That's My Girl
That’s My Girl
Composer(s): Duke Ellington - Ray Ellington - Barbara Tobias
Performer(s): Nat King Cole
That’s my girl, Take a look at her she belongs to me
Yes that’s my girl, hand off, don’t touch
She looks just like an angel
But she’s human all the same
So I’m not taking chances
I won’t tell her address or even her name
‘Cos that’s my girl
I’m adding her to my family
And I love that girl and everything’s fine
So until the day that she says “Yes”
I’m keeping my fingers crossed
‘Cos that’s my girl, and she’s gonna stay mine
That’s my girl, you hear me
I’m adding her to my family
And I love that girl and everything’s fine
So until the day that she says “Yes”
I’m keeping my fingers crossed
‘Cos that’s my girl and she’s gonna stay mine
She’s all mine, every curve and line
And even those dark brow curls
Now lay off... that’s my girl

Caçada
Caçada
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Bebel Gilberto; Mestre Ambrósio
Não conheço seu nome ou paradeiro
Adivinho seu rastro e cheiro
Vou armado de dentes e coragem
Vou morder sua carne selvagem
Varo a noite sem cochilar, aflito
Amanheço imitando o seu grito
Me aproximo rondando a sua toca
E ao me ver você me provoca
Você canta a sua agonia louca
Água me borbulha na boca Minha presa rugindo sua raça
Pernas se debatendo e o seu fervor
Hoje é o dia de graça
Hoje é o dia da caça e do caçador
Eu me espicho no espaço feito um gato
Pra pegar você, bicho do mato
Saciar a sua avidez mestiça
Que ao me ver se encolhe e me atiça
Que num mesmo impulso me expulsa e abraça
Nossas peles grudando de suor
Hoje é o dia da graça
Hoje é o dia da caça e do caçador
De tocaia fico a espreitar a fera
Logo dou-lhe o bote certeiro
Já conheço seu dorso de gazela
Cavalo brabo montado em pelo
Dominante, não se desembaraça
Ofegante, é dona do seu senhor
Hoje é o dia da graça
Hoje é o dia da caça e do caçador

Factory Girl
Factory Girl
Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards
Performer(s): The Rolling Stones;
and various other artists
Waiting for a girl who's got curlers in her hair
Waiting for a girl she has no money anywhere
We get buses everywhere
Waiting for a factory girl
Waiting for a girl and her knees are much too fat
Waiting for a girl who wears scarves instead of hats
Her zipper's broken down the back
Waiting for a factory girl
Waiting for a girl and she gets me into fights
Waiting for a girl we get drunk on Friday night
She's a sight for sore eyes
Waiting for a factory girl
Waiting for a girl and she's got stains all down her dress
Waiting for a girl and my feet are getting wet
She ain't come out yet
Waiting for a factory girl

That's My Desire
That's My Desire
Composer(s): Helmy Kressa - Carroll Loveday
First release by: Russell Wooding's Red Caps - 1931
Covered by multiple other artists
To spend one night with you
In our old rendezvous
And reminisce with you
That's my desire
To meet where gypsies play
Down in that dim café
And dance till break of day
That's my desire
We'll sip a little glass of wine
And I'll gaze into your eyes divine
I'll feel the touch of your lips
Pressing on mine
To hear you whisper low
Just when it's time to go
"Cherie, I love you so"
"You're my desire"
To hear you whisper low
Just when it's time to go
"Cherie, I love you so"
"You're my desire"
"You're my desire"

Cable A Tierra
Cable A Tierra
Composer(s): Fito Páez
Performer(s): Fito Páez; Abel Pintos
Si estas entre volver no volver
si ya metiste demasiado en tu nariz
si estas como cegado de poder
tirate un cable a tierra
y si tu corazón ya no va mas
si ya no existe conexión con los demás
si estas igual que un barco en alta mar
tirate un cable a tierra
y yo estoy acercándome hasta vos
bajo la luna, bajo la luna
las cosas son así
tengo el teléfono del freak
que esta deseoso de volarte la cabeza
en un par de minutos sale el sol
si ya no hay nada que anestesie tu dolor
si no llegas, si no alcanzas a verme
tirate un cable a tierra
no creas que perdió sentido todo
no dificultes la llegada del amor
no hables de mas, escucha el corazón
ese es el cable a tierra

Factory
Factory
Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen
Performer(s): Bruce Springsteen;
Arizona Smoke Revue; Kevin Kinsella;
Melissa McClelland; The Mighty Echoes
Early in the morning factory whistle blows
Man rises from bed and puts on his clothes
Man takes his lunch, walks out in the morning light
It's the working, the working, just the working life
Through the mansions of fear
through the mansions of pain
I see my daddy walking
through them factory gates in the rain
Factory takes his hearing, factory gives him life
The working, the working, just the working life
End of the day, factory whistle cries
Men walk through these gates with death in their eyes
And you just better believe, boy
somebody's gonna get hurt tonight
It's the working, the working, just the working life

Composer(s): J.D. Miller
First release by: Lou Millet & His Melody Ramblers - 1951
Covered by multiple other artists
A night with no moonlight
A day with no sun
A plane with no pilot
A watch that won't run
A tree with no branches
A rose with no dew
A boy with no sweetheart
That's me without you
A train with no whistle
A car with no gas
A well with no water
A show with no cast
A love with no future
A sky with no blue
A boy with no sweetheart
That's me without you
A bank with no money
A top that won't spin
A book with no story
A love I can't win
A chair with no bottom
A rig with no crew
A song with no music
That's me without you
A train with no whistle
A car with no gas
A well with no water
A show with no cast
A court with no jury
A church with no pew
A boy with no sweetheart
That's me without you

Cabin On The Hill
Cabin On The Hill
Composer(s): Bolivar Lee Shook
Performer(s): The Mullins Family
and multiple other artists
There's a happy childhood home in my mem'ry I can see
Standing out upon the hill neath the shadow of the tree
If I only had my way, it would give my heart a thrill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
Oh, I want to wander back to the cabin on the hill
Neath the shadow of the tree I would like to linger still
Just to be with those I love, joy my heart would overfill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
But the saddest of it all, I can never more return
To that happy childhood home, matters not how much I yearn
If I only had my way, it would give my heart a thrill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
Oh, I want to wander back to the cabin on the hill
Neath the shadow of the tree I would like to linger still
Just to be with those I love, joy my heart would overfill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
Oh, I want to wander back to the cabin on the hill
Neath the shadow of the tree I would like to linger still
Just to be with those I love, joy my heart would overfill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill

Facing The Wind
Facing The Wind
Composer(s): Nico
Performer(s): Nico
It's holding me against my will
And doesn't leave me still
Amazons are riding out
To find a meaning for
The name, my name
In the rain
My spinning on my Name
In the rain, in the rain
When did it begin?
When did it begin?
Why am I not facing the wind?
My mother and my brother
Are facing the wind
Why are they facing the wind?
Why are they facing the wind?
There's nothing more to sing about
Not now or when they carry me away
In the rain
My spinning on my name in the rain
My spinning on my name in the rain
In the rain
When did it begin?
When did it begin?
Why are they facing the wind?

That's Love
That's Love
Composer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan
Performer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan
Once in a while, out of the blue
I might appear somewhat rude
But don't be alarmed or get upset
Just say to yourself this I'll forget
And when I come home after being away
It might do me good just to hear you say
Darlin' don't move an inch, keep perfectly still
Now do with me what you will
Sometime ago before we met
I vowed to myself that I'd never let
No-one at all ever tie me down
Never dreaming that I'd see you around
Now isn't it strange wherever you go
It's always the same with whoever you know
Which just goes to prove what I've been trying to say
Looking at you the way I do (that's love)
Promising always to be true (that's love)
Giving each other a helping hand (that's love)
Sharing each other's every plan, that's love
And in love you do
And isn't it strange wherever you go
It's always the same with whoever you know
Which just goes to prove what I've been dying to say
Holding you now the way I do (that's love)
Knowing full well you want me to (that's love)
Telling each other how we feel (that's love)
Knowing inside it must be real, that's love
And in love it's true

Cabin In The Sky (Ethel Waters & Dooley Wilson)
Cabin In The Sky
Composer(s): Vernon Duke - John Latouche
First performance by: Ethel Waters & Dooley Wilson - 1940
Covered by multiple other artists
In this cloudy sky overhead now
There's no guiding star I can see
And I would be lost by each wild tempest tossed
Oh, if I didn't know of a place we two can go ...
There's a little cabin in the sky, Mister
For me and for you
I feel that it's true somehow
Can't you see that cabin in the sky, Mister
An acre or two of heavenly blue to plow
We will be oh so gay
Eat fried chicken every day
As the angels go sailing by
And that is why my heart is flyin' high, Mister
'Cause I know we'll have a cabin in the sky
We will be oh so gay
Eat fried chicken every day
As the angels go sailing by
That is why my heart is flying high, baby
'Cause I know we'll have a cabin in the sky

Face To Face (Siouxsie And The Banshees)
Face To Face
Composer(s): Danny Elfman - Siouxsie And The Banshees
Performer(s): Siouxsie And The Banshees
Face to face
my lovely foe
Mouth to mouth
raining heaven's blows
Hand on heart
tic tac toe
Under the stars
naked as we flow
Cheek to cheek
the bitter sweet
Commit your crime in your deadly time
Commit your crime in your deadly time
It's too divine
I want to bend
I want this bliss but something says I must resist
Another life
another time
We're Siamese twins writhing intertwined
Face to face
no telling lies
The masks they slide to reveal a new disguise
You never can win
it's the state I'm in
This danger thrills and my conflict kills
They say follow your heart
follow it through
But how can you
when you're split in two?
And you'll never know
You'll never know
One more kiss
before we die
Face to face
and dream of flying
Who are you?
who am I?
Wind in wings
two angels falling
To die like this
with a last kiss
It's falsehood's flame
it's a crying shame
Face to face
the passions breathe
I hate to stay but then I hate to leave
And you'll never know
You'll never know ...

That's Life I Guess
That's Life I Guess
Composer(s): Peter de Rose - Sam M. Lewis
Performer(s): Billie Holiday
and multiple other artists
Sometimes I wonder what’s in store for me
Your love could open heaven’s door to me
But you don’t care a straw for me
That’s life, I guess
My days and nights are stark and hard with you
My sugar kisses taste like salt to you
But why should I find fault with you?
That’s life, I guess
The world was bright when you loved me
Sweet was the touch of your lips
The world went dark when you left me
And then there came a total eclipse
Nobody knows how cruel fate can be
How close together love and hate can be
Goodbye, just clean the slate for me
That’s life, I guess

Cabin In The Sky (Fats Waller)
Cabin In The Sky
Composer(s): Johnny Burke - Edgar Leslie
Performer(s): Fats Waller
In the cabin high in the sky
It was the cabin of a passenger plane
And I was dreaming of a castle in Spain
When I laid eyes on you
In the cabin high in the sky
The day was cloudy, there was rain in the air
And as you sat there in the opposite chair, oh baby
Your sunny smile came through
There was an invitation in the note you gave me
I couldn't very well refuse
And from the moment that you started to enslave me
I had everything to win, nothin' to lose
In the cabin high in the sky
'Twas like a dreamhouse in the heavenly glow
I saw an angel and I let myself go
I fell in love with you

Face The Fire
Face The Fire
Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg
Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg
I hear the thunder
Three miles away
The island's leaking
Into the bay
The poison is spreading
The demon is free
And people are running from
What they can't even see
Face the fire
You can't turn away
The risk grows greater
With each passing day
The waiting's over
The moment has come
To kill the fire
And turn to the sun
They'll take your money
And then take your health
To line their pockets with
Unequaled wealth
These men are under
The power of gold
We won't be safe until we
Shut them down cold
Face the fire
You can't turn away
The risk grows greater
With each passing day
The waiting's over
The moment has come
To kill the fire
And turn to the sun
The people came to the capitol town
One hundred thousand of them
Laid their hearts down
They screamed in anger
And broadcast their fears
Just to have them
Fall on deaf ears

That's Life
That's Life
Composer(s): Kelly Gordon - Dean Kay
First release by: Marian Montgomery - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
That's life, that's what all the people say
You're riding high in April
Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June
I said that's life, and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this fine ol' world it keeps spinning around
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate
A poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself, flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life
I tell ya, I can't deny it
I thought of quitting baby
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate
A poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself laying flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life
That's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shakin' come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, My

Cabaretera
Performer(s): Raphael
Yo soy un hombre pobre
Soy muy poco para ti
Pero te quiero tanto, tanto y tanto
Mi amor es tan sincero
Y tú soñando como sueñas
Con lujos y riquezas
Ni te fijas en mí
Cabaretera
No olvides que te quiero
Te quiero en mi pobreza
Y nunca he de cambiar
Cabaretera
Mi dulce arrabalera
Te quiero con el alma
Y nunca he de cambiar
A Dios tan sólo pido
Que tus sueños y caprichos
Con lágrimas no tengas que pagar
El cielo será cielo
La tierra será tierra
La vida será siempre igual
Cabaretera
No olvides que yo te quiero
Te quiero en mi pobreza
Y nunca he de cambiar

Mi novia arrabalera
Te quiero con el alma
Y nunca he de cambiar

Face The Face
Face The Face
Composer(s): Pete Townsend
Performer(s): The Who; Champ!
We've got to face the face
You must have heard the cautionary tales
The dangers hidden on the cul-de-sac trails
>From wiser men who have been through it all
And the ghosts of failures spray-canned up on the wall
We've got to judge the judge
Got to find the finds
We've got to scheme the schemes
Have to line the lines
We must stake the stakes
And show the shown
We must take the takes
And know the known
Try to place the place
Where we can face the face
Face the face-got to
Face the face
You must have tried and the defied belief
Maybe found futility in insular grief
I need your hunger just as you need mine
A million appetites can swallow up time
We've got to fool the fools
And plan the plans
We must rule the rules
Got to stand the stands
We must fight the fight
And fall the falls
We must light the light
And call the calls
We must race the race
So we can face the face
New York! Chicago!
London and Glasgow!
Keep looking!
Keep on cooking
Keep on looking
Gotta stay on this case
Study the pix
Watch the fix
We've got to find the face
Try to place the place where we can face the face
