Su anhelo de distancia
se aquietará en su boca
con la dulce fragancia
de su viejo querer
Criollita de mi pueblo
pebeta de mi barrio
con las alas plegadas
también yo he de volver

En tus rutas que cruzan los mares
florece una estela azul de cantares
y al conjuro de nuevos paisajes
suena intensamente tu claro cordaje
En tu eterno sembrar de armonías
tierras lejanas te vieron pasar
otras lunas siguieron tu huella
tu solo destino es siempre volar

You know sometimes I'm a rocker and sometimes I'm all a roller

I'm a rocker, I'm a roller
I may go down sometimes, but I come back to rock'n'roller
We were out on the floor when they played number six
I was stone getting firm like a cement mix
I'm a rocker, I'm a roller

We was all freaked out when the band went down
And we all got together and went around and around
It's a rocker, yeah; It's a roller
I may go down sometimes but I come back
Rockin', rollin', rockin', rollin', rockin'
N'rollin' and really havin' fun
I'm a rocker, I'm a roller

My Arms Stay Open All Night


My Arms Stay Open All Night
Composer(s): Paul Overstreet; Don Schlitz
Performer(s): Tanya Tucker



I know you like the night-life, the parties and the fun
You like to hang around until the last song has been sung
So I have made arrangements and I wanted you to know
When all the laughter's ended, there's still somewhere you can go

My arms stay open all night
From sundown 'til the morning light
Hopin' you can find where you belong
I leave the lights on
My heart is never closed
You're the only love it knows
The one dream I have is to hold you tight
My arms stay open all night

Please don't think I'm crazy, I haven't lost my mind
But when it comes to lovin' you, I can always find the time
So if it's after midnight, or just before the break of day
Anytime you need me, it'll never be too late

'Cos my arms stay open all night
From sundown 'til the morning light
Hopin' you can find where you belong
I leave the lights on
My heart is never closed
You're the only love it knows
The one dream I have is to hold you tight
My arms stay open all night

When all your so-called friends go home
You don't ever have to be alone

'Cos my arms stay open all night
From sundown 'til the morning light
Hopin' you can find where you belong
I leave the lights on
My heart is never closed
You're the only love it knows
The one dream I have is to hold you tight
My arms stay open all night

My arms stay open all night

Golliwog
English & Swedish Titles:
Sweetheart; Gulleplutt
Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog; Bosse Carlgren
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



You're not the good kind, the soft and sweet kind
I don't think mom would like your smile
The way my ears ring, the way my arms cling
I know that your kind drives me wild

Golliwog
Oooh the way you kiss is really slap-dash, Golliwog
Love me, love me!
Fire, fire
Something's burning, something's burning
Something's burning, oooh, something's burning!

I know that you're a brute
Always raw and rude and crude
But wow, your cheeky ways get me right in the mood!

Yeah, you do make me feel all right
So please just hold me, hold me tight
You can stay here with me, you can stay here with me
Tell me please that you'll stay all night

You're not the true kind, the only-you kind
I guess my mom would say you're bad
The way you make love, the way you take love
I know that your kind drives me mad

Golliwog
Oooh the way you kiss is really slap-dash, Golliwog
Love me, love me!
Fire, fire
Something's burning, something's burning
Something's burning, oooh, something's burning!

I know that you're a brute
Always raw and rude and crude
But wow, your cheeky ways get me right in the mood!

My American Beauty Rose


My American Beauty Rose
Composer(s): Harry H. Zickel



You may talk about your girlies, girlies here and everywhere
Girls from Norway, Sweden, Italy, and Spain
Saffron girls from far off China, German girls with flaxen hair
Girls from Russia, Turkey, pretty girls and plain...
Not for me your English beauty, or your girl with wooden shoes
And for me the girls of France no longer pose
While the Scotch and Irish lassies, really, I must now refuse
For my own, my fair American Beauty Rose...

She is regal in her beauty, she is queenly in her grace
Yet there's warmth and love and passion in her heart ...
And a smile of true affection seems to glorify her face
As I read the message, "only death can part"
Take the charms of all the dear ones, all that's sweetest, all that's best
'Till you've found the fairest, rarest, Flow'r that grows
In this sum of all perfection, glowing far above the rest
You will find my own American Beauty Rose

Oh you loving, happy Yankee girl....
You're the one who sets my heart awhirl ...
You are charming, pretty, wise and kind
And a dearer, sweeter one no man can find ...
In your glorious cheeks and skin and eyes ...
Our Red, White and Blue so bravely flies .....
And my heart's all for you
You're true blue thru and thru
You're my own American Beauty Rose

Te Acuerdas María


Te Acuerdas María
Composer(s): Augusto Algueró
Performer(s): Nino Bravo



Te acuerdas María
Que yo te cantaba
Sentado a la sombra del viejo molino

Te acuerdas María
Te miraban las aguas correr
Tus ojos morenos flotando en el río

Que ayer nos amamos
Creciendo en los valles
Por los pastizales robaba tus besos
Tu pelo muy suelto jugaba en el viento
Y yo te queria
con todo mi tiempo

Te acuerdas María
Que yo te quería
Te acuerdas María
Qué noche más triste
Cuando me dijiste
Que tú te marchabas
María, María

Hoy sólo nos queda el recuerdo
Y el murmullo del viento
Que sigue diciendo
Te acuerdas María

Te acuerdas María
Te acuerdas María

You Don't Know (What It's Like To Be Near)


You Don't Know (What It's Like To Be Near)
Composer(s): Werner Theunissen
Performer(s): Pussycat



If you say, that this life
has a point to arrive
you don't know what it's like to be here
and if you think that time
heals all troubles of mine
you don't know what it's like to be near

('Cause) I've been trying so hard to get by
but I've lost every move I could try
All I'm asking from you
is just look around too
and feel me

Now if you say our cast
needs the future, the past
you don't know what it's like to be here
and if you think, that I've every chance to survive
you don't know what it's like to be near

('Cause) I've been trying so hard to get by
but I've lost every move I could try
All I'm asking from you
is just look around too
and feel me

Here's a chance you could grow
now I need your loving so
but you don't know what it's like to be near

Gold Watch Blues


Gold Watch Blues
Composer(s): Mick Softley
Performer(s): Donovan; Mick Softley



I went up for my interview on the fourth day of July
First old man he questioned me until I nearly cried
Made me fill in forms until I shook with fear
About the colour of my toilet roll and if my cousin's queer

Chorus:

Here's your goldwatch and the shackles for your chain
And your piece of paper to say you left here sane
And if you've a son who wants a good career
Just get him to sign on the dotted line and work for fifty years

Chorus

He asked me how many jobs I'd had before
He nearly had a heart attack when I answered, four
Four jobs in twenty years, oh, this can never be
We only take on men who work until they die

Chorus

He took me outside to where the gravestones stand in line
This is where we bury them in quick-stone and in lime
And if you come to work for us on this you must agree
That if you're going to die please do it during tea

Chorus

This story that you heard you may think rather queer
But it is the truth you'll be surprised to hear
I did not want no job upon the board
I just wanted to take a broom and sweep the bloody floor

Chorus

Te Acordarás De Mi


Te Acordarás De Mi
Composer(s): P. Ruiz - M. de la Calva - R. Arcusa
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo



Aunque el corazón te diga a gritos
que hay en tu horizonte un nuevo sol
aunque tus deseos infinitos
traten de encontrar un nuevo amor
Aunque nuestros ojos no se abracen
ni hablen nuestros cuerpos con pasión
aunque grites para convencerte
que no queda nada entre los dos
Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
aunque no quieras tú te acordarás de mi
Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
aunque te duela tú te acordarás de mi
Aunque te engalanes de sonrisas
y quieras mostrarte muy feliz
aunque si me ves pases de prisa
yo no estoy detrás estoy en ti
Aunque te repitas cada noche
que como tu amante fracase
que no te hacen falta mis caricias
que es una mentira de los dos
Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
aunque no quieras tú te acordarás de mi
Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
aunque te duela tú te acordarás de mi
Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
aunque no quieras tú te acordarás de mi
Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
aunque te duela tú te acordarás de mi
Te acordarás de mi, te acordarás de mi
aunque no quieras tú te acordarás de mi
