Sittin' On A Fence
Sittin' On A Fence
Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards
First recording/First release by: The Rolling Stones - 1965/1967
Covered by multiple other artists
Since I was young I’ve been very hard to please
And I don’t know wrong from right
But there is one thing I could never understand
Some of the sick things that a girl does to a man, so
I’m just sittin’ on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I’m sittin' on a fence
All of my friends at school grew up and settled down
And they mortgaged up their lives
One thing's not said too much, but I think it’s true
They just get married cause there’s nothing else to do, so
I’m just sittin’ on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I’m sittin on a fence
I’m just sittin’ on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I’m sittin on a fence
The day can come when you get old and sick and tired of life
You just never realize
Maybe the choice you made wasn’t really right
But you go out and you don’t come back at night, so
I’m just sittin’ on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I’m sittin' on a fence

Picknick
Picknick
Performer(s): Boudewijn de Groot
De bloemenwei is groen getooid
We hebben bloemen rondgestrooid
Het goudgelokte lentekind en wij
Vriendinnen, vrienden, allemaal
Gezeten rond de vruchtenschaal
Ook u bent welkom, lach en kom erbij
We geven picknick
Onder wilgen, onder linden
Tussen klaprozen en winden
Teerbeminden in mijn hart
En sluit je ogen, pluk een bloem
Daar zit Onipos en Lennaert Nijgh
Van wie ik nog een tientje krijg
Het goudgelokte lentekind slaapt zacht
En zoete rook van blauwe kant
Omgeeft mijn hoofd als haartooiband
En druppels honing geuren op mijn vacht
We geven picknick
Met tante Bets en pater Janssen
Die al zelf en samen dansen
Leliekransen in hun haar
Kom maak muziek, pluk een bloem
We vragen u erbij
De rest is ook van mij
Lennaert Nijgh en ik we geven picknick
Nu speelt de blikken blazersband
Die meer dan honderd nummers kent
Het goudgelokte lentekind speelt fluit
Gekleed in vijgenblad van schuim
Vliegt Dylan door het hemelruim
Speelt hymnen op z'n harp en gouden luit
We geven picknick
Voor de elven en de feeën
Voor de runderen en reeën
Voor de twee en iedereen
Moet aardig zijn, pluk een bloem

Sittin' In The Balcony
Composer(s): John D. Loudermilk
First recording/First release by: Johnny Dee - 1956/1957
Covered by multiple other artists
I'm just a-sittin' in the balcony
just a-watchin' the movie
or maybe it's a symphony, I wouldn't know
I don't care about the symphonies
just a-cymballs and a-timpanies
I'm just a-sittin' in the balcony, on the very last row
I'll hold your hand and I'll kiss you too
the feature's over, but we're not through
just a-sittin' in the balcony
holdin' hands in the balcony
just a-sittin' in the balcony, on the very last row
we may stop lovin' to watch bugs bunny
but he can't take the place of my honey
just a-sittin' in the balcony
just a-snootchin' in the balcony
just a-sittin' in the balcony, on the very last row
just a-huggin' and a-kissin'
with my baby in the very last row

Pickin' A Chicken
Composer(s): Paddy Roberts;
Derek Bernfield; Garfield De Mortimer
Performer(s): Jim Reeves;
Eve Boswell; Alma Cogan
Come to the barbecue and sit by my side
We couldn't choose a better night if we tried
Can't you imagine what a thrill it will be
Pickin' a chicken with me
It's so romantic, the moon up above
Is extra bright on a night such as this
Pullin' a wishbone with someone you love
Is almost certain to end with a kiss
So come to the barbecue, my darling my dear
I'm so in love with you and when you are near
I get a feeling that forever you'll be
Pickin' a chicken with me
It's so romantic, the moon up above
Is extra bright on a night such as this
Pullin' a wishbone with someone you love
Is almost certain to end with a kiss
So come to the barbecue, my darling my dear
I'm so in love with you and when you are near
I get a feeling that forever you'll be
Pickin' a chicken with me
Pickin' a chicken with me
Pickin' a chicken with me

Judy Min Vän
Judy Min Vän
Composer(s): Britt Lindeborg; Roger Wallis
First performance by: Tommy Körberg - 1969
Judy min vän vad du är tankfull
Varför Judy min vän?
Judy min vän du är tyst och sorgsen
Varför Judy min vän?
Börjar du inse nu att vi båda jag och du
Kanske aldrig kan bli lyckliga tillsammans
Judy min vän
Judy min vän du älskar saker, villa TV och bil
Din väg är kantad av lyx och prylar
Det är inte min stil
Våra mönster går isär låt mig säga det såhär
Jag kan aldrig bli den man som du behöver
Judy min vän
Gudarna, ja låt mig förklara
Lever för stunden när drömmarna varar
Detta är min filosofi, jag vill jämt känna
Jag är fri
Judy min vän din dröm om pengar
tycks mig liten och trång
Vi drömmer drömmen om gröna ängar
vinterns lek och en sång
Kanske jag ändrar mig
Då hörs jag av
Då ska jag presentera mig som din
mister medel-Svensson
Judy min vän där går vår korsning
kanske ses vi igen, då får vi se
vad livet har gjort med oss
Judy min vän
Gudarna, ja låt mig förklara,
Lever för stunden när drömmarna varar
Detta är min filosofi, jag vill jämt känna
Jag är fri
Judy min vän där går vår korsning
kanske ses vi igen, då får vi se
vad livet har gjort med oss
Judy min vän
Judy min vän, Judy min vän...

Pick Yourself Up
Pick Yourself Up
Composer(s): Dorothy Fields; Jerome Kern
Performer(s): Fred Astaire
(He)
Please teacher, teach me something
Nice teacher, teach me something
I'm as awkward as a camel, that's not the worst
My two feet haven't met yet
But I'll be teacher's pet yet
'Cause I'm gonna learn to dance or burst
(She)
Nothing's impossible I have found
For when my chin is on the ground
I pick myself up
Dust myself off
Start all over again
Don't lose your confidence if you slip
Be grateful for a pleasant trip
And pick yourself up
Dust yourself off
Start all over again
Work like a soul inspired
Till the battle of the day is won
You may be sick and tired
But you'll be a man, my son!
Will you remember the famous men
Who had to fall to rise again?
So take a deep breath
Pick yourself up
Dust yourself off
Start all over again
(He)
I'll get some self assurance
If your endurance is great
I'll learn by easy stages
If you're courageous and wait
To feel the strength I want to
I must hang on to your hand
Maybe by the time I'm fifty
I'll get up and do a nifty
(Both)
Nothing's impossible I have found
For when my chin is on the ground
I pick myself up
Dust myself off
Start all over again
Don't lose your confidence if you slip
Be grateful for a pleasant trip
And pick yourself up
Dust yourself off
Start all over again
Work like a soul inspired
Till the battle of the day is won
You may be sick and tired
But you'll be a man, my son!
Will you remember the famous men
Who had to fall to rise again?
So take a deep breath
Pick yourself up
Dust yourself off
Start all over again

(Sittin' Here) Lovin' You
(Sittin' Here) Lovin' You
Composer(s): John Sebastian
Performer(s): Bobby Darin; William S. Emert; The Lovin' Spoonful
If you are wonderin'
What I'm gonna do
While you are sleepin'
Am I sleepin', too?
Well, I'm just sittin' here lovin' you
Closin' my eyes and lovin' you
I'm just sittin' back
Sittin' here lovin' you
I have been wonderin'
Just what I would do
If I weren't sleepin'
Had I not found you
I'd be outside findin' you
Walkin' on the avenue findin' you
But I'm just sittin' back
Sittin' here lovin' you
Now the reason that you never see me runnin' `round
Fingers on my forehead couldn't calm me down
She can't even get me up, on my feet
When I got to take care of some bus'ness on the street
I have been walkin'
All my streets alone
I would keep walkin'
To keep from goin' home
I couldn't quite barely conceive of you
Now I can't conceive of ever leavin' you
'Cause I'm just sittin' back
Sittin' here lovin' you
I have been walkin'
All my streets alone
I could keep walkin'
To keep from going home
I couldn't quite barely conceive of you
Now I can't conceive of ever leavin' you
'Cause I'm just sittin' back
Sittin' here lovin' you
I'm just sittin' back
Sittin' here lovin' you
I'm just sittin' back
Sittin' here lovin' you!

Pick Me Up And Lay Me Down In Dear Old Dixieland
Pick Me Up And Lay Me Down In Dear Old Dixieland
Composer(s): Bert Kalmar; Harry Ruby
One day I watched a flock of whippoor wills
as they flew to their homes across the hills
they were merrily flying, to the south I knew
and I couldn't help crying; "Take me there with you!"
Bring me down there beneath the Southern sky
sing me one little Dixie lullabye
there's a candle light burning
down old Dixie way tell the folks that I'm yearning
for them night and day
Pick me up, and lay me down in dear old Dixieland
the sun shines there each morn that's where the sun was born
My heart's been all wrapped up in that land of magic charms
carry me back to someone's empty arms
Keep those darkies singing, till I get back
to that ivy clinging ram shackle shack
Pick me up just like my mammy
lead me by the hand, and lay me down in dear old Dixie land

De Troubadour
De Troubadour
Composer(s): David Hartsema - Lenny Kuhr
First release by: Lenny Kuhr - 1969
Hij zat zo boordevol muziek, hij zong voor groot en klein publiek
Hij maakte blij, melancholiek, de troubadour
Voor ridders in de hoge zaal zong hij in stoere, sterke taal
Een lang en bloederig verhaal, de troubadour
Maar ook 't werkvolk uit de schuur hoorde zijn lied vol avontuur
Hoorde bij 't nachtelijke vuur, de troubadour, de troubadour
En in de herberg van de stad zong hij een drinklied op 't nat
Voor die nog staan kon en die zat, de troubadour, de troubadour
La lalalaa lala lailala lailala
Laa lalalailalalaa
La lalalaa lala lailala lailala
Laa lalalailalalaa
Hij zong in 't klooster stil zijn lied van een mirakel dat geschied
Ook als geen mens 't wonder ziet, de troubadour
Van vrouwen in fluweel of grijs zong hij de harten van de wijs
Zijn liefdeslied ging mee op reis, de troubadour
Hij zong voor boeren op 't land een kerelslied van eigen hand
Hij was van elke rang en stand, de troubadour, de troubadour
Zo zong hij heel z'n leven lang zijn eigen lied, zijn eigen zang
Toch gaat de dood gewoon zijn gang, de troubadour, de troubadour
Toen werd 't stil, het lied was uit, enkel wat modder tot besluit
Maar wie getroost werd door zijn lied vergeet 'm niet
Want hij zat zo boordevol muziek, hij zong voor groot en klein publiek
Hij maakte blij, melancholiek, de troubadour
Ohoh
La lalalaa lala lailala lailala
Laa lalalailalalaa
La lalalaa lala lailala lailala
Laa lalalailalalaa
Ahjahohahaa...

Little man
Quando sei qui con me io so che non mi devo più nascondere
Preghero
Solo che io sia li li con te quando il sol potrai raggiungere
Piccolo ragazzo tu corri sul mio prato
Piccolo ragazzo tu canti e ti ho sentito
Diventerai
Un uomo che capirà la verità
E sarai libero
Accenderai
La luce che c'è dentro me perchè io
Voglio credere
Piccolo ragazzo tu corri sul mio prato
Piccolo ragazzo tu canti e ti ho sentito
Tu ed io
Siamo noi solo noi quello che
Io vedo intorno a me
Little man
Tu lo sai ma tu sai anche che
Qualun'altro c'è
Piccolo ragazzo tu corri sul mio prato
Piccolo ragazzo tu canti e ti ho sentito
Piccolo ragazzo tu corri sul mio prato
Piccolo ragazzo ...

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"

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

Sit down you're rocking the boat"

I sailed
Ensemble:
Ooh...

Away on that little boat to Heaven
And by some chance found a bottle in my fist

But the passengers were bound to resist
For the people all said, "Beware!"

Ah, ah, ah, ah!
A great big wave came and washed me overboard
And as I sank, and I hollered

That's the moment I woke up, thank the Lord!
Ensemble:
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord!

nel tuo sguardo azzurro mi tufferò...

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

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
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

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

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
