A Miner's Life
A Miner's Life
Composer(s): Keith Little
Performer(s): The Country Gentlemen
Fair warnin' to your neighbor
For all of those who labor
At tryin' to make a livin' underground
Matters not for what you're seeking,
Chances are you'll weakin'
In time the odds will turn your life around
In the coal fields of Kentucky
Man they say you're lucky
In the black lung don't put you underground
For while you're swollen with the gold dust
You're breathin' in the course dust
Your silicosis finally dragged you down
Ch. Hear that cold steel a ringin'
Hear them hammers swingin' low
A minor's life ain't hardly worth it all
Hear them tommy-knockers knockin'
Feel the reelin' and rockin'
Afraid it's goin' a come in after all
For every minor who hits pay dirt
And lives to tell it under
A thousand more arw swallowed in the mine
And for each decent minin' outfit
There's a hundred other misfits
Who never plan to see a man retire
So when choosin' your profession
Take heed and learn a lesson
From those who've lived to labor underground
Cause they've got a different story
For minin' and its glory
They'd give it all to turn their life around

How High The Moon
How High The Moon
Composer(s): Nancy Hamilton; Morgan Lewis
Performer(s): Les Paul & Mary Ford;
and various other artists
Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Somewhere there's heaven
How high the moon
There is no moon above
When love is far away too
Till it comes true
That you love me as I love you
Somewhere there's music
How near, how far
Somewhere there's heaven
It's where you are
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon
Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Somewhere there's heaven
How high the moon
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon

A Millones De Km De Aquí
A Millones De Km De Aquí
Composer(s): Miguel Bosé - Lanfranco Ferrario - Massimo Grilli
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
Soy yo acaso quien te confunde
O eres tú quien no se aclara
Soy yo acaso quien no te entiende
O eres tú quien sabe y calla
O eres tú quien se lo calla
Puede ser que yo me esconda
Pero tú, tú no me buscas
Tú no me buscas
Puede ser que yo llegue tarde
Y que más da si tú no me esperas
Que más da si no me esperas
Y en esta noche
Maldita última noche
Seamos justos, digámonos que sí
O que esta noche pa siempre nos distancie
A millones de Km de aquí
Llones de Km de aquí
Llones de Km de aquí...
Soy yo acaso quién sabe a poco
O eres tú quien sabe a nada
Soy yo acaso quien no te toca
O puede ser que tu no me sientas
¿quién de quien tiene el alma en pena?
¿quién de dos no se sincera?
Puedo ser todo un mar abierto
Y que más da si no me navegas
Que más da si no navegas
Y en esta noche
Maldita y puta noche
Seamos serios, digámonos que sí
O que esta noche pa siempre nos distancie
A millones de Km de aquí
Porque esta noche
Podemos acercarnos
Basta mirarnos, nos basta un solo sí
O qué remedio esta noche nos condene
A millones de Km
Llones de Km
Llones de Km de aquí...
Soy yo acaso
O eres tú...
Millones de Km de aquí...

When The Night Comes
When The Night Comes
Composer(s): Bryan Adams; Jim Vallance; Diane Warren
Performer(s): Joe Cocker
Hold on
I'll be back for you
It won't be long
But for now there's something else
That's calling me
So take me down a lonesome road
Point me east and let me go
That suitcase weighs me down
With memories
I just wanna be the one you run to
I just wanna be the one you come to
I just wanna be there for someone
When the night comes
Let's put all the cares behind us
And go where they'll never find us
I just wanna be there beside you
When the night comes
When the night comes
Two spirits
in the night
That can leave before the morning light
When there's nothing left to lose
And nothing left to fear
So meet me on the edge of town
Won't keep you waiting I'll be 'round
Then you and I
We'll just roll right out of here
I just wanna be the one you run to
I just wanna be the one you come to
I just wanna be there for someone
When the night comes
Let's put all the cares behind us
And go where they'll never find us
I just wanna be there beside you
When the night comes
When the night comes
I know there'll be a time for you and I
Just take my hand and run away
Think of all the pieces of the shattered dream
We're gonna make it out some day
We'll be coming back
Coming back to stay
When the night comes
I wanna be the one you run to
When the night comes
To be the one you'd come to
I wanna be the one you run to
Ooh
I just wanna be the one you run to
Wanna be the one you come to
I just wanna be there for someone
When the night comes
Let's put all the cares behind us
And go where they'll never find us
I just wanna be there beside you
When the night comes
When the night comes
Ah ah when the night comes
When the night rolls down
Ah ah when the night comes
I wanna be with you
Ah ah when the night comes
Oh ah when the night comes in
Ah ah oh
Ah ah when the night comes
When the night comes
Ah ah when the night comes
I wanna be right by your side
Ah ah when the night comes
Yes baby
Ah ah oh
Don't do that to me woman
Ah ah oh
Ever stayed when the night time gets in here
Ah ah when the night comes
I wanna rise and up in the
When the night comes
Ah ah when the night comes
Ah ah oh
Love me

How Great Thou Art
How Great Thou Art
Composer(s): Carl G. Boberg; R.J. Hughes
Performer(s): Mahalia Jackson
O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout the universe displayed
Chorus:
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, How great Thou art
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!
And when I think, that God, His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in
That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing
He bled and died to take away my sin
Chorus
When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow, in humble adoration
And then proclaim: "My God, how great Thou art!"
Chorus

A Million Years Or So
A Million Years Or So
Composer(s): Roger Miller
Performer(s): Roger Miller; Susie Arioli; Vikki Carr
I’m not worried, ’cos I know
I’ll forget you in a million years or so
I’ll miss you, but I know
I won’t miss you but a million years or so
How I loved you, loved you so
How I lost you, maybe time and tide will let me know
But I’m not worried, ’cos I know
I’ll forget you in a million years or so
I’ll miss you, but I know
I won’t miss you but a million years or so

How Glad I Am
How Glad I Am
Performer(s): Kiki Dee
My love has no beginning, my love has no end
No front no back, my love won't bend
I'm in the middle, I'm lost in a spin
Loving you
And you don't know, you don't know, you don't know, you don't know
How glad I am
My love has no bottom, my love has no top
My love won't rise, my love won't drop
I'm in the middle, and I can't stop
Loving you
And you don't know, you don't know, you don't know, you don't know
How glad I am
I wish I was a poet, so that I could express
What I, what I like to say
I wish I was an artist, so that I could paint a picture
Of how I feel, how I feel today, today
My love has no walls on either side
That makes my love whiter than white
I'm in the middle, no and I can't hide
Loving you
And you don't know, you don't know, you don't know, you don't know
How glad I am
No you don't know, you don't know, you don't know, you don't know
How glad I am
How glad I am
How glad I am

A Million To One
A Million To One
Composer(s): Phil Medley - Teddy Randazzo
Performer(s): Jimmy Charles
and multiple other artists
A million to one
That's what our folks think about this love of ours
A million to one
They say that our love will fade like yesterday's flowers
They're betting everything that our love won't survive
They're hoping (hoping) in time we'll forget
Each others' lies.
A million to one
They feel we're too young to know the meaning of love
A million to one
That they've forgotten the dreams that we're dreaming of
But we'll forgive them because we love them
After all is said and done
Dear one, in a million, a million to one
(But we'll forgive them because we love them)
After all is said and done
Dear one, in a million, a million to one

How Far Is Heaven
How Far Is Heaven
Composer(s): Tillman Franks; Jimmie Davis
Performer(s): Kitty Wells;
Ginger Boatwright; The Forbes Family
A little girl was waiting for her daddy one day
It was time to meet him, when she heard her mommy say
Come to mommy, darling, please do not cry
Daddy's gone to heaven, way up in the sky
Chorus:
How far is heaven, when can I go
To see my daddy, he's there, I know
How far is heaven, let's go tonight
I want my daddy to hold me tight
He was called so suddenly and could not say goodbye
I know that he's in heaven, we'll meet him by and by
The little girl trembled, her tears she could not hide
She looked up toward heaven and then she replied
Repeat Chorus

Abie's Irish Rose
Abie's Irish Rose
Composer(s): Mel Tormé - Robert Wells
Have you seen Abie?
He's like a baby with a brand new toy
I've never seen such a bundle of joy
He says that Rosie
Made his life cozy
And I know it's true
And you can make the same thing happen to you
Here's what you do
Take a little time to tip your hat
And don't live a life dull of may-bes
A sample example is Abie's Irish Rose
She doesn't mind if skies are cloudy
Or if birds forget to sing
What ever happens she'll find a little good in ev'rything
You don't have to be a democrat
To walk up and chat with your neighbor
You can't say a hand-shake is labor, heaven knows
If you laugh at the bad things
Work at the glad things
Remember to say your "Hellos"
You'll be happy as Abie
And Abie's Irish Rose

A Million Teardrops
Composer(s): Eddie Cochran
Performer(s): John T. Webster III & Anna
There must be a million (there must be a million)
Teardrops falling down (they're falling down)
Yes, there must be a million (yes, there's one million)
I'll forget somehow (I'll forget somehow)
How long I am crying, still I'm yours to commend
Take this love that I give you, here's my heart in my hand
Alone, alone I am crying (Oh, how I cry)
I am yours to commend (I'm yours to commend)
Take this love that I give you (my, my love I give you)
Here's my heart in my hand

A Million Moons Ago
A Million Moons Ago
Composer(s): Dick Gilbert - Paul Insetta
Performer(s): Jerry Vale
A million moons ago you said I love you so
Then suddenly you took your love from me
A million times I've tried
But a million smiles can't hide the ache that lingers way down deep inside
A million sighs have past since you said our love would last
For with the dawn I found that you were gone
A million stars so bright grew cold and lost their light
A million moons ago last night
A million moons ago you said I love you so
Then suddenly you took your love from me
A million stars so bright grew cold and lost their light
A million moons ago last night

How Does The Wine Taste?
How Does The Wine Taste?
Composer(s): Matt Dubbey; Harold Karr
Performer(s): Barbra Streisand; Vikki Carr;
Kristopher McDowell; Carmen McRae
How does the wine taste?
Does it stain your lips?
What is the fruit-like?
Just beyond my finger tips?
Just out of reach I see so much
I cannot taste and mustn't touch
Tied to my little world
My safe little world
What would it be like
If I broke the string?
Would it be lovely
And a little frightening?
There is so much I've never understood
How does the wine taste? is it good?
How does the wine taste?
Does it make you glow?
How does the wine taste?
How does the wine taste?
How does the wine taste?
I think you know!
Ooom...

A Million Miles To The City
A Million Miles To The City
Composer(s): Tom T. Hall
Performer(s): Tom T. Hall; Bobby Bare
I remember it now we were kids back then living down on the farm
We were told that the city could only bring us harm
Well how far away is the city you know that's a great big town
And Barbara said why it's a million miles and then the story got around
It's a million miles to the city from the hills and valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city and some day we all wanna go
There was a town nearby but a town is a town and a city that's somethin' else
Our daddy had been to a city but he never was much help
The buildings're taller than oak trees ah but we knew better than that
'Cause ain't nobody could climb that high the city was wide and flat
It's a million miles...
The years have passed and we have grown and traveled far and wide
The cities have changed the kids we were we see it in each other's eyes
Lord I'd love to go back to those hills again to the boy I used to be
Where the leaves in the wind and the whippoorwills
Were all just a part of the land like me
It's a million miles...

A Million Miles Away Behind The Door
A Million Miles Away Behind The Door
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - André Previn
Performer(s): Anita Gordon
Send back the world
There's too much night for me
The sky is much too high
To shelter me when darkness falls
Four cabin walls
Would be just right for me
I need a threshold I can cross
When I can sit and gather moss
Forevermore
A million miles away behind the door
Roll up the plains
There's too much view for me
There's so much space between
The waiting heart, and whispered word
It's never heard
One room will do for me
Where every evening I can stare
At someone smiling from his chair
Across the floor
A million miles away behind the door
Where every evening I can stare
At someone smiling from his chair
Across the floor
A million miles away behind the door
No fears
No fools
No lies
No rules
Just doing with my life
What life is for
A million miles away behind the door

How Does It Feel?
How Does It Feel?
Composer(s): Joe Sherman; George David Weiss
Performer(s): Nat King Cole
How does it feel when you find that your dreams are through?
How does it feel when you know that the laugh's on you?
Thought you were smart for breaking my heart
When you took that exit bow
Someone you met has made you forget, so who's the smart one now?
How does it feel when you find that your big romance
Wasn't so real, it was only a song and dance?
Maybe it's fun to kiss and then run
And hurt somebody too
But how does it feel
Now that it's happened to you?
But how does it feel now that it's happened to
How does it feel, now that it's happened
But how does it feel
Now that it's happened to you?
