A Little Bit Of Cucumber
A Little Bit Of Cucumber
Composer(s): T.W. Connor
Performer(s): Harry Champion
I was weaned on cucumber
And on my wedding day
Sitting down to supper when
The guests had gone away
My old darling said to me
"You must be hungry, Joe!
What is it you fancy?" I
Said, "Fancy! Don't you know?"
I went flying in the air
With my old college chum
Suddenly he said to me
"We're bound for kingdom come!
Is there anything on your mind
Before you wear a crown?"
I began to shake and said
"Write this confession down
To the Lord Mayor's Banquet I
Got in one foggy day
When I saw the grub it took
My appetite away
"Sparrowgrass" and chaffinches
And pigs-head stuffed with jam!
I said to the waiter there
"You don't know who I am!"
Sev'ral years of married life
Have brought me lots of joys
I don't know how many girls
I think it's fourteen boys
When the last one came to town
It nearly turned my head
It was marked with a cucumber
And the fust words that it said
Were:
"I like pickled onions
I like piccalilli
Pickled cabbage is alright
With a bit of cold meat on Sunday night
I can go termartoes
But what I do prefer
Is a little bit of cu-cum-cu-cum-cu-cum
Little bit of cucumber"

Horsey, Keep Your Tail Up
Horsey, Keep Your Tail Up
Composer(s): Walter Hirsch; Bert Kaplan
Performer(s): Spike Jones
Horsey, keep your tail up
Horsey, keep your tail up
Keep the sun out of my eyes
Horsey, keep your tail up
Horsey, keep your tail up
Never mind about the flies
His mane is long and his hair is thick
He's really got an awful kick
Horsey, keep your tail up
Horsey, keep your tail up
Keep the sun out of my eyes
Horsey, keep your tail up
Horsey, keep your tail up
Keep the sun out of my eyes
Horsey, keep your tail up
Horsey, keep your tail up
Never mind about the flies
Now if you want to look real smart
Just raise your tail before you start
Horsey, keep your tail up
Horsey, keep your tail up
Keep the sun out of my eyes

A Little Bit More
A Little Bit More
((Danish Version: Endnu En Gang (by Bamse) - 1977))
Composer(s): Bobby Gosh
First release by: Bobby Gosh - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists
When your body's had enough of me
And I'm layin' flat out on the floor
When you think I've loved you all I can
I'm gonna love you a little bit more
Come on over here and lay by my side
I've got to be touchin' you
Let me rub your tired shoulders
The way I used to do
Look into my eyes and give me that smile
The one that always turns me on
And let me take your hair down
`Cause we're stayin' up to greet the sun
And when your body's had enough of me
And I'm laying flat out on the floor
When you think I've loved you all I can
I'm gonna love you a little bit more
Got to say a few things that have been on my mind
And you know where my mind has been
I guess I learned my lessons
And now's the time to begin
So if you're feelin' alright and you're ready for me
I know that I'm ready for you
We better get it on now
`Cause we got our whole life to live through
And when your body's had enough of me
And I'm layin' flat out on the floor
When you think I've loved you all I can
I'm gonna love you a little bit more
And when your body's had enough of me
And I'm layin' flat out on the floor
When you think I've loved you all I can
I'm gonna love you a little bit more

Horizonte De Las Estrellas
Composer(s): E. Aldrighetti; O. Avogadro; R. Battaglia;
Miguel Bosé; Roberto Colombo; M. Schiappadori
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
Horizonte de las estrellas
es el limite que me vuelve loco
cuantas son, como son de bellas
por mi amor yo no fui quien las ha roto
Eres tan pálida, que blanca estas
siempre radiante, en quien pensarás
como estas, como estas
como estas...
Horizonte de las estrellas
el infante ya duerme en la cuna
si pudiese ser una de ellas
le daría belleza y fortuna
Eres tan pálida, que blanca estas
tibia acuarela, espuma del mar
como estas, como estas
como estas...
Eres tan pálida, que blanca estas
eclipsadisima quien te amará
como va
soy prisionero del tiempo que va
un pasajero de la eternidad
como va como va
como va...
horizonte de las estrellas

Don't know just what I said wrong
But, girl, I apologize
Don't go, here's where you belong
So wipe the tears from your eyes
Girl, I don't want to fight
I'm a little bit wrong, you're a little bit right

Please, don't go
Please, don't go ...

Horizontalement
Horizontalement
Composer(s): Roland Valade
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat
Verticalement
Tu n'es pas une affaire
Je sais bien
Mais horizontalement
C'est toi que je préfère
Et de loin
Je m'sens le plus triste
Des cruciverbistes
Car je suis
Derrière une grille
Seul où toi ma fille
Tu m'as mis
Pour trouver ta définition
Je n'ai pas trente-six solutions
Belle comme l'amour futée comme un balai
Tu es la source de tous mes mots croisés
Verticalement
Tu n'es pas une affaire
Je sais bien
Mais horizontalement
C'est toi que je préfère
Et de loin
Après les extases
Tu as quelques cases
Mal remplies
En libertinage
Tu as pour ton âge
Du génie
En cinq lettres sur mon journal
On demande au trois vertical
Un mal qui peut se dissiper la nuit
En pensant à toi j'ai trouvé l'ennui
Verticalement
Tu n'es pas une affaire
Je sais bien
Mais horizontalement
C'est toi que je préfère
Et de loin
Pourquoi dans nos phrases
Tous nos mots se croisent
Pleins d'aigreur
Idiots que nous sommes
Puisque la nuit gomme
Nos erreurs
Au fond de notre carrée noire
M'arrive une lueur d'espoir
Alors j'oublie ce qui m'obsède chez toi
Qui n'as pas inventé l'eau tiède crois-moi
Verticalement
Tu n'es pas une affaire
Je sais bien
Mais horizontalement
C'est toi que je préfère
Et de loin
Mais horizontalement
C'est toi que je préfère
Et de loin
Mais horizontalement
C'est toi que je préfère
Et de loin

A Little Bit Is Better Than Nada
A Little Bit Is Better Than Nada
Composer(s): Doug Sahm
Performer(s): Texas Tornados; Biff Moss
Met her in a border town
We proceeded to get down
She turned me on
I dropped the telephone
Moonlight hits the Rio Grande
And the touch of her hand
It makes me high
Like the Fourth of July
The bad bandito came into town
But man I'm gonna hunt that gringo down
But these words keep ringin' in my ear
A little bit is better than nada
Sometime you want the whole enchilada
A little bit is better than nada
A little bit or nothing at all
Said Cancun was not her style
Touristas there, they drove her wild
The border's the place
Put on a brand new face
Me and the boys are just in town
To shake 'em up and mow 'em down
I guess it was fate
I hope I wasn't too late
Bad bad boys was on our trail
Federales threw us all in jail
But these words keep ringin' in my ear
A little bit is better than nada
Sometime you want the whole enchilada
A little bit is better than nada
A little bit or nothing at all
A little bit is better than nada
Sometime you want the whole enchilada
A little bit is better than nada
A little bit or nothing at all
A little bit is better than nada
Sometime you want the whole enchilada
A little bit is better than nada
A little bit or nothing at all
A little bit is better than nada
Sometime you want the whole enchilada
A little bit is better than nada
A little bit or nothing at all

Oh, you hop a little on your little left shoe
You hop a little on your right one too
You kick a button like the Scotch kids do

Oh, you hop a little on your little left shoe
You hop a little on your right one too
You don't mind boucin' like a kangaroo
To the Hop Scotch Polka
It's in and out among the maple trees
It's up and down and then you wave your knees
Your head goes boppin' in the morning breeze
To the Hop Scotch Polka
Oh, you hop a little on your little left shoe
You hop a little on your right one too
You kick a button like the Scotch kids do
That's the Hop Scotch Polka
Oh, you hop a little on your little left shoe
You hop a little on your right one too
You kick a button like the Scotch kids do
That's the Hop Scotch Polka
Hop, hop, hop-pity
Hip, hip, hip-pity
Hap, hap, happily on your way
Hop, hop, hop-pity
Hip, hip, hip-pity
Hop to the Hop Scotch Polka

A Little Bit Independent
A Little Bit Independent
Composer(s): Joe Burke - Edgar Leslie
Performer(s): Fats Waller
and multiple other artists
A little bit independent in your walk
A little bit independent in your talk
There's nothing like you in Paris or New York
You're awfully easy on the eyes
A little bit independent when we dance
A little bit independent toward romance
A bit of sophistication in your glance
And yet you're easy on the eyes
Whenever I'm with you alone
You weave a magic spell
And though it be a danger zone
I only know that you're swell
A little bit independent with your smile
A little bit independent in your style
But how can I help but love you all the while
When you're so easy on the eyes

Hoppy's Gone
Hoppy's Gone
Composer(s): Larry Henley; Red Lane; Johnny Slate
Performer(s): Roger Miller
Hang it up boys
Yesterdays and dreams and matinees
Like tinker toys they fell apart today
Well almost anyway
Hoppy's gone
Bed em Down, boys
Put your cowboy boots and guns away
The broomstick horse just up and died today
And so did Saturdays
Hoppy's gone
Rock-a-bye yesterday
Winds blow and cradles will fall
And down comes the curtain
And all of a lifetime of mem'ries live on
Hoppy's gone, boys, hoppy's gone
Hang it all up boys
Yesterdays and dreams and matinees
Like tinker toys they came apart today
Best just let it lay
Hoppy's gone
Rock-a-bye yesterday
Winds will blow and cradles will fall

A Little Bit Country, A Little Bit Rock 'N Roll
A Little Bit Country, A Little Bit Rock 'N Roll
Composer(s): Marty Cooper
Performer(s): Donny Osmond
I'm a little bit country
And I'm a little bit rock 'n roll
I'm a little bit of Memphis and Nashville
With a little bit of Motown in my soul
I don't know if it's good or bad
But I know I love it so
I'm a little bit country
And I'm a little bit rock 'n roll
He's a little bit gentle, he's a little bit runnin' wild
She's a little bit of ??? woman, she's a little bit of jive
Don't know if I'm happy or sad
My music makes me whole
I'm a little bit country
And I'm a little bit rock 'n roll
I like that peaceful easy feeling of a laid back country song
And when I sing my rock n' roll, I can sing it all night long
I love my country with all my heart and soul
I go out on Saturday night for a little bit of rock 'n roll
I know if I'm fellin' right
No matter where I go
With little bit of country
And a little bit of rock 'n roll
I like that peaceful easy feeling of a laid back country song
And when I sing my rock n' roll, I can sing it all night long
I love my country with all my heart and soul
I go out on Saturday night for a little bit of rock 'n roll
I know if I'm feelin' right
No matter where I go
With little bit of country
And a little bit of rock 'n roll
We're a little bit country
We're a little bit rock 'n roll

Hop Là Nous Vivons
Hop Là Nous Vivons
Composer(s): Henri Gougaud
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat
Avec nos dents nickelées
Et nos coeurs battant la fête
L'oiseau rouge dans la tête
Les cheveux mal ficelés
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Avec nos rires barbares
Comme des couteaux jetés
Dans le soleil qui nous fait
La peau couleur de guitare
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Sous les buildings de Paris
On chante comme l'orage
Et la liberté fait rage
Dans nos coeurs mal équarris
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Nous sommes quelques millions
Pour qui la vie se dévore
En rêves multicolores
À belles dents de lion
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Nous habitons sur les routes
Qui mènent à l'amour fou
Nous marcherons jusqu'au bout
Jusqu'à en crever sans doute
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Et nous serons tous pareils
Au bout de l'heure dernière
Nous chanterons pour nos frères
Pour un éternel soleil
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons
Hop-là hop-là hop-là nous vivons

A Little Bird Told Me
Composer(s): Harvey Brooks
Performer(s): Paula Watson
and multiple other artists
A little bird told me that you love me
And I believe that you do
This little bird told me I was fallin'
Fallin' for no one but you
There's no use denying
Might as well confess
Of all the boys I know, dear
I'm sure I love you best
The little bird told me we'd be happy
And I believe that it's true
A little bird told me we'd be married
And I believe that it's true
This little bird told me when we marry
We'll have a pretty cottage
Not too far
All fenced in like a movie stars
We'll have a great dane pup
We'll call him Ace
Lying there by the fireplace
A goldfish pond and a wishing well
Everything is gonna turn out swell
A little bird told me we'd be happy
And now I know that it's true
Come June it's bound to be true

Hoping That You're Hoping
Hoping That You’re Hoping
Composer(s): Betty E. Harrison
Performer(s): The Louvin Brothers
Every minute of the day, I’m thinking ‘bout you
And without you life is just a crazy dream
Every breath I take I’m hoping that you’re hoping that I’m hoping
You’ll return to me
Can you remember, dear, when you said
If I ever stopped loving you, you’d rather be dead?
Well, dear, I don’t know what on earth changed your mind
No matter who’s holding you, your heart is still mine
Every time I think about the way you cuddled up and snuggled up
And filled me with your charm
I get dizzy in the head
And then it’s seeming that I’m dreaming
I’m locked in your loving arms
Every minute of the day, I’m thinking ‘bout you
And without you life is just a crazy dream
Every breath I take I’m hoping that you’re hoping that I’m hoping
You’ll return to me
Can you remember, dear, when you said
If I ever stopped loving you, you’d rather be dead?
Well, dear, I don’t know what on earth changed your mind
No matter who’s holding you, your heart is still mine
Every minute of the day, I’m thinking ‘bout you
And without you life is just a crazy dream
Every breath I take I’m hoping that you’re hoping that I’m hoping
You’ll return to me

Empty pockets never stopped
Me from singing a blue streak, no
And I don't think the devil's
Ever gonna give me back

But we still got time to go
Oh I say mama living ain't a luxury

See I was born without a silver spoon But I'm gonna make a stir
Yes I am!
Was vaccinated with a phonograph needle
One summer break; and then I kissed her
On her daddy's boat and shot accross the lake
And was singin' it
Oh I say mama living ain't a luxury

Hopelessly Devoted To You
Composer(s): John Farrar
Performer(s): Olivia Newton-John
Guess mine is not the first heart broken
my eyes are not the first to cry
I'm not the first to know
there's just no gettin' over you
Hello, I'm just a fool who's willing to sit around
and wait for you
But baby can't you see, there's nothin' else for me to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
But now there's nowhere to hide
since you pushed my love aside I'm not in my head
hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
hopelessly devoted to you
My head is saying "fool, forget him"
my heart is saying "don't let go"
Hold on to the end, that's what I intend to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
But now there's nowhere to hide
since you pushed my love aside I'm not in my head
hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
hopelessly devoted to you

A Little A' This 'N' That
A Little A' This 'N' That
Composer(s): Pete Seeger
Performer(s): Pete Seeger
My grandma, she can make a soup
with a little a' this 'n' that
She can feed the whole sloop group
with a little a' this 'n' that
Stone soup! You know the story
Stone soup! Who needs the glory?
But with grandma cooking, no need to worry
Just a little a' this 'n' that
Grandma likes to make a garden grow
with a little a' this 'n' that
But she likes to have the ground just so
with a little a' this 'n' that
Not too loose and not too firm
In the spring, the ground's all got to be turned
In the fall, lots of compost, to feed the worms
with a little a' this 'n' that
Grandma knows we can build a future
with a little a' this 'n' that
And a few arguments never ever hurt ya
with a little a' this 'n' that
True, this world's in a helluva fix
And some say oil and water don't mix
But they don't know a salad-maker's tricks
with a little a' this 'n' that
The world to come may be like a song
with a little a' this 'n' that
To make ev'rybody want to sing along
with a little a' this 'n' that
A little dissonance ain't no sin
A little skylarking to give us all a grin
Who knows but God's got a plan for the people to win
with a little a' this 'n' that

Hopeless Romantic
Hopeless Romantic
Composer(s): Billy Vera
Performer(s): Billy Vera
Sometimes on Sundays
I sit by the TV
Watching sad movies alone
When it gets to the part
Where the little dog dies
I cry
Sometimes I think
I was born just a little
Behind or ahead of my time
I live in a dream world
Of caring and sharing
And good guys and nobody lies
I'm a believer
And much more than anything
I believe in you
You're not a deceiver
And if you told me the ocean went dry
I'd believe it was true
So call me a hopeless romantic
Because I can still believe
I can still believe in true love
And hopeless romantics
Still can find a way
To make true love last these days
