Kingston Town (Harry Belafonte)
Kingston Town
Performer(s): Harry Belafonte
Down the way, where the nights are gay
and the sun shines daily on the mountain top
I took a trip on a sailing ship
and when I reach Jamaica I made a stop
But I'm sad to say
I'm on my way
won't be back for many a day
My heart is down
my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town
Sounds of laughter everywhere
and the dancing girls swing to and through
I must declare my heart is there
thou I've been from Maine to Mexico
But I'm sad to say
I'm on my way
won't be back for many a day
My heart is down
my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town
At the market you can hear
ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
acky rice, salt, fish are nice and the rum is fine any time a year
But I'm sad to say
I'm on my way
won't be back for many a day
My heart is down
my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town
Down the way, where the nights are gay
and the sun shines daily on the mountain top
I took a trip on a sailing ship
and when I reach Jamaica I made a stop
But I'm sad to say
I'm on my way
won't be back for many a day
My heart is down
my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town
Sad to say
I'm on my way
won't be back for many a day
My heart is down
my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town

Two Heads
Two Heads
Composer(s): Grace Slick
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane
You want two heads on your body
And you've got two mirrors in your hand
Priests are made of brick with gold crosses on a stick
And your nose is too small for this land
Inside your head is your town
Inside your room your jail
Inside your mouth the elephant's trunk
And booze, the only key to your bail
Two heads can be put together
And you can fill both your feet with sand
No one will know you've gutted your mind
But what will you do with your bloody hands?
Your lions are fighting with chairs
Your arms are incredibly fat
Your women are tired of dying alive
If you've had any women at that
Wearing your comb like an ax in your head
List'ning for signs of life
Children are sucking on stone and lead
And chasing their hoops with a knife
New breasts and jewels for the girl
Keep them polished and shining
Put a lock on her belly at night, sweet life
For no child of mine
Want two heads on your a- a- body
And you've got two mirrors in your ha-a-a-a-and-a

Ich Denk An Dich
Ich Denk An Dich
((French Version: Ce Sera Moi (Nana Mouskouri))
Composer(s): Christoph Busse - A. Taylor
Performer(s): Nana Mouskouri
Wenn der leichte Wind leise durch das Tal weht
Und wenn Du den Adler fliegen siehst
Wenn ein weicher Regen Tränen auf Dein Herz legt
Denk ich an Dich, denk ich an Dich
Bin ohne Dich in diesem fremden Land
Auf einem Weg dem ich nicht folgen kann
So viele Zeichen an der Wand keines ist von Dir
Ich träum mich langsam fort von hier eh ich mich verliere
Wenn der leichte Wind leise durch das Tal weht
Und wenn Du den Adler fliegen siehst
Wenn ein weicher Regen Tränen auf Dein Herz legt
Denk ich an Dich, denk ich an Dich
Und wenn Du schläfst dann halt ein Fenster auf für mich
Denn ich bin der Wind der durch Dein Zimmer fliegt
Hör auf jeden Flügelschlag denn der Adler das bin ich
Und an einem Morgen irgendwann komm ich selbst zurück
Wenn der leichte Wind leise durch das Tal weht
Und wenn Du den Adler fliegen siehst
Wenn ein weicher Regen Tränen auf Dein Herz legt
Denk ich an Dich, denk ich an Dich
Verliebte schau'n bei Nacht die Sterne an
Vereint in dem was auch der andre sehen kann
Ich hab keine Sterne hier nur Lichter dieser Stadt
Blenden meine Augen so und jagen durch die Nacht
Wenn der leichte Wind leise durch das Tal weht
Und wenn Du den Adler fliegen siehst
Wenn ein weicher Regen Tränen auf Dein Herz legt
Denk ich an Dich, denk ich an Dich
Denk ich an Dich, denk ich an Dich

If I had the whole world

And a palace and everything, yeah
And now I am king
And my queen will come at dawn
She`ll be waiting in Kingston Town

Two Glasses, Joe
Two Glasses, Joe
Composer(s): Cindy Walker
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb; Leon Rausch
Set up two glasses, Joe
And turn the jukebox low
And let me set here and reminisce
While, I pretend that she is still sitting here with me
The way she did not long ago
We use to paint the town red
And dance until two
I don’t paint it red no more
But I’m paintin’ it blue
He stole her love, I know
But he can’t stop me, Joe
From having just a dream or two
Setup two glasses, Joe
Maybe you didn’t know
But there’s a memory in the room
A memory that walks
A memory that talks
And haunts me everywhere I go
I’m just a fool that loves her
And will till I die
From the very first hello until the last goodbye
And this is it you know
So, fill Two Glasses, Joe
Then leave me here alone to cry

Ich Bin Von Kopf Bis Fuss Auf Liebe Eingestellt
English Title: Falling In Love Again - 1930
Composer(s): Friedrich Holländer
First recording/First release by: Marlene Dietrich - 1929/1930
Covered by multiple other artists
Ein rätselhafter Schimmer
Ein "je ne sais-pas-quoi"
Liegt in den Augen immer
Bei einer schönen Frau
Doch wenn sich meine Augen
Bei einem vis-à-vis
Ganz tief in seine saugen
Was sprechen dann sie?
Ich bin von Kopf bis Fuß
Auf Liebe eingestellt
Denn das ist meine Welt
Und sonst gar nichts
Das ist, was soll ich machen
Meine Natur
Ich kann halt lieben nur
Und sonst gar nichts
Männer umschwirr'n mich
Wie Motten um das Licht
Und wenn sie verbrennen,
Ja dafür kann ich nicht
Ich bin von Kopf bis Fuß
Auf Liebe eingestellt
Ich kann halt lieben nur
Und sonst gar nichts
Was bebt in meinen Händen
In ihrem heißen Druck?
Sie möchten sich verschwenden
Sie haben nie genug
Ihr werdet mir verzeihen
Ihr müßt' es halt versteh'n
Es lockt mich stets von neuem
Ich find' es so schön!
Ich bin von Kopf bis Fuß
Auf Liebe eingestellt
Denn das ist meine Welt
Und sonst gar nichts
Das ist, was soll ich machen
Meine Natur
Ich kann halt lieben nur
Und sonst gar nichts
Männer umschwirr'n mich
Wie Motten um das Licht
Und wenn sie verbrennen
Ja dafür kann ich nichts
Ich bin von Kopf bis Fuß
Auf Liebe eingestellt
Ich kann halt lieben nur
Und sonst gar nichts

Two Girls
Two Girls
Composer(s): Townes Van Zandt
First release: Townes Van Zandt - 1977
Covered by multiple other artists
Well, the clouds didn't look like cotton
they didn't even look like clouds
I was underneath the weather
my friends looked a crowd
The swimmin' hole was full of rum
I tried to find out why
All I learned was this my friend
you got to swim before you fly
I got two girls
one's in heaven and one's below
Oh, one I love with all my heart
and one I do not know
Two lonesome dudes on an ugly horse
Passed by not long ago
They asked me where the action was
I said I did not know
As they disappeared into the brush
I heard the driver say
He's a little slow between the ears
He's always been that way
Jolly Jane just lays around
and listens with her mouth
she's had about a dozen husbands
but the last one pulled out
Now, who's gonna bring her dinner
through the weary years ahead
all she'll get from me is sympathy
got no time to see she's fed
It's cold down on the bayou
they say it's in your mind
but the moccasins are treadin' ice
and leavin strange designs
Cajuns say the last time
that this happend they weren't here
All Beaumont's full of penguins
and I'm a-playin' it by ear

Performer(s): Edith Piaf
L'Humanité! Le Figaro! France-soir!
Les travailleurs ont le droit de savoir?
Carreaux, lorets, phosphate, rio, dicto
La princesse portait un nouveau chapeau
Zizi place dix-sept, gagnant vingt-deux...
Venez chercher les mots
Puisqu'il vous faut des mots
Et puis soyez heureux...
On précisait hier dans les couloirs
Que l'Eminence grise serait pas noire
La France bat la Pologne par trois-zéro
Grâce à Lopez, Kobarsky et Aszlo
La Princesse va faire couper ses cheveux
Venez chercher des mots
Puisqu'il vous faut des mots
Et puis soyez heureux...
Eclaircie passagère et temps couvert
Trois pièces : cuisine, moquette, très bonne affaire
Et la poitrine sera plus haute au printemps
Mon linge a vraiment la blancheur du blanc
Ma foi, ce sera un événement heureux...
Venez chercher des mots
Puisqu'il vous faut des mots
Et puis soyez heureux...

Two For The Road
Two For The Road
Composer(s): Henry Mancini - Leslie Bricusse
Performer(s): Henry Mancini
If you're feeling fancy free
come wonder through the world with me
And any place we chance to be
will be our rendezvous
Two for the road we'll travel down the years
collecting precious memories
Selecting souvenirs
and living life the way we please
In summer time the sun will shine
in winter we'll drink summer wine
And every day that you are mine
will be a lovely day
As long as love still wears a smile
I know that we'll be two for the road
and that's a long, long while
As long as love still wears a smile
I know that we'll be two for the road
and that's a long, long while

Since I lost you
Two faces have I
One to laugh and one to cry
Two faces have I
One to laugh and one to cry
Will I ever laugh again
She'll never see me cry
Will I walk with a smile on my face
Knowing I live a lie
I pretend that I'm carefree
But what am I
I pretend that I'm carefree
But I'm living a lie
Two faces have I
One to laugh and one to cry
Two faces have I
One to laugh and one to cry

Waitress, Waitress, pretty little waitress
Get my order right
Give me turnip greens and a bowl full of beans
And a date with you tonight
Waitress, Waitress, pretty little waitress
You're sure looking pert
I want a slice of ham and a candy jam
With a kiss for my dessert
You're the prettiest thing I've ever seen
You're bubbling over with charm
You belong on a cover of a magazine
Or better yet my arm
Waitress, Waitress, pretty little waitress
Say when you'll be through
And no matter how late I'll be here waiting
Just outside for you
Waitress, waitress, apple of my eye
Here's a 20 cent tip for you
I could sit for days
And never quit gazing in your eyes of blue
Why you're slinging that coffee and pie
I'll never, never know
You could be the queen of a movie screen
Or a television show
You're a uniform angel, you're a dream
You're heavenly beautiful too
Honey, we'd go together like peaches and cream
Under a lover's moon
Waitress, Waitress, pretty little waitress
Say when you'll be through
And no matter how late I'll be here waiting
Just outside for you
You're the prettiest thing I've ever seen
You're bubbling over with charm
You belong on a cover of a magazine
Or better yet my arm
Waitress, Waitress, pretty little waitress
Say when you'll be through
And no matter how late I'll be here waiting
Just outside for you

Kiss An Angel Good Morning
Composer(s): Ben Peters
Performer(s): Charley Pride;
and various other artists
When ever I chance to meet
some old friends on the street
They wonder how does a man get to feel this way
I've always got a smiling face
anytime & any place
And every time they ask me why I just smile & say
You've got to kiss an angel good morning
And let her know you think about her when you're gone
Kiss an angel good morning
And love her like the devil when you get back home
Well people may try to guess, the secret of my happiness
But some of them never learn it's a simple thing
The secret that I'm speaking of, is a woman & a man in love
And the answer is in this song that I always sing

I got two eyes in the corner
Two eyes looking at me
Don't hide in the corner
Bring those two eyes closer closer
Two arms wanna hold you
Two lips wanna kiss kiss
Waiting for the moment I say "yes, please"
Two eyes!
Tantalizing, hypnotizing
Looking through me, speeking to me
Fascinating, captivating
Peepers keep me waiting
I got two eyes in the corner
Two eyes looking at me
Don't hide in the corner
Bring those two eyes closer closer
Two arms wanna hold you
Two lips wanna kiss kiss
Waiting for the moment I say "yes, please"
Two eyes!
Dig those linkers, dig those winkers
Such expression, this impression
That you're making's got me shaking
I'm yours for the taking
I got two eyes in the corner
Two eyes looking at me
Don't hide in the corner
Bring those two eyes closer closer
Two arms wanna hold you
Two lips wanna kiss
Waiting for the moment I say "yes, please"
Two eyes!

Ice Cream For Crow
Composer(s): Don Van Vliet
First release by: Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band - 1982
It's so hot
Looks like you have three beaks, crow
The moon's so full
White hat on a pumpkin
You know there's something
The moon was a stone's throw
Stop the show
I need to say hello to the crow
Light the fire piano
The moon showed up
And it started to show
Tonight there would be ice cream
Ice cream for crow
Ice cream by night
Sun cream by day
Ice cream for crow
Ice cream by night
Sun cream by day
The sun ain't stable
Ice cream for crow
Crow pants the scarecrow
Crow dance ah ho ho
Crow dance
A panther
Scarecrow you answer
You can hee and haw
Maugh and scratch
Ha ha ha
Ha ha ha
Boss and toss
Don't shake my hand
Give me your claw
Two tears in a haystack
Scarecrow get back
Tonight there will be
A feather treatment
Beneath the symbol
We'll all assemble
Oh how we'll fly
Oh how we'll tremble
Cut the cake
We'll all get well
Turn up the speakers
Hop flop squawk
It's a keeper
Ice cream for show
Oh ice cream for crow
Now now that's it
Now you can go
