Ay Catamarca
Ay Catamarca
Composer(s): Victor Heredia
Performer(s): Victor Heredia
Ay Catamarca, madre del canto
por estas venas arde tu sol
por estas venas arde tu sol
Ay Catamarca, cómo soñaban
los ojos míos poderte ver
poderte ver...
Fuiste la cuna de mis abuelos
tu claro cielo los vio renacer
los vio renacer
Y allí mi madre, gracioso mimbre
moreno pelo, se hizo mujer
moreno pelo, se hizo mujer
Ay Catamarca, cómo soñaban
los ojos míos poderte ver
poderte ver...
Ay Catamarca, ay Catamarca
catamarqueño debiera ser
catamarqueño debiera ser
catamarqueño debiera ser...

Don't Look In My Eyes
Don't Look In My Eyes
Composer(s): Brian Potter - Frank Wildhorn
Performer(s): Kenny Rogers
All my memory is safely packed
And my dreams are neatly folded away
I’ve got nothing to show
To a love that might have told okay
All the tables and chairs
They’re standing empty and bare
And there isn’t any sign
You were here
So jsut walk out of the door
Try not to get too near
You might look in my eyes
And see all the pain
And sadness deep inside
Don’t look in my eyes
That’s where I keep the tears I can’t hide
If you’ve just gone, it’ll be alright
I know I’ll get through the night
And I even smile
As we say our goodbyes
Just don’t look in my eyes
All our photographs are stored away
And our letters are there burned in the fire
There’s nothing left here
That make me believer
We had nights of tender love and desire
If this seems to be gray
I’d like to hide away
There’s nothing to remind me of you
When you walk out of the door
Just be sure whatever you do
Don’t look in my eyes
And see all the pains
And sadness deep inside
Don’t look in my eyes
That’s where I keep the tears I can’t hide
If you’ve just gone, it’ll be alright
I know I’ll make it through the night
And I even smile
As we say our goodbyes
Just don’t look in my eyes

Don't Look Down
Don't Look Down
Composer(s): Colin Allen - Mick Ronson
Performer(s): Mick Ronson
Don't know what I'm doing here, but I say it again
Don't know what I'm doing here, but you might know my name
Room full of faces laughing, I'm so alone
Feel a little strange, 'cause I'm so far from home
Don't wanna fall
Remember don't look down
Don't wanna fall
Remember don't look down
Yeah, don't look down
Had a woman's love, but she sent me away
Can't live with a broken heart, but there's no place to stay
I won't be crying, I don't have the time
Better keep my head on straight, 'cause I'm walking the line
Don't wanna fall
Remember don't look down
Don't wanna fall
Remember don't look down
Don't look down
Getting kinda scared but you see, I'm here just the same
Gonna face the day, 'cause there's no one else I can blame
I got my trouble, I'll get it over and done
I'll never get too far if I keep trying to run
Don't wanna fall
Remember don't look down
Don't wanna fall
Remember don't look down
Don't look down
Don't look down

Away From You (Sarah Brightman)
Away From You
Composer(s): Sheldon Harnick - Richard Rodgers - Steve Walsh
Performer(s): Sarah Brightman
Away from you
There is no music
There is no sunlight
The world is gray
Away from you
The clocks are frozen
And time's a traveller
Who's lost his way
The people I meet
Might as well be statues
The words we exchange
Might as well be Greek
The room that I'm in
May be bright and cheerful
But to me
It's dim and bleak
I'm half alive
Until the moment
The door swings open
And you walk through
Now my world starts to glow
Like a stained-glass window
And what was old and cold
Is warm and new
And so you see
Why I can never be
Away from you
Away from you
The world is lifeless
As though creation
Has gone awry
The trees are bare
There are no flowers
The fields are thirsty
The streams are dry
We live, you and I
For a breath of sunlight
So brief an escape
From a world of gray
Our moments of warmth
Have been touch and go, love
But tonight, we'll touch
And stay
The people I meet
Might as well be statues
The words we exchange
Might as well be Greek
The room that I'm in
May be bright and cheerful
But to me
It's dim and bleak
I'm half alive
Until the moment
The door swings open
And you walk through
Now my soul is afloat
On a wave of music
That I could feel such joy
I never knew
And so you see
Why I can never be
Away from you

Don't Look Back
Don't Look Back
Composer(s): Tom Scholz
Performer(s): Boston
Don't look back
A new day is breaking
It's been too long since I felt this way
I don't mind where I get taken
The road is calling
Today is the day
I can see
It took so long to realise
I'm much too strong
Not to compromise
Now I see what I am is holding me down
I'll turn it around
I finally see the dawn arriving
I see beyond the road I'm driving
Far away and left behind
It's a new horizon and I'm awaking now
Oh I see myself in a brand new way
The sun is shining
the clouds are breaking
'Cause I can't lose now, there's no game to play
I can tell
There's no more time left to criticise
I've seen what I could not recognise
Everything in my life was leading me on
but I can be strong
I finally see the dawn arriving
I see beyond the road I'm driving
Far away and left behind

Away From You (Louis Jordan)
Away From You
Composer(s): Rodney Sturgis
Performer(s): Louis Jordan
It made me cry
To say good-bye
I'm sad and blue
Now that you've gone
I can't go on
Away from you
I smile to hide
The tears inside
It's hard to do
My happiness
My life's success
Depends on you
The hours seem long
The world goes wrong
When we're apart
My skies are gray
What can I say
To soothe my heart?
It is the end
I can't pretend
That I'm not blue
Oh, can't you see
Life's misery
Away from you!
The hours are long
The world goes wrong
When we're apart
My skies are gray
What can I say
To soothe my heart?
It is the end
I can't pretend
That I'm not blue
Oh, can't you see
Life's misery
Away from you!
Away from you!

Don't Look Away
Don't Look Away
Composer(s): Pete Townshend
Performer(s): The Who
Don't go and hide
Yesterday you were my girlfiend
If you do
My inside goes around and around in a whirlwind
There's a stone in my shoe
So I can't catch you up
My head's in a lion's mouth
Wants to eat me up
Right here today
Don't look away
I've always been true
And I still love you
So don't look away
There's a lot you can do
To get me away
You've got to stay
Don't look away
Don't look away
I once heard you say
If I ever was down you would help me
Now my head's being chewed up
You pretend that you don't see
There's a stone in my shoe
So I can't catch you up
My head's in a lion's mouth
Wants to eat me up
Right here today
Don't look away
I've always been true
And I still love you
So don't look away
There's a lot you can do
To get me away
You've got to stay
Don't look away
Don't look away
I've always been true
And I still love you
So don't look away
There's a lot you can do
To get me away
You've got to stay
Don't look away
Don't look away
Don't look away
Don't look away
Don't look away

Polly In A Porny
Polly In A Porny
Composer(s): Shel Silverstein
Performer(s): Shel Silverstein
Haha I kissed Polly goodnight
Haha as we stood at her front door
Now she's quite a proper lady
So I didn't ask for anything more
But haha I was feeling oh so groovie
That I went down to the movie
And I sat down and guess just what I saw
I saw Polly in a porny
Down at the dirty flicks
I saw Polly in a porny
I didn't know she knew them tricks
What I seen nearly struck me blind
I never knew she was the artically inclined
I saw Polly in a porny with a pony
And I've nearly blowed my mind
Was she gallopin' (no no no)
Oh was she trottin' (no no no)
Oh was she riding across the country
with some tall dark handsome person
Oh was she wearin' her cowboy hat
Haha well not exactly that
But at least I recall she had her spurs on
I love ol' Polly in a porny
I keep on going back
Yeah in the very last row I'm singin' low
With my coat bouncin' in my lap
Ooh I spend each dime I can afford
I swear she's gonna win an academy award
I saw Polly in a porny with a pony
And the pony seemed a little bored
Ooh oh ride
Polly ride slide
Polly slide

Don't Look At Me That Way
Don't Look At Me That Way
Composer(s): Cole Porter
Performer(s): Irene Bordoni
and multiple other artists
Oh, Im so mad about a lad
It's too deep to express
And when he tries to use his eyes
They have instant success
So full of passion, these pupils are
That girls forget what their scruples are
So when he turns them on me
I murmur tenderly.....
I think you're great, I think you're grand
And I don't mind if you hold my hand
But don't look at me that way
Your kisses, too, are heavenly
And oh, so full of variety
But don't look at me that way
When you tell me sweetly you're mine completely
I always give a long cheer
But those sudden flashes behind your lashes
Are nobody's business, dear
Since you began to play your role
I've lost my heart and I've lost my soul
But as for losing my self-control
Don't look at me that way
I just adore your loving arms
In fact, they're two of your greatest charms
But don't look at me that way
I'm very mild, I'm very meek
My will is strong, but my won't is weak
So don't look at me that way
When that strange expression of indiscretion
Begins to show in your stare
There's a hocus-pocus about your focus
That gives me a terrible scare
I feel a thrill when you arrive
And while you're near I simply thrive
But if you want to get home alive
Don't look at me that way

It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World
It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World
Composer(s): Ernest Gold - Mack David
It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world
In France the girls wear scanties
While on lamb chops they put panties
I'm telling you it's a mad, mad, mad, mad world
A Japanese named Luey
Says the Chinese hate chop suey
Without a doubt
It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world
The only thing you are sure of
Is that nothing is sure
Have a ball, live it up, only fools give it up
Toujours the amour, but toujours
So be a happy gaffer
Be a screamer, be a laugher
Let boys be gay and say, "What the hey"
It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world
My dear old Uncle Herman
Says that French Toast should be German
Jawohl, that's right
It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world
I know it may sound jerky
But in Turkey who eats turkey
Yes, yes, confess
It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world
Out traffic is so congested
Mass confusion on wheels
But Detroit is adroit, what they'll do in Detroit
Is make bigger automobiles
So be a happy fellow
Be a clown, boy, Punchinello
Get off the shelf and enjoy yourself
It's a mad, mad, mad, mad
It's a mad, it's a mad, it's a mad, it's a mad world!

Don't Like Goodbyes
Don't Like Goodbyes
Composer(s): Harold Arlen - Truman Capote
Performer(s): Pearl Bailey
and multiple other artists
Don't like goodbyes, tears or sighs
I'm not too good at leavin' time
I got no taste for grievin' time
No, no, not me
You've been my near one's, always my dear one's
I never thought that I would find
Another love, a diff'rent kind
But it came to be
Well, if you think I'm telling you lies
Go try your luck and look into his eyes
But remember, you must remember he's mine
And my world overhead has a clear new shine
Have I found the answer
Yes, he's the only answer
Guess I won't have to guide him, jus' walk beside him
Can't you see it clearly that I love him dearly
Don't want to leave you, sorry to grieve you
It's trav'lin' time and I must move on
Found the man to lean upon, and if I could arrange it
Oh, would I care to change it
Not me!

Mary's Vineyard
Mary's Vineyard
Composer(s): Wayne Carson Thompson - Bob Wilkins
Performer(s): Claude King
The grapes in Mary's vineyard are the sweetest on the vine
Old man Oscar Dill lived back in the Tennessee hills
He's got him two or three stills and he makes heavy water
Oh I worked for him one time runnin' sour mash across the line
And he warned me to pay no mind to his three daughters
Yeah one was eighteen and one was twenty two one was just my age
One by one I opened the door to the gilded cage (yes I did now)
He don't know and I ain't gonna tell him what I've done one time
Cause he thinks he raised three little angels ah I think that's fine
I made love to his sweet Martha and pretty little Caroline
But the grapes in Mary's vineyard are the sweetest on the vine
Now old man Oscar Dill said he wouldn't hesitate to kill
Anybody messin' round his stills or his three daughters
But even so late at night when the moon wasn't shining too bright
I'd sneaked around get brave all right sippin' his heavy water
Yeah one was eighteen...
I made love to his sweet Martha...

Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me
Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me
Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin
First release by: Elton John - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists
I can't light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
I can't find, oh the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way I feel
Don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have they need love to help them heal

First release by: Gerry & The Pacemakers - 1963
When I'm away from you
No wonder I feel blue
Without your love (without your love)
Without your charms
Want you in my arms
I dream about you every night
Hopin', waitin' for you to write
Until at last (until at last)
I find, can't get you off my mind
(off my mind, can't get you off my mind)
If you only knew
How my poor heart yearns for you
Then darling you'll be
Ever true and faithful to me
So when I'm by your side
Please remember how I cried
For your love (for your love)
For your charms
Want you in my arms (in my arms, want you in my arms)
If you only knew
How my poor heart yearns for you
Then darling you'll be
Ever true and faithful to me
So when I'm by your side
Please remember how I cried
For your love (for your love)
For your charms
Want you in my arms
