Our Joe Won't Be With Us Much Longer
Our Joe Won't Be With Us Much Longer
Composer(s): Marriott Edgar
Performer(s): Al Read
When Joe was first wed he was only nineteen
And he said to his wife "Listen Flo
You don't ask me 'Where the hell have you been?'
And I won't tell you where to go!"
He's lived by this maxim for eighty-five years
That makes him a hundred and four
And now we've found out why he's always in tears
He can't chase the girls any more
Our Joe won't be with us much longer
Might be a week or a day
He said to the Vicar "I can't come no quicker
So just put your hymn book away!"
Last Friday we all thought he'd snuffed it
Heard our Jack say to our Lil
"He looks healthy and good" Says our Max "So he should"
He's just had a fortnight at Rhyl
Our Joe won't be with us much longer
The Doctor said "Don't make a row
He's asleep full of dope, but we musn't lose hope
But d'you think you could pay my bill now?"
The insurance man called and said "Joseph
You've been out when your premiums were due
But it wipes the slate clean, if you know what I mean
You'll be out when we call to pay you!"
Our Joe won't be with us much longer
It looks like his bolt has been shot
It's the love life he's led, there's been three that he's wed
And at least half a dozen he's not
I won't say it's the boozing that's done it
But where you've got blood, Joe's got gin
You can tell, last October, Our Joe came home sober
And his dog wouldn't let him come in!
Our Joe won't be with us much longer
"Get best oak" says our Joe, "Some good stuff
And see when I go, I'm on top of our Flo
She's been on top of me long enough!"
We've made the arrangements for Friday
With the lilies they've started to call
And if he's not gone by a quarter to one
The hearse goes without him
That's all!

Milkman, Keep Those Bottles Quiet
Milkman, Keep Those Bottles Quiet
Composer(s): Don Raye; Gene De Paul
Performer(s): Nancy Walker
and various other artists
Milkman, keep those bottles quiet
Can't use that jive on my milk diet
So milkman, keep those bottles quiet
Been jumpin' on the swing shift, all night
Turnin' out my quota all right
Now I'm beat right down to the sod
Gotta catch myself some righteous nod
Milkman stop that grade A riot
Cut out if you can't lullaby it
Oh, milkman, keep those bottles quiet
Been knocking out a fast tank, all day
Working on a bomber okay
Boy you blast my wig with those clinks
And I got to catch my forty winks
So milkman, keep those bottles quiet
Now noise of the riveter rocks, don't mind it
'Cause the man with the whiskers has a lot behind it
But I can't keep punchin' with the victory crew
When you're making me punchy with that bottled moo
I wanna give my all if I'm gonna give it
But I gotta get my shuteye if I'm gonna rivet
So bail out, bud, with that milk barrage
Cause it's unpatriotic, it's sabotage
Been knocking out a fast tank, all day
Working on a bomber okay
Boy, you blast my wig with those clinks
And I got to catch my forty winks
So milkman, keep those bottles quiet
Oooh, milkman, keep those bottles quiet
Oooh, milkman, keep those bottles quiet
Quiet!

Our House (Madness)
Our House
Composer(s): Chris Foreman; Carl "Chas Smash" Smyth
Performer(s): Madness;
Kidz Bop Kids; The Starlite Singers
Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang around
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our ...
Our house it has a crowd
There's always something happening
And it's usually quite loud
Our mum she's so house-proud
Nothing ever slows her down
And a mess is not allowed
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our ...
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our ...
Something tells you that you've got to get away from it
Father gets up late for work
Mother has to iron his shirt
Then she sends the kids to school
Sees them off with a small kiss
She's the one they're going to miss
In lots of ways
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our ...
I remember way back then when everything was true and when
We would have such a very good time such a fine time
Such a happy time
And I remember how we'd play simply waste the day away
Then we'd say nothing would come between us two dreamers
Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang around
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our ...
Our house, was our castle and our keep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, that was where we used to sleep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street

Our House
Composer(s): Graham Nash
Performer(s): Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young;
and various other artists
I'll light the fire
You place the flowers in the vase
That you bought today
Staring at the fire
For hours and hours
While I listen to you play your love songs
All night long for me
Only for me
Come to me now
And rest your head for just five minutes
Everything is done
Such a cozy room
The windows are illuminated
By the evening sunshine through them
Fiery gems for you
Only for you
{Refrain}
Our house, is a very, very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy 'cause of you
La la la....
{Refrain}
I'll light the fire
While you place the flowers in the vase
That you bought today

Milk Train
Milk Train
Composer(s): Tony Romeo
Performer(s): The Everly Brothers
There was a morning train used to come on through
When this sleepy town was alive
And ev'ry Sunday we would come and see
Some mighty fancy people arrive
Ooohh, they arrived aboard the milk train
(La-la-la-la-la-la la)
There was a well dressed lady from the city
Used to always give me her smile
And she looked so fine, she was sweet and kind
She let me get to know her a while
Ooohh, for a little while
Back when the milk train used to rumble my shack
Used to stop outside o' my door
But now the milk train doesn't stop by here anymore
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Now I still live in that railroad shack
And I wander down that rusty old track
Like a lonely old-timer out of my mind
Lookin' for that lady who was sweet and kind to me
Back when the milk train used to rumble my shack
Used to stop outside o' my door
But now the milk train doesn't come by here anymore
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Now the only thing to come on through
Is a Jimmy-John now and then
And I dream of the day she'll come back this way
And let me get to know her again
Ooohh, like way back when
When the milk train used to rumble my shack
Used to stop outside o' my door
But now the milk train doesn't come by here anymore
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Ooohh, milk train used to rumble my shack
Used to stop outside o' my door
But now the milk train doesn't come by here anymore
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Ooohh, milk train ...

Our Heartbreaking Waltz
Our Heartbreaking Waltz
Composer(s): Sidney Prosen
Performer(s): Teresa Brewer
The dance that we started
So gay and light hearted
Brought tears when we parted
Our heartbreaking waltz
The dream I still borrow
Will haunt me tomorrow
I'll hear it in sorrow
Our heartbreaking waltz
I knew you could never
Be mine then forever
Another had claimed you
To her you'd be true
That moment so fleeting
When two hearts stop beating
Repeating, repeating
Our heartbreaking waltz
I knew you could never
Be mine then forever
Another had claimed you
To her you'd be true
That moment so fleeting
When two hearts stop beating
Repeating, repeating
Our heartbreaking waltz

Miles In Memories
Miles In Memories
Composer(s): Carl Story; Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
Yes I’ve got lots of miles, but lots of memories
And I wouldn’t set the miles back if I could
'Cause when ever I get blue
I know exactly what to do
Just re-travel all those miles in memories
You say that all those miles are showing on me
Well I’ll admit I had some rough ones way back when
But for every mile there holds a story left untold
Back there in my book of memories
'Cause I’ve got lots of miles and lots of memories
And I wouldn’t set the miles back if I could
'Cause when ever I get blue
I know exactly what to do
Just re-travel all those miles in memories
Now as faces and places come before me
Making up my full book of memories
And I wouldn’t ever dare
One page to solitaire
I might want to review them all someday
Yes I’ve got lots of miles, but lots of memories
And I wouldn’t set the miles back if I could
'Cause when ever I get blue
I know exactly what to do
Just re-travel all those miles in memories

Our Guessing Game
Our Guessing Game
Composer(s): Ray Thomas
Performer(s): The Moody Blues
Walking in the sand
Thinking of things, adventures in my mind
Of tall ships that sail
Across the oceans wide
They won't wait for me
See how they glide away so gracefully
And, with tomorrow, what will become of me?
They leave me so much to explain
That's the start of our guessing game
There are times when I think I've found the truth
There are times when I know that I'm wrong
There are days when I try to hide my fears
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Wonder why we try so hard?
Wonder why we try at all?
You wonder why the world is turning around
In the end it won't matter at all
There are times when I think I've found the truth
There are times when I know that I'm wrong
There are days when I try to hide my fears
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Standing in the town
Looking at people counting their frowns
Unhappy faces hurrying around
So blind they cannot see
All of the things
The way life ought to be
And, with tomorrow, what will they make of me?
It leaves me so much to explain
That's the start of our guessing game
There are times when I think I've found the truth
There are times when I know that I'm wrong
There are days when I try to hide my fears
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
There are times when I think I've found the truth
There are times when I know that I'm wrong
There are days when I try to hide my fears
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
There are times when I think I've found the truth
There are times when I know that I'm wrong
There are days when I try to hide my fears
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong

Miles Away
Miles Away
Performer(s): Colin Blunstone
If I could reach you
You know I would
If I knew the way
The right things to say
If I could touch you
I wish I could
If I only knew where
You know I'd be there
Miles away
You're so many miles away
Living my lonely life
To live another day (without you)
Miles away
You're so many miles away from me
And I can't find you
All those miles (away)
If I could hold time
In the palm of my hand
I'd not let it through
I'd save it for you
If I had one wish
At my command
I'd want it to be
You wishing for me
Miles away
You're so many miles away
Living my lonely life
To live another day (without you)
Miles away
You're so many miles away from me
And I can't find you
All those miles away
Miles away from me

Our Delaware
Our Delaware
Composer(s): George B. Hynson;
Donn Devine; Will M.S. Brown
Oh the hills of dear New Castle
and the smiling vales between
When the corn is all in tassel
And the meadowlands are green
Where the cattle crop the clover
And its breath is in the air
While the sun is shining over
Our beloved Delaware
Oh our Delaware!
Our beloved Delaware!
For the sun is shining over
our beloved Delaware
Oh our Delaware
Our beloved Delaware!
Heres the loyal son that pledges
Faith to good old Delaware
Where the wheat fields break and billow
In the peaceful land of Kent
Where the toiler seeks his pillow
With the blessings of content
Where the bloom that tints the peaches
Cheeks of merry maidens share
And the woodland chorus preaches
A rejoiceing Delaware
Dear old Sussex visions linger
Of the holly and the pine
Of Henlopens Jeweled finger
Flashing out across the brine
Of the gardens and the hedges
And the welcome waiting there
For the loyal son that pledges
Faith to good old Delaware
From New Castle's rolling meadows
Through the fair rich fields of Kent
To the Sussex shores hear echoes
Of the pledge we now present
Liberty and Independence
We will guard with loyal care
And hold fast to freedom's presence
In our home state Delaware

Miles And Miles Of Texas
Miles And Miles Of Texas
Composer(s): Tommy Camfield; Diane Johnston
Performer(s): Asleep At The Wheel;
5 Guys Named Moe; Bart Trotter
I was born in Louisiana down on the old bayou
Raised on shrimp and catfish and Mammy's good gumbo
I got that ramblin fever said goodbye to ma and pa
I crossed the old Red River
I saw miles and miles of Texas
I'm gonna live there 'til I die
I saw miles and miles of Texas
I'm gonna live there 'til I die
I rode up in to Cowtown the cradle of the west
Just ask any cowboy he'll tell you it's the best
I met a Texas beauty got friendly with her pa
I looked into her big blue eyes
I saw miles and miles of Texas
I'm gonna live there 'til I die
I saw miles and miles of Texas
I'm gonna live there 'til I die
I started taming broncos I made every rodeo
Until I met a rough one his name was Devil Joe
I grabbed on to his bridle to ride the old outlaw
He threw me from the saddle I saw miles and miles of Texas
I'm gonna live there 'til I die
I saw miles and miles of Texas
I'm gonna live there 'til I die
I'm gonna live there 'til I die

Performer(s): Ruby & The Romantics;
and various other artists
Our day will come
And we'll have everything
We'll share the joy
Falling in love can bring

That I'm too young to know (young to know)
I love you so (love you so)
And you love me
Our day will come
If we just wait a while
No tears for us
Think love and wear a smile
Our dreams have magic
Because we'll always stay
In love this way
Our day will come
(Our day will come; our day will come)
Our dreams have magic
Because we'll always stay
In love this way
Our day will come
Our day will come

Milagre Do Povo
Milagre Do Povo
Composer(s): Caetano Veloso
Performer(s): Caetano Veloso;
Gal Costa; Daniela Mercury
Quem é ateu
E viu milagres como eu
Sabe que os Deuses sem Deus
Não cessam de brotar
Nem cansam de esperar
E o coração
Que é soberano e que é senhor
Não cabe na escravidão
Não cabe no seu não
Não cabe em si de tanto sim
É pura dança e sexo e glória
E paira para além da história
Ojú Obá ia lá e via
Ojú Obá ia
Xangô manda chamar
Obatalá guia
Mamãe Oxum chora
Lágrima alegria
Pétala de Iemanjá
Lansã Oiá ria
Ojú Obá ia lá e via
Ojú Obá ia
Obá
É no xaréu
Que brilha prata luz do céu
E o povo negro entendeu
Que o grande vencedor
Se ergue além da dor
Tudo chegou
Sobrevivente num navio
Quem descobriu o Brasil
Foi o negro quem viu
A crueldade bem de frente
E ainda produziu milagres
De fé no estremo ocidente

Our Baby's Gone
Our Baby's Gone
Composer(s): Herb Pedersen
Performer(s): Herb Pedersen; Desert Rose Band
I put our little baby to bed last night
She was sleeping real good and I tucked her in tight
I looked at her once then I looked at her twice
Her little legs are longer and I'm runnin' out of time
The boys are gonna chase her I'll be standing in line
Our baby's gone
Up at 7:30 she comes into our room
She wants to make her breakfast but she can't find her spoon
We wake up and try to shake the sandman out of our eyes
She's already got her clothes on much to our surprise
She did it all herself and we realize
Our baby's gone
Three years old and she's queen of the world
Humpty Dumpty's falling down
Little Jack Horner's on the boredom border
Oh, mama what do we do now
Playing outside her little face to the wind
The hours go by her strength is wearin' thin
She doesn't call for daddy she's a big girl now
Her mama looks in wonder and she don't know how
How our baby girl escaped us no more cuddlin' now
Our baby's gone
Three years old and she's queen of the world
Humpty Dumpty's falling down
Little Jack Horner's on the boredom border
Oh, mama what do we do now
Our baby's gone
Our baby's gone

Performer(s): Chico Buarque
and various other artists
Te perdôo
Por fazeres mil perguntas
Que em vidas que andam juntas
Ninguém faz
Te perdôo
Por pedires perdão
Por me amares demais
Te perdôo
Te perdôo por ligares
Pra todos os lugares
De onde eu vim
Te perdôo
Por ergueres a mão
Por bateres em mim
Te perdôo
Quando anseio pelo instante de sair
E rodar exuberante
E me perder de ti
Te perdôo
Por quereres me ver
Aprendendo a mentir (te mentir, te mentir)
Te perdôo
Por contares minhas horas
Nas minhas demoras por aí
Te perdôo
Te perdôo porque choras
Quando eu choro de rir
Te perdôo
Por te trair

Composer(s): Salvatore Adamo
Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo
Tu t'en vas ma pauvre amourette
Tu t'en vas, ne s'aimait-on pas?
{Refrain:}
Car la mer a bercé tant d'amour
Dans le creux de ses vagues
Le temps d'un été
Mais l'été en partant a laissé sur le sable mouillé
Tant de rêves oubliés
Un bout de ciel et un coin de dune
Un goût de sel sur ta peau brune
Et l'été qui nous ensorcelle
En été, méfie toi la belle
{au Refrain}
On cueille l'été à fleur d'insouciance
Jamais l'été au chagrin ne pense
Mais tu pleureras petite fleur des plages
Quand l'été chantera sur notre rivage
{au Refrain}
Car la mer a bercé tant d'amour
Dans le creux de ses vagues
Le temps d'un été
Mais l'été en partant a laissé sur le sable mouillé
Tant de rêves oubliés

Mil Etter Mil
Mil Etter Mil
Composer(s): Eide
First performance by: Jahn Teigen - 1978
Hvil deg nå, du er sliten
Hvil din kropp før din kraft ebber ut
Vann pipler inn i dine sko
Du vandrer i regnet
Mil etter mil etter mil
etter mil etter mil etter mil
Søk mot meg, hvis du lengter
Rett ditt sinn mot et annet sted
Kom hit hvor jeg er, hvor solen er nær
Du må ikke gå
Mil etter mil etter mil
etter mil etter mil etter mil
Og det er langt å gå
Det er lengselen som driver deg
Mot et lys som du kan se men ikke jeg
Tenk deg om nå
Hvor farer du hen
Du har vandret alt for lenge
Mil etter mil etter mil
etter mil etter mil etter mil
Tenk deg om nå
Hvor farer du hen
Du har vandret alt for lenge
Mil etter mil etter mil
etter mil etter mil etter mil
etter mil etter mil etter mil
etter mil etter mil etter mil
