The Donkey Serenade
The Donkey Serenade
((Adapted from: Chansonnette (Rudolf Friml) - 1923))
Composer(s): Rudolf Friml - Herbert Stothart - Robert Wright - George Forrest
Performer(s): Allan Jones - 1937
and multiple other artists
There's a song in the air
But the fair senorita doesn't seem to care
For the song in the air
Oh, I'll sing to the mule
If you're sure she won't think that I am just a fool
Serenading a mule
Amigo mio, does she not have a dainty bray?
(Boy:) Que, esta?
(Jones:) She listens carefully to each little tune you play
(Boy:) Oh, la bella senorita!
(Jones:) Si, si, mi muchachito
She'd love to sing it too if only she knew the way
But try as she may, in her voice there's a flaw
And all that the lady can say
Is hee-haw-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w
Senorita, donkey's feet are
Not so fleet as a mosquito
But so sweet like my chiquita
You're the one for me!
There's a light in her eye
Though she may try to hide it, she cannot deny
There's a light in her eye
Oh, the charm of her smile
So beguiled Don Diego that he rode a mile
For the charm of her smile
Amigo mio, is she listening to my song?
(Boy:) Que, esta?
(Jones:) No, no, mi muchachito, how can you be so wrong?
(Boy:) Si, la bella senorita!
(Jones:) Si, si, la senorita
She'd love to sing it too if only she knew the way
Her face is a dream, like an angel I saw
And all that my darling can scream
Is hee-haw-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w
Senorita, donkey's feet are
Not so fleet as a mosquito
But so sweet like my chiquita
You're the one for me!
Ole!

Carry On Wayward Son
Carry On Wayward Son
Composer(s): Kerry Livgren
First release by: Kansas - 1976
Covered by multiple other artists
Carry on my wayward son
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Now don't you cry no more
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond the illusion
I was soaring ever higher, but I flew too high
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreamin'
I can hear them say
Carry on my wayward son
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Now don't you cry no more
Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, it surely
means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune, but
I hear the voices say
Carry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
Surely heaven waits for you
Carry on my wayward son
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Now don't you cry no more

Flickan Och Kråkan
Flickan Och Krakan
Composer(s): Mikael Wiehe
Performer(s): Sofia Karlsson
Jag satt häromdagen och läste min tidning
en dag som så många förut
Och jag tänkte på alla dom drömmar man drömt
som en efter en har ta'tt slut
Då såg jag en bild av en flicka
med en skadskjuten kråka i famn
Hon springer iväg genom skogen
så fort som hon bara nånsin kan
Hon springer med fladdrande lockar
hon springer på taniga ben
Och hon hoppas och tror och hon bönar och ber
att det inte skall vara försent
Och flickan är liten och hennes hår är så ljust
och hennes kind är så flämtande röd
Och kråkan är klumpig och kraxande svart
och om en stund är den alldeles död
Men flickan hon springer för livet
med en skadskjuten kråka i famn
Hon springer mot trygghet och värme
för det som är riktigt och sant
Hon springer med tindrande ögon
hon springer på taniga ben
För hon vet att det är sant, det som pappa har sagt
att finns det liv, är det aldrig försent
Och jag började darra i vånda och nöd
jag skaka av rädsla och skräck
För jag visste ju alldeles tydligt och klart
att det var bilden av mig som jag sett
För mitt hopp är en skadskjuten kråka
och jag är ett springande barn
som tror det finns nå'n som kan hjälpa mig än
som tror det finns nå'n som har svar
Och jag springer med bultande hjärta
jag springer på taniga ben
Och jag bönar och ber, fast jag egentligen vet
att det redan är all'es för sent

The Dollar Bill Song
The Dollar Bill Song
Composer(s): Andy Breckman
Performer(s): Andy Breckman
She took a dollar bill from her wallet
She picked up a fountain pen
She wrote down the words 'I love you'
Next to the picture of George Washington
She took the dollar bill to the grocery store
And bought herself a chocolate cake
She gave the dollar bill to the grocery man
And then she went back home to wait
The grocery man gave the dollar bill
To a fat guy from Baton Rouge
He spent the bill at the hardware store
On a box of flat-top screws
The hardware store gave the dollar bill
To a customer named Clive
Who, by the way, is the son
Of one of the original Dave Clark Five
He spent the bill at the laundramat
They gave it to a lady named Fran
Fran's younger son stole the bill from her purse
And went to see Star Wars again
The movie theatre guy spent the dollar bill
On a subway ride uptown
Three minutes later the bill was in the pocket
Of a gamblin' man named Brown
Brown blew the bill in a poker game
He was fishin' for an inside straight
The dollar went home with a man named Jones
Who was sitting on a pair of eights
Jones took the bill to a savings bank
The teller's name was Dan
Dan gave the bill to
Oh my God, it's Rabbi Finkelman
I'm with you all the time
I can hear ya loud and clear
Just give a tug along the line
Ya know I will be there
Anyway the Rabbi spent the bill
On a ham and cheese to go
They gave the bill to a guy named Phil
Who gave it to his best friend Joe
Joe had planned to spend it
On some flowers for his bride
But he was mugged by a junkie named Doug
In the parking lot outside
Doug's old lady spent the bill
On a couple o' cans o' beer
She eventually becomes a very famous poet
But that don't matter here
The liquor store guy put the dollar bill
In his register, but then
Doug the junkie said "Stick 'em up"
And the dollar was his again
He gave the bill to a girl named Jill
Who gave it to a girl named Flo
She gave the bill to a real short guy
Who's name I do not know
He gave the bill to another short guy
Who gave it to a guy named Jake
Jake took the bill to a bar 'n' grill
And bought himself a sirloin steak
Later that day I happened to say
"Think I'll stop by the bar 'n' grill"
The cashier counted out my change
And handed me the dollar bill
Well I ran to a phone and I dialled in her number
As fast as my fingers could do
I said "Baby, I just got your message"
I said "Baby,I love you too"
I said, I am with you all the time
I can hear you loud and clear
Just give a tug along the line
You know I will be there"
I said, Mary, you don't need no dime
You don't need no subway fare
Just give a tug along the line
I said I'm with you everywhere
I said I'm with you everywhere
I said I'm with you everywhere

Carry On ((aka Questions (Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young) - 1970))
Composer(s): Kerry Livgren - Stephen Stills
First release by: Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young - 1970
and multiple other artists
One morning I woke up and I knew
You were really gone
A new day, a new way, I knew
I should see it along
Go your way, I'll go mine and
Carry on
The sky is clearing and the night
Has gone out
The sun, he come, the world
is all full of light
Rejoice, rejoice, we have no choice but
To carry on
The fortunes of fables are able
To sing the song
Now witness the quickness with which
We get along
To sing the blues you've got to live the tunes and
Carry on
Carry on
Love is coming
Love is coming to us all
Where are you going now my love?
Where will you be tomorrow?
Will you bring me happiness?
Will you bring me sorrow?
Oh, the questions of a thousand dreams
What you do and what you see
Lover can you talk to me?
Girl when I was on my own
Chasing you down
What was it made you run?
Trying your best just to get around
The questions of a thousand dreams
What you do and what you see
Lover can you talk to me?

À mon amour qui m'a tout pardonné
Souvent je lui donne

Fleurs d'amour ouais fleurs d'amour...

Second street and broadway
Sitting in a doorway
Head held in his hands

Then I heard the words that he was saying
He said

But I know I can make it if I lean on you so
Come on carrie, carry me a little

Come on carrie carry me.. a little while yeah
He stumbled to his feet and he staggered down the street
To the window of a five and dime
He stopped and laughed a while at his reflection
Then I heard him shouting something 'bout a mountain
He could surely climb, if she was only there to point
The right direction
(But she ain't no.. no she ain't nooooo)
Come on carrie carry me a little farther
Come on carrie carry me one more mile

Fleur De Lune
(Adapted from: Song of Winter - 1969)
Composer(s): Françoise Hardy - Micky Jones - Tommy Brown
Performer(s): Françoise Hardy - 1970
Suis-je la fleur de lune
Ou bien l'eau qui dort
Je suis née dans une brume
Là où le vent vient du nord
Suis-je l'herbe sauvage
Ou le ciel de pluie
Viens te prendre à mon mirage
Te noyer dans mes yeux gris
Ou que tu sois je t'appelle
Je sais que tu m'entends
Je sais qu'il faudra que tu viennes
Ma cage est grande ouverte et ma prison t'attends
Suis-je l'étoile ou l'algue
Suis-je le faut semblant
Viens t'enrouler dans mes vagues
Elles ont comme un gout de sang
Ou que tu sois je t'appelle
Je sais que tu m'entends
Je sais qu'il faudra que tu viennes
Ma cage est grande ouverte et ma prison t'attends
Suis-je la fleur de lune
Ou bien l'eau qui dort
Suis-je l'herbe sauvage
Ou le ciel de pluie
Viens dans mon mirage
Au fond de mon nid

The Doctor
The Doctor
Composer(s): Tom Johnston - Charlie Midnight - Eddie Schwartz
Performer(s): The Doobie Brothers
I'm a man who lives in the city
I'm a man who lives in the street
From F.L.A. to Frisco Bay
And everywhere in between
Coast to coast there's a question
Everybody's always askin' me
People want to know everywhere I go
What can the answer be
Music is the doctor
Makes you feel like you want to
Listen to the doctor
Just like you ought to
Music is the doctor of my soul
Well it seems that when I travel
And I'm out there on the road
The freedom I need is the freedom I leave
In my good time rock and roll
There's a healing in those guitars
And a spirit in the song
No matter what condition your rhythm is in
The message goes on and on
Music is the doctor
Makes you feel like you want to
Listen to the doctor
Just like you ought to
Music is the doctor of my soul
If you ever wonder
How to shake your blues
Just follow this prescription
And get the cure for what's ailin' you
Music is the doctor
Makes you feel like you want to
Listen to the doctor
Just like you ought to
Music is the doctor of my soul

Carry Me Home
Carry Me Home
Composer(s): Chris Hillman - Steve Hill
Performer(s): Chris Hillman
It's late I can't sleep
There's a voice calling me
Here it comes again and I don't know why I know it
Will she ever set me free
Will she tell me something new and make me hear the night
Make me belive again
It'll be alright
All the walls came tumbling down
The sky opened up and took her in
No time to gather no time to win
No time to fall in love again
Oh Carry me home let me live again
I just can't let it go
I can't get back to where I've been
Mabye I'm crazy I'm showing all the signs
It feels like I'm falling thru an old vintage mine
I can't find the answers
Blowing in the wind come on
Carry me home let me love again
I know she's not really here
I hear her voice just the same
She'd be right beside me if we lived in a perfect world
And she'd whisper out my name
She said carry me home let me love again
I just can't let it go
I can't get back to where I've been come on
Carry me home let me love again
I just can't let it go
I can't get back to where I've been

Fleur de Cactus, ma petite sœur
Tu es choisie par le Seigneur

Lorsque frère âne, certains soirs
Te dit "J'en ai assez"
Lorsque frère âne, certains soirs

Souviens-toi...
Et quand la folle du logis
Te dit, c'est insensé
Et quand la folle du logis
Te dit de renoncer
Souviens-toi...
Si le soleil et le grand vent
Te parlent de liberté
Si le soleil et le grand vent
Te disent de t'évader
Souviens-toi ...

The Other Side Of The Sun
The Other Side Of The Sun
((Dutch Version: De Andere Kant Van De Maan (Conny Vandenbos) - 1980))
Composer(s): Albert Hammond - Janis Ian
First release by: Janis Ian - 1979
Leaving on a boat
For beyond the other side of the ocean
I’ll bet you in the morning
You won’t even know I’m gone
Tired of living here
In the middle of a mixed emotion
I might as well be living
On the other side of the sun
Leaving with the feeling
I don’t know how I’m dealing
With loving you
Though once I knew
The special way
And what to do
To make you stay
Forever and ever
Even as I’m leaving
I’ll never stop believing
You are the one
Who can make me laugh
And can bring me back
From beyond the other side of the sun
Rolling down the river
I hope I can deliver the morning
Wishing on a star
For the sun to come out and play
Funny, when it’s over
You really don’t remember the warnings
You might as well be living
Out beyond the Milky Way
(Forever and ever)
Leaving with the feeling
I don’t know how I’m dealing
With loving you
Though once I knew
The special way
And what to do
To make you stay
Forever and ever
Even as I’m leaving
I’ll never stop believing
You are the one
Who can make me laugh
And can bring me back
From beyond the other side of the sun
Leaving with the feeling
I don’t know how I’m dealing
With loving you
Though once I knew
The special way
And what to do
To make you stay
Forever and ever
Even as I’m leaving
I’ll never stop believing
You are the one
Who can make me laugh
And can bring me back
From beyond the other side of the sun
From beyond the other side of the sun

Carry Me Back
Composer(s): Harold Reid - Don Reid
Performer(s): The Statler Brothers
Carry me back, Lord, while I still got the time
Is Jimmy through servin' his hitch with Uncle Sam?
Do the kids still spend Saturday nights drivin' 'round Hamburger Dan's?
Did Jackie ever make it to the streets of Hollywood?
And Bobby, I'd love to see him again, & I would if I could
Carry me back & make me feel at home
Let me cling to those mem'ries that won't let me alone
Where it was always summer and she was always mine
Carry me back, Lord, while I still got the time
Does the preacher still visit when sun or snow gets down?
Do the stores still stay open on Friday nights downtown?
Is JoAnn still as pretty as when she wore my high school ring?
When you see her, tell her I said July 1959; she'll know what I mean
Carry me back & make me feel at home
Let me cling to those mem'ries that won't let me alone
Where it was always summer and she was always mine
Carry me back, Lord, while I still got the time
Carry me back, Lord, while I still got the time

Flesh And Blood
Flesh And Blood
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
Performer(s): Johnny Cash; Mary Chapin Carpenter;
Concombre Zombi; Chris Knight
Beside a singin' mountain stream
Where the willow grew
Where the silver leaf of maple
Sparkled in the mornin' dew
I braided twigs of willow
Made a string of buckeye beads
But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need
Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need
I leaned against a bark of birch
And I breathed the honey dew
I saw a north-bound flock of geese
Against a sky of baby blue
Beside the lily pads
I carved a whistle from a reed
Mother Nature's quite a lady
But you're the one I need
But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need
A cardinal sang just for me
And I thanked him for the song
Then the sun went slowly down the west
And I had to move along
These were some of the things
On which my mind and spirit feed
But flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need
Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need
So when this day was ended
I was still not satisfied
For I knew everything I touched
Would wither and would die
And love is all that will remain
And grow from all these seed
Mother Nature's quite a lady
But you're the one I need
Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood
And you're the one I need

Violins, sweet guitars that you can strum
Buy a pair of drumsticks now
And I’ll throw in a lovely drum!
And for just a dollar down
Be the gayest man in town
With the Dixie brand!
With the Dixie brand!

Carry Me Back
Performer(s): Andy Summers
Creep in through my window
Dance upon the wall
Come in here beside me
Climb into my soul
Take me to the water
Down into the cool
Everlasting memory
Everlasting pool
Aching in the darkness
Burning in the sun
Calling from the water
This life has just begun
Strength of blood and muscle
Life of wood and bone
Searching for a fire
Searching for a home...
Home...home...home...
Crouching in the darkness
Hiding in the stone
Trembling in the darkness
This man is not alone
Hit me by the memory
Hurt me to the bone
Make my fists with starlight
Carry me back home...
Home...
(Home)
(Home) Ay...yah
(Home) Ay...yah
Ay...yah
Ay...yah
Ay...yah
Ay...yah (Ay-yah, ay-yah, we say "ay-yah", ay-yah)
