The Lady From 29 Palms
The Lady From 29 Palms
Composer(s): Allie Wrubel
Performer(s): The Andrews Sisters
and multiple other artists
She left twenty-nine broken hearts
Broken in twenty-nine parts
Now there are twenty-nine fellas complainin' to their moms
About the lady from 29 Palms
She got twenty-nine Cadillacs
Twenty-nine sables from Sach's
They came from twenty-nine fellas who never had their arms
Around the lady from 29 Palms
She's a yip-yip-yippy-eyed dolly
A new kinda gal of the west
And yip-yip-yippy by-golly
Whatever she does, she does her best
She rides twenty-nine trails to bliss
Knows twenty-nine ways how to kiss
She is a gal that you dream of, you'd love to have your arms
Around the lady from 29 Palms

Ballin' The Jack
Ballin' The Jack
Composer(s): James Henry Burris - Chris Smith
Performer(s): Judy Garland & Gene Kelly
and multiple other artists
From coast to coast
From Canada to Mexico
They're doin' a new dance
A tried-and-a-true dance
That will sweep the land
And you'll think it's so grand
You'll have to learn how to do it
So please don't boo woo it
Coz we've got this little dance
That's gonna rise to fame
It's sure to put most any other dance to shame
The turkey-trot, the bunny-hug, the tickley-toe
Will be forgotten when we start to go!
Mr. Leader, won't you start the syncopation?
And we'll begin our little demonstration...
Now, first you put your two knees
Close up tight
Then you sway it to the left
Then you sway it to the right
Step around the floor kind of nice and light
Then you twist around and twist around
With all of your might
Stretch your lovin' arms straight out in space
Then you do the eagle rock with style and grace
Swing your foot way round and bring it back
Now that's what I call ballin' the jack!

Lady Divine
Lady Divine
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Oh toi ma foudre blanche
Je ne pouvais pas te respirer
Pourtant tu vois je flanche
Quand j'ai trop besoin d'oublier
Mes blues et mes déprimes
Tout s'envole en fumée
Tu me tiens par le rêve
Tu me tiens pas le bout du nez
Oh ma divine
Lady, lady, lady ma divine
Ouais, lady, lady, lady ma divine
Oh toi ma stupéfiante
La seule qui sait me chouchouter
Tu es trop excitante
Et tu sais si bien m'énerver
Mes peurs et puis mon spleen
Tu peux tout effacer
Tu me prends à tes lignes
Tu me tiens par le bout du nez
Oh ma divine
Lady, lady, lady ma divine
Lady, lady, lady ma divine
Oh ma divine
Lady, lady, lady ma divine
Lady, lady, lady ma divine
J'n'ai pas un gramme d'excuse
Je suis coupable de t'aimer
Et tous ceux qui m'accusent
N'ont jamais du te rencontrer
Mon envie ma détresse
Mon secret mon pécher
Ma folie mon ivresse
Mais où veux-tu donc m'emmener
Oh ma divine
Lady, lady, lady ma divine
Ouais, lady, lady, lady ma divine
Lady, lady, lady ma divine...

Balliamo
Balliamo
Performer(s): Lucio Dalla
Balliamo, ed ha tanto tempo che non lo facciamo
Balliamo c'e la musica che piace pure a te
Andiamo, questa sera sono in vena di follie
Noi due stretti, stretti come tanto tempo fa
Che scena, più ti guardo e piu mi sembri una regina
Sei stupenda nei tuo abito da sera
Cosi bella non ti avevo vista mai
Sei grande quando dici che tu ami l'incosciente
Più grande quando a me dici che anche tu mi vuoi così
D'accordo, ho un carattere che un pò particolare
E pure dimmi chi tu puo capire più di me?
Balliamo sempre scritta per noi due questa canzone
è una storia que assomiglia al nostro amore
un'amore messo pazzo come me
Palliamo, no vorrei che fosse lùltima canzone
Tre minuti per convincerti che è amore
La, la la la la la ...

Lady Di And I
Lady Di And I
Composer(s): Joan Baez
Performer(s): Joan Baez
Wake me with kisses in the afternoon
The butler knows any time you arrive is never too soon
He knows just where you are by the sound of your car
He'll be waiting there by the spiral stair
You could drive me crazy with your unkempt hair
You don't know what a comb is and frankly, I don't care
'Cause you're fast and you're wild and you make the butler smile
By bringing me flowers like meteor showers
Which reminds me of something that I've recently seen
It was a look in the eye of Lady Di
As she stood on the balcony knowing the last fantasy of the century was in her long white veil
Maybe she would rather have you than the Prince of Wales
And all the jewels and the crown and all the villages and towns that line the sea of the monarchy
And while I cut the roses, what about Lady Di?
She's a child of the 80's just like you and like I
Think of all of the things that she'll never do
See a rock and roll show, get a heart-shaped tattoo
Wear a t-shirt around in the middle of town
Take a Harley ride as the sun goes down
And think of all the music that I make with you
Let's take a walk on the wild side, baby, I'm in love with you
I will leave my Dior by the cabinet door
And I'll leave my bouquet on the breakfast tray
My parents are out, let's head north of the bay
Maybe go for a sail just like the Prince of Wales
Does he ever love her in the afternoon?
Was the kiss that she gave him in public just a little too soon?
And it's really a shame, she'll take half of the blame
For the boys in the Maze and their numbered days
Yes, there's a tear in the eye of Lady Di
As she looks from the balcony knowing the last fantasy of the century is probably a lie
My heart goes out to you, Princess, lovely Lady Di
For all that it seems, here I stand in my jeans
For whatever it means, it is I who am queen

Ballerina Girl
Ballerina Girl
Composer(s): Lionel Richie
Performer(s): Lionel Richie; Gary Tesca Orch.
Ballerina Girl
You are so lovely
With you standing there
I'm so aware
Of how much I care for you
You are more than now
You are for always
I can see in you
My dreams come true
Don't you ever go away
You make me feel like
There's nothing I can't do
And when I hold you
I only want to say
I love you
Ballerina Girl
The joy you bring me
Every day and night
Holding you tight
How I've waited for your love
Sometimes I've wondered
If you'd ever come my way
Now that I've finally found you
This is where my heart will stay
I'm never gonna break your heart
Never will we drift apart
'Cause all I wanna do
Is share my whole life with you
'Cause you make me feel like
There's nothing I can't do
I guess I finally realized
There's nothing else like loving you
Ballerina Girl
You are so lovely
I can see in you
My dreams come true
Don't you ever go away
Ballerina Girl...

My lady d'Arbanville
Io so il tuo destino
Vivrai la tua vita
Soltanto in un mattino, soltante in un mattino
My lady d'Arbanville
Io specchio si spezzo
L'inverno è venuto
La primavera no, la primavera no
Un giorno di maggio
Un uomo ti sveglio
Dormi nei tuoi occhi
E poi ti abbandono, e poi ti abbandono
La, la, la...
O lady d'Arbanville
Io mi ricordero
Tornando al castello
Lo specchio si spezzo, io specchio si spezzo
Le tue mani bianche
Qualcuno accarezzo
Ma poi solo il vento
D'amoe ti parlo, d'amore ti parlo
Un giorno di maggio un uomo ti sveglio
Dormi nei tuoi occhi
E poi ti abbandono, e poi ti abbandono
O Lady my Lady
Io specchio si spezzo
La primavera no, la primavera no
La primavera no, la primavera no

Ballerina (Trois & His Mandoliers)
Ballerina
Composer(s): Jimmy Kennedy
Performer(s): Troise & His Mandoliers
It’s only when I see the ballerina dancing
On my guitar I start romancing
I play a tune that says I love you
Each evening while her castanets are gaily beating
On my guitar I keep repeating
A little tune that says I love you
I watch her cool dark eyes
That glow like midnight skies
She doesn’t realise that some night soon
With the stars above her, I’ll tell her how I love her
When I see the ballerina dancing
On my guitar I start romancing
I play a tune that says I love you
When I see the ballerina dancing
On my guitar I start romancing
I play a tune that says I love you

My lady d'Arbanville
Vous êtes seule ce soir
Vos yeux semblent si las
Que c'est mon désespoir, que c'est mon désespoir
My lady d 'Arbanville
Le maître n'est pas là
Et comme à chaque fois
Il ne rentrera pas, il ne rentrera pas
Oh lady d'Arbanville
Quand il vous emmena
En robe d'épouser
Vos yeux semblait chanter, vos yeux semblait chanter
La, la, la...
My lady d'Arbanville
Vos yeux sont gris ce soir
Votre teint si blanc
Me donne du tourment, me donne du tourment
My lady d 'Arbanville
Quand le soleil est bas
Tu le vois s éloigner
C'est un beau cavalier, c'est un beau cavalier
Oh lady my lady
Le maître n 'est pas là
Oh my lady, my lady
Il ne rentrera pas, il ne rentrera pas
La, la, la...

Ballerina (Jimmy Dorsey)
Ballerina
Composer(s): Bob Russell - Carl Sigman
First release by: Jimmy Dorsey & His Orch. - 1947
Covered by multiple other artists
Dance, ballerina, dance
And do your pirouette in rhythm with your achin' heart
Dance, ballerina, dance
You mustn't once forget a dancer has to dance the part
Whirl, ballerina, whirl
And just ignore the chair that's empty in the second row
This is your moment, girl
Although he's not out there applauding as you steal the show
Once you said his love must wait its turn
You wanted fame instead
I guess that's your concern
We live and learn
And love is gone, ballerina, gone
So on with your career, you can't afford a backward glance
Dance on and on and on
A thousand people here have come to see the show
As 'round and 'round you go
So ballerina, dance
Dance, dance!
Whirl ballerina
Once you said his love must wait its turn
You wanted fame instead
I guess that's your concern
We live and learn
And love is gone, ballerina, gone
So on with your career, you can't afford a backward glance
Dance on and on and on
A thousand people here have come to see the show
As 'round and 'round you go
So ballerina, dance
Dance

Balladen Om Herr Fredrik Åkare
Balladen Om Fredrik Akare
Composer(s): Cornelis Vreeswijk
Performer(s): Cornelis Vreeswijk
Vart är du på väg, Fredrik Åkare?
Ingenstans, ingenstans
Då kan vi ta varann i hand
och trå en lustig dans
För jag är ensam på min stig
och ganska tveksam om
vart denna dag mig bära skall
/:och varifrån jag kom:/
Käre Fredrik, sa jag, ge mig nu
ett uppriktigt svar
Säg mig, var är guldringen som du
fordom alltid bar?
Nog hade jag en ring en gång
sa Fredrik, det är visst och sant
Den gick jag mig till stampen med
/:och lämnade i pant:/
Fredrik, sa jag, det finns många
som är pankare än du
Men svara mig nu uppriktigt
Vad säger din fru?
Nog hade jag en fru en gång
sa Fredrik, det är sant och visst
Men henne har jag skilts ifrån
/:sen jag såg dig sist:/
Jag kommer just, sade Fredrik
från en plats där sorgen bor
En kvalens sal, en vredens borg
ett advokatkontor
Där skrev jag på ett dokument
och nu är allt förbi
Nu går jag mig mot ingenstans
/:för nu är jag fri:/
Jag har mistat allt jag hade
i livets grottekvarn
Hon har tagit våra möbler
hon har tagit våra barn
Hon har tagit alla bilarna
i mitt åkeri
Hon har tagit allihopa
/:det ger jag tusan i:/
Vart är du på väg, broder Fredrik?
Ingenstans, ingenstans
Jag går här på trottoaren
som i dimma, som i trance
Jag har blivit hitförpassad
för slarv och fylleri
Nu får det bära vart det vill
men nu är jag fri, ja nu är jag fri

Lady Bird
Lady Bird
Performer(s): Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazelwood
I've been where the eagle flies
Rode his wings 'cross autumn skies
Kissed the sun, touched the moon
But he left me much too soon.
His lady bird...He left his lady bird
Lady bird come on down
I'm here waiting on the ground
Lady bird I'll treat you good
Aw, lady bird I wish you would
You lady bird...pretty lady bird
Lightning flashed across the sky
The night he taught me how to fly
The sun came up and then I found
Too soon he let his lady down
His lady bird...I'm his lady bird
Lady bird come on down
I'm here waiting on the ground
Lady bird I'll treat you good
Aw, lady bird I wish you would
You lady bird...pretty lady bird
Winter lives in my heart
In the times we're apart
Summer sings a song or two
When he says "I love you true"
My lady bird...yeah, I'm his lady bird
Lady bird come on down
I'm here waiting on the ground
Lady bird I'll treat you good
Aw, lady bird I wish you would
You lady bird...Pretty lady bird (I,m your lady bird)
You're a lady bird (Yes, I'm a lady bird)
You're too much you little bird

Ballade Pour Un Sourire
Ballade Pour Un Sourire
Composer(s): Gérard Bourgeois - Jean-Max Rivière
Performer(s): Sylvie Vartan
Je t'ai attendu presque toute une année
Et maintenant tu es là
Si fragile encore que j'ai peur de bouger
Quand tu t'endors dans mes bras
Nous allons passer beaucoup de temps
L'un près de l'autre à essayer
De nous comprendre de nous aimer
Et bientôt tu verras
La première fleur comme elle sera jolie à ton regard étonné
Et je sais déjà qu'après l'avoir cueillie tu viendras me la donner
Tu connaîtras la pluie et le vent
Et les matins ensoleillés les déceptions et l'amitié
Et puis un jour viendra
Où tu partiras, sans me le demander puisque la vie est ainsi
Je ne pourrai pas m'empêcher de pleurer comme tu le fais aujourd'hui
Mais il me suffit en attendant de ton sourire
Pour effacer tous les nuages de mes pensées
Qui ne sont que pour toi
Je t'ai attendu presque toute une année
Et maintenant tu es là
Je t'ai attendu presque toute une année
Et maintenant tu es là...

Lady (You Bring Me Up)
Composer(s): Harold Hudson - Shirley King - William King
Performer(s): The Commodores
and multiple other artists
Lady - you bring me up when I'm down
Maybe you're gonna change my life around
You came to me when I was lonely and no one cared
You made me see that I was only just runnin' scared
I saw your face and somethin' told me you were the one
You smiled at me and now I see: My life's begun
Lady - you brought me in from out the rain
Maybe me life will never be the same
Once I was filled with desperation - a solitary man
You gave me hope and inspiration like only true love can
Now I believe in what you're sayin' - I'm ten feet tall
This love don't need no explainin' - we've got it all
Lady - you bring me up when I'm down ...
Lady - you bring me up when I'm down ...
Lady - you bring me up when I'm down ...

Ballade Pour Un Fou
Ballade Pour Un Fou
Composer(s): Julien Clerc
Performer(s): Julien Clerc
Tu vois, je suis planté, planté planté
Au milieu du désert
Dont mes rêves sont faits
Des enfants astronautes gonflent mon cœur
Pour le voir s'envoler au milieu des splendeurs
Tu vois, je suis planté, planté planté
Au cœur de Buenos Aires, la ville aux yeux fardés
Au fond de cet estuaire, où viennent les pétroliers
Donner à la rivière, un long baiser salé
{Refrain:}
Loco, Loco, Loco
C'est le nom qu'ils me donnent
Et qui veut dire fou
Et dans ce monde
Où tous les hommes se croient debout
Je suis le seul à me vanter
De me traîner à tes genoux
Tu vois, je suis planté, planté, planté
Dans un ciel de réglisse, j'ai jeté mes dragées
C'est ta croix du sud que je viens de semer
Et qui du fond du ciel étoile ton sommeil
Tu vois, je suis planté, planté, planté
Le souffle du bandonéon, avale mes poignets
Les cils des feux rouges clignotent sans arrêt
Pour me faire chanter, me taire ou bien voler
{Refrain}
Tu vois, je suìs planté, planté, planté...
