Indian Love Call


Indian Love Call
Composer(s): Rudolf Friml; Oscar Hammerstein II; Otto Harbach; Herbert Stothart
Performer(s): Paul Whiteman & His Orch. - 1924
and multiple other artists



Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo
When I'm calling you
Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo
Will you answer too?
Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo

That means I offer my life to you to be my own
If you refuse me I will be blue, waiting all alone

But if when you hear my love call ringing clear
Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo
And I hear your answering echo so dear
Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo
Then I will know our love will become true
You'll belong to me and I'll belong to you

Then I will know our love will become true
You'll belong to me and I'll belong to you

Nervous Breakdown


Nervous Breakdown
Composer(s): Mario Roccuzzo
Performer(s): Eddie Cochran;
and various other artists



Chorus:
I'm a-havin' a nervous breakdown
A mental shakedown
See my hands, how they shiver
See my knees, how they quiver
My whole body's in a jitter
I'm a-havin' a nervous breakdown

Well, I went to see my doctor just the other day
And I've got to tell you what the man had to say
Well, he said, "Hey, boy, you just gotta slow down
You can't keep a-traipsin' all over town
After givin' you a physical check
I've come to the conclusion you're a total wreck"

(chorus)

I've made up my mind I'd better change my ways
My shattered nerves have seen better days
No more girls for a week or 2
No more runnin' 'round with the usual crew
No more movies or stayin' out late
My baby have to find herself another date

(chorus)

Indian Lake


Indian Lake
Composer(s): Tony Romeo
Performer(s): The Cowsills
and multiple other artists



You take a bus marked "Lakewood Drive"
And you keep on drivin' till you're out of the city
Where the air is fine with the sweet smellin pine
And the countryside's pretty
And you'll see daffodils peepin over
The hills or a honey lovin' mama bear

You take a left at the bridge
Go down to Quakerforn Ridge
And in a minute you're there
(dupe do be do do do )

Indian Lake is a scene
You should make with your little one
Keep it in mind if you're lookin to find
A place in the summer sun
Swim in the cove have a snack in the grove
Or you can rent a canoe at Indian Lake
You'll be able to make the way the Indians do

Neptune's Daughter


Neptune's Daughter
Performer(s): Grant Clarke & Jean Schwartz



Down by the seaside
Where waves were rolling
A boy went strolling
Moonlight night
He was watching the fish play
That very evening, beside the water
Sat Neptune's daughter
When he spied her pretty face he cried

Lovely little Neptune's daughter
Living underneath the water
I love you, Yes I do
You seem to me, to be lonely
When the moon begins to glimmer
If I were a deep sea swimmer
Then I'd go down below
My little queen of the sea

Once he went fishing
Where waves were rolling
He started strolling, hours went by
Then the shadows began to fall
His heart was lonely
He sat there thinking
The sun was sinking
From the blue there came a voice he knew

Lovely little Neptune's daughter
Living underneath the water
I love you, yes I do
You seem to me to be lonely
When the moon begins to glimmer
If I were a deep sea swimmer
Then I'd go down below
My little queen of the sea

I can still remember it wasn't long ago
Things you used to tell me
You said I had to know
Told me that you love me
And that you always would
Then I said I loved you
You said that that was good
Girl you made a promise
Said you'd never want me to go
Oh no, oh

You took your love away from me

Baby, I was feeling the way I want to feel

Things we did together
You said they'd never end
Now and till forever
Oh yeah, that's what you said
Girl when I was down I knew that you would always be there
Oh, yeh

Neon Rainbow


Neon Rainbow
Composer(s): Wayne Thompson
Performer(s): The Box Tops;
Petula Clark; Queen Anne's Lace



The city lights, the pretty lights
They can warm the coldest nights
All the people going places
Smiling with electric faces
What they find the glow erases
What they've lose the glow replaces, and life is love

In a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow

Moving lights, flashing sights
Blinking faster than your mind
Leading people with suggestions
Leaving no unanswered questions
You can live without direction
And if don't have to be perfection, and life is love

In a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow

But in the daytime everything changes
Nothing remains the same, no one smiles anymore
Ad no one willopen his door
Until the night time comes, and then the ...

City lights, the pretty lights
They can warm the coldest nights
All the people going places
Smiling with the electric faces
What they find the glow erases
And what they lose the glow replaces, and life is love
In a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow

India, India


India, India
Performer(s): John Lennon



Take me to your heart
Reveal your ancient mysteries to me
I’m searching for an answer
That’s somewhere deep inside
I know I’ll never find it here
It’s already in my mind
I’ve got to follow my heart
Wherever it takes me
I’ve got to follow my heart
Whenever it calls to me
I’ve got to follow my heart
And my heart is going home
Om

India, India
Listen to my plea
I sit here at your feet so patiently
I’m waiting by the river
But somewhere in my mind
I left my heart in England
With the girl I left behind
I’ve got to follow my heart
Wherever it takes me
I’ve got to follow my heart
Whenever it calls to me
I’ve got to follow my heart
And my heart is going home
India ah

Neon Magic


Neon Magic
Composer(s): Andrew Latimer; Jan Schelhaas; Viv McAuliffe
Performer(s): Camel



Neon magic, a playground for the noise
Got the boys feeling tough, acting rough
Looking for trouble?
You better mind your tongue
Having fun much too much
Chasing cars, hit and run

They try their hardest
To stand out in the crowd, talking loud
Neon girls carrousels
Show off their colours
For some local fame
That's the name (of their) game
Acting cool, out of school
You're the same

Toi qui ne veux rien dire
Toi qui me parles d'elle

De cet amour mort

Toi qui ne veux rien dire
Toi qui me parles d'elle
Et toi qui me dit tout
Et toi qui me dit tout

Neon Cowboy


Neon Cowboy
Composer(s): David Bellamy; T.T. Kermit; Ralph Siegel
Performer(s): The Bellamy Brothers



Driving along on that endless road

just headin' for the silver sky
Rolling along to a brand new song
dreamin' up another lie

Through mountains in to canyons where rivers run below
Still movin' down that highway
lookin' for a place to go

'Cause I'm a Neon Cowboy and I'm a ridin' that freedom road
A neon cowboy and your tears are my only load
Always lookin' for that rainbow wherever I may roam

a Neon Cowboy's always comin' home

I watch T.V. in my motel room
till I lose the light of day
Then I slip into a six pack dream and drink the night away

The city lights are flashin' and I'm starin' at the phone

but it's much late for callin'
feelin' like I'm far too gone

'Cause I'm a Neon Cowboy and I'm a ridin' that freedom road
A neon cowboy and your tears are my only load
Always lookin' for that rainbow where ever I may roam

a Neon Cowboy's always comin' home

I'm a Neon Cowboy and I'm a ridin' that freedom road
A neon cowboy and your tears are my only load
Far beyond the blue horizon where ever I may roam

your Neon Cowboy's always on the run

I'm a Neon Cowboy and I'm out on this road alone
A neon cowboy in my heart I can feel your song
I'm still look in for that rainbow where ever I may roam

your Neon Cowboy's always on the run

Indestructible


Indestructible
Composer(s): Michael Price; Bobby Sandstrom
Performer(s): The Four Tops



We are friends, we are brothers
Always there lookin' out for each other
In a world where so many dreams are broken apart
But when the world tries to beat us
We hang tough, ain't no way they'll defeat us
You and I will always survive, together we're strong

Heart to heart
Any storm we can weather
You and I we've become
United forever

Two hearts that can beat as one
There ain't a single thing, we can't overcome
We're indestructible (indestructible)
We've got the power of love
So strong we can generate
A wall of solid love
Nothing can penetrate
We're indestructible

There's a power, deep inside us
Ain't no one that could ever divide us
We won't fall, we'll show 'em all
Just what we're made of

You and I
We're in it together
We stand strong through it all
United forever

Two hearts that can beat as one
There ain't a single thing, we can't overcome
We're indestructible (indestructible)
We've got the power of love
So strong we can generate
A wall of solid love
Nothing can penetrate
We're indestructible

Heart to heart
Any storm we can weather
You and I we've become
Untied forever

Two hearts that can beat as one
There ain't a single thing, we can't overcome
We're indestructible (indestructible)
We've got the power of love
So strong we can generate
A wall of solid love
Nothing can penetrate
We're indestructible

Nena Neurótica


Nena Neurótica
Composer(s): Alejandro Lerner
Performer(s): Alejandro Lerner; Ruben Gomez



Nena neurótica de familia bien
de madre psicótica y de padre también
colegio privado muy cerca de Dios
cerebro envasado en formol

Leíste los libros que hay que leer
todos de memoria y sin entender
dos o tres temas de conversación
ay que paquete es tu expresión

Nena neurótica
la papa en la boca y mucho sol
Nena Neurótica
no tengo nada que ver
no tengo nada que ver
no tengo nada que ver con vos

(Repite Introducción)

Un auto importado para ir a pasear
dejar admirados a los del lugar
las villas miserias son tu gran afición
ay que pintorescas que son

Campeona de hockey y de voley también
un novio en el foro de apellido francés
mirás con desprecio a los del almacén
Creo que es no est bien

Estribillo

Indescribably Blue


Indescribably Blue
Composer(s): Darrell Glenn
First recording/First release by: Elvis Presley - 1966/1967



Our friends all ask me
The last time I saw you
And I smile and tell them
It's been a day or two
There's no way to explain it
The way that I miss you
And my love, you have left me
Indescribably blue
I talk to your picture
My fav'rite one of you
I wish that you were here with me
But what good will it do
Having no way to tell you
The pain that I've been through
Oh, my love, you have left me
Indescribably blue
Yes, my love, you have left me
Indescribably blue

Eux


Eux
((Spanish Version: Dos (Dalida)) Composer(s): Danyel Gérard - Pierre Barouh Performer(s): Dalida



Il y a tant de joie
Dans leur moindre sourire
Qu'a les regarder vivre
Moi j'en ai peur pour
Eux
Dans leurs inconsciences
C'est leurs insolences qui parle pour eux
Eux
Dans leurs innocences
Ils ont l'indécences
Des gens trop heureux
Eux
Les regarder vivre
C'est ouvrir un livre
Ou tout serait bleu
Eux
C'est une légende
Qui ferait offrande
De sa vie pour eux

En les regardants dans un amour si grand
J'en ai le cœur qui pleure un triste adieu
Ma pensée s'égare par un simple regard
Car cet amour je l'ai connu comme
Eux
Dans leurs inconsciences
M'impose en silence un rêve évanoui
Eux
Dans leurs innocences
Raniment la danse d'un bonheur enfoui
Eux
Les regarder vivre
C'est pour moi revivre des jours délirants
Eux
Refonds la légende
Qui m'a fait l'offrande d'un bonheur trop grand

En les regardants dans un amour si grand
J'en ai le cœur qui pleure un triste adieu
Ma pensée s'égare par un simple regard
Car cet amour je l'ai connu comme
Eux

Nena (Miguel Bosé)


Nena
Composer(s): E. Aldrighetti; Miguel Bosé; V. Leoravante
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé



Ese modo de andar
ese look cha cha cha
casi casi vulgar
y esas cejas...
me senti castigar
te dije si si
por tu forma de amar
tan salvaje...

Hay un angel en tu mirada... (inquietante tabu)

Nena luna serena
todo es posible, menos tu
nena, ambar y arena
boca insaciable, solo tu
(promesas y mentiras)
solo tu... (estrella de mi corazon)
solo tu... (sofisticada diva)
solo tu... (ola, una ola, una ola)

No he podido escapar
de ese aqui ese alla
me deje dominar
poco a poco
quiereme con pasion
y dime si, si...
una vez y otra mas
que locura

Hay un angel en tu mirada
ese que sabes solo tu, solo tu

Nena, luna serena
todo es posible, menos tu
nena, ambar y arena
boca insaciable, solo tu
(promesa y mentiras)
solo tu... (estrella de mi corazon)
solo tu... (sofisticada diva)
solo tu... (ola, una ola, una ola)

Quiereme con pasion
y dime si, si
una vez y otra mas
que locura

Hay un angel en tu mirada
ese que sabes solo tu, solo tu

Nena deja ya de llorar
deja ya...

Independent (On My Own)


Independent (On My Own)
Composer(s): Jule Styne; Betty Comden; Adolph Green
Performer(s): Judy Holliday & Sydney Chaplin



I'm enjoying the delights of the solitary life
To the ties that bind I've bid goodbye
I'm the spirit of "Seventy-six" complete with drum and fife
Since my personal Fourth of July

Independent, self sufficient, got nobody to rely on
Independent, self reliant, got shoulder I can cry on
Now I'm livin', I'm on my own
Going it alone
I don't need anyone
And no one needs me
No need for anyone to help me mix martinis
Roast the wienies, bake the blinis, now that I'm free
Self sufficient, self supporting, trav'lin' light and flying solo
Ev'ry day is Independence Day
Hooray! Free and easy, blithe and breezy, going it alone
I'm independent and on my own

Independent, self sufficient, got nobody to rely on
Independent, self reliant, got shoulder I can cry on
Now I'm livin', I'm on my own
Going it alone
I don't need anyone
And no one needs me
No need for anyone to help me mix martinis
Roast the wienies, bake the blinis, now that I'm free
Self sufficient, self supporting, trav'lin' light and flying solo
Ev'ry day is Independence Day
Hooray! Free and easy, blithe and breezy, going it alone

Independence


Independence
Composer(s): Winston Sela; Leon Ware
Performer(s): Lulu



Don't be surprised by the way that I am
By the way that I feel and I act
There's too many rules, I really can't choose
I can't let those chains hold me back

I've never known what it's like on my own
But I'm takin' a chance anyway
It may not be right like some moves in the night
But I've got to do it my way

I want my independence
I want my freedom right now
I want my independence (independence)
I want my freedom right now

So what you're sayin' don't matter to me
I'm makin' my plans all alone
But I've got the right to express my emotions
Have some space of my own

Don't be confused, please don't misunderstand
I can't respect your wishes more
This time I must say I want it my way
I'm walkin' out the door

I want my independence (independence) ooh
I want my freedom (freedom) right now
I want my independence (independence)
I want my freedom, my freedom now

This time I walk away (this time)
This time I'm on my own
This time I walk away (this time)
This time I'm on my own

Don't be confused, please don't misunderstand
I can't respect your wishes more
And this time I must say I want it my way
I'm walkin' through the door

I want my independence (independence)
I want my freedom (freedom) right now yeah
I want my independence (independence)
I want my freedom (freedom), my freedom now

This time I walk away yeah (freedom)
This time I'm on my own (independence)
This time I walk away (freedom)
This time I'm on my own (independence)

Baby, I want my freedom yeah yeah
I want my independence
I want my freedom, my freedom, my freedom, my freedom
Oh (independence) oh oh independence (freedom)
I want my freedom baby yeah yeah (independence)
I want my independence (freedom)
And I'm gonna get it, I'm gonna get it

Nellie Kane


Nellie Kane
Composer(s): Tim O'Brien
Performer(s): Hot Rize;
Full Moon Express; Tim O'Brien; Phish



As a young man I went riding out on the western plain
In the state of North Dakota I met my Nellie Kane
I met my Nellie Kane

She was living in a lonely cabin with a son by another man
Five years she had waited for him as long as a woman can
As long as a woman can

I don't know what changed my mind
'Til then I was the ramblin' kind
The kind of love I can't explain
That I had for Nellie Kane

She hired me on to work that day to help her till the land
In the afternoon we planted seeds in the evening we held hands In
the evening we held hands

Her blue eyes told me everything a man could want to know
It was then I realized that I would never go
That I would never go

Now many years have gone by and her son has grown up tall
I became a father to him and she became my all
She became my all

Indelibly Blue


Indelibly Blue
Composer(s): Jim Peterik
Performer(s): Reba McEntire



Lost in the city
Deserted and cold
Watching the cars passing by
There all going places
That we used to go
And it's driving me out of my mind

And it's making me blue
Indelibly blue
I can't erase the memories of me and you
Indelibly blue

They say when one love is ended
Another is born
That's no consolation to me
Just show me some sunlight
A rose without thorns
And maybe I'll start to believe

And it's making me blue
Indelibly blue
I can't erase the memories of me and you
Indelibly blue
Well just color me blue

Oh all my life
I've waited for one love to make it alright
But now I feel heartaches and tears
Of a sad souvenirs that you left me
Since you left me
I'll just go on a day at a time
Trying in vain to forget you
But time and again you enter my mind
Someday I swear I won't let you

And it's making me blue
Indelibly blue
I can't erase the memories of me and you
Indelibly blue
'Cause baby I'm blue

And it's making me blue
Indelibly blue
I can't erase the memories of me and you
Indelibly blue
So just color me blue
