Street Of Dreams (Bing Crosby)
Street Of Dreams
Composer(s): Sam Lewis - Victor Young
First recording/First release by: Bing Crosby - 1932/1933
Covered by multiple other artists
Love laughs at a king
Kings don't mean a thing
On the street of dreams
Dreams broken in two
Can be made like new
On the street of dreams
Gold, silver and gold
All you can hold
Is in the moonbeams
Poor, no one poor
Long as love is sure
On the street of dreams
Love laughs at a king
‘cos Kings don't mean a thing
On the street of dreams
Dreams that’s all broken in two
You can make ‘em just like new
On the street of dreams
Now you take gold, silver and gold
All that you can hold
Is way up yonder in the moonbeams
Poor? Ain’t nobody poor
Long as love is sure
On that old street of dreams
Love laughs at a king
Kings don't mean a thing
On the street of dreams
Dreams broken in two
Can be made like new
On the street of dreams
Gold, silver and gold
All you can hold
Is in the moonbeams
Poor, no one is poor
Long as love is sure
On the street of dreams

You (Nils Lofgren)
You
Composer(s): Nils Lofgren
Performer(s): Nils Lofgren
Ah, you, wake me with the genlest touch
When you, kiss me, oh, I feel I must I have you
You have everything I need
Except a burning love for me
When I first saw you that day
I had to ask you stay
We ate and drank to much
And our hearts softly touched
Now, in us I do believe
Or have I been deceived
Ah, you; you come down like early rain, and you
Wash away my every pain, and you
You have everything I need
Except a burning love for me
Well we had this for a while
And when we make love, you'd always smile
Still, there's a distance I can't close
I'm in deeper, and it shows
It shows
Well, while our hearts are young and there's still time
Tell me what to do to make you mine
Oh, mine, ah, you
You walk outside and birds start to sing, ah, you
You look at me and know everything I feel
I feel, grant me one wish, and I'll be free
I want you more in love with me
I want you more in love with me, ah, you

Street Of Dreams (Rainbow)
Street Of Dreams
Composer(s): Ritchie Blackmore - Joe Lynn Turner
First release by: Rainbow - 1983
I heard the sound of voices in the night
Spell bound there was someone calling
I looked around no on was sight
Pulled down I just kept on falling
I've seen this place before
You were standing by my side
I've seen your face before tonight
Maybe I just see what I want to be
I know it's a mystery
Do you remember me on a street of dreams
Running through my memory
On the street of dreams
There you stood a distant memory
So good like we never parted
Said to myself I knew you'd set me free
And here we are right back where we started
Something's come over me
And I don't know what to feel
Maybe this fantasy is real
Now it's still a mystery
Do you remember me on a street of dreams
Running through my memory
On the street of dreams
You are on every face I see
On the street of dreams
Tell me have you always been
On the street of dreams
Will we ever meet again my friend
Do you know just who you'll see do ya
On the street of dreams
You can be who you want to be oh yeh
I can hear you calling me
I can feel you haunting me
Haunting me

Street Of Dreams (Lindsay Buckingham)
Street Of Dreams
Composer(s): Lindsay Buckingham - Richard Dashut
Performer(s): Lindsay Buckingham
Can’t get going
Fear is showing
On this lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely
Street of dreams
There’s no telling
What they’re selling
On this lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely
Street of dreams
There’s a shadow on my daddy’s stone, where he was laid, laid to rest.
I ask him is this just a dream, or is it just another test?
I turn my back against the cold, I turn my face into the wind
And I wonder will I ever, ever make it home again?
Shadow on daddy’s stone, ten years gone, it seems
I ask him will i ever stop, ever stop dreaming dreams?!
He said never, never, never
And I was praying
You’d be staying
On this lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely
Street of dreams

You (Charles Aznavour)
You
French Title: Je Ne Connais Que Toi
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
You are all I've ever known
Through every dreamless night
Through every empty dawn
You and only you alone
Were my moment of truth
Were my promise of youth reborn
Far in the corners of my mind
In shadows hard to find
You were godlike, a voice
That lingered in the air
When every hope was gone
You called me ever on
Through my time of despair
You are words I'll never find
Too full to ever say
Too deep to understand
You make music in my mind
Can't imagine a day
Without wishing to find your hand
Some may wait a lifetime long
And never hear the song
That makes all heaven smile
And when they ask me
Who has made my life worthwhile
As if you didn't know
I owe it all to you

Street Life
Street Life
Composer(s): Will Jennings - Joe Sample
Performer(s): Randy Crawford & The Crusaders
I still hang around neither lost nor found
Hear the lonely sound of music in the night
Nights are always bright
That's all that's left for me, yeah
I play the street life
Because there's no place I can go
Street life, it's the only way I know
Street life
And there's a thousand cards to play
Until you play your life away
You dress and walk and talk
You're who you think you are
Street life, you can run away from time
Street life, for a nickel, for a dime
Street life, but you better not get old
Or you're gonna feel the cold
There's always love for sale
A grown up fairy tale
Prince charming always smiles
Behind a silver spoon
And if you keep t young
Your song is always sung
Your love will pay your way beneath the silver moon
Street life, street life, street life, oh street life...

You (Bonnie Raitt)
You
Composer(s): John Shanks; Bob Thiele; K. Tonio
Performer(s): Bonnie Raitt
Nobody else could make me happy
No one could hurt me like you do
You were the only one that mattered
Then you were gone......love had moved on
Left me alone thinking of...
You......there was never any other
You......and I were created to be true
Isn't it love that keeps us breathing
Isn't it love we're sent here for
Wasn't that love that we were feeling
(that was something baby)
Deep in our soul......deeper than we know
Keeping me holding out for
You......there was never any question
You'll be forever on my mind
You and I, we were meant to be together
True hearts in a world where love is dyin'
I might as well have been dyin', when we were apart
When you came back I felt the beating of my heart
You and I, there was never any question
You'll be forever on my mind
You and I, we were meant to be together
You.....
It was always you....yeah baby
Only you

Street Kids
Street Kids
Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin
Performer(s): Elton John
They must have had the whole thing planned
There must have been a hundred
If we make a stand
I think we'll be outnumbered
If I'd had the chance
Then I could understand
Why I'm a juvenile delinquent
In an East End gang
And if you think you've seen gasoline burning in my eyes
Don't be alarmed, tell yourself it's good to be, it's good to be alive
It's just another street kid on your tail
Running on the wrong side of the rails
With my boot lace tie and my hand-me-downs
You know I run the toughest bunch this side of town
Those street kids making news just being around
I've been bottled and been brained
Squealers can't be trusted
If we fight tonight
You can bet we'll all be busted
I'd like to break away
From the rut I'm in
But beggars can't be choosers
And I was born to sin
Let's hear it for the street kids
Making news just being around

Yosemite Sam
Yosemite Sam
Composer(s): Alan Livingston;
Warren Foster; Mike Maltese; Billy May
Performer(s): Mel Blanc
Oh, I'm the toughest hombre that ever lived out West
Although I'm only two feet tall, my shootin' is the best
I like to hunt for big black ducks a-way up in the sky
I like to see if I can hit a duck that's on the fly
I'll hunt down game, I'll blast away
I'll shoot where ere I can
I'll aim my gun, I never miss
Or my name's not Yosemite Sa-a-a-a-a-am
Sometimes I reach a rabbit without a single sound
And then I pull the trigger and the rabbit hits the ground
Squirrels too are very cute as they go up a tree
But with my trusty rifle, they can't excape from me
Oh, I'll hunt down game, I'll blast away
I'll shoot what ere I can
I'll aim my gun, I never miss
Or my name's not Yosemite Sa-a-a-a-a-am
I sometimes hunt for possum when there's nothin' else to shoot
Or aim at birds as they fly by, I don't much give a hoot
I'll even shoot the little deer who run so very fast
No matter how they run away, they can't escape my blast
Oh, I'll hunt down game, I'll blast away
I'll shoot what ere I can
I'll aim my gun, I never miss
Or my name's not Yosemite Sa-ay-ay-yam
But I must really tell you, I know you will be glad
That though I shoot a lot of things, I'm not so very bad
For from my little rifle, an animal never drops
For instead of usin' bullets, I load it with gumdrops
Oh, I'll hunt down game, I'll blast away
I'll shoot what ere I can
I'll aim my gun, I never miss
Or my name's not Yosemite Sa-a-a-a-a-am
YAA-HAAA!

After December Slips Away
After December Slips Away
Composer(s): Lowell Alexander - Bonnie Keen
Performer(s): First Call; Donnie Osmond
The season comes but once a year
A gift of precious wonder
For all who hold it dear
But past the sights and coloured lights
Lord, far beyond December
I will remember
After the carols fade away
After the Yule fire dies down
When there are no longer dreams to open and see
Because You are hope and joy and peace
Because You're the only gift I need
In my heart the season will remain
After December slips away
Years ago beneath a tree
Fell the drops of crimson
That set the faithful free
The gift was life sent in love
Lord, far beyond December
I will remember
After the carols fade away
After the Yule fire dies down
When there are no longer dreams to open and see
Because You are hope and joy and peace
Because You're the only gift I need
In my heart the season will remain
After December slips away
No matter how bright the glitter shines
No matter how many hopes come true
I know that all I have
Begins and ends with You
After the carols fade away
After the Yule fire dies down
When there are no longer dreams to open and see
Because You are hope and joy and peace
Because You're the only gift I need
In my heart the season will remain
After December slips away
In my heart the season will remain
After December slips away

Yonder Comes A Sucker
Yonder Comes A Sucker
Composer(s): Jim Reeves
Performer(s): Jim Reeves
(Chorus:)
Railroad, steamboat, river and canal
Yonder comes a sucker, and he’s got my gal
And she’s gone, gone, gone
And she’s gone, gone, gone
And I’ll bid her my last farewell
I fell in love with a pretty little thing
I thought that wedding bells would ring
She was as sweet as sweet could be
‘Till I found out what she did to me
(Repeat Chorus)
I asked her mother to let her go
She whispered, “Mother, please tell him no
Though he may think that I am true
There’s plenty more who think so too”
(Repeat Chorus)
Now, I won’t cry my life away
Some other sucker will have to pay
And when he finds that she is gone
I guess I’ll hear him sing this song
(Repeat Chorus)

Street Corner Serenade
Street Corner Serenade
Composer(s): Michael Duke - Jack Hall - Marshall Smith
Performer(s): Wet Willie
Down on the corner in my home town
Me and the fellows used to gather round
The song we sang it sounded so sweet
I can still hear that harmony
Singin de de de de deet
Who, whoa oh ah ah
Guide he's the one that sang down low
Crazy Larry sang the baritone
I'm the one that sang the lead
Little Jackie made our song complete
Singin de de de de deet
Who, whoa oh ah ah
When a pretty girl would come passing by
We tried too hard to catch her eye
And when she stopped to check us out
That's when we really sang out loud
Singin de de de de deet
Who, whoa oh ah ah
I still remember those happy days
We passed our time in carefree ways
Maybe someday we'll get together again
Down on the corner with my old friends
Singin de de de de deet
Who, whoa oh ah ah

Composer(s): Pete Bellotte - Stefan Wisnet - Gunther Moll
Performer(s): Elton John
Street guys, walking, dancing
Sidewalk, music, hot thing
They got their boxes tuned into their favorite show
As they truck on down the road
Is that the radio
Yes that's the radio
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Street boogie got a hold on me
Street boogie gonna set me free
Street boogie keep a hold on me
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright with me
Street boogie, it's the city beat
Street boogie, on the boogie street
Street boogie, yeah and that's for me
Street boogie, street boogie, street boogie, street boogie
Traffic, skater, rolling
Sharing, music, sure thing
He got his shoulder holster turned a way up loud
As he wheels his way around
Is that the radio
Yes that's the radio
Catch the sound, catch the sound, catch the sound
Boogie, street boogie
Boogie, street boogie

Yogi Bear
Yogi Bear
(Theme Song)
Composer(s): Joseph Barbera; Hoyt Curtin; William Hanna
Yogi Bear is smarter than the average bear
Yogi Bear is always in the Ranger's hair
At a picnic table you will find him there
Stuffing down more goodies than the average bear
He will sleep till noon but before it's dark
He'll have every picnic basket left in Jellystone Park
Yogi has it better then a millionaire
That's because he's smarter than the average bear

First release by: Stray Cats - 1981
Covered by multiple other artists
Oooooooh
Black and orange stray cat sittin' on a fence
Ain't got enough dough to pay the rent
I'm flat broke but I don't care
I strut right by with my tail in the air
Stray cat strut I'm a ladies cat
I'm a feline casanova hey man that's that
Get a shoe thrown at me from a mean old man
Get my dinner from a garbage can
Meow
Yeah, don't cross my path!
I don't bother chasing mice around
I slink down the alley lookin' for a fight
Howlin' to the moonlight on a hot summer night
Singin' the blues while the lady cats cry
"Wild stray cat, you're a real gone guy"
I wish I could be as carefree and wild
But I got cat class and I got cat style

Yoga Is As Yoga Does
Yoga Is As Yoga Does
Composer(s): Gerald Nelson; Fred Burch
Performer(s): Elvis Presley; Gerald Nelson
Well I can see that you and yoga will never do
Yoga is as yoga does there's no in-between
Your either with it on the ball or you've blown the scene
I can see lookin' at you, you just can't get settled
How can I even move, twistin' like a pretzel
(Yoga is, yoga does)
(There's no in-between)
(Your either with it all the way) Or you've blown the scene
(Or you've blown the scene)
Come on come on, untwist my legs
Pull my arms a lot
How did I get so tied up
In this yoga knot
You tell me just how I can take this yoga serious
When all it ever gives to me is a pain in my posteriors
(Yoga is, yoga does)
(There's no in-between)
(Your either with it all the way) Or you've blown the scene
(Or you've blown the scene)
Stand upside down on your head, feet against the wall
A simple yoga exercise done by one and all
Now cross your eyes and hold your breath, look just like a clown
Yoga's sure to catch you if you come falling down
(Yoga is, yoga does)
(There's no in-between)
(Your either with it all the way) Or you've blown the scene
(Or you've blown the scene)
(Yoga is, yoga does)
(There's no in-between)
(Your either with it all the way) Or you've blown the scene
(Or you've blown the scene)
