Havin' Myself A Time
Havin' Myself A Time
Composer(s): Leo Robin; Ralph Rainger
Performer(s): Billie Holiday;
and various other artists
I'm havin' myself a time
I mean I'm havin' what I want
Wantin' what I have
Doin' what I like and likin' what I do and I'm
Havin' myself a time
I never could save a dime
And so I'm livin' like a lord
Actin' like a loon
Lyin' in the sun and sighin' in the moon and I'm
Havin' myself a time
When I hum songs
They're all dumb songs without reason or rhyme
But I'm certainly in my prime
I mean I'm happy as a bird
Flyin' up above
Want a little love and get a little love
I'm havin' myself a time

Hell Nep Avenue
Hell Nep Avenue
Composer(s): Francis Cabrel
Performer(s): Francis Cabrel
Comme j'arrivais la tête en vrac
Entre ma guitare et mon sac
J'entends, malheureux ne bougez plus
Ne bougez plus
Le prochain pas que vous allez faire
Peut vous mener droit en enfer
Personne ne vous a prévenu
Vous êtes sur Hell nep Avenue
Boulevard des papiers qui s'envolent
Le vent y descend droit du pôle
Ça fait des chansons de travers, de travers
Chanteurs aux épaules tombantes
Pris dans les fougères grimpantes
Encore une averse de plus
Sur Hell nep Avenue
Quelques mesures de silence
À l'heure où l'autobus s'avance
Aucune fille n'en descend, et le blues reprend
On peut voir se creuser les rides
De ceux qui attendent dans le vide
Il n'y a pas de ciel par-dessus
La Hell nep Avenue
Personne ne vous a prévenu
À cette heure-ci elle viendra plus
Il n'y a pas de ciel par-dessus
La Hell nep Avenue
Avenue du blues, boulevard de personne
On y a vu trainer Robert Johnson
Jusqu'au matin grattant la misère, la misère
Il reste un carré de pelouse
Où quelques silhouettes jalouses
Viennent pour fleurir la statue
Vous êtes sur Hell nep Avenue
Tendresse pendue aux pupitres
Rue des fenêtres sans vitres
Combien d'amoureux étendus, étendus
On y a tous chanté une fois
Une fois et puis t'oublies plus
La hell nep Avenue...
Combien d'amoureux étendus
Tellement, tellement de silhouettes perdues
Encore une averse de plus sur la Hell nep Avenue
Personne ne vous a prévenu
À cette heure-ci elle viendra plus
Il n'y a pas de ciel par-dessus la Hell nep Avenue...

Haven't You Heard
Composer(s): Dale Siegenthaler
Performer(s): Porter Wagoner
Haven't you heard there's a new love for me
Haven't you heard you're just my used to be
She held out her hand, said "Haven't you heard"
I saw a gold wedding band, I was lost for words
I wanted to cry I wanted to die
When she said these words ("Oh, haven't you heard*)
Haven't you heard there's a new love for me
Haven't you heard you're just my used to be
She pulled back her hand, I wanted to cry
It was all I could stand to see her wavin' goodbye
I wanted to cry I wanted to die
When she said these words ("Oh, haven't you heard")
When she said these words "Oh, haven't you heard"

Op een mistig koude augustusavond liep ik doelloos langs
witgekalkte huisjes van het Lierse Begijnhof. In de grauwe
stilte weerklonk plots het troosteloos geweeklaag van een
eenzaam meisje
da’s kwezel Eufrazie van Doemmele
van het Begijnenhof in Lier
sinds heure vent stierf van ‘t boemmele
is ‘t menske hiêl diên tijd al hier
ze zit al jare in heur huiske
ze denkt er dikwijls on ne vent
alleen gon slape mè e kruiske
is ze nog altijd ni gewend
Eufrazie van Doemmele
we wete goe wa da ge mist
Eufrazie van Doemmele
wa denkte van ne goeien twist
ik kan ni twiste, ik mag ni twiste
twiste is onze regel ni
begijntjes en kwezelkes twisten ni
van diên moment sliep Eufrazieke
giênen enkelen nacht gerust
ze droomt dat ze bij ieder lieke
door Chubby Checker wordt gekust
na leert ze twiste veur ne spiegel
veur ‘n begijn is da gewaagd
al weurd ze mottig van ‘t gewiegel
ze wacht totdat er iemand vraagt
Eufrazie van Doemmele
we wete wa gij hèt gemist
Eufrazie van Doemmele
wa denkte van ne goeien twist
ik kan goe twiste, ik mag wel twiste
twiste is onze regel wel
begijntjes en kwezelkes twisten wel
come on man, let’s twist again

Hell Is For Children
Hell Is For Children
Composer(s): Pat Benatar; Roger Capps; Neil Giraldo
Performer(s): Pat Benatar; Rosemary's Billygoat
They cry in dark
so you can't see their tears
They hide in the light
so you can't see their fears
Forgive and forget
all the while...
Love and pain become one and the same
in the eyes of a wounded child
Because--hell, hell is for children!
And you know that their little lives can become such a mess
Hell--hell is for children
and you shouldn't have to pay for your love
with your bones and your flesh...
It's all so confusing
this brutal abusing...
They blacken your eyes
and then apologize...
"Be daddy's good girl
and don't tell mommy a thing"...
"Be a good little boy
and you'll get a new toy
tell grandma you fell from the swing"
Because--hell, hell is for children!
And you know that their little lives can become such a mess
Hell--hell is for children
and you shouldn't have to pay for your love
with your bones and your flesh...

Haven't You Heard
Composer(s): Red Lane; Wayne Kemp
Performer(s): George Strait
Haven't you heard, Daddy's gone crazy
Haven't you heard, Momma is gone
Here I stand with my finger on his door bell
My mind goes back to what I did last night
You see I finally talked his wife into leavin' him
And I'm just here to convince my conscience that it's alright
Well I can see my ole friend sittin' there just starin'
And his little boy's cryin' words that are welded in my mind
Haven't you heard, Daddy's gone crazy
Haven't you heard, Momma is gone
And either way I am a loser
And I've been cryin' all night long
Mister, haven't you heard
Haven't you heard, Daddy's gone crazy
Haven't you heard, Momma is gone
And either way I am a loser
And I've been cryin' all night long
Mister, haven't you heard

Ritorna a casa Speedy Gonzales
devi lasciare quel bar
e devi smettere di bere
per scordarti di me
Tu m'hai lasciata sola in casa
tu m'hai lasciato perchè
ho tanto freddo e sono sola
e il tetto lacrima per me
Speedy Gonzales ritorna da me
Speedy Gonzales non lasciarmi mai più
Nascondi il viso col sombrero
e ti vergogni perchè
hai sulle labbra un'altro bacio
mai baciato da me
Se torni incontro alle mie braccia
io ti perdono perchè
berremmo insieme una tequila
e brinderemo al nostro amor
Speedy Gonzales ritorna da me
Speedy Gonzales non lasciarmi mai più
Speedy Gonzales why don't you come home
Speedy Gonzales don't you leave me alone

Hell In A Bucket
Hell In A Bucket
Composer(s): John Perry Barlow; Bob Weir
Performer(s): Grateful Dead; Bob Weir
Well, I was drinking last night with a biker
And I showed him a picture of you
I said, "Pal, get to know her
You'll like her"
Seemed like the least I could do...
'Cause when he's driving his chopper
Up and down your carpeted halls
You will think me by contrast quite proper
Never mind how I stumble and fall
Never mind how I stumble and fall
Chorus:
You imagine me sipping champagne from your boot
For a taste of your elegant pride
I may be going to hell in a bucket, babe
But at least I'm enjoying the ride
At least I'm enjoying the ride
At least I'm enjoying the ride
Now miss sweet little soft-core pretender
Somehow baby got hard as it gets
With her black leather chrome spiked suspenders
Her chair and her whip and her pets
Well we know you're the reincarnation
Of the ravenous Catherine the Great
And we know how you love your ovations
For the Z-rated scenes you create
The Z-rated scenes you create
You analyze me, pretend to despise me
You laugh when I stumble and fall
There may come a day I will dance on your grave
If unable to dance, I will crawl across it
Unable to dance, I'll still crawl
You must really consider the circus
'Cause it just might be your kind of zoo
I can't think of a place that's more perfect
For a person as perfect as you
And it's not like I'm leaving you lonely
'Cause I wouldn't know where to begin
But I know that you'll think of me only
When the snakes come marching in
When the snakes come marching in

Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing In The Shadow?
Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing In The Shadow?
Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards
Performer(s): The Rolling Stones
Have you seen your mother, baby, standing in the shadow?
Have you had another, baby, standing in the shadow?
I'm glad I opened your eyes
The have-nots would have tried to freeze you in ice
Have you seen your brother, baby, standing in the shadow?
Have you had another baby, standing in the shadow?
I was just passing the time
I'm all alone, won't you give all your sympathy to mine?
Tell me a story about how you adore me
Live in the shadow, see through the shadow,
Live through the shadow, tear at the shadow
Hate in the shadow, and love in your shadowy life
Have you seen your lover, baby, standing in the shadow?
Has he had another baby, standing in the shadow?
Baby, where have you been all your life?
Talking about all the people who should try anything twice
Have you seen your mother, baby, standing in the shadow?
Have you had another baby, standing in the shadow?
You take your choice at this time
The brave old world or the slide to the depths of decline

Everything I Want
Everything I Want
Composer(s): Milana Vlaovic
First performance by: Vesna Pisarovic - 2002
Since you came into my life, I've been touched by happiness
I feel love is all around 'cause there is no more loneliness
And there's one thing that is true
You should know how much I love you
Love is everything I want, love is everything I need
Thinking of the day we met as sign of destiny
Love is everything I want, I believe in you and me
Let me show you what I feel because my love is real
The girl I was, I left behind, incomplete and insecure
Now I got you on my mind and I feel like I've been cured
And there's one thing that is true
You should know how much I love you
Love is everything I want, love is everything I need
Thinking of the day we met as sign of destiny
Love is everything I want, I believe in you and me
Let me show you what I feel because my love is real
(Ah... ah... ah...) Whoa...
(Love is everything I want, love is everything I need)
(Thinking of the day we met as sign of destiny)
Love is everything I want, I believe in you and me
Let me show you what I feel because my love is real
(Love is everything I want, love is everything I need)
(Thinking of the day we met as sign of destiny) Thinking of the day
(Love is everything I want, I believe in you and me)
(Let me show you what I feel) because my love is real
Because my love is real

He'll Have To Go
He'll Have To Go
Composer(s): Audrey Allison; Joe Allison
Performer(s): Jim Reeves
Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Let´s pretend that we´re together all alone
I´ll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low
And you can tell your friend there with you he´ll have to go
Whisper to me tell me do you love me true?
Or is he holding you the way I do?
Though love is blind, make up your mind
I´ve got to know
Should I hang up or will you tell him he´ll have to go
You can´t say the words I want to hear while you´re with another man
If you want me answer "Yes" or "No" darling I will understand
Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Let´s pretend that we´re together all alone
I´ll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low
And you can tell your friend there with you he´ll have to go

Seul sur le sable les yeux dans l'eau
Mon rêve était trop beau
L'été qui s'achève tu partiras
A cent mille lieux de moi
Comment oublier ton sourire
Et tellement de souvenirs
Nos jeux dans les vagues près du quai
Je n'ai vu le temps passer
L'amour sur la plage désertée
Nos corps brûlés enlacés
Comment t'aimer si tu t'en vas
Dans ton pays loin là-bas oua oua
Hélène things you do make me crazy bout you
Pourquoi tu pars reste ici j'ai tant besoin d'une amie
Hélène things you do make me crazy bout you
Pourquoi tu pars si loin de moi
La ou le vent te porte loin de mon cœur qui bat
Hélène things you do make me crazy bout you
Pourquoi tu pars reste ici reste encore juste une nuit
Seul sur le sable les yeux dans l'eau
Mon rêve était trop beau
L'été qui s'achève tu partiras
A cent mille lieux de moi
Comment t'aimer si tu t'en vas
Dans ton pays loin là-bas
Dans ton pays loin là-bas oua oua oua da ba da
Dans ton pays loin de moi

Have You Seen Her?
Have You Seen Her?
Composer(s): Barbara Acklin; Eugene Record
Performer(s): The Chi-Lites
One month ago today
I was happy as a lark
But now I go for walks
To the movies - maybe to the park
And have a seat on the same old bench
To watch the children play (huh)
You know, tomorrow is their future
But to me, just another day
They all gather around me
They seem to know my name
We laugh, tell a few jokes
But it still doesn´t ease my pain
I know I can´t hide from a memory
´Though day after day I´ve tried
I keep sayin´ she´ll be back
But today again I lied
Verse 1:
Oh, I see her face everywhere I go
On the street, and even at the picture show
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?
Verse 2:
Oh, I hear her voice as the cold winds blow
In the sweet music on my radio
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?
Why, oh, why
Did she have to leave and go away [2: oh, yeah]
Oh-oh-oh, I´ve been used to havin´ someone to lean on
And I´m lost
Baby, I´m lost (Oh)
Verse 3:
Oh, she left her kiss upon my lips
But left that break within my heart
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?
Verse 4:
Oh, I see her hand reaching out to me
Only she can set me free
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?
(spoken over 2nd and 3rd repeats):
As another day comes to an end
I´m lookin´ for a letter or somethin´
Anything that she would send
With all the people I know
I´m still a lonely man
You know, it´s funny
I thought I had her in the palm of my hand
repeat:
Have you seen her
Tell me, have you seen her (tell me, have you seen her?)
