Soeur Adèle


Soeur Adèle
(English Version: Sister Adele)
Performer(s): Jeanine Deckers (aka Soeur Sourire)



C'était une guitare espagnole
Née d'un bouleau ou d'un sapin
Dans une boutique de Barcelone
Un beau matin du mois de juin
Au fond du coeur une étiquette
Indique son identité
Et sa parole chaude et discrète
Était bien douce à écouter

Dans une vitrine du vieux Bruxelles
On la suspendit par le cou
Puis certain jour une demoiselle
S'en vint l'acheter pour quelques sous
Adieu flamencos chauds d'Espagne
Andalousie et corridas
Jolie guitare, ma compagne
Adèle tu t'appeleras

Pour répondre à la voix divine
Qui l'invitait à sa moisson
La pérsonnelle - c'est moi - quitta la ville
Pour un couvent des environs
Adèle partit dans les bagages
Et commença son noviciat
Joyeuse et pleine de courage
Et chanta Dieu à pleine voix

Sur tous les tons de toute son âme
Adèle s'est vouée au Seigneur
Et ses chansons partout proclament
Que servir Dieu c'est son bonheur
Derrière les harpes et les cithares
Qui forment l'orchestre des cieux
On entendra, humble guitare
Un jour, Adèle, chez le Bon Dieu

Looking For Pussy


Looking For Pussy
Composer(s): Shel Silverstein
Performer(s): Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show



(You gotta start each day some)
(Lookin' for pussy
Lookin' for pussy
Lookin' for pussy
Lookin' for pussy)
I just gotta see her and tell her I need her
Hurtin without her
Dreamin about her
Wonderin' what she's gonna do
And who she's doin it to

(Lookin' for pussy
Lookin' for pussy
Lookin' for pussy
We're looking for pussy)

Tell her my story
Say that I'm sorry
Just gotta find her
Say I'm behind her
In anything ... right or wrong
She'll just take me along.-

(Looking for pussy)
Take me along ...
(Lookin' for pussy)
C'mon take me along ...
(Lookin' for pussy)
C'mon take me along ...
(Lookin' for pussy)
I gotta get my pussy!
(Lookin' for pussy)

I gotta go upstairs and get me shooooes ...

Samson


Samson
Composer(s): Penny Els - Kick Dandy
First performance by: Emly Starr - 1981



Je houdt veel van veroveringen
Van liefde maar dan zonder trouw
Je weet wel wat je moet verzinnen
Voor ieder mooie vrouw

Oh playboy, 'k zou je graag vergeten
Oehoeh, niemand kan je liefde geven

Samson
Honderden verhalen zonder een Delilah
Samson
Vergeet je wilde haren
Zoek je een Delilah
Samson

Je geeft meer om je rare vrienden
Waarmee je luchtkastelen bouwt
Bij vrienden wil je vreugde vinden
Al hou ik echt van jou

Oh playboy, ik wil met je leven
Oehoeh, niemand kan je liefde geven

Samson
Honderden verhalen zonder een Delilah
Samson
Vergeet je wilde haren
Zoek je een Delilah
Samson

De liefde doet me iets teveel
'k Ben je Delilah
Als jij dat wil
'k Verlang zo naar jou
De ware Delilah
Als jij dat wil
Je enige vrouw

Oh playboy, ik wil met je leven
Oehoeh, geen ander kan je liefde geven

Samson
Honderden verhalen zonder een Delilah
Samson
'k Grijp je wilde haren graag
Ga met me mee
Samson, I love you
Samson...

Lookin' For Love


Lookin' For Love
Composer(s): Wanda Mallette - Bob Morrison - Pat Ryan
First release by: Johnny Lee - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists



Well, I spent a lifetime lookin' for you
Single bars and good time lovers were never true
Playin' a fools game, hopin' to win
Tellin' those sweet lies and losin' again

I was lookin' for love
In all the wrong places
Lookin' for love in too many faces
Searchin' their eyes, lookin' for traces
Of what I'm dreamin' of
Hopin' to find a friend and a lover
I'll bless the day I discover
Another heart lookin' for love

I was alone then, no love in sight
An' I did everything I could to get me through the night
Don''t know where it started or where it might end
I'd turn to a stranger just like a friend

I was lookin' for love
In all the wrong places
Lookin' for love in too many faces
Searchin' their eyes, lookin' for traces
Of what I'm dreamin' of
Hopin' to find a friend and a lover
I'll bless the day I discover
Another heart lookin' for love

You came a knockin' at my heart's door
You're everything I've been lookin' for

No more lookin' for love
In all the wrong places
Lookin' for love in too many faces
Searchin' their eyes, lookin' for traces
Of what I'm dreamin' of
Now that I found a friend and a lover
God bless the day I discovered you

Oh you, lookin' for love
In all the wrong places
(Lookin' for love) in too many faces
Searchin' their eyes, lookin' for traces
Of what I'm dreamin' of
Now that I've found a friend and a lover
God bless the day I discovered you
Oh you, lookin' for love
In all the wrong places ...

Soul On Fire


Soul On Fire
Composer(s): Lavern Baker
Performer(s): Lavern Baker



Well I could play with Tom, Dick, and Harry
but for me you're the only one
Who makes me me shiver,
makes me tingle,
and who brings my loving down

I played the love game before I met him
It's a game I've always won
but now you set my soul on fire and I really had my fun

With other boyfriends, the good-time men friends
I still had to walk this road all by myself
I was their play girl, a careless gay girl
but I put them all on the shelf

I found my true love with you forever
and my life has just begun
cause now you set my soul on fire
and I really had my fun

Good bye to play boys
those hey hey hey boys
good bye to everyone but you my love
no more heart aches no more heart breaks
I swear by all the stars above,
well on my soul, my love, my heart
I'll miss you darling from now on
Cause now you set my soul on fire and I really had my fun

Soeur Anne


Soeur Anne
Composer(s): Michel Emer
Performer(s): Edith Piaf



Sœur Anne, ne vois-tu rien venir?

Je vois des soldats couverts d'armes
Tout prêts à mourir et à tuer
Partout, je ne vois que des larmes
Le monde semble s'y habituer
Je vois, plus violente que la peste
La haine couvrir l'horizon
Les hommes se déchirent, se détestent
Frontières, mitrailleuses, prisons
L'amour, qui n'a plus rien à faire
Viens de nous quitter à son tour
Sur terre, il était solitaire
L'amour a besoin de l'amour

Sœur Anne, ne vois-tu rien venir?

Je vois des enfants sans leur mère
Je vois des parents sans enfants
Et des paysans sans leurs terres
Je vois des terres sans paysans
Je vois des grandes maisons vides
Et de grands vides dans les maisons
Des gens au visage livide
Qui marchent sans chanter de chansons
Des hommes qui essaient de sourire
Des femmes au regard si peureux
Des vieux qui ne savent plus rire
Des jeunes qui sont déjà vieux

Sœur Anne, ne vois-tu rien venir?

Je vois une grande lumière
Qui semble venir de très loin
Je vois un enfant et sa mère
Mon Dieu, qu'ils sont loin, qu'ils sont loin...
Voici qu'ils s'approchent de la terre
L'enfant a grandi, je le vois
Il vient partager nos misères
Déjà, il apporte sa croix
Bientôt, sa divine colère
Chassera le démon pour toujours
Bientôt reviendra sur la terre
La vie, la pitié et l'amour

Sœur Anne, quand va-t-il revenir?...

Io Senza Te


Io Senza Te
Composer(s): N. Martinetti - P. Reber
First performance by: Peter, Sue & Marc - 1981



Dopo la tempesta camminiamo un po'
Sulla sabbia pesta chiacchieriamo un po'
Ho sbagliato io, hai sbagliato tu
Quel che è stato è stato, non parliamone più

Io senza te, cosa farei
Io non respiro se tu non ci sei
Io senza te, oh ... cosa sarei
Una farfalla che non vola più

Prenderti nel vento come un anno fa
Stesso sentimento, stessa intensità
E trovar parole che non dissi mai
Mentre il sole muore sul mio cuore stai

Io senza te, cosa farei
Della mia vita e dei giorni miei
Io senza te, oh ... come farei
Amore mio t'inventerei

Io senza te, cosa farei, oh ...
Io senza te, oh ... come farei
Amore mio t'inventerei

Amore mio t'inventerei

Un Banc, Un Arbre, Une Rue


Un Banc, Un Arbre, Une Rue
Composer(s): Jean-Pierre Bourtayre; Yves Desca
First release by: Séverine - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists



On a tous un banc, un arbre ou une rue
Où l'on a bercé nos rêves
On a tous un banc, un arbre ou une rue
Une enfance trop brève

Un jour ou l'autre il faut partir
Pour se construire un avenir, un avenir
Et c'est l'inoubliable instant
Où l'on rend ses habits d'enfant, d'enfant

Chacun s'envole rempli d'espoir
Sur le chemin qu'il s'est choisi, qu'il s'est choisi
Vers la richesse ou vers la gloire
Pourtant quel que soit notre but, notre but

Un jour ou l'autre il faut partir
Pour se construire un avenir, un avenir
Et c'est l'inoubliable instant
Où l'on rend ses habits d'enfant, d'enfant

Chacun dans son coin d'horizon
Ne défend que ses ambitions, ses ambitions
Même si nous ne partageons rien
Que nous reste-t-il en commun, en commun?

Un jour ou l'autre il faut partir
Pour se construire un avenir, un avenir
Et c'est l'inoubliable instant
Où l'on rend ses habits d'enfant, d'enfant

La la la la la...

Look Who It Is


Look Who It Is
Composer(s): Michael Hawker - John Schroeder
Performer(s): Helen Shapiro



Look who it is
Fancy meeting you suddenly
Well look who it is
I can see you remember me

Yes I wanted to believe
I just didn’t need you
Then started feeling blue

Look who it is
It’s me and I still love you

Well look who it is
Did you think I’d forgotten you
I realize, that you may
Have found, someone new

But I just can not pretend
That I haven’t missed you
Why did I let you go

Look who it is
It’s me and I love you so

Baby now I realize
I made a big mistake
There are tear drops in my eyes
And my hear is about to break

Well look who it is
With his hand reaching out for mine
Well look who it is
Everything’s gonna turn out fine
Oh I have waited soo long
And prayed that id meet you
You with all your chores

Look who it is
And you’re in my arms
Look who it is
And you’re in my arms
Look who it is
And you’re in my arms

Look What You've Done To Me


Look What You've Done To Me
Composer(s): David Foster - Boz Scaggs
Performer(s): Boz Scaggs



Hope they never end this song
This could take us all night long
I looked at the moon and I felt blue
Then I looked again and I saw you
Eyes like fire in the night
Bridges burning with their light
Now I want to spend the whole night through
And Honey, Yes, I'd like to spend it all on you

Love, look what you've done to me
Never thought I'd fall again so easily
Oh, love, you wouldn't lie to me
Leading me to feel this way ...

They might fade and turn to stone
Let's get crazy all alone
Hold me closer than you'd ever dare
Close your eyes and I'll be there
After all is said and done
After all you are the one
Take me up your stairs and through the door
Take me where we don't care anymore ...

Love, look what you've done to me
Never thought I'd fall again so easily
Oh, love, you wouldn't lie to me ... would you
Leading me to feel this way ...

Love, look what you've done to me
Never thought I'd fall again so easily
Oh, love, you wouldn't lie to me
Leading me to feel this way ...

Six Roses


Six Roses
Composer(s): Georges Coulonges; Michèle Auzépy
Performer(s): Annie Cordy



On est sam'di ce soir
Et moi au bout du comptoir
Du comptoir du p'tit bar
Du bar de Monsieur Edouard
Je pense... je pense ...

Les copains m'appell'nt "Six roses"
Et je ne comprends pas pourquoi
Pourquoi, pourquoi, pourquoi
Bien sûr ils sav'nt que j'aime les fleurs
Mais pourquoi justement "Six roses"
Plutôt que une ou deux ou trois
Les copains m'appell'nt "Six roses"
Pourquoi m'ont-ils donné ce nom
Ce nom, ce nom, ce nom
Bien sûr ils savent que j'aime les fleurs
Mais pourquoi justement les roses
Plutôt que les rhododendrons

Et il y a Monsieur Edouard
Qui derrière son comptoir
Me dit que sûrement
C'était à cause de mes parents
Ça m'trouble... ça m'trouble...

Papa s'appelait pas "Six roses"
Puisqu'on l'appelait "Bois sans peur"
Sans peur, sans peur, sans peur
Grand-père on l'app'lait "la liqueur"
Tonton, c'était "l'irrigateur"
J'vois pas l'rapport avec les fleurs
Mais s'ils veul'nt m'app'ler "Six roses"
Après tout j'peux bien les laisser
Laisser, laisser, laisser
Bien sûr ils savent que j'aime les fleurs
Mais pourquoi justement les roses
Plutôt que les rhododendrons

Look What We Made (When We Made Love)


Look What We Made (When We Made Love)
Composer(s): Dave Loggins - Russell Smith
Performer(s): Jonathan Edwards



You always said you never needed anyone else but me
Now someone's come along and changed your mind
`bout all that love can be

Now I don't even mind the way he takes up all you time
I even think it's kind of sweet that he reminds you of me
And it bring a tear to my eye and a smile to my face
'Cause I never felt so much love as when you hold him and say ...

Oh baby look what we made when we made love
All by ourselves with some help from above
In the middle of the night we really did something right
Oh look what we made when we made love.

From the first time we met I knew I'd always give my love to you
And the look that you gave me in return made all my dreams come true
This new dream that we share has your eyes and my hair
So healthy and strong with a mind of his own

And I thank the Lord everyday for our brand new family
And to think it all started with just you and me

Oh baby look what we made when we made love
All by ourselves with some help from above
In the middle of the night we really did something right
Oh look what we made when we made love

When we made love

Musik


Musik
First performance by: Marianne Mendt - 1971



Überall, wo ma hinschaut
Machen die Leit Musik
Oft wird's verkauft als des, was gar net is

Dann aber wird's schee einpackt
Mit Liachter obendrauf
Und wird verschickt als Flucht ins Paradies

Net des Laicht, net der Glanz
Net die Show soll die Musik sein
Wie da Wind, wia a Traum
Soll's die Sprach der Phantasie und Freiheit sein

Die Sprach in der ma reden
Die reicht no lang net aus
Daß ma an andern sagen ka, was ma gespiat

Drum ham ma die Musik gemacht
Was anders wird's nie sei
Was rundherum ist, macht mi no verwirrt

Net des Liacht, net der Glanz
Net die Show soll die Musik sein
Wie da Wind, wia a Traum
Soll's die Sprach der Phantasie und Freiheit sein

Net des Liacht, net der Glanz
Net die Show soll die Musik sein
Wie da Wind, wia a Traum
Soll's die Sprach der Phantasie und Freiheit sein

Look what I’ve got, look what you’ve got
