I Love Onions


I Love Onions
Composer(s): Donald Cochrane; John Hill
Performer(s): Susan Christie; Chicory Tip; Re-Bops



I don't like snails or toads or frogs
Or strange things living under logs
But mmm, I love onions!

I don't like to dance with Crazy Ted
He's always jumping on my head
But mmm, I love onions!

Onions, onions, la-la-la!
Onions, onions, ha-ha-ha!
Root doot doot-doot, doot doot doot!

Onions, onions, la-la-la!
Onions, onions, ha-ha-ha!
Root doot doot-doot, doot doot doot!

I don't like rain or snow or hail
Or Moby Dick the Great White Whale
But mmm, I love onions!

I don't like shoes that pinch your toes
Or people who squirt you with a garden hose
But mmm, I love onions!

Onions, onions, la-la-la!
Onions, onions, ha-ha-ha!
Root doot doot-doot, doot doot doot!

Onions, onions, la-la-la!
Onions, onions, ha-ha-ha!
Root doot doot-doot, doot doot doot!

Onion is a tuberous vegetable, and is a member of the genus Stinkus Delicioso
It was highly prized by the ancient Egyptian pharaohs and their friends and cousins
It causes watering of the eyes and rubifaction of the skin, but it is very, very tasty

Onions, onions, la-la-la!
Onions, onions, ha-ha-ha!
Root doot doot-doot, doot doot doot!

Onions, onions, la-la-la!
Onions, onions, ha-ha-ha!
Root doot doot-doot, doot doot doot!

How vewy, vewy cwood

Just Across The Bridge Of Gold


Just Across The Bridge Of Gold
Composer(s): Andrew B. Sterling; Harry Von Tilzer



Once we were poor, mother darling
Cried a sad child one day
Now we are rich but I'm lonely
Longing for sister May
Oft in my dreams I can see her
Kneeling beside my bed
Where is she now, mother tell me
Softly her mother said

We were so poor little darling
May always loved us so
And when he asked her to marry
She would not answer "No"
Her heart belonged to another
From him she had to part
For you and me, little darling
Your sister broke her heart

Just across the bridge of gold
Where the lights are shining bright
Just across the bridge of gold
There's an aching heart tonight
For the sake of those she loved
All her happiness she sold
And tonight we will pray
For your dear sister May
Just across the bridge of gold

Tous Les Enfants Chantent Avec Moi


Tous Les Enfants Chantent Avec Moi
Composer(s): Eddy Marnay - Bobby Goldsboro
Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu



On m'a toujours dit
Qu'en chantant avec son cœur
On faisait chanter le monde
Et je crois bien que c'est vrai, car

Dès que je chante cet air là
Je ne sais pas très bien pourquoi
Tous les enfants chantent avec moi
En travaillant en s'amusant
Et quelque fois même en dormant
Tous les enfants chantent avec moi
Je les entends reprendre en chœur
Et j'ai un petit coup au cœur
Quand les enfants font: la la la
Je me revois comme autrefois
Sur les bancs de mon école
C'est la fête autour de moi
La la la la...
Je me revois comme autrefois
Sur les bancs de mon école
C'est la fête autour de moi

Si je fredonne cette mélodie
En fa en sol ou même en mi
Tous les enfants font: la la la
Sous le grand soleil du midi
Ou même les pieds dans la pluie
Tous les enfants font: la la la
C'est difficile à expliquer
Mais j'ai le cœur tout chaviré
J'étais comme eux et j'aimais ça
Mais la musique me poursuit
Et aujourd'hui quand je chante
Même les grands chantent avec moi
la la la la...
Chantons puisqu'on aime la vie
Et pour que la vie nous aime
Venez chanter avec moi
la la la la...

I Love My Dog


I Love My Dog
Composer(s): Cat Stevens
Performer(s): Cat Stevens
and multiple other artists



I love my dog as much as I love you
But you may fade, my dog will always come through

All he asks from me is the food to give him strength
All he ever needs is love and that he knows he'll get

So, I love my dog as much as I love you
But you may fade, my dog will always come through

All the pay I need comes shining through his eyes
I don't need no cold water to make me realize that

I love my dog as much as I love you
But you may fade, my dog will always come through

Na, na, na, na, na, na, nana...

I love my dog as much as I love you
But you may fade, my dog will always come through

Na, na, na, na, na, na, nana...

I love my dog, Baby, I love my dog
Na, na, na...
I love my dog, Baby, I love my dog
Na, na, na...

Just A Song Before I Go


Just A Song Before I Go
Composer(s): Graham Nash
Performer(s): Crosby, Stills & Nash;
Inger Marie Gundersen; Russ Kunkel; Treehouse Project



Just a song before I go
To whom it may concern
Travelling twice the speed of sound
It's easy to get burned

When the shows were over
We had to get back home
And when we opened up the door
I had to be alone

She helped me with my suitcase
She stands before my eyes
Driving me to the airport
And to the friendly skies

Going through security
I held her for so long
She finally looked at me in love
And she was gone

Just a song before I go
A lesson to be learned
Travelling twice the speed of sound
It's easy to get burned

Tous Les Amoureux Chantent


Tous Les Amoureux Chantent
Composer(s): J. Jeepy - Marguerite Monnot - Carles R. Louiguy
Performer(s): Edith Piaf



Dans la rue
Tous les amoureux chantent
Tous les amoureux chantent
Des chansons de la rue
Par-dessus
Le soleil les inonde
Et la foule et le monde
Les noient dans la cohue

Dans la rue, Suzon avec Jean-Pierre
Chantent à leur manière
Des chansons de la rue
Elle est si blonde...
Aussi blonde qu'un rayon de soleil
Ses boucles vagabondent
Découpent sur le ciel
Des auréoles rondes
Et lui...
Un p'tit gars de chez nous
C'est tout
Ils n'ont pas quarante ans à eux deux
Vivent les amoureux de la rue!

Dans la rue
Tous les amoureux chantent
Tous les amoureux chantent
Des chansons de la rue
Par-dessus
Le soleil les inonde
Et la foule et le monde
Les noient dans la cohue

Mais qu'y a-t-il dans la cohue
Dans la cohue de la rue?
C'est Suzon qui court éperdue
Sans Jean-Pierre... sans Jean-Pierre...
Eperdue...
Dans la rue
Suzon pleure, pleure son amour
Attention...
Autos, vélos klaxonnent
On sonne, on siffle, on crie
Attention!
Un coup de freins...

Dans la rue
Tous les amoureux pleurent
Tous les amoureux pleurent
Dans la rue
Par-dessus
Le soleil et la ronde
La folle ronde
De monde qui rit
Car la cohue se moque des amoureux
Qui meurent
Qui meurent dans la rue...

I Love Music


I Love Music
Composer(s): Kenny Gamble; Leon Huff
Performer(s): The O'Jays



I love music, any kind of music
I love music, just as long as it's groovy

Makes me laugh, makes me smile
for the world when I'm with you boy
While we dance make romance
I'm enchanted by the things that you do

I love music, sweet sweet music
Long as it's swinging, all the joy that it's bringing

I'm so happy to be in complete harmony, I love you boy
And to hold you so close in my arms, I'm so glad you're mine
all mine mine

Nothing can be better than a sweet love song
So sweet so sweet so mellow
When you got the girl that you love in your arm
Oh honey I love you I love you yeah
Music is the healing force of the world
It's understood by every man woman boy and girl
And that's why that's why I say
I love music
Any kind of music
Long as it's swinging
All the joy that it's bringing

Music makes the atmosphere so fine
Lights down low just me and you baby you know
'Specially when you got a cold glass of wine
Mellow wine and song

I love music, sweet sweet music
I love music, just as long as it's groovy
I love I love I love I love I love I love music
I love I love I love I love I love I love music
I love music, any kind of music
I love music, just as long as it's groovy

Just A Simple Melody


Just A Simple Melody
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn; Saul Chaplin
Performer(s): The Andrews Sisters;
Tommy Dorsey; Ella Fitzgerald



You're just a simple melody
Designed to haunt your memory
It's bound to get you instantly

It sneaks up on you unaware
Before you even know it's there
You're swaying to its catchy air

Dancing with your favourite thrill
He will hold you closer still
And suddenly you both agree
That dancing can be heavenly
You're just a simple melody

It's just a simple thing
And it starts with a major swing
It's a tune that'll make you sing
And sing and sing and sing
First the southpaw flow
Bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo
Then it starts to go
Tah-dah-rah-dah, deh-dah-dah-lad-lah-dah-dah
Rocks you to-and-fro
Dah-dah-deh-dah-dah, dee-dah-dah-lah-dah

You know this melody is always haunting me
It delights you, it excites you
This melody will never let me be

It sneaks up on you unaware
Before you even know it's there
They're playing, you're swaying

It's just a simple melody
Designed to haunt your memory
It's bound to get you instantly
Dah-hah, dah-hah-hah, doo-duh-dah-doo-lah-hah

It sneaks up on you unaware
Before you even know that it's there
You're swaying to its catchy air

Dancing with your favourite thrill
He will hold you closer still
Trumpets ring, then let's sing
Rhythm swing
De-do-de-do-de-do-de
It's just a simple melody

There's a certain couple that I know

Sometimes I think I love you
Ah, just a little too much
You know you thrill me baby
With your magic touch

That's why I want you, honey
And love you like I do
I'm gonna scream and shout it
There ain't no doubt about it
That's why I love you like I do

Well, sometimes I think you kiss me
Ah, just a little too much
You drive me crazy, baby
With your magic touch
You make me feel so good
When the moon is shining bright
With our lips together
And you're squeezing me so tight
Well, I went steady once before
Thought I loved the girl next door
She stepped out on me you see
Couldn't be true
Well, I got over all my dreams
Time went by so fast it seems
Now I know I'll never get over you
Oh now...

Sometimes I think I love you
Ah, just a little too much

Tourner Les Hélicos


Tourner Les Hélicos
Composer(s): Francis Cabrel
Performer(s): Francis Cabrel



Toi tu passes ton temps à planquer dans tes tiroirs
Tes paquets de papier blanc, tes morceaux d'idées noires
Après tu défiles pour trois tickets de resto
Et puis tu pars tranquille dans ton wagon de métro
Elle, elle entend, elle entend...
Quand on te parle du diable, tu balances un peu de sel
Ton bel imperméable ne passe pas sous les échelles
T'as le chien qui bouge la tête à l'arrière de l'auto
T'as deux fois plus d'appétit à l'heure des infos
Quand elle, elle entend, elle entend...
Tourner les hélicos

C'est facile de baisser les cils
Tu sais que même le sang s'efface
Ces pauvres gens en exil
Ah, j'aimerais pas être à leur place
Y a des villes qui se réveillent sous les coups de roquettes
Tu sirotes ton whisky le cul sur ta moquette
Et même si quelquefois t'as de l'eau dans le regard
À la première pub qui passe tout le monde se marre
Elle, elle entend, elle entend...
Tourner les hélicos
Tourner les hélicos

Y a des villes qui se réveillent sous les coups de roquettes
Tu sirotes ton whisky le cul sur ta moquette
Tu redemandes en colère un peu de glace en morceaux
Pendant qu'à l'autre bout de la terre au fond de Soweito
Elle, elle entend, elle entend
Tourner les hélicos...
Elle entend
Tourner les hélicos...
Elle entend
Tourner les hélicos...
Tourner les hélicos, tourner les hélicos...

I Love Louisa


I Love Louisa
Composer(s): Howard Dietz; Arthur Schwartz
Performer(s): Fred Astaire
and multiple other artists



How I love a glass of beer
More beer!
Beer goes very good with beer
More beer!
When I'm drinking beer I'm thinking
Ach! Life is beer
But there's someone I love even more than beer
I love Louisa, Louisa loves me
When we rode on the merry-go-round
I kissed Louisa
and then Louisa, Louisa kissed me
We were so happy, so happy and free
Ach, ach, Mädchen
Beautiful Louisa
Ach, when I choose them
I never want to lose them
Someday Louisa
Louisa will be
More than just a Fräulein to me
A Frenchman loves a glass of vine
More beer!
The English think the vhiskey´s fine
More beer!
And when I comb off, all the foam off I drink a toast
To the Germans and the Mädchen, I love most
Ich liebe Louisa, Louisa liebt mich
Als wir führen auf dem Wege
Ich küsste Louisa und dann Louisa, Louisa küsste mich
Wir waren sehr glücklich, so glücklich und frei
Ach, ach, Mädchen
Beautiful Louisa
Ach, when I choose them
I never want to lose them
Ach, ach, Mädchen
Beautiful Louisa
Ach, when I choose them
I never want to lose them
Someday Louisa
Louisa will be
More than just a Fräulein to me
More beer! More beer!

to know each each very well

We could have it all

make them yours and mine
with just a little time

Turn! Turn! Turn!


Turn! Turn! Turn!
((French Version: Tourne, Tourne, Tourne (Sylvie Vartan))
Composer(s): Pete Seeger
Performer(s): The Byrds
and multiple other artists



To every thing, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep

To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones
A time to gather stones together

To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace
A time to refrain from embracing

To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven

A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time to love, a time to hate
A time for peace, I swear it's not too late

Just A Little Lovin'


Just A Little Lovin'
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): Dusty Springfield;
and various other artists



Just a little lovin', early in the mornin'
Beats a cup of coffee for startin' off the day
Just a little lovin', when the world is yawnin'
Makes you wake up feelin' good things are coming your way

This old world wouldn't be half as bad
It wouldn't be half as sad
If each and ev'rybody in it had
Just a little lovin', early in the mornin'
A little extra somethin' to kinda see them through
Nothin' turns the day on, really gets it dawnin'
Like a little bit of lovin'
From some lovin' someone like you

This old world wouldn't be half as bad
It wouldn't be half as sad
If each and ev'ry body in it had
Just a little lovin', early in the mornin'
A little extra somethin' to kinda see them through

Just For The Fun Of It (Carroll Gibbons)


Just For The Fun Of It
Composer(s): Heyman; Jacobson
Performer(s): Carroll Gibbons & The Savoy Orpheans



Just for the fun of it
Let's play love at first sight
Just for the fun of it
Let's find Heaven tonight
Just for a little lark
Let's see what our lips will do
When in the friendly dark
They meet in a sweet caress or two
Just for the laugh of it
I'll say wonderful you
You don't know half of it
Perhaps that may be true
Some thing's begun just for the fun
Are more lasting
Before you say that you'll have none of it
Just for the fun of it
Be mine

Won't you hold me just a little closer
