The Blackfly Song
The Blackfly Song
Composer(s): Wade Hemsworth
Performer(s): Wade Hemsworth
'Twas early in the spring when I decide to go
For to work up in the woods in North Ontario
And the unemployment office said they'd see me through
To the Little Abitibi with the survey crew
And the black flies, the little black flies
Always the black fly no matter where you go
I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' on my bones
In North Ontario, io, in North Ontario
Now the man Black Toby was the captain of the crew
And he said "I'm gonna tell you boys what we're gonna do
The want to build a power dam and we must find a way
For to make the little Ab flow around the other way"
So we survey to the east and we survey to the west
And we couldn't make our minds up how to do it best
Little Ab, Little Ab, what shall I do?
For I'm all but goin' crazy on the survey crew
And the black flies, the little black flies
Always the black fly no matter where you go
I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' on my bones
In North Ontario, io, in North Ontario
It was blackfly, blackfly, blackfly, everywhere
A-crawlin in your whiskers, a- crawlin in your hair
A-swimmin' in the soup and a-swimmin' in the tea
Oh the Devil take the blackfly and leave me be
And the black flies, the little black flies
Always the black fly no matter where you go
I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' on my bones
In North Ontario, io, in North Ontario
Black Toby fell to swearin' cuz the work went slow
And the state of our morale was a-gettin' mighty low
And the flies swarmed heavy; it was hard to catch a breath
As you staggered up and down the trail, talkin' to yourself
Now the bull cook's name was Blind River Joe
If it hadn't been for him, we'd've never pulled through
For he bound up our bruises and he kidded us for fun
And he lathered us with bacon grease and balsam gum
And the black flies, the little black flies
Always the black fly no matter where you go
I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' on my bones
In North Ontario, io, in North Ontario
At last the job was over; Black Toby said
"We're through with the Little Abitibi and the survey crew"
T'was a wonderful experience and this I know
I'll never go again to North Ontario
And the black flies, the little black flies
Always the black fly no matter where you go
I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' on my bones
In North Ontario, io, in North Ontario

Performer(s): Stevie Nicks
For no special reason
I am leaving you for awhile tonight
I'm flying far above you
Still I love you, you make things right
I've been with you before
I'll be with you again
I'll come back for more, yea
The story has a strange ending
Well, you know me I'm a nomad
I can't feel bad about the way I am
I've been rolling around my whole life
You're my candlebright in the window
You guide me back again
And I come when you shine
You are not my friend, no
But I am something of a dreamer
I am something of a dreamer
I am something of a dreamer
Well, you know me I'm a nomad
I can't feel bad about the way I am
I've been rolling around my whole life
You're my candlebright in the window
You guide me back again
And I come when you shine
You are not my friend, no
But I am something of a dreamer
I am something of a dreamer
I am something of a dreamer
Still I love you
My candlebright
You are not my friend
(In the window)
But still I love you
You're my candlebright
Still I love you
(In the window)
But you are not my friend
(My candlebright)
But still I love you
(In the window)
Still I love you
Still I love you
(I can't feel bad)
Still I love you

Feijoada Completa
Feijoada Completa
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Zeca Pagodinho
Mulher
Você vai gostar
Tô levando uns amigos pra conversar
Eles vão com uma fome que nem me contem
Eles vão com uma sede de anteontem
Salta cerveja estupidamente gelada prum batalhão
E vamos botar água no feijão
Mulher
Não vá se afobar
Não tem que pôr a mesa, nem dá lugar
Ponha os pratos no chão, e o chão tá posto
E prepare as lingüiças pro tiragosto
Uca, açúcar, cumbuca de gelo, limão
E vamos botar água no feijão
Mulher
Você vai fritar
Um montão de torresmo pra acompanhar
Arroz branco, farofa e a malagueta
A laranja-bahia ou da seleta
Joga o paio, carne seca, toucinho no caldeirão
E vamos botar água no feijão
Mulher
Depois de salgar
Faça um bom refogado, que é pra engrossar
Aproveite a gordura da frigideira
Pra melhor temperar a couve mineira
Diz que tá dura, pendura a fatura no nosso irmão
E vamos botar água no feijão

The Black-Eyed Boys
The Black-Eyed Boys
Performer(s): Paper Lace
Oh, the black-eyed boys
They motor-cycled into town
The people cried, it's the black-eyed gang
All in white, a super bang
Oh, the black-eyed boys
They laid a rockin' rhythm down
You feel the time starts to come alive
Ev'rytime the black-eyed boys arrive
Well now the leader of the band, he was the drummer
He did a rhythm like a big tattoo
And you can see he put all his heart and soul in
The lead guitar, he sat astride a rubber hummer
And in behind there was a bass boy, too
They pretty soon had the hole town rock and rollin'
Ev'rybody
Oh, the black-eyed boys
They had 'em dancin' in the street
They rocked along from the mornin' light
On and on into the night
And oh, the black-eyed boys
They kept the people on their feet
Cryin' oh, let it never end
Wanna hear the black eyed-boys again
Oh, the black-eyed boys
Layin' down a rockin' noise
Oh, the heart right black-eyed boys
Oh, the black-eyed boys
They had 'em dancin' in the street
They rocked along from the mornin' light
On and on into the night
And oh, the black-eyed boys
They kept the people on their feet
Cryin' oh, let it never end
Wanna hear the black-eyed boys again
Oh, the black-eyed boys
Oh, the black-eyed boys
Rock and rollin' - rock and rollin' - rock and rollin'
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh, the black-eyed boys...

Candle Of Life
Candle Of Life
Composer(s): John Lodge
Performer(s): The Moody Blues
Something you can't hide
Says you're lonely
Hidden deep inside
Of you only
It's there for you to see
Take a look and be
Burn slowly the candle of life
Something there outside
Says we're only
In the hands of time
Falling slowly
It's there for us to know
With love that we can go
Burn slowly the candle of life
So love everybody
And make them your friends
So love everybody
And make them your friends
Something you can't hide
Says you're lonely
Hidden deep inside
Of you only
It's there for you to see
Take a look and be
Burn slowly the candle of life
Something there outside
Says we're only
In the hands of time
Falling slowly
It's there for us to know
With love that we can go
Burn slowly the candle of life

Lowell George; Martin Kibbee
Performer(s): Little Feat;
Paul Barrère; Taj Mahal
Your daddy says I'm no good
Your momma says keep away
Got to tell you truthful girl you can never make me stay
I got something up and down this coast
Bet you my last dollar girl I can love your love the most
Don't the sunrise look so pretty
Never such a sight
Like a rollin' into New York City
With the skyline in the morning light
Roll right through the night
Roll
Roll right through the night
I said Roll
Semi-smokin mama, you got to give me some
Heard you got the biggest -- hmm -- the biggest truck in town
Right on through to Baltimore you got to love me now
Got to do me gently, well it's feets don't fail me now
Don't fail me, feets don't fail me now
Don't the sunrise look so pretty
Never such a sight
Like a rollin' into New York City
With the skyline in the morning light
Roll right through the night
I said roll
Roll right through the night
Roll right through the night

Blackboard Of My Heart
Blackboard Of My Heart
Composer(s): Lyle Gaston - Hank Thompson
Performer(s): Hank Thompson; Daniel O'Donnell
When I was young and went to school
They taught me how to write
To take the chalk and make a mark
And hope it turns out right
Well that's the way it is with love
And what you did to me
I wrote it so you'd know
That I was yours eternally
But my tears have washed I love you
From the blackboard of my heart
It's too late to clean the slate
And make another start
I'm satisfied the way things are
Although we're far apart
My tears have washed I love you from
The blackboard of my heart
If you'd been true the way you should
And not have gone astray
These tears would not have fallen down
And washed the words away
No need to talk, 'cause if the chalk
Should write those words again It will be for someone else
Not things that might have been
But my tears have washed I love you
From the blackboard of my heart
It's too late to clean the slate
And make another start
I'm satisfied the way things are
Although we're far apart
My tears have washed I love you from
The blackboard of my heart

Candle In The Wind
Candle In The Wind
((Dutch Version: Treurlied Voor Agalev (by Tom Van Stiphout en Paul Poelmans) - 2003))
Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin
First release by: Elton John - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

Feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
Ha-ha!
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
Ain't seen a babe like this before
He's so good-lookin', gonna have some more
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
Hey-hey, now I've been known to gamble
And take a little drink
Then there's the night I had a fight
And landed in the clink
But now my rootin' tootin' days are done
Gotta be the man
That he thinks I am
'Cause I love my son
Oh, feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
Ha-ha!
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
Ain't seen a babe like this before
He's so good-lookin', gonna have some more
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
Hey-hey, I've known a lot of women
When I was on the go
They'd stand in line to drink my wine
And help me spend my dough
But my wife Rosie ain't that kind
Got her to thank
For a buck in the bank
An' this kid of mine
(Instrumental)
(Ha-ha-ha!)

(Ha-ha-ha!)
(Ha, ha, ha-ha-ha, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
(Instrumental)
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha , ha,)
I'm gonna do some braggin'
Up and down the town
I'm walkin' into joints I knew
And passin' news around
That me and Rosie got a son
Though he's just been born
Gonna buy him a horn
A baseball and drum
Oh, feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
Ha-ha!
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
Ain't seen a babe like this before
He's so good-lookin', gonna have some more
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
He-he's as tiny as a peanut
And yet I do declare
Some day he'll look at me and say
"Hey, how you doin' down there?"
He'll be good-hearted like his Ma
But I bet he'll be a lady-killer
Just like his Pa
Oh, feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
Ha-ha!
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
Ain't seen a babe like this before
He's so good-lookin', gonna have some more
Feet up, pat him on the po-po
Let's hear him laugh
(Let's hear him laugh)

Feels Like The First Time
Feels Like The First Time
Composer(s): Mick Jones
Performer(s): Foreigner;
Dave Baldwin; Daughtry; Millie Jackson
I would climb any mountain, sail across the stormy sea
If that's what it takes me baby, to show how much you mean to me
And I guess that it's just the woman in you, that brings out the man in me
I know I can't help myself, you're all in the world to me
Chorus:
It feels like the first time, feels like the very first time
It feels like the first time, it feels like the very first time
I have waited a lifetime, spent my time so foolishly
But now that I found you, together we'll make history
And I know that it must be the woman in you, that brings out the man in me
I know I can't help myself, you're all my eyes can see
And it feels like the first time, like it never did before
Feels like the first time, like we've opened up the door
Feels like the first time, like it never will again, never again
Repeat Chorus
Open up the door, won't you open up the door
Repeat Chorus.....

The Black Angel's Death Song
The Black Angel's Death Song
Composer(s): John Cale - Lou Reed
First release by: The Velvet Underground & Nico - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists
The myriad choices of his fate
Set themselves out upon a plate
For him to choose
What had he to lose
Not a ghost bloodied country
All covered with sleep
Where the black angel did weep
Not an old city street in the east
Gone to choose
And wandering’s brother
Walked on through the night
With his hair in his face
On a long splintered cut from the knife of g.t.
The rally man’s patter ran on through the dawn
Until we said so long
To his skull-shrill yell
Shining brightly red-rimmed and
Red-lined with the time
Infused with the choice of the mind
On ice skates scraping chunks
From the bells
Cut mouth bleeding razor’s
Forgetting the pain
Antiseptic remains cool goodbye
So you fly
To the cozy brown snow of the east
Gone to choose, choose again
Sacrificials remains make it hard to forget
Where you come from
The stools of your eyes
Serve to realize fame, choose again
And roverman’s refrain of the sacrilege recluse
For the loss of a horse
Went the bowels and a tail of a rat
Come again, choose to go
And if epiphany’s terror reduced you to shame
Have your head bobbed and weaved
Choose a side to be on
If the stone glances off
Split didactics in two
Leave the colors of the mouse trails
Don’t scream, try between
If you choose, if you choose, try to lose
For the loss of remain come and start
Start the game I che che che che i
Che che ka tak koh
Choose to choose
Choose to choose, choose to go

The stars won't come out if they know that you're about
'Cause they couldn't match the glow of your eyes

Tryin' hard to win me first prize
Oh, my Candida
We could make it together
The further from here, girl, the better
Where the air is fresh and clean
Candida
Just take my hand and I'll lead ya
I promise life will be sweeter
'Cause it said so in my dreams
The future looks bright, the gypsy told me so last night
Said she saw our children playing in the sunshine
And there were you and I ... in a house, Baby, no lie
And all these things were yours, and they were mine
Oh, my Candida
We could make it together
The further from here, girl, the better
Where the air is fresh and clean
Candida
Just take my hand and I'll lead ya
I promise life will be sweeter
'Cause it said so in my dreams
Oh, my Candida

Looks like my heart has found someone

A sweet little lady you could guess
As her birthday drew near, I want you to hear

And all the lords and the ladies said
