Judy & Cie
Composer(s): Pierre Rapsat; Eric van Hulse
First release by: Pierre Rapsat - 1976
Judy, Judy n'est pas jolie
Judy, Judy celle qu'on oublie
(Que l'on oublie)
Dès que la soirée s'achève
Judy, Judy on te charrie
Judy, Judy on te marie
(On te marie)
Et toujours avec un rêve
Sous ton rimmel et tes bijoux
Tu prie Sainte Marilyne Monroe
D'être une poupée un beau joujou
Tu peux te plaindre
Enfin la femme
Judy, Judy se réfugie
Judy, Judy dans la magie
(dans la magie)
Des flacons si doux à boire
Judy la nuit
Fait un songe dérisoire
Un jour un soir changer de peau
Avec les pis sur les photos
À boire encore comme un roseau
Les yeux tout vides
Mais pas de rides
Judy, Judy & Compagnie
Judy, Judy qu'on sacrifie
(qu'on sacrifie)
Contre une poignée de neige
Pauvre Judy

Dodo do do do dodo
Do do dodo do dodo
Dodo dodo do do
Dodo do do do dodo
Do do do do dodo do
Dodo dodo dodo
I'm too high
I'm too high
But I ain't touched the sky
I'm too high
I'm too high
But I ain't touched the sky
She's a girl in a dream
She sees a four-eyed cartoon monster
On the T.V. screen
She takes another puff and says
"It's a crazy scene"
That red is green
And she's a tangerine
I'm too high
I'm too high
But I ain't left the ground
I'm too high
I'm too high
I hope I never ever come down
She's the girl in her life
But her world's a superficial paradise
She had a chance to make it big more than once or twice
But no dice
She wasn't very nice
Ooh
Dodo do do do dodo
Do do dodo do dodo
Do do do do do do
Dodo do do do dodo
Do do dodo do dodo
Dodo dodo
Dodo dodo
Dodo dodo
I'm too high
I'm too high
I'm so high
I feel like I'm about to die
I can't ever touch the sky
I'm too high
She's a girl of the past
I guess that I got to her at last
A did you hear the news about the girl today
She passed away
What did her friend say
They said she's too high
Too high
Can't hang around anyway...
Dodo do do do dodo
Do do dodo do dodo
do... do... do...
do... do... do...

I Just Called To Say I Love You
Composer(s): Stevie Wonder
First release by: Stevie Wonder - 1984
Covered by multiple other artists
Title In Other Languages:
1984 - Je T’appelle Pour Te Dire Que Je T’aime
1984 - Pour Te Dire Je T'aime
1984 - Ik Bel Jou, M'n Schat, Ik Mis Je
No New Year's Day to celebrate
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No first of spring, no song to sing
In fact, here's just another ordinary day
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
No April rain, no flowers' bloom
No wedding Saturday within the month of June
But what it is is something true
Made up of these three words that I must say to you
No summer's high, no warm July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze, no falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies
No Libra sun, no Hallowe'en
No giving thanks for all the Christmas joy you bring
But what it is, tho' old, so new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do

Composer(s): Ross MacLean - Arthur Richardson
Performer(s): Arthur Godfrey - 1947
and multiple other artists
Here's a silly ditty
You can sing it right away
Now, here is what you say
So sing it while you may
Here's a silly jingle
You can sing it night or noon
Here's the words, that's all you need
'Cause I just sang the tune:
Oh, I don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
I don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat
She's too fat
She's too fat for me
I get dizzy
I get numbo
When I'm dancing
With my Jum-Jum-Jumbo
I don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
I don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat
She's too fat
She's too fat for me
Can she prance up a hill?
No, no, no, no, no
Can she dance a quadrille?
No, no, no, no, no
Does she fit in your coupe?
By herself she's a group
Could she possibly
Sit upon your knee?
No, no, no
We don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
And she's too fat for me
But she's just right for me
We don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
Yeah, she's too fat
Much too fat
But she's just right for me
She's so charming
And she's so winning
But it's alarming
When she goes in swimming
We don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
But she's just right for me
So I sure want her, you can't have her
She's just right for me
But she's too fat!
She's not too fat!
She's just right for me!
She's a twosome
She's a foursome
If she'd lose some
I would like her more some
I don't want her, you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
She's too fat for me
I don't want her you can have her
She's too fat for me
She's too fat
Much too fat
She's too fat for me

C'est pas Noël c'est pas le printemps
Y'a pas de bougies, y'a pas de cadeaux sous les rubans
Pas de nouvelle sensationnelle
Aujourd'hui est un jour normal tout simplement
Y'a pas d'amis qui se marient
Pas de première, pas de soirée d'anniversaire
Mais il fallait que je te dise
Ces quelques mots qui chantent au plus profond de moi
Je t'appelle pour dire que je t'aime
Je voulais te dire simplement ça
Je t'appelle pour dire que je t'aime
Et je meurs ce soir de m'endormir sans toi
Y'a pas d'étoiles sur l'océan
De nuit d'été doucement caressée par le vent
C'est pas l'automne quand on s'étonne
D'un tourbillon d'oiseaux dans le soleil levant
Pas de secret à t'annoncer
Pas de surprise et pas de chœur dans une église
Mais il fallait que je te dise
Ces quelques mots qui chantent au plus profond de moi
Je t'appelle pour dire que je t'aime
Je voulais te dire simplement ça
Je t'appelle pour dire que je t'aime
Et je meurs ce soir de ne pas être avec toi
Avec toi, avec toi

Juca
Juca
Performer(s): Chico Buarque
Juca foi autuado em flagrante
Como meliante
Pois sambava bem diante
Da janela de Maria
Bem no meio da alegria
A noite virou dia
O seu luar de prata
Virou chuva fria
A sua serenata
Não acordou Maria
Juca ficou desapontado
Declarou ao delegado
Não saber se amor é crime
Ou se samba é pecado
Em legítima defesa
Batucou assim na mesa
O delegado é bamba
Na delegacia
Mas nunca fez samba
Nunca viu Maria

I Hung My Head
I Hung My Head
Composer(s): Sting
First release by: Sting - 1996
Covered by:
Blue Highway - 1999
Johnny Cash - 2002
Early one morning
With time to kill
I borrowed Jebb's rifle
And sat on a hill
I saw a lone rider
Crossing the plain
I drew a bead on him
To practice my aim
My brother's rifle
Went of in my hand
A shot rang out
Across the land
The horse, he kept running
The rider was dead
I hung my head
I hung my head
I set off running
To wake from the dream
My brother's rifle
Went into the sheen
I kept on running
Into the south lands
That's where they found me
My head and my hands
The sheriff he asked me
Why had I run
And then it came to me
Just what I had done
And all for no reason
Just one peace of lead
I hung my head
I hung my head
Here in the court house
The whole town was there
I see the judge
High up in the chair
Explain to the court room
What went through you mind
And we'll ask the jury
What verdict they find
I felt the power
Of death over life
I orphaned his children
I widowed his wife
I begged their forgiveness
I wish I was dead
I hung my head
I hung my head
I hung my head
I hung my head
Early one morning
With time to kill
I see the gallows
Up on a hill
And out in the distance
A trick of the brain
I see a lone rider
Crossing the plain
And he'd come to fetch me
To see what they'd done
And we'd ride together
To kingdom come
I prayed for god's mercy
For soon I'd be dead
I hung my head
I hung my head
I hung my head
I hung my head

Jubilation T. Cornpone
Jubilation T. Cornpone
Composer(s): Gene DePaul; Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): Stubby Kaye;
Elliot Lawrence; Shelly Manne
When we fought the Yankees and annihilation was near
Who was there to lead the charge that took us safe to the rear?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone
Old "Toot your own horn - pone"
Jubilation T. Cornpone, a man who knew no fear!
When we almost had 'em but the issue still was in doubt
Who suggested the retreat that turned it into a rout?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone
Old "Tattered and torn - pone"
Jubilation T. Cornpone, he kept us hidin' out!
With our ammunition gone and faced with utter defeat
Who was it that burned the crops and left us nothing to eat?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone
Old "September Morn - pone"
Jubilation T. Cornpone, the pants blown off his seat!
Hurray!
When it seemed like our brave boys would keep on fighting for months
Who took pity on them and ca-pit-u-lated at once?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone; Unshaven and shorn - pone
Jubilation T. Cornpone, he weren't nobody's dunce!
Who went re-con-noiter-ing to flank the enemy's rear
Circled through the piney woods, and disappeared for a year?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone
Old "Treat 'em with scorn - pone"
Jubilation T. Cornpone, the missing mountaineer!
Who became so famous with a reputation so great
That he ran for president and didn't carry a state?
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone
Old "Wouldn't be sworn - pone"
Jubilation T. Cornpone, he made the country wait!
Stonewall Jackson got his name by standing firm in the fray
Who was known to all his men as good ol' "Paper Mache?"
Why it was Jubilation T. Cornpone

Too Dumb For New York City
Too Dumb For New York City
Composer(s): Waylon Jennings - Basil McDavid
Performer(s): Waylon Jennings
When I first saw New York city
I was green down to the core
You could see my red neck glowing
For a mile or maybe more
Between the hustlers and the hookers
I must have made their day
'Cause they peeled me like an apple, Lawd
And sent me on my way
When you're pushed and shoved and almost mugged
It ain't no place to be
So I came to one conclusion
New York ain't for me
From sea to shining sea
And coast to coast
Somewhere in the middle
Is the land I love the most
I ain't California pretty
I can't survive the Great White Way
I'm too dumb for New York city
And too ugly for L.A.
I made my way to Tinseltown
To Hollywood and Vine
Out among those pretty faces
I'd surely find a place for mine
The way I walk, the way I talk
They'll hang on every word
But don't call me, I'll call you
Was all I ever heard
In L.A. what they're thinking
Ain't what they talk about
At least in New York city
There's never any doubt
From sea to shining sea
And coast to coast
Somewhere in the middle
Is the land I love the most
I ain't California pretty
I can't survive the Great White Way
I'm too dumb for New York city
And too ugly for L.A.
I'm too dumb for New York city
And too ugly for L.A.

I Hope You'll Stay
I Hope You'll Stay
Performer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan
I hope you'll stay and have a cup of tea
Oh I hope you'll play my monopoly
And I hope you'll do what the others do
You say you'd love me to
Make that cup of tea like I said I would
Make that cup of tea like I know I should
And not to think what the others think
So that when you say you like me
I'll be so overjoyed
I'll take the unemployed
I'll give them all a job
They sure could use one, my God!
Isn't it funny, no
A million out of work is really so good for nothing
When you think that there should be jobs by the dozen
But as often is the case
Nothing ever seems to take place
And not to think what the others think
So that when I say I like you
You'll say you like me too
You'll say you like me tooaa
That's all

Juanita (The Flying Burrito Brothers)
Juanita
Composer(s): Gram Parsons; Chris Hillman
Performer(s): The Flying Burrito Brothers
No affection were the words
That stuck on my mind
When she walked out on me
For the very last time
Oh, mama, sweet mama
Can you tell me what to say
I don't know what I've done
To be treated this way
In a cold dirty room
That's where I found myself
With a bottle of wine
And some pills on the shelf
Oh, mama, sweet mama
Can you tell me what to say
I don't know what I've done
And I'm feeling so ashamed
Then an angel appeared
She was just seventeen
In a dirty old gown
With a conscience so clean
Oh, mama, sweet mama
Can you tell me what to say
She's brought back the life
That I once threw away
She's brought back the life
That I once threw away

Too Drunk To Fish
Too Drunk To Fish
Composer(s): C.W. Kalb Jr. - Glenn Fortner
Performer(s): Ray Stevens
Recitation
Now me and Harold this buddy of mine decided that we'd go fishin' one time
So we drove to the lake with my brand new bass boat
I brought the fishin' poles the pork and beans
The saltine crackers and the canned sardines, and Harold brought all the booze one man could tote
While I loaded the boat and filled the tank and tried to get that motor to crank
Harold just sat there sippin' on a longneck beer
While I was steerin' the boat and tyin' the plugs he was drinkin' moonshine straight from the jug
and he was singing "Melancholy Baby" when we left the pier, huh, huh...
Oh, never go fishin' with a man who has been drinkin'
'Cause things just might not work out like you'd wish
Just leave that fool at home to drink
He'll be just as happy fishin' in the kitchen sink
Don't go near the water with a man too drunk to fish
Recitation
Well, I was concentratin', perfectin' my cast, hopin' to land a trophy bass
and Harold was havin' trouble tryin' to find the lake
Layin' there beside him at his feet was an anchor line coiled up real neat
Harold saw it went white as a ghost and hollered "Snake!!!!!!"
Well, he jumped straight up and began to yell
I said "Sit down Harold and behave yourself
Can't you see that ain't nothin' but a piece of rope"
Ha, ha...
Well, he was scared to death, plumb out of his mind tryin' not to get bit by that anchor line
and he grabbed my shotgun blew a hole in the bottom of the boat...
(Blam!!! Harold!!! Glup... glub... glub)
Never go fishin' with a man who has been drinkin'
'Cause things just might not work out like you'd wish
Just leave that fool at home to drink
He'll be just as happy fishin' in the kitchen sink
Don't go near the water with a man too drunk to fish
Recitation
Now too drunk to fish is too drunk to swim
So I was dog paddlin' and draggin' him and finally made it to a little sand bar just big enough for two
It was way after dark when that helicopter came with that big searchlight and callin' our names
And Harold looked up to the sky and said, "Lord is that you?"
Slowly
And then he knelt there in that heavenly glow and said
"Lord you know I ain't ready to go so if you pass me by tonight, oh... I will reform"
Then they threw down a raft and I paddled us home he never touched a drop from that moment on
Ya know the Lord works in mysterious ways his miracles to perform
Never go fishin' with a man who has been drinkin'
'Cause things just might not work out like you'd wish
Just leave that fool at home to drink
He'll be just as happy fishin' in the kitchen sink
Don't go near the water with a man too drunk to fish
Don't go near the water with a man too drunk to fish...

I Hope That I Don't Fall In Love With You
Composer(s): Tom Waits
First release by: Tom Waits - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists
Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you
'Cause falling in love just makes me blue
Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
Well the room is crowded, people everywhere
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand
Well I turn around to look at you, you light a cigarette
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
I can see that you are lonesome just like me, and it being late
You'd like some some company
Well I turn around to look at you, and you look back at me
The guy you're with has up and split, the chair next to you's free
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me
Now it's closing time, the music's fading out
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout
Well I turn around to look at you, you're nowhere to be found
I search the place for your lost face, guess I'll have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you

Juanita (Hoola Bandoola Band)
Juanita
Composer(s): Björn Afzelius
Performer(s): Hoola Bandoola Band
Juanita, hon var vacker som en gryning
När de möttes i Madrid för längesen
Och han var ung, han var en av många hundra
Som rest ner för att slåss för friheten
Och Juanita, hon var med de vid fronten
Och hennes glöd gav de andra kraft och mod
Och om kvällen sjöng hon sånger till gitarren
Om folket och den framtid
Som hon var beredd att försvara med sitt blod
Juanita, han ska alltid komma ´håg dig
För hans inre ska du alltid finnas kvar
Juanita, fast han aldrig kunde få dig
Kan han minnas hur stark och fin du var
Men de förlora', för fascisterna var starka
Och han for hem, med bara bitterheten kvar
Och Juanita måste gömma sig i bergen
Och fast han skrev så fick han aldrig några svar
Men åren gick, och också hjältar blir gamla
Och de får hoppas att de yngre vill ta vid
Han blev gift, och fick söner och döttrar
Och hans tid med Juanita
Blev liksom en drömbild från ett annat liv
Juanita, han ska alltid komma ´håg dig
För hans inre ska du alltid finnas kvar
Juanita, fast han aldrig kunde få dig
Kan han minnas hur stark och fin du var
Hans båda söner var i Spanien förra sommar'n
Och semestra´ på ett nybyggt lyxhotell
De hade träffat en gammal gumma ner vid stranden
När de gick ut för att festa sent en kväll
De hade pratat och berättat vad de hette
Och om sin far som en gång varit i Madrid
Då steg hon upp och sa: "Honom har jag älskat!
Men här springer ni och göder nåt
Han har bekämpat med risk för eget liv!
Så ge er av! Jag är trött på era svängar!
För ni fördröjer bara frihetens stund
Och ni borde veta, att turisternas pengar
Är som honung i förtryckarnas mun!"
Juanita, han ska alltid komma ´håg dig
För hans inre ska du alltid finnas kvar
Juanita, fast han aldrig kunde få dig
Kan han minnas hur stark och fin du var

Composer(s): Peter Allen - Jeff Barry
First release by: Peter Allen - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists
Maybe I hang around here a little more than I should
We both know I've got somewhere else to go
But I got somethin' to tell you that I never thought I would
That I believe you really ought to know
I love you, I honestly love you
You don't have to answer, I see it in your eyes
Maybe it was better left unsaid
But this is pure and simple and you must realize
That it's comin' from my heart and not my head
I love you, I honestly love you
I'm not tryin' to make you feel uncomfortable
I'm not tryin' to make you anything at all
But this feelin' doesn't come along ev'ry day
And you shouldn't blow the chance when you've got the chance to say
I love you, I love you, I honestly love you
If we both were born in another place and time
This moment might be ending in a kiss
But there you are with yours and here I am with mine
So I guess we'll just be leavin' it at this
I love you, I honestly love you, I honestly love you
Maybe I hang around here
A little more than I should
We both know I got somewhere else to go
But I got something to tell you
That I never thought I would
But I believe you really ought to know
I love you
I honestly love you
You don't have to answer
I see it in your eyes
Maybe it was better left unsaid
This is pure and simple
And you should realize
That it's coming from my heart and not my head
I love you
I honestly love you
I'm not trying to make you feel uncomfortable
I'm not trying to make you anything at all
But this feeling doesn't come along everyday
And you shouldn't blow the chance
When you've got the chance to say
I love you
I honestly love you
If we both were born
In another place and time
This moment might be ending in a kiss
But there you are with yours
And here I am with mine
So I guess we'll just be leaving it at this
I love you
I honestly love you
I honestly love you
