Nature Boy
Nature Boy
Composer(s): Eden Ahbez
Performer(s): Nat King Cole;
and various other artists
There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"
(instrumental break)
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"

In The Meantime
Composer(s): John Burch
Performer(s): Georgie Fame
Some day baby, gonna hit on you
And together we will live life through
But in the meantime I'm such a lean time
You have a hard time
Because I wanna live it up this way
That's why I gotta change my style you say
Give up my gals and wine
So you can see, I'm gonna need some loving in the meantime
I'm gonna need some catching in the meantime
I'm gonna be a meantime man
Oh pretty baby, I've always been like this hell
No one to chain me
But if you love me like I think you do
You're gonna understand I'm gonna change for you
Give up my gals and wine
So you can see, I'm gonna need some loving in the meantime
I'm gonna need some catching in the meantime
I'm gonna be a meantime man
So now I know
Yeah, you're gonna save my soul
Just change my style
But you better know me, why
I really love you
Although I never show it
Don't tell me we're through
I tell you sacrifice in love is grand
It won't be long before we're hand in hand
And I give up my gals and wine
So you can see, I'm gonna need some loving in the meantime
I'm gonna need some catching in the meantime
I'm gonna be a meantime man
I really love you
Although I never show it
Don't tell me we're through
I tell you sacrifice in love is grand
It won't be long before we're hand in hand
And I give up my gals and wine
So you can see, I'm gonna need some loving in the meantime
I'm gonna need some catching in the meantime
I'm gonna be a meantime man
I'll see you in the meantime
You have a hard time

Naturally Stoned
Naturally Stoned
Composer(s): Chuck Woolery
Performer(s): Avante Garde; Helmut Zacharias
It seems the days we spent together
All too quickly faded away
And even now my lonely mind
Is full of thoughts of yesterday
The say grow up
Put your mind on what you have to do
But I know I can never
Make it baby, without you
I can feel a good vibration
When I put my mind on you alone
I can get a good sensation
Feel like I'm naturally stoned
Naturally stoned
And now they say it's time for me
To face the troubled world alone
There's just one thing
They do not seem to understand
Why can't they get it through their heads
I need a helping hand
I can feel a good vibration
When I put my mind on you alone
I can get a good sensation
Feel like I'm naturally stoned
Naturally stoned

In The Light
Composer(s): Robert Plant; James Patrick Page; John Paul Jones
First release by: Led Zeppelin - 1975
And if you feel that you can't go on, and your will's sinkin' low
Just believe and you can't go wrong
In the light you will find the road, you will find the road
Oh, did you ever believe that I could leave you, standing out in the cold
I know how it feels 'cause I have slipped through to the very depths of my soul
I just wanna show what I'd give you it is from every bend in the road
Now listen to me
Oh, whoa-whoa, as I was and really would be for you, too, honey
As you would for me, oh, I would share your load
Let me share your load, ooh, let me share, share your load
And if you feel that you can't go on
In the light you will find the road
Though the winds of change may blow around you, but that will always be so
When love is pain it can devour you, if you are never alone
I would share your load. I would share your load
Baby, let me, oh, let me
In the light
Everybody needs the light
In the light, in the light, in the light
Light, light, light, in the light
Light, light, light, in the light, ooh, yeah
Light, light, light, in the light

Performer(s): UFO;
and various other artists
Said she came from Memphis
You can look but please don't touch
Didn't like rock and rollers
Seemed a bit much too much
Cause it's the natural thing, feelin' the star
The Natural blood starts to flow
Yeah, the natural thing, got up a star
Then she'll never let you go
Hey girl, now does it feel allright
Think I'm gettin' through
Don't you think the band's real tight
Wait till we start to move
May sound funny but you gave it to me
I didn't even like it
May sound funny but you gave it to me
And now I got to live without it
I been down to Atlanta
Got to move my feet
Gettin' down before the last call
With every star she meets

In The Land Of Beginning Again (Where Broken Dreams Come True)
In The Land Of Beginning Again (Where Broken Dreams Come True)
Composer(s): Grant Clarke; George W. Meyer
Performer(s): Charles Harrison
and multiple other artists
There's a land of beginning again
Where skies are always blue
Though we've made mistakes, that's true
Let's forget the past and start life anew
Though we wandered by a river of tears
Where sunshine won't come through
Let's find that paradise where sorrow can't live
And learn the teachings of forget and forgive
In the land of beginning again
Where broken dreams come true
There's a land of beginning again
Where skies are always blue
Though we've made mistakes, that's true
Let's forget the past and start life anew
Though we wander by a river of tears
Where sunshine won't come through
Let's find that paradise where sorrow can't live
And learn the teachings of forget and forgive
In the land of beginning again
Where broken dreams come true
There's a land of beginning again
Sometimes there're tears behind a sunny smile
Some hearts hold sorrow for a long, long while
If we could only forget
Think how much further we'd get
And though our hearts are filled with sadness
We'll see the sunshine yet
Don't ever feel that ev'ry hope is gone
It's always darkest just before the dawn
Just try a smile through the tears
Some day you'll laugh at your fears
And though your life is filled with shadows
They'll fade through future years
There's a land of beginning again

Natural Sinner
Natural Sinner
Composer(s): Andy Fairweather-Low
Performer(s): Elton John;
Amen Corner; Andy Fairweather-Low
Na na na na ...
Sometimes I feel too old to work, too young to die
but I'll drink wine and whisky, I'll keep smoking 'till I die
I wear a suit of sadness made by experience
for I believe that in the end time will heal what men can’t mend
Chorus
I'm a natural sinner, born a sinner's son
Evil's been my motto, distrust everyone
I'm a natural sinner, born a sinner's son
Evil's been my motto, distrust everyone
Big men with small mind now, they're not hard to find
Now they ain’t got no good side, it plain greed that covers up what’s inside
Now ride the confusion, withhold your trust
Struck with your own hand when you think the cause is just
Chorus
Na na na na ...

There's a place that you never can trace in Geography
come on with me, come on and see

In the land o' Yamo, Yamo, Funiculi, Funiculi, Funicula

in the land of Yamo, Yamo, Funiculi, Funiculi, Funicula

Natural Mystic
Composer(s): Bob Marley
Performer(s): Bob Marley;
and various other artists
There's a natural
mystic
Blowing through
the air
If you listen
carefully now you will hear
This could be the
first trumpet
Might as well be
the last
Many more will
have to suffer
Many more will
have to die
Don't ask me why
Things are not the
way they used to be
I won't tell no
lie
One and all got to
face reality now
Though I try to
find the answer
To all the
questions they ask
Though I know it's
impossible
To go living
through the past
Don't tell no lie
There's a natural
mystic
Blowing through
the air
Can't keep them
down
If you listen
carefully now you will hear
Such a natural
mystic
Blowing through
the air
This could be the
first trumpet
Might as well be
the last
Many more will
have to suffer
Many more will
have to die
Don't ask me why
There's a natural
mystic
Blowing through
the air
I won't tell no
lie
If you listen
carefully now, you will hear

In The Jailhouse Now
(Traditional)
First release by: Jimmie Rodgers - 1928
Covered by multiple other artists
I had a friend named Ramblin Bob
He used to steal gamble and rob
He thought he was the smartest guy around
Well I found out last Monday that Bob got locked up Sunday
They've got him in the jailhouse way downtown
He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
Well, I told him once or twice to stop playin' cards and shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
Bob liked to play his poker
Pinochle whist and euchre
But shootin dice was his favorite game
He got throw'd in jail with nobody to go his bail
The judge done said that he refused to the fine
He's in the jailhouse now
He's in the jailhouse now
Well, I told him once or twice to stop playin' cards and shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
Well I went out last Tuesday
I met a girl named Suzie
I said I was the swellest guy around
Well we got to spendin' my money
And she started to callin' me honey
We took in every cabaret in town
We're in the jailhouse now
We're in the jailhouse now
We're in the jailhouse now
Well I told that judge right to his face
I don't like to see this place
We're in the jailhouse now

Natural High
Composer(s): Charles McCormick
Performer(s): Bloodstone;
and various other artists
Why do I keep my mind on you all the time
And I don´t even know you
Why do I feel this way
Thinking about you every day
And I don´t even know you
Take me in your arms
Thrill me with all of your charms
And I´ll take to the sky on a natural high
Loving you more till the day I die
Take to the sky on a natural high
Loving you more
If you have anything to do
Call me and I will do it for you
And I don´t even know you
If I had only one wish to give
That wish would be for you to live forever and ever
When I see you on the street
My heart skips a beat
And I´ll take to the sky on a natural high
Loving you more till the day I die
Take to the sky on a natural high
Loving you more.
I´m gonna try to do
All the things you want me to
If you´ll just give me a chance
I´m trying to make something out of a nothing romance
And I don´t even know you
Take me in your arms
Thrill me with all of your charms
And I´ll take to the sky on a natural high
Loving you more till the day I die

In The Hills Of Old Kentucky
In The Hills Of Old Kentucky
Composer(s): Chas. L. Johnson; J.R. Shannon
There's a rose that grows in old Kentucky
She's the sweetest girl I know
With eyes of blue, and manner, too
That have made me love her so
Where the lonely mountain trail is winding
'Round my old Kentucky home
To a simple old log cabin
That is where I soon will roam
In my dreams I see the blue grass waving
And the meadow larks at play
They seem to call me back again to those hills far away
Where the winding trail is filled with sunshine
And the Rhododendron grows
Where the birds are ever singing
To my own dear Mountain Rose
In the hills of old Kentucky
Where the birds sing merrily
And the Southern breeze is playing thru the trees
That is where I belong to be
O'er the mountain trail I'm going
Where my sweet wild flower grows
In the hills of old Kentucky
To my Mountain Rose

Performer(s): Odyssey - 1977;
and various other artists
New York girl, ooh, ooh, ooh
Runnin' pretty, New York City girl
Twenty-five, thirty-five
Hello, baby, New York City girl
You grew up ridin' the subways, running with people
Up in Harlem, down on Broadway
You're no tramp, but you're no lady, talkin' that street talk
You're the heart and soul of New York City
And love, love is just a passing word
It's the thought you had in a taxi cab that got left on the curb
When he dropped you off and he stated firm
Oh, oh, oh (Oh, oh, oh)
You're a native New Yorker
You should know the score by now (You should know by now)
You're a native New Yorker
New York girl, ooh, ooh, ooh
Music plays, everyone's dancin' closer and closer
Makin' friends and findin' lovers
There you are lost in the shadows, searchin' for someone (Searchin' for someone)
To set you free from New York City
And, whoa, where did all those yesterdays go
When you still believed love could really be like a Broadway show
You are the star, win the applause
Oh, oh, oh (Oh, oh, oh)
You're a native New Yorker
No one opens the door
For a native New Yorker
(Runnin' pretty, New York City girl)
Ooh…ooh…ooh…
Native, native, native New Yorker
Where did all those yesterdays go
When you still believed love could really be like a Broadway show
You are the star
You're a native New Yorker
You should know the score by now
You're a native New Yorker
You should know the score, you should know the score by now
You're a native New Yorker, oh, oh, oh
(Native, native, native new Yorker)
You're a native New Yorker
Whoa, oh, ho, ho, you're a native New Yorker
You should know the score
(Native, native, native new Yorker)
You're a native New Yorker
What you waitin' for, no one opens the door
(You're a native New Yorker)
For a native, for a native New Yorker

In The Heat Of The Night
In The Heat Of The Night
Composer(s): Marilyn Bergman; Alan Bergman; Quincy Jones
Performer(s): Ray Charles
In the heat of the night
Seems like a cold sweat
Creeping cross my brow, oh yes
In the heat of the night
I'm a feelin' motherless somehow
Stars with evil eyes stare from the sky
(In the heat of the night)
Ain't a woman here before
Knows how to make the morning come
So hard to keep control
Well I could sell my soul for just a little light
In the heat of the night
I've got trouble wall to wall
Oh yes I have
I repeat in the night
Must be an ending to us all
Oh Lord, it won't be long
Yes, just you be strong
And it'll be all right
In the heat of the night

Bananarama; Nicolette Larson
You packed your bags as I recall
And you walked slowly down the hall
You said you had to get away to ease your mind
And all you needed was a just little of time
Oh winter's passed, spring and fall
You never wrote me, you never called
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Gone too long...
If a woman could die of tears
Nathan Jones, well, I wouldn't be here
The key that you're holding won't fit my door
And there's no room in my heart for you no more
'Cause, winter's passed, spring and fall
you never wrote me, you never called
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Gone too long
Nathan Jones, Nathan Jones...
Nathan Jones, ooh..
Winter's passed, spring and fall
You never wrote me, you never called
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Gone too long
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
...gone too long
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
...gone too long
Nathan jones you've been gonne too long

In The Heart Of The City That Has No Heart
In The Heart Of The City That Has No Heart
Composer(s): Thos. S. Allen; Joseph M. Daly
She wanted to roam so she left the old home
The old people's hearts were sore
she longed for the sights and the bright city lights
where hundreds had gone before
She went to the heart of the city and mingled with strangers there
but nobody said "You are being misled" for what did the stranger care
A year passes by, there's a tear in her eye, and sorrow is on her brow
Oh! what would she do if the old people knew, she couldn't go back home now
Her dear mother said when they parted "Remember your good old name"
then her daddy said "Rather we'd see you dead than bring us disgrace and shame"
In the heart of the city that has no heart that's where they meet
and that's where they part, the current of vice had proved too strong
so the poor little girlie just drifted along
nobody cared if she lived or died nobody cared if she laughed or cried
she's just lost a sister and nobody's missed her
she's there in the city where there's no pity in the city that has no heart

English Title: Natalia
Composer(s): Gilbert Bécaud
Performer(s): Gilbert Bécaud
Moskau war groß und so kalt, neben mir ging Nathalie
mir gefiel nicht allein ihr Name, Nathalie
Moskau war kalt aber schön, ich glaube, ich sah nur sie
auf dem Roten Platz blieb sie stehen, Nathalie
Sprach in gelerntem Ton von der Oktoberrevolution
ich versteh: Komm her! Sah nebenbei mir Lenin an
und dachte vielleicht geh ich dann mit ihr ins Café Puschkin
Moskau war nicht mehr so kalt, und sie saß mir vis à vis
Sie hatte so schöne blaue Augen, Nathalie, Nathalie
In ihrem Zimmer bei der Universität
waren Freunde da von ihr, und es wurde ziemlich spät
denn wir lachten , der Krimsekt war so gut
und schon tanzten sie, und mit mir Nathalie
Dai dai...
Auf einmal, da sind alle fort, die Zeit vergeht, ich weiß nicht wie
Ich hielt sie noch in meinen Armen, Nathalie
Nichts mehr von dem gelernten Ton, nichts mehr von der Revolution
nur wir zwei allein. Ich wollte fragen, wo ich bin
der Rote Platz, Café Puschkin, das, das alles klang so weit
Und nun bin ich fern von ihr, ihre Küsse vergesse ich nie
eines Tages kommt sie zu mir, Nathalie, Nathalie
Dai dai...

In The Heart Of Jane Doe
In The Heart Of Jane Doe
Composer(s): James Cavanaugh; Larry Stock
Performer(s): Nat King Cole
In the heart of Jane Doe
There's a longing I know
For that someone that she couldn't hold
She was young, young in years to be shedding such tears
But the young sometimes never grow old
She took love for granted and that wasn't smart
Love taken for granted is apt to depart
And now that he's gone
Who can tell what goes on in the heart
Broken heart of Jane Doe.
She took love for granted and that wasn't smart
Love taken for granted is apt to depart
And now that he's gone
Who can tell what goes on in the heart
Broken heart of Jane Doe
And I wonder does she know he still loves her so
