Jive After Five
Jive After Five
Composer(s): Carl Perkins
Performer(s): Carl Perkins
I work all day as a soda jerk
On my feet all the time and oh man, how they hurt
Don't make much, but I sure get the news
I don't have much time for gettin' the blues
My friends drop in for sodas and pop
There'll all talking, friends, about a new record hop
All day long I'm a-fillin' orders
Takin' in nickels, dimes and quarters
Cherry sodas and a chocolate shake
Strawberry sundaes and a lemon phosphate
Time to clean the fountain, 'cause it's almost five
You know me dad, after five I jive
I wanna jive, ah-ah-ah, I wanna jive
Ooh-ooh-ooh, I wanna jive, yes, after five
Oh-oh-oh, I wanna jive, man alive, after five
Well, I mop the floor and I wipe the counter
I just work here dad, I'm not the founder
I keep a-workin' and a-watchin' the clock
A-peepin' out the window for my baby to stop
We'll head out of town to a little night dive
Because you know me dad, after five I jive
All day long I'm a-fillin' orders
Takin' in nickels, dimes and quarters
Cherry cokes and tall root beer
A coat of vanilla with a chocolate smear
Time to clean the fountain, 'cause it's almost five
You know me dad, after five I jive
I wanna jive, I wanna jive
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, and then we jive
Yeah, I wanna jive, yes, man alive
Come on now cat, let's jive
Everybody rock, I wanna jive
Ah-ah-ah, I wanna jive
Ooh-ooh-ooh, I wanna jive
Yes, I wanna jive
Man alive, I wanna jive
Jive, jive after five

I Gave My Love A Diamond
I Gave My Love A Diamond
Composer(s): Bert Berns; Wes Farrell
Performer(s): Them & Van Morrison
I gave my love a diamond, a ten cent stone
I gave her lonely teardrops and nights alone
I gave my love a promise that had no truth
What good is a promise without no truth?
I gave my love a fortune in silver and gold
I gave it to her lie by lie by lie by lie that I had told
I gave my love a story that had no end
What good is a story that's got no end?
Tell me
I wrote her that we'd get married in about one year's time
I wrote her in a boxcar on the Memphis line
I sent my love a letter without no stamp - ha!
And what good is a letter without no stamp?
Goodbye baby
I'm feelin' so alone I'm movin' on
I ain't got no tall tale
Don't call me - I'll call you
See ya

Jivaro Song
Jivaro Song
Composer(s): Étienne Roda-Gil; Julien Clerc
Performer(s): Julien Clerc
Jivaro, Jivaro
Vide vite mon cerveau
Je t'en prie Jivaro
Réduis ma tête à zéro
Que j'échappe enfin aux femmes
À l'alcool et aux tripots
Je t'en prie Jivaro
Vide vite mon cerveau
Je t'en prie Jivaro
Réduis ma tête à zéro Jivaro
Le ciné, la télé et même le LSD
N'arrivent plus, Jivaro, à me faire décoller
Je t'en prie Jivaro
Vide vite mon cerveau
Je t'en prie Jivaro
Réduis ma tête à zéro
Jivaro, Jivaro,
Je vais exploser bientôt
Sous le poids de la vie, de ma femme, de mon auto
Je t'en prie Jivaro
Vide vite mon cerveau
Je t'en prie Jivaro
Réduis ma tête à zéro
Jivaro, Jivaro
Vide vite mon cerveau

I Gave My Love A Cherry
I Gave My Love A Cherry
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Eddy Arnold
and multiple other artists
I gave my love a cherry
That had no stone
I gave my love a chicken
That had no bone
I told my love a story
That had no end
I gave my love a baby
With no crying
How can there be a cherry
That has no stone?
And how can there be a chicken
That has no bone?
And how can there be a story
That has no end?
And how can there be a baby
With no crying?
A cherry when it's blooming
It has no stone
A chicken when in the shell
It has no bone
The story of how I love you
It has no end
A baby when it's sleeping
It's no crying

Jitterbug Waltz
Jitterbug Waltz
Composer(s): Richard Maltby Jr.; Fats Waller
Performer(s): Fats Waller
The night is getting on
The band is getting slow
The crowd is almost gone
But here we are still dancing
Nothing to do, but waltz
Our feet can barely move
My legs are yelling "Whoa"
But we're in such a groove
And love is still advancing
Nothing to do, but waltz
You can't suggest that we could go on jitterbugging
No bugging
We've nothing left for moves more strenuous than hugging
Just hugging
But we don't need much room to gently cut-a-rug in, we two
We're dead on our feet
And the sauce is repeatin'
But what can you do?
I tried another juice
And get from head to toe
My body's feeling loose
And warm and kind of supple
Nothing to do, but waltz
My man would slip away
My arms just won't let go
I think I'd like to stay
Till we're the only couple
Nothing to do, but waltz
You never know how far this sort of thing can get you
One never knows, one never, never knows
We're not as tired as we would like to think, I bet you
You stay up half the night with me, if I would let you
Yes
So come, let the waltz play again

I Found You In My Dreams
I Found You In My Dreams
Composer(s): Joseph George Gilbert; Michael Carr
Performer(s): Sam Browne
My heart was crying ‘til I found you in my dreams
My heart stopped sighing when I found you in my dreams
The moon above, your song of love created romance
Kisses so tender made me surrender, dear
But now I’m singing a song of a million themes
Your smile is bringing the joy of a million schemes
You’re my ideal, and now that I know you’re real
I bless the night that I found you in my dreams

J'Irai Où Tu Iras
J'Irai Où Tu Iras
Composer(s): Michel Berger
Performer(s): France Gall
Il y a des moments si beau
Qu'on voudrait y croire
Quand on veut les saisir
Quand on sait les voir
Et puisqu'il faut vivre
Etre ensemble ou se suivre
C'est beaucoup plus fort
Je suis peut etre celle qui te fermera les yeux
Peut etre qu'on se croise pour un instant ou deux
Dans ce qui nous entoure
Y a tellement d'élans d'amour
Qui se perdent
Là Là C'est un volcan qui gronde
Là Là C'ets un rêve qui s'en va
Là Là Un homme qui sort de l'ombre
Là Là Et se bat
Là Là On s'écroule sous le nombre
Là Là Mais les enfants sont rois
Là Là On est au bout du monde
Là Là Mais moi...
J'irai où tu iras
Quelquefois je suis l'eau
Quand tu voudrais le feu
Peut-être qu'on est seul
Même quand on est deux
Mais quand tout semble possible
Partager l'inaccessible
C'est beaucoup plus fort
Là Là C'est une passion qui sombre
Là Là On fait des feux de joie
Là Là On veut refaire le monde
Là Là On y croit
Là Là C'est la force qui tombe
Là Là Et fait régner sa loi
Là Là La colère et la fronde
Là Là Mais moi...
J'irai où tu iras

I Found The End Of The Rainbow
I Found The End Of The Rainbow
Composer(s): John Mears; Harry Tierney; Joseph McCarthy
Performer(s): The Big Apple Chorus
Thought I'd never find my happiness
I just watched the days roll by
But a ray of gladness came through clouds of sadness
like a little sunbeam from the sky
I found a rainbow of a golden hue
it led me to a land where dreams come true
Thought I'd never find my luck day
failure was my middle name
My imagination, thrilled with new sensation
I had a winning in life's game
here after I will always trust in fate
the sun will always shine for those who wait
I found the end of the rainbow
when you first smiled on me
all my happiness came with your caress and the world was fair to see
believe me, somebody way up in heaven just sent the sunshine through
and I found the end of the rainbow
when I found you sweet you

Performer(s): Big Joe Williams
Woke up in the mornin', jinx all 'round your bed
Woke up in the mornin', jinx all 'round your bed

Had the jinx so bad, till my woman's she's gone away with another man
Uh-uh, cryin' mercy, now, you don't know what mercy mean
Well, everybody cryin' mercy, don't know what mercy mean
It's the meanest jinx, baby, I want you to, please, come back to me
(Spoken):
'Cause the jinx might leave you
The hoodoo jinx in my bed

Yippee yay
There’ll be no wedding bells for today

Oh, Lillie Belle

This is why I never fell
I got spurs that jingle, jangle, jingle

And they sing, "Oh, ain't you glad you're single"
And that song ain't so very far from wrong
Instrumental Finish (Nat Gonella’s recording)

As I go ridin' merrily along
And they sing, "Oh, ain't you glad you're single"
And that song ain't so very far from wrong
So I'll jingle on along

I Found Somebody
Composer(s): Glenn Frey; J. Tempchin
Performer(s): Glenn Frey; Dave Edwards; Petrella
I never thought it could happen
It was the furthest thing from my mind
I just turned my back on a sad love affair
Was try'n' to leave it all behind
That's when I met you
I just couldn't say no
One look in your eyes
And I said here I go
I found somebody
I found somebody to love
I found somebody
I found somebody to love
I'd seen so much deceivin'
I almost stopped believin'
I'd ever fall in love again
I was runnin' around hidin' my heart
Fakin' it with all of my friends
I was down on my luck
That's when you came along
You put me back on my feet
You got me singin' this song
I found somebody
I found somebody to love
I found somebody
I found somebody to love
And she loves me in the midnight hour
You know ever since I found you
And put my arms around you
I don't need a doggone thing
You know that ev'ry day is such a beautiful day
I want the whole world to dance and sing
So don't you dare hang your head
Don't you dare be blue
If it can happen to me
It can happen to you
And you'll be singin' this song
I found somebody
I found somebody to love
I found somebody
I found somebody to love

I Found Out
I Found Out
Composer(s): John Lennon
First release by: John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band - 1970
I told you before stay away from my door
Don't give me that brother, brother, brother
The freaks on the phone won't leave me alone
So don't give me that brother, brother, brother
I found out
Now that I showed you what I been through
Don't take nobody's word what you can do
There ain't no Jesus gonna come from the sky
Now that I found out I know I can cry
I found out
Some of you sitting there with your cock in your hand
Don't get you nowhere, don't make you a man
I heard something bout my ma and my pa
They didn't want me so they made me a star
I found out
Old hare Krishna got nothing on you
Just keep you crazy with nothing to do
Keep you occupied with pie in the sky
There ain't no Guru who can see thru your eyes
I found out
I been through junkies, I been through it all
I've seen religion from Jesus to Paul
Don't let them fool you with dope and cocaine
Can't do you no harm to feel your own pain
I found out

Jinetes En El Cielo
Jinetes En El Cielo
English Title: (Ghost) Riders In The Sky
Composer(s): Stan Jones; A. Alpin
Performer(s): Raphael;
and various other artists
Leyenda de un jinete que galopa sin cesar
Cumpliendo la condena de cruzar la eternidad
Por traicionar en vida lo que fue su gran amor
Sembrando llantos y dolor en otro corazon
Jinetes por el cielo van y no se detendran
Detras de aquel jinete van diablos en troquel
Que gritan y castigan sin descanso a su corcel
Son tantos los amores que en su vida traiciono
Que nunca encontrara perdon en otro corazon
Jinetes por el cielo van y no se detendran
Pusieron rosas rojas en memoria de su amor
El cielo se ha encendido con un bello resplandor
Y ya la enamorada le ha sabido perdonar
Borro su culpa la oracion, por fin descansara
Jinetes por el cielo van y no se detendran
Galopan sin poder parar jamas

I Found Love
Composer(s): Gary Duncan; Alonzo Tucker; Jackie Wilson
Performer(s): Quicksilver Messenger Service
Been waiting here a long long time
pain and trouble on my mind
You came along and made me see
oh you lifted me
Shot up everything that our money could buy
over and over, tryin' to find out why
I was a sinkin' ship on a stormy sea
oh I found love
I found love in a baby's smile
I found love in an old man's eye
I found love in a lover's kiss
ooh I found love
All my friends thought I was cryin'
it's strange to see a good man going down
I gave all I had to give
and you came along, taught me how to live
I want to thank you each and every day
thank you baby, for showin' me the way
I was a sinkin' ship on a stormy sea
oh I found love, love, love, I found love ...

Wish that I were holdin' Jimmy's girl

And though it's make-believe
I pretend she's in love with me-ee
How I long for Jimmy's girl
But her love is taken
So my heart is breakin'
For Jimmy's girl (Jimmy's girl)

Although it's make-believe
I pretend she's in love with me-ee

But her love is taken
So my heart is breakin'

How my heart is breakin'

I Found A Rose (In The Devil's Garden)
I Found A Rose (In The Devil's Garden)
Composer(s): Willy Raskin; Fred Fisher
Lost in a city that has no pity I found a rose,
Little lonesome rose
Where smiling faces, hide broken hearts
In happy places, where sorrow starts
Some body's sister, whose folks have missed her
A mother dear
She's a lonesome tear
For little baby, who went away
She's kneeling maybe, just now to pray
I found a rose, in the devil's garden
Wandring alone, little lonesome rose
For her the sun is never shining
For her the clouds have, no silver lining
I found a rose, in the devil's garden
Playing the game, of the Moth and Flame
Beneath the powder and paint
Maybe the heart of a saint
Where sorrow grows, I found a rose
I found a rose, in the devil's garden
Wandring alone, little lonesome rose
For her the sun is never shining
For her the clouds have, no silver lining
I found a rose, in the devil's garden
Playing the game, of the Moth and Flame
But maybe deep in her heart
She's thinking of a new start
Where sorrow grows, I found a rose
