Amnesty


Amnesty
Composer(s): Douma
Performer(s): The Hollies



Love is the sweetest amnesty
Floats like a cloud between the sky and sea
I'll give it to you
Could you please give it to me

Love is the sweetest amnesty
Given by the powers
Then let us be
I'll give it to you
Could you please give it to me
'cause I need you

We can talk
We can see
If we disagree we do it honestly
Let our lovin' be
The sweetest amnesty

Between you and me
There's bound to be
Some conscientious objection
Our spirits dressed in mystery
Speak solely through affection

We can talk
We can see
If we disagree we do it honestly
Let our lovin' be
The sweetest amnesty

Love is the sweetest amnesty
Floats like a cloud between the sky and sea
I'll give it to you
Could you please give it to me

'Cos I need you (need you)

We can talk
We can see
If we disagree we do it honestly
Let our lovin' be
The sweetest amnesty

Let our lovin' be
The sweetest amnesty

Daddy Wouldn't Buy Me A Bow Wow


Daddy Wouldn't Buy Me A Bow Wow Composer(s): Joseph Tabrar First release by: Vesta Victoria - 1892 Covered by multiple other artists



I love my little cat, I do
With soft black silky hair
It comes with me each day to school
And sits upon the chair
When teacher says "why do you bring
That little pet of your's?"
I tell her that I bring my cat
Along with me because
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
I've got a little cat
And I'm very fond of that
But I'd rather have a bow-wow
Wow, wow, wow, wow
We used to have two tiny dogs
Such pretty little dears
But daddy sold 'em 'cause they used
To bite each other's ears
I cried all day, at eight each night
Papa sent me to bed
When Ma came home and wiped my eyes
I cried again and said
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
I've got a little cat
And I'm very fond of that
But I'd rather have a bow-wow
Wow, wow, wow, wow
I'll be so glad when I get old
To do just as I "likes"
I'll keep a parrot and at least
A half a dozen tykes
And when I've got a tiny pet
I'll kiss the little thing
Then put it in its little cot
And on to it I'll sing
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
I've got a little cat
And I'm very fond of that
But I'd rather have a bow-wow
Wow, wow, wow, wow

Nice to see you again)

Daddy What If


Daddy What If Composer(s): Shel Silverstein Performer(s): Bobby Bare & Bobby Bare Jr. and multiple other artists



BB:
I'd like to introduce you to the next superstar
Twenty years from now he's gonna be so ashamed
of what he has done on this record that he's probably gonna sue me
And he and all of his friends are gonna be sitting around stoned
and he'll say, "Look what the old man made me do!"
Let's give a big round of applause for Bobby Bare Jr.

Junior:
Daddy, what if the sun stopped shining?
What would happen then?

BB:
If the sun stopped shining, you'd be so surprised
You'd stare at the heavens with wide open eyes
And the wind would carry your light to the skies
And the sun would start shining again

Junior:
But, Daddy, what if the wind stopped blowing?
What would happen then?

BB:
If the wind stopped blowing, then the land would be dry
And your boat wouldn't sail and, son, your kite couldn't fly
And the grass would see your trouble and she'd tell the wind
And the wind would start blowing again

Junior:
But, Daddy, what if the grass stopped growing?
What would happen then?

BB:
Well, if the grass stopped growing you'd probably cry
And the ground would be watered by the tears from your eyes
And like your love for me, that grass would grow so high
Yes, the grass would start growing again

Junior:
But, Daddy, what if I stopped loving you?
What would happen then?

BB:
If you stopped loving me, then the grass would stop growing
The sun would stop shining and the wind would stop blowing
So you see, if you wanna keep this old world a-going
You'd better start loving me again, again
You better start loving me again
You hear me, Bobby?

Both:
You better start loving me again
You love me, Bobby? Yes
You better start loving me again

Amnesia


Amnesia
Composer(s): Jon Pousette-Dart
Performer(s): Pousette-Dart Band



When you hit me on the head with your beer bottle
Something in my chemistry changed
And though I've already decided to forgive you
My friends think I'm permanently deranged

When I wake up try to put these things together
Of all the lovin' times that we did have
I get static in my ears and a hazy picture
And I hear your voice inside begin to laugh

I hope that it's only amnesia
Believe me I'm sick but not insane
Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia
My friends they don't look at me the same

Sometimes I feel o.k. but when I talk I stutter
I can't remember back a few minutes ago
The doctors all come up with the same answer
Boy if I'm that far gone there's no where else to go

I hope that it's only amnesia
Believe me I'm sick but not insane
Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia
My friends they don't look at me the same

I hope that it's only amnesia
Believe me I'm sick but not insane
Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia
My friends they don't look at me the same

I hope that it's only amnesia
Believe me I'm sick but not insane
Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia
My friends they don't look at me the same

Daddy Tarzan


Daddy Tarzan
Composer(s): Nino Ferrer
Performer(s): Nino Ferrer



Si tu veux monter dans mon dirigeable
On ira faire un tour autour d'un bois
On rentrera ce soir
Très tard
Quand tu le voudras

On ira s'étendre sur les nuages
On se délectera du panorama
On sera toi et moi
Les Rois
Quand tu le voudras

Si tu veux descendre du dirigeable
Tu n'as qu'à tirer sur le cordon
Et ça descend tout seul
Le sol
Se rapproche déjà

Si tu veux descendre du dirigeable
Surtout ne te retourne jamais
Il ne passe qu'une fois
Voilà
Ça se termine comme ça

Amigos Nada Más


Amigos Nada Más
Composer(s): Fernando Z. Maldonado
Performer(s): Javier Solís



Amigos nada más así tiene que ser
he de olvidar tu amor y tú también lo harás
porque ya no podré borrar jamás esas caricias
que otro amor te dejó con huellas de pasión
que no puedo arrancar

Amigos nada más así tiene que ser
culpable soy también pues también te falté
Así es mejor mi bien para los dos el separarnos
amigos nada más en bien de nuestro amor

Amigos nada más así tiene que ser
culpable soy también pues también te falté
Así es mejor mi bien para los dos el separarnos
amigos nada más en bien de nuestro amor

Daddy Sang Bass


Daddy Sang Bass Composer(s): Carl Perkins First release by: Johnny Cash - 1968 Covered by multiple other artists



I remember when I was a lad
Times were hard and things were bad
But there's a silver linin' behind ev'ry cloud
Just four people that 's all we were
Tryin' to make a livin' out of black-land dirt
But we'd get together in a family circle singin' loud

Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor)
Me and little brother would join right in there
Singin' seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won't be long
I'll rejoin them in a song
I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne

Though the circle won't be broken
By and by, Lord, by and by
Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor)
Me and little brother would join right in there
In the sky, Lord, in the sky

Now I remember after work mama would call in all of us
You could hear us singin' for a country mile
Now little brother has done gone on
But I'll rejoin him in a song
We'll be together again up yonder in a little while

Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor)
Me and little brother would join right in there
'cause singin' seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won't be long
I'll rejoin them in a song
I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne

Oh no the circle won't be broken
By and by, Lord, by and by
Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor)
Me and little brother would join right in there
In the sky, Lord, in the sky

In the sky, Lord, in the sky

Composer(s): Rafael Carrión
Performer(s): Javier Solís
and multiple other artists



Amigo organillero
arranca con tus notas pedazos de mi alma
no importa que el recuerdo destroce mis entrañas
tú sigue toca y toca

Como un puñal de luto está clavada en mi alma
aquella noche negra cuando en mis brazos
sus ojos se cerraron, sus labios muertos
ya nunca más me hablaron

Quiero morir no tengo ya aquél amor tan puro y santo
quiero seguir al más allá a la que quiero tanto
En esta noche en que la muerte espero
sigue tocando amigo organillero

Quiero morir, no tengo ya aquél amor tan puro y santo
quiero seguir al más allá a la que quiero tanto
En esta noche en que la muerte espero
sigue tocando amigo organillero
sigue tocando amigo organillero
amigo organillero

Daddy Laid The Blues On Me


Daddy Laid The Blues On Me
Composer(s): Bobbie Cryner
Performer(s): Bobbie Cryner



Well, way back in their younger days
when they were running wild
My Daddy had a dream, and Momma had a child
He said: "Girl you can't be tying me down, I'm only seventeen
"An' a man's gotta get around, if you know what I mean"
Then my Momma said: "Go on," as she stood and cried
And my Daddy said: "I'm gone, I gotta live my life"

An' I was born one summer night
When the world loved Patsy Cline
I was raised by the tracks, in a tar-paper shack
On the Georgia-Alabama line
Momma taught me how to play and sing
And we headed up to Tennessee
Momma sold my soul on Country rock and roll
But Daddy laid the blues on me

Well I signed that dotted line, and I climbed my way to being a star
When I ran across my Daddy, in a downtown Tallahasse bar
He said: "Girl there ain't no life on the road: you better come with me"
I said: "Dad, I gotta get around if you know what I mean"
Well my Daddy said: "Come on," with a tear in his eye
I said: "Sorry Daddy, I'm gone, I gotta live my life"

An' I was born one summer night
When the world loved Patsy Cline
I was raised by the tracks, in a tar paper shack
On the Georgia-Alabama line
Momma taught me how to play and sing
And we headed up to Tennessee
Momma sold my soul on Country rock and roll
But Daddy laid the blues on me

An' I was born one summer night
When the world loved Patsy Cline
I was raised by the tracks, in a tar-paper shack
On the Georgia-Alabama line
Momma taught me how to play and sing
And we headed up to Tennessee
Momma sold my soul on Country rock and roll
But Daddy laid the blues on me

Yeah, Momma sold my soul on Country rock and roll
But Daddy laid the blues on me

Amigo Mío


Amigo Mío
Composer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Performer(s): Azúcar Moreno



Amigo mío, contigo he compartido toda mi niñez
amigo mío, crecimos y luchamos
a la misma vez, a la misma vez
Amigo mío, si algo era tuyo era de los dos
amigo mío, mi vida la conoces
casi como yo, casi como yo
Siempre te encontré
en los momentos duros, siempre te encontré
y en la soledad
sentir tu compañía, ayudándome, ayudándome
Fuiste para mí
tan fiel como un hermano en la adversidad
siempre te encontré, sin nada a cambio amigo
siempre te encontré, siempre te encontré
Amigo mío, te da vergüenza hablarme de tu intimidad
amigo mío, y temes que al saberla
pierdas mi amistad, pierdas mi amistad
Amigo mío, ya sé que disimulas hasta enloquecer
para disfrazar delante de la gente
tu amor hacia él, tu amor hacia él
Yo te escucharé
no temas que al oírte me vaya a reír
yo dependeré
aunque tenga un camino
diferente a ti, diferente a ti
Tienes que alistar
no sientas miedo amigo nada va cambiar
Te respetaré
tu vida es sólo tuya y de nadie más
Te respetaré, Te respetaré
Amigo mío
Amigo mío

Daddy Frank (The Guitar Man)


Daddy Frank (The Guitar Man) Composer(s): Merle Haggard First recording/First release by: Merle Haggard - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists



Daddy Frank played the guitar and the french harp
Sister played the ringing tambourine
Mamma couldn't hear our pretty music
She read our lips and helped the family sing
That little band was all a part of living
And our only means of living at the time
And it wasn't like no normal family combo
'Cos Daddy Frank, the guitar man, was blind

Frank and Mamma counted on each other
Their one and only weakness made 'em strong
Hey, Mamma did the driving for the family
And Frank made a living with a song
Home was just a camp along the highway
A pick-up bed was where we bedded down
Don't ever once remember going hungry
I remember Mamma cooking on the ground

Daddy Frank played the guitar and the French harp
Sister played the ringing tambourine
Mamma couldn't hear our pretty music
She read our lips and helped the family sing
That little band was all a part of living
And our only means of living at the time
And it wasn't like no normal family combo
'Cos Daddy Frank, the guitar man, was blind

Don't remember how they got acquainted
I can't recall just how it came to be
But there had to be some special help from someone
And blessed be the one who let it be
Fever caused my Mamma's loss of hearing
Daddy Frank was born without his sight
And Mamma needed someone she could lean on
And I believe the guitar man was right

Daddy Frank played the guitar and the French harp
Sister played the ringing tambourine
Mamma couldn't hear our pretty music
She read our lips and helped the family sing
That little band was all a part of living
And our only means of living at the time
And it wasn't like no normal family combo
'Cos Daddy Frank, the guitar man, was blind

Amigo Mayor


Amigo Mayor
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



Amigo pude ser quien bien repara
en la musa o engendro que yo aporte
Amigo, sí, es también quien me soporte
pero amigo mayor es quien me ampara

No me cures, hermano, de delirio
de aullido, desmesura o arrebato
Déjame arder en el amor ingrato
o en la inefable luz de otro martirio

Pero cuando haga daño, aunque inocente
corre hacia mi blandiendo el pecho abierto
y descorre las nubes de mi mente
sé amigo manantial en mi desierto
que yo sabré recompensar tu acierto
con mayor amistad para la gente

I'm hip, Daddy Bird
Let's flip, Daddy Bird
Let's hop all day and fly away tonight

I'm wild, Lady Owl
Got eyes, gonna howl
Let's hop all day and fly away tonight

Bird's gotta nest in the treetop
Must have a swingin' view
Hops all around just to bee-bop
Stops in the middle of an "I love you"

I'm hip, Daddy Bird
Let's flip, Daddy Bird
Let's hop all day and fly away tonight

Drummer Man has a drumstick
Trumpet Man has a horn,
Saxophone playing sunlit
Stops in the middle of a magnificent chord

I'm there, Daddy Bear
No square, Daddy Bear
Goin' to ground to day and prowl away tonight

Horse, he's runnin' at a full jog
Kitty cat's waitin' to pounce
Sorry, don't feed the bulldog
Hit me with a hot note, watch me bounce

Let's rock, Goldilocks
Have you heard, Daddy Bird
Let's hop all day and fly away tonight
Let's hop all day and fly away tonight

Você meu amigo de fé meu irmão camarada
Amigo de tantos caminhos e tantas jornadas
Cabeça de homem mas o coração de menino
Aquele que está do meu lado em qualquer caminhada

Me lembro de todas as lutas meu bom companheiro
Você tantas vezes provou que é um grande guerreiro
O seu coração é uma casa de portas abertas
Amigo você é o mais certo das horas incertas

Às vezes em certos momentos difíceis da vida
Em que precisamos de alguém pra ajudar na saída
A sua palavra de força, de fé e de carinho
Me dá a certeza de que eu nunca estive sozinho

Você meu amigo de fé meu irmão camarada
Sorriso e abraço festivo na minha chegada
Você que me diz as verdades com frases abertas
Amigo você é o mais certo das horas incertas

Não preciso nem dizer
Tudo isso que eu lhe digo
Mas é muito bom saber
Que você é meu amigo

(Que eu tenho um grande amigo)

Daddy And Home


Daddy And Home Composer(s): Elsie McWilliams - Jimmie Rodgers Performer(s): Tanya Tucker and multiple other artists



I am dreaming, tonight, of an old southern town
And the best friend that I ever had
For I've grown so weary of roaming around
And I'm going home to my Dad

Your hair has turned to silver
And I know you're failing too
Daddy, dear, oh, Daddy
I'm coming back to you
You made my childhood happy
But still I longed to roam
I've had my way, but now I'll say
I long for you and for home

Dear Daddy, you shared all my sorrows and joys
You tried hard to bring me up right
I know you'll still be one of the boys
I'm starting back home tonight

Your hair has turned to silver
And I know you're failing too
Daddy, dear, oh, Daddy
I'm coming back to you
You made my childhood happy
But still I longed to roam
I've had my way, but now I'll say
I long for you and for home

I've had my way, but now I'll say
I long for you and for home

Ahora que te busco y
tu no estas, recuerdo
solo la tristeza
quiere hablar conmigo

Ahora que la lluvia
se ha llevado el
ultimo jiron de
tu vestido

Ahora que he olvidado
lo que soy, recuerdo
en el pasado lo que
he sido

Si he sido lo que fui
fue por tu cuerpo
Si he sido noche
fue tu noche quien lo quiso
Si he sido beso
es que mis labios aprendieron
a ser beso para ti
Si he sido lo que soy fue en
tu regazo
Si he sido vida
fue por darte a ti la vida
Amiga, Amiga (Coro)

Que dulce esa palabra
suena hoy

El tiempo no fue tiempo
entre nosotros
Estando juntos nos
sentimos infinitos
Y el universo era
peque&ntildeo comparado
con lo que eramos
tu y yo

Si fuiste lo que fuiste
fue en mi casa que para
ti fue tu palacio y tu
guarida
Amiga, Amiga
Que dulce esa palabra
y que sencilla esa
palabra suena hoy

No hay noche mas obscura
que esta noche y el frio
se va depositando
en los rincones del alma

Y ahora que el silencio
va borrando la suave
vibracion de tus palabras
Ahora que no son
la espera es nada
recuerdo lo que fui
cuando no estabas

Composer(s): Bobby Troup

Hey, listen to my story 'bout a gal named Daisy Mae
Lazy Daisy Mae
Her disposition is rather sweet and charming
At times alarming, so they say (more scat)
She has a man who's *talldarkhandsome*, large and strong
To whom she used to sing this song

Hey, Daddy, I want a diamond ring, bracelets, everything
Daddy, you oughta get the best for me
Hey, Daddy, gee, don't I look swell in sables?
Clothes with Paris labels?
Daddy, you oughta get the best for me

Here's 'n' amazing revelation
With a bit of stimulation
I'd be a great sensation
I'd be your inspiration

Daddy, I want a brand new car, champagne, caviar
Daddy, you oughta get the best for me

Hey, Daddy, I want a diamond ring, bracelets, everything
Daddy, you oughta get the best for me
Hey, Daddy, gee, don't I look swell in sables?
Clothes with Paris labels?
Daddy, you oughta get the best for me

Here's 'n' amazing revelation
With a bit of stimulation
I'd be a great sensation
I'd be your inspiration

Daddy, I want a brand new car, champagne, caviar
Daddy, Daddy
You oughta get the best for me, la-dah!!

Amie


Amie
Composer(s): Craig Lee Fuller
First release by: Pure Prairie League - 1972



I can see why you think you belong to me
I never tried to make you think, or let you see one thing for yourself
But now your off with someone else and I'm alone
You see I thought that I might keep you for my own

Amie what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do

Don't you think the time is right for us to find
All the things we thought weren't proper could be right in time
And can you see
Which way we should turn together or alone
I can never see whats right or what is wrong
(will it take to long to see)

Amie what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do

Well now
Amie what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do

Now it's come to what you want you've had your way
And all the things you thought before just faded into gray
And can you see
That I don't know if it's you or if it's me
If it's one of us I'm sure we'll both will see
Won't you look at me and tell me

Amie what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer
Longer if I do

Yeah now
Amie what you wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For a while, maybe longer if I do

Fallin' in and out of love with you
Fallin' in and out of love with you
Don't know what I'm gonna do, I'd keep
Fallin' in and out of love
With you
