And She Was
And She Was
Composer(s): David Byrne
First release by: Talking Heads - 1985
And she was lying in the grass
And she could hear the highway breathing
And she could see a nearby factory
She's making sure she is not dreaming
See the lights of a neighbor's house
Now she's starting to rise
Take a minute to concentrate
And she opens up her eyes
The world was moving and she was right there with it (and she was)
The world was moving she was floating above it (and she was) and she was
And she was drifting through the backyard
And she was taking off her dress
And she was moving very slowly
Rising up above the earth
Moving into the universe
Drifting this way and that
Not touching ground at all
Up above the yard
The world was moving and she was right there with it (and she was)
The world was moving she was floating above it (and she was) and she was
She was glad about it... no doubt about it
She isn't sure where she's gone
No time to think about what to tell them
No time to think about what she's done
And she was
And she was looking at herself
And things were looking like a movie
She had a pleasant elevation
She's moving out in all directions
The world was moving and she was right there with it (and she was)
The world was moving she was floating above it (and she was) and she was

Daniel Boone
Composer(s): Vera Matson; Lionel Newman
Performer(s): Fess Parker
Daniel Boone was a man
Yes a big man
With an eye like an eagle
and as tall as a mountain was he
Daniel Boone was a man
Yes a big man.
He was brave he was fearless
and as tough as a mighty oak tree
From the coonskin cap on the top of ol' Dan
To the heel of his rawhide shoe
The rippin’est roarin’est fightin’est man
The frontier ever knew
Daniel Boone was a man
Yes a big man
And he fought for America to make all Americans free
What a Boone
What a wonder
What a dream comer truer was he

... And Roses And Roses
... And Roses And Roses
Composer(s): Ray Gilbert - Dorival Caymmi
Performer(s): Andy Williams
and multiple other artists
Every day I sent another present
Just to let her know how very much I care
I wrote a little love note with each present
But it didn't seem to get me anywhere
My poor worried heart was almost certain
That this love affair would never be
Then I sent a dozen yellow roses and
From that moment she belonged to me
Roses, roses, roses, I thank all the roses that bloom in the spring
Love is a wonderful thing, the rest of my life I will bring her
Roses and roses and roses of love
Roses, roses, roses, I thank you for saying what I couldn't say
Oh, what a wonderful way to tell her "I love you" each day
With roses and roses and roses of love
Roses, roses, roses, I thank all the roses that bloom in the spring
Love is a wonderful thing, the rest of my life I will bring her
Roses and roses and roses of love
(Roses and roses and roses and roses of love)
Roses and roses and roses and roses of love

Originally performed by: Elton John
Covered by various other artists
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
They say Spain is pretty though I've never been
Well Daniel says it's the best place that he's ever seen
Oh and he should know, he's been there enough
Lord I miss Daniel, oh I miss him so much
Daniel my brother you are older than me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal
Your eyes have died but you see more than I
Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
Oh God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes

And On The 8th Day
And On The 8th Day
Composer(s): Gene Simmons - Vinnie Vincent
Performer(s): Kiss
The sky is fallin' and the wheels of life are grindin' out a brand new beat
The streets are burnin' with the call of the wild, and I can feel the heat
They'll call you names and spit in your face, but legends never die
Just pick up your guitar, on your knees and pray and hold your head up high
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll
On the 8th day God created rock and roll
Out of the ashes came the dawn and the shape of things to come
Never surrender, just carry on, straight to kingdom come
You sold your soul and virginity, ya can't rape a heart of gold
Yes you're born to rule, it's destiny, now it can be told
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll (rock and roll)
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll (rock and roll)
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll
Rock of ages carry the news to the heart of a brave new world
Feel the noise in the name of rock, let the heavens roar
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll (rock and roll)
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll (rock and roll)
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll ...

Dani, Se Escapó
Dani, Se Escapó
Composer(s): Miguel Mateos
Performer(s): Zas
Dani se trepó al camión
que gentilmente le hizo un lugar
Pibe, que te pasa?
Le preguntó el chofer
pero su mente no estaba allí
Dani no le contestó
prefirió observar
al intrépido camión
la ruta devorar
La tormenta había empezado
y ya en el ocaso
Dani se puso hablar
- No sé muy bien lo que busco a&ún
pero tengo algo claro
si me muevo lo encontraré
Dani no lo soportó
Dani se escapó
Quién lo ha visto dice que
lleva roto el corazón
Dani no lo soportó
Dani se escapó
Quién lo ha visto dice que
lleva roto el corazón

First release by: Mac Davis - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists
I believe in music, I believe in love
I believe in music, I believe in love
I could just sit around makin' music all day long
Long as I'm making music I know I can't do nobody wrong
And who knows maybe someday I'll come up with a song
That makes people wanna stop their fussin' and fightin'
Just long enough to sing along
I believe in music, I believe in love
I believe in music, I believe in love
Music is love and love is music, if you know what I mean
People who believe in music are the happiest people I've ever seen
So clap your hands, stomp your feet and shake your tambourine
Lift your voices to the sky, God loves you when you sing
I believe in music, I believe in love
I believe in music, I believe in love
Music is the universal language, and love is the key
To brotherhood and peace and understandin' and livin' in harmony
So take your brother by the hand and sing along with me
Find out what it really means to feel young and rich and free
I believe in music, I believe in love
I believe in music, I believe in love

And Love Goes On
And Love Goes On
Composer(s): Larry Dunn - David Foster - Brenda Russell - Maurice White - Verdine White
Performer(s): Earth, Wind & Fire
I would be so willing to give you all I got
You're a special lady, forget me not
I could be so tender, for the likes of you
Let my heart surrender
And love goes on
On and on
Your heart beats strong
As love goes on
Everyday, I'm wishing for that day to come
Feeling superstitious hoping she's the one
One day I'm lonely, next with plenty smiles
Love I find amusing
And love goes on
On and on
Your heart beats strong
As love goes on
Oh, oh, oh, and if we can't work it out
you should know, without a doubt
I will always be the one you can turn to
A friend until the end, no matter where we've been
Sometimes you can't hold on
You got to give it space – yea yea
And love goes on
On and on
Your heart beats strong
As love goes on
Baby we can work it out
Yes I really love you, and without a doubt
I can make you happy,
plant good memory that will last forever
And love goes on
On and on
Your heart beats strong
As love goes on

And It's Better Now
And It's Better Now
Composer(s): Francis Rossi - Rob Young
Performer(s): Status Quo
Riding along on the words of a song in my head
Thinking all day of the thoughts in my mind never said
I have needed a friend, over and over again
Everyone sings of a God they have known
Now I have a God of my own
And it's better now, been a long, long time
And it's better now that the words can rhyme
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song
Dreaming away, never wishing to be anyone
Never a question or reason to find right or wrong
When I looked at the end, over and over again
Riding along on the words of a song
Thinking my time had all gone
And it's better now, been a long, long time
And it's better now that the words can rhyme
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song

Dangerous Nan McGrew
Composer(s): Al Goodhart; Don Hartman
Performer(s): Helen Kane
Hotcha, Chacha, Vo-doe-de-oh
And Boop-oop Poop-oop-a-doop
Tootin', shootin', high-falutin'
I make you loop the loop
I'm from the great North West
I'm dif'rent from the rest
Stand up, stand up, throw your hands up
I shoot pants and vest
Oh, I've been a bad girl all my life
I pick my teeth with a carving knife
And I make a widow of a wife
'Cause I'm dangerous Nan McGrew
Why, I slapped Jack Dempsey in the face
And I make barbed wire look like lace
And I throw myself right out of place
'Cause I'm dangerous Nan McGrew
And I eat dynamite
And I blow up in spite
I shoot everything in sight
Beware! Boom boom! Take Care! Poo poo!
With one breath, I sink a boat
And if anybody gets my goat
I cut myself a piece of throat
'Cause I'm dangerous Nan McGrew
Why, bullets, they bounce right off my chest
And I sleep on a hornet's nest
Why, I'm the gal sends show men west
'Cause I'm dangerous Nan McGrew
Why, lions tremble when I frown
When that great big Zeppelin came to town
Remember? I'm the one that held it down
Because I'm dangerous Nan McGrew
I like destroying pelf
I shoot bottles off the shelf
I'm so bad I scare myself
Take care! Boom boom! Beware! Poo poo!
Why, I pull a train right off the tracks
And for perfume, I use shellac
When mad dogs bite, I bite 'em back
Grrrr! 'Cause I'm dangerous Nan McGrew!

And It Stoned Me
And It Stoned Me
Composer(s): Van Morrison
Performer(s): Van Morrison
and multiple other artists
Half a mile from the county fair
And the rain came pourin' down
Me and Billy standin' there
With a silver half a crown
Hands full of a fishin' rods
And the tackle on our backs
We just stood there gettin' wet
With our backs against the fence
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Hope it don't rain all day
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
And it stoned me
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like goin' home
And it stoned me
Then the rain let up, and the sun came up
And we were gettin' dry
Almost let a pick-up truck nearly pass us by
So we jumped right in and the driver grinned
And he dropped us up the road
We looked at the swim and we jumped right in
Not to mention the fishing poles
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Feel it run all over me
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
And it stoned me
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like goin' home
And it stoned me
On the way back home we sang a song
But our throats were getting dry
Then we saw the man from across the road
With the sunshine in his eyes
Well he lived all alone in his own little home
With a great big gallon jar
There were bottles too, one for me and you
And he said, "Hey! there you are"
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Get it myself from the mountain stream
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
And it stoned me
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like goin' home
And it stoned me

Dangerous Man
Dangerous Man
Composer(s): Dwight Yoakam
Performer(s): Dwight Yoakam
He's a dangerous man
He's got blood in his plans
Better watch out where you stand
'Cause he's a dangerous man
He'll make you believe that he's your friend
But don't forget it's just pretend
And he's a dangerous man
He'll tell you the right things
About all the wrong people
He'll smile and he'll say "Hey you and me
We think just the same"
You better make sure that you read
All the rules first
'Cause he runs a crooked game
He's a dangerous man
He's got blood in his plans
Better watch out where you stand
'Cause he's a dangerous man
He'll make you believe that he's your friend
But don't forget it's just pretend
And he's a dangerous man
His words are all vain
And his promise is empty
His message is loud
But it ain't meant to be clear
He hides all the clues
That have left his hands stained and dirty
And he'll wash them with your tears
'Cause he's a dangerous man
He's got blood in his plans
Better watch out where you stand
'Cause he's a dangerous man
He'll make you believe that he's your friend
But don't forget it's just pretend
And he's a dangerous man

And It Shook Me
And It Shook Me
Composer(s): Graham Parker
Performer(s): Graham Parker
And it shook me, it shook me up, it shook me up, yeah
I remember the way you looked when we first met
There are some things in this world you can’t forget
You were standing underneath the light I lost my heart, it felt all right
And it shook me, and I’m still shaking now
I remember rainy nights I thought I’d drown
Was it london new york paris or amsterdam
I forget the details no I must admit but you were there through all of it
And it shook me, and I’m still shaking now
And it shook me, it shook me up, it shook me up, yeah
Will you hold on and hope our grip don’t fail
Sometimes lovers hammer in their own coffin nails
I just read how universes start, continually they blow apart
And it shook me and I’m still shaking now
Some believe in a heaven up above
With a God that forgives all with his great love
Well I forgive you if you forgive me, hey! who needs the third party anyway
And it shook me and I’m still shaking now
And it shook me, it shook me up, it shook me up, yeah ...

Dangerous Dan McGrew
Dangerous Dan McGrew
Composer(s): Alex Kramer; Joan Whitney
Performer(s): Guy Lombardo
A bunch of the boys were whoopin’ it up
At the Malamute Café
And the ragtime kid at the music box
Was a jazz and a tune that was gay
And back of the bar in a poker game
Sat a man that everyone knew
He was grim and cold, he was bad and bold
He was dangerous Dan McGrew
And while dangerous Dan was a-playin’ his hand
And keeping his mind on his game
You could see standing by with a gleam in her eye
And her hair just as red as a flame
A gal who was tall, with a face like a doll
And her fingernails painted blue
Oh, a gal who was tall, with a face like a doll
The lady that’s known as Lou
Then out of the night which was fifty below
And into the din and the glare
A man staggered in who was haggard and thin
And his face was filled with despair
Now he looked all around until he had found
The lady that’s known as Lou
And then the stranger turned
And his eyes they burned
On dangerous Dan McGrew
Then suddenly wham! All the lights went out
And a voice cried “Die, you must!”
And then a woman screamed and a shot rang out
And somebody bit the dust
And then the lights flashed on
And the north-west mounted police
Came a-crashin’ through
They drew their guns and they said
“Which one is dangerous Dan McGrew?”
And then somebody said “whoo, whoo, they’re so big!”
And skipped across the floor
A-one, two, skip, hand on hip
Right out through the open door
Now was it the stranger a-takin’ his leave?
Or the lady that’s known as Lou?
It was nobody else in this whole wide world
But dangerous Dan McGrew

And In My Chair
And In My Chair
((Adapted from: Et Moi Dans Mon Coin (Charles Azanavour) - 1966))
((Italian Version: Ed Io Tra Di Voi (Charles Aznavour - 1970))
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - David Newburge
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour - 1998
He, he observes you from where he sits
You, it unnerves you, you lose your wits
He, he ignites you with eyes of flame
You, it excites you, you like the game
And I in my chair, 'though I hardly speak
I notice each innuendo
And I in my chair, I'm stricken with fear
At seeing the end so near
He, how to win you, views with a style
You, you continue to coyly smile
He, with his ????? ??? haunting laugh
You, only sorry that I'm around
And I in my chair, 'though I hardly speak
I see just how well he's doing
And I in my chair, I'm trying to hide
The dread that I hold inside
He, his eyes flatter, your glances touch
You, now you chatter a bit too much
He, like a gypsy, he serenades
You, you grow tipsy, your laugh cascades
And I in my chair, 'though I hardly speak
My heart's on the verge of crying
And I in my chair, my heart understands
My love is now changing hands
No, no, no it's nothing, perhaps a little tired only
Why do you ask me to "compris"
This was a beautiful evening
Yes indeed a, a beautiful evening

Danger! Heartbreak Ahead
Danger! Heartbreak Ahead
Composer(s): Carl Barefoot; Stutz-Barefood
Performer(s): Jaye P. Morgan; The Gaylords
Danger, heartbreak ahead
Look out little fool, you're not wise
Not wise to love so completely
Or fall for that look in his eyes
Danger, heartbreak ahead
Be sure little heart for you know
Yes you know what happened to you before
There's danger, travel slow
Does his kiss really mean what you think it means
Are the words that he whispers, true
Are you sure you understand, the touch of his hand
Does his touch mean too much to you
Maybe, I could be wrong
But go slow little fool for it's said
That love either finds you, or love either blinds you
To the danger of a heartbreak ahead
Does his kiss really mean what you think it means
Are the words that he whispers, true
Are you sure you understand, the touch of his hand
Does his touch mean too much to you
Maybe, I could be wrong
But go slow little fool for it's said
That love either finds you, or love either blinds you
To the danger of a heartbreak ahead

And I'll See You No More
And I'll See You No More
Composer(s): Thompkins Jr. - Wortham
Performer(s): The Stylistics
What could be colder than the attitude
That’s being carried between me and you
And now that it seems our dreams will not come true
Baby, we’re through
But if by morning we still feel
The way we felt the night before
Then let’s say no more about it
Walk out the door
And I’ll see you no more
How can this be true
Living a lie is such a foolish game
How could we think that love would mean the rain
Talking it over would make things so plain
Come on, let’s try
But if by morning we still feel
The way we felt the night before
Then let’s say no more about it
Walk out the door
And I’ll see you no more
But if by morning we still feel
The way we felt the night before
Then let’s say no more about it
Walk out the door
And I’ll see you no more
I’ll see you no more
I’ll see you no more
See you no more
See you no more
