Hasbrook Heights
Hasbrook Heights
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach; Hal David
Performer(s): Burt Bacharach; Dionne Warwick
If you ever get out to Hasbrook Heights
and you're dying to see some sights
don't be lonely
just phone me
I'll come and get you
I'll show you a good time
You won't need a motel in Hasbrook Heights
no one ever has a sleepless night
now at my house it's your house
go kick your shoes off
start having a good time
each day is like a week's vacation
come rest up
bring along your swim suit
that's how we get dressed up
You can get away from it all at Hasbrook Heights
if you're tired of neon lights
we've got sun beams and moon beams
and friendly people
they'll show you a good time
Throw some things in a grip
take the early train
It's a beautiful trip
don't forget the name
Hasbrook Heights, Hasbrook Heights

Composer(s): Christine McVie

Why not lie here in my arms
And listen to the night
You must know you have certain charm
And I feel the time is right
So spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little of your love (of your love)
Spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little of your love (of your love)
Now I know that I feel much more
Oh in every single way
And it's not the same as before
It gets stronger everyday
So spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little of your love (of your love)
Spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little of your love (of your love)
Now I know how the sun must feel
Every time it shines
And now I know this is real
And I want you to be mine
So spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little of your love (of your love)
Spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little (just a little bit)
Spare me a little of your love (of your love)
Just a little bit

Heaven Can't Be Found
Heaven Can't Be Found
Composer(s): Hank Williams Jr.
Performer(s): Hank Williams Jr.; Dusty Drake
I looked over at my pillow but your face wasn't there
and I don't smell the perfume you used to wear.......
And I don't see your blouse or jeans or your pretty white cotton gown
And I've looked all over hell...... but heaven can't be found
I've called and looked in every place you used to hang around
I've searched in every bar and club and honky tonk in town......
And I don't know if I can go on without breaking down
I've looked all over hell.....but heaven can't be found
I looked on the bedside table but your jewelry was all gone
And I just wish you'd call me every time I look at the phone.....
I looked in our dressing mirror and I saw myself break down
Oh I've looked all over hell......but heaven can't be found
I've called and looked in every place you used to hang around
I've searched in every bar and club and honky tonk in town......
And I don't know if I can go on without breaking down
I've looked all over hell.....but heaven can't be found

Has Sido Echado
Has Sido Echado
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Has sido echado del cuerpo a patadas
cuando más cerca te hallabas en reposo
Has sido echado del abrazo a patadas
cuando el calor comenzaba
a resultarte mejor
Has sido echado del techo a patadas
cuando empezaba a servirte para el frío
Has sido echado de la calle a patadas
cuando empezó a ser abrigo
el frío colgando del sol
Has sido echado del polvo una vez
y al polvo vuelves más tarde
Vas repartido en miserias de animal
y en ciertas risas también
Así, de cerca, pareces un señor
con una altura de mito
pero mirando de lejos puedo ver
que hay nubes entre tus pies
Has sido echado de todos los sitios
cuando este mundo comenzaba a contraerte
Has sido echado del mundo a patadas
a golpes suaves de vida
a caricias de amor
Ahora te echas de ti a patadas
pegas tan fuerte que vuelas de ti mismo
Guardemos pues la carrera de bala
que mientras te estén echando
no va a parar la función

Aha... aha...
Stay now and softly play the strings of my heart
Don't break my heart tonight, don't leave me when I cry
Stay now and softly play the strings of my heart
I want you by my side, you make me feel all right
And let the fiddler play on the strings of my heart
And let the fiddler play on the strings of my heart
Don't break my heart tonight, don't leave me when I cry
Stay now and softly play the strings of my heart
I want you by my side, you make me feel all right
And let the fiddler play on the strings of my heart
Don't break my heart, oh no
(Don't break my heart, don't break my heart, don't break my heart)
I want you by my side, you make me feel all right
(Right by my side, right by my side, I feel all right)
And let the fiddler play on the strings of my heart
(Strings of my heart)
And let the fiddler play on the strings of my heart

Heaven Can Wait
Composer(s): De Lange; James Van Heusen
Performer(s): Tommy Dorsey
Heaven can wait
This is paradise, just being here with you
And breathing the air you do, heaven can wait
Darling, it’s true, this is paradise
Gazing at all your charms
It’s heavenly in your arms, heaven can wait
You must be an angel on a visit from the skies
Now I look at heaven when I look into your eyes
Heaven can wait, this is paradise
Loving the way we do
Until I go there with you, heaven can wait

Has De Saber Mi Nombre
Has De Saber Mi Nombre
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Para amarme con la fuerza que yo necesito
con la fuerza de todo el amor
para odiarme con la fuerza que yo necesito
con la forma más fiera de odiar
has de saber mi nombre
sólo saber mi nombre
Yo me llamo semilla
cuando la tierra exige un hijo más
yo me llamo rocío
cuando la noche es seca y tiene sed
yo me he llamado compañía
yo me he llamado intensidad
pero por fuerza de costumbre
me llamo bala casi siempre
Para amarme con amor frente a viento y marea
con amor que se puede tocar
para odiarme con el odio que más se recrea
-con el odio que apaga la luz-
has de saber mi nombre
sólo saber mi nombre
Yo me llamo llovizna
si hay melancolía que vivir
yo me llamo saludo
cuando la ausencia estorba caminar
yo me he llamado poesía
yo me he llamado una canción
pero por fuerza de costumbre
me llamo bala casi siempre

Heaven And Hell
Heaven And Hell
Composer(s): John Entwistle
Performer(s): John Entwistle
On top of the sky is a place where you go
If you've done, nothing wrong
If you've done nothing wrong
And down in the ground is a place where you go
If you've been a bad boy
If you've been a bad boy
Why can't we have eternal life
And never die
Never die
In the place up above, you grow feather wings
And you fly, round and round
With a harp singing hymns
And down in the ground you grow horns
And a tail, and you carry a fork
And moan and wail
Why can't we have eternal life
And never die
Never die
On top of the sky is a place where you go
If you've done, nothing wrong
If you've done nothing wrong
And down in the ground is a place where you go
If you've been a bad boy
If you've been a bad boy
Why can't we have eternal life
And never die
Never die

Has Anybody Seen Our Cat?
Has Anybody Seen Our Cat?
Composer(s): T.W. Conner; James T. Powers
I'm upset now let me tell you why
Our old cat sneaked away, upon the sly
My old Ma declares it is a sign that bad luck's coming
and two to one it's mine!
I've been wond'ring who I am to blame for sneaking the bacon
and the brawn and the can of milk and beef steak pie
When they're missing on a Sunday morn!
Every night, as soon as we're in bed
All his old pals gather overhead
Gently calling for him to come out
and play a game of leapfrog 'round the gutter of the spout
In despair, I went to the police
They told me not to feel so blue
He might turn up in a penny mince pie or
With his wife, in a day or two!
Has anybody seen our cat?
Has anybody seen our cat?
He's got a bit o'black on the end of his tail
and the skin all off where he's been fighting
Last Sunday morning we miss'd him from the mat
Puss, puss, puss, puss, meat, meat, meat!
Has anybody seen our cat?

Too Much
Composer(s): Arnis Mednis - Gustavs Terzens
First performance by: Arnis Mednis - 2001
The day before marriage, I was out so long in the night
My lovely fiancée no more is feelin' my sight
Why do I feel this way? - Dunno, last night was great
But something's screwin' me up, I swear to God I will stop
Too much, too much, too much, I say
My life - it looks like a cabaret
Too much, too much, too much, enough
I swear I'll never use that stuff
Oo... baby, take me back (Okay)
Oh.... give me one more smile (All right)
You're mine and only one (We'll see)
Why, darling, you don't come?
The day after marriage, I went in the streets with my bride
She wanted coffee - oh no, I'm voting for beer
You see how good is she - my caring, lovely fiancée
We walked into the bar through light
Oh God - there's girls from last night
Too much, too much, too much, I say
My life - it looks like a cabaret
Too much, too much, too much, enough
I swear I'll never use that stuff
Oo... baby, take me back (Okay)
Oh.... give me one more smile (All right)
You're mine and only one (We'll see)
Why, darling, you don't come? (Too much)
Oo... baby, take me back (Okay)
Oh.... give me one more smile (All right)
You're mine and only one (We'll see)
Why, darling, you don't come? (Too much)

Heatwave
Heatwave
Whenever I'm with you
Something inside
Starts to burn deep
And my heart's filled with fire
Could be that I'm very sentimental
Or is this just the way love's supposed to be?
I got a heatwave
Burning in my heart
I can't keep from crying
Tearing me apart
Sometimes she calls my name
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I can't explain
I feel, yeah I feel
I feel this burning flame
This high blood pressure's got a hold on me
'Cause this is the way love's supposed to be
I got a heatwave
Burning in my heart
I can't keep from crying
Tearing me apart
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Just give me another chance
This could be a new romance

Spanish Rose
Spanish Rose
Composer(s): Charles Strouse - Lee Adams
Rosie:
I'm just a Spanish tamale according to Mae
Right off the boat from the tropics far far away
Which is kind of funny
Since where I come from is Allentown, Pa
Spanish!
Ok, may I'll be Spanish
Right after I've married Alberto
I'll be the toast of chi-chi Costanango,
And all day long my castanets will click!
I'll hide behind my fan and do the tango!
I'll be so Spanish it'll make you sick!
I'll eat the tacos and the enchilada!
I'll drink Tequila till I feel no pain!
The only song I'll sing will be "Granada"!
I'll be more "español" than Abbe Lane!
Coo coo coo
La cuc.........racha
Ssssso
Call me the wild Spanish rose!
The craziest flower that grows
I'll kick up my heels and see
How it feels to be sultry Spanish rose
Olé!
Behind my mantilla I will pose
The beauty that nobody knows!
So regal and cool, exciting and cruel,
That's me! Spanish rose
(My name Rosita Hernandez!)
(You'll buy my "tortilla"!)
(You like me, yes? No? Maybe? "Eeyuckh!")
"Americano" let me give you a bit of advice
To cross Spanish do not twice
Your match you have found
So don't mess around
Her heart is cold as ice!
With Albert I will dance to the bolero
We'll cha cha in the nicest honky tonks
Hell wear a little mustache and sombrero
My handsome Latin lover from the Bronx
So now that you've met Spanish rose
Never forget Spanish rose
Shell taunt you,
Shell tame you but what man can blame you
For worshiping Spanish rose.
Not Danish
Not British
Not Swedish
Not Yiddish
But span............................ish
Rosa!

Oh Heather honey
Warm as the sunshine
Oh Heather honey
Your love is so fine
I've been here, I've been there
I've been all around
and I fell in and out of love
In most every town
But the girls I knew were not like you
You're a different kind
Heather honey, now can't you see
You're blowing my mind
Every day my friends say
I'm just a fool to fall in love
To them it seems ain't very cool
But I don't care what they say
I just can't resist
Heather, I fell head over heels
First time we kissed
Heather, honey I bet money
We'll never split 'cause
Loving you is so easy to do
And I'll never quit
So build your plans around this man
'Cause I love you so
Don't you forget my pretty pet
I'll never let you go

Only in the USA

Listen To Your Heartbeat
Listen To Your Heartbeat
Composer(s): Thomas G:so - Henrik Sethsson
First performance by: Friends - 2001
I wanna know what you feel inside
Is something wrong? Why did you leave last night?
Is it all just a game? – Oh... tell me why we can't be lovers
I do believe in the two of us
That you and me – we are the only ones
And we were meant to be true, so tell me why we can't be lovers
How could I be such a fool
I thought I already knew it all, but I know
I was totally wrong
Listen to your heartbeat – it will take you higher
Follow your emotions – I know you'll get stronger
Listen to your heartbeat – the feeling will guide you
Hold on to devotion – I know it's inside you
How will I know if you're fooling me?
Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to be
Like it's all just a game, and I just want us to be lovers
We had it all in our hands
Just like those all happy ends
I still don't know why, but we lost it somehow
Listen to your heartbeat – it will take you higher
Follow your emotions – I know you'll get stronger
Listen to your heartbeat – the feeling will guide you
Hold on to devotion – I know it's inside you
One more chance to make a try
Nothing left to do for you and I
Listen to your heartbeat – it will take you higher
Follow your emotions – I know you'll get stronger
Listen to your heartbeat – the feeling will guide you
Hold on to devotion – I know it's inside you
Listen to your heartbeat

Heather
Heather
Composer(s): Paul Vance; Lee Pockriss
Performer(s): The Cuff Links
Heather ties her hair with golden daffodils
And her eyes reflect the sunshine of the sea
Heather smiles and tells me that she's feeling fine
But Heather's silent tears are always crying
Heather wears a straw white hat upon her head
Ties a satin ribbon underneath her chin
Climbs a purple mountain somewhere in her mind
And finds her shadow near a river crying
Heather come to me, don't cry, don't run away
Together there's tomorrow but alone there's only yesterday
Heather come to me, don't cry, just take my hand
Love will be the answer to the loneliness we cannot understand
Heather smile and then I'll find a rainbow ring
I'll tie it to your finger with a golden string
Promising forever that my love will bring
The sunshine in the morning when I wake you
Heather come to me, Heather don't you know
The happy place you're searching for is in my heart
I love you so
Heather, Heather
Heather ... I love you so
