Si Tu Penses
Si Tu Penses
((Adapted from: Little Town Flirt (by Del Shannon) - 1962))
Composer(s): Marion McKenzie - Del Shannon - Eddy Mitchell
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell - 1963
Si tu penses (si tu penses) encore à moi (si tu penses)
Si tu te lances dans la vie sans moi
Réfléchis sur l'avenir, revis avec tes souvenirs
Si tu penses, hey, oh, oh, hey you... à moi
Si tu y penses, ne m'oublie pas
Je sais bien (je sais bien) que notre amour (je sais bien)
N'était rien, mais peut-être qu'un jour
Tu regretteras ce temps, souviens-toi, tu m'aimais tant
Si tu penses, hey, oh, oh, hey you... à moi
Si tu y penses, ne m'oublie pas
Si tu penses du mal de moi, si mes avances n'aboutissent pas
Tu ne me feras pas de peine, je peux bien vivre sans toi
Même si tu penses à moi (à moi, moi, moi)
Quand je pense (si tu penses) encore à toi (si tu penses)
Il me semble que tu reviendras
Ne crois surtout pas que je tente de te ramener vers moi
Si tu penses, hey, oh, oh, hey you... à moi
Si tu y penses, ne m'oublie pas, oh, oh, oh (si tu penses)

Making Love In The Afternoon
Making Love In The Afternoon
Performer(s): Karen Carpenter
Makin' love in the afternoon
Makin' love to another Beatle tune
And I know you're feelin' the same way too
All alone on a sunny day
On our own and we had to get away
And I know that I couldn't live without you
Don't ever leave me alone
Baby without you, I'd never make it alone
Makin' love on a sunny day
Makin' love in a very special way
And I hope you're feelin' the way I do
When you're here, when you're next to me
When you're near its the only place to be
'Cause I know that I couldn't live without you
Dont ever leave me alone
Livin'without you, I couldn't make it alone
Why wait for tomorrow?
Tomorrow may never come
Why wait for the evening shadows?
Something behind me, will always remind me
To wait for the morning
Knowing you'll be here soon
And then we can be together
In the afternoon
Makin' love (Makin'love)
Makin' love in the afternoon

Little Things Mean A Lot
Little Things Mean A Lot
((Danish Version: Småting Kan Sige Alt (by Gustav Winckler) - 1964))
Composer(s): Edith Lindeman - Carl Stutz
First release by: Kitty Kallen - 1954
Covered by multiple other artists
Blow me a kiss across the room
Say I look nice when I'm not
Touch my hair as you pass my chair
Little things mean a lot
Give me your arm as we cross the street
Call me at six on the dot
A line a day when you're far away
Little things mean a lot
Don't have to buy me diamonds or pearls
Champagne, sables or such
I never cared much for diamonds and pearls
'Cause honestly, honey, they just cost money
Give me your hand when I've lost my way
Give me your shoulder to cry on
Whether the day is bright or gray
Give me your heart to rely on
Send me the warmth of a secret smile
To show me you haven't forgot
For always and ever, now and forever
Little things mean a lot
Give me your hand when I've lost my way
Give me your shoulder to cry on
Whether the day is bright or gray
Give me your heart to rely on
Send me the warmth of a secret smile
To show me you haven't forgot
For always and ever, now and forever
Little things mean a lot

Making Love
Making Love
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach;
Bruce Roberts; Carole Bayer Sager
Originally performed by: Roberta Flack
Here close to our feelings we touch again
We love again
Remember when we thought
Our hearts would never mend
And we're all the better for each other
There's more to love I know
Than making love
Here no more confusion we see our lives
We live our lives
Remember when we thought
We never would survive
But now neither one of us is breaking
There's more to love I know
Than making love
Some things never change
Some things sometimes do
And now I'm feeling strong enough to let you in
And now neither one of us is breaking
Now we know there's more to love
Than making love
And I'll remember you and making love
And I'll remember you

Little Things (That Keep Us Together)
Little Things (That Keep Us Together)
Composer(s): Ady Semel - Scott Walker
First release by: Scott Walker - 1970
It's on days like these
When your brother falls
You can read it all in the Times
How a moving car
Stole a movie star
Little Things that keep us together
While the war's going on
It's on days like these
When your childhood cries
And you see it all on the news
Little children starve
Growing tired of born
Little things that keep us all close and warm
While the war's going on
Find a place you can hide
And take what you can
The time will arrive
When you need a friend
Stop looking at us
We're waving good-bye
There's a man
Shouting he's with me
When that morning comes
I can't wait to see
Just how high his eagle
On color screens
Is gonna fly
Going to fly
It's on nights like these
That your neighbor dies
'Cos he put a gun to his head
He was so alone
He had nothing left
Little things that call for a drink
That bury a soldier's death
It's on days like these
When your sister cries
And your brother falls from your hands
Jumbo jets can die
Killing 81
Little things that help us get by the why
Why the war's going on
Why the war's going on
Why the war is going on
why the war is going on
why the war's going on
why the war's going on

Making Every Minute Count
Making Every Minute Count
Composer(s): John Morier
Performer(s): Spanky & Our Gang; Keith
While you're hung up on yesterday
You got nothing going today
While you're hung up on tomorrow
All the good times are slipping away
Life is right now and if you take it
The share will be the biggest amount
There's only one way to make it
That's making every minute count
Making every minute count
Making it groovy
Making love, making it now
If you know a better way of goin'
You know you'd better show me how
With your nose pressed to the window
Life is just a mirror of your mind
You can find much more to get into
Make up your mind, baby, now is the time
Time to live life like a lover
Time to keep time from keepin' you down
Time to get it all together
Making every minute count
Making every minute count
Making it groovy
Making love, making it now
If you know a better way of goin'
You know you'd better show me how
Making every minute count
Time to live life like a lover
Time to keep time from keepin' you down
Time to get it all together
Making every minute count
Making every minute count
Making it groovy
Making love, making it now
Making every minute count
Making it groovy

Little Things
Composer(s): Bobby Goldsboro
First release by: Bobby Goldsboro - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
Little things that you do
Make me glad I'm in love with you
Little things that you say
Make me glad that I feel this way
The way you smile, the way you hold my hand
And when I'm down you always understand
You know I love those little things that I knew
The little things you whispered in my ear
I know there ain't nobody else like you
No one could do the little things you do
Little things in my ear that you say
When there's no one near
Little things that you do
Let me know that your love is true
When we walk you like to hold my hand
And when we talk you tell me I'm your man
You know I love those little things that I knew
The little things you whispered in my ear
I know there ain't nobody else like you
No one could do the little things you do
Little things that you do
Make me glad I'm in love with you
Little things that you say
Make me glad that I feel this way
When we walk you like to hold my hand
And when we talk you tell me I'm your man
You know I love those little things that I knew
The little things you whispered in my ear
I know there ain't nobody else like you
No one could do the little things you do

Making Believe
Making Believe
Composer(s): Jimmy Work
Originally performed by: Jimmy Work
Covered by various other artists
Making believe that you still love me
It's leaving me alone and so blue
I'll always dream, still I'll never own you
Making believe, is all I can do
I can't hold you close when you're not with me
Your somebody's love, you'll never be mine
Making believe, I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you, making believe
Making believe I never lost you
But my happy hours I find are so few
My plans for the future will never come true, dear
I'm making believe what else can I do

Little Sparrow
Little Sparrow
Composer(s): Dolly Parton
First release by: Dolly Parton - 2001
Covered by multiple other artists
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious, fragile, little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain
All ye maidens heed my warning
Never trust the hearts of men
They will crush you like a sparrow
Leaving you to never mend
They will vow to always love you
Swear no love but yours will do
Then they'll leave you for another
Break your little heart in two
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious, fragile, little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain
If I were a little sparrow
O'er these mountains I would fly
I would find him, I would find him
Look into his lying eyes
I would flutter all around him
On my little sparrow wings
I would ask him, I would ask him
Why he let me love in vain
I am not a little sparrow
I am just the broken dream
Of a cold false-hearted lover
And his evil cunning scheme
All ye maidens fair and tender
Never trust the hearts of men
They will crush you like a sparrow
Leaving you to never mend
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Oh, the sorrow never ends

Making A Noise
Making A Noise
Composer(s): Robbie Robertson
Performer(s): Robbie Robertson
Contact From The Underworld Of Red Boy
Everyone has a song
God gave us each a song
That's how we know who we are
Everyone has a song
We have come, heat the drum
The land trembles with dancing
We have come, bang the drum
The land trembles with dancing
Making a noise in this world
Making a noise in this world
You can bet your ass
I won't go quietly
Makin' a noise in this world
I don't want your promise
I don't want your whiskey
I don't want your blood on my hands
Only want what belongs to me
I think you thought I was gone
I think you thought I was dead
You won't admit that you was wrong
Ain't there some shit that should be said
Making a noise in this world
Making a noise in this world
You can bet your ass
I won't go quietly
Makin' a noise in this world
The Indian dancers stop and stare at him
Like he was bad weather
He keeps dancing
And knocks loose an eagle feather
The drums stop
This is the kind of silence that frightens white men
Making a noise in this world
Making a noise in this world
You can bet your ass
I won't go quietly
Makin' a noise in this world
(No Indians allowed)

Little Snow Girl
Little Snow Girl
Composer(s): Robert Arthur
Performer(s): Lorrie Morgan
Little snow girl, little snow girl
See the white snow, see it falling
Listen closely someone's calling
Someone's calling out to you
It's the snow man, it's the snow man
See him beckon, hear him sing out
Little snow girl come and play now
Won't you come and play with me
For he see's you with his eyes of coal
And he loves you with his heart and soul
No man ever loved no girl
Like the snow man loves his snow girl
When the spring comes it stops snowing
And the snow man must be going
Little snow girl wipe away that tear
He'll be coming back to you next year ...

Making A Fool Of Myself
Making A Fool Of Myself
Composer(s): Sims
Performer(s): Jimmy Messene
Life is so funny but what can you do
You’re either happy or blue
You ask for sunshine but you get rain
You love a someone but all in vain
I’m making a fool of myself
Loving a someone that loves someone else
I’m putting myself on the shelf
Pining for someone that loves someone else
Is it worth it, I ask
And though my lips say no
Deep in my heart, though, I know
That I shall always keep on
Baby, I’m making a fool of myself
Loving a someone that loves someone else
I’m making, making a fool of myself
Loving a someone that loves someone else

Little sister, don't you
Little sister, don't you kiss me once or twice
And say it's very nice and then you run
Little sister, don't you do what your big sister done
Well I dated your big sister
And I took her to the show
I went for some candy
Along came Jim Dandy
And they snuck right out the door
Little sister, don't you
Little sister, don't you
Little sister, don't you kiss me once or twice
And say it's very nice and then you run
Little sister, don't you do what your big sister done
Everytime I see your sister
Well she's got somebody new
She's mean and she's evil
Like a little old boll weevil
Guess I'll try my love with you, ah
Little sister, don't you
Little sister, don't you
Little sister, don't you kiss me once or twice
And say it's very nice and then you run
Little sister, don't you do what your big sister done
Well, I used to pull your pigtails
And pinch your turned up nose
But you've been a-growin'
And baby it's been showin'
From your head down to your toes
Little sister, don't you
Little sister, don't you
Little sister, don't you kiss me once or twice
And say it's very nice and then you run
Little sister, don't you do what your big sister done
Little sister, don't you do what your big sister done
Little sister, don't you do what your big sister done

Makin' Whoopee
Makin' Whoopee
Composer(s): Gus Kahn; Walter Donaldson
Originally performed by: Eddie Cantor
Covered by various other artists
Another bride, another June
Another sunny honeymoon
Another season, another reason
For makin' whoopee
A lot of shoes, a lot of rice
The groom is nervous, he answers twice
Its really killin' that he's so willin'
To make whoopee
Picture a little love nest
Down where the roses cling
Picture the same sweet love nest
Think what a year can bring
He's washin dishes and baby clothes
He's so ambitious he even sews
But don't forget folks
Thats what you get folks, for makin' whoopee
He doesn't make much money
Five thousand dollars per
Some judge who thinks he's funny
Says, "You pay six to her"
He says, "Now judge, suppose I fail?"
The judge says, "Budge, right into jail
You'd better keep her
I think it's cheaper
Than making whoopee"

Little Pal, if Daddy Goes away
Promise you'll be good from day to day
Do as Mother says and never sin

What I couldn't be, Little Pal
I want you to be, Little Pal
I want you to laugh and to sing and to play
And be good to Mother while Daddy's away
Each night how I'll pray, Little Pal
That you'll turn out right, Little Pal
So till we meet again
Heaven knows where or when
Pray for me now and then, Little Pal

Ever since I gave you my ring, girl
We just don't seem, seem to get along

Why can't we stick together, girl?
'Cause it just ain't fair (just ain't fair)
No it just ain't fair (just ain't fair)
No it just ain't fair
To our hearts, girl (just ain't fair)
To keep them apart, girl (just ain't fair)
No it just ain't fair (just ain't fair)
No it just ain't fair (just ain't fair)
So let's stop makin' up and breakin' up and makin' up again
Let's live our lives while we can

(Together) while we can
One day we're so, so in love, girl
The next day it's all gone
I know I love you, girl, and I know you care

If You Could Touch Her At All
If You Could Touch Her At All
Composer(s): Lee Clayton
Performer(s): Waylon Jennings
and multiple other artists
Funny a woman can come on so wild and free
Yet insist I don't watch her undress or watch her watch me
And stand by the bed and shiver as if she were cold
Just to lie down beside me and touch me as if I were gold
One night of love don't make up for six nights alone
I'd rather have one than none
Lord, I'm flesh and bone
Though sometimes it seems she ain't worth the trouble at all
She can be worth the world if somehow you can touch her at all
Right or wrong a woman can own any man
She can take him inside her and hold his soul in her hand
Then leave him as weary and weak as a newborn child
Fighting to get his first breath and open his eyes
One night of love...

Makin' The Best Of A Bad Situation
Makin' The Best Of A Bad Situation
Composer(s): Dick Feller
Performer(s): Dick Feller;
Ray Stevens; Tom Jones
Now, I know a man, he's a hard workin' man
He gets up real early, and he goes down town
And about fifteen minutes after he's been gone
There's a big milk truck pulls up on the lawn
And that milkman rushes up to the door
Where that man's wife is waitin' in a kimono
And she plants a big ol' kiss on his cheek and they go inside
And that truck never moves for an hour or two
Well it's none of my business
One day I called him aside and told him what was goin' on
While he was gone
And he said, "Well I guess that's so, but do you know
We're never outta' milk or cottage cheese or yogurt, ice cream, or
none of them other cowy things"
I guess he's makin' the best of a bad situation
Don't wanta make waves, can't you see
He's just makin' the best of a bad situation
Reckon I'd do the same if it was me
Now I know a man, he's an educated man
He's an alligator wrestler
He jumps right in there and grabs them long green boogers
By whatever you grab them long green boogers by...
Well, one day he's got a full Nelson on this big alligator
When this other alligator sneaks up and bites his right ear plumb off
Didn't bat an eye, just crawled off in the shade and went to sleep
The alligator not the man
Well, it's none of my business
One day I said, "Well, it's sure too bad about that little accident that you had
'Cause now your hat's gonna fall down over your eyes
And you can't ever be gypsy
'Cause you don't have no place to wear a gold earring"
He just looked me right straight in the eye and said, "Huh?"
I guess he's makin' the best of a bad situation
Don't wanna make waves, can't you see
He's just makin' the best of a bad situation
Reckon I'd do the same if it was me
Now I know a lady, she's a mighty fine lady
Got a heart of gold, she wouldn't harm a fly
She's just tryin' to get by and keep her house in order
But you know that her husband
He worked so hard that he come unglued
He come unwrapped, he just snapped, thinks he's a chicken
That's right, one of them cackling Colonel Sanders' types
He roosts in the bush by the side of the house
Well it's none of my business but one day I said
"Have you ever thought about findin' him a doctor who could make him well"
And she said "Well, I have now and then, but then again
He don't eat much, just chickenfeed
And all that peckin' in the ground don't hurt nothin'
Heaven knows, we can use the eggs"
I guess she's makin' the best of a bad situation
Don't wanna make waves, can't you see
She's just makin' the best of a bad situation
Reckon I'd do the same if it was me
We're all just makin' the best of a bad situation
We're all in this together you and me
