This Is Your World


This Is Your World
Composer(s): Bettye Crutcher - Homer Banks
Performer(s): Sam & Dave
This is your world, I'm just livin' in it
This is your world, I'm just livin' in it
I'm all wrapped up in you, baby
'Cause without you I couldn't live
Every moment, every moment we're away from each other
Happiness will fade & my sorrow will breathe
This is your world, I'm just livin' in it
This is your world, I'm just livin' in it
You're my sunshine & you are my rain
You can bring me joy or you can bring me pain
You control my very soul
What I like about your love, that it never grow old
This is your world, I'm just livin' in it
This is your world, I'm just livin' in it
A sad thing about it that I don't understand
How can a woman have so much power over a man?
If heaven can beat this, love, I'd wring her both hands
Oh you're in charge, mama, what a sweet command
This is your world, I'm just livin' in it
This is your world, I'm just livin' in it...

Crazy Love (Poco)


Crazy Love
Composer(s): Russell Young
First release by: Poco - 1978
Tonight I'm gonna break away
Just you wait and see
I've never been imprisoned by
A faded memory
Just when I think I'm over her
This broken heart will mend
I hear her name and I have to cry
The tears come down again
It happens all the time
This crazy love of mine
Wrapped around my heart
Refusing to unwind
Ooh-ooh, crazy love, ah...
Count the stars in the southern sky
That fall without a sound
And then pretend that you can't hear
These teardrops coming down
It happens all the time
This crazy love of mine
Wrapped around my heart
Refusing to unwind
Ooh-ooh, crazy love, ah...
Tonight I'm gonna break away
Just you wait and see
I've never been imprisoned by
A faded memory
It happens all the time
This crazy love of mine
Wrapped around my heart
Refusing to unwind
Ooh-ooh, crazy love, ah...
Tonight I'm gonna break away...

Jamaica Jerk-Off


Jamaica Jerk-Off
Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin
Performer(s): Elton John; Judge Dread
When she gets up in the morning
It's enough to wake the dead
Oh she turning on the radio
And dancing on my head
It's no good living in the sun
Playing guitar all day
Boogalooing with my friends
In that erotic way
Come on Jamaica
In Jamaica all day
Dancing with your darling
Do Jamaica jerk-off that way
Come on Jamaica
Everybody say
We're all happy in Jamaica
Do Jamaica Jerk-off that way
Let the ladies and the gentlemen
Be as rude as they like
On the beaches, oh in the jungle
Where the people feel alright
So do it Jamaica
Got plenty for you and me
Honky tonking with my baby
In that deep blue sea

This Is Your Life


This Is Your Life
Composer(s): Jimmy Webb
Performer(s): The 5th Dimension
and multiple other artists
This is your life you're living
And it's the only one you've got
It's your life you're giving
Don't you think it's time you asked yourself for what?
This is your life, not a game that you play
It's your life and you're throwing it away
You're a runaround
The worst one in our end of town
And everyone knows that I still love you so
That precious wine you're tasting will be bitter when you're done
It's your life you're wasting
Don't you think it's sad you had to start so young?
This is your life, not a merry-go-round
It's your life, boy, and you can't live it down
You're a runaround
The worst one in our end of town
Yes, everyone knows that I still love you so
This is your life
Not just something to do
This is your life
And it's my life, too
This is your life
I know it's your life
I'm saying, don't throw it away
This is your life but it's my life too
This is your life
They say you're a runaround
I know it's your life but it's my life too

Crazy love it's just a crazy love
I love you so but I still know
It's a crazy love

Don't don't don't don't you see
What you are doing to me
You upset my heart right from the start
With your crazy love
Crazy love, crazy love

Jamaica Farewell (English Version)


Jamaica Farewell
Composer(s): Lord Burgess
Performer(s): Harry Belafonte;
and various other artists
Down the bay where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
I took a trip on a sailing ship
And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
Down the market you can hear
Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
`Akey' rice, salt fish are nice
And the rum is fine any time of year
Sounds of laughter everywhere
And the dancing girls sway to and fro
I must declare my heart is there
Though I've been from Maine to Mexico

This Is Where I Came In


This Is Where I Came In
Composer(s): Barry Gibb - Robin Gibb - Maurice Gibb
Performer(s): Bee Gees
I've seen this story
I read it over once or twice
I said like you say
A little bit of bad advice
I've been in trouble
Happened to me all my life
I lie and you lie
And who will get the sharpest knife
You should meet somebody like that
Not the kind of man to throw his hat into the ring and
Go down without following through
The day turns into night
Go down, following through, the day turns into night
Whoa
This is just where I came in
All mine to own
But I'll go anywhere
Yes, I'll go anywhere with you
Time has gone
But I'll go anywhere
Yes, I'll go anywhere with you
This is the danger zone
This is where I came in
They don't know what they do
Forgive them of their sins (They know)
They cannot take away
What you have given me
Whoa
This is just where I came in
Fade into color
And color into black and white
Under the bed clothes
Everything will be alright
I know that you know
Nothing ever stays the same
Said so, I said so
A lover never speak it's name
I'm gonna find somebody like you
Maybe with a brain and a body too
You could never make a move on a woman that leads me on
She got a little bit of something for everyone
It's a little too late
And the bluff is on the run
All mine to own
But I'll go anywhere
Yes, I'll go anywhere with you
Time has gone
But I'll go anywhere
Yes, I'll go anywhere with you
I always told myself
I would regret this day
That I would fall apart
And watch you walk away (To cry)
As you would cry out loud
And I would stand aside
Whoa
This is just where I came in

Covered by multiple other artists
This thing called love I just can't handle it

In a cradle all night
It swings (Woo Woo)
It jives (Woo Woo)
It shakes all over like a jelly fish
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love
There goes my baby
She knows how to Rock n' roll
She drives me crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat
I gotta be cool relax, get hip
Get on my track's
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready
Crazy little thing called love
I gotta be cool relax, get hip
Get on my track's
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready (Ready Freddie)

I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love

Jamaica Farewell (Dutch Version)
Jamaica Farewell
We zetten koers naar 'n ver vreemd land
Waar de gouden zon boven de bergen staat
Ik zie wel veel, maar mijn hart doet pijn
Als ik Jamaica voor een tijd verlaat…..!
Ik ben zo alleen, zo heel alleen
Want ik mis iets moois om me heen
Mijn hart dat huilt, ik voel mij somber en down
Ik liet mijn meisje achter ginds, in Kingston-town
In elke havenstad lopen weer
Mooie meisjes met hun koopwaar op en neer
Het zijn bananen 't is vis en rijst
Maar ook de rum smaakt dikwijls nog naar meer
Er is plezier op de vaste wal
Want de meisjes dansen er tot middernacht
Al is Jamaica ook nog zo ver
Ik heb alleen nog maar aan jou gedacht

This Is What We Find


This Is What We Find
Performer(s): Ian Dury & The Blokheads
Morning Reg, meat and two veg?
He done him with a ten-pound sledge, he done himself a favour Crash!
Forty-year old housewife Mrs Elizabeth Walk of Lambeth Walk
Had a husband who was jubblified with only half a stalk
So she had a Milk of Magnesia and curry powder sandwich, half a pound of uncut pork
Took an overdose of Omo, this made the neighbours talk
Could have been watching Frankie Vaughn on the telly and giving herself a scratch
This is what we find
This is what we find
This is what we find
This is what we find
A sense of humour is required, amongst the bacon rind
Hello Brian, wash and iron? Try it on, it's only nylon
Single batchelor with little dog Tony Green of Turnham Green
Said 'who's a clever boy then girl, now you know whom I mean'
For the mongrel laid a cable in the sandpit of the playground of the park where they had been
And with a bit of tissue, he wiped its bumhole clean
A bit of claggy on the waggy
This is what we find
This is what we find
This is what we find
This is what we find
They must have had a funny time, on the Golden Hind
O vanitas vanitatum, which of us is happy in his life
Which of us has our desire, or having it, is gratified
Hello Mrs Wood, this boy looks familiar, they used to call him Robin Hood.
Now he's Robin fucking shit cunt
Home improvement expert Harold Hill of Harold Hill
Of Do-It-Yourself dexterity, and double glazing skill
Came home to find another gentleman's kippers in the grill
So he sanded off his winkle with his Black and Decker drill
This is what we find
This is what we find
This is what we find
This is what we find
The hope that springs eternal, springs right up your behind!
This is what we find (repeat)...

Casi Loco Por Tu Amor


Casi Loco Por Tu Amor

Composer(s): Freddie Mercury - Sandra Baylac - Sebastian Schon
Performer(s): Pablo Dagnino - 1996
No se que hacer
esta vez no quiero esperar
Perdi la razon
no puedo mas y me entrego
Casi loco por tu amor
Decir que no
cada vez me cuesta mas
y asi yo soy
el esclavo de tu pasion
Y me muero
Casi loco por tu amor
Ahi va mi nena jamas pide perdon
me desespera
ella me trata como un perro
no me tiene compasion
No quiero pensar tal vez
olvidar esta decepcion
Mejor me voy
a caminar por el boulevard
hasta que vuelvas
Casi loco por tu amor
Yo quiero decir que no
cada vez me cuesta mas y asi
Yo soy el esclavo de tu pasion
Y me muero
Casi loco por tu amor
Ahi va mi nena jamas pide perdon
me desespera...no tiene compasion
No quiero pensar
tal vez olvidar esta decepcion
Mejor me voy
A caminar por el boulevard
hasta que vuelvas
Casi loco por tu amor
Casi loco por tu amor

Jam up and jelly tight

Performer(s): Emmylou Harris & Mark Knopfler
This is us down at the Mardi Gras
This is us in your daddy's Car
You and the missing link
Yeah, I'd had a little too much to drink, now
Too long in the sun
Having too much fun
You and me and our memories
This is us
This is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us
You rocking at the barbecue
Yeah, when we said I do
Hand-jiving on the ballroom floor
You in that wedding coat you wore
And you in that amazing dress
I was stoned on love I guess
You and me we were meant to be
This is us
This is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us
This is us on our Honeymoon
In our hotel room
Sittin' by the wishing well
Checkin' out of the Love Motel
Makin' plans for the sunshine state
Waitin' at the terminal gate
You and me making history
This is us
This is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us
This is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us
And our baby boy
With our pride and joy
You at the Sunday Game
Standin' next to what's-his-name
On our Anniversary
With the family
You and me and our memories
This is us
This is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us
This is Us
This Is Us
This Is Us

Jaloux De Tout


Jaloux De Tout
Composer(s): Étienne Roda-Gil;
Julien Clerc; Chris Padovan
Performer(s): Julien Clerc
Ce soir je viens me glisser dans tes rêves
Dans cette mer que le désir soulève
Laisse moi faire de toi mon trésor
Comme Arpagon à genoux sur son or
Tes paupières de fièvre
Sont à moi, sont à moi
Tes frayeurs, tes rêves
Sont à moi, sont à moi, sont à moi
Jaloux
Oui jaloux
Jaloux et jaloux de tout
Quand tu t'en vas seule vers d'autres affaires
Je sais toujours où tu es sur la terre
Je gagne toujours au jeu d'colin maillard
Les yeux bandés méme quand il fait noir
Tes hanches qui m'enchaînent
Sont à moi, sont à moi
Tes yeux en colère
Sont à moi, sont à moi, sont à moi
Jaloux
Oui jaloux
Jaloux et jaloux de tout
Ne venez pas traîner sur mes falaises
Où mon amour se promène à son aise
Même si ce n'est que pour nous regarder
Un accident est si vite arrivé
Tes jours dans la lumière
Sont à moi, sont à moi
Tes nuits, leurs mystères
Sont à moi, sont à moi, sont à moi
Jaloux
Oui jaloux
Jaloux et jaloux de tout
Jaloux et jaloux de tout

J'Aurai Sa Fille
((Adapted from: Down On The Corner (Creedence Clearwater Revival) - 1969))
Composer(s): John Fogerty - Vline Buggy
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell - 1970
Versions In Other Languages:
1977 - Nede På Hjørnet (Rock Nalle & The Flames)
1982 - Katupoikien Laulu (Kari Peitsamo Revival)
Quand on voit ton père, on ne l'oublie plus
Il y a au cimetière des gens qui l'ont bien connu
Mais que peut-il faire contre notre amour?
Me chasser, me faire la guerre, mais je sais bien qu'un jour
J'aurai sa fille, j'aurai ses chevaux
J'aurai sa fille mais il n'aura pas ma peau
Ton père a une pierre à la place du cœur
Malgré ses colères, moi, il ne me fait pas peur
Et dans la cuisine, même s'il dort
Près de sa vieille carabine, même s'il est le plus fort
J'aurai sa fille, j'aurai ses chevaux
J'aurai sa fille mais il n'aura pas ma peau
J'aurai sa fille, j'aurai ses chevaux
J'aurai sa fille mais il n'aura pas ma peau
Dans un chemin sombre pourtant, l'autre soir
Surgissant de l'ombre, il a bien failli m'avoir
Alors, à toutes jambes, j'ai couru vers toi
Tu m'as caché dans ta chambre, mais cette nuit-là
J'ai eu sa fille en premier cadeau
J'ai eu sa fille, un jour, il aura ma peau
J'ai eu sa fille en premier cadeau
J'ai eu sa fille, un jour, il aura ma peau

Crazy Life
Composer(s): Gino Vannelli
Performer(s): Gino Vannelli; The Eddie Metz Jr. Trio
It's a crazy life a hazy life
A mixed up jumbled phasy life
A crazy life for people who want to smile
I just don't understand
Why so hard to say hello before goodbye
It's a coocoo life a lulu life
A moody magic voodoo life
A coocoo life for people who want to love
I just don't understand why so green
That it's been hang ups day to day
I gotta pack up get away
'Cause it's a crazy life
Yes it's a crazy life
Crazy life
It's a stupid life elusive life
A lonely stuck secluded life
A stupid life for people who want to fly too high
I just don't understand why so blue
What to do
I'm gonna kiss my sky goodbye
I'm gonna jump way down and die
'Cause it's a crazy life
Yes it's a crazy life
Crazy life

Jake The Peg


Jake The Peg
Composer(s): Rolf Harris; Frank Roosen
Performer(s): Rolf Harris;
Paul O'Brien All Stars Band
[Chorus:]
I'm Jake the Peg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um
With my extra leg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um
Wherever I go through rain and snow
The people always let me know
There's Jake the peg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um
With his extra leg, diddle-iddle-iddle
The day that I born (oh boy) my father nearly died
He couldn't get my nappies on, how matter how he tried
'Cos I was born with an extra leg, and since that day begun
I had to learn to stand on my own three feet
Believe me that's no fun
[Chorus]
I had a dreadful childhood really, I s'pose I shouldn't moan
Each time they had a three legged race, I won it on me own
And also I got popular, when came the time for cricket
They used to roll my trousers up
And use me for the wicket
[Chorus]
I was a dreadful scholar, I found all the lessons hard
The only thing I knew for sure, was three feet make a yard
To count to ten I used me fingers, if I needed more
By getting my shoes and socks off
I could count to twenty four
I'm Jake the (stops to count)
...to twenty five
I'm Jake the peg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um
With my extra leg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um
Whatever I did they said was false
They said "quick march" I did the quick waltz
Then they shouted at me "put your best foot forward" - but
which foot?
I said "it's very fine for you, you only got a choice of two"
But me, I'm Jake the Peg, diddle-iddle-iddle-um
With the extra leg... diddle-iddle-iddle-um
