Ode To Billie Joe


Ode To Billie Joe
French Title: Marie-Jeanne
Composer(s): Bobbie Gentry
Originally performed by: Bobbie Gentry
Covered by various other artists
It was the third of June
another sleepy, dusty Delta day
I was out choppin' cotton and my brother was balin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat
And Mama hollered out the back door "y'all remember to wipe your feet"
And then she said "I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge"
"Today Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
'n' Papa said to Mama as he passed around the blackeyed peas
"Well Billy Joe never had a lick of sense, pass the biscuits, please"
"There's five more acres in the lower forty I've got to plow"
'n' Mama said it was shame about Billy Joe, anyhow
Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on Choctaw Ridge
And now Billy Joe MacAllister's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge
'n' Brother said he recollected when he and Tom and Billie Joe
Put a frog down my back at the Carroll County picture show
And wasn't I talkin' to him after church last Sunday night?
"I'll have another piece-a apple pie, you know it don't seem right"
"I saw him at the sawmill yesterday on Choctaw Ridge"
"And now ya tell me Billie Joe's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
'n' Mama said to me "Child, what's happened to your appetite?"
"I've been cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a single bite"
"That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today"
"Said he'd be pleased to have dinner on Sunday, oh, by the way"
"He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge"
"And she and Billy Joe was throwing somethin' off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
A year has come 'n' gone since we heard the news 'bout Billy Joe
'n' Brother married Becky Thompson, they bought a store in Tupelo
There was a virus going 'round, Papa caught it and he died last Spring
And now Mama doesn't seem to wanna do much of anything
And me, I spend a lot of time pickin' flowers up on Choctaw Ridge
And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie Bridge

May You Never


May You Never
Composer(s): John Martyn
Performer(s): John Martyn
and various other artists
May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold
May you never make your bed out in the cold
Just like a great strong brother of mine, you know that I love you true
You never talk dirty behind my back and I know that there's those that do
Please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind for me
You're just like a good close sister to me and you know that I love you true
You hold no blade to stab me in my back and I know that there's those that do
Please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind
Love is a lesson to learn in our time
Please, won't you please, won't you bear it in mind for me
May you never lose your temper if you get hit in a bar-room fight
May you never lose your woman overnight

Performer(s): Chico Buarque;
and various other artists
Olha Maria
Eu bem te queria
Fazer uma presa
Da minha poesia
Mas hoje, Maria
Pra minha surpresa
Pra minha tristeza
Precisas partir
Parte, Maria
Que estás tão bonita
Que estás tão aflita
Pra me abandonar
Sinto, Maria
Que estás de visita
Teu corpo se agita
Querendo dançar
Parte, Maria
Que estás toda nua
Que a lua te chama
Que estás tão mulher
Arde, Maria
Na chama da lua
Maria cigana
Maria maré
Parte cantando
Maria fugindo
Contra a ventania
Brincando, dormindo
Num colo de serra
Num campo vazio
Num leito de rio
Nos braços do mar
Vai, alegria
Que a vida, Maria
Não passa de um dia
Não vou te prender
Corre, Maria
Que a vida não espera
É uma primavera
Não podes perder
Anda, Maria
Pois eu só teria
A minha agonia
Pra te oferecer

May You Always


May You Always
Composer(s): Larry Markes; Dick Charles
Performer(s): The McGuire Sisters
and various other artists
May you always walk in sunshine
Slumber warm when night winds blow
May you always live with laughter
For a smile becomes you so
May good fortune find your doorway
May the bluebird sing your song
May no trouble travel your way
May no worry stay too long
May your heartaches be forgotten
May no tears be spilled
May old acquaintance be remembered
And your cup of kindness filled
And may always be a dreamer
May your wildest dream come true
May you find someone to love
As much as I love you
(May your heartaches be forgotten)
(May no tears be spilled)
May old acquaintance be remembered
And your cup of kindness filled
And may always be a dreamer
May your wildest dream come true
May you find someone to love
As much as I love you

Olga Pulloffski, The Beautiful Spy


Olga Pulloffski, The Beautiful Spy
Composer(s): Lee; Weston
Performer(s): Len Bermon; Henry Hall
(Voice announcing arriving guests)
Colonel and Mrs Mango-Chutney
Major Curry of the 19th Member Force
Their Highnesses the Raja and Ranee of Mesomethuselum
Mademoiselle Olga Pulloffski
(Voice in alarm)
By Gad, get onto the War Office at once; it's Olga Pulloffski!
(Music begins)
The scene is a miltitary ballroom
The gallant and fair are the dancers
But who's the brunette
Who with eyes black as jet
Fascinates all the guards and the lancers?
She's Olga Pullofski, the beautiful spy
The gay continental rapscallion
Some say that she's Russian
And some say she's French
But her accent is gin and Italian
Shame on you, shame on you
Oh fie fie! (pronounced in a way that rhymes with "Oh high high")
Olga Pulloffski, you beautiful spy
She's waltzes around with the general
And while on the floor they go whirling
She robs the old sport
Of the plans of the fort
And she'll sell them for ten million sterling
Olga Pullofski, the beautiful spy
Will soon make him know what disgrace is
She'll leave him with only
His top boots and spurs
And his pair of red, white and blue braces
Shame on you, shame on you
Oh fie fie!
Olga Pulloffski, you beautiful spy
(Bell chimes once)
(Voice announcing the time in ringing tones)
Twelve o'clock and all's well
(Voice echoing the other voice)
Twelve o'clock and alls weeeeeellll!!
The secrets of our Tower of London
She sold to some great foreign power
It was not Anne Boleyn
Who at midnight was seen
Walking round in the Adjective Tower
T'was Olga Pulloffski, the beautiful spy
The beefeater she bribed with kisses
Would willingly've given her all the crown jewels
But he'd lent them that night to the missus
Shame on you, shame on you
Oh fie fie!
Olga Pulloffski, you beautiful spy.
At last she was caught and courts-martialled
The Colonel said, "We hate to hurt you"
"Of course it's all rot"
"But you've got to be shot"
And she powdered her nose and said, "Good show!"
She's Olga Pulloffski, the beautiful spy.
The firing squad tenderly kissed her
Then the Captain said, "Fire!"
When the smoke cleared away
They hollered, "Hooray! We've missed her!"
She is too young and too fair to die
Olga Pulloffski, the beautiful spy
(music finishes up and then stops)
Shame on you, shame on you
Oh fie fie!
(music starts again)
Olga Pulloffski, you beautiful spy

May This Be Love


May This Be Love
Composer(s): Jimi Hendrix
Originally performed by: The Jimi Hendrix Experience
Covered by various other artists
Waterfall
nothing can harm me at all
My worries seem so very small
with my waterfall
I can see
my rainbow calling me
through the misty breeze
of my waterfall
Some people say
day-dreamings for all the, huh
lazy minded fools
with nothin' else to do
So let them laugh, laugh at me
So just as long as I have you
to see me through
I have nothing to lose
'Long as I have you
Waterfall
don't ever change your ways
Fall with me for a million days
Oh, my waterfall

Oleo De Mujer Con Sombrero


Oleo De Mujer Con Sombrero
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez;
and various other artists
Una mujer se ha perdido
conocer el delirio y el polvo
se ha perdido esta bella locura
su breve cintura debajo de mí
Se ha perdido mi forma de amar
se ha perdido mi huella en su mar
Veo una luz que vacila
y promete dejarnos a oscuras
Veo un perro ladrando a la luna
con otra figura que recuerda a mí
Veo más: veo que no me halló
Veo más: veo que se perdió
Una mujer innombrable
huye como una gaviota
y yo rápido seco mis botas
blasfemo una nota y apago el reloj
Que me tenga cuidado el amor
que le puedo cantar su canción
La cobardía es asunto
de los hombres, no de los amantes
Los amores cobardes no llegan a amores
ni a historias, se quedan allí
Ni el recuerdo los puede salvar
ni el mejor orador conjugar
Una mujer con sombrero
como un cuadro del viejo Chagall
corrompiéndome al centro del miedo
y yo, que no soy bueno, me puse a llorar
Pero entonces lloraba por mí
y ahora lloro por verla morir

May The Bird Of Paradise Fly Up Your Nose


May The Bird Of Paradise Fly Up Your Nose
Composer(s): Neal Merritt
Little Jimmy Dickens
and various other artists
One fine day as I was a-walkin' down the street
Spied a beggar man with rags upon his feet
Took a penny from my pocket
In his tin cup I did drop it
I heard him say as I made my retreat
"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"
"May an elephant caress you with his toes"
"May your wife be plagued with runners in her hose"
"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"
The laundry man is really on his toes
Found a hundred-dollar bill among my clothes
When he called me I came a-runnin'
Gave him back his dime for phonin'
I heard him sayin' as I turned to go
"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"
"May an elephant caress you with his toes"
"May your wife be plagued with runners in her hose"
"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"
I was way behind one day to catch the train
Taxi driver said "We'll make it just the same"
The speed cop made it with us
And as he wrote out the ticket
I stood by politely a-waitin' for my change
"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"
"May an elephant caress you with his toes"
"May your wife be plagued with runners in her hose"
"May the bird of paradise fly up your nose"

Olê Olá


Olê Olá
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque;
and various other artists
Não chore ainda não
Que eu tenho um violão
E nós vamos cantar
Felicidade aqui
Pode passar e ouvir
E se ela for de samba
Há de querer ficar
Seu padre toca o sino
Que é pra todo mundo saber
Que a noite é criança
Que o samba é menino
Que a dor é tão velha
Que pode morrer
Olê olê olê olá
Tem samba de sobra
Quem sabe sambar
Que entre na roda
Que mostre o gingado
Mas muito cuidado
Não vale chorar
Não chore ainda não
Que eu tenho uma razão
Pra você não chorar
Amiga me perdoa
Se eu insisto à toa
Mas a vida é boa
Para quem cantar
Meu pinho, toca forte,
Que é pra todo mundo acordar
Não fale da vida
Nem fale da morte
Tem dó da menina
Não deixa chorar
Olê olê olê olá
Tem samba de sobra
Quem sabe sambar
Que entre na roda
Que mostre o gingado
Mas muito cuidado
Não vale chorar
Não chore ainda não
Que eu tenho a impressão
Que o samba vem aí
E um samba tão imenso
Que eu ás vezes penso
Que o próprio tempo
Vai parar pra ouvir
Luar, espere um pouco
Que é pro meu samba poder chegar
Eu sei que o violão
Está fraco, está rouco
Mas a minha voz
Não cansou de chamar
Olê olê olê olá
Tem samba de sobra
Ninguém quer sambar
Não há mais quem cante
Nem há lugar mais lugar
O sol chegou antes
Do samba chegar
Quem passa nem liga
Já vai trabalhar
E você, minha amiga
Já pode chorar

Title In Pinyin Chinese: Meigui Meigui Wo Ai Ni
Composer(s): Chen Gexin; Wilfrid Thomas; Chris Langdon
Performer(s): Petula Clark
and various other artists
((Originally performed by: Yáo Lì (Miss Hue Lee))
Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart
What is your future? now we have to part
Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away
Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay
Make way, oh, make way for my Eastern Rose
Men crowd in dozens everywhere she goes
In her rickshaw on the street or in a cabaret
"Please make way for Rose" you can hear them say
All my life I shall remember
Oriental music and you in my arms
Perfumed flowers in your tresses
Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms
Rose, Rose I love you with your almond eyes
Fragrant and slender 'neath tropical skies
I must cross the seas again and never see you more
'way back to my home on a distant shore
(All my life I shall remember)
(Oriental music and you in my arms)
(Perfumed flowers in your tresses)
(Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms)
Rose, Rose I leave you, my ship is in the bay
Kiss me farewell now, there's nothin' to say
East is East and West is West, our worlds are far apart
I must leave you now but I leave my heart
Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart
What is your future?, now we have to part
Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away
Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay
(Rose, Rose I love you, I cannot stay)

May I Whisper In Your Ear
May I Whisper In Your Ear
Performer(s): Jimi Hendrix
May I whisper in your ear
From my heart so you'll clearly hear...
There are people so dear...
They're like children...
Naked in a cold world...
Beautiful children
In an old world...
May I take you away
From the evils of today
To the dreams of tomorrow
You know that heaven...
Has no sorrow.
You know that heaven...
Has no tomorrow.
Hear the sound of the magic drums...
Hearts are beating for the sun...
Sending evil on the run...
Now watch the wind...
Look over yonder...
Here comes some news...
Coming down like lightning...
Straight for me and you.
People of destruction
Your time is out of date...
People who's living crooked
Better start getting straight
I've been through some changes
A whole lot of re-arranges...
Been through some ups and downs
And whole lot of turn arounds
I been on the shelf and even killed myself...
1,000 times ago and maybe 1,000
Times more
She said she comes from ice land...
I told her I was from the west
She took me to the snow capped mountains...
And then she put me through the test...
We walked across the glacier
The horses stayed behind...
And as we laid between the
Frozen vallies we kissed
For the very first time
And now we're stuck together
It was too long ago
But it seems like...years ago...
Since I felt the warm hello of the sun
Lately things seem a little colder...
The wind, it seems to get a little bolder
Forget of my name
Remember it only as a hand shake
Introduction to my belief which is god
Ride instead the waves of my interpreture
Music, sound
Hynotic if you choose
But truth and life
Regardless of your questionable timid compromises
Which I intend to erase
Which I will erase without hint of reward
As I am only a messenger
And you a sheep in process of evolution
Almost at death with yourself
And on the staircase of birth
Soon you may almost forget the smell of your family...

May I Sleep In Your Barn Tonight, Mister


May I Sleep In Your Barn Tonight, Mister
Performer(s): Mac Wiseman
One night it was dark and 'twas stormy
And along came a tramp in the rain
He was making his way to some station
To catch a long distance train
May I sleep in your barn tonight mister
It is cold lying out on the ground
And the cold north wind it is blowing
And I have no place to lie down
Oh I have no tobacco or matches
And I'm sure that I'll do you no harm
I will tell you my story kind mister
For it runs through my heart like a thorn
It was three years ago last summer
I shall never forget that sad day
When a stranger came out from the city
And said that he wanted to stay
One night as I came from my workshop
I was whistling and singing with joy
I expected a kind hearted welcome
From my sweet loving wife and my boy
But what should I find I find but a letter
It was placed in the room on the stand
And the moment my eyes fell upon it
I picked it right up in my hand
Now this note said my wife and the stranger
They had left and had taken my son
Oh I wonder if God up in Heaven
Only knows what this stranger has done

Dame los perfumes de sus calles y sus flores
y la luz de sus mañanas, acuarela de colores
Dame sus ritmos calientes cuando suenan sus guitarras
y el repique de un gitano cuando está tocando palmas
Dame la alegría de mi Tierra Santa
y ese "angel" de mi gente cuando el corazón les canta y dicen
Olé, olé, olé, olá
Mi tierra tiene una gracia que no se pude aguantar
Dame sus sabores a fritura y manzanilla
y sus fiestas populares que son una maravilla
Dame su belleza hecha de mil razas
y el valor de sus toreros cuando salen a la plaza
Dame la alegría de mi Tierra Santa
y ese "angel" de mi gente cuando el corazón les canta y dicen
Olé, olé, olé, olá
no hay piropo más bonito que te puedan regalar
Y dicen
Olé, olé, olé, olá
Mi tierra tiene una gracia que no se pude aguantar
Lléname los ojos de su cielo azul turquesa
y la magia de su luna que te embruja y que te besa
Llévame a caballo por marismas y caminos
a ofrecerle mi cariño a la Virgen del Rocío
Dame la alegría de mi Tierra Santa
y ese "angel" de mi gente cuando el corazón les canta y dicen
Olé, olé, olé, olá
Es el grito de mi gente cuando quiere de verdad
Y dicen
Olé, olé, olé, olá
Mi tierra tiene una gracia que no se pude aguantar
Olé, olé, olé, olá
no hay piropo más bonito que te puedan regalar

So may I have the next dream with you?
And may it last the whole night through

Quand t'auras tes dix-neuf ans
J'serai plus blond comme avant
Fini l'Odyssée d'l'Espace
Deux mille un impair et passe
Tu viendras me demander
Pourquoi, comment t'es née
Je te parlerai d'amour
Que le temps m'paraît court
J'fais pas dans la nostalgie
J'veux pas r'faire le monde, la vie
J'dis tout même si tu souris
J'suis p't'être oldie but goodie
Goodie goodie
Moi j'ai fait mal à ma mère
Pas d'études secondaires
Vers quinze ans j'suis parti
M'balader dans ma vie
Et de décalages horaires
De tournées en galas galères
Dancings et salles des fêtes
J'confonds tout dans ma tête
J'fais pas dans la nostalgie
J'oublie pas c'que j'ai appris
Celle que j'aime comprend c'que j'dis
J'suis p't'être oldie but goodie
Goodie goodie
J'fais pas dans la nostalgie
J'suis p't'être oldie but goodie
J'oublie pas c'que j'ai appris
J'suis p't'être oldie but goodie
Celle que j'aime comprend c'que j'dis
J'suis p't'être oldie but goodie

May I Drop A Petal In Your Glass Of Wine
Composer(s): Mack Gordan; Harry Revel
May I drop a petal in your glass of wine?
It will make your life a song
When I drop a petal in your glass of wine
Lady Luck will come along
Her face will dance in your champagne
Your heart will dance like bubbles in the rain
May I drop a petal in your glass of wine?
To bring out the blue above
For you'll find a petal in your glass of wine
Will show the way to love
You'll know the time is right
You'll know tonight's the time to say be mine
When I drop this petal in your glass of wine
