Take Your Girlie To The Movies (If You Can't Make Love At Home)
Take Your Girlie To The Movies (If You Can't Make Love At Home)
Composer(s): Bert Kalmar - Edgar Leslie
Performer(s): Dean Martin
Beatrice Fairfax gives advice
To anyone in love
That's why Johnny Gray
Wrote to her one day
'When I call to love my girl
Her folks are always there
That's why I'm blue
What shall I do?"
And Beatrice said, "never despair"
Sweethearts always used to spoon
In a big morris chair
Young folks of today
Have a different way
Far away from cranky dad
And mother's eagle eye
It's lots of fun
Here's how it's done
So come on and give it a try
Take your girlie to the movies
If you can't make love at home
There's not little brother there who always squeals
You can say an awful lot in the seven reels
Take your lessons at the movies
And have love scenes of your own
When the pictures over and it's time to leave
Don't forget to brush the powder off your sleeve
Take your girlie to the movies
If you can't make love at home
Take your girlie to the movies
If you can't make love at home
Pick a cozy corner where it's nice and dark
Don't catch influenza, kissing in the park
Take your lessons at the movies
And have love scenes of your own
Tho she's just a simple little ribbon clerk
Close your eyes and think you're kissing Billie Burke
Take your girlie to the movies
If you can't make love at home

We know it's hard for you to see
That this is all we want to be
A constant urge within us grows
We know it
To do the thing that we propose

Yes we know it
By making music day to day
Yes we know it
Although our task is never done
You know we know it
You ought to know it's just begun
You know we know it
And now it's time for us to say
But most of all we like to play
A song or two that makes you feel
We know it
Like all the good in you is real
We know it
Together now we've lots to hear
Yes we know it
To warm my heart to shed a tear
Yes we know it
So come and listen if you choose
You know we know it
And feel a joy you'll never lose
You know we know it
So everybody listen
Yeah
Everybody please give a listen

Take Your Fingers Off It
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Memphis Jug Band
and multiple other artists
Katie King she had a diamond ring
And it caused her lots of woe
Now who would be the lucky one to get it
Well all the fellahs wanted to know
Red Cap called on her one night
Saw the ring and lost his head
But when he went to view it
He stuck his finger through it
And this is what she loudly said...
Man, take your fingers off it
Now don't you try to touch it
'Cause it don't belong to you
There's no need to crave it
'Cause mama's gonna save it
For the man whose love is true
Boy, try and find something like it
See if you won't fail
Papa you can't buy it 'cause it ain't for sale
Now take your fingers off it
And don't you dare to touch it
'Cause it don't belong to you
I said take your fingers off it
And don't you dare to touch it
'Cause it don't belong to you
Well there's no need to crave it
'Cause Mama's gonna save it
For the man whose love is true
Boy, try and find something like it
See if you won't fail
Papa you can't buy it cause it ain't for sale
You gotta take your fingers off it
And don't you dare to touch it
'Cause it don't belong to you
You hear me tellin' you, man
No, it don't belong to you

Baby Star
Baby Star
((Adapted from: Movie Star (by Harpo) - 1975))
Composer(s): Harpo - Vline Buggy - Claude Carrère
Performer(s): Sacha Distel - 1976
Des cils en soie bleutée
Et des lèvres couleur abricot
Tu voudrais à tout prix ressembler
A Marilyn ou à Garbo
Fume-cigarettes et talons hauts
Avec une robe noire rétro
Mais moi, qui te connaît si bien, qui t'aime
Ce n'est pas pour ça que je suis avec toi
Baby star, my baby star
Tu es tellement plus belle
Baby star, ô my baby star
Quand tu es naturelle
Star, ha-ha-hain
Tirée des romans d'Hemingway
Ou sortie d'un film de Fellini
Capricieuse comme une reine de Broadway
Comédienne par instinct, tu pleures, tu ries
Tu séduis, tu t'enfuies dans la nuit
Comme un rêve entrevu au hasard d'une rue
Mais moi, qui te connaît et qui t'aime aussi
Ce n'est pas pour ça que je suis avec toi
Baby star, my baby star
Tu es tellement plus belle
Baby star, ô my baby star
Quand tu es naturelle
Star, ha-ha-hain
Cheveux dans le vent
Dans une robe couleur pois de senteur
C'est ainsi que je t'ai connue
C'est comme ça que je veux te garder
Baby star, my baby star
Tu es tellement plus belle
Baby star, ô my baby star
Quand tu es naturelle
Star, ha-ha-hain

Give Me Your Heart Tonight
Composer(s): Billy Livsey
Performer(s): Shakin' Stevens
Oh, tonight
I'm walkin' the streets again
Runnin' away
From all of my tears and friends
Oh, tonight
The stars are in darkend skies
They don't hold all the love
I can see in your lonely eyes
'Cos I'm not waiting for a secret
I don't wanna hear a lie
Don't want the promise of tomorrow
Give me your heart tonight
To young
To young to start settling down
I'm gettin' to old
To wanna keep running around
Oh, your love
Is something I don't wanna miss
End up alone
Livin' on a one night kiss
'Cos I'm not crying without reason
I'm not asking what is right
Just like the changin' of the season
Give me your heart tonight
'Cos I'm not waiting for a secret
I don't wanna hear a lie
Don't want the promise of tomorrow
Give me your heart tonight
I'm not crying without reason
I'm not asking what is right
Just like the changin' of the season
Give me your heart tonight
I'm not crying without reason
I'm not asking what is right
Just like the changin' of the season
Give me your heart tonight
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Give me your heart tonight
Ooh-ooh............

Take Time To Know Her
Take Time To Know Her
Performer(s): Percy Sledge
I found a woman
I felt a true love
She was everything
I'd ever been dreaming of
But she was bad, I didn't know it
Her pretty smile never did show it
All I knew is what I could see
And I knew I wanted her for me
Took her home to mama
Mama, wanna see my future bride
Well she looked at us both
Then she called me to her side
She said, "son, take time to know her
It's not an overnight thing
Take time to know her
Please don't go rushin to do your thing
But I didn't listen to my mama
I went straight to the church
I just couldn't wait for that little girl of mine
When I got off from work
The preacher was there
So was my future bride
He looked at us both and he called me to his side
Take time to know her
Not an overnight fling
Take time to know her
Don't go rushin to do your thing
But it looks like every thing's gonna turn out all right
But then I came home from work a little early one night
And there she was kissin on another man
Now I know what mama meant when she took me by the hand
She said, take time to know her
Not an overnight fling
Take time to know her
Don't go rushin to do your thing
She said, take time to know her
Not an overnight fling
Take time to know her
Don't go rushin to do your thing
Take time to know her ...

Composer(s): Harpo
First release by: Harpo - 1975
Covered by multiple other artists
You feel like Steve McQueen
When you're driving in your car
And you think you look like James Bond
When you're smoking your cigar
It's so bizarre
You think you are a new kind of James Dean
But the only thing I've ever seen of you
Was a commercial spot on the screen
Moviestar, oh Moviestar, ah ah ah, you think you are a Movie
Moviestar, oh Moviestar, ah ah ah, you think you are a Movie-Star ah ah ah
You should belong to the jet set
Fly your own private learjet
But you worked in a grocery store
Every day you could afford to get away
So you went to sweden to meet ingrid bergman
But he wasn't there or he yust didn't care
I think it's time for you my friend
To stop pretending that you are a moviestar
Moviestar, oh Moviestar, ah ah ah, you think you are a Movie
Moviestar, oh Moviestar, ah ah ah, you think you are a Movie-Star ah ah ah
Frozen hero
Your words are zero
Your dreams have vanished into dark long ago
But you're the one to know
Moviestar, oh Moviestar, ah ah ah, you think you are a Movie
Moviestar, oh Moviestar, ah ah ah, you think you are a Movie
Moviestar, oh Moviestar, ah ah ah, you think you are a Movie-Star ah ah ah

Performer(s): Michael Johnson;
Highstrung; Don Schlitz
Oh Elaine, you've broken my dreams
It's not as it seemed before
I can see it don't mean to you
What it could mean to me
Been a long time, as the road winds
I'm sideways, in a great haze
I turn, turn ... the page
Oh Elaine, I'm going insane
It's cold and the rain won't do
I'm told I must make this turn
I guess it won't be with you
Chorus
So long, I bid you farewell
I wish you the best, you know
Oh Elaine, if you change your mind
It's me you can find again
Turn, turn ... the page

Take This Town
Take This Town
Composer(s): Andy Partridge - Brian Howe - Terry Thomas
Performer(s): Bad Company; XTC
Living in a rabbit tunnel
Keep the doggie in her kennel
Mustn't let her see the world
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Living under Mum and Daddy
Carry hope just like a caddie
Mustn't let them see you're killed
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Shout it clear for all to hear
You won't shoot this bird down
Shout it clear for all to hear
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
Turn a deaf ear to the orders
Keep them as your perfect daughters
Mustn't let them know their minds
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Turning on to only music
Breaking from their childhood attic
Mustn't let them open the blinds
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Shout it clear for all to hear
You won't shoot this bird down
Shout it clear for all to hear
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
It's time she stopped being your ornament
It's time she put that in the past for permanent
You can't hold her if she wants to roam around around around around around
You can't hold her dream and keep it gagged and bound, gagged and bound
We're going
We're going to
We're going to take
We're going to take this
We're going to take this
We're going to take this
We're going to take this
We're going to take this
We're going to take this

Movie Queen
Movie Queen
Composer(s): Paul Kelly
Performer(s): Bill Anderson
This is a song about a girl from the bayou
down in Louisiana country
The story simply says
She left home at sixteen said she was gonna be a movie queen
Said her hometown was just too small and she had roaches and rats wall to wall
So without a bag of beans she made a change of scenes
Hitched a ride up to New Orleans
With just the clothes on her back and a little brown sack
Said hello to the city where she would learn to act
Gonna be a movie queen gonna be on the big wide screen
Fancy clothes and diamond rings have all the better things
She took a part time job at the Burger King
Went to school at night oh she was doin' her things
Then she started hangin' out with the evening crowd
Gettin' high acclaim before she knew it she was all strung out
She still had that dream of bein' a movie queen
So she decided she'd have to leave New Orleans
Hollywood bound but with her feet on the ground
When she got to the city she took a look around
Said gonna be a movie queen...
Oh but things didn't work out that way they found her dead in her room today
But in my mind I can hear her say I can still hear her say
Gonna be a movie queen...

Give Me The Simple Life
Give Me The Simple Life
Composer(s): Harry Ruby; Rube Bloom
Performer(s): Julie London
I don't believe in frettin' and grievin'
Why mess around with strife?
I never was cut out to step and strut out
Give me the simple life
Some find it pleasant dining on pheasant
Those things roll off my knife
Just serve me tomatoes; and mashed potatoes
Give me the simple life
A cottage small is all I'm after
Not one that's spacious and wide
A house that rings with joy and laughter
And the ones you love inside
Some like the high road, I like the low road
Free from the care and strife.
Sounds corny and seedy, but yes, indeed-y
Give me the simple life

Era Um Garoto Que Como Eu Amava Os Beatles E Os Rolling Stones
Era Um Garoto Que Como Eu Amava Os Beatles E Os Rolling Stones
((Adapted from: C'era Un Ragazzo Che Come Me Amava I Beatles E I Rolling Stones (Gianni Morandi) - 1966))
Composer(s): Mauro Lusini - Francesci Migliacci - Paulino Brancato Jr.
Performer(s): Os Incríveis - 1967
Era um garoto, que como eu
amava os Beatles e os Rolling Stones
Girava o mundo sempre a cantar
As coisas lindas da América
Não era belo mas mesmo assim
Havia mil garotas, sim
Cantava "Help" and "Ticket to ride"
Oh! "Lady Jane" and "Yesterday"
Cantava viva a liberdade
Mas uma carta sem esperar
Da sua guitarra o separou
Fora chamado na América
Stop! com Rolling Stones
Stop! com Beatles songs
Mandado foi ao Vietnã
Brigar com vietcongs
Tatá-ratatá, tatá-ratatá
Tatá-ratatá, tatá-ratatá
Tatá-ratatá, tatá-ratatá
Tatá-ratatá, tatá-ratatá
Era um garoto, que como eu
amava os Beatles e os Rolling Stones
Girava o mundo mas acabou
Fazendo a guerra no Vietnã
Cabelos longos não usa mais
Não toca a sua guitarra e sim
Um instrumento que sempre dá
A mesma nota ratá-tatá
Não tem amigos
Nem mais garotas
Só gente morta caindo ao chão
Ao seu país não voltará
Pois está morto no Vietnã
Stop! com Rolling Stones
Stop! com Beatles songs
No peito coração não há
Mas duas medalhas sim
Tatá-ratatá, tatá-ratatá
Tatá-ratatá, tatá-ratatá
Tatá-ratatá, tatá-ratatá
Tatá-ratatá, tatá-ratatá
Ratá-tatá-tatá
Ratá-tatá-tatá
