Zamba De Juan Panadero

Zamba De Juan Panadero
Composer(s): Leguizamón; Castilla
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar



Qué lindo que yo me acuerde
de Don Juan Riera cantando
que así le gustaba al hombre
lo nombren de vez en cuando

Panadero Don Juan Riera
con el lucero amasaba
y daba esa flor de trigo
como quien entrega el alma

Cómo le iban a robar
ni queriendo a Don Juan Riera
si a los pobres les dejaba
de noche la puerta abierta

A veces hacía jugando
un pan de palomas blancas
Harina su corazón,
al cielo se le volaba

Por su amistad en el vino
sin voz queriendo cantaba
Y a su canción como al pan
la iban salando sus lagrimas

Moving so fast you can't see him go by

Everybody's talking bout Surfer Dan
Doheny to Nirvana in his Chevy Sedan
Moving so fast you can't see him go by

Super Stock surfer jock down to his knees
He's so ripped he can't see you go by

Surfer Dan someone that everyone knows
(he's so cool you know his cool is cool)
27 girls follow wherever he goes

Everybody's looking for Surfer Dan
Skinny Minnie, mom & dad and Uncle Sam
He's so cool they can't see him go by

(Whahooo, Wah, Wah Wahooo ...)

Surfer Dan someone that everyone knows

27 girls follow wherever he goes

Zamba De Lozano
Composer(s):
J. Manuel Castilla; Gustavo Leguizamón

Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto



Cielo arriba de Jujuy
camino a la puna me voy a cantar
flores de los torales
bailan las cholitas el carnaval

En los ojos de las llamas
se mira solita la luna de sal
y están los remolinos
en los arenales dele bailar

Ramito de albahaca
niña Yolanda donde estará
atrás se quedó alumbrando
su claridad
flores de los torales
bailan las cholitas el carnaval

Jujeñita quien te vio
en la puna triste te vuelve a querer
mi pena se va al aire
y en el aire llora su parecer

Me voy yendo volveré
los tolares solos se han vuelto a quedar
se quemará en tus ojos
zamba enamorada del carnaval

Ramito de albahaca
niña Yolanda donde estará
atrás se quedó alumbrando
su claridad vuelvo a las abajeñas
ya mi caballito no puede más

Zamba Del "Che"

Zamba Del "Che"
Composer(s): Rubén Ortiz
Performer(s): Victor Jara



Vengo cantando esta zamba
con redoble libertario
mataron al guerrillero
Che comandante Guevara
Selvas, pampas y montañas
patria o muerte su destino

Que los derechos humanos
los violan en tantas partes
en America Latina
domingo, lunes y martes
Nos imponen militares
para sojuzgar los pueblos
dictadores, asesinos
gorilas y generales

Explotan al campesino
al minero y al obrero
cuanto dolor su destino
hambre miseria y dolor
Bolivar le dio el camino
y Guevara lo siguio
liberar a nuestro pueblo
del dominio explotador

A Cuba le dio la gloria
de la nacion liberada
Bolivia tambien le llora
su vida sacrificada
San Ernesto de la higuera
le llaman los campesinos
selvas, pampas y montañas
patria o muerte su destino

Vengo desde el olvido
toro serrano
Pa' ver si mato penas
carnavaleando

Me anda faltando plata
chicha, coraje
y un empujón del diablo
pa' enamorarte

Carnavales carperos
la chicha y la albahaca llorando en el vino
Los caballos atados vuelven a la luna al galope tendido
Y un empujón del diablo me anda faltando

Ven, bailemos la zamba
los dos solitos
quiero trampearte el alma
con mi gualicho

Tu pañuelito al aire
busca consuelo
Mi corazón lo sigu
de vuelo en vuelo

Christmas In My Heart


Christmas In My Heart
Composer(s): Rosalyn Winters - Douglas Fraser - Julia Fraser
Performer(s): Ray Charles



Winter nights, twinkling lights
And snowflakes falling to the ground
The air is filled with Christmas
Santa’s sleigh, kids at play
It’s that magic time of year
When love is all around us
And that magic seems
To reach right out and touch me again
Just like the years before
It’s Christmas in my heart

It seems that time stands still for Christmas
It’s time for laughter and cheer
A time for giving to others
And sharing our love with those we hold so dear

To soon the season’s over
As I face the New Year
This wish I make oh yeah
At every start, maybe Christmas
Always Christmas in my heart

Seems that time stands still for Christmas
It’s time for laughter and cheer
A time for giving to others
And sharing our love with those we hold so dear

To soon the season’s over
And as I face the New Year
This wish I make on every start
Maybe Christmas
Always Christmas in my heart

Oh, Oh
It’s just Christmas in my heart
Have a good time

Zangra
Composer(s): Jacques Brel
Performer(s): Jacques Brel; Rod McKuen



Je m'appelle Zangra et je suis lieutenant
Au fort de Belonzio qui domine la plaine
D'où l'ennemi viendra qui me fera héros
En attendant ce jour je m'ennuie quelquefois
Alors je vais au bourg voir les filles en troupeaux
Mais elles rêvent d'amour et moi de mes chevaux

Je m'appelle Zangra et déjà capitaine
Au fort de Belonzio qui domine la plaine
D'où l'ennemi viendra qui me fera héros
En attendant ce jour je m'ennuie quelquefois
Alors je vais au bourg voir la jeune Consuelo
Mais elle parle d'amour et moi de mes chevaux

Je m'appelle Zangra maintenant commandant
Au fort de Belonzio qui domine la plaine
D'où l'ennemi viendra qui me fera héros
En attendant ce jour je m'ennuie quelquefois
Alors je vais au bourg boire avec don Pedro
Il boit à mes amours et moi à ses chevaux

Je m'appelle Zangra je suis vieux colonel
Au fort de Belonzio qui domine la plaine
D'où l'ennemi viendra qui me fera héros
En attendant ce jour je m'ennuie quelquefois
Alors je vais au bourg voir la veuve de Pedro
Je parle enfin d'amour mais elle de mes chevaux

Je m'appelle Zangra hier trop vieux général
J'ai quitté Belonzio qui domine la plaine
Et l'ennemi est là je ne serai pas héros

Sure Hit Songwriter's Pen


Sure Hit Songwriter's Pen
Composer(s): Shel Silverstein
First release by: Bobby Bare - 1973
Covered by: Shel Silverstein - 1978



I was hangin' round Nashville writin' songs
And playin' them for all of the stars
Watchin' them laugh and hand 'em back
Livin' on hope and Hershey bars
So I pawned my guitar and bought a ticket home
And I's a headin' for the trailway bus
When I seen an old fountain pen layin' in the gutter
So I stopped and picked it up
It was worn out and bent and cast aside
Kinda sorta like myself
So I sat down on the curb and wrote a little song
That told the world how both of us felt
Then I run that song down the Music Row
And before I had time to spit
It's pitched and sold and cut for a record
And movin' up the charts and damned, it's a hit
So I wrote me another winner
Then I wrote me a smash again
And it's a flyin' off the ground
'Cause I knew I found me a sure hit songrwiter pen

So the songs they just kept a pourin' out
And the money kept pourin' in
Oh, I just couldn't miss
All it took was a twist of my sure hit songwriter's pen
Remember when I won the Grammy
Then I won it again and again
Well none of you knew it was all due
To my sure hit songwriter's pen
I was a darling of all of the ladies
I was a hero among the men
Makin' big dough workin' rodeos and TV shows
Me and my sure hit songwriter pen
But then one night in Wichita
I was just comin' off of the stage
Folks all lined up screamin' for my autograph
And, Lord, I was a nation rage
One little freckle faced girl was there
She said I got no pencil sir
So I signed it with my songwriter pen
And then handed the pen back to her

Four o'clock that morning
I woke up with the shakes and the bends
With terror in my eyes 'cause, good God, I realized
I'd lost my sure hit songwriter pen
I offered rewards in papers
And I pleaded on the sympathy line
And a whole lotta folks sent a whole lotta pens
But none of them pens was mine
So my songs got worse and my money ran out
And so did all my good time friends
And there was no doubt I was nothing
Without my long lost sure hit songwriter pen
So I rolled like a stone down old Skid Row
Where I feed my blues on wine
And I rest my chops in a two-bit flop
And I tell my story for a drink or a dime
And I sleep with my shoes underneath my head
Dream about days back then
When I blazed my name across the sky
With my sure hit songwriter pen

Somewhere in Wichita, some little girl
Who's freckle faced and nine or ten
Is doin' her arithmetic homework tonight
With the sure hit songwriter's pen
I'll say God bless you honey
You got yourself a sure hit songwriter pen there
Write a song for me baby
You got a sure hit songwriter pen
Send me some money
You got a sure hit songwriter pen

Zanzibar

Zanzibar
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel; Vincent Herring



Ali dances and the audience applauds
Though he's beathed in sweat he hasn't lost his style
Ali don't you go downtown
You gave away another round for free

Me, I'm just another face at Zanzibar
But the waitress always serves a secret smile
She's waiting out in Shantytown
She's gonna pull the curtains down for me, for me

(chorus)
I've got the old man's car,
I've got a jazz guitar
I've got a tab at Zanzibar
Tonight that's where I'll be

Rose, he knows he's such a credit to the game
But the Yankees grab the headlines every time
Melodrama's so much fun
In black and white for everyone to see
Me, I'm trying just to get to second base
And I'd steal it if she only gave the sign
She's gonna give the go ahead
The inning isn't over yet for me

(chorus)

Tell the waitress I'll come back to Zanzibar
I'll be hiding inthe darkness with my beer.
She's waiting out in Shantytown
She's gonna pull the curtaains down for me, for me

(chorus)

Sure Had A Wonderful Time Last Night


Sure Had A Wonderful Time Last Night
Composer(s): Claude Demetrius - Louis Jordan - Fleecie Moore
Performer(s): B.B. King; Chris Daniels; The Treniers



I sure had a wonderful time last night
Least wise they tell me I did

I sure had a wonderful time last night
Really blew my lid

Went to a party, I recollect that much
But after four or five, you know I lost my touch
I sure had a wonderful time last night
Least wise they tell me I did

I had a whale of good time last night
Really got myself some kicks
I sure had a wonderful time last night
Took me right back to the sticks

Between that hillbilly band and old Uncle Zeke
And that new atomic beverage that they called "Sneaky Pete"

I sure had a wonderful time last night
Least wise they tell me I did

Sure had a wonderful time last night
Don't know how I got to bed

Sure had a wonderful time last night
Come here, feel this lump on my head

They say I got kinda noisy
And started to shout
Four big bouncers grabbed me
But I threw them out
I sure had a wonderful time last night
Least wise they tell me I did

Sure had a wonderful time last night
Really had myself some fun

Sure had a wonderful time last night
Didn't get home until about half past one

You know I'd like to take you with me the next time I go
But where the heck was it?
Sure would like to know
But I sure had a wonderful time last night

Zapatillas Y Libros

Zapatillas Y Libros
Composer(s): Pedro Aznar
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar



Parte muy temprano hacia la escuela
ocho añitos pesan el bolsón
Por el techo pobre el sol se cuela
como un ladrón, como un ladrón
Piensa que ojalá esta vez no llueva
en su corazón

Su imaginación a veces vuela
se le va muy lejos del galpón
Se silba bajito y se consuela
con su canción, con su canción
una que escuchó a las lavanderas
lavar al son

En el pueblo esperan un milagro
todos dan la espalda menos Dios
Tantos se han quedado sin trabajo
sin pan ni voz, sin pan ni voz

El río teñido de canela
le enseñó paciencia y dirección
Su madre pasó la noche en vela
en su dolor, en su dolor
El jura en silencio ya no verla
en desazón

El pone esperanza y gasta suelas
del único par que ya achicó
Hoy nada asegura más la mesa
por más sudor o educación
Molino del mundo no le muelas
esa ilusión, esa ilusión
Molino del mundo no le muelas
su determinación

Sure Gonna Miss Her


Sure Gonna Miss Her
Composer(s): Bobby Russell
First release by: Gary Lewis & The Playboys - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists



I never did too much to make her stay here
And words of love to her I'd never say
I guess I learned a lesson when she walked out to stay
But I'm sure gonna miss her, sure gonna miss her, sure gonna miss
her every day

I don't suppose I ever said "I love you"
And I found out too late that wasn't right
I'm just now realizin' what I lost, that's why I'm cryin'
And I'm sure gonna miss her, sure gonna miss her, sure gonna miss
her every night

I know I took her love for granted
Guess you could say my love was blind
Thought if she left that I could stand it
Or else it didn't matter at the time

I heard she's found a guy that treats her better
I hope he knows that *he's a lucky guy*
I know the rumor's true because I saw her today
And I'm sure gonna miss her, he was walking with her, sure gonna
miss her, yes I am

Van Holmen; N. Byl; Van Aleda
Performer(s): Jimmy Frey



Zaterdag, vrije dag
Maar wat met de tijd gedaan
Zaterdag, lege dag
Geen afspraak om uit te gaan
Ik zit bij de telefoon
Waarom, waarom blijft die doof en stom

Zaterdag, kwart voor acht
Te vroeg om naar bed te gaan
Zaterdag, en ik wacht
En hoop dat de bel zou gaan
Maar niemand geeft mij een wenk
Geen vriend, geen meisje die aan me denkt
Neen niemand geeft mij een wenk
Geen vriend, geen meisje die aan me denkt

Zaterdag, vrije dag
Dus even naar buiten gaan
Zaterdag, tegenslag
Nu komt er nog regen aan
De wereld is tegen mij
En al de schuld daarvan ben jij
