Debo
Debo
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Debo escuchar otra vez la guitarra del barrio
y recorrer mi ciudad para reconocerla
debo volverme a encantar como supe de niño
y despertar como un dios que alargara la sienta
Debo leer en el mar la lección de lo inmenso
y renombrar el color que la vida me enseña
debo saber respirar un oxígeno fresco
y regresar a ese sol que contigo me espera
Debo aprender que mañana es un mundo habitable
lleno de instantes, promesas y besos y sueños
debo encontrar la semilla del hijo y del padre
debo bañarme otra vez en el claro deseo
en el hondo deseo, deseo
Debo ponerme a brillar con la luna entreabierta
y recostarme en la paz que humedece tu abrigo
debo saberle cantar a una noche tan nueva
como aquella que una vez estrenaras conmigo

Graag zou ik naar je gaan
Je bent hier ver vandaan
En voor de reis heb ik geen poen
Ik heb alleen pikante foto's van je hier (ohoh)
Daar sta je in je eentje op de pier (ahah)
Aan de Middelandse Zee
Uitdagend zeg je nee, want jij hebt werk'lijk alles mee
Het is niet moeilijk waar ik steeds aan denken moet (ohoh)
Want wat ik op die foto zie is goed (ahah)
Al is het maar papier, al ben je ver van hier, het doet me goed

Debbie Denise
Debbie Denise
Composer(s): Albert Bouchard; Patti Smith
Performer(s): Blue Öyster Cult
She kept the light open, all night long
For me to come home, and sing her my song
Oh Debbie Denise was true to me
She'd wait by the window, so patiently
And I'd come on home with my hair hanging down
She'd pin it up, and softly smile
But I was out rolling with my band
And I was out rolling with my band
I never realized, she was so undone
I didn't suspect she had no life of her own
She was so true but she was a she
She was just there I would just come
Stumbling in she'd show me she'd care
I didn't care cause she was just there
But I was out rolling with my band
And I was out rolling with my band
I wouldn't come home for weeks at a time
She wouldn't accept that she was free
Oh Debbie Denise was true to me
She'd wait by the window so bitterly
Wanting me to come close, I guess I noticed
I couldn't see, so what could I say
That more affection could I show her
I had only one thing on my mind
When I come to her, she'd pin back my hair
And out past the fields out the window I'd stare
Where I was out rolling with my band
I was out rolling with my band

Another Sleepless Night
Another Sleepless Night
Composer(s): Howard Greenfield - Neil Sedaka
Performer(s): Jimmy Clanton
and multiple other artists
The nights have been so lonely since you went away
I could not get to sleep try as I may
But now you're back, and you're here to stay ...
Still it looks like another sleepless night
Oh but darlin', that's alright
Just as long as you are holdin' me tight
Makin' love 'till the early morning light
Only whets our appetite
This will be another sleepless night
Hold me, while the moon shines in through the window
Let your love flow
Hold me, we can orchestrate love's scenario with the radio
Still it looks like another sleepless night
Oh but darlin', that's alright
Just as long as you are holdin' me tight
Hold me, while the moon shines ...
Still it looks like another sleepless night
Oh but darlin', that's alright
Just as long as you are holdin' me tight
Makin' love 'till the early morning light
Only wets our appetite
This will be another sleepless night

Debajo De Mi Almohada
Debajo De Mi Almohada
Composer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Debajo de mi almohada
vivirán todas mis cosas
mis lágrimas, mi alegría
mi sed, mi miedo y mis bromas
mi fe, mi ayer, mi esperanza
mis espinas y mis rosas
Debajo de mi almohada
volarán todos mis sueños
y alcanzaré las estrellas
con sólo estirar mis dedos
y subiré hasta la luna
como si fuera en un cuento
Debajo de mi almohada
dormirá sólo tu nombre
y aquella noche de amor
que me convertiste en hombre
Debajo de mi almohada
enterraré mis fracasos
mi miseria y mi tristeza
mi injusticia y mi pasado
el otoño de mi vida
y un amor que me hizo daño
Debajo de mi almohada
la muerte me esperara
a que me sienta cansado
y me olvide despertar

Another Sleep Song
Another Sleep Song
Composer(s): Graham Nash
Performer(s): Crosby, Stills & Nash
All I need is someone to awaken me
much of me has gone to sleep and I'm afraid to wake up
shake me by the shoulder if I'm lying with you now
when I talk about the time I sleep away
when it's hard to face the day
When I think of all the love that's taken me
how much do I get to keep and much should I give up?
shake me by the shoulder if I'm lying to you now
I'm listening to the lies inside my head
who can hurt you in your bed?
Fear of other people is a thing I hate
I travel in a bubble and I can't relate
Something is happening to my head
I don't want to hurt you
but I never heard a word you said
Has this empty hollow heart forsaken me?
I wonder if I'll ever get to feel like I did before I grew up
shake me by the shoulder if I'm lying with you now
There is no time to waste another day
'Cause we watch them fly away

Death Cab For Cutie
Death Cab For Cutie
Composer(s): Vivian Stanshall - Neil Innes
Performer(s): The Bonzo Dog Band
That night Cutie called a cab, uh huh huh
(baby don't do it)
She left her East Side room so drab uh huh huh
(baby don't do it)
She went out on the town
Knowin' it would make her lover frown
(Death-cab for Cutie)
(Death-cab for Cutie)
Someone's gonna make you pay your fare
The cab was racin' through the night, mm mm mm
(baby don't do it)
His eyes in the mirror, keepin' Cutie in sight, uh huh huh
(baby don't do it)
When he saw Cutie, it gave him a thrill
Don't you know, baby curves can kill
(Death-cab for Cutie)
(Death-cab for Cutie)
Someone's gonna make you pay your fare
Cutie, don't you play with fate
Don't leave your lover alone
If you go out on this date
His heart will turn to stone
Bad girl, Cutie, what have you done, uh huh huh
(baby don't do it)
Slippin' slidin' down-a Highway 31, mm mm mm
(baby don't do it)
The traffic lights changed from green to red
They tried to stop but they both wound up dead
(Death-cab for Cutie)
(Death-cab for Cutie)
Someone's gonna make you pay your fare
Someone's gonna make you pay your fare
Someone's gonna make you pay your fare
Someone's gonna make you pay your fare
Aaaahh oooo....

Another Saturday Night In Heaven
Another Saturday Night In Heaven
Composer(s): Dion DiMucci - Neal Robert Joseph - William J. Tuohy
Performer(s): Dion
Joshua sails with Jonah in Noah's Ark
Stephen winks and shows his victory sign
Joseph sports his many-coloured coat
Job, he takes it one day at a time
Simon Peter has to check his sword
Here in heaven, peace will reign supreme
John the Baptist raises mankind's flag
Brother Daniel, He recites his dream
(Chorus)
Another Saturday night In heaven
Whenever eight-thirty rolls around
The years of talent have assembled
As the angels gather all around
Another Saturday night in heaven
The legends of a lifetime are
Common men before our Father
He's the only real Superstar
The children run to take the front row seats
David tunes up his guitar
Gabriel stands behind a golden horn
Solomon signals for the band to start
Mary loves to serve the family there
Rachael, she's painting a passing cloud
James and John sing a brand new sung
Matthew Is smiling to the crowd
(Chorus)
Moses spins a tale of the good old days
Abraham tells Sarah one he's heard
Elizabeth prances in a pantomime
St. Paul recites the sacred word
Jonathan and Samson tip their baseball caps
Timothy is dancing on the lawn
Thomas tells them all to plan it one more time
Elijah snaps his fingers and he's gone
(Repeat chorus)

Death Of An Unpopular Poet
Death Of An Unpopular Poet
Composer(s): Jimmy Buffett
Performer(s): Jimmy Buffett
I once knew a poet
Who lived before his time
He and his dog Spooner
Would listen while he'd rhyme
Words to make ya happy
Words to make you cry
Then one day the poet suddenly did die
But he left behind a closet
Filled with verse and rhyme
And through some strange transaction
One was printed in the Times
And everybody's searchin'
For the king of undergound
Well they found him down in Florida
With a tombstone for a crown
Everybody knows a line
From his book that cost four ninety-nine
I wonder if he knows he's doin'
Quite this fine
'Cause his books are all best sellers
And his poems were turned to song
Had his brother on a talk show
Though they never got along
And now he's called immortal
Yes he's even taught in school
They say he used his talents
A most proficient tool
But he left all of his royalties
To Spooner his ol' hound
Growin' old on steak and bacon
In a doghouse ten feet 'round
And everybody wonders
Did he really lose his mind
No he was just a poet who lived before his time
He was just a poet who lived before his time

Glad To Know You
Glad To Know You
Composer(s): Ian Dury - Chaz Jankel
Performer(s): Chaz Jankel; Kitty Grant
You wander in upon my life and haven't lost me yet
Said the turkey to the carving knife
"What you give is what you get"
A fresh and mildly summers day, we thought would never end
Said the bloodhound to the stack of bay
"I thought you were my friend"
I thought you were my friend
Glad to know you, and our way of welcome
Pleased to meet you
We laugh and cry as lovers will
And howl at many moons
Said the waiter as he wrote the bill
"Please return the spoons"
As hand in hand we wander on
Through life's own wondrous maze
Said Robin Hood to Little John
"There must be other ways"
There must be other ways
Glad to know you, a way of saying welcome
Pleased to meet you
Pleased to meet you
We rest and kissed and talked and strolled and buried precious idle
Said knife and fork to sausage roll
"It's prickly in the middle"
And thus it seems come rain and shine, the patience still unfolds
Said the piker upon the Anglers Line
"I wish that I'd been told"
I wish that I'd been told
Glad to know you, and your very welcome
Pleased to meet you
I wish that I'd been told
Glad to know you, and your very welcome
Pleased to meet you
I wish that I'd been told
Glad to know you, our way of saying welcome
Pleased to meet you
Pleased to meet you
I wish that I'd been told
Glad to know you, and our way of welcome

Death Of A Salesman
Death Of A Salesman
Composer(s): Saul Broudy - Steve Burgh - Steve Goodman - Jeff Gutcheon - Lew London - Jim Rothermel
Performer(s): Steve Goodman
A traveling salesman stopped for gas, as it was getting late
He sure was getting tired, and it was snowing on the Interstate
He says, "Will you fill her up, my friend, and see if my oil's alright
And do you know a place where a tired-out traveling man might spend the night?"
The attendant winked at him and says, "I'll bet you've been around
Well the man who puts up lodgers here is known as Farmer Brown
You'll find him in that old stone house that's just at the edge of town
And he has a fifteen-year-old daughter who likes to fool around"
The salesman winked right back at him and a smile came to his lips
He paid for the gas and the oil and then he gave that man a tip
He started out and pushed that old gas pedal down to the floor
He was off like a bat and in nothing flat he was at the farmer's door
The door opened up and a beautiful girl says, "Won't you come on it?"
That traveling salesman's tongue was hanging out like Rin-Tin-Tin
"That old gas station attendant said I would find you here
And do you have a suitable room you could rent to me, my dear?"
"Alas, kind sir, I'm sorry but the last one's gone, you see
So if you want to spend the night, you'll have to sleep with me"
He says, "How fortuitous, my pretty little miss!"
And he throws his arms around her and he gives that girl a kiss
Now her warm and tender ruby lips he scarcely could believe
And he never saw the hammer she had hidden up her sleeve
She said, "I'm geting sleepy. It's time to go to bed"
And as they turned to climb the stairs she whupped him on the head
The very next day, the salesman's car, with brand new license plates
Was sitting at Farmer Brown's Gas Station out on the Interstate
So all you traveling salesmen who might be passing through
Better watch your step or the traveling salesman joke will be on you!

Another Saturday Night
Another Saturday Night
Composer(s): Sam Cooke
First release by: Sam Cooke - 1963
Covered by multiple other artists
Another Saturday night, and I ain't got nobody
I got some money 'cause I just got paid
Now how I wish I had someone to talk to
I'm in an awful way
I got in town a month ago
I've see a lot of girls since then
If I could see 'em I could get 'em
But as yet I've haven't met 'em
That's why I'm in the shape I'm in
Another Saturday night, and I ain't got nobody
I got some money 'cause I just got paid
Now how I wish I had someone to talk to
I'm in an awful way
Another fellow told me
he had a sister who looked just fine
Instead of being my deliverance
she had a strange resemblance
to a cat named Frankenstein
Another Saturday night, and I ain't got nobody
I got some money 'cause I just got paid
Now how I wish I had someone to talk to
I'm in an awful way
It's hard on a fella'
when he don't know his way around
If I don't find me a honey
to help me spend my money
I'm gonna' have to blow this town
Another Saturday night, and I ain't got nobody
I got some money 'cause I just got paid
Now how I wish I had someone to talk to
I'm in an awful way

Death Cell Blues
Composer(s): Blind Willie McTell
Performer(s): Blind Willie McTell
They got me 'cused for murder and I haven't even harmed a man
They got me 'cused for murder but I haven't even harmed a man
They got me charged with burglin' and I haven't even raised my hand
The judge won't give me no fine
The judge won't give me no fine
Ain't but one thing could release me and that's so far beside
I'll have to give you my number, 5994
I'll have to give your my number, 5994
Because I'll be there forever, I've have no other place to go
They got me 'cused for forging and I can't even write my name
Well they got me 'cused of forging and I can't even write my name
And my eyes still don't miss, my baby left my poor heart in pain
My baby left my heart in pain

You (Neil Sedaka)
You
Composer(s): Phil Cody - Neil Sedaka
Performer(s): Neil Sedaka
I'm in love with you, each and every day
And I can't remember my life another way!
Like a child hangin' on the tremblin' hands
Snuggled in against the cold, I know
The world turns left to right
The best part of my life is you!
Like a gentle breath of hope in the night
You bring my little secret longings to light!
Ooh, nobody can make it happen like you
Nobody but you!
Promises may break and the sky might fall
Love may last for ever, or maybe not at all!
Like a shell tumblin' upon the tide
A kid upon a giddy ride
That's me!
At home or out to sea
I always want to be
With you!
Like a gentle breath of hope in the night
You bring my little secret longings to light!
Ooh, nobody can make it happen like you
Nobody but you!
Like a child hangin' on the tremblin' hands
Snuggled in against the cold, I know
The world turns left to right
The best part of my life is you!
Like a gentle breath of hope in the night
You bring my little secret longings to light!
Ooh, nobody can make it happen like you
Nobody but you!
Nobody but you!

Performer(s): Fred Astaire
and multiple other artists
Tell me that it's true
Tell me you agree
I was meant for you
You were meant for me
Dearly beloved, how clearly I see

Nothing could save me, fate gave me a sign
I know that I'll be yours come shower or shine
So I say merely, dearly beloved be mine

I Cry Alone
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach - Hal David
Performer(s): Dionne Warwick
and multiple other artists
I cry alone
When no-one else can hear me
When friends come by to cheer me
I smile and say
I feel okay
But I cry alone
Each lonely night without you
But when they talk about you
I make believe
I never grieve
And here in my room
Where no-one else can find me
I lock the door behind me
And I cry
And I cry!
Please come, please come back to me
Oh how I long to kiss you!
If friends don't say I miss you
They've never known
How I cry alone!

Another Rainy Day In New York City
Another Rainy Day In New York City
Composer(s): Eric Faulkner - Stuart "Woody" Wood
Performer(s): Bay City Rollers
Listen to the radio
A voice on the early show says I'm not alone
It's just another rainy day in New York City
And the rain comes pouring down
Like early morning strangers we had nothing left to say but
"See you round"
And I think of the night when it all felt so right
How was I supposed to know?
Now your feeling's gone 'cos when I call on the phone
You told the operator say "Sorry, no-one's home"
It's another rainy day in New York City
At night those city lights they sure look pretty
I held my candle to the wind and watched my dreams just sail away
With another rainy day in New York City
To think that only yesterday
Life was such an easy game that I could play
Now it's another rainy day in New York City
And the rain comes pouring down
So I'm on my own and the radio says
That the sun ain't gonna shine
With the words you said spinnin' round in my head
You know I can't find a way to get you out of my mind.
It's another rainy day in New York City
At night those city lights they sure look pretty
I held my candle to the wind and watched my dreams just sail away
With another rainy day in New York City
It's another rainy day in New York City
At night those city lights they sure look pretty ...
