Ma Come Fanno I Marinai
Ma Come Fanno I Marinai
Performer(s): Lucio Dalla
Ma dove vanno i marinai
Con le loro giubbe bianche
Sempre in cerca di una rissa o di un bazar
Ma dove vanno i marinai
Con le loro facce stanche
Sempre in cerca di una bimba da baciar
Ma cosa fanno i marinai
Quando arrivano nel porto
Vanno a prendersi l'amore dentro al bar
Qualcuno è vivo per fortuna
Qualcuno è morto
C'è una vedova da andare a visitar
Ma come fanno i marinai
A riconoscersi sempre uguali sempre quelli
All'Equatore e al Polo Nord
Ma come fanno i marinai
A baciarsi tra di loro
A rimanere veri uomini però.
Intorno al mondo senza amore
Come un pacco postale
Senza nessuno che gli chiede come va
Col cuore appresso a una donna
Una donna senza cuore
Chissà se ci pensano ancora, chissà
Ma dove vanno i marinai
Mascalzoni imprudenti
Con la vita nei calzoni
Col destino in mezzo ai denti
Sotto la luna puttana e il cielo che sorride
Come fanno i marinai
Con questa noia che li uccide
Addormentati sopra un ponte
In fondo a malincuore
Sognano un ritorno smaltiscono un liquore
Affaticati dalla vita piena di zanzare
Che cosa gliene frega
Di trovarsi in mezzo al mare
A un mare che più passa il tempo
E più non sa di niente
Su questa rotta inconcludente
Da Genova a New York
Ma come fanno i marinai
A fare a meno della gente
E rimanere veri uomini però.
Intorno al mondo senza amore
Come un pacco postale
Senza nessuno che gli chiede come va
Col cuore appresso a una donna
Una donna senza cuore
Chissà se ci pensano ancora
Chissà

I'll Play For You
I'll Play For You
Composer(s): Dash Crofts; James Seals
Performer(s): Seals & Crofts; Bill Watrous
I'll play for you
I'll play for you
I'll play for you
Tonight while the lights are shinin'
And the microphone is on, I'll play for you
So many will be the blessings
And so short will be the time, I'll stay with you
But I'll play for you, I love you, yes, I do
You can say that I'm your friend
You can see my life begin and end
I'll always play for you
Hear the band, hear the band
Won't you let the music take you, hear the band
And let this night go on forever
And don't you ever stop the music
Let your spirit set you free
Now, hear the band, hear the band
You can sing and stomp you feet and clap your hands
And these few moments, we'll share together
And I'll play for you
I've practiced many years and I have come a long, long way
Just to play for you
My life is but a song that I have written in many ways
Just to say to you
To say, I love you, yes, I do
And I'd like for you to be whatever you would like to be
You'll always be special to me
Hear the band, hear the band
Won't you let the music take you, hear the band
And let this night go on forever
And don't you ever stop the music
Let your spirit set you free
Now, hear the band, hear the band
You can sing and stomp you feet and clap your hands
And these few moments, we'll share together
And I'll play for you

Ma Che Freddo Fa
Ma Che Freddo Fa
((French Version: Et Pourtant J'ai Froid (Dalida) - 1970))
Composer(s): Claudio Mattone - Franco Migliacci
First release: Nada Malanima - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists
D'inverno il sole stanco
A letto presto se ne va
Non ce la fa più
Non ce la fa più
La notte adesso scende
Con le sue mani fredde su di me
Ma che freddo fa
Ma che freddo fa
Basterebbe una carezza
Per un cuore di ragazza
Forse allora sì - che t'amerei
Mi sento una farfalla
Che sui fiori non vola più
Che non vola più
Che non vola più
Mi son bruciata al fuoco
Del tuo grande amore
Che s'è spento già
Ma che freddo fa
Ma che freddo fa
Tu ragazzo m'hai delusa
Hai rubato dal mio viso
Quel sorriso che non tornerà
Cos'è la vita
Senza l'amore
È solo un albero
Che foglie non ha più
E s'alza il vento
Un vento freddo
Come le foglie
Le speranze butta giù
Ma questa vita cos'è
Se manchi tu
Non mi ami più
Che freddo fa
Cos'è la vita
Se manchi tu
Non mi ami più
Che freddo fa

I'll Pin A Note On Your Pillow
I'll Pin A Note On Your Pillow
Composer(s): Carol Berzas; Don Goodman; Nelson Larkin
Performer(s): Billy Joe Royal
It's just not working, we've both known for sometime
That old fire's been out for so long, we've just stopped trying
The only time we're touching is when we're passing in the hall
And yesterday's "I love yous" don't really matter at all
I might as well be leaving, I'm already out of your mind
Baby, go right on dreaming, your dreams just might come true this time
Tomorrow when you wake up, you'll be lying here all alone
But I'll pin a note on your pillow or you might not even notice I'm gone
I wish that we could go back and love like we did before
We've been, alone together so long I can't take any more
My body's crying, wake up, let me hold you one more time
But you just go right on sleeping, my heart won't let me change my mind
I might as well be leaving, I'm already out of your mind
Baby, go right on dreaming, your dreams just might come true this time
Tomorrow when you wake up, you'll be lying here all alone
But I'll pin a note on your pillow or you might not even notice I'm gone
But I'll pin a note on your pillow or you might not even notice I'm gone

Ma Chambrette
Ma Chambrette
Performer(s):
Salvatore Adamo
Chers amis je vous présente ma chambrette
Sur les murs il y a des fleurs c'est pas beau
Y a ses plantes qui me surveillent d'un air bête
Table et chaise lit armoire et rideaux
J'passe mon temps à regarder par la fenêtre
J'fais des maths oui je compte les oiseaux
J'passe en r'vue toutes les formes du verbe être
Être fort être libre être sot
C'était charmant d'regarder par la fenêtre
Les p'tits bateaux qui s'ennuie sur Lesco
Mais j'ai beau faire j'ai beau forcer mon être
C'est pas marrant de se croire matelot
C'est pas marrant d'regarder dans la rue
Les passants qui s'balladent librement
C'est l'ennui c'est l'envie qui vous tue
Pour vous apprendre à tuer le temps
C'est p'être charmant d'regarder par la fenêtre
Les p'tits bateaux qui s'ennuie sur Lesco
Mais j'ai beau faire j'ai beau forcer mon être
C'est pas marrant de ce croire matelot
Un beau jour j'foutrais l'camps de ma chambrette
J'irais loin oui très loin Sacodeau
Tout là-bas a l'autre bout de la planète
Ou il n'y a pas d'mur pas fenêtre pas rideaux

I'll Pick A Rose For My Rose
I'll Pick A Rose For My Rose
Composer(s): James Dean; Marv Johnson; William Weatherspoon
Performer(s): Marv Johnson
Rose, Ro-ose, Ro-o-ose
This is the last time I'll walk into this gar-arden
All alone without the one I lo-ove
For today is the day I'm gonna bring Rose back to stay
Oh I've waited patiently
Now the time is right for me
So I'll reach dow-ow-own
Right to the grou-ou-ound
And pick a rose for my Ro-ose
'Cause somehow I know she know-ows
This love deep in my heart is still ali-ive
I'll pick a rose for my Rose
'Cause today I'm gonna go
And bring her back to stay right by my side
I'm comin' Ro-o-ose, I'm comin' Ro-ose
Years ago-o when I was just a poor boy
And her weathly parents didn't fancy me-ee
So they sent my Rose away to a far off lonely place
But when it was time to lea-eave
My Rose cried out to me-ee
Remember me-ee-ee
That's why you see-ee-ee
I will pick a rose for my Rose
'Cause somehow I know she know-ows
This love deep in my heart is still ali-ive
I'll pick a rose for my Rose
'Cause today I'm gonna go
And bring her back to be right by my side
I'm comin' Ro-o-ose, I'm comin' Ro-ose
Now that I-I walk slowly from this garden
A train ticket held tightly in my ha-and
And somewhere patiently
My Rose is waiting there for me
So then we'll be alone
And I'll bring my baby home and be arou-ou-ound
For her surpri-ise
I'll pick a rose for my Rose
'Cause somehow I know she knows
That this love deep in my heart is still ali-ive
I'll pick a rose for my Rose
'Cause today I'm gonna go
And bring her back to be right by my side
I'm comin' Ro-ose, I'm comin' Ro-ose
'Cause this love deep in my heart is still ali-ive-a

Ma Bonne Étoile
Composer(s): Pierre Delanoë;
Pace; Marissa Panzeri
Performer(s): Joe Dassin
J'allais au clair de lune
Au gré de ma fortune
Porte par tous les vents de l'univers
Comme un lampion de fête
Au dessus de ma tête
J'ai vu danser un point de lumière
Oh oh oh ma bonne étoile
Dans un'petite étincelle accrochée au ciel
J'ai vu un feu d'artifice
Grand comme un soleil
Et depuis ce temps-la. si j'ai l'air heureux
C'est que tu brilles nuit et jour
Dans le fond de mes yeux
Tu parles comme on chante
Tu marches comme on danse
Et tu me portes chance à chaque instant
Et me voilà roi mage
Au début d'un voyage
Qui ne finira qu'a la fin des temps
Oh oh oh ma bonne étoile
Je dors à la belle étoile au cœur de l'hiver
Et c'est toi qui me rechauffes
C'est toi qui m'eclaires
Et depuis ce temps-la si j'ai l'air heureux
C'est que tu brilles nuit et jour
Dans le fond de mes yeux

I'll Only Miss Her When I Think of Her
I'll Only Miss Her When I Think of Her
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn; James Van Heusen
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
I'll only miss her, when I think of her
And I'll think of her, all the time
Likely I'll spend my days - hearing her turn of phrase
Things I found hard to praise - right now, would seem sublime
The truth is...
I'll Only miss her, when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh - my hearts hears
Maybe in time - I guess, the longing will grow, the slightest bit less
And there will be moments - yes - when it disappears
I'll bet I'll forget her completely - in about a hundred years

There's a little bunch of sweetness
That I long to call my bride
And believe me I'm not happy

Her baptismal name was Rosie
But she put's the rose to shame
And almost every night
You'll here me call her name
Rosie, you are my posie
You are my hearts bouquet
Come out here in the moonlight
There's something sweet, love
I wanna say
Your honey boy I'm waiting
Those ruby lips to greet
Don't be so captivating
Ma blushin' Rosie
Ma Posie sweet
Rosie, you are my posie
You are my hearts bouquet
Come out, here in the moonlight
There's something sweet, love
I wanna say
Your honey boy I'm waiting
Those ruby lips to greet
Don't be so captivating
Ma blushin' Rosie
Ma posie sweet
*****

Rosie, you are my posie
You are my hearts bouquet
Come out, here in the moonlight

Your honey, your boy I'm waiting
Those rubies, those lips to greet
Don't be so captivating
My blushin' rosie
My posie sweet

That appear in my eyes

Ma belle amie
You were a child of the sun
And the sky and the deep blue sea

I want to tell you that I adore you
And always do
That you amaze me by leaving me now
And start a-new
Ma belle amie I'm in love with you
(chorus)
Let the bells ring
Let the birds sing
Let's all give my substitute a big cheer
Let the bells ring
Let the birds sing
For the man after him waits here
For the man after him waits here
Ma belle amie
You were a child of the sun
And the sky and the deep blue sea
Ma belle amie
There was a time that you thought
That your only friend was me
You were the answer of all my questions
Before we're through
I want to tell you that I adore you
And always do
That you amaze me by leaving me now
And start a-new
Ma belle amie I'm in love with you

But what is to be will be and I'll obey
I'll be blue when you go but I'll never let it show
I'd never stand in your way

Ma Baker's Little Acre
Ma Baker's Little Acre
Composer(s): John D. Loudermilk
Performer(s): John D. Loudermilk
Now a little old lady by the name of Ma Baker
Lived out of town on one square acre
In a little white house with a picket fence all around
She had a kind and a gentle way till the day the TVA
Tried to make Ma Baker sell her little acre of land
They showed her a map of how the river ran
And a sketch of a brand new dam
But Ma Baker wouldn't sell her little acre of land
She said Pa left this to me sonny and I wouldn't sell for love nor money
No sir Ma Baker's gonna keep her little acre of land
The next time they came they brought the sheriff
Found Ma a rockin' in an old porch chair
Just a knittin' and a rockin' out in the evening sun
She said I think you best to wait and don't just step through the picket gate
And on Ma's lap they noticed Pa's old shotgun
[Harmonica Solo]
Yeah now out in the middle of the brand new lake is a little island of one square acre
And Ma Baker's just as happy as she can be
And she can't swim but she can float and catch big bass from her motor boat
And when the wind ain't blowin' too much she can water ski
Yeah and Ma Baker still owns her little acre of land

To somebody new
Within my heart
I know I will never start
To smile again
Until I smile at you

Performer(s): Boney M.;
and various other artists
Freeze! I'm Ma Baker
Put your hands in the air, gimme all your money
This is the story of Ma Baker
The meanest cat from ol' Chicago town
She was the meanest cat
In old Chicago town
She was the meanest cat
She really moved them down
She had no heart at all
No no no heart at all
She was the meanest cat
Oh she was really tough
She left her husband flat
He wasn't tough enough
She took her boys along
'Cos they were mean and strong
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - but she knew how to die
They left a trail of crime
Across the U.S.A.
And when one boy was killed
She really made them pay
She had no heart at all
No no no heart at all
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - but she knew how to die
She met a man she liked
She thought she'd stay with him
One day he formed with them
They did away with him
She didn't care at all
Just didn't care at all
Here is a special bulletin
Ma Baker is the FBI's most wanted woman
Her photo is hanging on every post office wall
If you have any information about this woman
Please contact the nearest police station ...
Don't anybody move! The money or your lives!
One day they robbed a bank
It was their last foray
The cops appeared too soon
They couldn't get away
And all the loot they had
It made them mighty mad
And so they shot it out
Ma Baker and her sons
They didn't want to hang
They died with blazing guns
And so the story ends
Of one who left no friends
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - but she knew how to die
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma - Ma Baker - but she knew how to die

Performer(s): Dinah Shore
and multiple other artists
I’ll never say “Never again” again
‘Cos here I am in love again
Head over heels in love again, with you

I walked away and said goodbye
I was hasty, wasn’t I
I missed you so I thought I’d die
But it’s all over now, so my head’s in the sky
I’ll never say “Never again” again
‘Cos here I am in love again
Head over hells in love again
With the same sweet you

I shall holler for assistance

I’ll Never Quite Get Over You
Composer(s): Arnold; Christian Charles; Martin; David; Morrow; Geoffrey Stanton
Performer(s): Billy Fury; Hep Stars
They say that I’ll forget you soon
That time can always heal the wound
I’d like to think they’re right
But the way I feel tonight
I’ll never quite get over you
And it’s at moments such as this
I think of how we used to kiss
And even in the end
If my broken heart should mend
I’ll never quite get over you
No other girl I meet
Can make my life complete
The way that you once used to do
For love may come and go
But in my heart I know
I’ll never quite get over you
You were so much a part of me
That from now on I can’t be free
And as the days go by
No matter how I try
I’ll never quite get over you
I’ll never quite get over you
