Sixteen Tons
Sixteen Tons
Composer(s): Merle Travis
First release by: Merle Travis - 1947
Covered by multiple other artists
Titles In Other Languages:
1956 - Seize Tonnes
1986 - L'ascensore
Some people say man is made out of mud
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bone
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong
You load sixteen tons and what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the store-boss said the "Well-a bless my soul"
You load sixteen tons and what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the cane-brake by an old mama lion
Cain't no a high-tone woman make me walk the line
You load sixteen tons and what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
If you see me comin', better step aside
A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't git ya, then the left one will
You load sixteen tons and what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

Piedra Y Camino
Piedra Y Camino
Composer(s): Atahualpa Yupanqui
Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto;
and various other artists
Del cerro vengo bajando
camino y piedra
tengo enrredada en el alma, vida
una tristeza
Me acusas de no quererte
no digas eso
tal vez no comprendas nunca, vida
por que me alejo
Es mi destino
piedra y camino
de un sueño lejano y bello
soy peregrino
Por mas que la dicha
vivo penando
y cuando debo quedarme, vida
me voy andando
A veces soy como el rio
llego cantando
sin que nadie lo sepa, vida
me voy llorando

Seize Tonnes
Seize Tonnes
(Adapted from: Sixteen Tons - 1947)
(Italian Version: L'ascensore - 1986)
Composer(s): Merle Travis; Jacques Larue
Performer(s): Armand Mestral - 1956
and multiple other artists
Si l'homme est de la boue pour des tas de gens
Il est pour moi fait de chair et de sang
De muscles de fer et d'un coeur trop bon
Et de deux épaules pour charger le charbon
T'en fais seize tonnes, ça te donne quoi?
Un jour de plus vers quatre planches de bois
La pelle chaque jour qui prend plus de poids
Mais qui fera vivre la mine sans toi?
Quand ta mère a déjà cinq gosses à nourrir
Un de plus n'est pas pour lui faire plaisir
Alors toi, tu bosses comme un lion
Mais le chef a beau dire que t'es un champion
T'en fais seize tonnes, ça te donne quoi?
Un jour de plus vers quatre planches de bois
La pelle chaque jour qui prend plus de poids
Mais qui fera vivre la mine sans toi?
Quand pendant toute la semaine, tu t'crèves en bas
L'dimanche enfin, tout le ciel est à toi
Et dans tes draps blancs, dès ton réveil,
Les yeux de ta femme sont comme des soleils
T'en fais seize tonnes, ça te donne quoi?
Un jour enfin où tu peux croire à la joie
La pelle chaque jour qui prendra plus de poids
Mais qui fera vivre la mine sans toi?

Piedad Señor
Piedad Señor
Composer(s): Aurora M. Segura; Mario Molina Montes
Performer(s): Javier Solís
Señor, de tu gran poder
piedad vengo a suplicar
De hinojos estoy postrado ante tu altar
Señor oye mi oración
No voy a pedir de ti la gloria de un nuevo amor
te vengo a rogar me ayudes a olvidar
aquél que mi fe mató
Envía sobre mí un manto grueso y gris
que cubra mi dolor
Después mándame dolor
Mi error tengo que pagar
pero hoy, por caridad
ayúdame a olvidar
Señor, bórrame su amor
Señor, hazlo por piedad
¡Piedad!, Señor

L'ascensore
L'ascensore
(Adapted from: Sixteen Tons - 1947)
(French Version: Seize Tonnes - 1956)
Composer(s): Merle Travis; Depsa
Performer(s): Adriano Celentano - 1986
Appena fui al mondo mi ritrovai
in un grattacielo più alto che mai
e poi per istinto o quello che fu
mi misi in fila per salire lassù
e l' ascensore partì ed ero con gli altri
tra i bimbi di un colore che è diverso dal mio
ognuno una speranza dentro se
chissà la in cima il sole che c' è
e arrivai al primo piano non lo so come fu
mi accorsi che invidiavano la mia gioventù
nell'ascensore entrò un uomo e sparò
e i miei primi sogni lui già me li rubò
ragazzi andiamo su saliamo perchè
in cima al grattacielo tutto meglio è
il mondo ci appartiene siam figli suoi
qui non c' ha posto chi ride di noi
ed un bel giorno vidi entrar lei
di quel suo sorriso io mi innamorai
salire fino in cima con me vorrà
legati insieme con due anelli o un destino a metà
e ancora oggi io continuo a star su
e i piani che ho salito non li conto più
son stati belli o brutti lo rifarei
il viaggio organizzato per noi
e qui sale gente della mia stessa età
e già lo sanno tutti che qualcosa non va
non hanno nuove speranze non credono più
presto chiamate l'ascensore che è andato lassù

Pieces Of My Life
Pieces Of My Life
Composer(s): Troy Seals
Performer(s): Elvis Presley;
and various other artists
Water glass full of whisky
Women that I never knew too well
Lord, the things I've seen and done
Most of which I'd be ashamed to tell
I don't know how it started
That's what makes a man a man, I guess
Now I'm holdin' on to nothin'
Tryin' to forget the rest
I'm lookin' back on my life
To see if I can find the pieces
I know that some were stolen
And some just blew away
Well I've found the bad parts
Found all the sad parts
But I guess I threw the best parts away
Lord, away, away
Playin' the bars, playin' like a star
Anything to get a name
Carryin' on, livin' on songs
My friends wrote for me to sing
I'm lookin' back on my life
To see if I can find the pieces
I know that some were stolen
And some just blew away
Well, I've found the bad parts
Found all the sad parts
But I guess I threw the best parts away
Lord, away, away
Lord, the pieces of my life
They're everywhere, they're everywhere
And the one I miss most of all
Is you... and you know who
Lookin' back on my life, Lord
To see if I can find the pieces
Lookin' back on my life today
To see if I can find the pieces
Lookin' back on my life
God help me find the pieces

Un Jardin Sur La Terre
Un Jardin Sur La Terre
First performance by: Serge Lama - 1971
À force de courir pour ne rien découvrir
De n'être aventurier que dans ses souvenirs
De faire des voyages comme on fait des affaires
Et perdre sa jeunesse comme on gagne une guerre
On arrive à se dire que rien n'est important
Qu'on n'a plus rien à dire, on a perdu son temps
Un jardin sur la Terre, un petit coin perdu
Juste un trompe-misère, un abri rien de plus
Un jardin sur la Terre pour qu'une fille ait son coeur
Et prendre à l'éphémère ce qu'il a de meilleur
Semer en étant sûr que l'on donne la vie
De la graine au bourgeon et de la fleur au fruit
Un jardin sur la Terre, un Eden avant l'heure
Un jardin sur la Terre, n'est-ce pas le bonheur?
À force de vouloir vivre à deux pour la vie
Au point de s'accoupler avec n'importe qui
De faire de son lit plusieurs champs de bataille
Collectionnant les coeurs à défaut de médailles
On arrive à se dire que rien n'est important
Qu'on n'a plus rien à dire, on a perdu son temps
Un jardin sur la Terre, un petit coin perdu
Juste un trompe-misère, un abri rien de plus
Un jardin sur la Terre pour cultiver son coeur
Et prendre à l'éphémère ce qu'il a de meilleur
Semer en étant sûr que l'on donne la vie
De la graine au bourgeon et de la fleur au fruit
Un jardin sur la Terre, un Eden avant l'heure
Donnez-moi un jardin sur la Terre

Pieces Of Mind
Pieces Of Mind
Composer(s): Jack Bruce; Pete Brown
Performer(s): Jack Bruce
Pieces of mind
See how they ran
Prizes of sun
Still to be won
When the life is made of straw
Waves that pound against the door
Leave me at the place of / throw it away / throw it away
Leave it today
Keep me dancing stop me grasping
Clouds that turn the dust on touching
Times I'm so far from / what I want
So much the same
Living in games
Pieces of cake
Until they break apart
They say the plane that comes to pass never rhymes
Now it burns on grass too steep to climb
Best of friends
Until the flowers end
Mines have taken their place
Darkness in their face
Now the golden coach is here
Can you cure me of the fear
Should I move into the clear
Find a time in which I / throw it away / get out today
Keep me singing stop me clutching
Rooms that turn to dust on clutching
Times I'm so far from / what I want
Merry-go-round
In a town without sound
Wings for hire
From the church with no choir
The burning ship is sailing
It will not leave without me
throw it way / get out today
Get out today
Keep me singing stop me clutching
Rooms that turn to dust on leaving
Times I'm so far from / what I want

Pieces Of Ice
Pieces Of Ice
Composer(s): M. Jordan; J. Capek
Performer(s): Diana Ross
Walking blind across this silver room
Looking through a smoke menagerie
Looking at your face inside of me
In the darkness you're Tunisia
Nights are long entropic
I can't seem to cope
It's cold when I look in your eyes
Pieces of ice
Pieces of ice
Pieces of ice
Pieces of ice
Where the zebra lightning strikes the room
Foreign words are strutted through the gloom
Women swooping down like birds of prey
Never close but never far away
Night are long entropic
I can't seem to cope
It's cold when I look in your eyes
Pieces of ice
Pieces of ice
Pieces of ice
Pieces of ice

En Un Mundo Nuevo
En Un Mundo Nuevo
Composer(s): T. Luz - R. Trabucchelli
First performance by: Karina - 1971
Sólo al final del camino, las cosas claras verás
la razón de vivir y el porqué de mil cosas más
Al mirar hacia atrás, cuando llegues comprenderás
Busca las cosas sencillas y encontrarás la verdad
La verdad de ese amor, lo demás déjalo pasar
Solamente el amor con el tiempo no morirá
Al fin del camino se harán realidad los sueños que llevas en ti
si en todo momento en tu caminar
la vida has llenado de amor y verdad
Al fin del camino podrás encontrar el bien que esperaste sentir
olvida el pasado, pues no volverá
conserva el amor que hay en ti
Al fin del camino habrá un despertar de nuevo volver a vivir
si en todo momento en tu caminar
la vida has llenado de amor y verdad
Al fin del camino en ti llevarás la fe y la ilusión de vivir
tus sueños de siempre se harán realidad
en un mundo nuevo y feliz
Al fin del camino en ti llevarás la fe y la ilusión de vivir
Tus sueños de siempre se harán realidad
en un mundo nuevo y feliz
en un mundo nuevo y feliz
en un mundo nuevo y feliz
Papara papapa papara papa… papara papa parara…
Tus sueños de siempre se harán realidad
si llenas tu vida de amor y paz
si llenas tu vida de amor y paz
en un mundo nuevo y feliz

Pieces Of April
Pieces Of April
Composer(s): Dave Loggins
Performer(s): Three Dog Night;
and various other artists
April gave us springtime and the promise of the flowers
And the feeling that we both shared and the love that we called ours
We had no time for sadness, that's a road we each had crossed
We were living a time meant for us, and even when it would rain
we would laugh it off
I've got pieces of April, I keep them in a memory bouquet
I've got pieces of April, but it's a morning in May
We stood on the crest of summer, beneath an oak that blossemed green
Feelings as I did in April, not really knowing what it means
But it must be ther that youstand beside me now to make me feel this way
Just as I did in April, but it's a morning in May
I've got pieces of April, I keep them in a memory bouquet
I've got pieces of April, but it's a morning in May

Sixteen Miles (To Seven Lakes)
Sixteen Miles (To Seven Lakes)
Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot
Performer(s): Gordon Lightfoot
Early in the morning when the dew is on
Each and every rose bud, you will find me gone
So knock me down and pick me up and knock me down again
Break my heart and steal my gold and slander my good name
Seven lonely hours on a morning train
Take me to a place where I won't come back again
Seven lonely Pullmans speeding down the line
Takin' me away from an old love of mine
Sixteen miles to seven lakes way up among the pines
In some hidden valley where the twirlin' river twines
Where the fish swim up and down and the sparklin' waters falls
Where the thunder roll and the lonely puma calls
Somewhere on the mountain I'll take another name
Rid my mind of memories and start my life again
Somewhere in the wilderness I'll build a cabin small
Then forget so I won't remember you at all

Give me a piece of yours

Diese Welt
Diese Welt
Composer(s): F. Jay - D. Zimmermann
First performance by: Katja Ebstein - 1971
Sternenklare Nächte
und die Luft ist wie Jasmin
Flüsse wie Kristall so klar
und Wälder saftig grün
Kann es das noch geben
oder ist es schon zu spät
daß für alle überall
dieser Traum noch in
Erfüllung geht
Diese Welt
diese Welt
hat das Leben uns geschenkt
Sie ist dein
sie ist mein
es ist schön auf ihr
was werden soll
liegt an dir
Rauch aus tausend Schloten
senkt sich über Stadt und Land
Wo noch gestern Kinder war'n
bedeckt heut Öl den Strand
In den Düsenriesen
fliegen wir dem Morgen zu
wie wird dieses Morgen sein
sinnlos oder voller Sonnenschein
Diese Welt
diese Welt...
Und ist sie auch ein Staubkorn nur
in der Unendlichkeit
nur dieser Stern ist unser Stern
die andern sind viel zu weit

Performer(s): Janis Joplin
Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on!
Didn’t I make you feel like you were the only man —yeah!
Didn’t I give you nearly everything that a woman possibly can?
Honey, you know I did!
And each time I tell myself that I, well I think I’ve had enough
But I’m gonna show you, baby, that a woman can be tough
I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it
Take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, have a!
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby
You know you got it if it makes you feel good
Oh, yes indeed
You’re out on the streets looking good
And baby deep down in your heart I guess you know that it ain’t right
Never, never, never, never, never, never hear me when I cry at night
Babe, I cry all the time!
And each time I tell myself that I, well I can’t stand the pain
But when you hold me in your arms, I’ll sing it once again
I’ll say come on, come on, come on, come on and take it!
Take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah
Oh, oh, have a!
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby
You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good
I need you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it
Take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!
oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, c’mon now
oh, oh, have a
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby
You know you got it —whoahhhhh!!
Take it!
Take it! Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, have a
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby, hey
You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good

I got sixteen chicks, sittin' in a tree
One turned around and took a look at me

Piece By Piece
Piece By Piece
Composer(s): Todd Rundgren; The Tubes
Performer(s): The Tubes
She looks good
but she's not alltogether right
all the parts are not screwed on tight
there's a touch of tragedy
When she moves
I can see the secret showing through
she'd deny it if she thought I knew
but she could never hide from me
Anyone would think there's nothing wrong
she looks so satisfied
but I've know about it much too long
she can't conceal what she feels inside
I'm gonna show her that
piece by piece, inch by inch
I can put her back together again
I'll supply the love she lacks
and give her back
exactly what she needs
bringing it piece by piece
all I need
to find a way around her depends
is just a little common sense
I don't have a strategy
I'll be the re
like I have so many other times
she'll reveal to me a certain side
that all that I can see
anyone would think there's nothing wrong
she seems like she's complete
but it's obvious its been too long
since she believed what she needs is me
Chorus:
I'm gonna show her that
piece by piece, inch by inch
I can put her back together again
I'll supply the love she lacks
and give her back
exactly what she needs
bringing it piece by piece
anyone would that there's nothing wrong
but she's not fooling me
everybody wants to lead her on
but I believe what she needs is me
what she needs is me
Chorus:
I'm gonna show her that
piece by piece, inch by inch
I can put her back together again..
I'll supply the love she lacks
and give her back
exactly what she needs
bringing it piece by
(Repeat Chorus:)
