The Steady Game
Composer(s): John D. Loudermilk
Performer(s): George Hamilton IV
Time's here to make our minds up
Dear we're ready for the steady game
'Til now we've played the field but
Here now we're ready for the steady game
All you have to do is just say okay
And I'll be completely yours alone
From this day on, my darling,
Our love is real don't you feel that dear
We're ready for the steady game

Come And Get Me
Come And Get Me
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach; Hal David
Performer(s): Jackie DeShannon
I know what life has done to you
Things haven't been much fun for you
That's why you went away
And now, I'm all alone
I wasn't meant to be on my own
Turn back, turn back
And come and get me
Oh, come and get me
Take me along
I don't care where you lead me
If you leave me
It can't be wrong just to be with you
There's no place in this world
That I wouldn't go
This time isn't the time for you
You have to be where the skies are blue
And here, the skies are gray
Darling, I understand
Don't you need someone to hold your hand
Turn back, turn back
And come and get me
Oh, come and get me
Take me along
I don't care where you lead me
If you leave me
It can't be wrong just to be with you
There's no place in this world
That I wouldn't go
Oh, please, won't you tell me
Where you've gone to, gone to
If I knew where you were
I'd be right there
Please, send me hope
To be hanging onto
Just to show me you care

Right On
Right On
Composer(s): Marvin Gaye; Earl DeRouen
Performer(s): Marvin Gaye
Hey, baby
That's alright people
I know that's alright
Oh, when we love each other
I know that's alright
Oh, feel it, feel it
Oh, everybody feel it
God knows that's alright, yeah
Some of us were born
With money to spend
Some of us were born
For races to win
Some of us are aware
That it's good for us to care
Some of us feel the icy wind
Of poverty blowing in the air
For those of us
Who simply like to socialize
For those of us who tend to the sick
Ah, and heed the people's cries
Let me say to you
Right on
Right on, feel it
Oh, Lord, Lord, people
And I say, right on
Honey right on
For those of us who live
Where peace is craved
For of us who live, uh huh
Where hatred is enslaved, alright
For those of us who live a life
Yea, surrounded by good fortune and wealth
Talk about it
Those of us who live a life
Hey, hey, hey, enjoying ourselves
For those of us who got drowned
In the sea of happiness
For the soul that takes pride
In his God
And himself and everything else
Love
That's all it is
We need love
That's all it is
Love, love
Love's the thing
Love, love, love, love
Sweet love, love
Wonderful love
Ah, true love, love
Love for your brother
Love for God
Pure love
Love can conquer hate everytime
Give out some love and you'll find
Peace sublime
And my darling, one more thing
If you let me, I will take you
To live where love is King
Ah, ah, baby, baby
People, people
People who love and care
That's alright
Alright
Ah.............

The State I'm In
The State I'm In
Composer(s): Glenn Hughes
Performer(s): Glenn Hughes
I know that something is wrong
And I know it’s for real
I don’t know what I’ve become
And what do I feel?
Is it for real?
Stranger than fiction, I’m lying in fear in my room
This is the chosen, I’m leaving the pain
The black cloud is fallin’ again
The black cloud is fallin’
And he takes me higher, 2 the state I’m in
I’m looking down on the Earth as we sail ‘cross the sky
I’m not alone anymore
And I don’t wonder why, wonder why
Locked in this dream
I’m dying 2 open my eyes
Lost in the sadness
Now I’m overcome
The black cloud is fallin’ again
The black cloud is fallin’
This is the chosen, I’m leaving
The black cloud is fallin’ again
Cast in the sadness
Face with no name
The black cloud is fallin’ again
Cast in the sadness
Face with no name
The black cloud is fallin’ again
Cast in the sadness
Face with no name
The black cloud is fallin’ again
Cast in the sadness
Face with no name
The black cloud is fallin’ again

Come And Get It
Come And Get It
Composer(s): Paul McCartney
Performer(s): Badfinger
If you want it, here it is
Come and get it
Make your mind up fast
If you want it any time
I can give it
But you better hurry 'cos it may not last
Did I hear you say that there must be a catch
Will you walk away from a fool and his money?
If you want it, here it is
Come and get it
But you better hurry 'cos it's going fast
Sonny if you want it, here it is
Come and get it
But you better hurry 'cos it's going fast - Do

Right Now
Right Now
Composer(s): Herbie Mann; Carl Sigman
Performer(s): Mel Tormé
Right now, let me take you by the hand
Right now, put your lips at my command
Right now, fly me onto lovers’ land
Baby, don’t you leave me at the post
Kiss me, let me feel it coast to coast
Right now, baby, need your love the most
You have set my soul on fire
Only you can satisfy this great desire
Right now, let the whole world break in two
Right now, stars will tumble from the blue
Right now, just as long as I’m with you
Right now, it’s the time and it’s the place
Right now, for a ride through outer space
Right now, let me have that wild embrace
You have set my soul on fire
Only you can satisfy this great desire
One time, let the wine of love flow free
One time, be the lover you can be
Right now, come and give yourself to me

The Stars Will Remember
The Stars Will Remember
Composer(s): Don Pelosi - Leo Towers
Performer(s): Vaughn Monroe
and multiple other artists
The stars will remember
The night we said goodbye
The stars will remember
So will I
A rose as a token
A kiss that brought a sigh
The stars will remember
So will I
And now the stars and I
We share the lonely lane
But in my solitude
It seems I hear you call my name
The world may forget you
As time goes passing by
The stars will remember
So will I
The world may forget you
As time goes passing by
The stars will remember
So - will - I

Come All Ye
Come All Ye
Composer(s): Sandy Denny; Ashley Hutchings
Performer(s): Fairport Convention
Come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the air
And move the rolling sky
Those that dance will start to dance
And those who don't will sway
In time to this our merry tune
That we play for you today
So come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the air
And move the rolling sky
Our fiddler, he just loves to play
And that's why he plays so good
And now he plays a violin
Made out of solid wood
So come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the air
And move the rolling sky
Possessor of the magic touch
But no magician, he
Will play for you some magic notes
Instead as you will see
So come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the air
And move the rolling sky
The sound of beating on the drums
From behind you hear
And to the rhythm of guitar
We hope you'll lend an ear
So come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the air
And move the rolling sky
Well, the man who plays the bass does make
Those low notes that you hear
And the high notes come from you and me
For we will sing so clear
So come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the air
And move the rolling sky

Right Down The Line
Composer(s): Gerry Rafferty
Performer(s): Gerry Rafferty;
and various other artists
You know I need your love
You've got that hold over me
Long as I've got your love
You know that I'll never leave
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you woman
Right down the line
I know how much I lean on you
Only you can see
The changes that I've been through
Have left a mark on me
You've been as constant as a Northern Star
The brightest light that shines
It's been you woman right down the line
I just wanna say this is my way
Of tellin' you everything
I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of tellin' you
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more
'Cause you believed in me through my darkest night
Put somethin' better inside of me
You brought me into the light
Threw away all those crazy dreams
I put them all behind
And it was you woman
Right down the line
I just wanna say this is my way of tellin' you everything
I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of tellin' you
Everything I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of tellin' you
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more
If I should doubt myself, if I'm losing ground
I won't turn to someone else
They'd only let me down
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you woman
Right down the line

The Stars Didn't Show
The Stars Didn't Show
Composer(s): Eric Stewart - Graham Gouldman
Performer(s): 10 cc
We came from miles around
Just to listen to your sound
You made the night seem endless
You cast a magic spell
You played the part so well
Your music blew away the darkness
We loved you for better
We loved you for worse
But we never took you for granted
Your lives were a blessing
But they carried a curse
The night that the stars didn't show
You made me stand so proud
I was lifted from the crowd
The fire inside me burning
The figure dressed in black
Sending shivers down my back
Deep inside my soul was stirring
We loved you for better
We loved you for worse
The sweet inspiration that you gave us
And I can remember we didn't rehearse
The night that the stars didn't show
Mountains may crumble
And worlds fall apart
Lovers and friends may desert me
The road may be long
But I know in my heart
Your spirit will always be with me
The thrill to be up there
A sea of faces everywhere
I look I find you
We loved you for better
We loved you for worse
But we never took you for granted
Your lives were a blessing
But they carried a curse
The night that the stars didn't show
We loved you for better
We loved you for worse
The sweet inspiration that you gave us
And I can remember we didn't rehearse
The night that the stars didn't show

Come Again? Toucan
Come Again? Toucan
Composer(s): David Freiberg; Grace Slick
Performer(s): Grace Slick
Mistakes are made because words are misunderstood
It's all, all in how you talk
Waking over somebody, sounds like a strange thing to do
but it's all, all in how you are (walk)
Seems like it might be the right thing to say at the time
and I (how d'you) know I probably say it again
gimme just a little taste, gimme just a little taste more
and I'll be flying out, fliyng out the wise and old, old is the whole world
and I'd just turn around like a baby and I'd crawl, crawl right back inside...

Performer(s): Maxine Nightingale;
and various other artists
Ooh, and...
It's alright an it's coming on
We gotta get right back to where we started from
Love is good, love can be strong
We gotta get right back to where we started from
Do you remember the day - (that sunny day) - when you first came my way
I said no-one can take your place
And if you get hurt - (if you get hurt) - by the little things I say
I can put that smile back on your face
Ooh, and
It's alright and it's coming on, ....
A love like ours - (a love like ours) - can never fade away
You know it's only just begun
You give me your love - (give me your love) - I just can't stay away, no
I know you are the only one
Ooh, and

I know you are my only one
Ooh, you know
It's alright and it's coming on, ....

The Star Still Shines
The Star Still Shines
Performer(s): Sonny James
If dark clouds cover your Christmas sky
If the world around you should seem unkind
Don't for a single moment let your strong faith die
Always believe the Star still shines
And if you would weaken and turn aside
From the path that seems much too high to climb
Recall a tiny baby with more love than pride
Always believe the Star still shines
The Star still shines, which will lead us home
The angels sing, you're never, never alone
And when children hunger out in the cold
With their tiny hands seeking love to find
And when fools only worship altars of gold
Always believe the Star still shines
Always believe the Star still shines

Come Again
Come Again
Composer(s): David Gates
Originally performed by: Bread
Hear - the knock at the door and you know who is there
you tell yourself you don't care
Try - you try to pretend you'll just send him away
you know it won't end that way
Your heart doesn't stand a chance, your eyes let him know
And your pride doesn't means a thing - you lost it for him years ago
Hear - the voice at the door and it makes you afraid
afraid but you don't know how
Try - you try to remind him the promise he made
he doesn't remember now
The tears welling up inside, are drowning your dreams
And your chance for another chance, keep leaving with him so it seems
Time - the friend that would bring him around
Is turning on you and it's bringing you down
Love - you tell him you love him and want him to change
he says that he'll really try
Hear - how often you hear as he's closing the door
And softly you say goodbye...
Come again
Come again

Rifugiati Nel Pianto
Rifugiati Nel Pianto
French Title: Rentre Chez Toi Et Pleure
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Gilbert Bécaud
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Se ho ferito in te il tuo vivere per me
Vieni qui, rifugiati nel pianto
Stai vicino a me e perdonami anche se
Non dovrei più domandarlo a te
Non temere mai se l'istinto seguirai
Vieni qui, rifugiato nel pianto
Scora se lo puoi quel che è stato tra di noi
E con me felice tornerai
Viueni, vieni, e riporta in me
Il sospiro della vita
Vieni, vieni non dire più
Che fra noi è finita
Non mi dare mai un addio
Che tu mnon vuoi
Vieni qui, rifugiati nel pianto
E ricorda che se tu andassi via da me
Sarei io a piangere per te

Star Of The County Down
Star Of The County Down
((Adapted from: Gilderoy (Traditional))
Traditional (Ireland)
Performer(s): Van Morrison & The Chieftains - 1988
and multiple other artists
Near Banbridge town in the County Down
One morning last July
Down a boreen green came a sweet colleen
And she smiled as she passed me by
She looked so sweet from her two bare feet
To the sheen of her nut brown hair
Such a coaxing elf, sure I shook myself
For to see I was really there
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
And from Galway to Dublin town
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
That I met in the County Down!
She'd a soft brown eye and a look so sly
And a smile like the rose in June
And you hung on each note from her lily-white throat
As she lilted an Irish tune
At the pattern dance you were held in a trance
As she tripped thru a reel or a jig
And when her eyes she'd roll, she'd coax, on my soul
A spud from a hungry pig!
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
And from Galway to Dublin town
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
That I met in the County Down!
I've travelled a bit, but never was hit
Since my roving career began
But, fair and square, I surrendered there
To the charms of young Rosie McAnn!
With a heart to let, and no tenant yet
Did I meet in shawl or gown
But in she went, and I asked no rent
From the Star of the County Down!
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
And from Galway to Dublin town
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
That I met in the County Down!
As she onward sped sure I scratched my head
And I looked with a feeling rare
And I says, says I, to a passer by
"Who's the maid with the nut brown hair?"
He smiled at me and he said, said he
"That's the gem of Ireland's crown
Young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Ban
She's the star of the County Down"
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
And from Galway to Dublin town
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
That I met in the County Down!
At the harvest fair she'll be surely there
So I'll dress in my Sunday clothes
With my shoes shone bright and my hat cocked right
For a smile from my nut brown Rose
No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yoke
Till my plough is a rust coloured brown
Till a smiling bride by my own fireside
Sits the star of the County Down
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
And from Galway to Dublin town
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
That I met in the County Down!

Come A Little Bit Closer
Come A Little Bit Closer
French Title: C’est Toi Que Je Préfère
Composer(s): Tommy Boyce; Bobby Hart; Wes Farrell
Originally performed by: Jay & The Americans
Covered by various other artists
In a little café just the other side of the border
She was just sitting there giving me looks that made my mouth water
So I started walking her way
She belonged to bad man, José
And I knew, yes I knew I should leave
When I heard her say, yeah
Come a little bit closer
You're my kind of man
So big and so strong
Come a little bit closer
I'm all-alone
And the night is so long
So we started to dance
In my arms, she felt so inviting
That I just couldn't resist
Just one little kiss so exciting
Then I heard the guitar player say
"Vamoose, Jose's on his way"
Then I knew, yes I knew I should run
But then I heard her say, yeah
Come a little bit closer
You're my kind of man
So big and so strong
Come a little bit closer I'm all alone
And the night is so long
Then the music stopped
When I looked the café was empty
Then I heard José say
"Man you know you're in trouble plenty"
So I dropped my drink from my hand
And through the window I ran
And as I rode away
I could hear her say to José, yeah
Come a little bit closer
You're my kind of man
So big and so strong
Come a little bit closer
I'm all alone
And the night is so long
La la-la-la la-la
La la-la-la la-la
Ho ho la-la

Rien Rien J'disais Ça Comme Ça
Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Performer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Incurable!
Vous êtes au courant?
Oh, son histoire de photos
Il est fou
Je trouve ça complètement idiot
Elle est quand même pas mal, non?
Pas mal...
Vous êtes amoureuse de lui?
Mais qu'est-ce qui vous prend?
Mais ça va pas, non?
Rien rien je disais ça comme ça
Faut pas vous fâcher
Simplement travailler avec un type toute la journée
ça peut donner des idées, c'est normal
Moi je suis anormale, si c'est ça que vous voulez dire
Pas commode hein?
Je vous trouve marrante
Vous êtes sûrement une affaire, mais vous n'devez pas le savoir
Quelle prétention!
Oh vous n'm'avez pas compris
Je n'cherchais pas à me placer
Vous avez c'qu'il vous faut?
Exact!
Elle est jolie?
Elles sont très jolies
Ah la la, quel salaud!
Allez, salut poupée!
