Once I Was
Once I Was
Composer(s): Larry Beckett; Tim Buckley
Performer(s): Tim Buckley; Eric Andersen; Tram
Once I was a soldier
And I fought on foreign sands for you
Once I was a hunter
And I brought home fresh meat for you
Once I was a lover
And I searched behind your eyes for you
And soon there'll be another
To tell you I was just a lie
And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you remember me
And though you have forgotten
All of our rubbish dreams
I find myself searching
Through the ashes of our ruins
For the days when we smiled
And the hours that ran wild
With the magic of our eyes
And the silence of our words
And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you remember me

A Christmas Letter
A Christmas Letter
Composer(s): Gene Nelson - John Greenebaum - Paul Nelson
Performer(s): Reba McEntire
At an antique desk an old man sits alone
Oh, it's Christmas Eve and it's almost time to go
He signs his name to a letter he just wrote
Then he reads it back with a voice as soft as snow
I want peace on Earth for Christmas
In a world where there's not one hungry child
A day when hope and faith conquers fear and hate
All I'm asking for is a little more love
Then he walks outside and climbs upon his sleigh
And calls out to his reindeer, then off they fly away
Oh, tonight he'll make a million dreams appear
While he wishes that his own dreams could come true this year
I want peace on Earth for Christmas
In a world where there's not one hungry child
A day when hope and faith conquers fear and hate
All I'm asking for is a little more love
A day when hope and faith just conquers fear and hate
All I'm asking for is a little more love

Meglio Per Te Se Piangi
Meglio Per Te Se Piangi
French Title: Rentre Chez Toi Et Pleure
Composer(s): Calabrese; Charles Aznavour; Gilbert Bécaud
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Meglio per te se piangi
Io ho pianto già per te
Non sai per quante ore
Ho portato con me
Il ricordo di te
Meglio per te se piangi
Il pianto ti calmerà
Attenuerà il dolore
E lo cancellerà
Pena d'amore è breve
Ombra sottile e lieve
Che si allontanerà da te
Meglio per te se piangi
Il pianto ti calmerà
E dopo tanto dolore
Da me ti guiderà
Meglio per te spiangi
Piangi, piangi...

Once BittenTwice Shy
Once Bitten Twice Shy
Composer(s): Ian Hunter
Performer(s): Ian Hunter;
and various other artists
Well the time's gettin' hard for you little girl
I'm a hummin' and a strummin' all over God's world
you don't remember when you got your last meal
and you forgot just how a woman feels
you didn't know what rock n' roll was
until you met a drummer on a Greyhound bus
I got there in the nick of time
before he got his hands across your state line
well in the middle of the night
on the open road
and the heater don't work and it's oh-so cold
you're gettin' tired, you're lookin' kinda beat
the music of the street, drive you off your feet
you didn't know how rock n' roll looked
until you caught your sister with a guy from the group
half-way home in the parking lot
by the look in her eyes she was givin' what she got
Once bitten twice shy, babe
Woman you're a mess gonna die in your sleep
all the blood on my hand and my Les Paul heat
I can't leave you home cos you're runnin' around
my best friend told me you're the best trick in town
You didn't know that rock n' roll burned
so you bought a candle and you loved and you learned
you got the rhythm, you got the speed
mamma's little baby likes it short and sweet
Once bitten twice shy, babe
I didn't know ya got a rock n' roll record
until a saw your picture on another guy's jacket
you told me I was the only one
and look at you now, well it's dark as it's dumb
Once bitten twice shy, babe

Once A Day
Once A Day
Composer(s): Bill Anderson
Performer(s): Bill Anderson;
and various other artists
When you found somebody new
I thought I never would
Forget you, for I thought then I never could
But time has taken all the pain away
Until now, I'm down to hurtin' once a day
Once a day, all day long
And once a night, from dusk 'til dawn
The ony time, I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day, everyday, all day long
I'm so glad that I'm not like a friend I knew one time
He(she)lost the one he(she)loved, then slowly lost her mind
He(she) sat around and cried his (her) life away
Lucky me, I'm only crying once a day
Once a day, all day long
And once a night, from dusk 'til dawn
The only time, I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day, every day, all day long
The only time, I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day, everyday, all day long

Smashed up, cut up, 1000 pieces

A Christmas Love Song
A Christmas Love Song
Composer(s): Alan Bergman - Marilyn Bergman - Johnny Mandel
Performer(s): Blossom Dearie & Mike Rienzi
and multiple other artists
All I want for Christmas is you
You're the gift that's made my dreams all come true
All I need for Christmas is here
Finding every sweet surprise wrapped up in your eyes
Waiting there for me
Underneath the tree
We'll spend the day
Exchanging kisses
Smile and say
"What a Christmas this is"
Long before the snowflakes appear
Without bells and mistletoe
Or the tinsel's silver glow
You just look at me and oh - Christmas is here
Long before the snowflakes appear
Without bells and mistletoe
Or the tinsel's silver glow
You just look at me and oh - Christmas is here

Meet The Family
Meet The Family
From the Show: The Crooked Mile, 1959
Composer(s): Greenwell; Wildeblood
Performer(s): Millicent Martin & Elisabeth Welch
If a man gets the idea that you’re flippety-jibbedy
And starts gettin’ ready to take a diabolical liberty
If he gives you a line you’re not keen on swallowing
Give him an old-fashioned look
And repeat the following
(Chorus)
Ta, ever so, ever so ta
That was a lovely compliment
But please remember, I’m a lady
And you’re supposed to be a gent
No, we cannot make it a date
I’m too young to stop out late
But please, tomorrow come to tea
And meet the family
Dear ol’ dad’s an all-in wrestler
Weighing-in at nineteen stones
Brother Bill’s a bonnie builder
And his hobby’s breaking bones
Sister Mona tears a phone book
Into little tiny shreds
Come along and meet ‘em
Come along and greet ‘em
They’re a family of thoroughbreds
(Chorus)
There’s a bloodhound in the kitchen
Hasn’t had a bite all day
Uncle Arthur’s back in Dartmoor
Auntie’s with the I.R.A
Grandma’s digging in the cellar
No-one knows where grandpa is
They’re a lot of smasher
Bruisers, boozers, bashers
They’re a family of savages
(Chorus)
Come along and meet ‘em
Come along and greet ‘em
Meet the family

A Christmas Prayer
Composer(s): Marty Robbins
Performer(s): Marty Robbins
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Dear Lord, I want to thank you
For what you've done for me
For all these many blessings
In a world that's caught in grief and misery
No matter where I wander
I'm always in your sight
And so, my friends, to you my love
Upon this Christmas night
If all my prayers aren't answered
Then, Lord, I'll understand
There's others more deserving
Others, Lord, who need a helping hand
I pray you'll guide and keep me
Ever near the light
And so my deepest thanks, my Lord
Upon this Christmas night

Meet Me Where They Play The Blues
Meet Me Where They Play The Blues
Composer(s): Steve Allen; Sandy Gallop
Performer(s): Andy Williams
and various other artists
I got a heart that’s broken hearted, how do I mend it?
I got a cryin’ jack you started, how do I end it?
But if you’re feelin’ gloomy
Come a-runnin’ to me
Meet me where they play the blues
Hey, people have said they’ve seen you dance in hideaway places
Say, people have said you find romance in others’ embraces
But if your mood is dreamy
And you care to see me
Meet me where they play the blues
Either flirt with a tear, are common round here
And misery loves company, they say
So I hang around till dawn
While that saxophone wails on
Hopin’ you’ll happen this way
I’m getting’ tired of sippin’ wine, and watchin’ bubbles
Why did I dream, get outa line, and wind up in trouble
Mmm, but Honey, if you’re learnin’
There’s a flame still burnin’
Meet me where they play the blues
Blee beep, blee beep, blee bee, bee, bee, bee, bee, bee,
Meet me where they play ...
The blues

On Va Dire Que C'Est Moi
On Va Dire Que C'Est Moi
Composer(s): Claude Moine; Pierre Papadiamandis
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell
Si un train n'est pas à l'heure
Qu'un' princesse divorce et pleure
J' culpabilis', c'est certain
Même si j'sais qu' j'suis pour rien
Tu vas dire qu' c'est moi
Allez on va dire qu' c'est moi
Qui ne s'intéresse à rien?
Stoïque comme un nain d'jardin
Qui fait de l'ombre à ton bonheur?
Une pierre à la place du cœur
On va dire qu' c'est moi
Allez on va dire qu' c'est moi
C'est sûr, j'suis pas sur le coup
J'suis distrait, j'pense pas à tout
Pas l'eau à tous les étages
Même si j'atteins la limite d'âge
Un ado daté
Un rocker déprimé
Ça t'arrange de m'voir comm' ça
Bon... allez on va dire qu' c'est moi
Instrumental
C'est sûr, j'suis pas sur le coup
J'suis discret, j'oublie surtout
Les choses pouvant m'faire du mal
J'tiens pas compte de mon signe astral
Un ado daté
Teenager attardé
Ça t'arrange de m'voir comme ça
Bon... allez on va dire que c'est moi
Qui fuit comme l'eau dans la main
D'vant l'angoisse du quotidien
Qui s'dérobe devant les dames
Quand ça tourne au psycho-drame?
On va dire qu' c'est moi
Allez on va dire qu' c'est moi
Qui dit qui sait pas lire l'heure
Qu'a peur d'un ordinateur?
Qui trouve pas net l'Internet?
Qui cherche encore sa planète?
On va dire qu' c'est moi
Allez on va dire qu' c'est moi
Qui se lève tous les matins
Tournant l'dos à son destin
Qui s'veut aimable et affable
Qu'est mêm' pas un homme à femmes?
On va dire qu' c'est moi
Allez on va dire qu' c'est moi
C'est ça, on va dire...

A Christmas To Remember (Amy Grant)
A Christmas To Remember
Composer(s): Beverly Darnell - Chris Eaton - Amy Grant
Performer(s): Amy Grant
Twinkling lights
A chill is in the air
And carols everywhere
Close your eyes, it's almost here
Candles and cards
And favorite movie scenes
The smell of evergreen
As special as it's always been
And I have a dream or two
Maybe they will come true
Setting our hopes on a big snow tonight
We'll wake up to a world of white
It's gonna be a Christmas to remember
Light up the fire, play some Nat King Cole
Always sentimental and don't you know that
It's gonna be a Christmas to remember
I know it's true
Time doesn't stand still
Many things can change
But we know some things never will
The memories we share
The songs we always sing
The mystery of life
The hopefulness this season brings
And I have a dream or two
Maybe they will come true
Setting our hopes on a big snow tonight
We'll wake up to a world of white
It's gonna be a Christmas to remember
Light up the fire, play some Nat King Cole
Always sentimental and don't you know that
It's gonna be a Christmas to remember

On Top Of Spaghetti
On Top Of Spaghetti
Composer(s): Tom Glazer
Performer(s): Tom Glazer;
and various other artists
On top of spagetti all covered with cheese
I lost my poor meatball when somebody sneezed
It rolled off the table, it rolled on the floor
And then my poor meatball rolled out of the door
It rolled in the garden and under a bush
And then my poor meatball was nothing but mush
The mush was as tasty as tasty could be
And early next summer it grew to a tree
The tree was all covered with beautiful moss
It grew great big meatballs and tomato sauce
So if you eat spaghetti all covered with cheese
Hold on to your meatball and don't ever sneeze

A Different Kind Of Christmas
A Different Kind Of Christmas
Composer(s): Pete Amato - Jud J. Friedman - Allan Rich - LeAnn Rimes
Performer(s): LeAnn Rimes; Kenny Rogers
The lights around the Christmas tree don't burn as bright
And all around the world it isn't a silent night
Outside I hear the voices sing the sweetest sounds of caroling
But somehow there's a sadness in the song
In our hearts we know that something's wrong
It's a different kind of Christmas
In a different kind of world
Even though it looks the same
Everything has changed
It's a different kind of Christmas
Children opening gifts with wonder and surprise
I wish that I could still see through such innocent eyes
I used to feel so safe inside, I had a place to run and hide
In my Daddy's arms I felt secure
No one can protect us anymore
It's a different kind of Christmas
In a different kind of world
Even though it looks the same
Everything has changed
It's a different kind of Christmas
Sending cards that talk of peace and love and cheer
Oh, that's what we need if we'd only believe
It would be a different kind of Christmas
In a different kind of world
Even though it looks the same
Everything has changed
It's a different kind of Christmas
Ooh-ooh-huh-aah
Different kind of Christmas
