Ich Kauf' Mir Lieber Einen Tirolerhut


Ich Kauf' Mir Lieber Einen Tirolerhut
Performer(s): Billy Mo



Aus Las Vegas kam ein Mann
bot mir 1000 Dollar an
Er sagt: "Du wirst großer Star"
doch als ich nach "drüben" kam
war alles gar nicht wahr

Ich kauf' mir lieber einen Tirolerhut
der steht mir so gut
der steht mir so gut
Dann mach' ich sonntagabend Blasmusik
immer nur dasselbe Stück

In San Remo reiche Frau
machte mit mir große Schau
sagte zu mir: "Lieber Bill
ich nehm' dich zum Mann
doch du mußt machen was ich will"

Ich kauf' mir lieber einen Tirolerhut
der steht mir so gut
der steht mir so gut
Dann mach' ich sonntagabend Blasmusik
immer nur dasselbe Stück

Dann kam ich zum Militär
Kinder war das Leben schwer
sagte zu mir Corporal
"Wenn du erst Gefreiter bist
wirst du auch General"

Ich kauf' mir lieber einen Tirolerhut
der steht mir so gut
der steht mir so gut
Dann mach' ich sonntagabend Blasmusik
immer nur dasselbe Stück

Le Ciel Bleu


Le Ciel Bleu
Composer(s): G. Cassia - F. Maselli - G. Fusco L. Morisse - Daniel Gérard
Performer(s): Dalida



Le ciel bleu, ce ciel bleu
Me fait mal, loin de toi
Dans ce bleu, tout ce bleu
C'est tes yeux, que je vois

Et le temps
Lui qui nous prend
Tous nos serments
Au fond du cœur
Comme un voleur
Est bien trop beau pour moi là-haut, là-haut

Tout ce bleu, oui ce bleu
C'était nous, dans la joie
Mais il pleut, dans mes yeux
Malgré tout, ce ciel là
Ce ciel bleu, qui m'en veut
Ce ciel bleu

Beyond The Last Mile


Beyond The Last Mile
Composer(s): Rex Griffin
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb; Ray Price



I'm watching the clock tick the hours away
They say that I will hang at the dawn of the day
But why should I fear death when it's life anew
For dying only takes me much closer to you

You left me in anger and walk by the sea
And when they found your body they blamed it on me
But you know they were wrong dear so wait for awhile
Soon we'll be together Beyond The Last Mile

Stars hide their face to make way for the sun
Death it'll soon claim me and make us as one
While others are walking the streets with a smile
Then I will be walking Beyond The Last Mile

The jury agrees I have taken your life
The sentence that they gave me it cut like a knife
But I'll face my Maker today with a smile
I know that you'll be waiting Beyond The Last Mile

The chaplain is making his last plea to God
Soon the numbered steps to the scaffold I'll trod
My footsteps won't falter I'll walk with a smile
I know that you'll be waiting Beyond The Last Mile

I'm A Sentimental One


I'm A Sentimental One
Composer(s): Philip Green - Purcell
Performer(s): Jean Campbell



I'm a sentimental one, I believe in love
I like stars that shine at night, I like moons above
I'm a sentimental one, I believe in spring
April never fails to make me sing

I'm a sentimental one, dreams are down my street
I like dusk and candlelight, and my music sweet
So let me give you warning, before the harm is done
You're dealing with a sentimental one
A very, very sentimental one

Beyond The Call


Beyond The Call
Composer(s): David Batteau; Darrell Brown; Kevin Dukes
Performer(s): John Farnham



I'm searching for the anger
Consider it a gift
Open up that window
Come betray me with a kiss
You have won, if nothing else
Rope enough to hang yourself
What is that to us?

Go beyond the call of love
Beyond the dreams of man
I have seen where glory falls
At the touch of mercy's hand

The truth you would deny me
Lying like a rock
How you gonna wake up
To the one that you forgot
Cover up was your intent
Acting like it's accident
Isn't it enough

Someday when hearts grown stronger
I'll know where darkness wandered
But I won't wait much longer

Belinda (The Spindrifts)


Belinda
Performer(s): The Spindrifts



(Bop-bop-choo-wop, bop-bop-choo-wop)

Well, the first time I saw her
In a pawn shop window
She's my baby, she's my Belinda
Now she's gone
Someone threw her in the pawn
Know what I mean
You know I'm talkin `bout my horn

Well, the second time I saw her
She's my baby, she's my Belinda
I don't mean maybe
Now she's gone
Someone threw her in the pawn
Know what I mean
You know I'm talkin `bout my horn

Ooowww!

Well, the first time I saw her
In a pawn shop window
She's my baby, she's my Belinda

Well, the second time I saw her
She's my baby, she's my Belinda
I don't mean maybe
Now she's gone
Someone threw her in the pawn
Know what I mean
You know I'm talkin `bout my horn

That big ol' horn
That's what I mean
Blow man
Yeah ...

Star Of The East


Star Of The East
Composer(s): Amanda Kennedy - George Cooper
Performer(s): Judy Garland; Child So Dear



Star of the east, oh Bethlehem star
Guiding us on to heaven afar
Sorrow and grief are lulled by thy light
Now hope of each mortal in death's lonely night

Fearless and tranquil, we look up to thee
Knowing thou beams through eternity
Help us to follow where thou still dost guide
Pilgrims of earth so wide

Oh, star that leads to God above
Whose rays are peace and joy and love
Watch o'er us still till life has ceased
Beam on bright star, sweet Bethlehem star

Star of the east, thou hope of the soul
While round us here the dark billows roll
Lead us from sin to glory afar
Thou star of the east, thou sweet Bethlehem star

Ciao Amore Ciao


Ciao Amore Ciao
Composer(s): Christian Anders
Performer(s): Christian Anders



wenn tränen sprechen könnten
dann sagten sie zu mir
wir dürfen uns nicht trennen
bitte bleib bei mir
doch wir wussten beide
es war ein glück auf zeit
wir dachten nicht an morgen
und darum sag ich heut
oh
ciao amore ciao
ciao amore ciao
was uns zwei verbindet
fühlen wir genau
wenn auch unsere spuren
heut der wind verweht
ich weiss meine liebe
sie wird nie vergehen

mandolinen singen
durch die sommernacht
doch ihr lied heisst abschied
wenn der tag erwacht
morgen fährt ein zug
dich in deine welt
doch etwas bleibt in dir
das für immer zählt
oh
ciao amore ciao
du bist für mich die frau
die ich nie vergesse
ciao amore ciao
vielleicht eines tages
erfüllt sich unser traum
dann sehen wir uns wieder
ciao amore ciao

ciao amore ciao ciao amore ciao ciao amore ciao

ohohoho
ciao amore ciao
ciao amore ciao
was uns zwei verbindet
fühlen wir genau
wenn auch unsere spuren
heut der wind verweht
ich weiss meine liebe
sie wird nie vergehen
oh
ciao amore ciao
du bist für mich die frau
die ich nie vergesse
ciao amore ciao
ciao amore ciao

Something Wonderful Happens


Something Wonderful Happens
Performer(s): Nancy Wilson



When your arms caress me
Something wonderful happens
I can feel a thrill so heavenly!
When your lips possess me
Something wonderful happens
Though it rains, it's beautiful to see!

Even the showers
Can bring a thrilling refrain
A street without flowers
Becomes a garden in Spain!

Strange what love can do, dear
And 'cause I love you, dear
Something wonderful happens to me
Something wonderful happens to me!

Bevor Du Einschläfst


Bevor Du Einschläfst
Performer(s): Bernd Clüver



Tausend kleine Sterne seh'n Dich jeden Abend schlafen geh'n
Tausend kleine Sterne, die möchten Dich so gerne glücklich seh'n
Immerzu hält einer unter ihnen Wacht
daß Dich niemand kränkt und niemand traurig macht
Das sieht er genau jede Nacht

Bevor Du einschläfst, denk immer daran
daß Du mir gehörst und daß Du glücklich wirst
wie es nur irgendwie geht
Bevor Du einschläfst, vergiß bitte nie
daß ein guter Stern
über uns und uns'rer Liebe steht

Einer unter ihnen ist der kleine Stern, der Träume schenkt
Und da ist ein and'rer, der so gut er kann, Dein Schicksal lenkt
Durch Dein kleines Fenster, da schaut ein dritter rein
Und er sagt Dir leise, Du wirst glücklich sein
mit dem, der Dich liebt ganz allein

Bevor Du einschläfst, denk immer daran
daß Du mir gehörst und daß Du glücklich wirst
wie es nur irgendwie geht
Bevor Du einschläfst, vergiß bitte nie
daß ein guter Stern
über uns und uns'rer Liebe steht

Sleep, My Baby, Sleep


Sleep, My Baby, Sleep
Composer(s): Archie Pokan - Eddie Pola - Franz Vienna
Performer(s): Judy Garland & Harry Sosnick



There's an old love refrain that is known the whole world over
It's sweetness both princes and peasants may claim
Like a bird on the wing or a bee in the clover
No matter the language the song is the same

Go to sleep, my baby go to sleep
While the stars above begin to peep
They're lighting the windows of heaven
Angels watch over you from the windows of heaven

Mother's watching you too

Sleep, my baby, sleep
From the windows of heaven, mother's watching you too

Sleep, my baby, sleep

Du Bist Meine Liebe


Du Bist Meine Liebe
Performer(s): Renate Kern



Du bist meine Liebe der Tag mit dir war wunderbar
ich weiss genau, dass ich noch nie so glücklich war
Und immerzu denk ich daran
dass ich Dich nie im Leben, nie vergessen kann

Du bist meine Liebe, du, nur du allein
Nur in deiner Liebe kann ich glücklich sein

Seit jenem Tag ist viel gescheh'n
Doch sagt mein Herz mir, dass wir uns bald wiederseh'n
Bist du auch heut' wer weiss wie weit
nicht einer Stunde unserer Träume tut mir leid

Du bist meine Liebe, du, nur du allein
Nur in deiner Liebe kann ich glücklich sein
Nur in deiner Liebe kann ich glücklich sein

Betty Jo Marshall


Betty Jo Marshall
Composer(s): William Ellis - Dexter Shaffer
Performer(s): Connie Francis



Betty Jo Marshall goes to work from nine to five
Betty Jo Marshall wears a ring she had to buy
Ev'ry evenin' on the other side of town
Betty Jo Marshall becomes Lucinda Brown

Betty Jo Marshall was a hometown beauty queen
Kiss her mama then she left to chase her dream
She wrote home about the good life ev'ry day
Town folks all figured Betty Jo was on her way
[ dobro ] Now time and trouble took the fire out of her eyes
Beauty faded everytime she compromised
Cocktail parties stole the rose out of her cheek
And left a common face of ninety bucks a week

And there were no fur jackets on a secretary's pay
Betty Jo knew she'd have to go back home someday
How could she face up to those she'd left behind
And all those letters full of lies that she had signed

Clothes and money were the least she could expect
And pay was good down at the local discotech
Name and address just in case the man comes round
New York City and my name's Lucinda Brown
[ dobro ] So Betty Jo Marshall sacrifice her high ideals
All across the pain Lucinda Brown conceals
Did she dare give up her job from nine to five
And if she did how long would Lucy Brown survive

Now Betty Jo Marshall made the papers yesterday
Go go dancer found floatin' in the bay
Local beauty will be brought back to home town
Betty Jo Marshall victim of Lucinda Brown
Betty Jo Marshall victim of Lucinda Brown

Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered


Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered
Composer(s): Lorenz Hart; Richard Rodgers
Performer(s): Mel Tormé
and various other artists



After one whole quart of brandy
Like a daisy I’m awake
With no Bromer Seltzer handy
I don’t even shake

Men are not a new sensation
I’ve done pretty well I think
But this half pint imitation
Put me on the blink

I'm wild again, beguiled again
A whimpering, simpering child again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I

Couldn't sleep, wouldn't sleep
When love came and told me, I shouldn't sleep
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I

I lost my heart, but what of it, he is cold I agree
He might laugh, but I love it, although the laugh's on me

I'll sing to him, bring spring to him
And long, for the day when I'll cling to him
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I

He’s a fool and don’t I know it
But a fool can have his charms
I’m in love and don’t I know it
Like a babe in arms

Love’s the same old sad sensation
Lately I’ve not slept a wink
Since this half pint imitation
Put me on the blink

I’ve sinned a lot, I mean a lot
But I’m like sweet seventeen a lot
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I

I’ll sing to him, each spring to him
And worship the trousers that cling to him
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I

When he talks, he is seeking
Words to get off his chest
Horizontally speaking
He’s at his very best

Vexed again, perplexed again
Thank god I can be oversexed again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I

Wise at last, my eyes at last
Are cutting you down to your size at last
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - no more

Burned a lot but learned a lot
And now you are broke so you earned a lot
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - no more

Couldn’t eat, was dyspeptic
Life was so hard to bear
Now my heart’s antiseptic
Since you moved out of there

Romance finis
Your chance finis
Those ants that invaded my pants finis
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - no more

È La Pioggia Che Va


È La Pioggia Che Va
((Adapted from: Remember The Rain (Bob Lind) - 1966))
Composer(s): Bob Lind - Mogol
Performer(s): The Rokes - 1966
and multiple other artists



Sotto una montagna di paure e di ambizioni
c'è nascosto qualche cosa che non muore
Se cercate in ogni sguardo dietro un muro di cartone
troverete tanta luce e tanto amore

Il mondo ormai sta cambiando
e cambierà di più
ma non vedete nel cielo
quelle macchie di blu
è la pioggia che va
e ritorna il sereno

Quante volte ci hanno detto sorridendo tristemente
le speranze dei ragazzi sono fumo
Sono stanchi di lottare e non credono più a niente
proprio adesso che la meta è qui vicino

Ma noi che stiamo correndo
avanzeremo di più
ma non vedete che il cielo
ogni giorno diventa più blu
è la pioggia che va
e ritorna il sereno
è la pioggia che va
(e ritorna il sereno)

Non importa se qualcuno sul cammino della vita
sarà preda dei fantasmi del passato
il denaro ed il potere sono trappole mortali
che per tanto e tanto tempo han funzionato

Rote Rosen, Rote Lippen, Roter Wein


Rote Rosen, Rote Lippen, Roter Wein
Performer(s): René Carol



Sind die weißen Segel gesetzt
Fahren wir jetzt, fahren wir jetzt
Sind die schlanken Boote soweit
Sind sie zur Fahrt bereit

Rote Rosen, rote Lippen, roter Wein
Und Italiens blaues Meer im Sonnenschein
Rote Rosen, rote Lippen, roter Wein
Laden uns ein, laden uns ein
Rote Rosen, rote Lippen, roter Wein
Laden uns ein, laden uns ein

Denn wenn die Sterne stehn
Ist Italien doppelt schön
Wenn die Nacht herniederfällt
Vergißt man die Welt
Denn wenn die Sonne sinkt
Und das Lied der Lieder klingt
Ist schon bald die große Macht
Der Liebe erwacht

Remember The Rain


Remember The Rain
Composer(s): Marvin Smith



We used to play out in the rain
Your mother scolded us
She said that we were bad
(She said that we were bad)

I thought I better go on home
You watched till I was gone
Ooh, girl, you looked so sad

I picked you up when you fell
And cut your knee
I told you not to cry
And held you close to me

As I was running
Through the storm
To get my umbrella
(Think about it....)

I stopped in shock
When I saw you with
Another fellow, oh, wow

Can you remember the rain
Can you remember the rain
You left me for somebody else
Now I must face life by myself

You broke so many rules in school
I took the blame for you
I guess I was the fool

You used to sneak me notes in class
I winked my eye and laughed
Those days went by so fast

I heard remarks
That tore us all apart
I'm still trying to put back
The pieces to my heart

And I'll be crying your name, girl
Until my very last breath
(Think about it....)

'Cause my existence without you
Ain't nothing but a little death
Gosh

Can you remember the rain
Can you remember the rain

You left me for somebody else
Now I must face life by myself

Can you remember the rain
(Think about it....)
Can you remember the rain
(Think about it....)

Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby
(Can you remember the rain)
Baby, baby, baby, baby.....
