I Love To Boogie


I Love To Boogie
Composer(s): Marc Bolan
Performer(s): Marc Bolan & T. Rex
and multiple other artists



We love to boogie, we love to boogie
Jitterbug boogie, Bolan pretty boogie
We love to boogie on a Saturday night

Belinda Mae Fender's got a Cadillac Bone
Jenny's lost her cherry walking
all the way home
The passions of the Earth blasted its mind
Now it's neat sweet ready for
the moon based grind

We love to boogie
We love to boogie on a Saturday night
We love to boogie
High school boogie, jitterbug boogie
We love to boogie on a Saturday night

You rattlesnake out with your tailfeathers high
Jitterbug left and smile to the sky
With your black velvet cape
We love to boogie, we love to boogie
Jitterbug boogie, Bolan pretty boogie
We love to boogie on a Saturday night
and your stovepipe hat
Be-bop baby the dance is where it's at

I love to boogie
Yes I love to boogie on a Saturday night
I said I love to boogie, I love to boogie
Jitterbug boogie, I love to boogie
I love to boogie on a Saturday night

I love to boogie

Just Beyond The Moon


Just Beyond The Moon
Composer(s): Jeremy Slate
Performer(s): Tex Ritter



(I'll walk just beyond the moon
Where I'll stop and wait for you)

(Spoken)
My mother and my father were in love for fifty years
So when Dad died, we wondered why my Mother shed no tears
We asked her once about it, but she wouldn't tell us why
Instead she'd walk outside each night and smile up at the sky
Then just before she left us, she called us to her side
She told us what my father said to her, just before he died

(Singing)
I remember when you said you'd never leave me
Through these golden years I've kept the same vow, too
But now that I am going, please don't leave me
I'll walk just beyond the moon, then I'll stop and wait for you

You can look up every night, and you'll see me light the lights
Where I'll watch for you to join me some day soon
We'll go looking through the stars, for the Heaven that is ours
And I know we'll find it soon, somewhere just beyond the moon

(I'll walk just beyond the moon
Where I'll stop and wait for you)

I'll just sit there by a star, and I'll watch you from afar
Till I see you walking toward me some day soon
Then together hand-in-hand, we'll find our Promised Land
And we'll settle down forever, darling, just beyond the moon

(I'll walk just beyond the moon
Where I'll stop and wait for you)

Tout Le Jour, Toute La Nuit


Tout Le Jour, Toute La Nuit
((Adapted from: Night And Day (Fred Astaire) - 1932))
Composer(s): Cole Porter
Performer(s): Damia - 1937
and multiple other artists



Comme le tam-tam qui résonne
Dans la jungle sombre, au lion
Comme le tic-tac monotone
Qui le temps marque le point
Comme cette pluie obsédante
Qui s'acharne sur toit
Sans arrêt ce rêve fou
Me hante-toi, toi, toi

Tout le jour, toute la nuit
Rien que toi, toujours, toujours
J'en suis éblouie
Que tu sois au loin, qu'importe
Puisqu'en moi tendrement
Je t'emporte
Oh, mon amour
Nuit et jour
Sans répit
Le jour la nuit
Le désir comme un démon
Me hante et me poursuit
Dans le tourbillon du monde
La solitude profonde
Je suis à toi, rien qu'a toi

Nuit et jour
Au plus profond de moi
Un feu brûle qui me consume
Et ne brûle que pour toi
Mon tourment ne finira
Que quand tu me permettras de t'aimer
De t'aimer toujours
Nuit et jour
Nuit et jour

He's diff'rent from the other boys I know...

Some have ginger and some have snap

Taste like taters or taste like meat
But my guy, what a flavour

Some have money and some read books
But my guy, he's got so much
Ooh Bang Jiggly Jang! (Ding! Ding!)

Just Because I'm A Woman


Just Because I'm A Woman
Composer(s): Dolly Parton
Performer(s): Dolly Parton



I can see you're disappointed
By the way you look at me
And I'm sorry that I'm not
The woman you thought I'd be
Yes, I've made my mistakes
But listen and understand
My mistakes are no worse than yours
Just because I'm a woman

So when you look at me
Don't feel sorry for yourself
Just think of all the shame
You might have brought somebody else

Just let me tell you this
Then we'll both know where we stand
My mistakes are no worse than yours
Just because I'm a woman

Now a man will take a good girl
And he'll ruin her reputation
But when he wants to marry
Well, that's a different situation

He'll just walk off and leave her
To do the best she can
While he looks for an angel
To wear his wedding band

Now I know that I'm no angel
If that's what you thought you'd found
I was just the victum of
A man that let me down

Yes, I've made my mistakes
But listen and understand
My mistakes are no worse than yours
Just because I'm a woman

No, my mistakes are no worse than yours
Just because I'm a woman

Performer(s): Dalida
and multiple other artists



Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

Tout l'amour que j'ai pour toi
Est brûlant comme un feu
Il est grand et plein d'éclat
C'est si bon d'être heureux
Mes cris de joie
Je te les dois
Car rien pour moi
N'est plus que toi
Même quand tu n'es pas là
Tu es présent, bien présent

Tout l'amour que j'ai pour toi
Est plus fort chaque jour
Je crois bien qu'il durera
Pour la vie, pour toujours
Quelle obsession, que ma passion
Je dis non
Tout bas, tout bas
Au moindre bruit de tes pas
Mon cœur bat, mon cœur bat

Je veux crier au monde entier
Que rien ne peut nous séparer
Tout l'amour que j'ai pour toi
C'est vraiment, tout pour moi...

I love the woman, an' learned a lesson that I can't forget
Yes, I love the woman, an' learned a lesson that I can't forget

Just Because
Composer(s): Sydney Robin;
Bob Shelton; Joe Shelton
Performer(s): Brenda Lee;
and various other artists



Well, well, well
Just because you think you're so pretty
And just because your momma thinks you're hot
Well, just because you think you've got something
That no other girl has got
You've caused me to spend all my money
You laughed and called me old Santa Claus
Well, I'm telling you
Baby, I'm through with you
Because, well well, just because

Well, well, well
There'll come a time when you'll be lonesome
And there'll come a time when you'll be blue
Well, there'll come a time when old Santa
He won't pay your bills for you

You've caused me to lose all my women
And now, now you say we are through
Well, I'm telling you
Baby, I was through with you
A long long time ago

Well, just because you think you're so pretty
And just because your mama thinks you're the hottest thing in town
Well, just because you think you've got something
That nobody else has got
You've caused me to spend all of my money
Honey, you laughed and called me your old Santa Claus
Well, I'm telling you I'm through with you
Because, well well, just because

Tout Fout le Camp


Tout Fout le Camp
Composer(s): Raymond Asso - Robert Juel
Performer(s): Edith Piaf; Damia



Nous sommes maîtres de la terre
Nous nous croyons des presque Dieu
Et pan! le nez dans la poussière
Qu'est-ce que nous sommes: Des pouilleux

Et là-haut les oiseaux
Qui nous voient tout petit, si petits
Tournent, tournent sur nous
Et crient: Au fou! au fou!

Nous nageons tous dans la bêtise
Et l'on invente des drapeaux
On met des couleurs aux chemises
Sous la chemise y a la peau

Et là-haut les oiseaux
Qui nous voient tout petit, si petits
Tournent, tournent sur nous
Et crient: Au fou! au fou!

Ecoutez le monde en folie
Vive la mort, vive la fin
Pas un ne crie vive la vie
Nous sommes tous des assassins

Et là-haut les oiseaux
Qui nous voient tout petit, si petits
Tournent, tournent sur nous
Et crient: Au fou! au fou!

Et toute la terre qui gronde
Bonne saison pour les volcans
On va faire sauter le monde
Cramponnez-vous, tout fout l'camp!

Et là-haut les corbeaux
Qui nous voient tout petit, si petits
Tournent comme des fous
Et crient: A nous! A nous!

Et pourtant les filles sont belles
Et y a du beau soleil dehors
Pourquoi se creuser la cervelle
Au diable tout, vivons d'abord

Et là-haut les corbeaux
Qui nous voient tout petit, si petits
Crient : les hommes sont fous
Ils se foutent de nous!

I Love The Whole United States


I Love The Whole United States
Composer(s): Roger Lewis; Ernie Erdman



A soldier from the South and a soldier from the North
who fought each other back in sixty-two
Met on the street one day
one wore a suit of grey
The other wore a tattered suit of blue
One said he loved the South the best
the other said the North
They argued till the tears came to their eyes
But Dixie's son, a boy in blue said
Gentlemen the war is through
So love the flag no matter where it flies

The soldier from the North and the soldier from the South
were listening to the soldier boy in blue
They shook each other's hand, and seemed to understand
That they should love old Uncle Sammy too
They marched together down the street as comrades ought to do
The war is over and they were satisfied
And Dixie's son, the boy in blue
at last was mighty happy too
And to himself again he softly sighed

I love the whole United States
from Boston Massachusetts to Frisco's golden gates
the cotton fields of Dixie
the Maple trees of Maine
the mountains of Virginia
I love them all the same
I love the fields of Illinois and Georgia
where my sweetheart waits
every city large and small in Yankeeland
I love them all
I love the whole United States

Just Because (Lloyd Price)


Just Because
Composer(s): Lloyd Price
Performer(s): Lloyd Price;
and various other artists



Just because you left and said goodbye
Do you think that I will sit and cry
Even if my heart should tell me so
Darling I would rather let you go

Just because you think that you're so smart
Going around and breaking lovers hearts
Before I let this thing happen to me
Darling I would rather swim the sea

I know you think you're smart
Just going around breaking lovers hearts

Just because I want someone who's kind
With a heart as good and pure as mine
But maybe I am asking far too much
Darling please don't ever break my heart

I know you think you're smart
Just going around breaking lovers hearts

Just because I want someone who's kind
With a heart as good and pure as mine
But maybe I am asking far too much
Darling please don't ever break my heart

Tout Finit À Saint-Tropez


Tout Finit À Saint-Tropez
Composer(s): Guy Béart
Performer(s): Guy Béart



Je croyais que tout commence
Je croyais que tout commence
Au village des romances
Au village des romances
Vois-tu je m'étais trompé
Et tout finit à Saint-Tropez

Comme un panier sous son anse
Comme un panier sous son anse
Le petit port se balance
Le petit port se balance
Sur des rythmes syncopés
Et tout finit à Saint-Tropez

Sur la plage en somnolence
Sur la plage en somnolence
Quel est ce corps sans défense
Quel est ce corps sans défense
C'est le tien noirci trempé
Et tout finit à Saint-Tropez

La mer était violence
La mer était violence
Tu as perdu connaissance
Tu as perdu connaissance
Une vague t'a frappée
Et tout finit à Saint-Tropez

Les pins sont noyés d'essence
Les pins sont noyés d'essence
A cent quarante j'avance
A cent quarante j'avance
Notre amour a dérapé
Et tout finit à Saint-Tropez
Notre amour a dérapé
Tout finit à Saint-Tropez

Tout Ce Que J'aime


Tout Ce Que J'aime
Composer(s): Philippe Pauletto - Jean Ferrat
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat



La mer et les oiseaux envolés du sommeil
La pierre du seuil usée par le pas des saisons
Roses d'écume et fruits vermeils
Le vent rêvant sur ma maison
Le feu qui veille
L'or des poissons
Le soleil
Les moissons

Tout ce que j'aime
Tout ce que j'aime au creux des mains

Combats d'hier combats toujours recommencés
Premier cri de la vie graines de l'avenir
Un pas de plus vers la beauté
Rêves réels qui vont fleurir
L'espoir gagné
Savoir s'unir
La bonté
Rebâtir

Tout ce que j'aime
Tout ce que j'aime mène à demain

Le goût de vivre enfin sans mesure sans frontières
Les raisons de l'amour les raisons de la vie
Deux bras comme un grand livre ouvert
Une chanson contre l'oubli
Justes colères
Mystères conquis
La lumière
L'infini

Tout ce que j'aime
Tout ce que j'aime t'appartient

I Love The Way That You've Been Lovin' Me


I Love The Way That You've Been Lovin' Me
Composer(s): Ricci Mareno; Gordon Galbraith
Performer(s): Roy Drusky



(I love the way that you've been loving me)

I know this may not come as a surprise
You surely must have seen it in my eyes
Darlin', it's plain as can be
I love the way that you've been lovin' me

There's so much that my heart would like to say
And though my lips have never found a way
Each touch explains tenderly
I love the way that you've been lovin' me

Others may search for heaven
But darlin', I just can't see
Why I should search for heaven
When heaven is mine constantly

Though I've become a prisoner of your love
I swear by all the stars that shine above
I never want to be free
I love the way that you've been lovin' me

I never want to be free
I love the way that you've been lovin' me

Just A-Whistlin' And A-Whittlin'
Composer(s): Ralph Rainger; Leo Robin
Performer(s): Dinah Shore



I wanna live kinda lazy life
Under the bright blue sky
Just a-whistlin' and a-whittlin'
And a-watchin' the world go by
Out where the hills kinda hazy like
Dream in the sun all day
I'm a-whittlin' and belittlin'
Any trouble that comes my way
I ain't like the folks that foller
After rainbows that they can't find
I ain't got but just one dollar
But I've still got my peace of mind
Now that the world's kinda crazy like
Lucky indeed am I
Just a-whistlin' and a-whittlin'
And a-watchin' the world go by

I ain't like the folk that foller
After rainbows that they just can't seem to find
I ain't got but just one dollar
But I've still got my peace of mind
Now that the world's kinda crazy like
Lucky, lucky am I
Just a-whistlin' and a-whittlin'
Just lookin' at the world through rose coloured glasses
And a-watchin' the world go by

"Que de fois je pensais que je rentrais chez nous
et si je ne l'ai pas encore fait, ce n'est pas par ce que l'amour est fini
moi, moi je t'aime encore tu sais, non, je ne l'ai pas fait seulement
par ce que j'avais peur de te trouver changé, mais ce soir, si je devais rentrer..."

Tant d'autres m'ont aimés et pourtant tu sais bien
Qu'une femme comme moi n'a jamais fait l'amour
L'amour sans amour

Tout au plus tu me blesseras
Puis tu me chasseras comme si je n'étais rien
Qu'une ombre du passé qui ne t'as rien laissé
Que je n'étais qu'un genre, qui t'amusai un peu
Alors je m'en irai, et tu me retiendras
Pour te faire pardonner, tu m'ouvriras les bras
Tu me diras je t'aime, je n'ai aimé que toi
Si c'était vrai mon Dieu, mon Dieu si c'était vrai

Tout au plus, elle sera là
La femme qui a pris ma place dans ta vie
Et alors... Alors

Just A'Wearyin' For You


Just A'Wearyin' For You
Composer(s): Frank Stanton; Carrie Jacobs-Bond
Performer(s): Johnny Hartman;
and various other artists



Just a’wearyin' for you
All the time a’feelin' blue
Wishin' for you, wonderin' when
You’ll be coming home again
Restless don’t know what to do
Just a’wearyin' for you

Morning comes, the birds awake
Seem to sing so for your sake
But there’s sadness in the notes
That come trillin' from their throats
Seem to feel a sadness too
Just a’wearyin' for you

Evening comes I miss you more
When the dark gloom’s round the door
Seems just like you ought to be
Here to open it for me
Latch goes tinkling, thrills me through
Sets me wearyin’ for you
Just a’wearyin' dear for you
