Amor Barato
Amor Barato
Composer(s): Chico Buarque - Francis Hime
Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Francis Hime
Eu queria ser
Um tipo de compositor
Capaz de cantar nosso amor
Modesto
Um tipo de amor
Que é de mendigar cafuné
Que é pobre e às vezes nem é
Honesto
Pechincha de amor
Mas que eu faço tanta questão
Que se tiver precisão
Eu furto
Vem cá, meu amor
Aguenta o teu cantador
Me esquenta porque o cobertor é curto
Mas levo esse amor
Com o zelo de quem leva o andor
Eu velo pelo meu amor
Que sonha
Que enfim, nosso amor
Também pode ter seu valor
Também é um tipo de flor
Que nem outro tipo de flor
Dum tipo que tem
Que não deve nada a ninguém
Que dá mais que maria-sem-vergonha
Eu queria ser
Um tipo de compositor
Capaz de cantar nosso amor
Barato
Um tipo de amor
Que é de esfarrapazr e cerzir
Que é de comer e cuspir
No prato
Mas levo esse amor
Com zelo de quem leva o andor
Eu velo pelo meu amor
Que sonha
Que enfim, nosso amor
Também pode ter seu valor
Também é um tipo de flor
Que nem outro tipo de flor
Dum tipo que tem
Que não deve nada a ninguém
Que dá mais que maria-sem-vergonha

Daddy's Home
Daddy's Home
((Adapted from: A Thousand Miles Away (The Heartbeats) - 1956))
Composer(s): William Miller - James Sheppard - Clarence Bassett - Charles Baskerville
Performer(s): Shep & The Limelites - 1961
You're my love, you're my angel
You're the girl of my dreams
I'd like to thank you for waiting patiently
Daddy's home, your Daddy's home to stay
How I've waited for this moment
To be by your side
Your best friend wrote and told me
You had teardrops in your eyes
Daddy's home, your Daddy's home to stay
It wasn't on a sunday (monday and tuesday went by)
It wasn't on a tuesday afternoon (all I could do was cry)
But I made a promise that you treasured
I made it back home to you
How I've waited for this moment
To be by your side
Your best friend wrote and told me
You had teardrops in your eyes
Daddy's home, your Daddy's home to stay
Daddy's home to stay
I'm not a thousand miles away
Daddy's home to stay
I'm gonna be here come what may
Daddy's home to stay......

Amor (Luis Eduardo Aute)
Amor
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Amor
te digo esta palabra
mil veces repetida
acaso sin pensarla
como una letanía
Amor
te digo esta palabra
que se me hace vacía
a fuerza de nombrarla
no sé que significa
Amor
por qué he de pronunciarla
sintiendo esta agonía
si no me dice nada
la digo por rutina
Amor
qué enfebrecida magia
ardiendo en tus pupilas
me arranca esa palabra
si ya no sé decirla
Amor...

Daddy's Hands
Daddy's Hands
Composer(s): Holly Dunn - Chris Waters
Performer(s): Holly Dunn
and multiple other artists
I remember daddy's hands folded silently in prayer
And reachin' out to hold me, when I had a nightmare
You could read quite a story in the callous' and lines
Years of work and worry had left their mark behind
I remember daddy's hands how they held my mama tight
And patted my back for something done right
There are things that I'd forgotten that I loved about the man
But I'll always remember the love in daddy's hands
Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin'
Daddy's hands were hard as steel when I'd done wrong
Daddy's hands weren't always gentle but I've come to understand
There was always love in daddy's hands.
I remember daddy's hands workin' 'til they bled
Sacrifised unselfishly just to keep us all fed
If I could do things over, I'd live my life again
And never take for granted the love in daddy's hands
Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin'
Daddy's hands were hard as steel when I'd done wrong
Daddy's hands weren't always gentle but I've come to understand
There was always love in daddy's hands.
Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin'
Daddy's hands were hard as steel when I'd done wrong
Daddy's hands weren't always gentle but I've come to understand
There was always love in daddy's hands

Amor (Bing Crosby)
Amor
Composer(s): Mendez - Ruiz - Skylar
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
and multiple other artists
Amor, amor, amor
This word so sweet, that I repeat, means I adore you
Amor, amor, my love
Would you deny this heart that I have placed before you
I can't find another word with meaning so clear
My lips try to whisper sweeter things in your ear
But somehow or other nothing sounds quite so dear
As this soft caressing word I know
Amor, amor, my love
When you're away there is no day and nights are lonely
Amor, amor, my love
Make life divine, say you'll be mine and love me only
I can't find another word with meaning so clear
My lips try to whisper sweeter things in your ear
But somehow or other nothing sounds quite so dear
As this soft caressing word I know
Amor, amor, amor ...

Daddy's Girl
Daddy's Girl
Composer(s): Glen Martin
Performer(s): Red Sovine
I recall the night that you came into this world
I couldn't believe the doctor when he said, "It's a little girl"
I said, "Now Doc, you must be wrong
You see I want a boy"
Then he laid you in my arms and my heart sang with joy
(Daddy's Girl, Daddy's Girl)
(I'm the center of Daddy's world)
(I know I'm Daddy's number one)
(For he loves me like I was his son)
(Daddy's Girl)
I recall the day I took you to a baseball game
You brought along your baby doll and half its baby things
We sat there a-playin' house, while the Dodgers played the Braves
And ev'ryone in the bleachers looked at us as if to say
(Daddy's Girl, Daddy's Girl)
(I'm the center of Daddy's world)
(I know I'm Daddy's number one)
(For he loves me like I was his son)
(Daddy's Girl)
I recall the day I took you on a fishin' trip
You said, "Daddy won't that hook hurt the fishes' lip?"
And you said,"If they don't get air, those things in the can will die"
So we turned the worms a-loose and chased some butterflies
(Daddy's Girl, Daddy's Girl)
(I'm the center of Daddy's world)
(I know I'm Daddy's number one)
(For he loves me like I was his son)
(Daddy's Girl)
I recall the day that your young man come to call
Seems like only yesterday we swam and played football
But I know the time has come, that I must set you free
But no matter where you are, you know what you are to me
(Daddy's Girl, Daddy's Girl)
(I'm the center of Daddy's world)
(I know I'm Daddy's number one)
(For he loves me like I was his son)
(Daddy's Girl)
(Daddy's Girl, Daddy's Girl)...

Amongst Butterflies
Amongst Butterflies
Composer(s): Paul Weller
First release by: Paul Weller - 1992
The sunny sand we ran along
Everyday began upon
The summer’s kiss of love and adventure
And every June that we fell into
Left a mark upon us too
Etched forever as a moment we’d remember
And we’d remember
The empty woods where we played
Every hour of every day
The holidays went on forever
And in the woods was a soldier’s tomb
The ghost of which looked over you
And God was there amongst the trees
We felt his whisper as the summer’s breeze
And every night and every day
I learnt to love it in a special way
As I remember
What it’s like to walk amongst butterflies

Daddy-O (Daddy-O) ready to go
All the girls are batty over Daddy-O

To know that he's around
He's got a set of horns
With the craziest sound
The girls start to jiving
When they hear him blow
They all jump and holler
Here comes Daddy-O
Daddy-O (Daddy-O) sure good looking
Daddy-O (Daddy-O) always cooking
Daddy-O (Daddy-O) ready to go
All the girls are batty over Daddy-O
All the girls are batty over Daddy-O

Among My Souvenirs
Among My Souvenirs
Composer(s): Edgar Leslie - Horatio Nicholls
Performer(s): Connie Francis
There's nothing left for me of days that used to be
There's just a memory among my souvenirs
Some letters tied in blue, a photograph or two
I see a rose from you among my souvenirs
A few more tokens rest within my treasure chest
And though they do their best to give me consolation
I count them all apart and as the teardrops start
I find a broken heart among my souvenirs
I count them all apart and as the teardrops start
I find a broken heart among my souvenirs

Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast
Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast
Composer(s): Peter Callander - Geoff Stephens
Performer(s): Wayne Newton
and multiple other artists
The love between the two of us was dyin'
And it got so bad I knew I had to leave
But halfway down that highway, when I turned around
I saw my little daughter running after me, crying
Daddy, don't you walk so fast, daddy don't you walk so fast
Daddy, slow down some, 'cause you're making me run
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
If only for the sake of my sweet daughter
I just had to turn back home right there and then
And try to start a new life
With the mother of my child
I couldn't bear to hear those words again
Daddy, don't you walk so fast, daddy don't you walk so fast
Daddy, slow down some, 'cause you're making me run
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
It broke my heart to tell my little daughter
That her daddy had to run to catch a train
She had no way of knowing that I was leaving home for good
I turned around and there she was again, crying
Daddy, don't you walk so fast, daddy don't you walk so fast
Daddy, slow down some, 'cause you're making me run
Daddy, don't you walk so fast

Amo
Amo
((French Version: J'aime (by Salvatore Adamo))
Composer(s): Salvatore Adamo
Performer(s): Raphael
Amo tu pelo alborotado
Que huele a tierra y huele a mar
Y al viento pues ha logrado
Tu peinado desatar
Amo a la tarde de verano
Tu pequeño corazón
Cuando se escapa de mi mano
Como alegre gorrión
Amo la luz de tu mirada
Amo tus labios de clavel,
Amo mi vida más que nada
La caricia de tu piel
Amo que tu sombra y la mía
Parezcan un solo ser
Frente al borde de la bahía
Roja ya de atardecer
Amo tu risa, también tu llanto
No sé por qué pero es así
Nadie en la vida quiso tanto
Como yo te quiero a ti

Amnesty
Amnesty
Composer(s): Douma
Performer(s): The Hollies
Love is the sweetest amnesty
Floats like a cloud between the sky and sea
I'll give it to you
Could you please give it to me
Love is the sweetest amnesty
Given by the powers
Then let us be
I'll give it to you
Could you please give it to me
'cause I need you
We can talk
We can see
If we disagree we do it honestly
Let our lovin' be
The sweetest amnesty
Between you and me
There's bound to be
Some conscientious objection
Our spirits dressed in mystery
Speak solely through affection
We can talk
We can see
If we disagree we do it honestly
Let our lovin' be
The sweetest amnesty
Love is the sweetest amnesty
Floats like a cloud between the sky and sea
I'll give it to you
Could you please give it to me
'Cos I need you (need you)
We can talk
We can see
If we disagree we do it honestly
Let our lovin' be
The sweetest amnesty
Let our lovin' be
The sweetest amnesty

Daddy Wouldn't Buy Me A Bow Wow
Daddy Wouldn't Buy Me A Bow Wow
Composer(s): Joseph Tabrar
First release by: Vesta Victoria - 1892
Covered by multiple other artists
I love my little cat, I do
With soft black silky hair
It comes with me each day to school
And sits upon the chair
When teacher says "why do you bring
That little pet of your's?"
I tell her that I bring my cat
Along with me because
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
I've got a little cat
And I'm very fond of that
But I'd rather have a bow-wow
Wow, wow, wow, wow
We used to have two tiny dogs
Such pretty little dears
But daddy sold 'em 'cause they used
To bite each other's ears
I cried all day, at eight each night
Papa sent me to bed
When Ma came home and wiped my eyes
I cried again and said
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
I've got a little cat
And I'm very fond of that
But I'd rather have a bow-wow
Wow, wow, wow, wow
I'll be so glad when I get old
To do just as I "likes"
I'll keep a parrot and at least
A half a dozen tykes
And when I've got a tiny pet
I'll kiss the little thing
Then put it in its little cot
And on to it I'll sing
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow! bow wow!
I've got a little cat
And I'm very fond of that
But I'd rather have a bow-wow
Wow, wow, wow, wow

Daddy What If
Daddy What If
Composer(s): Shel Silverstein
Performer(s): Bobby Bare & Bobby Bare Jr.
and multiple other artists
BB:
I'd like to introduce you to the next superstar
Twenty years from now he's gonna be so ashamed
of what he has done on this record that he's probably gonna sue me
And he and all of his friends are gonna be sitting around stoned
and he'll say, "Look what the old man made me do!"
Let's give a big round of applause for Bobby Bare Jr.
Junior:
Daddy, what if the sun stopped shining?
What would happen then?
BB:
If the sun stopped shining, you'd be so surprised
You'd stare at the heavens with wide open eyes
And the wind would carry your light to the skies
And the sun would start shining again
Junior:
But, Daddy, what if the wind stopped blowing?
What would happen then?
BB:
If the wind stopped blowing, then the land would be dry
And your boat wouldn't sail and, son, your kite couldn't fly
And the grass would see your trouble and she'd tell the wind
And the wind would start blowing again
Junior:
But, Daddy, what if the grass stopped growing?
What would happen then?
BB:
Well, if the grass stopped growing you'd probably cry
And the ground would be watered by the tears from your eyes
And like your love for me, that grass would grow so high
Yes, the grass would start growing again
Junior:
But, Daddy, what if I stopped loving you?
What would happen then?
BB:
If you stopped loving me, then the grass would stop growing
The sun would stop shining and the wind would stop blowing
So you see, if you wanna keep this old world a-going
You'd better start loving me again, again
You better start loving me again
You hear me, Bobby?
Both:
You better start loving me again
You love me, Bobby? Yes
You better start loving me again

Amnesia
Amnesia
Composer(s): Jon Pousette-Dart
Performer(s): Pousette-Dart Band
When you hit me on the head with your beer bottle
Something in my chemistry changed
And though I've already decided to forgive you
My friends think I'm permanently deranged
When I wake up try to put these things together
Of all the lovin' times that we did have
I get static in my ears and a hazy picture
And I hear your voice inside begin to laugh
I hope that it's only amnesia
Believe me I'm sick but not insane
Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia
My friends they don't look at me the same
Sometimes I feel o.k. but when I talk I stutter
I can't remember back a few minutes ago
The doctors all come up with the same answer
Boy if I'm that far gone there's no where else to go
I hope that it's only amnesia
Believe me I'm sick but not insane
Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia
My friends they don't look at me the same
I hope that it's only amnesia
Believe me I'm sick but not insane
Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia
My friends they don't look at me the same
I hope that it's only amnesia
Believe me I'm sick but not insane
Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia
My friends they don't look at me the same

Si tu veux monter dans mon dirigeable
On ira faire un tour autour d'un bois
On rentrera ce soir
Très tard
Quand tu le voudras
On ira s'étendre sur les nuages
On se délectera du panorama
On sera toi et moi
Les Rois
Quand tu le voudras
Si tu veux descendre du dirigeable
Tu n'as qu'à tirer sur le cordon
Et ça descend tout seul
Le sol
Se rapproche déjà
Si tu veux descendre du dirigeable
Surtout ne te retourne jamais
Il ne passe qu'une fois
Voilà
Ça se termine comme ça
