La Canzone Popolare


La Canzone Popolare
Composer(s): Ivano Fossati
Performer(s): Ivano Fossati
Alzati che si sta alzando la canzone popolare
se c'e' qualcosa da dire ancora, se c'e' qualcosa da fare
alzati che si sta alzando la canzone popolare
se c'e' qualcosa da dire ancora, ce lo dirà
se c'e' qualcosa da imparare ancora, ce lo dirà
sono io oppure sei tu, che hanno mandato più lontano
per poi giocargli il ritorno sempre all'ultima mano
e sono io oppure sei tu, chi ha sbagliato più forte
che per avere tutto il mondo fra le braccia
ci si e' trovato anche la morte
sono io oppure sei tu, ma sono io oppure sei tu
alzati che si sta alzando la canzone popolare
se c'e' qualcosa da dire ancora, se c'e' qualcosa da fare
alzati che si sta alzando la canzone popolare
se c'e' qualcosa da capire ancora, ce lo dirà
se c'e' qualcosa da imparare ancora, ce lo dirà
sono io oppure sei tu la donna che ha lottato tanto
perché il brillare naturale dei suoi occhi
non lo scambiassero per pianto
e invece io lo vedi da te, arrivo sempre l'indomani
e ti busso alla porta ancora e poi ti cerco con le mani
sono io, lo vedi da te, mi riconosci, lo vedi da te
alzati che sta passando la canzone popolare
sono io, sono proprio io, che non mi guardo più allo specchio
per non vedere le mie mani più veloci, ne' il mio vestito più vecchio
e prendiamola fra le braccia questa vita danzante
questi pezzi di amore caro, quest'esistenza tremante
che sono io e che sei anche tu, che sono io e che sei anche tu
alzati che sta passando la canzone popolare
alzati che si sta alzando la canzone popolare
se c'e' qualcosa da dire ancora, ce lo dirà
se c'e' qualcosa da capire ancora, ce lo dirà
se c'e' qualcosa da chiarire ancora, ce lo dirà
se c'e' qualcosa da cantare ancora, ce lo dirà

Doors Of Sleep


Doors Of Sleep
Performer(s): Steve Howe
Life is just a reflection
Sometime mirrored in the past
As we strive for perfection
We live until we last
Where the new might grow with the old
Where the fool is oft times the wise
Everything has got to be evened out
Leaving as without a doubt
Home, home from the horizon
Far and clear
Hither to the soft wings sweep
Flocks of the memories
Of the days draw near
The dove-cote doors of sleep
Which way are they, that come through this sweet light
Of all these homing birds
Which? with the straightest and the swiftest flight
Your words to me, your words
The first time I took this girl's hand
She was as if for whom I was born
And there's more besides a fair morning
Needed for a fair day

Door To Door Salesman


Door To Door Salesman
Performer(s): Matt Minglewood
Hey Baby, Hey Baby
Don't treat me oh so bad
Oh baby, Oh baby
Don't you know that I'm the best thing
You ever had not gonna stand for that
Well went out last night, like I did every evening
Play guitar down at the Roll & Tumble bar
Went out at my front door who should I be receiving
But scooby-dooby dude in a Cadillac car
First I thought once, then I thought twice
Then I said no that girl is far too nice
I was just about to ask that dude just what he was selling
But the look in your eyes, in you eyes
Believe me I didn't need no telling baby
He was a salesman for his own company
He was trying to talk my baby into leaving me
He was a product with a written guarantee
Given you samples just for free
Oh Baby, Oh Baby
Did you have to treat me oh so bad
Oh baby, Oh baby
Don't you know that I'm the best thing
You ever had, not gonna stand for that

Azul la manana es azul
el sol si le llamo vendra
se detendra en mi voz
y hasta la eternidad
en su camino ira hacia otro azul
Despues, yo no se si hay despues
si el sol volvera a despertar
porque la cancion no ha de ser verdad
porque en carnaval
es que te busco yo
aunque no habras de estar
y mentira tu voz en el azul
Despues, yo no se si hay despues
si el sol volvera a despertar
porque la cancion no ha de ser verdad
porque en carnaval
Cantara el corazón, la razón de vivir
cantara sin hablar, ni sentir

Door To Door


Door To Door
Composer(s): Stu Cook
Performer(s): Creedence Clearwater Revival
Find me out awalkin', time the whistle starts acallin'
Maybe stoppin' early, knockin' at your door
Take so long to answer, Lord knows it ain't the milkman
Could be stoppin' early, sellin'
Door To Door
Here's my latest sample; like to show you how to use it
First, you pull the curtain while I spread some here
Wipe the surface gently, try to use a circle motion
Safe for all your problems, and my price is fair
This stuff'll get the stain out if you use it loosely wadded
This here'll take the pain out and won't mess your hair
Place your order early 'cause you know I'm in a hurry
Your neighbor's in her doorway, won't you sign right here
Place your order early 'cause you know I'm in a hurry
Your neighbor's in her doorway, won't you sign right here
Man is on the last train, all that work and no play
Could be stoppin' early, knockin' at your door
Time for me to head on; pack my kit and 'So long'
Catch you bright and early sellin'
Door To Door
This stuff'll get the stain out if you use it loosely wadded
This here'll take the pain out and won't mess your hair
Place your order early 'cause you know I'm in a hurry
Your neighbor's in her doorway, won't you sign right here
Place your order early 'cause you know I'm in a hurry
Your neighbor's in her doorway, won't you sign right here
Place your order early 'cause you know I'm in a hurry
Your neighbor's in her doorway, won't you sign right here

Matin, fais lever le soleil
Matin, à l'instant du réveil
Viens tendrement poser
Tes perles de rosée
Sur la nature en fleurs
Chère à mon cœur
Le ciel a choisi mon pays
Pour faire un nouveau paradis
Où loin des tourments
Danse un éternel printemps
Pour les amants
Chante chante mon cœur
La chanson du matin
Dans la joie de la vie qui reviens
Matin, fais lever le soleil
Matin, à l'instant du réveil
Mets dans le cœur battant
De celui que j'attends
Un doux rayon d'amour
Beau comme le jour
Afin que son premier soupir
Réponde à mon premier désir
Oui, l'heure est venue
Où chaque baiser perdu
Ne revient plus...
Oui, l'heure est venue
Où chaque baiser perdu
Ne revient plus
Chante chante mon cœur
La chanson du matin
Dans la joie de la vie qui reviens

Doonaree


Doonaree
Composer(s): Eilish Boland
Performer(s): Vera Lynn
and various other artists
If you ever go to Ireland
I'm sure you will agree
To take the road from Dublin town
Way down to Doonaree
'Tis there you'll find a wishing well
Beyond a chestnut tree
In a shady nook, by a winding brook
Will you make this wish for me
Oh to be in Doonaree
With a sweetheart I once knew
To stroll in the shade of the leafy glade
Where the rhododendrons grew
To sit with my love on the bridge
Above the rippling waterfall
But to go back home, never more to roam
Is my dearest wish of all
And if you take the hilly path
To the woods where bluebells grow
Where we as barefoot children played
So many years ago
You'll find a slumbering castle there
Enshrined in memory
In a shady nook, by a winding brook
Will you make this wish for me
Oh to be in Doonaree
With a sweetheart I once knew
To stroll in the shade of the leafy glade
Where the rhododendrons grew
To sit with my love on the bridge
Above the rippling waterfall
But to go back home, never more to roam
Is my dearest wish of all
To go back home, never more to roam
Is my dearest wish of all
Back home, never more to roam
Is my dearest wish of all

Das Glück kam zu mir wie ein Traum
Musik aus dem endlosen Raum
so wie ein Sonnenstrahl
auf zartem Blütentau
im ersten Morgengraum
so war dein Kuß
Noch nie war das Glück mir so nah
noch nie war ein Herz für mich da
die MAske zerbrach
ich hab dein Gesicht gesehen
die Zeit blieb stehen
ein vergessener Kuß
ein verlorener Blick
kommen nie mehr im Leben zurück
Noch nie war das Glück mir so nah
noch nie war ein Herz für mich da

Dooley


Dooley
Composer(s): Rodney Dillard - Mitch Jayne
Performer(s): The Dillards
and multiple other artists
Dooley was a good old man, lived below the mill
Dooley had two daughters and a forty gallon still
One gal watched the boiler, the other watched the spout
and mama corked the bottles when old Dooley fetched them out
Chorus
Dooley, slippin' up the holler, Dooley, tryin' to make a dollar
Dooley, gimmee a swaller and I'll pay you back some day
They revenuers came for him, a-slippin' thru the woods
Dooley kept behind them all and never lost his goods
Dooley was a trader when into town he come
Sugar by the bushel and molasses by the ton
chorus...
I remember very well the day old Dooley died
the women folk looked sorry and the men stood 'round and cried
Now Dooley's on the mountain, he lies there all alone
they put a jug beside him and a barrel for a stone
chorus...

La Canzone Di Marinella


La Canzone Di Marinella
((French Version: La Romance De Marinelle (by Roberto Ferri) - 2003))
Composer(s): Fabrizio De André
First release by: Fabrizio De André - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
Questa di Marinella è la storia vera
che scivolò nel fiume a primavera
ma il vento che la vide così bella
dal fiume la portò sopra una stella
Sola senza il ricordo di un dolore
vivevi senza il sogno di un amore
ma un re senza corona e senza scorta
bussò tre volte un giorno alla tua porta
Bianco come la luna il suo cappello
come l'amore rosso il suo mantello
tu lo seguisti senza una ragione
come un ragazzo segue un aquilone
E c'era il sole e avevi gli occhi belli
lui ti baciò le labbra ed i capelli
c'era la luna e avevi gli occhi stanchi
lui pose le sue mani suoi tuoi fianchi
Furono baci e furono sorrisi
poi furono soltanto i fiordalisi
che videro con gli occhi delle stelle
fremere al vento e ai baci la tua pelle
Dicono poi che mentre ritornavi
nel fiume chissà come scivolavi
e lui che non ti volle creder morta
bussò cent'anni ancora alla tua porta
Questa è la tua canzone Marinella
che sei volata in cielo su una stella
e come tutte le più belle cose
vivesti solo un giorno, come le rose
E come tutte le più belle cose
vivesti solo un giorno, come le rose

Doo Dah Blues


Doo Dah Blues
Composer(s): Fred Rose - Eddie White
What will become of me
what will become of me
something it's plain to see is wrong with me
yes wrong with me
I'm always sighing I'm always crying
Sad am I
here's the reason why
Just only yesterday my sweetie went away
I thought t'was all in play but when I heard her say
"Doo Dah, good-bye to you
Doo Dah, that means that I'm thru"
Oh! Lordy
You've heard my tale of woe
and now I know you know just why I'm worried so
Yes worried so and flurried so
I loved her only that's why I'm lonely
and I miss most of all her kiss
maybe if she could see
Just what she did to me
sorry perhaps she'd be and set my poor heart free
but I suppose she's thru
there's nothing else I can do
Oh! those Doo Dah Blues
I want to lose those Doo Dah Blues
for all night long till early dawn they seem to come and never leave me
Lordy but they grieve me
Do they, they do I'll say they do
Oh! I know those Doo Dah Blues will sure refuse poor me to lose
I've got 'em now and oh!
somehow I know that if you'd had 'em
you'd a long to lose the Doo Dah Blues

La Canzone Dell'amore Perduto


La Canzone Dell'amore Perduto
Composer(s): Fabrizio De André
First release by: Fabrizio De André - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists
Ricordi sbocciavano le viole
con le nostre parole
"non ci lasceremo mai
mai e poi mai"
Vorrei dirti, ora, le stesse cose
ma come fan presto, amore
ad appassire le rose
così per noi
L'amore che strappa i capelli
é perduto ormai
Non resta che qualche svogliata carezza
e un po' di tenerezza
E quando ti troverai in mano
quei fiori appassiti
al sole di un aprile
ormai lontano li rimpiangerai
Ma sarà la prima
che incontri per strada
che tu coprirai d'oro
per un bacio mai dato
per un amore nuovo
E sarà la prima che incontri per strada
che tu coprirai d'oro
per un bacio mai dato
per un amore nuovo

Don't You Worry, Dearie


Don't You Worry, Dearie
Composer(s): Al. W. Morse - Percy Wenrich
A winsome little maid in an everglade
With her soldier boy in blue
Maiden softly sighs lovelight in her eyes
For she loves him fond and true
Boy has come to tell girl he loves so well
Duty calls him far away
Maiden is in tears for his life she fears
Then she hears him softly say
The war is over now boy has kept his vow
Nothing can their love destroy
They are not alone in their little home
There's a bouncing baby boy
Happy is their lot, trouble they forgot
As they stand behind his bed
Oft when stars shine bright they recall the night
When to her he softly said
Don't you worry Dearie
Dearie don't you sigh
See the moon is smiling
In the deep blue sky
Soon I'll be returning
Then I'll claim my own
Wedding bells will gaily ring
And the birds will sweetly sing
Little girlie when I come back home

La Canzone Del Sole


La Canzone Del Sole
Composer(s): Lucio Battisti - Mogol
First release by: Lucio Battisti - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists
Le bionde trecce
gli occhi azzurri e poi
le tue calzette rosse
e l'innocenza sulle gote tue
due arance ancor più rosse
e la cantina buia dove noi
respiravamo piano
e le tue corse, l'eco dei tuoi no,oh no
mi stai facendo paura
Dove sei stata
cosa hai fatto mai?
Una donna, donna
dimmi
cosa vuol dir sono una donna ormai
Ma quante braccia
ti hanno stretto, tu lo sai
per diventar quel che sei
che importa tanto tu non me lo dirai
purtroppo
Ma ti ricordi l'acqua verde e noi
le rocce, bianco e il fondo
di che colore sono gli occhi tuoi
se me lo chiedi non rispondo
O mare nero, o mare nero, o mare ne...
tu eri chiaro e trasparente come me
O mare nero, o mare nero, o mare ne...
tu eri chiaro e trasparente come me
Le biciclette abbandonate sopra
il prato e poi
noi due distesi all'ombra
un fiore in bocca può servire, sai
più allegro tutto sembra
e d'improvviso quel silenzio fra noi
e quel tuo sguardo strano
ti cade il fiore dalla bocca e poi
oh no, ferma, ti prego la mano
Dove sei stata
cos'hai fatto mai?
Una donna, donna
donna, dimmi
cosa vuol dir sono una donna ormai
Io non conosco quel sorriso sicuro che hai
non so chi sei, non so più chi sei
mi fai paura oramai
purtroppo
Ma ti ricordi le onde grandi e noi
gli spruzzi e le tue risa
cos'è rimasto in fondo agli occhi tuoi
la fiamma è spenta o è accesa?
O mare nero, o mare nero, o mare ne...
Il sole quando sorge,sorge piano e poi
la luce si diffonde tutto intorno a noi
le ombre dei fantasmi della notte
sono alberi e cespugli ancora in fiore
sono gli occhi di una donna ancora
pieni d'amore

Everybody's got a thing
But some don't know how to handle it
Always reachin' out in vain
Accepting the things not worth having but
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
'Cause I'll be standing on the side

They say your style of life's a drag
And that you must go other places
But just don't you feel too bad
When you get fooled by smiling faces but
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
'Cause I'll be standing on the side
When you check it out...
When you get off... your trip
Don't you worry 'bout a thing...
Don't you worry 'bout a thing...ooh
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
'Cause I'll be standing on the side
When you check it out...
When you get off... your trip
Everybody needs a change
A chance to check out the new
But you're the only one to see
The changes you take yourself through but
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, pretty mama
'Cause I'll be standing in the wings
When you check it out
Don't you worry 'bout a thing

Don't You Want Me


Don't You Want Me
Composer(s): John William Callis - Philip Oakey - Sally Christine Woodall
First release by: The Human League - 1981
Covered by multiple other artists
You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up and turned you around
Turned you into someone new
Now five years later on, you've got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too
Don't, don't you want me
You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me
Don't, don't you want me
You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me
It's much too late to find
You think you've changed your mind
You'd better change it back
Or we will both be sorry
Don't you want me baby
Don't you want me
Don't you want me baby
Don't you want me
I was working as as waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true
But I always knew I'd find a much better place
Either with or without you
The five years we have had have been such good times
I still love you
But now I think it's time I live my life on my own
I guess it's something I must do
