She's Got A Way
She's Got A Way
Composer(s): Billy Joel
First release by: Billy Joel - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists
She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is
But I know that I can't live without her
She's got a way of pleasin'
I don't know what it is
But there doesn't have to be a reason
Anyway
She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is
But I have to laugh when she reveals me
She's got a way of talkin'
I don't know what it is
But it lifts me up when we are walkin'
Anywhere
She comes to me when I'm feelin' down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around
She's got a way of showin'
How I make her feel
And I find the strength to keep on goin'
She's got a light around her
And everywhere she goes
A million dreams of love surround her
Everywhere
She comes to me when I'm feelin' down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around
She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is
But I have to laugh when she reveals me
She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is
But I know that I can't live without her
Anyway

She's Gonna Let You Down
She's Gonna Let You Down
Composer(s): Gerry Beckley
Performer(s): America
We're afraid she's gonna let you down
Take your money and drop you to the ground
Wouldn't want to see you messed around
After all the love you think you've found
She's gonna let you down
Doesn't matter what we say
Love's the stubbornest game to play
Given time you might see it our way
And we'll be sorry boy until that day
She's gonna break away
Remember all the times you helped us through
Now here's our chance to do the same for you
Guess the thing to do is wait around
Lend a hand when you are on the ground
She's gonna let you down
She's gonna let you down
She's gonna let you down

She's Gone, Gone, Gone
She's Gone, Gone Gone
Composer(s): Harlan Howard
First release by: Lefty Frizzell - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
She said if I ever deceived her
She'd be gone before I could count ten
I guess that I didn't believe her
'Cause look at the trouble I'm in
She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Cryin' won't bring her back
The more that I cry, the faster that train flies
Farther on down the track
I lost every right to be happy
When I lost the heaven I found
She warned me she'd leave and she left me
Before my first tear hit the ground
She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Cryin' won't bring her back
The more that I cry, the faster that train flies
Farther on down the track
If I only knew where to find her
I'd crawl there on my hands and knees
Each tick of the clock's a reminder
She's one second farther from me
She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Cryin' won't bring her back
The more that I cry, the faster that train flies
Farther on down the track

She's Gone
She's Gone
Performer(s): Ferre Grignard
My baby's gone and died on me
She's gone but I'm not free
Now I know just how much I loved her
Now I just sit there and cry
Oh, yes she's gone
Oh, yes she's gone
To that land of no return
Got to roam, just got to travel
Any place, any old how
Faraway to distant places
Try to forget, forget it somehow
Oh yes, she's gone
Oh yes, she's gone
But my baby I don't know where I'm going
Got to go back, go back sometime
That's where I'll stay, that's where I'll die
Got to go back, go back sometime
That's where you lay, that's where I'll die
That's where I'll go
That's where I'll go
Oh, my precious love, that's where I'll go

She's Funny That Way
She's Funny That Way
Composer(s): Kurt Elling; Neil Moret; Richard Whiting
First recording/First release by: Gene Austin - 1928/1929
Covered by multiple other artists
I'm not much to look at, I'm nothing to see
I'm just glad I'm living, lucky to be
I've got a woman who's crazy 'bout me
She's funny that way
I can't save a dollar, I ain't worth a cent
She doesn't holler, she'd live in a tent
I've got a woman, crazy 'bout me
She's funny that way
Though she loves to work and slave for me every day
She'd be so much better off if I went away
But why should I leave her?
Why should I go?
She'd be unhappy without me I know
I've got a woman who's crazy 'bout me
She's funny that way

She's From Missouri
She's From Missouri
From the Paramount Picture "Dixie"
Composer(s): Jimmy Van Heusen; Johnny Burke
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
That girl you saw me with last night
Ain't she grand!
In case you meet her, which you might
Well, you've simply got to understand
She's from Missouri
You'd know it right away
She's from Missouri
Be careful what you say
Don't try to fool her
What a fool you'd be
When she has those eyes that say
"You've got to show me"
We'll soon be sweethearts
Her glances tell me so
Yet when I ask her
She sighs and answers "No"
I don't believe her
I'll tell you why
She's from Missouri
But so am I!

She's Everybody's Baby But Mine
She's Everybody's Baby But Mine
Composer(s): Steven Fromholz
Performer(s): Steven Fromholz
She's everybody's baby but mine
Only wish she'd take her loves on one at a time
If you ask me why I am cryin'
She's everybody's baby but mine
I recall the day she left
Saw her off all by myself
By myself I watched her fly away
Now she runs with the retinues
Of gay young men and ingenues
I read about her in the Dallas Morning News today
She's everybody's baby but mine
Only wish she'd take her loves on one at a time
If you ask me why I am cryin'
She's everybody's baby but mine
She can sing like a mockingbird
Sweetest songs you ever heard
Waitin' on her every word were we
Now she sings on the concert stage
From coast to coast, she's the latest rage
Never seemed to find the time for me
She's everybody's eaby but mine
Only wish she'd take her loves on one at a time
If you ask me why I am cryin'
She's everybody's baby but mine
Now and then she'll come back home
Usually when she's feelin' lonely
Calls me on the phone to hold her hand
We go walkin' on a summer's evening
Try to talk, she ends up leaving
For Hollywood - back to her promised land
She's everybody's baby but mine
Only wish she'd take her loves on one at a time
If you ask me why I am cryin'
She's everybody's baby
She's everybody's baby
She's everybody's baby but mine
Everybody's baby but mine

She's Dixie All The Time
She's Dixie All The Time
Composer(s): Alfred Bryan; Harry Tierney
Wedding bells are ringing gay "Way down Alabama way
For a new married couple leaving Dixie, they say
Then a grey hair'd mammy smil'd
As she said "God bless you child"
That girl's grieving 'cause she's leaving
She can't stay away
What's the matter tell me, Joe
Don't you like the ice and snow"
Said the clerk at the Astor as they pack'd up to go
Then the gay young bridegroom sigh'd
As he pointed to the bride
"She's the reason, not the season
She can't be denied
She was born in old Kentucky
She was raised in Tennessee
Went to school in Alabama
Where she learn'd her ABC
Then she mov'd down to Georgia when she was sixteen
Spent vacation with her relation
'Bout a year or two in New Orleans
She's been in every state in Dixie
'cept the state of marriage bliss
She takes a dip each morning in the Brandy wine
Hangs her clothes upon the Mason Dixon Line
She was born and rais'd in Dixie
And she's Dixie all the time

My Love Affair With Trains
My Love Affair With Trains
Composer(s): Dolly Parton
Performer(s): Merle Haggard
Ev'rytime I hear the sound of a train
Comin' down that railroad track
I get that faraway look in my eye
And I'd like to throw my hammer down
And take off to some distant town
And not even take the time to say goodbye
I've got to think about my babies
About my job and my ol' lady
And how much she'd miss me if I's gone
And I love them more than anything
But I got this feelin' near by trains
And some other wish I's on that train and gone
That train keeps a-rollin' down the track
Bringin' my old mem'ries back
Makin' hobo blood boil in my veins
Revivin' my old love affair with trains
The nights ain't never long enough
My wife keeps sayin', "You get up
Or you'll be late to work and miss your ride"
I grab my dinner bucket up
And jump on the back of Joe's pickup truck
And I wonder if I'll jump that train tonight
And it wasn't long ago that I was free
To jump that train and ride
But I gave it up to be a family man
And I don't suppose I'll ever go
But when I hear that whistle blow
I think of my ol' love affair again
That train keeps comin' down the track
Bringin' my old mem'ries back
Makin' the hobo blood boil in my veins
Revivin' my old love affair with trains
That train keeps comin' down the track
Bringin' my old mem'ries back
Makin' the hobo blood boil in my veins
Revivin' my old love affair with trains

She's Dancing Her Heart Away
She's Dancing Her Heart Away
Composer(s): L. Wolfe Gilbert; Kerry Mills
Who is that beauty that's right over there
Dancing with, so much emotion
Wonderful eyes and such beautiful hair
Do you think that she's all devotion?
Just look at that smile on her face
The truth is, it's much out of place for
Melody seems to enchant her each night
Healing a heart that was broken
Dancing just seems to make everything right
Grief that has never been spoken
It's often that you heard them say
"If you dance, the fiddler you pay" for
She'd only one of many
Who's dancing her heart away
Each smile is a hidden teardrop
She's acting like in a play
There's many a dance dancing
Though she may seem happy and gay
Her heart it has yearned for a love that was spurned
She's dancing her heart away

She's Bringing You Down
She's Bringing You Down
Composer(s): Ian Carnochan
Performer(s): The Vibrators
Here she comes, you know she's bringing you down
You always said you'd be the last one to leave town
But now you say that she's a bitch
She's got that seven year itch
Been and put you in a ditch
An' you're gonna blow your brains out
Never saw her cheatin'
All you heard was your own poor heart beatin'
Don'tcha cry when you see her goin' by
Oh no no no no no no no
She's real dynamite, she'll make you scream and shout
You always said you knew what it was all about
But now you're caught in a trap
Oh my god you say as you look back
If only you'd known which way things were gonna be goin'
Never saw her cheatin'
All you heard was your own poor heart beatin'
Don'tcha cry when you see her goin' by
Oh no no no no no no no

She's Always A Woman
She's Always A Woman
Composer(s): Billy Joel
First release by: Billy Joel - 1977
Covered by multiple other artists
Versions In Other Languages:
1979 - Ein Engel, Der Weiss, Was Er Will (Helena Vondrácková)
1981 - M'n Beste Vriendin ((Rob de Nijs)
2003 - Altijd Een Man (Severine Doré)
She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child but she's always a woman to me
She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth but she'll never believe you
And she'll take what you give her as long as it's free
Yeah she steals like a thief but she's always a woman to me
Oh, she takes care of herself, she can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh, and she never gives out and she never gives in
She just changes her mind
And she'll promise you more than the garden of Eden
then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleeding
But she brings out the best and the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself cause she's always a woman to me
Oh, she takes care of herself, she can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh, and she never gives out and she never gives in
She just changes her mind
She is frequently kind and she's suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases, she's nobody's fool
But she can't be convicted, she's earned her degree
And the most she will do is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me

Altijd Een Man

Performer(s): Severine Doré - 2003
Hij verleidt met een lach, hij verwondt met een blik
Hij verwoest je vertrouwen in één ogenblik
Hij verbergt wat hij wil en onthult wat hij kan
Hij liegt als een kind, maar voor mij blijft hij altijd een man
Je weet niet of hij blijft, maar je blijft steeds geloven
En hij smeekt om je hart, maar hij wil niks beloven
En hij neemt wat hij denkt dat je best kan missen
Hij steelt als een dief, maar voor mij blijft hij altijd een man
Oh, hij is sterker dan ooit
En toch staat hij soms stil
Bij de klank van mijn stem
Oh, en hij geeft zich niet bloot
En hij weet wat hij wil
Ah, ik hou zo van hem
Hij belooft je altijd weer de hemel op aarde
En dan breekt hij je hart plots en lacht om je tranen
En het goede, het slechte, je neemt wat je kan
Dus verwijt het jezelf maar, voor mij blijft hij een man
Oh, hij is sterker dan ooit
En toch staat hij soms stil
Bij de klank van mijn stem
Oh, en hij geeft zich niet bloot
En hij weet wat hij wil
Ah, ik hou zo van hem
Hij is af en toe lief en dan plots heel brutaal
En hij doet wat hij wil, hij is niemand ten slaaf
Maar hij wordt niet veroordeeld, m’n reikt hem de hand
En misschien lacht hij soms als een jongen naar jou
maar voor mij blijft hij altijd een man

Performer(s): Rob de Nijs - 1981
Haar glimlach kan doden
haar ogen beloven
dingen die jij alleen gelooft in je dromen
ze laat alleen dat zien wat jou aan haar bindt
ze jokt als een kind
maar toch blijft ze mijn beste vriendin
Haar liefde verwart
ze verleidt of verlaat je
je geeft haar je hart en ze lacht
en verraad je
ze nam wat ik weggaf vanaf het begin
ze steelt als een dief
maar toch blijft ze mijn beste vriendin
Oh, ze past goed op zichzelf
en ze heeft alle tijd
want de tijd is van haar
Oh, ze geeft zich nooit bloot
ze geeft zelden iets toe
maakt alleen een gebaar
Ze toont je de hemel, ze geeft je de hel
ze wil echt wel trouw zijn
alleen aan zichzelf
wil jij zoet, wil zij zout
zij krijgt altijd haar zin
geef jezelf maar de schuld
want ze blijft toch mijn beste vriendin
Oh, ze past goed op zichzelf
en ze heeft alle tijd
want de tijd is van haar
Oh, ze geeft zich nooit bloot
ze geeft zelden iets toe
maakt alleen een gebaar
Voor onschuld te ijdel
voor jou veel te snel
je kan haar niet winnen
want jij bent haar spel
veroordeel haar niet omdat ik haar bemin
ach, ze geeft niets om jou
ze is meer dan m'n vrouw
ze is altijd m'n beste vriendin
Veroordeel haar niet omdat ik haar bemin
ze is meer dan m'n vrouw

Sie ist süß, wenn sie lächelt
Und lieb, wenn sie weint
Wenn sie bös ist,denkst du
Sie hat's nicht so gemeint
Wie ein Kätzchen treibt sie
Mit der Maus gern ihr Spiel
Mir scheint sie ist eben
Ein Engel, der weiß, was er will
Du erkennst ihre Tricks
Du durchschaust ihre Lügen
Doch schon mit einem Blick
Kann sie dich wieder kriegen
Du willst reden, sie küßt dich
Dann wirst du ganz still
Sie lockt mit dem Himmel
Ein Engel, der weiß, was er will
Oh, sie lenkt dich nur ganz sacht
Und gibt dir das Gefühl
Alles geht nur nach dir
Oh, oft genügt eine Nacht
Und schon ist sie am Ziel
Sie kennt Mittel dafür
Sie beschwört ihre Liebe
Mit Augengeklimper
Dann zerreißt sie dein Herz
Und zuckt nicht mit der Wimper
Und sie sieht dich verbluten
Dabei bleibt sie ganz kühl
Niemand tut gern so weh
Wie ein Engel, der weiß, was er will
Oh, sie lenkt dich nur ganz sacht
Und gibt dir das Gefühl
Alles geht nur nach dir
Oh, oft genügt eine Nacht
Und schon ist sie am Ziel
Sie kennt Mittel dafür
Hat sie dich erst gekränkt
Ist es sie, die verzeiht
Sie verletzt dich mit Absicht
Und dir tut es Leid
Immer wenn ich's mit anseh
Hab ich das Gefühl
Nur der Teufel allein
Könnte herzloser sein
Als ein Engel, der weiß, was er will

Composer(s): Wayne Carson
Performer(s): Gary Stewart
and multiple other artists
I've seen men look at before
And they think, I don't see them
I'd like to think it makes me proud
But, I'm only.. fooling me
I know she'll be lookin' back
The minute I'm not there
While she pours herself on some stranger
I pour myself a drink somewhere
She's acting single
I'm drinking double
I hide my pain
I drown my troubles
My heart is breaking
Like the tiny bubbles
She's acting single
I'm drinking doubles
I know all she plans to do
But I don't know where or when
If I ask who that stranger was
She'll just say, "an old friend"
I'm not weak, I tell myself
I stay because I'm strong
The truth is, I'm not man enough
To stop her from doing me wrong
She's acting single
I'm drinking doubles
I hide my pain
I drown my troubles
My heart is breaking
Like the tiny bubbles
She's acting single
I'm drinking doubles
She's acting single
I'm drinking doubles
I hide my pain
I drown my troubles
