Goodbye (Josef Locke)
Goodbye
Composer(s): Robert Stolz; Harry Graham
Performer(s): Josef Locke;
Vernon Midgley; David Whitfield
My heart is broken
But what care I?
Such pride inside me has woken
I'll try my best not to cry
By and by
When the final farewells must be spoken
I'll join the Legion
That's what I'll do
And in some far distant region
Where human hearts are staunch and true
I shall start my life anew
Good-bye, it's time
I sought a foreign clime
Where I may find
there are hearts more kind
Than I leave behind
And so, I go
To fight a savage foe
Although I know that
I'll be sometimes missed by the girls I've kissed
In some Abyssinian French Dominion
I shall do my bit
And fall for the flag if I must
Where the desert sand is nice and handy
I'll be full of grit
You won't see my heels for the dust
I'll do or die
You'll know the reason why
When told of bold Leopold's last stand
For the Fatherland
Good-bye, it's time
I sought a foreign clime
Where I may find
There are hearts more kind
Than I leave behind
And so, I go
To fight a savage foe
Although I know that
I'll be sometimes misses by the girls I've kissed
In some Abyssinian French Dominion
I shall do my bit
And fall for the flag if I must
Where the desert sand is nice and handy
I'll be full of grit
You won't see my heels for the dust
I'll do or die
You'll know the reason why
When told of bold Leopold's last stand
For the Fatherland
Good-bye
Good-bye
I wish you all a last Good-bye
Good-bye
Good-bye.
I wish you all a last Good-bye

Umbrellas
Umbrellas
Composer(s): Bruce Dedrick
Performer(s): The Free Design
I’m walking down the street in the rain, my umbrella high above my head
High above my head
Puddles along the wet sidewalks and gutters, (pitter patter)
Rain lightly falling from the sky (pitter patter)
Rain lightly falling from the sky
Red and green and free design
Umbrellas are in bloom, nourished by the rain
I’m walking down the street in the rain, my umbrella high above my head
High above my head
Though the clouds, the blackness and rain
I see the lightning strike as though it were pain
Rain falling hard on a sea of umbrellas
A colorful bottomless ocean
Then the wind it blows and it blows
I see the umbrellas bend, they creak and they groan
Gusting down alleys and through streets of cars
Causing unbottled unspent commotion
I spy a patch of blue through a cloud
A patch of blue through a shroud
Hopefully umbrellas hide and shrink and close
As the noonday sun peeks through the clouds

My Friend (Neil Sedaka)
My Friend
Composer(s): Howard Greenfield; Neil Sedaka
Performer(s): Neil Sedaka
When I'm unhappy and feeling lonely
and this old world of mine comes tumbling down
you are the someone on who I can depend
it's nice to know that I have you, my friend
When I get crazy, you understand me
you overlook the things I don't mean to say
You're there beside me whenever things go wrong
I'm never lonely knowing you're along
You and me, the two of us together
we go on and face the world whatever happens
No matter what gets in our way
we see it through from day to day
Right up until the very end
it's gonna be me and my friend
We share the good times, we share the bad times
we meet life head-on with its ups and its downs
Some people tell ya that life's a lonely ride
but not for us who travel side by side
You and me, the two of us together
we go on and face the world whatever happens
No matter what gets in our way
we see it through from day to day
Right up until the very end
it's gonna be me and my friend
I'm never lonely knowing you're along
You and me, the two of us together
we go on and face the world whatever happens
No matter what gets in our way
we see it through from day to day
Right up until the very end
it's gonna be me and my friend
It's gonna be me and my friend

Goodbye (Frank Sinatra)
Goodbye
Composer(s): Gordon Jenkins
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists
I'll never forget you
I'll never forget you
I'll never forget how we promised one day
To love one another forever that way
We sad we'd never say, goodbye
But that was long ago
Now you've forgotten I know
No use to wonder why
Let's say farewell, with a sigh, let love die
But we'll go on living
Our own way of living
So you take the high road
And I'll take the low
It's time that we parted
It's much better so
But kiss me as you go, goodbye

Don't Turn Away
Don't Turn Away
Composer(s): Chris Dedrick
Performer(s): The Free Design
If we have a troubled time, do you stop admiring me?
When we see that we aren’t perfect, do you stop desiring me?
I could keep your eyes from crying
Please don’t turn your back on me
You could keep my heart from dying
Let me hold you, tenderly
Don’t turn away from me
don’t increase the distance between us when things aren’t right
I love you truly so help me, oh
Please let me bury my face in your hair
and my hopes in your care
My love in your body, my life in your heart
beating sadly on nights such as this
Dissolved in one kiss
I could keep your eyes from crying
Please don’t turn your back on me
You could keep my heart from dying
Let me hold you, tenderly
Don’t turn away from me
don’t increase the distance between us when things aren’t right
I love you truly so help me, oh
Please let me bury my face in your hair
and my hopes in your care
My love in your body, my life in your heart
beating sadly on nights such as this
Dissolved in one warm, wet, willing kiss

My Friend (Frankie Laine)
My Friend
Composer(s): Ervin Drake; Jimmy Shirl
Performer(s): Frankie Laine
and various other artists
My friend is the king of all kings
And yet my friend walks beside me
My friend rules the earth and the sun
And yet my friend stops to guide me
My friend takes my hand just when all appears in vain
And makes it plain, through joy or pain
He'll remain my friend
My friend tells me life is a road
And though it ends at the bending
My friend tells me then there's a road
beyond this road that is unending
Some day when I walk up that happy road that lies around the bend
Who will there be to welcome me
My friend
Who will there be to welcome me
My friend

Laisse tes pleurs sur mon tapis
Ne sonne pas ce soir, je veux dormir
Et surtout mon pauvre ami
Ne reviens pas, demain je vais partir
Goodbye (goodbye), goodbye (goodbye)
Goodbye, my love goodbye
Mets le feu à cette lettre
C'est la dernière, je ne t'écrirai plus
Mets ton cœur à ta fenêtre
Va prendre un verre, ce soir tu m'as perdu
Goodbye (goodbye), goodbye (goodbye)
Goodbye, my love goodbye
Je m'en vais très loin là-bas
Trouver celui que j'ai quitté pour toi
Sa chanson se colle à moi
Et me poursuit, je veux savoir pourquoi
Goodbye (goodbye), goodbye (goodbye)
Goodbye, my love goodbye

Tears In My Heart
Tears In My Heart
Composer(s): Leonard Whitcup - Teddy Powell - Walter Samuels
Performer(s): Mildred Bailey
and multiple other artists
Tears in my heart
Oh how my soul cries for you!
I'm just a fool, broken hearted
Tears in my heart
what lonely nights I live through
My empty arms call for you
Once there were moonbeams
That used to dance around my heart
You brought the storm clouds
The lightning flash
Then the thunder crash
Oh where can there be
Another love just for me
To turn all the tears in my heart to joy?

My Foolish Heart
My Foolish Heart
Composer(s): Ned Washington; Victor Young
Originally performed by: Martha Mears
Covered by various other artists
The night is like a lovely tune
Beware my foolish heart!
How white the ever constant moon
Take care, my foolish heart!
There's a line between love and fascination
That's hard to see on an evening such as this
For they give the very same sensation
When you are lost in the passion of a kiss
Your lips are much too close to mine
Beware my foolish heart!
But should our eager lips combine
Then let the fire start
For this time it isn't fascination
Or a dream that will fade and fall apart
It's love this time
It's love, my foolish heart!

Goodbye (Lucio Dalla)
Goodbye
Composer(s): Lucio Dalla
Performer(s): Lucio Dalla
La luce della luna
Le ombre del cortile
Un fischio nella notte lontano
La voglia di partire
Intorno alla città che dorme
Milioni di respiri insieme
Cosa debbo fare
Per farmi voler bene
Tempo dammi tempo
Non mi massacrare
Tra poco mi addormento lo sento
Aiutami a sognare
La nave che era in porto è già lontana
È un punto in mezzo al mare
Per farmi voler bene
Che cosa debbo fare
Goodbye
Andare via e non tornare mai
Ad occhi chiusi non fermarsi mai
Con un foglio d'erba in tasca te ne vai
Tempo dammi tempo ancora
Non so cosa succede
Adesso sto dormendo eppure
Mi scorri nelle vene
Cisa rà pure un posto dove il cuore
Non ha più catene
Oppure dimmi il trucco
Per farsi voler bene
Goodbye
Andare via, non tornare mai
Ad occhi chiusi non fermarti mai
Con un foglio d'erba in tasca te ne vai
La luna che era in cielo scende
Chissà dov'è che va a dormire
Si sente già la gente
Che è pronta per uscire
Goodbye
Andare via, non tornare mai
Ad occhi chiusi non fermarsi mai
Con un foglio d'erba in tasca te ne vai
Goodbye

Tears In My Beer
Tears In My Beer
Composer(s): Roddy Byers - The Specials
Performer(s): The Specials
Tears in my beer
Well it just ain't clear
I had a dream
Well so it seems
She's in the sun
Not having fun
And I'm standing here
Just the lonely one
Tears in my beer
Here comes another year
Seen it all before
Just like a closing door
There was a time
When she was mine
Well it's so long ago
Does she want to know?
I know you just think that I'm just singing the blues
But I've got nothing to lose
Tears in my beer
It's getting clear
Her face I see
Right next to me
She's drinking wine
And looking fine
I'm feeling sad
It's just a dream I had
I know you just think that I'm just singing the blues
But I've got nothing to lose
Tears in my beer
It just ain't clear
I had a dream
Well so it seems
She's in the sun
Just having fun
While I'm standing here
Tears in my beer
But she ain't here
Tears in my beer

My Fist Your Face
My Fist Your Face
Composer(s): Aerosmith
Performer(s): Aerosmith
Wake up baby, what you in for
Start the day upon your knees
What you pissin' in the wind for
You musta snorted too much bleas
East house pinball wizard
Full tilt bozo plague
Second floor trekkie
Makin' warp speed out the door
Julio Afrokeluchie
He the only one who stayed
Countin' up the days
Please no more
My Fist Your Face
That's for sure
Hey Betty Boop you got me droolin'
I'm buzzing 'round your hive tonight
You play the hooky stead of schoolin'
Son of a bitch put out the light
Thirteen year old hookers
Take a sack right trough the bars
You wonder why the man's outside the door
Junior achivers, got the old bull by the horns
Back in the saddle gets you sore
My Fist Your Face
That's for sure
East house pinball wizard
Full tilt bozo plague
Second floor trekkie
Makin' warp speed out the door
Julio Afrokeluchie
He the only one who stayed
Countin' up the days
Please no more
Ah, my fist your face
That's for sure
Oh-hoo yeah
My fist your face
That's for sure oh-hooo
My fist your face
That's for sure oh-hoo
My fist your face
That's for sure

Goodbye (John McCormack & Fritz Kreisler)
Goodbye
Composer(s): Francesco Paolo Tosti; G.J. Whyte-Melville
Performer(s): John McCormack & Fritz Kreisler;
Enrico Caruso; Richard Crooks
Falling leaf and fading tree
Lines of white in a sullen sea
Shadows rising on you and me
Shadows rising on you and me
The swallows are making them ready to fly
Wheeling out on a windy sky
Good-bye, Summer!
Good-bye, Good-bye, Summer Good-bye!
Hush! A voice from the faraway!
Listen and learn, it seems to say
All tomorrows shall be as today
All tomorrows shall be as today
The chords is frayed the cruse is dry
The link must break, and the lamp must die
Good-bye, to Hope! Good-bye, Good-bye!
Good-bye, to Hope! Good-bye, Good-bye!
What are we waiting for? Oh! My heart!
Kiss me straight on the brows!
And part! Again! Again! My heart!
What are we waiting for, you and I?
A pleading look, a stifled cry
Good-bye, forever! Good-bye, forever!
Good-bye, Good-bye, Good-bye!

Tears In Heaven
Tears In Heaven
Composer(s): Eric Clapton - Will Jennings
First release by: Eric Clapton - 1991
Covered by multiple other artists
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way, through night and day
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven
Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knee
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please
Beyond the door
There's peace I'm sure
And I know there'll be no more...
Tears in heaven
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

My Filipino Rose
My Filipino Rose
Composer(s): Hank Snow
Performer(s): Hank Snow; Ernest Tubb
The postman dropped a letter at my door
The address wasn’t plain but I could see
It had traveled far across the great Pacific
From My Filipino Rose across the sea
But I’m still praying that the trade wind sends you sailing across the blue
In my harbor of dreams you’ll anchor, where your lonely Filipino waits for you
The writing from her trembling hands was blurred
The paper it was sadly stained with tears
It read, they tell me you have wed another
After I have longed and waited all these years
But I’m still praying that the trade wind sends you sailing across the blue
In my harbor of dreams you’ll anchor, where your lonely Filipino waits for you
I promised her that I’d return someday
I told her she had won my heart and hand
I told her a line ‘cause I was lonely
Far from home a stranger in a foreign land
But I’m still praying that the trade wind sends you sailing across the blue
In my harbor of dreams you’ll anchor, where your lonely Filipino waits for you
She wrote, I’ve watched the driftwood float on by
I’ve watched the sea roll on its weary way
I have watched the silver sails out on the ocean
Hoping you might return to me someday
But I’m still praying that the trade wind sends you sailing across the blues
In my harbor of dreams you’ll anchor, where your lonely Filipino waits for you
The chains of my love may never set you free
But thru’ the years as memories fonder grow
This broken heart will always wait for you, dear
It was signed your lonely Filipino Rose
But I’m still praying that the trade wind sends you sailing across the blue
In my harbor of dreams you’ll anchor, where you Filipino waits for you

Goodbat Nightman
Goodbat Nightman
Composer(s): John Gorman;
Roger McGough; Mike McGear
Performer(s): The Scaffold
God bless all policemen and fighters of crime
May thieves go to jail for a very long time
They've had a hard day helping clean up the town
Now they hang from the mantle piece, both upside down
A glass of warm blood and then straight up the stairs
Batman and Robin are saying their prayers
Batman & Robin:
God bless Superman and Superwoman!
Aquaman and Aquawoman!
Ironman and Ironwoman!
Spiderman and Spiderwoman!
Plasticman and Plasticwoman!
Crazyman an-
Robin: B-b-Batman
Batman: Yes Robin
Robin: W-w-was there ever a Batwoman?
Batman: There was once, Boy Wonder, a long time back
Robin: Where is she now?
Batman: I'm afraid she's no longer with us
Robin: Oh, you mean...?
Batman: Yes, she's in the great belfry up there in the sky
Robin: Holy Saint Batwoman, what happened?
Batman: She rather foolishly got in the way of the batmobile
Robin: Suicide?
Batman: Batricide!
Robin: Gosh, why didn't I think of that
They've locked all the doors and they've put out the bat
(Meouw!)
Put on the batjamas
(We like doing that!)
Filled the batwater-bottles, made the batbeds
With two springy batrasses for sleepy batheads
They're closing red eyes and they're counting black sheep
Batman and Robin are falling asleep
(Door opens)
Robin: W-w-w-where are you going Batman?
Batman: The batroom!
Robin: Holyluya!
(Door closes)

My Brother Woody
Composer(s): Chris Dedrick
Performer(s): The Free Design; Bart Davenport
Hikin’ a football between his knees
runnin’ to catch a pass
Climbing up the friendly trees
fallin’ in the grass
My brother Woody
Singin’ a song and playin’ guitar
laughin’ at every goof
Tryin’ to touch the morning star
from the toolshed roof
My brother Woody
Don’t go away and leave the lights on
Curtain strings don’t get yanked
Gotta watch out for Mom "the Bomb"
Be good enough not to get spanked
My brother Woody

Filipino Baby
Filipino Baby
Composer(s): Billy Cox; Clark Van Ness; Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
and various other artists
When the warships left Manila, sailing proudly over the sea
All, the sailor’s hearts were filled with found regret
Looking backward to this island where they spent such happy hours
Making love to ev’er pretty girl they met
Then up step a little sailor with his bright eye’s all aglow
Saying, take a look at my gal’s photograph
Then the sailor’s gathered around him Just to look upon her face
And he said I love my Filipino Baby
She’s my Filipino Baby
She’s my treasure and my pet
Her teeth are bright and pearly
And her hair is black as jet
O’ her lips are sweet as honey
And her heart is true I know
She’s my darling little Filipino Baby
In a little rustic cottage in the far off Philippines
Dwells a lonely little maiden all alone
She is thinking of her true love, though he is far across the sea
And her heart beats true for him and him alone
Then one day he whispered "Darlin’ I’ve come back from Caroline"
"I’ve come back to claim the only girl I love"
Then that night there was a wedding while the ship’s crew gathered round
And he wed his little Filipino Baby
She’s my Filipino Baby
She’s my treasure and my pet
Her teeth are bright and pearly
And her hair is black as jet
O’ her lips are sweet as honey
And her heart is true I know
She’s my darling little Filipino Baby
