Maman La Plus Belle Du Monde
Maman La Plus Belle Du Monde
((Adapted from: La Più Bella Del Mondo (by Marino Marini) - 1957))
Composer(s): Marino Marini - Fernand Bonifay
Performer(s): Luis Mariano - 1958
and multiple other artists
Maman, Maman jolie
Maman tu es la plus belle du monde
Aucune autre à la ronde n'est plus jolie
Tu as pour moi, avoue que c'est étrange
Le visage d'un ange du paradis
Dans tous mes voyages
J'ai vu des paysages
Mais rien ne vaut l'image
De tes beaux cheveux blancs
Tu es, Maman, la plus belle du monde
Et ma joie est profonde
Lorsqu'à mon bras
Maman, tu mets ton bras
Maman tu es la plus belle du monde
Car tant d'amour inonde tes jolis yeux
Pour toi, c'est vrai, je suis malgré mon âge
Le petit enfant sage des jours heureux
J'avais fait des rêves
Où l'on m'aimait sans trève
Mais les rêves s'achèvent
Et toi seule m'est restée
Maman tu est la plus belle du monde
Et lorsque tout s'effondre autour de moi
Maman, toi tu es là!>

On Top Of Old Smokey
On Top Of Old Smokey
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Bing Crosby;
and various other artists
On top of old Smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
For a courting to slow
Yes courting's a pleasure
And parting is grief
And a false hearted lover
Is worse than a thief
She'll kiss you, she'll hug you
And tell you more lies
Than the cross ties on a railroad
Or the stars in the sky
Let me tell you 'bout my baby
She's like bad brandy wine
The first time I kissed her
She drove me out my mind
She's a Baltimore special
Got a fine brown frame
When you see her in motion
Evil woman is her name
Did I tell you 'bout the Eastman
Lord what a shame
He run off with my baby
And scandalized my name
Well I went up on a mountain top
To call my baby back
She was gone with that Eastman
Down that lonesome railroad track
If I ever see that Eastman
I'll shoot him with my gun
I'll cut him with my long Jones
And dare that pimp to run
Little Liza, little Liza
I couldn't sleep last night
Come on back home baby
Everything will be all right
Let me tell you, let me tell you
I don't care what you say
If my woman ever comes back
I'll give my life away
If you ever see a dark cloud
A-rollin' in the sky
It's my woman gone to heaven
With a tear drop in her eye
On top of old Smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
For a-courting to slow

A Glee At Christmas
A Glee At Christmas
(Traditional)
't Is Christmas now! 't Is Christmas now!
When Cato's self would laugh
And smoothing forth his wrinked brow
Give liberty to quaff
To dance and sing, to sport and play
For every hour's a holiday
And for the twelve days, let them pass
In mirth and jollity
The time doth call each lad and lass
That will be blythe and free
To dance and sing, to sport and play
For every hour's a holiday
And from the rising of the sun
To the setting, cast off cares
't Is time enough when twelve is done
To think of our affairs
To dance and sing, to sport and play
For every hour's a holiday

On This Night Of A Thousand Stars
On This Night Of A Thousand Stars
Composer(s): Andrew Lloyd Webber
Performer(s): Mark Ryan;
and various other artists
Che: Now Eva Peron had every disadvantage
You need if you're gonna succeed
No money no cash no father no bright lights
There was nowhere she'd been at the age of 15
As this Tango singer found out
Augustin Magaldi
Who has the distinction of being the first
Man to be of use to Eva Duarte
Magaldi: On this night of a thousand stars
Let me take you to Heaven's door
Where the music of love's guitars
Plays forevermore
In the glow of those twinkling lights
We shall love through eternity
On this night in a million nights
Fly away with me
I never dreamed that a kiss could be as sweet as this
Now I know that it can
I used to wander alone without a love of my own
I was a desperate man
But all my grief disappeard and all the sorrow I feared
Wasn't there anymore
On that magical day when you first came my way
Mi amor
On this night
On this night
On this night of a thousand stars
Let me take you to Heaven's door
Where the music of love's guitars
Plays forevermore

Meet Me In St. Louis
Meet Me In St. Louis
Composer(s): Kerry Mills; Andrew B. Sterling
Performer(s): Judy Garland;
Cinematic Creations; Guy Lombardo
When Louis came home to the flat
He hung up his coat and his hat
He gazed all around, but no wifey he found
So he said "where can Flossie be at?"
A note on the table he spied
He read it just once, then he cried
It ran, "Louis dear, it's too slow for me here
So I think I will go for a ride"
"Meet me in St. Louis, Louis
Meet me at the fair
Don't tell me the lights are shining
any place but there
We will dance the Hoochee Koochee
I will be your tootsie wootsie
If you will meet in St. Louis, Louis
Meet me at the fair"
"Meet me in St. Louis, Louis
Meet me at the fair
Don't tell me the lights are shining
any place but there
We will dance the Hoochee Koochee
I will be your tootsie wootsie
If you will meet in St. Louis, Louis
Meet me at the fair"
The dresses that hung in the hall
Were gone, she had taken them all
She took all his rings and the rest of his things
The picture he missed from the wall
"What! moving!" the janitor said
"Your rent is paid three months ahead"
"What good is the flat?" said poor Louis, "Read that"
And the janitor smiled as he read

On The Wings Of Love
Composer(s): Jeffrey Osborne; Peter Schless
Performer(s): Jeffrey Osborne;
and various other artists
Just smile for me and let the day begin
You are the sunshine that lights my heat within
I'm sure that you're an angel in disguise
Come take my hand and together we will rise
On the wings of love
Up and above the clouds
The only way to fly
Is on the wings of love
On the wings of love
Only the two of us
Together flying high
Flying high Upon the wings of love
You look at me and I begin to melt
Just like the snow when a ray of sun is felt
I'm crazy bout ya baby can't you see
I'd be delighted if you could come with me
On the wings of love
Up and above the clouds
The only way to fly
Is on the wings of love
On the wings of love
Only the two of us
Together flying high
Flying high Upon the wings of love
Yes you belong to me
I'm yours exclusively
Right now we live and breathe Each other
Insepreble it seems,
We're flowing like a stream
Running free flowing
On the wings of love
On the wings of love
Up and above the clouds
The only way to fly
Is on the wings of love
On the wings of love
Only the two of us
Together flying high
Together flying high
On the wings of love
Up and above the clouds
The only way to fly
Is on the wings of love
On the wings of love
Only the two of us
Together flying high
Together flying high
Upon the wings of love

Meet Me In Bubble Land
Meet Me In Bubble Land
Composer(s): Casper Nathan; Joe Manne; Isham Jones
I've been dreaming dreams of childhood
And the games we used to play
When my heart knew only sunshine
That was shining thro' the live-long day
Now I know my constant dreaming
Always takes me back to yesterday
If your heart is yearning
Join me in returning, come, and I will show you the way
You can make this wond'rous journey
Go to Bubble Land tonight
Only you must be real certain
Your heart's beating in a way that's right
Bubble land was made for lovers
Those who'd leave their grieving far behind
There is no despair there
Pleasure's everywhere there, joy's the only thing that you'll find
Meet me tonight in Bubble Land
So far away from Trouble Land
Where there is lots of joy
That is waiting for each girl and boy
Hearts break like bubbles in the air
But there we'll never know a care
Let all our troubles fade like bubbles
Meet me in Bubble Land

On The Wings Of A Nightingale
Composer(s): Paul McCartney
Performer(s): The Everly Brothers;
Kim & The Hurmio; The Spongetones
When I love, I get a feeling
Like I'm traveling through the sky
On the wings of a nightingale
As I ride, my head is reeling
And I don't even wonder why
On the wings of a nightingale I'll fly
I'll go land and sea
I'll be thinking of you and me
Couldn't ask for a better place to be
Oh, I can feel something happening
Oh, I can feel something happening
Oh, I can feel something happening to me
So hold my hand, I got a feeling
That the journey has just begun
On the wings of a nightingale
And if you like we'll fly together
To the land of eternal sun
On the wings of a nightingale of love
I'll go land and sea
I'll be thinking of you and me
Couldn't ask for a better place to be
Oh, I can feel something happening
Oh, I can feel something happening
Oh, I can feel something happening to me
When I love, I get a feeling
Like I'm traveling through the sky
On the wings of a nightingale
On the wings of a nightingale
Oooh oooh oooh
On the wings of a nightingale

Meet Me Half Way
Meet Me Half Way
Composer(s): Giorgio Moroder; Tom Whitlock
Performer(s): Kenny Loggins; Sunset Pops Orch.
In a lifetime
Made of memories
I believe
In destiny
Every moment returns again in time
When I've got the future on my mind
Know that you'll be the only one
Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Out where the world belongs
to only you and I
Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Make this a new beginning of another life
In a lifetime
There is only love
Reaching for the lonely one
We are stronger when we are given love
When we put emotions on the line
Know that we are the timeless ones
Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Out where the world belongs
to only you and I
Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Make this a new beginning of another life
Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Out where the world belongs
to only you and I
Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Make this a new beginning of another life

On The Way Home
On The Way Home
Composer(s): Neil Young
Performer(s): Buffalo Springfield;
and various other artists
When the dream came
I held my breath with my eyes closed
I went insane
Like a smoke ring day
When the wind blows
Now I won't be back till later on
If I do come back at all
But you know me, and I miss you now
In a strange game
I saw myself as you knew me
When the change came
And you had a
Chance to see through me
Though the other side is just the same
You can tell my dream is real
Because I love you, can you see me now
Though we rush ahead to save our time
We are only what we feel
And I love you, can you feel it now

Meditation
Meditation
Composer(s): Norman Gimbel;
Antonio Carlos Jobim; Newton Mendonça
Performer(s): Doris Day
and various other artists
In my loneliness
When you're gone and I'm all by myself
And I need your caress
I just think of you
And the thought of you holding me near
Makes my loneliness soon disappear
Though you're far away
I have only close my eyes, and you are back to stay
I just close my eyes
And the sadness that missing you brings
Soon is gone and this heart of mine sings
Yes, I love you so, and that for me is all I need to know
I will wait for you
'Til the sun falls from out of the sky, for what else can I do?
I will wait for you
Meditating how sweet life will be when you come back to me

On The Trail
On The Trail
Composer(s): Harold Adamson; Ferde Grofé
Performer(s): Frankie Laine;
and various other artists
(Hee-hop, hee-hop, mule)
(Hop-hee-hop, hee-hop)
The stubbornest mule I ever saw
He's tossin' his head, he's raisin' ol' Ned
He's gettin' me all of a twitter
That ornery critter, he goes
He must have been born in Arkansas
Don't want to be led, he wants to be fed
Why he'd make the Statue of Liberty
Flibberty-gibberty
He's hankerin' for a hunk of straw
He can't hear my song, he's joggin' along
His footsteps that are beating, are tellin' him soon
He'll be eatin' his fill
(Clipperty-hopperti, clipperty-clop)
(Clipperty-hopperti, clipperty-clop)
(Clipperty-hopperti)
Over the rim of the hill
We're on the trail
The sun is low, the canyon is wide
Hi-ee, hi-oo
We sing a song as we ride
We're on the trail
My mule and I, we haven't a care
Hi-ee, hi-oo
My heart is free as the air
Out on the ole painted desert
I know a wonderful site
Where we can build us a fire
Where we can spend the night
The sun will rise
And in the skies, the stars grow pale
Hi-ee, hi-oo
And we'll be back on the trail
Be back on the trail, the trail, the trail

Meanwhile
Meanwhile
Composer(s): Glenn Shorrock
Performer(s): Glenn Shorrock
Looked at my window for Robinson Crusoe
all I can see is Daniel Defoe
everyone movin' in different directions
I don't know which way I can go, tell me
Now I like the blues and I like cathedrals
I like the ladies' hands on my knee
I don't care what you think of my music
I sure care a lot what you think about me
Meanwhile, the man inside me rages
he's tryin' to be free, you know he tryin' to be released
Meanwhile, clean out your cages
the nearer you're gonna get, the closer you're gonna be
the nearer you'll get, the closer you'll be
the nearer you'll get, the closer you'll be
the nearer you get ... the closer you'll be
I like the blues, and I like the Beatles
I like the ladies' hands on my knee
I don't care what you think of my music
I sure care a lot what you think about me
Meanwhile, the man inside me rages
he's trying to be free, you know he's tryin' to be released
Meanwhile, clean out your cages
the nearer you're gonna get, the closer you're gonna be
the nearer you'll get, the closer you'll be
the nearer you'll get, the closer you'll be
the nearer you get ... the closer you'll be

On The Sunny Side Of The Street
On The Sunny Side Of The Street
Composer(s): Dorothy Fields; Jimmy McHugh
Performer(s): Jo Stafford;
and various other artists
Grab your coat and get your hat
Leave your worry on the doorstep
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
Can't you hear a pitterpat?
And that happy tune is your step
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street
I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But I'm not afraid
This rover crossed over
If I never have a cent
I'll be rich as Rockefeller
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street

Meaning Of The Blues
Meaning Of The Blues
Composer(s): Leah Worth; Bobby Troup
Originally performed by: Julie London
Covered by various other artists
Blue was just the color of the sea
Till my lover left me
Blue was just a bluebird in a tree
Till he said "Forget me"
Blue always made me think of summer
Cloudless summer skies so fresh and warm
But now the blue I see is more like winter
Winter skies with clouds about to storm
Blue was just the color of his eyes
Till he said "Goodbye, love"
Blue was just a ribbon for first prize
Till he said, "Don't cry, love"
And blues were only torch songs
Fashioned for impulsive ingénues
But now I know, too well I know
Too well I know the meaning of the blues

Mama, You Been On My Mind
Mama, You Been On My Mind ((aka Baby You've Been On My Mind (Linda Ronstadt) - 1969))
((Swedish Version: Jag Har Tänkt På Dej (by Mikael Wiehe) - 2004))
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
First release by: Bob Dylan - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat
An' cov'rin' the crossroads I'm standing at
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
But mama, you been on my mind
I don't mean trouble, please don't put me down or get upset
I am not pleadin' or sayin', "I can't forget"
I do not walk the floor bowed down an' bent, but yet
Mama, you been on my mind
Even though my mind is hazy an' my thoughts they might be narrow
Where you been don't bother me nor bring me down in sorrow
It don't even matter to me where you're wakin' up tomorrow
But mama, you're just on my mind
I am not askin' you to say words like "yes" or "no"
Please understand me, I got no place for you t' go
I'm just breathin' to myself, pretendin' not that I don't know
Mama, you been on my mind
When you wake up in the mornin', baby, look inside your mirror
You know I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
As someone who has had you on his mind

Composer(s): Roy Ingraham; Harry Tobias
Performer(s): Jimmie Davis; Slim Whitman
On the sunny side of the Rockies
Where the desert kissed the sea
There I left my love near the Rockies
When we said goodbye tenderly
Tho mountains are high, and we're far apart
In my dreams I'm with my sweetheart
On the sunny side of the Rockies
Where the desert kissed the sea
