Cheese Cake


Cheese Cake Composer(s): Joe Perry - Steven Tyler Performer(s): Aerosmith



I met a babe in a backseat drive-in
Back in the saddle she'd sit
Pulled on the reins just to keep me risin'
She loved to chomp at the bit
Daddy do it, ooh, just do it
Daddy do it, please let me see
Do it, please just do it daddy
Do it, do it, drivin' me crazy
She always walks with her eyes down on her bootlace
She lives to give it away
She don't believe in the right time or the wrong place
She's always liable to say
(cheese cake) looser than her sister
(cheese cake) mmm, her sugar gets me high
She knows I can't resist her (cheese cake)
Got my fingers in her pie (cheese cake)
(cheese cake) sneakin' out the back door
(cheese cake) rollin' down the lawn
Everybody's kissed her (cheese cake)
At the crack of dawn (cheese cake)

Rainin' On The Mountain


Rainin' On The Mountain
Composer(s): Alton Delmore
Performer(s): Glen Campbell;
and various other artists



Oh why do you leave me honey babe
Oh why do you leave me honey babe
Oh why do you leave me
When you know it's gonna beat me
Oh why do you leave me honey baby

Oh it's rainin' on the mountain, now my love
It's rainin' on the mountain, now my love
It's rainin' on the mountain
And there's sunshine in the valley
But I'm livin' on the mountain, now my love

I worry and I can not sleep at night
I worry and I can not sleep at night
I can not sleep at night
'Cause the future don't look bright
And I worry and I can not sleep at night

Oh it's rainin' on the mountain, now my love
It's rainin' on the mountain, now my love
It's rainin' on the mountain
And there's sunshine in the valley
But I'm livin' on the mountain, now my love

When you sow you gotta reap some lonely day
According to the bible, so they say
When your sow you gotta reap
When you reap you're gonna weep
When the judgement you will need, honey baby

Oh it's rainin' on the mountain, now my love
It's rainin' on the mountain, now my love
It's rainin' on the mountain
And there's sunshine in the valley
But I'm living on the mountain, now my love

Take it away boys

I'm leavin' in the mornin' for my home
I'm leavin' in the mornin' for my home
'Cause my honey now is gone
Always leavin' me alone
And I'm leavin' in the mornin' for my home

Oh it's rainin' on the mountain, now my love
It's rainin' on the mountain, now my love
It's rainin' on the mountain
And there's sunshine in the valley
But I'm livin' on the mountain, now my love

Da Da Dam


Da Da Dam
Composer(s): Axel Ehnström
First performance by: Paradise Oskar - 2011



Peter is smart, he knows each European country by heart
He likes to sit under an apple tree on his yard
And wait for an apple to fall When Peter is nine, his teacher tells him that this planet is dying
That someone needs to put an end to it all
And so when Peter comes home, he tells his mom

I'm going out in the world to save our planet
And I ain't coming back until she's saved
I'll walk my way to see the king and parliament
If they don't help, I'll do it by myself
I don't wanna be...
Dadadam dadadam dadadada dadada dadam...

Peter is young, he tries to talk, but no one listens to him
Everybody's busy living and dying, not thinking about what they're doing
But look at the boy who went out in the world to save our planet
And he ain't coming back until she's saved
He walked his way to see the king and parliament
But they all turned their heads and walked away, singing

Dadadam dadadam dadadada dadada dadam...
Dadadam dadadam dadadada dadada dadam...

And now I'm going out in the world to save our planet
And I ain't coming back until she's saved
I'm walking in the footsteps that young Peter made
And everybody is welcome to join, and sing with me

Dadadam dadadam dadadada dadada dadam...
Dadadam dadadam dadadada dadada dadam...
Dadadam dadadam dadadada dadada dadam...

Cheerful Little Earful


Cheerful Little Earful Composer(s): Billy Rose - Ira Gershwin - Harry Warren Performer(s): Tom Gerun & His Orch. and multiple other artists



There's a cheerful little earful
Gosh I miss it something fearful
And this cheerful little earful
Is the well known "I love you"

Stocks can go down, bus'ness slow down
But the milk and honey flow down
With a cheerful little earful
Of the well known "I love you"

In ev'ry play it's a set phrase
What the public get phrase
But as a pet phrase it'll do do do
Poo-pa-roo-it
Soft and cu-it
Make me happy, you can do it

With a cheerful little earful
Of the well known "I love you"

Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head


Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head
Composer(s): Hal David - Burt Bacharach First release: B.J. Thomas - 1969 Covered by multiple other artists

Versions In Other Languages: 1970 - Gocce Di Pioggia Su Di Me (Patty Pravo) 1970 - Regndråber Drypper I Mit Hår (Pedro Biker) 1970 - Ei Haittaa Sää (Johnny) 1973 - Toute La Pluie Tombe Sur Moi (Sacha Distel)



Raindrops keep falling on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothing seems to fit
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling

So I just did me some talking to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done
Sleeping on the job
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling

But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me won't defeat me
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red
Crying's not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining
Because I'm free
Nothing's worrying me

It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red
Crying's not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining
Because I'm free
Nothing's worrying me

One More Day (Eldrine)


One More Day
Composer(s): DJ BE$$ - DJ Rock - Mikheil Chelidze
First performance: Eldrine - 2011



After the day I met you there I am not the same
I try to sleep but nothing helps me feel insane
Passion game that I play gonna last another day
Another night I’ll be there in my dreams again and again

I wanna give it on fire
Uncover vicious desire
Abandon painful denial
Find every reason to stay

Another forbidden sensation
Another emotional flare
Down with the fake hesitation
Gee, yeah, - I am ready to pay
Pay for the hopeless despair
Gonna live one more day of my fate

Here I am standing with my determination
(I) remember when I used to be one of those silly fellows kind of “really don’t care”
and I realized all my thoughts and all my fears (around me)
you wanted to know what I felt and you got it right there
Turn around, all the words of regrets and seize the chance to find the way so I can be raised
I am lame, psycho from the brain, there is nothing I can do, that ‘s the part of the game

Out of such foolish state gonna’ find no other way

Make way cause it’s all about the shame

Feel no shame, cause I live another day again

I wanna give it on fire
Uncover vicious desire
Abandon painful denial
Find every reason to stay
Another forbidden sensation
One more emotional flare
Down with the fake hesitation
Hell, yeah, - I am ready to pay
Pay for the hopeless desire

Turn back in the days when you desired and craved and all the way you felt just like burned in the flame

Gonna live one more day of my fate

Cheer Up (The Sun Will Soon Be Shining)


Cheer Up (The Sun Will Soon Be Shining) Composer(s): Andrew B. Sterling - Bernie Grossman - Arthur Lange



Every little girl that's lonely
Every little girl that's sad
Needs a little word of consolation
Just to cheer her up and make her glad
So to every girl that's feeling blue
Here's a message that is meant for you

Every little girl that's waiting
Every little lonesome boy
Knows for every moment filled with sorrow
There's another moment filled with joy
Always think when you are feeling blue
Of the happiness in store for you

Cheer up
The sun will soon be shining
Cheer up
Although your heart is pining
Don't you sigh
Don't you cry
When you say Goodbye
Smile out loud
Every cloud has a silv'ry lining
Cheer up, and soon there'll be a Rainbow 'way up in the sky
Cheer up
The sun will soon be shining
When the clouds roll by

Raindrops


Raindrops
Composer(s): Dee Clark; Johnny Otis
Performer(s): Dee Clark



Oh raindrops so many raindrops
It feels like raindrops falling from my eye, eyes
Falling from my eyes

Since my love has left me
I'm so all alone
I would bring her back to me
But I don't know where she's gone
I don't know where she's gone

It must be a cloud in my head
Rain keeps falling from my eye, eyes
Oh no it can't be tears
For a man ain't supposed to cry

So it must be raindrops so many raindrops
It feels like raindrops falling from my eye, eyes
Falling from my eyes

It must be a cloud in my head
Rain keeps falling from my eye, eyes
Oh no it can't be tears
For a man ain't supposed to cry

So it must be raindrops so many raindrops
It feels like raindrops falling from my eye, eyes
Falling from my eyes

It keeps falling, falling from my eyes
Woo-oo-oo it keeps falling from my eyes

In Love For A While


In Love For A While
Composer(s): David Klein
First performance by: Anna Rossinelli - 2011



I looked into your eyes, and when I saw your smile
I knew right from the start: life is good for a while
Romance comes and goes, but a love like ours is here to stay
Each lovely night and sunny day

I love everything about you, I couldn't do without you
Whenever you're near me, all my days are on the bright side
But when I'm not around you, I have to find the way
To be with you each night and every day

Na nanana nanana... na nanana nanana...
Na nanana nananana... na nananana...
Na nanana nanana... na nanana nanana...
Nanana nanana nanana...

And as time goes by and we've seen stormy weather
I know that you and I, we're always getting better
But when I'm not around you, I have to find the way
To be with you each night and every day

Oh, I couldn't do without you, yeah
I have to find the way to... to be with you, no oh no no oh...
I love everything you do
I have to find the way to be with you

I know you and I are in love for a while

Cheer Down


Cheer Down Composer(s): George Harrison - Tom Petty First release by: George Harrison - 1989



I can see by your grin
That you're trembling within
It's all over town, cheer down
And the smile on your face
Is sometimes out of place
Don't mind, no frowns, cheer down

If your hair should fall
If your shares should crash
You'll get by even without getting a rash

There's no tears to be shed
I'm gonna love you instead
I want you around, cheer down

When your teeth drop out
You'll get by even without taking a bite

If your dog should be dead
I'm gonna love you instead
The world loves a clown, cheer down
I want you around, cheer down

Rainbows All Over Your Blues


Rainbows All Over Your Blues
Composer(s): John Sebastian
Performer(s): John Sebastian



I been waiting my time just to talk to you
You´ve been lookin´all down in the mouth
and down at your shoes
Well, baby, I came to give you the news
I´ll paint rainbows all over your blues

I heard you been spending
a lot of your time up in your room
And at night you been watchin´
the dark side of the moon
You don´t talk to nonody
if they don´t talk to you
So Buddy and me came here
to sing you a tune

"I give up" is all you´ve really got to say
It´s time to find a new life style
Cause this really ain´t the way

Let´s go for a bounce
on my trampoline
I can show you the prettiest mountains
that you´ve ever seen
You better run to your closet
and fish out your blue suede shoes
I´ll paint rainbows all over your blues

Fooling around

On the floor

Not losing you tonight

Cheek To Cheek


Cheek To Cheek ((Italian Version: Cheek To Cheek (Manlio Sgalambro) - 2001)) Composer(s): Irving Berlin First performance/First recording/First release by: Fred Astaire - 1935 Covered by multiple other artists



Heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Heaven, I'm in heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together dancing (swinging) cheek to cheek
Oh I love to climb a mountain
And reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill (boot) me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
Oh I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
(Come on and) Dance with me
I want my arm(s) about you
That (Those) charm(s) about you
Will carry me through...
(Right up) To heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing, out together dancing (swinging)
Out together dancing cheek to cheek

Rainbow Stew


Rainbow Stew
Composer(s): Merle Haggard
Performer(s): Merle Haggard;
Johnny Paycheck; Jason Ringenberg



There's a big, brown cloud in the city
And the countryside's a sin
The price of life is too high to give up
Gotta come down again
When the world wide war is over and done
And the dream of peace comes true
We'll all be drinkin' free Bubble-Up
Eatin' that rainbow stew

When they find out how to burn water
And the gasoline car is gone
When an airplane flies without any fuel
And the sunlight heats our home
One of these days when the air clears up
And the sun comes shinin' through
We'll all be drinkin' free Bubble-Up
An' eatin' that rainbow stew

Eatin' rainbow stew in a silver spoon
Underneath that sky of blue
We'll all be drinkin' free Bubble-Up
An' eatin' that rainbow stew

You don't have to get high to get happy
Just think about what's in store
When people start doin' what they oughta be doin'
Then they won't be booin' no more
When a President goes through the White House door
An' does what he says he'll do
We'll all be drinkin' that free Bubble-Up
And eatin' that rainbow stew

Eatin' rainbow stew in a silver spoon
Underneath that sky of blue
We'll all be drinkin' that free Bubble-Up
Eatin' that rainbow stew

Eatin' rainbow stew in a silver spoon
Underneath that sky of blue
We'll all be drinkin' free Bubble-Up
And eatin' that rainbow stew

Live It Up (Yüksek Sadakat)


Live It Up
Composer(s): Ergün Arsal - Kutlu özmakinaci
First performance by: Yüksek Sadakat - 2011



Here’s your favourite song on the radio
shake your head to the beat- it’s rock n roll
if you’re feeling the world has kicked you down
all you need is just to have a little fun

hey, it’s time to live it up
my friend, put the record on
sing it loud and let it out
life is beautiful
my friend let it out
life is beautiful

give yourself a break, come on and live it up
give yourself a break

driving on with no map to lead me on
eyes on the horizon and there’s no turning round
sometimes I feel, I feel I’m not alone
so let your colors shine right next to mine

hey, it’s time to live it up
my friend, put the record on
sing it loud and let it out
life is beautiful
my friend let it out
life is beautiful

give yourself a break, come on and live it up
give yourself a break

I say my friend life is beautiful
I say my friend life is beautiful

I say my friend… put the record on
sing it loud and let it out
life is beautiful
my friend let it out
life is beautiful

give yourself a break, come on and live it up
give yourself a break

Check-Out Time


Check-Out Time Composer(s): Burt Bacharach - Hal David Performer(s): Dionne Warwick



When I woke up this morning I was all alone
Stretched out in bed
Two hundred miles from home in some old motel
I don't know what's to become of me
I know that check-out time is three

I didn't mean to hurt him, he has so much pride
I never dreamed
I had to run and hide to this lonely room
I just hope he doesn't follow me
I know that check-out time is three

There's just no use
Why try to make an excuse
I've lost great news
Because to be his one
Well that would be just giving up on life

I've got to go on living, I just can't exist
I wanna taste all of the things I missed
For his tender love
Till the day love catches up with me
That's always check-out time at three

Rainbow People


Rainbow People
Composer(s): Andrew Gold



See all the rainbow people dance about
They're here to love you and to freak you out

Long tendril hair touching stars
Multicolored diamond shards will shower you with love

Hey Mr. plastic man all dressed in black
Incense and beads and flower power's back

The beautiful ones will turn you on
Gonna drop the flower bomb
Gonna drop the flower bomb
And blow your mind

I was thinkin' bout a groovy chick at Pandora's box
She was doing the pony eatin' magic paisley dots
Beautiful Capricorn said "man, this trip's so boss."

Just watch the rainbow people do their thing
Your soul can fly on lavender wings

You can be a butterfly
'Cause it's all inside your mind
It's all inside your mind
Whoa woah

And all the cosmic radiation
is blowing colors through the center of mind

Checking Out


Checking Out
Composer(s): Allan Holdsworth
Performer(s): Allan Holdsworth



You keep me hanging here
and you steal my time
while I wear my heart out on my sleeve
oh, on my sleeve

Me, I am falling down
come see me drown
Checking Out the bottles
at the bar...

Like to be away so far....

Me, wonder will the wind blow?

Am I chasing snow, though I'll never show
my sorrow's face, my sorrow's face?

Oh you, do you have to toy with
a bolted chest in my mind's chaotic
lumber room, rattling on fair fortune's loom?

Rainbow On The River


Rainbow On The River (aka It Happened In New Orleans)
Composer(s): Louis Alter; Paul Francis Webster
Performer(s): Perry Como;
and various other artists



There's a rainbow on the river
the skies are clearing . . .
You'll soon be hearing a heavenly song
all the day long . . .

When there's a rainbow on the river
the birds are mating . . .
They're busy dating each other above
happy in love . . .

Let's you and I go sailing
along the rippling stream . . .
Holding hands together
together we'll dream . . .

With a rainbow on the river
you get the feeling . . .
Romance is stealing right out of the blue
into your heart . . .
