Tears In Heaven
Tears In Heaven
Composer(s): Eric Clapton - Will Jennings
First release by: Eric Clapton - 1991
Covered by multiple other artists
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way, through night and day
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven
Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knee
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please
Beyond the door
There's peace I'm sure
And I know there'll be no more...
Tears in heaven
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

My Filipino Rose
My Filipino Rose
Composer(s): Hank Snow
Performer(s): Hank Snow; Ernest Tubb
The postman dropped a letter at my door
The address wasn’t plain but I could see
It had traveled far across the great Pacific
From My Filipino Rose across the sea
But I’m still praying that the trade wind sends you sailing across the blue
In my harbor of dreams you’ll anchor, where your lonely Filipino waits for you
The writing from her trembling hands was blurred
The paper it was sadly stained with tears
It read, they tell me you have wed another
After I have longed and waited all these years
But I’m still praying that the trade wind sends you sailing across the blue
In my harbor of dreams you’ll anchor, where your lonely Filipino waits for you
I promised her that I’d return someday
I told her she had won my heart and hand
I told her a line ‘cause I was lonely
Far from home a stranger in a foreign land
But I’m still praying that the trade wind sends you sailing across the blue
In my harbor of dreams you’ll anchor, where your lonely Filipino waits for you
She wrote, I’ve watched the driftwood float on by
I’ve watched the sea roll on its weary way
I have watched the silver sails out on the ocean
Hoping you might return to me someday
But I’m still praying that the trade wind sends you sailing across the blues
In my harbor of dreams you’ll anchor, where your lonely Filipino waits for you
The chains of my love may never set you free
But thru’ the years as memories fonder grow
This broken heart will always wait for you, dear
It was signed your lonely Filipino Rose
But I’m still praying that the trade wind sends you sailing across the blue
In my harbor of dreams you’ll anchor, where you Filipino waits for you

Goodbat Nightman
Goodbat Nightman
Composer(s): John Gorman;
Roger McGough; Mike McGear
Performer(s): The Scaffold
God bless all policemen and fighters of crime
May thieves go to jail for a very long time
They've had a hard day helping clean up the town
Now they hang from the mantle piece, both upside down
A glass of warm blood and then straight up the stairs
Batman and Robin are saying their prayers
Batman & Robin:
God bless Superman and Superwoman!
Aquaman and Aquawoman!
Ironman and Ironwoman!
Spiderman and Spiderwoman!
Plasticman and Plasticwoman!
Crazyman an-
Robin: B-b-Batman
Batman: Yes Robin
Robin: W-w-was there ever a Batwoman?
Batman: There was once, Boy Wonder, a long time back
Robin: Where is she now?
Batman: I'm afraid she's no longer with us
Robin: Oh, you mean...?
Batman: Yes, she's in the great belfry up there in the sky
Robin: Holy Saint Batwoman, what happened?
Batman: She rather foolishly got in the way of the batmobile
Robin: Suicide?
Batman: Batricide!
Robin: Gosh, why didn't I think of that
They've locked all the doors and they've put out the bat
(Meouw!)
Put on the batjamas
(We like doing that!)
Filled the batwater-bottles, made the batbeds
With two springy batrasses for sleepy batheads
They're closing red eyes and they're counting black sheep
Batman and Robin are falling asleep
(Door opens)
Robin: W-w-w-where are you going Batman?
Batman: The batroom!
Robin: Holyluya!
(Door closes)

My Brother Woody
My Brother Woody
Composer(s): Chris Dedrick
Performer(s): The Free Design; Bart Davenport
Hikin’ a football between his knees
runnin’ to catch a pass
Climbing up the friendly trees
fallin’ in the grass
My brother Woody
Singin’ a song and playin’ guitar
laughin’ at every goof
Tryin’ to touch the morning star
from the toolshed roof
My brother Woody
Don’t go away and leave the lights on
Curtain strings don’t get yanked
Gotta watch out for Mom "the Bomb"
Be good enough not to get spanked
My brother Woody

Filipino Baby
Filipino Baby
Composer(s): Billy Cox; Clark Van Ness; Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
and various other artists
When the warships left Manila, sailing proudly over the sea
All, the sailor’s hearts were filled with found regret
Looking backward to this island where they spent such happy hours
Making love to ev’er pretty girl they met
Then up step a little sailor with his bright eye’s all aglow
Saying, take a look at my gal’s photograph
Then the sailor’s gathered around him Just to look upon her face
And he said I love my Filipino Baby
She’s my Filipino Baby
She’s my treasure and my pet
Her teeth are bright and pearly
And her hair is black as jet
O’ her lips are sweet as honey
And her heart is true I know
She’s my darling little Filipino Baby
In a little rustic cottage in the far off Philippines
Dwells a lonely little maiden all alone
She is thinking of her true love, though he is far across the sea
And her heart beats true for him and him alone
Then one day he whispered "Darlin’ I’ve come back from Caroline"
"I’ve come back to claim the only girl I love"
Then that night there was a wedding while the ship’s crew gathered round
And he wed his little Filipino Baby
She’s my Filipino Baby
She’s my treasure and my pet
Her teeth are bright and pearly
And her hair is black as jet
O’ her lips are sweet as honey
And her heart is true I know
She’s my darling little Filipino Baby

Tears And Roses
Tears And Roses
Composer(s): Hank Hunter - Dick Heard
Performer(s): Al Martino; George Morgan
Tears and roses, tears and roses
Remind me that we're through but I'm still in love with you
(Tears and roses, tears and roses)
Today I passed a flower shop and in the window there
Were dozens of red roses like the ones you used to wear
I walked on by and when I saw a little baby cry
I thought about the tears that fell the day you said "Goodbye"
Tears and roses, tears and roses
Remind me that we're through but I'm still in love with you
(Tears and roses, tears and roses)
I think about the good old days when we were so in love
And I was still the only one that you were dreamin' of
I'd send a million roses and my tears would fill the sea
If all those tears and roses could bring you back to me
Tears and roses, tears and roses
Remind me that we're through but I'm still in love with you
Remind me that we're through but I'm still in love with you
(Tears and roses, tears and roses)

Bob:by Hope was a boy who liked girls with raven tresses

and though he was way off
He hasn't stopped trying yet
He was last seen in Tibet
You bet,chasing another brunette
Bob:
I got pally with Sally May O'Malley
Patting and pinching
right in her mothers kitchen
Again I had to lose out
Someone blew the fuse out
What can you do in the dark
Tell me, how about you babe?
Will you be my new babe?
My brand new favourite brunette?
Dorothy:

Must have a lot at his command
Bob:

And get advice from Dorothy: Dicks

To go with every pair of slacks

My name you will find on the tail of my shirt
I'm a Tennessee hustler, never do worse
I kiss a different woman with the fall of each dew
Always a-singing these good woman blues
I've been playing music back in Tennessee
Lot of women there, Lord, they think the world of me
Memphis and Nashville, Chattanooga too
Always a-singing these good woman blues
Good woman blues, Lord, they never get me down
Too many women always around
I strike like the lightning and bringing good news
Always a-singing these good woman blues
Well a woman in Dallas, she's on my mind
Texas women are the tie-me-down kind
I just keep on walking with my traveling shoes
Always singing these good woman blues
Well sunny California, I can hear you call
Got more women there than a freight train can haul
Your warm red wine and your sun is good news
Always a-singing these good woman blues
Good woman blues,Lord, they never get me down
Too many women always around
I strike like the lightning and bringing good news
Always a-singing these good woman blues

Guess this could be the end
Think you've really gone this time
I won't get no more of your love

Because the tears that you don't see
Are the tears behind my eyes
Tears that I can't disguise, so well
So well from you
Got to get to you again
If it takes up the whole day long
Got to make it right with you
Got to right all them wrongs
Because the tears that you don't see

Tears I can't disguise, so well
So well from you
Loving is what you did not get from me
Loving is what you're gonna get now
Just you wait
Wait and see

If it takes up the whole day long
Got to make it right with you
Got to right all them wrongs
'Cause the tears that you don't see

So well from you
Loving is what you did not get from me

Loving is what you did not get from me
Loving is what you're gonna get now, babe

Wait and see
Got to get to you again

Got to right all them wrongs
But the tears that you don't see
Are the tears behind my eyes

So well from you, babe

My Favorite Things
English & French Titles:
My Favorite Things; Mes Joies Quotidiennes
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers; Oscar Hammerstein II
(Originally performed by: Mary Martin)
Ich liebe Rosen und Wiesen und Kinder
Mag Kupferkessel auf Feuer nicht minder
Muss beim Zubettgeh'n den Abendstern seh'n
Liegen im weichen Bett finde ich schön
Ich liebe Ponys und mag Apfelstrudeln
Cremetorten, Kirschtorten, Schnitzel mit Nudeln
Wildgänse fliegend hoch über den Seen
Tiere im Wald und Feld finde ich schön
Ganz weiße Kleider mit blauseid'nen Schuhen
Schneeflocken, die auf den Zweigen sich ruhen
Silberne Winter und Berge in Höh'n
Sonnige Frühlingstag' finde ich schön
Wenn der Hund bellt und ist bissig
und ich bin verzagt
Ganz einfach sofort wird mein Kummer vergeh'n
Ich denke an das was schön

Tears
Tears
Performer(s): Sam Ash; Rudy Vallee; Ken Dodd
Tears for souvenirs are all you've left me
Memories of a love you never meant
I just can't believe you could forget me
After all those happy hours we spent together
Tears have been my only consolation
But tears can't mend a broken heart I must confess
Let's forgive and forget
Turn our tears of regret
Once more to tears of happiness
Tears have been my only consolation
But tears can't mend a broken heart I must confess
Let's forgive and forget
Turn our tears of regret
Once more to tears of happiness
Let's forgive and forget
Turn our tears of regret
Once more to tears of happiness

My Favorite Things
French & German Titles:
Mes Joies Quotidiennes; My Favorite Things
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers; Oscar Hammerstein II
Originally performed by: Mary Martin
Covered by various other artists
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites, when the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad

Tearoom Tango
Tearoom Tango
Performer(s): Wim Sonneveld
En hier dames en heren, hier komt een liefdesgeschiedenis uit Den Haag, getiteld "Tearoom Tango"
Toen ik jou de roze tearoom langzaam binnenschrijden zag
Met je kaalgesleten bontjas en je arrogante lach
Een afschuwelijk beeld van honger en ellende
Vroeg ik me af hoe ik jou in 's hemelsnaam herkende
Maar toen iedereen jou nakeek met die blik van oh-la-la
Dat moet vroeger iets geweest zijn van comme ça en ga maar na
En de ober zelfs een buiging voor je maakte
Toen voelde ik dat mijn verbittering ontwaakte
En terwijl je stilstond bij 't gebak
Was ik de jongen weer wiens jongenshartje brak
Je hebt me belazerd, je hebt me bedonderd
En wat me nu na al die jaren nog verwondert
Dat ik dat nooit vergeten zal al word ik honderd
Je hebt me belazerd, je hebt me bedonderd
't Zal zo'n dertig jaar geleden zijn dat ik jou stil aanbad
En in deze zelfde tearoom steeds op jou te wachten zat
En wanneer je dan na uren was gekomen
Noemde 'k jou de schone diva van m'n dromen
Na een jaar geheime liefde zei 'k nog steeds eerbiedig "u"
En ik mocht je af en toe eens kussen achter 't menu
Verder mocht ik niks 't was verdomd een schijntje
Je hield me steeds met je belofte aan 't lijntje
Tot ik plotseling ontdekte dat
Jij wel twintig and're tearoom-lovers had
Je hebt me belazerd, je hebt me bedonderd
En wat me nu na al die jaren nog verwondert
Dat ik dat nooit vergeten zal al word ik honderd
Je hebt me belazerd, je hebt me bedonderd
En nu zit je aan een tafeltje en vraagt me "mag ik thee"
En je attakeert m'n taartjes en wat kijk je weer gedwee
En je fluistert "jongen, haal me uit de nesten
Want het is of heel de wereld me wil pesten"
Je bent veel te dik gepoeierd en de mot zit in je hoed
En ik zie ook dat je huilt zoals een slecht actrice doet
Je pikt weer een sigaret en vraagt een vuurtje
En je zegt achter je zevende likeurtje
"Ach, je weet dat ik jou de liefste vond
Geef me wat geld, boy, want ik zit vreselijk aan de grond"
Dan zeg ik: "zit jij aan de grond?"
Da's heel belazerd, da's reuze bedonderd
Dat ik de liefste was is iets dat mij verwondert
Vraag het die anderen maar, je had 'r minstens honderd
Ober, ober, goedemiddag
Deze dame hier, ober, wou even alles afrekenen
Ja, 'k ben belazerd

My Favorite Dream
My Favorite Dream
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): Jan & Dean
Each time I call you up, you're always free
You break the dates you've got just to be with me
Gee whiz, that's not the way it is
But that's my favorite dream
You tell me I'm the type you can't resist
Your lips are always there, ready to be kissed
Gee whiz, that's not the way it is
But that's my favorite dream
(x2):
We spend each night together
But you don't even know
'Cause in spite of all my dreams
Somehow it seems
I'd never even dare to say hello
But I believe my dreams may still come true
Someday you're gonna show that you love me too
Gee whiz, that's not the way it is
But that's my favorite dream
Gee whiz, that's not the way it is
But that's my favorite dream
