Mama Liked The Roses
Mama Liked The Roses
Composer(s): Johnny Christopher
Performer(s): Elvis Presley
Oh, mama liked the roses she grew them in the yard
But Winter always came around
and made the growing way too hard
Oh, mama liked the roses and when she had the time
She'd decorate the living room, for all us kids to see
When I hear the Sunday bells ringing in the morning
I remember crying when she used to sing
Oh, mama liked the roses but most of all she cared
About the way we learned to live
And if we said our prayers
You know I kept the family bible
With a rose that she saved inside
It was pressed between the pages
Like it had found a place to hide
Oh, mama liked the roses in such a special way
We bring them every Mother's Day
And put them on her grave
Oh, mama liked the roses Mmmm
Mama liked the roses

Oh! Sweet Nuthin'
Oh! Sweet Nuthin'
Composer(s): Lou Reed
Performer(s): The Velvet Underground;
Phish; Ten Thousand Dollar Gold Chain
Say a word for jimmy brown
He ain’t got nothing at all
Not a shirt right of his back
He ain’t got nothing at all
And say a word for ginger brown
Walks with his head down to the ground
Took the shoes right of his feet
To poor boy right out in the street
And this is what he said
Oh sweet nuthin’
She ain’t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nutin’
She ain’t got nothing at all
Say a word for polly may
She can’t tell the night from the day
They threw her out in the street
But just like a cat she landed on her feet
And say a word for joanna love
She ain’t got nothing at all
’cos everyday she falls in love
And everynight she falls when she does
She said
Oh sweet nuthin’
You know she ain’t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nutin’
She ain’t got nothing at all
Oh let me hear you!
Say a word for jimmy brown
He ain’t got nothing at all
Not a shirt right of his back
He ain’t got nothing at all
And say a word for ginger brown
Walks with his head down to the ground
Took the shoes right of his feet
To poor boy right out in the street
And this is what he said
Oh sweet nuthin’
She ain’t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nutin’
She ain’t got nothing at all
She ain’t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nutin’
She ain’t got nothing at all
She ain’t got nothing at all
She ain’t got nothing at all

Mama Leone
Mama Leone
Composer(s): Benedetto Arico; Pierre Delanoë; Claude Lemesle
Performer(s): Nana Mouskouri
Mama Leone, Mama Leone, au bar de l'amitié
Mama Leone, tu nous pardonnes: on n'a jamais payé
Mama Leone, mais on chantait et tu aimais bien ça
Les gens des beaux quartiers de Rome
Venaient voir le spectacle quelques fois
Mama Leone
Mama Leone, comme les cigognes, on arrivait chez toi
Mama Leone, mais à l'automne, on était toujours là
Mama Leone, qu'on a fait souffrir ton vieux piano
Il est mort près du téléphone
Un soir où nous avons joué trop faux
Mama Leone
Mama Leone, Mama Leone, au bar de l'amitié
Quand minuit sonne y a plus personne pour rire et pour chanter
Mama Leone, un coffee-shop ou un drugstore je crois
T'ont remplacée au cœur de Rome
On n'a gardé que ce nom là
Mama Leone

Oh Quelle Nuit
Oh Quelle Nuit
English Title: Oh, Lonesome Me
Composer(s): Don Gibson; M. Tézé
Performer(s): Sacha Distel
J'ai bu d'un trait deux fines à l'eau et trois whiskys
Et puis après, quelques portos avec Johnny
Derrière son bar ,j'le voyais tout petit
Oh! quelle nuit
Je me souviens d'avoir dansé le cha cha cha
Avec une fille qui ressemblait à Dalida
Tout en pleurant j'lui ai confié ma vie
Oh! quelle nuit
Tout ça est arrivé parce qu'on t'a raconté
Qu'on m'avait vu avec une jolie femme
T'as voulu te venger et tu n'es pas rentrée
Alors je t'ai cherchée voilà le drame
Au petit jour ,je suis rentré cahin-caha
Tu m'attendais sur le palier en pyjama
Quand tu m'a vu, tu m' as tendu les bras
Oh! quelle nuit
Depuis je t'ai prouvé que cette femme n'était
Tout simplement qu'une de mes secrétaires et
Toi tu m'as avoué que pour me faire marcher
Tu dînais ce soir là avec ta mère
Pendant deux jours je me suis mis à l'eau de Vichy
Mais en une nuit j'ai découvert et j'ai compris
Que tu est mon indispensable amour
Oh! pour la vie
Oh! pour la vie
Oh! pour la vie

Mama Kin
Mama Kin
Composer(s): Stephen Tyler
Performer(s): Aerosmith
and various other artists
It ain't easy, livin' like a gypsy
Tell ya, honey, how I feel
I've been dreaming
Floatin' down stream and
Losin' touch with all that is real
Whole earth lover, keepin' under cover
Never knowin' where ya been
You've been fadin', always out paradin
Keepin' touch with Mama Kin
Well you've always got your tail on the wag
Shootin' fire from your mouth just like a dragon
You act like a perpertual drag
You better check it out
Or someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon
It ain't easy, livin' like ya wanna
And it's so hard to find piece of mind
Yes it is
The way I see it, you've got to say shit
But don't forget to drop me a line
Said you're as bald as an egg at eighteen
And workin' for you dad is just a drag
He still stuffs your mouth with your dreams
You better check it out
Or someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon
Keepin' touch with Mama Kin
Tell her where you've gone and been
Livin' out your fantasy
Sleeping late and smoking tea
[repeat once]
It ain't easy, livin' like ya wanna
And it's so hard to find piece of mind
Yes it is
The way I see it, you've got to say shit
But don't forget to drop me a line
Said you're as bald as an egg at eighteen
And workin' for you dad is just a drag
He still stuffs your mouth with your dreams
You better check it out
Or someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon
Keepin' touch with Mama Kin
Tell her where you've gone and been
Livin' out your fantasy
Sleeping late and smoking tea

Oh! Quelle Famille
Oh! Quelle Famille
Composer(s): France Gall; R. Gall; G. Liferman
Performer(s): France Gall
Quand on vient au monde un beau jour
Il y a 50 parents autour
Qui ne vous parlent qu'en japonais
Et qui vous cassent tous vos jouets
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Comme on serait heureux sur terre
Sans tous ces parents!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Quelle joie s'il n'y avait
Rien que des enfants!
À la télé papa aime la politique
Maman les feuilletons romantiques
Oh la la la
Quand elle se branche sur le football
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Comme on serait heureux sur terre
Sans tous ces parents!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Quelle joie s'il n'y avait
Rien que des enfants!
On se dispute ou bien on rit
C'est notre façon de s'aimer
Mais s'il arrive de gros ennuis
Tout le monde se trouve rassemblé
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Qui m'amuse tant
Et que j'aime à la folie!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Et que je voudrais garder
Pour toute ma vie!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Oh la la la quelle famille!
Et que je voudrais garder
Pour toute ma vie!

Mama Just Wants To Barrelhouse All Night Long
Mama Just Wants To Barrelhouse All Night Long
Composer(s): Bruce Cockburn
Performer(s): Bruce Cockburn; Dawn Tyler Watson
I was up the road on easy street
Watching everybody stand around and cheat
A man comes up and says, "Move along
Down to the corner where you belong"
But mama just wants to barrelhouse all night long
I hear the city singing like a siren choir
Some fool tried to set this town on fire
TV preacher screams "come on along"
I feel like Fay Wray face to face with King Kong
But mama just wants to barrelhouse all night long
Sometimes I wonder what I am
I feel like I'm living in a hologram
It doesn't seem to matter what's right or wrong
Everybody's grabbing and coming on strong
But mama just wants to barrelhouse all night long

Oh! Oh! Antonio
Oh! Oh! Antonio
Composer(s): Florrie Forde; Jill Daniels
In quaint native dress an Italian maid
Was seeping distress as the streets she strayed
Searching in every part for her bold sweetheart
And his ice-cream cart
Her English was bad
It cannot be denied
And so to herself
In Italian she cried
Oh! Oh! oh Antonio, he's gone away
Left me alone-ee-o, all on my own-ee-o
I want to meet him with his new sweetheart
Then up will go Antonio and his ice-cream cart
So sad grew the plight of this fair young lass
She'd faint at the sight of an ice-cream ?????
She dreamed nigh every day he'd come back to stay
Then he'd fade away.
Her old hurdy-gurdy
All day she'd parade
And this she would sing,
Sweet tunes that it played
Oh! Oh! Antonio, he's gone away
left me alone-ee-o, all on my own-ee-o
I want to meet him with he's new sweetheart
Then up will go Antonio and his ice-cream cart
Oh! Oh! Antonio, he's gone away
Left me alone-ee-o
All on my own-ee-o
I want to meet him with he's new sweetheart
Then up will go Antonio and his ice-cream cart

Mama From The Train
Mama From The Train
Composer(s): Irving Gordon
Performer(s): Patti Page
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss
Wave mama from the train a goodbye
Throw mama from the train a kiss a kiss
And don't cry, my baby, don't cry
How I miss that sweet lady with her old-country touch
Miss her quaint broken English called *Pennsylvania Dutch*
I can still see her there at the station that day
Calling out to her baby as the train pulled away
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss
Dry mama all your tears, won't you try?
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss
And eat mama up all her pie
Can't believe that she's gone now, it's a lonely old town
Yet I know that her heavenly love keeps looking down
'cause whenever I happen to be passing through
I could swear she was there with the warmth I once knew
And I
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss
Wave mama from the train a goodbye
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss
And she throws one back from up high

Oh! Mr. Punch
Oh! Mr. Punch
Composer(s): Harry Hemsley
Performer(s): Harry Hemsley
Oh Mr. Punch you will agree
Calls for a lot of sympathy
He never has a moment's peace
And lives in terror of the police
His baby being extra strong
Keeps him awake the whole night long
His wife nags him, so 'tis said
From early dawn till he's in bed
Oh Mister Punch, Oh Mister Punch
Of trials and troubles you've a bunch,
At breakfast, dinner, supper, lunch,
You never have much leisure.
You're teased, tormented, day and night,
You're set upon, both left and right,
It makes us laugh with all our might,
And gives us heaps of pleasure.
He's full of quips and merry chaff
And loves to make the children laugh
In spite of this the fact remains
He gets a beating for his pains
His enemies have then to learn
In course of time a worm will turn
And soon poor Punch in manner slick
Just sets about them with his stick
Oh Mister Punch, Oh Mister Punch
Of trials and troubles you've a bunch
At breakfast, dinner, supper, lunch
You never have much leisure
You're teased, tormented, day and night
You're set upon, both left and right
It makes us laugh with all our might
And gives us heaps of pleasure

Mama Didn't Lie
Mama Didn't Lie
Composer(s): Curtis Mayfield; John Waters
Performer(s): Jan Bradley; Doris
Mama didn't lie, she didn't lie
Mama didn't lie, she didn't lie
Here comes that boy and his friends
Making eyes at me again
Do they all think that I'm a toy
To be played with by every boy?
Well, they're wrong to think I
Will be caught by the wink of an eye
My mama didn't lie (Mama didn't lie)
She didn't lie
The greatest pastime in this man's world
Is playin' tricks on every young girl
To have one is how they get their kick
But not me because I know their trick
And they're wrong to think I
Will be caught by the wink of an eye
My mama didn't lie (Mama didn't lie)
She didn't lie
Mama didn't lie, she didn't lie
I remember what my mama told me
She said, "Girl stay in your class
You got a whole lot of growin' and a'learnin' to do
Girl don't cha go so fast
The greatest pastime in this man's world
Is playin' tricks on every young girl
To have one is how they get their kick
But no me because I know their trick
And they're wrong to think I
Will be caught by the wink of an eye
My mama didn't lie (Mama didn't lie)
She didn't lie
Mama didn't lie, she didn't lie
Mama didn't ...

Oh! Mon Amour
Oh! Mon Amour
Composer(s): Michaele;
P. de Senneville; O. Toussaint
Performer(s): Christophe
Elle a des yeux qui voient la mer
A travers la pluie qui descend
Elle fait des rêves où elle se perd
Entre les grands nuages blancs
Elle ne sait plus le jour ni l'heure
Elle a des larmes au fond du cœur
Qui lui font peur
Oh! mon amour écoute-moi
Déjà la vie t'attends là-bas
Non n'ai pas peur il faut me croire
La vie est belle même sans mémoire
Tu sais je te raconterai
Avec le temps tu comprendras
Elle n'entend pas ce que je dis
Et sa main dans ma main s'endort
Je voudrais être ce pays
Où elle s'en va chercher encore
Dans le miroir de son passé
Ce rêve qui s'était brisé
Un soir d'été
Oh! mon amour écoute-moi
Un autre monde t'attend là-bas
Non n'ai pas peur il faut me croire
La vie est belle et notre histoire
Peut continuer quand tu voudras
Et tout sera comme autrefois
Oh! mon amour ouvre ton cœur
Tu m'entendras
Pardonne le mal que je t'ai fait
Je ne te quitterai plus jamais
Oui mais demain dans mes cheveux
Je vois des soleils dans tes yeux
Oh! mon amour
Une autre vie t'attend là-bas
Je t'aime tant il faut me croire
Le monde est beau et notre histoire
Peut continuer quand tu voudras
Et tout sera.........

Baby, so they give you anything
Darling, all the joy money can bring
Baby, do they bring you happiness
Darling, you're no different from the rest
Can't you see that it's love you really need
Take my hand and I'll show what a love could be
Before it's too late
Mama don't want you, daddy don't want you
Give it up baby, baby mama can't buy you love
Mama don't want you, daddy don't need you
Give it up baby, baby mama can't buy you love
Baby, fancy friends showing you a smile
Darling, rich relations for a while

Darling, this old heart should be enough
All I need is a chance to make you mine
Let me in, I'll change the way you feel inside
Before it's too late

Oh! Mister Railroad Man
Won't You Take Me Back To Alabam'?
Composer(s): Stanley Murphy; Henry I. Marshall
This afternoon at four a knockin' at my door
Came the letter carrierman
With a letter in his hand
That came from Birgmingham, way down in Alabam'
And it was full of love and kisses
From the gal who's goin' to be my Missus
Oh, oh, oh!
That's why I want to go where the Southern breezes blow
Oh, Mister, look a here! oh, Mister, look a here!
Can't you see just how it reads!
Says I've got the love she needs!
Just notice how she pleads, just see her pleadin'
Cause she says she's tired of livin' lonely
And she's longing just to have me only
Oh, oh, oh!
That's why I've come to you in your uniform of blue
Oh Mister Railroad man!
Won't you take me back to Alabam'
'Way down to Birmingham, Alabam'
To the sweetest gal what am!
And when the snow is falling in the Northern clime
I'll be pickin' cotton in the bright sunshine
Oh Lordy! good, kind, Mister Railroad Man!
Take me back to Alabam'!

Mama (When My Dollies Have Babies)
Mama (When My Dollies Have Babies)
French, German, & Italian Title: Mama
Composer(s): Sonny Bono
Performer(s): Cher; Dalida
Mama when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama will a prince come and take me away
When I said these things I believed in kings
Then I didn't know love could hurt me so
Slowly she replied, tears had filled her eyes
Baby not so fast let your young life last
Mama when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama will a prince come and take me away
I sang to her in fun, my teens had just began
My age was not the same still we played the game
Her eyes were filled with pride and slowly she replied
Soon enough you'll be a very pretty bride
Mama when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama will a prince come and take me away
Mama, will the hurt go away deep inside
When I sang this song
My poor world had gone along
All my early dreams has turned to crystal streams
My love it was last and more tears have past
And left me just one thing a tender voice I sing
Mama when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama will a prince come and take me away
