First release by: Prince's Band - 1916
Covered by multiple other artists
I hate to see de ev'nin' sun go down
I hate to see de ev'nin' sun go down
'cause ma baby, he done lef' dis town
Feelin' tomorrow lak ah feel today,
feel tomorrow lak ah feel today
I'll pack my trunk, make ma git away
Saint Louis woman wid her diamon' rings
pulls dat man 'roun' by her apron strings
'Twant for powder an' for store-bought hair
de man ah love would not gone nowhere, nowhere
Got de Saint Louis Blues jes as blue as ah can be
Dat man got a heart lak a rock cast in the sea
Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me
Doggone it!
I loves day man lak a schoolboy loves his pie
lak a Kentucky Col'nel loves his mint an' rye
I'll love ma baby till the day ah die
Been to de gypsy to get ma fortune tole
to de gypsy, done got ma fortune tole
cause I'm most wile 'bout ma Jelly Roll
Gypsy done tole me, "Don't you wear no black"
Yes, she done told me, "Don't you wear no black
Go to Saint Louis, you can win him back"
Help me to Cairo, make Saint Louis by maself
Git to Cairo, find ma old friend Jeff
gwine to pin maself close to his side
if ah flag his train, I sho' can ride
Got de Saint Louis Blues jes as blue as ah can be
Dat man got a heart lak a rock cast in the sea
Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me
Doggone it!
I loves day man lak a schoolboy loves his pie
lak a Kentucky Col'nel loves his mint an' rye
I'll love ma baby till the day ah die
You ought to see dat stovepipe brown of mine
lak he owns de Dimon' Joseph line
he'd make a cross-eyed o'man go stone blin'
Blacker than midnight, teeth lak flags of truce
blackest man in de whole of Saint Louis
blacker de berry, sweeter am de juice
About a crap game, he knows a pow'ful lot
but when worktime comes, he's on de dot
Gwine to ask him for a cold ten-spot
what it takes to git it, he's cert'nly got
Got de Saint Louis Blues jes as blue as ah can be
Dat man got a heart lak a rock cast in the sea
Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me
Doggone it!
I loves day man lak a schoolboy loves his pie
lak a Kentucky Col'nel loves his mint an' rye
I'll love ma baby till the day ah die
Extra choruses:
A black-headed gal makes a freight train jump the track
said a black-headed gal makes a freight train jump the track
But a long tall gal makes a preacher ball the jack
Lawd, a blonde-headed woman makes a good man leave the town
I said blonde-headed woman makes a good man leave the town
But a red-headed woman makes a boy slap his papa down
Oh, ashes to ashes and dust to dust, I said ashes to ashes and dust to dust
if my blues don't get you, my jazzing must

Here Till Here Is There
Here Till Here Is There
Composer(s): Robin Williamson
Performer(s): The Incredible Stringband
Where will you go
When days grow short and winds grow cold
And green leaves are shaken
There was a road as once I saw
Wound with bright ivies and trumpeting haws
Of whitest sand embroidered with flowers
That very few has taken
Where will you stay
While rivers run and days eat days
And white stars are pining
In hopes more true in hearts more gay
In love that is stronger and brighter than day
In hands that heal in thoughts that play
In all eyes shining
Why do we talk of go and stay?
We will all be here till here is there!

Stronger Every Minute
Stronger Every Minute
Composer(s): Mike Connaris
First performance by: Lisa Andreas - 2004
No matter where I am
I'm always thinking of you
It may be hard, but I need you to understand
That I don't often say what I feel
But now this is straight from my heart
My love grows stronger every minute
And it won't ever die
I want you to stay with me
Not just this day, but for all my life
Now, when I look into your eyes
I can tell there's something wrong
You're holding back the tears
Couldn't bare to lose you now
So I will make my feelings clear
My love grows stronger every minute
And it won't ever die
You must believe I'll always be there
For you, all my life
Oh... please stay
Mmm...
My love grows stronger every minute
And it won't ever die
I want you to stay with me
Not just this day, but for all my life
Oh... please stay

Here She Comes Now
Here She Comes Now
Composer(s): John Cale; Sterling Morrison;
Lou Reed; Maureen Tucker
Performer(s): The Velvet Underground;
and various other artists
Here she comes now
Gone gone gone
Ready ready ready
Got my eyes wide open
Ever since I was on cripples Monday
Got my eyeballs on my knees
After hours with mad Mary Williams
She never understood a word from me
I know that she cares about me
I heard her call my name
And I know she's long dead and gone
Still it ain't the same
When I wake up in the morning
I heard her call my name
I know she's dead and gone
I heard her call my name
And I felt my mind split open

(Italian Version: Piccolino - 1973)
Composer(s): Paul Simon
First release by: Paul Simon - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists
Little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is?
Well the hour of your bedtime’s
Long been past
And though I know you’re fighting it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
You’re fading fast
Fading fast
Won’t you run come see St. Judy’s Comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds
In its wake
I long to see St. Judy’s Comet
Sparkle in your eyes
When you awake
Little boy
Won’t you lay your body down
Little boy
Won’t you close your weary eyes
Ain’t nothing flashing but the fireflies
Well I sang it once
And I sang it twice
I’m going to sing it three times more
Going to stay ‘til your resistance
Is overcome
‘Cause if I can’t sing my boy to sleep
well it makes your famous daddy
look so dumb
Won’t you run come see St. Judy’s Comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds
In its wake
I long to see St. Judy’s Comet
Sparkle in your eyes
When you awake
Little boy, little boy
Won’t you lay your body down
Little boy, little boy
Won’t you close your weary eyes
Ain’t nothing flashing but the fireflies
Oo Little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is?
Well the hour of your bedtime’s
Long been past
Though I know you’re fighting it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
That you’re fading fast

Xote Das Meninas
Xote Das Meninas
Composer(s): Zé Dantas - Luiz Gonzaga
Performer(s): Marco Pereira; Hamilton de Holanda
Mandacaru, quando flora
Na seca
É o sinal que a chuva chega no
Sertão
Toda menina que enjoa da
Boneca
É sinal que o amor
Já chegou no coração
Meia comprida, não quer mais
Sapato baixo
Vestido bem cintado
Não quer mais vestir timão
Ela só quer, só pensa em
Namorar
Ela só quer, só pensa em
Namorar
De manhã cedo já tá pintada
Só vive suspirando
Sonhando acordada
O pai leva ao doutô
A filha adoentada
Não come nem estuda,
Não dorme, não quer nada
Ela só quer, só pensa em
Namorar
Ela só quer, só pensa em
Namorar
Mas o doutô nem examina
Chamando o pai de lado
Lhe diz logo em surdina
Que o mal é da idade
Que pra tal menina
Não há um só remédio
Em toda medicina
Ela só quer, só pensa em
Namorar
Ela só quer, só pensa em
Namorar

Hold On To Our Love
Hold On To Our Love
Composer(s): Gary Miller - Tim Woodcock
First performance by: James Fox - 2004
Maybe I've been foolish letting you down
I've been a little selfish not being around
But if I lost you, I'd be helpless inside
Gotta hold on to our love tonight
'Cause now that I've found that someone I believe in
And I feel so complete by your side
It's the only time I've ever loved somebody, baby, in my life
We gotta hold on to our love tonight
I know that you've been hurting
The pain's in your eyes
I promise you I'm changing, I feel it inside
I don't know what I would do if it all passes by
We gotta hold on to our love tonight
'Cause now that I've found that someone I believe in
And I feel so complete by your side
It's the only time I've ever loved somebody, baby, in my life
We gotta hold on to our love tonight
Some things in life we should treasure
When you find love, never let it go
Because now I realise and I want you to know
'Cause now that I've found that someone I believe in
And I feel so complete by your side
It's the only time I've ever loved somebody, baby, in my life
We gotta hold on to our love tonight
'Cause now that I've found that someone I believe in
And I feel so complete by your side
It's the only time I've ever loved somebody, baby, in my life
We gotta hold on to our love tonight
We gotta hold on to our love tonight

X-Offender
X-Offender
Composer(s): Debbie Harry - Gary Valentine
First release by: Blondie - 1976
Covered by multiple other artists
I saw you standing on the corner, you looked so big and fine
I really wanted to go out with you, so when you smiled
I laid my heart on the line
You read me my rights and then you said "Let's go" and nothing more
I thought of my nights, and how they were
They were filled with
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
We sat in the night with my hands cuffed at my side
I look at your life and your style
I wanted nothing more
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
Walking the line, you were a marksman
Told me that law, like wine, is ageless
Public defender
You had to admit
You wanted the love of a sex offender
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
My vision in blue, I call you from inside my cell
And in the trial, you were there
With your badge and rubber boots
I think all the time how I'm going to perpetrate love with you
And when I get out, there's no doubt I'll be sex offensive to you

Performer(s): Louis Armstrong & His Savoy Ballroom Five - 1928/1929
and multiple other artists
I went down to the St. James Infirmary
Saw my baby there
She stretched out on a long white table
So sweet, so cold, so fair
Let her go, let her go, God bless her
Wherever she may be
She can look this wide world over
But she'll never find a sweet man like me
When I die want you to dress me in straight lace shoes
I wanna a boxback coat and a Stetson hat
Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain
So the boys'll know that I died standing flat

Performer(s): Botones - 1980
Aquí jamás se ha acostado el sol
Y el tiempo da marcha atrás
Viviendo en Xanadú
Aquí podrás bailar sobre el mar
Llueve y jamás te mojas
Viviendo en Xanadú
Los trenes vuelan como los pájaros, es mágico
Nadan las piedras, bailan las máquinas fantásticas
Xanadú, Xanadú
Quédate aquí en Xanadú
Xanadú, Xanadú
Quédate aquí en Xanadú
Dime tú si has visto un sitio así como Xanadu
Aquí las calles son de cristal
Y el viento baila en patines
Viviendo en Xanadú
Aquí no se necesita hablar
Aqui todo se comprende
Viviendo en Xanadu
Los coches nunca llevan matrículas ridículas
Y las hormigas tocan su armónica minúscula
Xanadú, Xanadú
Quédate aquí en Xanadú
Xanadú, Xanadú
Quédate aquí en Xanadú
Quédate aquí
Serás feliz en Xanadú
Quédate aquí
Serás feliz en Xanadú

A place where nobody dared to go
The love that we came to know
They call it Xanadu
And now, open your eyes and see
What we have made is real
We are in Xanadu
A million lights are dancing and there you are
A shooting star
An everlasting world and you're here with me
Eternally
Xanadu, Xanadu, (now we are here) in Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu, (now we are here) in Xanadu
Xanadu, your neon lights will shine for you, Xanadu
The love, the echoes of long ago
You needed the world to know
They are in Xanadu
The dream that came through a million years
That lived on through all the tears
It came to Xanadu
A million lights are dancing and there you are
A shooting star
An everlasting world and you're here with me
Eternally
Xanadu, Xanadu, (now we are here) in Xanadu

When You Are Old And Gray
When You Are Old And Gray
Composer(s): Tom Lehrer
Performer(s): Tom Lehrer
Since I still appreciate you let's find love while we may
because I know I'll hate you when you are old and gray
So say you love me here and now, I'll make the most of that
Say you love and trust me for I know you'll disgust me
when you're old and getting fat
An awful debility a lessened utility a loss of mobility is a strong possibility
In all probability I'll lose my virility and you your fertility and desirability
And this liability of total sterility will lead to hostility and sense of futility
So let's act with agility while we still have facility
for we'll soon reach senility and lose the ability
Your teeth will start to go dear, your waist will start to spread
in twenty years of so dear I'll wish that you were dead
I'll never love you then at all the way I do today
So please remember when I leave in December
I told you so in May

When I see that girl go walking by
I know a boy shouldn't cry
Here it comes again, that feeling

No matter how I try
Here it comes again, that feeling
Here it comes again
I find I'm cry-y-y-y-in over you
I know it's nothing to do-o-o-o-
Now I'm on my own, I walk alone
A heart without a home
Here it comes again, that feeling
Here it comes again
When love walked out a fire went out inside of me
It wouldn't hide those tears inside of me
Then there's nothing left for me to say
You no, you no, you no you broke my heart
Here it comes again, that feeling
Here it comes again
I find I'm cry-y-y-y-in over you
I know it's nothing to do-o-o-o-
I know it's not the thing to do
Now I'm on my own, I walk alone
A heart without a home

Version In Other Languages:
1973 - Kärlekssång (by Sylvia Vrethammar)
1976 - Canción De Amor (by Miguel Gallardo)
The words I have to say
May well be simple but they're true
Until you give your love
There's nothing more that we can do
Love is the opening door
Love is what we came here for
No-one could offer you more
Do you know what I mean
Have your eyes really seen
You say it's very hard
To leave behind the life we knew
But there's no other way
And now it's really up to you
Love is the key we must turn
Truth is the flame we must burn
Freedom the lesson we must learn
Do you know what I mean?
Have your eyes really seen?

Here is my heart you can take it
There's a time in your life for believing
That impossible dream in your heart
When you find in one magical moment
The one you search for from the start
On a night like tonight when you're holding me
I can see in your eyes it's you I've dreamed of
Here is my heart you can take it
Love so strong, can't be wrong
Here is my heart please don't break it
Come what may, here I'll stay
Here is my heart, only for you
If I gave you the keys of a kingdom
If I dressed you in diamonds and pearls
It could never compare to the feeling
We have together, right now
On a night like tonight, you're everything
For once in my life it feels like heaven
Here is my heart you can take it
Love so strong, can't be wrong
Here is my heart please don't break it
Come what may, here I'll stay
Here is my heart, only for you
Here is my heart, now and forever yours
Making love under the stars
Paradise is where we are
Living it up will never stop
Dancing together
Round and round and round we go
Feel the rhythm in your soul
Nothing is going to stop us
When we're dancing together
All night long, forever
Here is my heart you can take it
Here is my heart please don't break it
Here is my heart you can take it
Love so strong, can't be wrong
Here is my heart please don't break it
Come what may, here I'll stay
Here is my heart
Here is my heart come on and take it
Come on and take it
Please don't break it, don't break it girl
