Stinker


Stinker
Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin
Performer(s): Elton John



Say what you will but I'm a stinker
I come crawling up out of my hole
Dirt in my toes, dirt up my nose
I'm a perfect curse to pest control

Seeds and weeds and muddy meals
Crawling around the earth
Down in the ground where the sun don't pound
I hibernate in English turf

Better believe it, I'm a stinker
Burning vermin stink
Watch me get as high as a heat wave honey
Tell me what you hound dogs think

Set in my styles with a beady eye
I got connections with the underground
Call me a common rodent boy
Sitting here safe and sound

Some mole hill mother sauntered by
Acting like the ace of spades
Don't give that cutey no reason to shoot me
When I'm living on the eggs she layed

Honey Child


Honey Child
Composer(s): Deadric Malone
Performer(s): Bobby "Blue" Bland;
Royal Crown Revue; Johnny Williams



Sometimes your love is just like honey
So sweet and wild-so sweet and wild
Sometimes your love is just like menthol
So cool and nice-so cool and nice
That's why I don't want no other lover
Nobody but you

Honey child, honey child

You got a funny little way
A way of teasing
Feels so right, yeah so right
You've got a way-such a way
Through the night, all through the night
That's why I don't want no other lovin'
Nobody but you

Honey child

You got a brand of lovin'
That sets my soul on fire
You got a brand of kissin'
That drives me wild
That's why I don't want no other lover

That's why I don't want no other lover
That's why I don't want no other lover
Say, that's why I don't want no other lover
Say, that's why I don't want no other lover, baby

Nomads In The Night


Nomads In The Night
Composer(s): Vytautas Diškevicius - Jeronimas Milius
First performance by: Jeronimas Milius - 2008



Through passing days, I close my eyes and feel silk burning me
Your skin, those gorgeous lips I've kissed so long ago
Tonight I'll try to rip out this aching heart, it's filled with you
It's filled with lonely pain – obey

Moon, I follow you in darkness
It seems we're nomads in the night
Your cold turns me into the heartless
Until the sunrise burning light brings down her sky blue shining eyes

This hollow day, like days before I walk through thousand smiles
And try to find the look that heals all wounds inside
But still I'm here at the world's edge falling like stone to you
Shining so high, alone – like me

Moon, I follow you in darkness
It seems we're nomads in the night
Your cold turns me into the heartless
Until the sunrise burning light

Seems we're nomads in the night
Your cold turns me into the heartless
Until the sunrise burning light brings down her sky blue shining eyes

Honey Boy


Honey Boy
Composer(s): Brian Holland; Lamont Dozier; Eddie Holland
Performer(s): Mary Wells; The Supremes



Chorus (x2):
He's my Honey Boy, my ever-lovin' Honey Boy
Mmm hmm hmm mmm, mmm hmm hmm mmm

Sweet kisses are his claim to fame
In my heart he'll always remain
True fine lovin' is his game
Honey Boy is his name
He's sugar, he's spice, he's everything that's nice

(chorus)

I'd never have another love this time
Than all the gold in the Fort Knox mine
My whole life he'll inspire
Loving him is my desire
Always near when I need him most
That's why I just love to boast

(chorus)

If you see me in my prettiest dress
Then for him I look my best
Nobody can take his love from me
Because he has lasting loyalty
He's sugar, he's spice, he's everything that's nice

(chorus)

(over backup singing of chorus):
He's sugar, he's spice, he's everything that's nice
Mmm hmm, mmm hmm, Honey Boy, Honey Boy
Sugar & spice, mmm hmm, mmm, hmm
Honey Boy, Honey Boy

Stilla Och Tyst
Composer(s): Owe Törnqvist
Performer(s): Ingvar Wixell



Stilla och tyst som nu
vid blånande hav
stilla och tyst som nu
din kärlek du gav mej
Kärlekens röda ros
svindlande skön
dej fann jag svalka hos
där ute på ön

Solen stack ner sin brand
havet drack ur dess blod
guldröda fiskar sam
djupt in i nattens flod
Stilla och tyst som nu
vid blånande hav
stilla och tyst som nu
din kärlek du gav

Honey


Honey Composer(s): Bobby Russell First release by: Bob Shane - 1968 Covered by multiple other artists Titles In Other Languages: 1968 - Tous Les Arbres Sont En Fleurs 1968 - Amore Mi Manchi 1968 - Kære 2003 - Mijn Liefste Ik Mis Je



See the tree, how big it´s grown, but friend, then it hasn´t been too long, it wasn´t big I laughed at her and she got mad, the first day that she planted it was just a twig Then the first snow came and she ran out to brush the snow away, so it wouldn´t die Came runnin´ in all excited, slipped and almost hurt herself, I laughed 'till I cried She was always young at heart, kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so I surprised her with a puppy, kept me up all Christmas Eve, two years ago And it would sure embarrass her when I came home from working late ´cause I would know That she´d been sittin´ there and cryin´ over some sad and silly late, late show And honey, I miss you and I´m bein´ good And I´d love to be with you, if only I could She wrecked the car and she was sad, and so afraid that I´d be mad, but what the heck Though I pretended hard to be, guess you could say she saw through me and hugged my neck I came home unexpectedly and found her crying needlessly in the middle of a day And it was in the early Spring, when flowers bloom and Robins sing, she went away And honey, I miss you and I´m bein´ good And I´d love to be with you, if only I could Yes, one day, while I wasn't home, while she was there and all alone, the angels came Now all I have is memories of Honey, and I wake up nights and call her name Now my life´s an empty stage, where Honey lived, and Honey played, and love grew up A small cloud passes overhead and cries down in the flower bed that Honey loved And see the tree, how big it´s grown But friend, it hasn´t been too long, it wasn´t big I laughed at her and she got mad, the first day that she planted it was just a twig ...

Walk with me
Take my hand

Never you mind if I
Don't tell strangers passing by

How it runs so deep and true
And yet it's so
'Cause don't you know, ohh

Still waters run deep

Still waters run deep

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Honesty


Honesty
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel



If you search for tenderness
it isn't hard to find
You can have the love you need to live
But if you look for truthfulness
You might just as well be blind
It always seems to be so hard to give

Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you

I can always find someone
to say they sympathize
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
But I don't want some pretty face
to tell me party lies
All I want is someone to believe

Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you

I can find a lover
I can find a friend
I can have security until the bitter end
Anyone can comfort me
with promises again
I know, I know

When I'm deep inside of me
don't be too concerned
I won't as for nothin' while I'm gone
But when I want sincerity
tell me where else can I turn
Because you're the one I depend upon

Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you

Have Some Fun


Have Some Fun
Composer(s): Stano Šimor - Gordon Pogoda
First performance by: Tereza Kerndlová - 2008



(We're gathered here today)

Sometimes we open a door to hope
Then baby we're hopin' the door won't close
We look all around, our future is standing there
Can't you see you're my future?

We really get along
Just like the sun goes with the sunshine
Like a grape goes with a grapevine
But you think in a blink that I'll be bad to you

If you wanna have some fun, don't run
Don't walk away when I'm your summer sun
If you wanna know real love and have some fun
Hmm... then baby don't run

I know your history makes you shy
Oh baby, it's no mystery why you fly
I'm not like the girls, the girls who just come and go
And with me you won't go solo

We really get along
Just like the stars go with the starshine
Like a ring goes with a bell chime
But you say I won't stay, you think I'll pull away

If you wanna have some fun, don't run
Don't turn away from me when I am the one
I'm the one who shakes your clouds away
Whenever rainy days make you insane

If you wanna have some fun, don't run
Don't walk away when I'm your summer sun
If you wanna know real love and have some fun
Hmm... then baby don't run

I'll even walk you to the moon
Walk down the beach all afternoon
I just wanna be your friend for fun, fun, fun

If you wanna have some fun, don't run
Don't walk away when I'm your summer sun
I'm the one who shakes your clouds away
Whenever rainy days make you insane

If you wanna have some fun, don't run
Don't walk away when I'm your summer sun
If you wanna know real love and have some fun
Hmm....then baby don't run

Honest Lullaby


Honest Lullaby
Composer(s): Joan Baez
Performer(s): Joan Baez



Early early in the game
I taught myself to sing and play
And use a little trickery
On kids who never favored me
Those were years of crinoline slips
And cotton skirts and swinging hips
And dangerously painted lips
And stars of stage and screen
Pedal pushers, ankle socks
Padded bras and campus jocks
Who hid their vernal equinox
In pairs of faded jeans
And slept at home resentfully
Coveting their dreams

And often have I wondered
How the years and I survived
I had a mother who sang to me
An honest lullaby

Yellow, brown, and black and white
Our Father bless us all tonight
I bowed my head at the football games
And closed the prayer in Jesus' name
Lusting after football heroes
tough Pachuco, little Neroes
Forfeiting my A's for zeroes
Futures unforeseen
Spending all my energy
In keeping my virginity
And living in a fantasy
In love with Jimmy Dean
If you will be my king, Jimmy, Jimmy
I will be your queen

And often have I wondered
How the years and I survived
I had a mother who sang to me
An honest lullaby

I travelled all around the world
And knew more than the other girls
Of foreign languages and schools
Paris, Rome and Istanbul
But those things never worked for me
The town was much too small you see
And people have a way of being
Even smaller yet
But all the same though life is hard
And no one promised me a garden
Of roses, so I did okay
I took what I could get
And did the things that I might do
For those less fortunate

And often have I wondered
How the years and I survived
I had a mother who sang to me
An honest lullaby

Now look at you, you must be growing
A quarter of an inch a day
You've already lived near half the years
You'll be when you go away
With your teddy bears and alligators
Enterprise communicators
All the tiny aviators head into the sky
And while the others play with you
I hope to find a way with you
And sometimes spend a day with you
I'll catch you as you fly
Or if I'm worth a mother's salt
I'll wave as you go by

And if you should ever wonder
How the years and you'll survive
Honey, you've got a mother who sings to you
Dances on the strings for you
Opens her heart and brings to you
An honest lullaby

Still The Same


Still The Same
(French Version: Toujours Le Même - 1981)
Composer(s): Bob Seger
First release by: Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band - 1978



You always won, everytime you placed a bet
You're still damn good, no one's gotten to you yet
Everytime they were sure they had you caught
You were quicker than they thought
You'd just turn your back and walk
You always said, the cards would never do you wrong
The trick you said was never piay the game too long
A gambler's share, the only risk that you would take
The only loss you could forsake
The only bluff you couldn't fake

And you're still the same
I caught up with you yesterday
Moving game to game
No one standing in your way
Turning on the charm
Long enough to get you by
You're still the same
You still aim high

There you stood, everybody watched you play
I just turned and walked away
I had nothing left to say

'Cause you're still the same
You're still the same
Moving game to game
Some thlngs never change
You're still the same

Homme Tout Petit
Composer(s): Jean-Michel Rivat; Frank Thomas
Performer(s): France Gall



Je suis la femme de Pablo de Rossignol
Celui qui chante sur ton balcon
Qui va qui vient qui vole
Dans ta maison il faisait bon je suis venue
Si je t'ai aimé 20 minutes n'en demande pas plus
Ne me retiens pas ici

Homme tout petit ton cœur je l'ai pris
Pourtant j'aime mieux siffler sur les cerisiers
Et homme tout petit un air de violon
Chante mes quatre saisons et voilà ma vie

Je suis la femme de Pablo de Rossignol
Et toi tu as quatre maisons un âne une carriole
Tu voudrais m'enfermer et me garder pour toi
À courir après les richesses as-tu beaucoup de joie
Que fais-tu donc de la vie

Homme tout petit ton cœur je l'ai pris
Pourtant j'aime mieux siffler sur les cerisiers
Et homme tout petit un air de violon
Chante mes quatre saisons et voilà ma vie

Homme tout petit ton cœur je l'ai pris
Pourtant j'aime mieux siffler sur les cerisiers
Et homme tout petit un air de violon
Chante mes quatre saisons et voilà ma vie

Me revoilà
Je n'ai pas su t'oublier

Tu es là
Plus belle que par le passé
Et tu si as si peu changé
Le temps a dû s'arrêter

Me revoilà

Où elles voulaient m'enfermer
Ces filles que j'ai pu aimer

Je suis le même

Malgré ma vie, oui, je t'aime

Je suis le même

Oui, je t'aime
Malgré ma vie, oui, je t'aime

Je n'ai même pas de regrets

Mon amour pour toi
Le temps n'y a pas touché

Oui, je t'aime

Pour toi et moi
Non, rien n'a changé

J'ai brûlé tous les ponts de mon passé
Pour n'y jamais retourner
Oh, tu vois je n'ai pas changé

Hommages


Hommages
Performer(s): Yves Duteil



Je voudrais rendre hommage à ceux qui m'ont fait vivre
En rallumant l'espoir un jour à l'horizon
Leur dédier à chacun mon âme comme un livre
Et leur offrir à tous un vers à ma façon
Celui qui m'a ouvert le plus grand de ses vins
Pour y noyer ma peine
Celui qui m'a cité les philosophes indiens
Dont l'âme était sereine

Celui qui sans jamais prononcer le mot Dieu
M'a fait croire en les hommes
Les deux qui m'ont appris à vivre plus heureux
Par l'amour que l'on donne

Celle qui m'a dit un jour que son amour pour moi
Serait toujours le même
Toi qui redessinais les lignes de ma main
Pour y glisser la tienne

Celui qui m'enseignait dans ma propre musique
A trouver l'harmonie
Celle qui m'a porté par delà ses blessures

Au sommet de ma vie
Celui qui m'a fait croire aux plus fous de mes rêves
En y rêvant aussi
Ont éclairé ma route en apaisant mes doutes
Et m'ont rendu la vie

Et si j'ai pu franchir les murs de mon silence
C'est grâce à tous les gens qui m'ont ouvert le cœur
Et fait la courte échelle au sortir de l'enfance
Pour m'aider à grandir en force et en bonheur

Et c'est en remontant les douloureux méandres
En revoyant parfois le chemin parcouru
Que j'ai pu mesurer ce qu'il reste à apprendre
Effacer les tristesses et tout le temps perdu

Je voulais rendre hommage à ceux qui m'ont fait vivre
En rallumant l'espoir un jour dans ma maison
Leur dédier à chacun mon âme comme un livre
Et leur offrir à tous un vers à ma façon

Hommage Au Passant D'un Soir


Hommage Au Passant D'un Soir
Composer(s): Yves Duteil
Performer(s): Yves Duteil



Quand je jouais de la guitare
Par plaisir ou par désespoir
Rue Dufour et Rue Vaugirard
J'arrêtais vers onze heures du soir
Je fouillais mes carnets d'adresses
Pour trouver deux sous de tendresse
Des amours que le petit jour emportait sans cesse
J'ignorais ce qu'était ma vie
J'ignorais, mais j'avais envie
De chanter pour être moins triste et moins seul aussi
Puis un soir, pour m'encourager
Un passant, surgi du passé
M'avait dit des mots qui depuis ne m'ont plus quitté

Quand je jouais de la guitare
Avenue de l'Observatoire
J'ignorais que dans ton regard
Le bonheur était provisoire
J'écrivais des chansons d'amour
Et chacun s'asseyait autour
Des sourires étaient ma récompense et tu souris toujours
J'ignorais ce qu'était ta vie
J'ignorais, mais j'avais envie
De chanter pour que tout soit bien quand le ciel est gris
Tout autour dans nos univers
Le printemps virait à l'hiver
Et les jours du calendrier passaient à l'envers

Puis j'ai joué de la guitare
Sur ton cœur et loin des regards
Tout le reste était dérisoire
Le présent perdait la mémoire
Je vivais mes chansons d'amour
J'avais peur de te perdre un jour
Et j'aimais les bruits de l'école en bas dans ta cour
J'ignorais si c'était ma vie
J'ignorais, mais j'avais envie
De continuer mon chemin vers le paradis
Je respirais tout doucement
J'avais peur d'éveiller le temps
Qui dormait dans nos souvenirs, et j'étais content

J'ignorais si c'était ma vie
J'ignorais, mais j'avais envie
De continuer mon chemin vers le paradis
Je respirais tout doucement
J'avais peur d'éveiller ce temps
Qui dormait dans nos souvenirs, et j'étais content
Je rêvais de m'en souvenir depuis si longtemps

Quand je jouais de la guitare
Pour te plaire ou pour t'émouvoir
En hommage au passant d'un soir
J'écrivais pour l'amour de l'art
J'ignorais que c'était ma vie
J'ignorais, mais j'avais envie
De chanter pour que tu sois fière de m'avoir choisi

Still The One


Still The One
Composer(s): Johanna Hall - John Hall
First release by: Orleans - 1976



We've been together since way back when
Sometimes I never want to see you again
But I want you to know, after all these years
You're still the one I want whisperin' in my ear

You're still the one I want to talk to in bed
Still the one that turns my head
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

I looked at your face every day
But I never saw it 'til I went away
When winter came, I just wanted to go
Deep in the desert, I longed for the snow

You're still the one that makes me laugh
Still the one that's my better half
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

You're still the one that makes me strong
Still the one I want to take along
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

Changing, our love is going gold
Even though we grow old, it grows new

You're still the one that I love to touch
Still the one and I can't get enough
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

You're still the one who can scratch my itch
Still the one and I wouldn't switch
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

You are still the one that makes me shout
Still the one that I dream about
We're still having fun, and you're still the one...

Hominy Grits


Hominy Grits
Composer(s): Smiley Burnette
Performer(s): Merle Travis;
and various other artists



Oh give me some hominy grits
And some red sugar-cured ham
Give me a great big bowl of gravy
I'd be such a happy man
If I could see the magnolias and azaleas in bloom
Let me up to the table and give me lots of elbow room

Then pass me that mammy fried okie
And some good old black eyed peas
Give me a hay rack full of biscuits
Make my coffee black if you please
If you feed me out of Dixie in a style so grand
You'll have yourself a happy man
Sorghum molasses
You'll have yourself a happy man

Now give me some of the hominy grits boy
Or shut my mouth with a great big slab of that sugar-cured ham
And about a half a gallon of this old thickened gravy
And brother you're gonna have yourself a mighty happy man
Well it seems like when you eat stuff like that
You can see the magnolias on them honeysuckles
Well you knows that they're in bloom
Oh set me down to that table, boy, scoot over
And give me lots of elbow room

Then pass me that mammy-fried okie
And some good old black eyed peas
Give me a hayrack full of hot biscuits
And make my coffee black if you please
If you feed me out of Dixie in a style oh so grand
You'll have yourself a happy man
Sorghum molasses
You'll have yourself a happy man
