The Day You Leave Me
The Day You Leave Me
Composer(s): Cy Coleman - C. Gore
Performer(s): Tony Bennett
On the day you leave me, it still will be spring
Roses will be blooming, and robins will sing
Subways will be running, doorbells will ring
And all in all, the sky won't fall
The sun won't suddenly grow colder
Without your arm around my shoulder
On the day you leave me, there still will be stars
Fog in San Francisco, and rockets to Mars
Balconies and moonlight, Spanish guitars
But will they be of any use to me?
For I know after you've gone, somehow, life will go on
How it will continue, I just don't have a clue
On the day I don't have you

Gualtier Maldè!.. Nome di lui siamato
ti scolpisci nel core innamorato!
Caro nome che il mio cor festi primo palpitar
Le delizie dell'amor mi dêi sempre rammentar!
Col pensier il mio desir a te sempre volerà
E fin l'ultimo sospir, caro nome, tuo sarà
Col pensier il mio desir a te sempre volerà
E fin l'ultimo mio sospir, caro nome, tuo sarà
Col pensier il mio desir a te sempre volerà
A te volerà, fin l'ultimo sospir, fin l'ultimo sospir, caro nome, tuo sarà
Caro nome tuo sarà, il mio desir a te ognora volerà
Fin l'ultimo sospiro tuo sarà!
Gualtier Maldè!.. Gualtier Maldè!..
Caro nome che il mio cor festi primo palpitar (Borsa: E là)
E fin l'ultimo sospir (Ceprano: Miratela) (Cortigiani: Oh, quanto è bella!)

Fixing To Live
Fixing To Live
Composer(s): Judy Pulver
Performer(s): Petula Clark
And I feel like
I'm fixing to live again
To love again
I feel like I'm home
And I feel just like
I know myself once more
When you walked out the door
The feeling was gone
And the moral is us
It can only be us
Get down on one
So down low
And even a smile would
Probably mean a great deal
With problems with
No place to go, no
And I feel like I'm
Fixing to live again
To love again
I feel like I'm home
I feel like I'm
Fixing to live again
Fixing to love again
I feel like I'm home
And the moral is us
It can only be us
Get down on one
So down low
And even a smile would
Probably mean a great deal
With problems with
No place to go, no
Oh, oh
Yeah
And I feel like I'm a tree
With a lot of leaves
Plenty more of these
So won't you take some
And I feel like
I've come a long way you know
Still a long way to go
That's how it's done
And the moral is us
It can only be us
Get down on one
So down low
And even a smile would
Probably mean a great deal
With problems with
No place to go, no
And I feel like
I'm fixing to live again
To love again
I feel like I'm home
I feel like
I'm fixing to live again
Fixing to love again
I feel like I'm home
I feel like
I'm fixing to live again
Fixing to love again
I feel like I'm home

The Day You Came Along
The Day You Came Along
Composer(s): Sam Coslow - Arthur Johnston
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
and multiple other artists
My heart went leaping
The day you came along
Forgot my weeping
The day you came along
Before I knew it I hummed a little song
The day you came along
I only drifted before you came along
The fog was lifted
Because you came along
I sent the blackbirds right back where they belong
The day you came along
Men have conquered nations
Other men have set them free
Pioneers across the sea
You can turn the pages through the ages but for me
Twas the most eventful day in history
Two souls were mated
The day you came along
A world created
The day you came along
One glance convinced me
I knew I wasn’t wrong
The day you came along
Two souls were mated
The day you came along
A world created
The day you came along
One glance convinced me
I knew I wasn’t wrong
The day you came along
Love came this day
The day you came along

Five Years
Five Years
Composer(s): David Bowie
Performer(s): David Bowie;
and various other artists
Pushing thru the market square, so many mothers sighing
News had just come over, we had five years left to cry in
News guy wept and told us, earth was really dying
Cried so much his face was wet, then I knew he was not lying
I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
I saw boys, toys electric irons and T.V.'s
My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things to store everything in there
And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people
And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people
I never thought I'd need so many people
A girl my age went off her head, hit some tiny children
If the black hadn't a-pulled her off, I think she would have killed them
A soldier with a broken arm, fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest, and a queer threw up at the sight of that
I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour, drinking milk shakes cold and long
Smiling and waving and looking so fine, don't think
you knew you were in this song
And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
And I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there
Your face, your race, the way that you talk
I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk
We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
Five years, what a surprise
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, that's all we've got
We've got five years, what a surprise
Five years, stuck on my eyes
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, that's all we've got
We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
Five years, what a surprise
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, that's all we've got
We've got five years, what a surprise
We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, that's all we've got
Five years
Five years

I know you
I walked with you once upon a dream
I know you

But if I know you
I know what you'll do
You'll love me at once
The way you did once
Upon a dream
But if I know you
I know what you'll do
You'll love me at once

Carnival In Kenora
Carnival In Kenora
Performer(s): Joni Mitchell
Twinkle, twinkle, what a pity
Alone alone on such a pretty night
With enchantment on your side
Popcorn, popcorn, cotton candy
Soft voice whispered, "This all can be right
If you come and share a ride"
Carnival in Kenora
I let him take me for a ride
On a giant Ferris wheel
Up in the neon sky
Or far from the barker's cry
One kiss can sometimes make you feel
Like a spinning Ferris wheel
All the tents are taken down now
All that's left is scuffled ground now
Still the magic echoes in the sand
Popcorn, popcorn, cotton candy
Now a stranger takes my hand; we smile
And the magic understands
Carnival in Kenora
I let him take me for a ride
On a giant Ferris wheel
Up in the neon sky
Or far from the barker's cry
One kiss can sometimes make you feel
Like a spinning Ferris wheel

The Day That Curly Billy Shot Down Crazy Sam McGee
The Day That Curly Billy Shot Down Crazy Sam McGee
Composer(s): Allan Clarke
Performer(s): The Hollies
Big tall man standing in the street
Gun hanging by his side
Just one man that he'd like to meet
That's when I began to hide
I recognised him from the face of his son
The hate in his eye didn't lie
Oh what I did can't be undone
Borrowed time there's none to buy
Well I hid round the back of a derelict shack
Ain't looking for a mad showdown
But he was smart, he'd already checked
A week in advance I'd paid down
Well the hotel clerk was a fun-loving man
The job he had it didn't pay
He told all about what happened that night
There he is, that's the one's all he'd say
Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping
On my bad neighbours doors
Crying curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
Let me in I gotta hide
Well everybody was crying, sighing sam mcgee's dying
No one to protect our town
Curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
He's gonna shoot your sherriff down
Big tall man standing in the street
Now a hand hovering waiting to slide
Drew out his gun it wasn't for fun
Let me in there's nowhere to hide
Well I made my play but it wasn't my day
I felt the ripping lead
That's when I knew my time was through
Rest in peace were the last words he said
Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping
On my bad neighbours doors
Crying curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
Let me in I gotta hide
Well everybody was crying, sighing sam mcgee's dying
No one to protect our town
Curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
He's gonna shoot your sherriff down
Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping
On my bad neighbours doors
Crying curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
Let me in I gotta hide
Well everybody was crying, sighing sam mcgee's dying
No one to protect our town
Curly billy silly with his colt he calls filly
He's gonna shoot your sherriff down

Five Short Minutes
Five Short Minutes
Composer(s): Jim Croce
Performer(s): Jim Croce; The Ventures
Well, she was standing by my dressing room
after the show
Asking for my autograph and asked if she could go
Back to my motel room. But the rest is just a tragic tale
Because five short minutes of lovin'
Done brought me twenty long years in jail
Well, like a fool in a hurry I took her to my room
She casted me in plaster while I sang her a tune
Then I said, "Ooh, ooee!" Sure was a tragic tale
Because five short minutes of lovin'
Done brought me twenty long years in jail
Well, then a judge and a jury sat me in a room
They say that robbin' the cradle is worse than robbin' the tomb
Then I said "Ooh, ooee!" Sure was a tragic tale
(Wasn't worth it, wasn't worth it!)
Because five short minutes of lovin'
Done brought me twenty long years in jail
And when I get out of this prison gonna be forty-five
I'll know I used to like to do it but I won't remember why
(Wasn't worth it, wasn't worth it!)
I'll say "Ooh, ooee! Sure was a tragic tale
Because five short minutes of lovin'
Done brought me twenty long years in jail
Because five short minutes of lovin'
Done brought me twenty long years in jail

Day Of Jubilo
Day Of Jubilo
Composer(s): Terry Gilkyson
Performer(s): Guy Mitchell
(Tell it to the preacher and the blessings flow
Tell it to the teacher, but he don’t know)
Tell it to the poor man under the hill
Tell it to the rich man makin’ his will
Tell it but you won’t know
Till the day of Jubilo
Oh the Devil, he makes it thunder
Every time he hollers loud
The sun draws up the water
And it rains right through the clouds
The eagle’s wings, they fly so high
They cause the wind to blow
Now the only thing that bogs my mind
I wonder what makes it snow
(Tell it to the preacher and the blessings flow
Tell it to the teacher, but he don’t know)
Tell it to the poor man under the hill
Tell it to the rich man makin’ his will
Tell it but you won’t know
Till the day of Jubilo
Oh, the sun sits up above me
The Heavens are all aglow
The Devil, he don’t love me
Got a place that we all know
The closer to the sun you climb
The hotter it’s gonna grow
Now the only thing that bogs my mind
How did it get hot below
(Tell it to the preacher and the blessings flow
Tell it to the teacher, but he don’t know)
Tell it to the poor man under the hill
Tell it to the rich man makin’ his will
Tell it but you won’t know
Till the day of Jubilo
I got my share of troubles
Trouble runnin’ everywhere
Blowin’ up like a bubble
Gonna bust itself a fare
Now I’ve got troubles of every kind
Brother that ain’t the half
The only thing that bogs my mind
I wonder what makes me laugh
(Tell it to the preacher, and the blessings flow
Tell it to the teacher, but he don’t know)
Tell it to the poor man under the hill
Tell it to the rich man makin’ his will
Tell it but you won’t know
Till the day of Jubilo
Till the day... of... Ju...bi...lo

Carnevale
Carnevale
Composer(s): M. Luberti - Riccardo Cocciante
Riccardo Cocciante
Un sorriso di più
O una lacrima in più
Mentre il tempo vola
Prima il bene e poi il male
Poi lo zucchero e il sale
Seccano la gola
Carnevale
E comincia cosi la mia recita
Salto fuori di questa mia scatola
E la mia faccia ride già
Carnevale
Basterà che io suoni un'armonica
Per riempire ogni cosa di musica
E tutto quando passerà
Oggi è festa se vuoi per consolarci
E festa se vuoi per aiutarci a cambiare la realtà
Un giorno di più
E anche un giorno di meno
Perché il tempo vola
Il silenzio fa male
Ma anche troppe parole
Seccano la gola
Carnevale
Se la vita mi sembra un po' stupida
Tolgo un asso da questa mia manica
E tutto quanto cambierà
Carnevale
Se ogni giorno mi sembra più inutile
Ballo fino a stancarmi anche l'anima
Che poi domani si vedrà
Oggi è festa se vuoi per consolarci
È festa se vuoi per aiutarci a cambiare la realtà
Carnevale
Per ognuno di noi c'è una maschera
Se nasconde un sorriso o una lacrima
Io non lo dico ma lo so

Five O'Clock World
Composer(s): Allen Reynolds
Performer(s): The Vogues;
and various other artists
Up every mornin' just to keep a job
I gotta fight my way through the hustling mob
Sounds of the city poundin' in my brain
While another day goes down the drain (yeah, yeah)
But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
No one owns a piece of my time
And there's a five o'clock me inside my clothes
Thinkin' that the world looks fine, yeah
(Scat: oh-de-lay-ee-ee, etc ...)
Tradin' my time for the pay I get
Livin' on money that I ain't made yet
I've been goin' tryin' to make my way
While I live for the end of the day (yeah, yeah)
Cuz it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
No one owns a piece of my time
There's a long-haired girl who waits, I know
To ease my troubled mind, yeah
(Scat: oh-de-lay-ee-ee, etc ...)
In the shelter of her arms everything's OK
When she talks then the world goes slippin' away
And I know the reason I can still go on
When every other reason is gone, (yeah, yeah)
In my five o'clock world she waits for me
Nothing else matters at all
Cuz every time my baby smiles at me
I know that's it's all worthwhile, yeah
