River (Joni Mitchell)
River
Composer(s): Joni Mitchell
First release by: Joni Mitchell - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists
It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'm going to make a lot of money
Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
Oh I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
I made my baby cry
He tried hard to help me
He put me at ease
Lord, he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
That I ever had
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
Oh I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
I made my baby say goodbye
It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

Schön Ist Der Morgen
(Adapted from: Morning Has Broken - 1971)
(Spanish Version: Ha Roto El Alba)
Composer(s): Eleanor Farjeon; Gisela Zimber
Performer(s): Nana Mouskouri
Schön ist der Morgen
Schau aus dem Fenster
Ganz neu geboren
Schenkt er den Tag
Nimm ihn und freu dich
Danke und denke
Wieder kommt für mich
Ein neuer Tag
Schön ist der Morgen
Singen die Lerchen
Ganz ohne Sorgen
Freu'n sie sich nur
Nimm dir ein Beispiel
Sei mehr zufrieden
Oft willst du zuviel
Frag mal warum
Schön ist der Morgen
Sonne und Regen
Du bist geborgen
Solang du glaubst
Kommen und gehen
Können die Stunden
Alles verstehen
Kann der Mensch nie
Schön ist der Morgen
Fang wieder neu an
Gestern und Sorgen
Alt und vorbei
Danke und denke
Das die Welt schön ist
Darum verschenke
Nie deinen Tag

Ringing The Bells For Jim
Ringing The Bells For Jim
Composer(s): June Carter Cash; Jan Howard
Performer(s): Johnny Cash
The Father heard church bells at midnight
A wrong time for church bells to chime
He went to the tower, found a little girl there
Said, "Why ring the bells at this time?"
"I'm just ringing the bells for Jim, please Father
Ringing the bells for Jim
I'm sorry I'm cryin', but my brother Jim's dyin'
So I'm ringing the bells for Jim"
"Please father pray for him this Christmas
He's sick and he's in so much pain
The doctors all say he'll be gone any day
So I must ring the bells again"
"I'm just ringing the bells for Jim, please Father
Ringing the bells for Jim
I'm sorry I'm cryin', but my brother Jim's dyin'
So I'm ringing the bells for Jim"
On the day after Christmas she brought him
Said "Father, heed little Jim
You see he got well when he heard the church bells
I was ringing the bells for Jim"
"I'm just ringing the bells for Jim, please Father
Ringing the bells for Jim
I'm sorry I'm cryin', but my brother Jim's dyin'
So I'm ringing the bells for Jim"

Schieß Die Lichter Aus
Schieß Die Lichter Aus
Performer(s): Ulla Meinecke
Der Raum platzt vor Leuten und kalter Musik
Wieder ein neues Glassplitterstück
Du lachst wie ein Kind und lehnst in der Tür
Ich will nicht mehr tanzen, ich will zu Dir
Die Luft is zum Schneiden und klebt auf der Haut
Und der Typ neber mir tratscht viel zu laut
Mir ist so danach romantisch zu sein
Ich will mit Dir flüstern
Doch dazu müßt ich schrein
Schieß die Lichter aus
Schick sie alle nach Haus
Ich will jetzt keine Musik
Nur Deinen blonden Blick
Ich will dich lachen sehn
Jeder flirtet mit jedem, jetzt ist es soweit
Und keiner glaubt keinem, alle wissen Bescheid
Eisen glühn im feuer, und da brennt die Luft
Ich wart nur noch drauf, daß noch jemand ruft
Der Raum platzt vor Leuten und kalter Musik
Wieder ein neues Glassplitterstück
Du lachst wie ein Kind und lehnst in der Tür
Ich will nicht mehr tanzen, ich will zu Dir
Schieß die Lichter aus....

Ring Those Christmas Bells
Ring Those Christmas Bells
Composer(s): Marvin Fisher; Gus Levene
Performer(s): Peggy Lee
and multiple other artists
Some folks like to hear a Christmas song
But I like Christmas bells that go ding dong
Jingle-jangle, ding-a-ling, or just bing-bong
I love to hear 'em ring
Oh, ring those Christmas bells
Ring those Christmas bells
While they chime we'll have a happy time
So ring those Christmas bells
Up above the stars are clear and bright
While all around the snow is soft and white
Santa and his reindeer soon will be in sight
And you will hear him sing
Oh, ring those Christmas bells
Ring those Christmas bells
While they chime we'll have a happy time
So ring those Christmas bells
For the music of an open sleigh
When ev'ry jolly jingle seems to say
"Happy, happy, happy, happy holiday!"
Come on and join the fun!
Oh, ring those Christmas bells
Ring those Christmas bells
While they chime we'll have a happy time
So ring those Christmas bells

Performer(s): Francis
Schat wat kost een zoen van jou
Vertel het me heel gauw
Mijn liefste
Als ik van je hou
Wordt jij mijn vrouw mijn liefste
Schat wat kost een zoen van jou

Mijn liefste
Jij maakt me bang want het duurt zo lang
Geef vlug een zoentje op mijn wang
Ik kan je niet weerstaan
Ik wil je nooit laten gaan
Want al ben ik nu nog vrij
Ik wil jou liefde voor mij
Schat wat kost een zoen van jou
Vertel het me heel gauw mijn liefste
Toon me voortaan de juiste baan
Die we samen zullen gaan
Ik wil met je leven
En je alles geven
Waar doe me toch geen pijn
Door alleen te zijn
Schat wat kost een zoen van jou
Vertel het me heel gauw mijn liefste
Ga met me mee mijn toverfee
Naar een hemel voor ons twee

Renta Santa
Renta Santa
Performer(s): Chris Hill
Here is a news flash!
We have just heard that Father Christmas
is unable to do his rounds this year
due to industrial trouble in Greenland
Therefore, a replacement must be found!
We are going over now to the office of Renta Santa
Miss Singleton, who has actually applied for the job?
"Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, Alice Cooper, Elton John"
Same old faces, hey?
Have you any suggestions of your own?
"Take a chance with someone new, you'll see"
Good idea
Now, here's a face we all know
Football star, Georgie Best
George, what have you been doing lately?
"Sitting in the sun, waiting for a senorita to show"
Splendid!
And now we have Mr. Edward Heath
Sir, we know you're out of work right now, but
Don't you think you look rather foolish standing there
In a red costume and false beard?
"It's just a silly phase I'm going through"
Tell us, what did Margaret Thatcher say when
She saw you dressed like this?
"She stood there laughing"
Oh dear, well here's someone whose not been laughing
Too much either; rock star and tax exile, Rod Stewart
"I'm an ordinary guy, and my pockets are empty"
Rod, what did you tell the tax department
When you returned to this country?
"I can't give you anything"
But Rod, we all have to pay tax
"But not half as much as I do"
Really?
"No, not half as much as I do"
Over here, we are very fortunate to have the
Man who trains Santa's reindeers
Sir, we understand you actually speak to these animals
What do you say to them?
"Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh"
And what is their reply?
"What chu, chu, chu, chu"
What does that mean exactly?
"That means, I offer my love to you"
Amazing!
And now we've got Mr. Spock from Star Fleet Command!
How did you get here?
"Look at me, can't you see, I'm beaming all over?"
Oh, and now they're ready with the results
They are about to be announced
And the man whose been chosen is Mr. Uri Geller
Well, Uri, this is really wonderful
Everyone's delighted!
Now, I'm sure we'd all like to see a party trick before you leave
What are you going to do for us?
"I took my magic wand, and 'poof', I have me fun!"
And look what's happening here
It's Bendy!
"Hey, what does?
What's happening"
Hey! You've bust me record player!
Player.....player.....player.....player.......

Und wenn der Mond verweht im Wind

Remember life is never as it seems. Dream
Long ago, far away
Life was clear, close your eyes

Agrippée à mon bras
Par tes ongles blessé

She's Got It
She's Got It
Composer(s): Little Richard; John Marascalco
Performer(s): Little Richard
There's a sweet little girl that lives down the street
Some people think she's square but I think she's sweet
You can see her every day, strollin' up and down the way
Lookin' so pretty and this is what I say
She's got it
Ooh baby, she's got it
Ooooh baby, she's got it
I can't do without her
Big blue eyes, long black hair
Dimpled cheeks and she's no square
Ruby lips, shapely hips
When she walks down the street all the cats flip
She loves to sing, hot rod queen
She's real gone in everything
She loves to sing, hot rod queen
She's real gone in everything
When the music's hot, she loves to bop
She'll dance till the jukebox pop
She's got it
Ooh baby, she's got it
Ooooh baby, she's got it
I can't do without her
Yeah, she's got it
Oh-oh, she's got it
Ooooh, she's got it
Yeah-yeah, she's got it
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Yeah-yeah-yeah, hey
Aaaaaaaahhh...

Scenes From An Italian Restaurant
Scenes From An Italian Restaurant
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel
and multiple other artists
A bottle of white, a bottle of red
Perhaps a bottle of rose instead
We'll get a table near the street
In our old familiar place
You and I--face to face
A bottle of red, a bottle of white
It all depends on your appetite
I'll meet you any time you want
In our Italian Restaurant
Things are okay with me these days
Got a good job, got a good office
Got a new wife, got a new life
And the family's fine
We lost touch long ago
You lost weight
I did not know
You could ever look so good after
So much time
I remember those days hanging out
At the village green
Engineer boots, leather jackets
And tight blue jeans
Drop a dime in the box play the
Song about New Orleans
Cold beer, hot lights
My sweet romantic teenage nights
Brenda and Eddie were the popular steadies
And the king and the queen of the prom
Riding around with the car top down and the radio on
Nobody looked any finer
Or was more of a hit at the Parkway Diner
We never knew we could want more than that out of life
Surely Brenda and Eddie would always know how to survive
Brenda and Eddie were still going steady in the summer of '75
When they decided the marriage would be at the end of July
Everyone said they were crazy
"Brenda you know you're much too lazy
Eddie could never afford to live that kind of life"
But there we were wavin' Brenda and Eddie goodbye
They got an apartment with deep pile carpet
And a couple of paintings from Sears
A big waterbed that they bought with the bread
They had saved for a couple of years
They started to fight when the money got tight
And they just didn't count on the tears
They lived for a while in a very nice style
But it's always the same in the end
They got a divorce as a matter of course
And they parted the closest of friends
Then the king and the queen went back to the green
But you can never go back there again
Brenda and Eddie had had it already
By the summer of '75
From the high to the low
To the end of the show
For the rest of their lives
They couldn't go back to the greasers
The best they could do was pick up the pieces
We always knew they would both find a way to get by
That's all I heard about Brenda and Eddie
Can't tell you more than I told you already
And here we are wavin' Brenda and Eddie goodbye
A bottle of red, and bottle of white
Whatever kind of mood you're in tonight
I'll meet you anytime you want
In our Italian Restaurant

Redneck gifts?
Yea, you know, like
if you buy your wife earrings that double as fishing lures
Or, if you can burp the entire chorus of "Jingle Bells"
Perhaps if you think "The Nutcracker" is something you did off a high-dive
Or, if you've ever misspelled something in Christmas lights
Or, if you leave cold beer and pickled eggs for Santa Claus
What's wrong with that?
I didn't say anything wrong with it...
It's hard to beat...
Twelve-pack of Bud

Tu nel tuo letto caldo, io per strada al freddo
ma non è questo che mi fa triste
Qui fuori dai tuoi sogni l'amore sta morendo
ognuno pensa solo a se stesso
Scende la pioggia ma che fa
crolla il mondo addosso a me
per amore sto morendo!
Amo la vita più che mai
appartiene solo a me
voglio viverla per questo!
E basta con i sogni, ora sei tu che dormi
ora il dolore io non conosco
Quello che mi dispiace è quel che imparo adesso
ognuno pensa solo a se stesso
Scende la pioggia...

Jako Jesus czystem sercem oddycha
Chwala na wysokosci

Scatterbrain
Composer(s): Khan Keene; Carl Bean; Frankie Masters; Johnny Burke
Performer(s): Frankie Masters
and multiple other artists
Everyone who sees you says, fascinating face
Heavens, what a figure and, goodness me, what grace
Everyone who meets you must lose his heart, I find
Then he's sure to lose his mind
You're as pleasant as the morning
And refreshing as the rain
Isn't it a pity that you're such a scatterbrain
When you smile it's so delightful
When you talk it's so insane
Still it's charming chatter, scatterbrain
I know I'll end up apoplectic
But there's nothing I can do
It's just the same as being in a hurricane
And though my life will be too hectic
I'm so much in love with you
Nothing else can matter
You're my darling scatterbrain
You're as gay as New Year parties
You're as sweet as sugarcane
But when you get serious, you're such a scatterbrain
When we dance I think it's heaven
Till about the third refrain
Then you start your patter, scatterbrain
Perhaps I'm much too analytic
But I'm up the well-known tree
I've tried to understand your double-talk in vain
Yet, won't you please forgive your critic
'Cause you mean so much to me
Nothing else can matter
You're my darling scatterbrain

Performer(s): Patti Page
It's winter, it's winter the snow fell last night
It fell on the tree tops and painted them white
The children are playing their faces are bright
Oh what a wonderful sight
Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes falling down from the sky
How I wonder where you come from as you flutter by
Did winter's magic hand send you down to bless the land
Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes falling down from the sky
Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes hello and goodbye
The pond by the old mill is covered with ice
The fires are glowing and everything's nice
The whole world is smiling and bundled up tight
Oh what a wonderful sight
Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes falling down from the sky
How I wonder where you come from as you flutter by
Did winter's magic hand send you down to bless the land
Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes falling down from the sky
Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes hello and goodbye
Pretty snow flakes
Pretty snow flakes hello and goodbye

She's Gonna Win Your Heart
She's Gonna Win Your Heart
Composer(s): Billy Burnette; Hank Williams
Performer(s): Eddy Raven
I know just how you feel
When you see my baby dance across the floor
And I know you'd like to steal her love
I know I've been there before
I can see the way she's lookin' at you
I'm runnin' out of time
I used to feel the same way too
When I was tryin' to make her mine
She's gonna win your heart
She always gets her way
She knew right from the start
How to play her part
She's gonna win your heart
She can be so very nice
Melt you down like ice
With all her charms
Pick you up to paradise
I've been there once or twice in her arms
When my baby's running free
Takes a stronger man than me
To hold her down
Maybe you've got what she needs
So it's your turn to try and stop her runnin' round
She's gonna win your heart
She always gets her way
She knew right from the start
How to play her part
She's gonna win your heart
If I thought the time was right
I would try with all my might
To make her stay
But I won't put up a fight
'Cause I know she don't love me anyway
And I know ...
And I know she's gonna win your heart
She always gets her way
She knew right from the start
How to play her part
She's gonna win your heart
Yes I know she's gonna win your heart
She knows just what to say
She knew right from the start
How to play her part
