Down Down


Down Down Composer(s): Francis Rossi - Rob Young First release by: Status Quo - 1974



Get down deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Get down deeper and down

I want all the world to see
To see you’re laughing
And you’re laughing at me
I can take it all from you
Again again again again again again again
Deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Get down deeper and down

I have all the ways you see
To keep you guessing
Stop your messing with me
You’ll be back to find your way
Again again again again again again again
Deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Get down

Get down deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Get down deeper and down

I have found out you see
I know what you’re doing
What you`re doing to me
I’ll keep on and say to you
Again again again again again again again
Deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Down down deeper and down
Get down

Sur la colline
De Blueberry Hill
Nos cœurs sont gravés
Sur un rocher

La petite ville
De Blueberry Hill
Depuis tant d'années
A vraiment changé

Des HLM, des buildings
S'y sont implantés
Des vieux promoteurs
Rusés
Ont tout fait raser

Le monde hostile
De Blueberry Hill
Est comme un démon
Au cœur de béton

Le vieux ciné de la plage
L'ancien casino
N'entendront plus le
Piano
De Fats Domino

Sous un parking
De Blueberry Hill
Nos cœurs sont gravés
Sur un rocher

Sous un parking
De Blueberry Hill

Mr. Down Child


Mr. Down Child
Composer(s): Sonny Boy Williamson
First recording/First release by: Sonny Boy Williamson - 1951/1952
Covered by multiple other artists



Listen downchild, please take a fool`s advice
Listen downchild, please take a fool`s advice
Don`t newer let no one woman, Man misuse you twice

Every time she smiles, says she don`t love no one but you
Everytime she smiles, says she don`t love no one but you
You better watch out buddy boy, little girl love to drop a chunk on you

I tried so hard to not even think about my past life
I tried so hard even think about my past life
Because I don`t want to ever ever make a mistake in life

Baby, I and you could be so happy, we can be so lovin` tonight
From now on darling, we can be so happy be so loving from now on
Because if I ever make a mistake in life, I know I`d ruin my happy home

La Collina Dei Ciliegi


La Collina Dei Ciliegi
Composer(s): Lucio Battisti
Performer(s): Lucio Battisti; Mogol Audio 2



E se davvero tu vuoi vivere una vita luminosa e più fragrante
cancella col coraggio quella supplica dagli occhi
troppo spesso la saggezza e' solamente la prudenza più stagnante
e quasi sempre dietro la collina è il sole!
ma perché tu non ti vuoi azzurra e lucente?
ma perché tu non vuoi spaziare con me
volando intorno a una tradizione
come un colombo intorno a un pallone frenato
e con un colpo di becco ben aggiustato
forarlo e lui giù, giù, giù...
e noi ancora ancor più su
planando sopra boschi di braccia tese
un sorriso che non ha ne' più un volto ne' più un'età
e respirando brezze che dilagano su terre
senza limiti e confini
ci allontaniamo e poi ci ritroviamo più vicini
e più in alto, e più in là
se chiudi gli occhi un istante
ora figli dell'immensità
Se segui la mia mente, se segui la mia mente
abbandoni facilmente le antiche gelosie
ma non ti accorgi che e' solo la paura
che infine uccide i sentimenti
le anime non hanno sesso nei sogni
e no, non temere, tu non sarai preda dei venti
ma perché non mi dai la tua mano perché
potremmo correre sulla collina
e dai ciliegi veder la mattina...è già là!
E dando un calcio ad un sasso residuo d'inferno
farlo rotolar giù giù giù e poi ancor più su
planando sopra boschi di braccia tese
un sorriso che non ha ne' più un volto ne' più un'età
e respirando brezze che dilagano su terre
senza limiti e confini
ci allontaniamo e poi ci ritroviamo più vicini
e più in alto, e più in là
ora figli dell'immortalità

Down Came The Rain


Down Came The Rain Composer(s): Mitch Murray - Peter Callander First release by: Mister Murray - 1965 Covered by multiple other artists

Versions In Other Languages: 1965 - Una Ragazza In Due (I Giganti) 1966 - Pan! V'la La Pluie! (Henri Salvador)



She walked like a dream from another world
I'd never seen such a lovely girl
She smiled as we stood on the sand
But just as I reached for her hand

Down came the rain
It's happened again
The thunder and lightning
Down came the rain

We walked by the sea for a long, long time
I knew somehow she was nearly mine
The look in her eyes told me this
But just as we stopped for a kiss

Down came the rain
It's happened again
The thunder and lightning
Down came the rain

She whispered to me she would be my bride
She'd always be standing by my side
I'd come to the end of my search
But just as we got to the church

Down came the rain
It's happened again
The thunder and lightning
Down came the rain
Down came the rain
Down came the rai-hai-hain

(The rain came down!)

La Colina Sobre El Terciopelo


La Colina Sobre El Terciopelo
Composer(s): León Gieco
Performer(s): León Gieco



Aunque venga el invierno y se robe las hojas y la flor
siempre habra un lugar donde descansar
y eso sera en la coli--i--na de sol, sobre el terciopelo marron, te llevare

Aunque siga la ciudad con sus gritos y sus quejas
siempre habra un lugar donde descansar
y eso sera en la colina de sol, sobre el terciopelo marron te llevare

Aunque vendan flores de papel sin perfumes ni color
siempre habra un lugar donde descansar
y eso sera en la colina de sol, sobre el terciopelo marron te llevare

Nota: La version original se toca con dos guitarras, estos acordes
fueron adaptados para acompañar la melodia basica solamente

Down By The Zuiderzee


Down By The Zuiderzee (aka In A Little Dutch Kindergarten) Composer(s): Herre De Vos - Al Bryan - L. Rosenstock Performer(s): Barron Blue; Bobby Breen



In a little Dutch kindergarten
By the little old Zuiderzee
There was started the sweetest romance
That anyone could see
She was dimpled and round and rosy
There was mischief within his eyes
But the teacher was never nosey
So the teacher never got wise
They would share their sweets
Each day in the sweetest way
That was twenty years ago
And they do the same today
Now they're married and they're so happy
And they're sending their children three
To that little Dutch kindergarten
Down by the Zuiderzee

La Colina De La Vida


La Colina De La Vida
Composer(s): León Gieco
Performer(s): León Gieco



Casi, casi nada me resulta pasajero, todo prende de mi sueños
y se acopla en mi espalda y asi subo, muy tranquilo la colina de la vida
Nunca me creo en la cima o en la gloria, eso es un gran fantasma
creado por generaciones pasadas, atascado en el camino de la vida

La realidad duerme sola en un entierro y camina triste por el sueño del mas bueno
la realidad baila sola en la mentira y en un bolsillo tiene
amor y alegrias un Dios de fantasias la guerra y la poesia

Tengo de todo para ver y creer, para odiar o no creer
y muchas veces me encuentro solitario, llorando en el umbral de la vida
Busco hacer pie en el mundo al reves, busco algun buen amigo
para que no me atrape algun dia, temiendo hallarla muerta a la vida

La realidad duerme sola en un entierro y camina triste por el sueño del mas bueno
la realidad baila sola en la mentira y en un bolsillo tiene
amor y alegrias un Dios de fantasias la guerra y la poesia

Down By The Station (Early in the Morning)


Down By The Station (Early in the Morning) Composer(s): Bruce Belland - Glen Larson Performer(s): The Four Preps



Down by the station early in the morning
Met a little girl about as cute as she could be
I turned on my charms and told her that I loved her
I said that she would always be the number one for me
She'd always be my number one girl
I said there'd be no number two or three

Down in the malt shop shortly thereafter
Met another girl about as cute as she could be
I looked for number one and when I didn't see her
I told number two she was the only girl for me

Went to the drug store and nearly lost my life
There I saw my girlfriends, one and two
Standing there together, I knew I was in trouble
But I'm a clever guy I knew what to do

I went on down by the station early in the morning
I was wooing women as cute as they could be
But then I saw another girl lookin kinda pretty
I said I'm through with one and two
I love you number three
I said I love you number three
And here's what she said to me

Just head on down by the station early in the morning
Catch yourself a trolley car that goes into the sea
I want a love that's true sir, not a love like you sir
You weren't true to one and two
You won't be true to me

Down by the station early in the morning
See the little puffer-bellies all in a row
See the station master pull the little handle
Chug, chug, woo, woo, off they go

Cuchilla de palo
platillo y loza
ollita de barro
Si le he comprado

Si le he comprado
a mi cosinera
Y con mi caja vengo cantando

porque ya estamos

en medio del carnaval
Planta de aji, planta y tomate
onde’ estara mi cocinertia
hay, tomando mate

Down By The Seaside


Down By The Seaside Composer(s): Jimmy Page - Robert Plant First release by: Led Zeppelin - 1975



Down by the seaside, see the boats go sailin'
Can the people hear, what the little fish are sayin'?
Oh, oh, the people turned away, oh, the people turned away
Down in the city streets, see all the folk go racin', racin'
No time left, to pass the time of day
The people turned away, the people turned away
So far away, so far away
See how they run, see how they run, see how they run, see how they run
Do you still do the twist?
Do you find you remember things that well?
I wanna tell you, some go twistin' every day
Though sometimes it's awful hard to tell
Out in the country, hear the people singin'
Singin' 'bout their progress, knowin' where they're goin'
Oh, oh, oh, oh, the people turned away
Yes, the people turned away
Sing loud for the sunshine, pray hard for the rain
And show your love for Lady Nature, and she will come back again
The people turned away
The people turned away

La Cloche


La Cloche
Composer(s): B. Bower
Performer(s): France Gall



Deux guitares, un banjo une cloche
Deux guitares, un banjo une cloche
Je tape à tour de bras
On se moque des doubles croches
Quand mes deux frères jouent avec moi

On met tous les disques à succès
Puis on essaie de les imiter
Ma cloche donne la cadence
Croyez-moi une cloche ça balance

Deux guitares, un banjo une cloche
Oui ça fait du bruit
Pour faire danser tous les amis

Toutes les chansons qu'on joue ensemble
Ont toutes un air qui se ressemble
On n'est pas toujours modestes
On est fiers fiers, de notre orchestre

Deux guitares, un banjo une cloche
Nous, ça nous suffit
Pour faire danser tous les amis
Pour faire danser tous les amis

La Clave Azul
Composer(s): María Teresa Lara
Performer(s): Agustín Lara
and multiple other artists



Ya se va la clave azul
se va el sol de Marabú
Ya se va, no volverá
jamás, pero jamás la clave azul

Ya se va la clave azul
se va el sol de Marabú
Ya se va, no volverá
jamás, pero jamás la clave azul

Yo te dejo mi canción arrulladora
y me llevo tu mirar de gran señora
Tu mirada fascinante y misteriosa
a través del antifaz color de rosa

Si recoges el rumor de mis querellas
temblarán en nuestro idilio las estrellas
Mis alondras a tu voz despertarán
y mis noches de dolor con tus ojos se iluminarán

Ya se va la clave azul
se va el sol de Marabú
Ya se va la clave azul
se va el sol de Marabú

Se va la clave azul
se va la clave azul

Ya se va la clave azul
se va el sol de Marabú
Ya se va la clave azul
se va el sol de Marabú

Se va la clave azul
se va la clave azul

Ya se va la clave azul
se va el sol de Marabú

Down By The River


Down By The River Composer(s): Neil Young First release by: Neil Young & Crazy Horse - 1969 Covered by multiple other artists



Be on my side, I'll be on your side
There's no reason for us to hide
It's so hard for me staying here all alone
When you could be taking me for a ride
She could drag me over the rainbow
And send me away

Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river
Dead

You take my hand, I'll take your hand
Together we may get away
This much madness is too much sorrow
It's impossible to make it today
She could drag me over the rainbow
And send me away

Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river
Dead

Be on my side, I'll be on your side
There's no reason for us to hide
It's so hard for me staying here all alone
When you could be taking me for a ride

Down By The Millside Alongside The Hillside (You Made All My Dreams Come True)


Down By The Millside Alongside The Hillside (You Made All My Dreams Come True)
Composer(s): Lew Brown; Harry D. Kerr



Dearie today is the day we were wed
Just twenty five years ago
let's take a trip to the old home today
I know that you love it
so, we'll wander

I'm going to dress in my new Sunday clothes
you wear your new gingham gown
We'll get old Dobbin and hitch up the shay
for he knows the road from town
the old road

Down by the millside, alongside the hillside
where I told love's story to you
night shades were falling, and song birds were calling
as you vowed you'd ever be true (and I sighed as I stood by your side)
those were our school days, our old golden rule days
today we will live them all through
for down by the millside, alongside the hillside
you made all my dreams come true

La Città Vecchia


La Città Vecchia
Composer(s): Fabrizio de André
First release by: Fabrizio de André - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists



Nei quartieri dove il sole del buon Dio non dà i suoi raggi
ha già troppi impegni per scaldar la gente d'altri paraggi
una bimba canta la canzone antica della donnaccia
quello che ancor non sai tu lo imparerai solo qui tra le mie braccia

E se alla sua età le difetterà la competenza
presto affinerà le capacità con l'esperienza
dove sono andati i tempi di una volta per Giunone
quando ci voleva per fare il mestiere anche un po' di vocazione

Una gamba qua, una gamba là, gonfi di vino
quattro pensionati mezzo avvelenati al tavolino
li troverai là, col tempo che fa, estate e inverno
a stratracannare a stramaledire le donne, il tempo ed il governo

Loro cercan là, la felicità dentro a un bicchiere
per dimenticare d'esser stati presi per il sedere
ci sarà allegria anche in agonia col vino forte
porteran sul viso l'ombra di un sorriso tra le braccia della morte

Vecchio professore cosa vai cercando in quel portone
forse quella che sola ti può dare una lezione
quella che di giorno chiami con disprezzo pubblica moglie
Quella che di notte stabilisce il prezzo alle tue voglie

Tu la cercherai, tu la invocherai più di una notte
ti alzerai disfatto rimandando tutto al ventisette
quando incasserai delapiderai mezza pensione
diecimila lire per sentirti dire "micio bello e bamboccione"

Se ti inoltrerai lungo le calate dei vecchi moli
In quell'aria spessa carica di sale, gonfia di odori
lì ci troverai i ladri gli assassini e il tipo strano
quello che ha venduto per tremila lire sua madre a un nano

Se tu penserai, se giudicherai
da buon borghese
li condannerai a cinquemila anni più le spese
ma se capirai, se li cercherai fino in fondo
se non sono gigli son pur sempre figli
vittime di questo mondo
