Ramblin' Rose


Ramblin' Rose
Composer(s): Noel Sherman; Joe Sherman
Performer(s): Nat "King" Cole



Ramblin' Rose
Ramblin' Rose
Why you ramble
No one knows
Wild and windblown
That's how you've grown
Who can cling to
A ramblin' rose?

Ramble on
Ramble on
When you're rambling
Days are gone?

Ramblin' Rose
Ramblin' Rose
Why I want you
Heaven knows
Though I love you
With a love true
Who can cling to
A ramblin' rose?

First performance by: Poli Genova - 2011



Defiance
Oh, I know, I will find strength in me
To do what I can do!
Yeah, yeah
They will not break me
They will not see me broken again
They cannot get me there
Yeah, Yeah
They will not find a way to me
They will not take my faith
They want to look again over me
No, no
But yes, I know, I will find strength in me
Even to reach the sky
No matter what, no matter what...
Oh, I know the power will be with me
To do what I can do!
To do what I can do!
There is so much love in me
It still makes sense to stay
And every day I find my will
Yeah, yeah, yeah
People like you and me
Will remain and fight no matter what
Who does it depend on? Yes, on you and me!
Yeah, yeah, yeah
But I know you will find strength in me
Even to reach the sky
No matter what, no matter what...
Oh yeah, I know the power will be with you
To do what we can do!
To do what we can do!
Yes... He is there
and He gives us, He gives us
strength, courage to go on...
But yes, I know I will find strength in me
And we can even reach the sky
No matter what, no matter what
Oh yeah, I know the power will be with you
To do what we can do
To do what we can do!
It makes sense
for us to fight and you should know
how much we can achieve
Yes, we can do it!

Cherry Hill Park


Cherry Hill Park Composer(s): Robert Nix - Billy Gilmore Performer(s): Billy Joe Royal



Mary Hill used to hang out in Cherry Hill Park
The games she played lasted all day till way after dark
All the girls they criticized her
But all the guys just idolized her
'Cause Mary Hill was such a thrill after dark
In Cherry Hill Park

Mary Hill loved to ride the merry-go-round
All the guys got eager eyes watchin' Mary go round
In the daytime Mary Hill was a teaser
Come the night she was such a pleaser
Oh Mary Hill was such a thrill after dark
In Cherry Hill Park

Mary Hill sure was fun down in Cherry Hill Park
Playing games with everyone till way after dark
In Cherry Hill Park, Cherry Hill Park

Then one day, Mary Hill, she married away
A man with some money said "Come on, honey"
and she said okay
She went away to play a one man game
and since that day it ain't been the same
'Cause Mary Hill was such a thrill after dark
Yeah in Cherry Hill Park

Mary Hill sure was fun down in Cherry Hill Park
Playing games with everyone till way after dark
In Cherry Hill Park, Cherry Hill Park

(repeat):
In Cherry Hill Park (Cherry Hill Park)

Ramblin' Man


Ramblin' Man
Composer(s): Dickie Betts
Performer(s): The Allman Brothers Band



Chorus
Lord, I was born a ramblin' man
Tryin' to make a livin' and doin' the best I can
And when it's time for leavin'
I hope you'll understand
That I was born a ramblin' man

Well my father was a gambler down in Georgia
He wound up on the wrong end of a gun
And I was born in the back seat of a Greyhound bus
Rollin' down highway 41

Chorus

I'm on my way to New Orleans this mornin'
Leaving out of Nashville, Tennessee
They're always having a good time down on the bayou
Lord, them Delta women think the world of me

Chorus

Lord, I was born a ramblin' man...

Ramblin' Fever


Ramblin' Fever
Composer(s): Merle Haggard
Performer(s): Merle Haggard



My hat don't hang on the same nail too long
My ears can't stand to hear the same old song
And I don't leave the highway long enough
To bog down in the mud
Cause I've got ramblin' fever in my blood

I caught this ramblin' fever long ago
When I first heard a lonesome whistle blow
If someone said I ever gave a damn
They damn sure told you wrong
I've had ramblin' fever all along

Ramblin' fever, the kind that can't be measured by degrees
Ramblin' fever, there ain't no kind of cure for my disease

There's times I'd like to bed down on a sofa
And let some pretty lady rub my back
And spend the early morning drinking coffee
And talking about when I'll be coming back

Cause I don't let know no woman tie me down
And I'll never get too old to get around
I'm gonna die along the highway and rot away
Like some old high-line pole,
Rest this ramblin' fever in my soul

Stop, don't say that it's impossible
'Cause I know it's possible
Though I know you never look my way
I can say you will one day
I can say you will one day

I will be popular, I will be popular
I'm gonna get there, popular
My body wants you, girl

I'll get you when I'm popular

I put my hands up in the light
You see me dancing for my life
I will be popular, I will be popular

Spread the news, I'm gonna take the fight
For the spotlight, day and night

Be someone before you're gone

My body wants you girl

Cherry Blossom Clinic Revisited


Cherry Blossom Clinic Revisited
Composer(s): Roy Wood
Performer(s): The Move



It was one morning when I woke up
and then I found out that they'd signed some papers
and then I was gonna be kept in a bed owing to my state of mind
And then I found out that the authorities had said, um
that I'd gotta have special food fed to me for my thoughts, um
and I think it's because, because I was going off my...)

Head
Sunbeam from flowered skies
Twenty thousand butterflies
Glorify my...
Turn from hot to very cool
Though it seems incredible
I could ride a bike around the room

Cherry Blossom Clinic
Is there any truth in what they say
Cherry Blossom Clinic
Lock me in and throw the key away

In this sad position where I lie
From the corner of my eye
Callous friends just pass me by
Doctor pays a visit
Everyday I keep asking for my Dad
They must think I'm going mad
Lift the blankets off my face
Quick before I suffocate
Trying hard to meditate
Tell the people, "What a scene"
Write a letter to the Queen
Asking her if she can come to tea

Cherry Blossom Clinic
Is there any truth in what they say
Cherry Blossom Clinic
Lock me in and throw the key away

Up above the sun is high
Like a tea tray in the sky
Helicopter lands upon my bed
Phantom horses quickly fade
Turning into lemonade
Probably feel better when I'm dead

Cherry Blossom Clinic
Is there any truth in what they say
Cherry Blossom Clinic
Lock me in and throw the key away

Ramble Tamble


Ramble Tamble

Chorus:
Move
Down the road
I go

Chorus

There’s mud in the water
Roach in the cellar
Bugs in the sugar
Mortgage on the home
Mortgage on the home

There’s garbage on the sidewalk
Highways in the back yard
Police on the corner
Mortgage on the car
Mortgage on the car

Chorus

They’re selling independence
Actors in the white house
Acid in digestion
Mortgage on my life
Mortgage on my life

Chorus

So Lucky


So Lucky
Composer(s): Mihai Ginci - Marc Elsner - Andy Schuman
First performance by: Zdob si Zdub - 2011



Flashes
Ray ban glasses
I move with ease
In my convertible breeze
Martini
whiskey on the rocks
life on the top
my party never stops!
Winner
A dusk to dawn sinner
Love traded in for lust
It’s emotions I don’t trust
On top
The cream of the crop
You know I love to rock
The fun will never stop
You see
It’s all about me
The servants and the king
I’m the ruler of the world
A tug
She pulls me like a drug
I want her on the rug
But she’s not that kind of girl

I see you where the lights glow
You pull me in your private side show
And now I see your moves in slowmo
I try to kiss you, but you slip away
Yet you never walk away from me
Are you a shadow of what might be?
Why should one woman stand above the rest?
There is a mystery to you deep beneath the flesh!

Those eyes pulling me in
A body made to sin
But I can not win
Wait
I’m ready at the gate
Don’t tell me it’s too late
Her fire starts to melt my heart
She’s clean
Not part of any scene
She’s more like a dream
I don't want to wake up from!
I see
She’s somehow changing me
She’s where I want to be
Can’t stand a moment without her
Anymore!

I see you where the lights glow
You pull me in your private side show
And now I see your moves in slowmo
I try to kiss you, but you slip away
Yet you never walk away from me
Are you a shadow of what might be?
Why should one woman stand above the rest?
There is a mystery to you deep beneath the flesh!

Ramble On Rose


Ramble On Rose
Composer(s): Jerry Garcia; Robert Hunter
Performer(s): The Grateful Dead; Emory Joseph



Just like Jack the Ripper, just like Mojo Hand
Just like Billy Sunday, in a shotgun ragtime band
Just like New York City, just like Jerico
Pace the halls and climb the walls and get out when they blow

Did you say your name was Ramblin' Rose?
Ramble on baby, settle down easy
Ramble on Rose

Just like Jack and Jill, Mama told the jailor
One hear up, and one cool down, leave nothin' for the tailor
Just like Jack and Jill, Papa told the jailer
One go up, and one go down, do yourself a favor

Did you say your name was Ramblin' Rose?
Ramble on baby, settle down easy
Ramble on Rose

I'm gonna to sing you a hundred verses in ragtime
I know this song it ain't never gonna end
I'm gonna march you up and down along the county line
Take you to the leader of a band

Just like Crazy Otto, just like Wolfman Jack
Sittin plush with a royal flush, aces back to back
Just like Mary Shelly, just like Frankenstein
Clank your chains and count your change and try to walk the line

Did you say your name was Ramblin' Rose?
Ramble on baby, settle down easy
Ramble on Rose

I'm gonna to sing you a hundred verses in ragtime
I know this song it ain't never gonna end
I'm gonna march you up and down along the county line
Take you to the leader of a band

Goodbye Mama and Papa
Goodbye Jack and Jill
The grass ain't greener
The wine ain't sweeter
Either side of the hill

Did you say your name was Ramblin' Rose?
Ramble on baby, settle down easy
Ramble on Rose

Angel (Mika Newton)


Angel
Composer(s): Maryna Skomorohova - Ruslan Kvinta
First performance by: Mika Newton - 2011



When you look into my eyes
World becomes a better place
And you know deep inside
Love is taking all the space
Baby, I love you... and you?

We are birds
We fly so high and we are falling down
When I dream of you
My dream is so fearless
We are people of the planet, we live human lives
We are angels, we're in danger, we are crystal white... crystal white

When you look into my eyes
Sun is touching mountain top
When you look into my eyes
It will never have to stop
Baby, I love you... and you?

Cherished Memories


Cherished Memories ((French Version: Jolie Mélodie (Eddy Mitchell) - 1963)) Composer(s): Sharon Sheeley First release by: Eddie Cochran - 1962



You're goin' away, away from me
But here in my heart is a memory
The way we met, the way we kissed
The way we fell in love
Oh, the little secrets that we shared
When I was sad, the way you cared
To let me know you'd understand
The way you'd hold my hand
Cherished memories, the things that a fellow can't forget
Cherished memories, you're leaving but I love you yet
And now you say that we must part
And even though it breaks my heart
There's one thing you can't take from me
That's my cherished memories

Ramble On


Ramble On
Composer(s): Jimmy Page; Robert Plant
Performer(s): Led Zeppelin



The leaves are falling all around
Time I was on my way
Thanks to you, I'm much obliged
For such a pleasant stay

But now it's time for me t' go
The autumn moon lights my way
But now I smell the rain
And with it pain
And it's headed my way
Ah, sometimes I grow so tired
But I know I've got one thing I've got to do

Ramble on
Now's the time, the time is now
Sing my song
I'm going 'round the world
I got to find my girl
On my way
I've been this way ten years to the day
Ramble on
I got to find the queen of all my dreams

Got no time to spending grief
The time has come to be gone
And to' our health we drank a thousand times
It's time to ramble on

A-ramble on
Now's the time, the time is now
Sing my song
I'm going 'round the world
I got to find my girl
On my way
I've been this way ten years to the day
I got to ramble on
I got to find the queen of all my dreams

I ain't taking no ride

Mine's a tale that can't be told
My freedom I hold dear
How years ago in days of old
When magic filled the air
'Twas in the darkest depths of Mordor
I met a girl so fair
But Gollum, and the evil one crept up
And slipped away with her, her
Her, her, her a-yeah
An' ain't nothing I can do, now
I guess I'll keep on

Rambling, I'm gonna shake
Sing my song, I'm gonna find my baby
I'm gonna ramble on
Sing my song, work my way, going 'round the world

I'm Still Alive


I'm Still Alive
Composer(s): Bryan Todd - Sandra Nordstrom - Branislav Jancich
First performance: TWiiNS - 2011



Now nothing can touch me
I’ve seen what I can be
Lonely I’ve walked through the fire
But I’m Still Alive

Now nothing can touch me
I’ve seen what I can be
Lonely I’ve walked through the fire
I’m Still Alive

Would ya climb up the mountain
Would ya battle the ocean
Would ya give just to loose it all
I’ve been living my life and
Try to learn ever lesson
Now I see why I fight and I fall

When the roads not to wide
Then trust the heart never lies

Now nothing can touch me
I’ve seen what I can be
Lonely I’ve walked through the fire
But I’m Still Alive
I’m Still Alive

If ya lost all the meanin
No more truth to believe in
Would the light inside fade to grey
But if ya shine like a diamond
Don’t get caught in the moment
Never letting your breath slip away

When the roads not to wide
Then trust the heart never lies

Now nothing can touch me
I’ve seen what I can be
Lonely I’ve walked through the fire
But I’m Still Alive
I’m Still Alive

With love! In my mind, my body and my soul
I’m doing everything and I’m doing it all
With love!

In my mind, my body and my soul
With love, baby, you can have it all

If you like to move it, if you like to groove it
Do it with love, baby
If you like to sing it, if you like to swing it
Do it with love, baby

'Cause when your love is gone
and you’re all alone
There is nothing left to carry on
So whenever we’re singing this song we do it
With love, baby!

I’m doing everything and I’m doing it all
With love
In my mind, my body and my soul

You gotta do it with love
Come on and sing it, swing it, with love
Feel it in your body, your soul and your mind
When you move, when you groove, with love

Yes, I had to sing it and I came to bring it to you
With love, baby
Then I tried to blend it but I have to end it for you
With love, baby

'Cause when I love you and you love me too
There is nothing left for us to do
But to hug and to kiss and to tug into bliss
With love, baby

With love
In my mind, my body and my soul
I’m doing everything and I’m doing it all
With love
In my mind, my body and my soul
With love, baby, you can have it all

With love, With love baby
With love, With love baby

Oh, whatever you’re doing just do it with love

In my mind, my body and my soul
I’m doing everything and I’m doing it all
