Performer(s): Sammy Davis Jr.
and multiple other artists
Nicely-Nicely:
I dreamed last night I got on the boat to Heaven
And by some chance I had brought my dice along
And there I stood, and I hollered
"Someone fade me"
But the passengers they knew right from wrong
For the people all said
"Sit down, sit down you're rockin' the boat"
Ensemble:
People all said
"Sit down, sit down you're rockin' the boat"
Nicely-Nicely:
"And the devil will drag you under
By the sharp lapel of your checkered coat
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down
Nicely-Nicely & Ensemble:
Sit down you're rocking the boat"
Nicely-Nicely:
I sailed
Ensemble:
Ooh...
Nicely-Nicely:
Away on that little boat to Heaven
And by some chance found a bottle in my fist
And there I stood
Nicely passin' out the whiskey
But the passengers were bound to resist
For the people all said, "Beware!"
Ensemble:
People all said, "beware, beware!"
Nicely-Nicely:
You're on a heavenly trip"
People all said, "beware!"

And the devil will drag you under
By the fancy tie 'round your wicked throat
Sit down

Sit down, sit down, sit down
Sit down you're rockin' the boat"
Nicely-Nicely:
And as
Ensemble:
Ooh...
Nicely-Nicely:
I laughed at those passengers to Heaven
Ah, ah, ah, ah!
A great big wave came and washed me overboard
And as I sank, and I hollered
"Someone save me"
That's the moment I woke up, thank the Lord!
Ensemble:
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord!
Nicely-Nicely:
And I said to myself, "Sit down"

With a soul so heavy you'd never float
Sit down

Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down
Sit down you're rockin' the boat
Sit down you're rockin'
Rockin' the boat
Sit down you're rockin'

Rockin' the boat
Sit down you're rockin'
Rockin' the boat...
Sit down, you

Composer(s): Gianni Ferrio - Antonio Amurri
Performer(s): Teddy Reno
and multiple other artists
Mi farò prestare un soldino di sole
perchè regalare lo voglio a te…
Lo potrai posare sui biondi capelli
quella nube d'oro accarezzerò...
Questa piccolissima serenata
con un fìl di voce si può cantar…
Ogni innamorato all'innamorata
la sussurrerà, la sussurrerà…
Mi farò prestare un soldino di mare
perchè regalare lo voglio a te...
Lo potrai posare sugli occhi tuoi belli
nel tuo sguardo azzurro mi tufferò...
Questa piccolissima serenata
con un fìl di voce si può cantar…
Ogni innamorato all'innamorata
la sussurrerà, la sussurrerà…
Mi farò prestare un soldino di cielo
perchè regalare lo voglio a te…
Lo potrai posare sul bianco tuo velo
quando sull'altare ti porterò…
Questa piccolissima serenata
con un fil di voce si può cantar…
Ogni innamorato all'innamorata
la sussurrerà, la sussurrerà…

Sisters Of Mercy
Sisters Of Mercy
Composer(s): Leonard Cohen
First release by: Judy Collins - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists
Oh the sisters of mercy, they are not departed or gone
They were waiting for me when I thought that I just can't go on
And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song
Oh I hope you run into them, you who've been travelling so long
Yes you who must leave everything that you cannot control
It begins with your family, but soon it comes around to your soul
Well I've been where you're hanging, I think I can see how you're pinned
When you're not feeling holy, your loneliness says that you've sinned
Well they lay down beside me, I made my confession to them
They touched both my eyes and I touched the dew on their hem
If your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn
they will bind you with love that is graceful and green as a stem
When I left they were sleeping, I hope you run into them soon
Don't turn on the lights, you can read their address by the moon
And you won't make me jealous if I hear that they sweetened your night
We weren't lovers like that and besides it would still be all right
We weren't lovers like that and besides it would still be all right

Piccola Kathy
Piccola Kathy
Composer(s): Roby Facchinetti; Nicola Negrini
Performer(s): Pooh; Neri Per Caso
Oh oh, piccola Katy
Oh oh, piccola Katy
Oh oh oh!
Piccola Katy stanotte hai bruciato
tutti i ricordi del tuo passato
tutte le bambole con cui dormivi
ed il tuo diario che sempre riempivi
solo con ciò che faceva piacere
a chi di notte l'andava a vedere
piccola Katy
oh oh, piccola Katy
oh oh oh!
Piccola Katy stanotte hai capito
che carezzandoti ti hanno tradito
e alle tue mani ha negato il calore
che si conquista in un'ora d'amore
e in questo mattino di grigia foschia
di colpo hai deciso di andartene via
piccola Katy
vai vai piccola Katy
vai vai vai!
Piccola Katy la porta è socchiusa
non devi nemmeno inventare una scusa
dormono tutti di un sonno profondo
e questo silenzio e' la fine del mondo
chiudi pian piano e ritorna a dormire
nessuno al mondo ti deve sentire
piccola Katy
bye bye piccola Katy
bye bye piccola Katy

Due Grosse Lacrime Bianche
Due Grosse Lacrime Bianche
Composer(s): Piero Soffici - Claudio Daiano
First performance by: Iva Zanicchi - 1969
Il nostro cuore dicevi sempre
Non è una stanza che si affitta
Noi ci lasciamo, la stanza è vuota
La porta aperta resterà
Due grosse lacrime bianche
Come due perle del mare
È tutto quel che a me rimane di te
D'amore no, non si muore
Per non sentir la tua voce
La testa sotto il cuscino io nasconderò
Come un lampo che apre il cielo
Ho visto chiaro in mezzo al buio
Solo d'amore, no, non si muore
Ridendo, me l'hai detto tu
Due grosse lacrime bianche
Come due perle del mare
È tutto quel che a me rimane di te
Due grosse lacrime bianche
Che non fanno rumore
Perché le ultime sai non pesano mai

Picasso Colombe
Picasso Colombe
Composer(s): Jean Ferrat; Henri Gougaud
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat
Il était un homme-oiseau
Qui cueillit le monde rond
L'ouvrit de ses doigts pipeaux
L'enfouit dans son oeil citron
Puis déshabilla les dieux
Les fit danser dans les bois
Les croqua de ses dents bleues
Les enivra de hautbois
Picasso colombe au laurier
Fit Guernica la mort aux cornes
Pour que dans un monde sans bornes
La nuit ne vienne plus jamais
La nuit ne vienne plus jamais
Il était un homme-fruit
Qui roula dans l'herbe crue
Sur une femme pétrie
Par un dieu Pan au poil dru
Femme il fendit ton chignon
D'un coup de soleil tranchant
Le fendit comme un oignon
Dans la cuisine des champs
Picasso colombe au laurier
Fit Guernica la mort aux cornes
Pour que dans un monde sans bornes
La nuit ne vienne plus jamais
La nuit ne vienne plus jamais
Il était un homme enfin
Prit le fruit et le croqua
Prit l'oiseau le fit humain
Coloriant aux éclats
But le temps et s'enivra
But le vin qui devint pur
Prit la cage et la brisa
Sur la porte du futur
Picasso colombe au laurier
Fit Guernica la mort aux cornes
Pour que dans un monde sans bornes
La nuit ne vienne plus jamais
La nuit ne vienne plus jamais
La nuit ne vienne plus jamais

Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves
Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves
Composer(s): Annie Lennox; Dave Stewart
Performer(s): Eurythmics
and multiple other artists
Now there was a time when they used to say
That behind every - "great man"
There had to be a - "great woman"
But in these times of change you know
That it's no longer true
So we're comin' out of the kitchen
'Cause there's somethin' we forgot to say to you (we say)
Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standin' on their own two feet
And ringin' on their own bells
Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Now this is a song to celebrate
The conscious liberation of the female state!
Mothers - daughters and their daughters too
Woman to woman
We're singin' with you
The "inferior sex" got a new exterior
We got doctors, lawyers, politicians too
Everybody - take a look around
Can you see - can you see - can you see
There's a woman right next to you
Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standin' on their own two feet
And ringin' on their own bells
Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Now we ain't makin' stories
And we ain't layin' plans
'Cause a man still loves a woman
And a woman still loves a man
(Just a same though)

Piazza Grande
Piazza Grande
Composer(s): Gianfranco Baldazzi;
Sergio Bardotti; Lucio Dalla
Performer(s): Lucio Dalla
Santi che pagano il mio pranzo non ce n'è
sulle panchine in Piazza Grande
ma quando ho fame di mercanti come me qui non ce n'è
Dormo sull'erba e ho molti amici intorno a me
gli innamorati in Piazza Grande
dei loro guai dei loro amori tutto so, sbagliati e no
A modo mio avrei bisogno di carezze anch'io
A modo mio avrei bisogno di sognare anch'io
Una famiglia vera e propria non ce l'ho
e la mia casa è Piazza Grande
a chi mi crede prendo amore e amore do, quanto ne ho
Con me di donne generose non ce n'è
rubo l'amore in Piazza Grande
e meno male che briganti come me qui non ce n'è
A modo mio avrei bisogno di carezze anch'io
Avrei bisogno di pregare Dio
Ma la mia vita non la cambierò mai mai
a modo mio quel che sono l'ho voluto io
Lenzuola bianche per coprirci non ne ho
sotto le stelle in Piazza Grande
e se la vita non ha sogni io li ho e te li do
E se non ci sarà più gente come me
voglio morire in Piazza Grande
tra i gatti che non han padrone come me attorno a me

The Wages Of Love
The Wages Of Love
First performance by: Muriel Day - 1969
Look before you leap right into love, my friend
It cannot be bought so very cheap, my friend
Love that makes you laugh
Love that makes you cry
Before you really understand it
It can make you live, it can make you die
There will be bridges to be crossed
And there'll be teardrops to be lost
Or you will have to pay the cost
Just wait and see, oh yeah
There are many rainbows on the way
Days are maybe bright or maybe grey
So when you fall in love, you pay
The wages of love
The wages of love
The wages of love
Just take my advice, don't be a fool, my friend
When you fall in love, you go to school, my friend
Lessons must get learned
Fingers must get burned
Before you really understand it
Love is very nice if you pay the price
There will be bridges to be crossed
And there'll be teardrops to be lost
Or you will have to pay the cost
Just wait and see, oh yeah
There are many rainbows on the way (On the way)
Days are maybe bright or maybe grey (Maybe grey)
So when you fall in love, you pay
The wages of love
The wages of love
The wages of love
There will be bridges to be crossed (To be crossed)
And there'll be teardrops to be lost (To be lost)
Or you will have to pay the cost
Just wait and see
There are many rainbows on the way (On the way)
Days are maybe bright or maybe grey (Maybe grey)
So when you fall in love, you pay
The wages of love
The wages of love
The wages of love

Estou aqui na plataforma
Da Estação Primeira
O Morro veio me chamar
De terno branco e chapéu de palha
Vou me apresentar à minha nova parceira
Já mandei subir o piano pra Mangueira
A minha música não é de levantar
Poeira
Mas pode entrar no barracão
Onde a cabrocha pendura a saia
No amanhecer da quarta-feira

Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Rosemary Clooney & Trudy Stevens
and multiple other artists
Sisters, Sisters
There were never such devoted sisters
Never had to have a chaperone, no sir
I'm here to keep my eye on her
Caring, sharing
Every little thing that we are wearing
When a certain gentleman arrived from Rome
She wore the dress and I stayed home
All kinds of weather, we stick together
The same in the rain or sun
Two different faces, but in tight places
We think and we act as one
Those who've seen us
Know that not a thing could come between us
Many men have tried to split us up
But no one can, nobody can
Lord help the mister
Who comes between me and my sister
And Lord help the sister
Who comes between me and my man

Performer(s): Joe Dassin
Le premier métro s'en va dans la nuit
Un bon café chaud avant d'aller au lit
C'est tous les matins la même musique
Train-train quotidien, piano mécanique
Dans un pop rétro
Tout près de la Cité
Chaque soir il va jouer
Foxtrots et tangos
Musique à grand-papa
Pour des tas de fils à papa
Du Cole Porter et du Gershwin
C'est de la routine
Il n'est pas fâché
D'aller se coucher
Le premier métro s'en va dans la nuit
Trois notes et trois mots avant d'aller au lit
Il fait des chansons, paroles et musique
Train-train quotidien, piano mécanique
Il est plein d'espoir
Il s'endort en passant
Sûr que ça va plaire aux gens
On verra ce soir
Il faut que je l'essaie
C'est peut-être un grand succès
De Cole Porter ou de Gershwin
C'est de la routine
Je ne serais pas fâché
De le remplacer
Le dernier métro s'en va dans la nuit
Dans son bar rétro il joue sa mélodie
Mais personne ici n'entend sa musique
Train-train quotidien, piano mécanique

Maman, Maman
Maman, Maman
Composer(s): Jo Perrier
First performance by: Jean-Jacques - 1969
Maman, maman
J'ai fait un rêve merveilleux
Maman, maman
Et que j'étais devenu grand
Je marchais au pas
Casque, fusil et sac au dos
Dans la lumière du matin
Le soleil brillait tout là-haut
Il me suivait comme un copain
Maman, maman
J'ai fait un rêve merveilleux
Maman, maman
Nous étions partis tous les deux
Sur un grand bateau
Tout blanc flottait pavillon haut
Et moi, j'étais le commandant
Parti pour les Iles du Vent
Tu étais fière de moi, maman
Maman, maman
J'ai fait un rêve merveilleux
Mais soudain tout s'arrête
De mon rêve d'enfant
Et je vois apparaître
La vraie vie des grands
J'ai le temps, j'ai le temps
Maman, maman
J'ai fait un rêve malheureux
Maman, maman
Je te voyais les cheveux blancs
Je veux oublier
Le soldat et le grand bateau
Auprès de toi je veux rester
Et que Dieu te garde longtemps
Toi, la plus belle des mamans
Maman, maman
Je veux rester encore enfant
Garde-moi près de toi, maman
Garde-moi près de toi, maman

Piano Man
Piano Man
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
He says, "Son, can you play me a melody?
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"
La la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da
Chorus:
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me"
As the smile ran away from his face
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"
Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da
Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talkin' with Davy who's still in the navy
And probably will be for life
And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinkin' alone
Chorus
It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
To forget about life for a while
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?"
Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da
Chorus

Composer(s): Scott Cutler; Jeff Hull; Brenda Russell
Performer(s): Brenda Russell;
and various other artists
When I find myself watchin' the time
I never think about all the funny things you said
I feel like it's dead
Where is it leading me now
I turn around in the still of the room
Knowin' this is when I'm gonna make my move
Can't wait any longer
And I'm feeling stronger but oh
Just as I walk (just a little more time) to the door
I can feel your emotion yeah it's pullin' me back
(Just a little more time) back to love you
(Chorus:)
Oh no caught up in the middle
I cry just a little when I think of lettin' go
Oh no gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little when he plays piano in the dark
He holds me close like a thief of the heart
He plays a melody born to tear me all apart
The silence is broken
And no words are spoken but oh
Just as I walk (just a little more time) to the door
I can feel your emotion yeah it's pullin' me back
(Just a little more time) back to love you
(Repeat Chorus)
Oh the silence is broken
No words are spoken but oh
Just as I walk (just a little more time) to the door
I can feel your emotion (oh baby) oh baby hold me back
(Just a little more time) back to love you
Oh no caught up in the middle
I cry just a little when I think of lettin' go
Oh no gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little ooh I cry I cry I know

¿Cuántas noches vagando
Por mil caminos sin fin?
¿Cuántas noches callando
Cuánto te quise decir?
Una profunda esperanza
Y un eco lejano me hablaba de ti
Hoy que volviste a mi vida
Ya solo canto por ti
Desde que llegaste ya no vivo llorando
Vivo cantando, vivo soñando
Sólo quiero que me digas qué está pasando
Que estoy temblando de estar junto a ti
Desde que llegaste ya no vivo llorando (hey)
Vivo cantando (hey), vivo soñando (hey)
Pero me pregunto que tu amor hasta cuándo
Podré guardarlo muy dentro de mí

Que estoy temblando de estar junto a ti

Pronto
Ascolta mamma è vicino a te?
devi dire a mamma
c'è qualcuno che
Chi sei il signore dell'altra volta?
vado a chiamarla ma sta facendo il bagno
non so se può venire
Dille che son qui
dille che è importante
che aspetterò
Ma tu hai fatto qualche cosa alla mia mamma?
quando chiami tu mi dice sempre
digli che non ci sono
Ma dimmi sai scrivere di già
è bella la tua casa
a scuola come va?
Bene ma dato che la mia mamma lavora
è una vicina che mi accompagna a scuola
però ho solo una firma sul mio diario
gli altri hanno quella del loro papà io no
Dille che son qui che soffro da sei anni
tesoro proprio la tua età
Eh no! io ho cinque anni
ma tu la conosci la mia mamma
non mi ha mai parlato di te
aspetta, eh
Piange il telefono
perché lei non verrà
anche se grido ti amo
lo so che non mi ascolterà
piange il telefono
perché non hai pietà
però nessuno mi risponderà
L'estate andate a villeggiare all'hotel riviera
ti piace il mare?
Oh si tanto, lo sai che so nuotare
ma dimmi come fai a conoscere l'hotel riviera
ci sei stato anche tu?
Dille la mia pena è qua a tutte e due
vi voglio bene
Ci vuoi bene!
ma io non t'ho mai visto
ma che cos'hai perché hai cambiato voce
ma tu piangi, perché?
Piange il telefono
perché lei non verrà
anche se grido ti amo
lo so che non mi ascolterà
piange il telefono
perché non hai pietà
però nessuno mi risponderà
ricordati però
piango al telefono
l'ultima volta ormai
ed il perché domani tu lo saprai
falla aspettare
sta uscendo
falla fermare
è andata via
se è andata via
allora addio
arrivederci signore
ciao piccola
