What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?
What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?
Composer(s): Frank Loesser
First release by: Margaret Whiting - 1947
Covered by multiple other artists
Maybe it's much too early in the game
Aah, but I thought I'd ask you just the same
What are you doing New Year's
New Year's Eve?
Wonder whose arms will hold you good and tight
When it's exactly twelve o'clock that night
Welcoming in the New Year
New Year's Eve
Maybe I'm crazy to suppose
I'd ever be the one you chose
Out of a thousand invitations
You received
Aah, but in case I stand one little chance
Here comes the jackpot question in advance
What are you doing New Year's
New Year's Eve?

There Ain't No "Maybe" In My Baby's Eyes
There Ain't No "Maybe" In My Baby's Eyes
Composer(s): Walter Donaldson; Gus Kahn; Raymond B. Egan
Performer(s): Whispering Jack Smith
and multiple other artists
Doodle-do-do-do-do-do
Doodle-do-do-do-do-do
Doodle-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do...
My baby never told me
Exactly how I stand
She even tries to scold me
When I hold her little hand
My baby may be bashful
My baby may be shy
But I'm happy, oh, so happy
And I'll tell you why
Oh, I know my baby loves me
I can tell my baby loves me
For there ain't no maybe in my baby's eyes!
Even though she don't express it
She might just as well confess it
For there ain't no maybe in my baby's eyes!
We sit each evening
And never speak
I wish each evening
Could last a week
Oh, I know my baby loves me
I can tell my baby loves me
For there ain't no maybe in my baby's eyes!
Although our conversation Is mostly just "hello"
That certain hesitation
Every time I start to go
Her little way of saying
That little word "good-bye"
Makes me happy, oh, so happy
And here's just why
Oh, I know my baby loves me
I can tell my baby loves me
For there ain't no maybe in my baby's eyes!
And even though she don't express it
She might just as well confess it
Oh, there ain't no maybe in my baby's eyes!
We sit each evening
And never speak
And I wish each evening
Could last a week
Oh, I know my baby loves me
I can tell my baby loves me
For there ain't no maybe in my baby's eyes!
Oh, I know my baby loves me
I can tell my baby loves me
For there ain't no maybe in my baby's eyes!
Even though she don't express it
She might just as well confess it
For there ain't no maybe in my baby's eyes!
We sit each evening
And never speak
And I wish each evening
Could last a week
Oh, I know my baby loves me
I can tell my baby loves me
For there ain't no maybe in my baby's eyes!

What A World We'd Have
What A World We'd Have
Composer(s): Hap Palmer
Performer(s): Hap Palmer
It's a time for love and sharing
A time to sing a joyful song
What a world we'd have
If Christmas lasted all year long
It's a time for hope and caring
For learning how to get along
What a world we'd have
If Christmas lasted all year long
Ring the bells loud and clear
So our message all can hear
Everyone on this earth
Has their own special worth
It's a time to think of others
To open up our hearts with song
What a world we'd have
If Christmas lasted all year long
It's a time to work together
To sing of peace with voices strong
What a world we'd have
If Christmas lasted all year long

Si Je Devais Mourir D'amour
Si Je Devais Mourir D'amour
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour
Performer(s): Marcel Amont
Si je devais mourir d'amour
À chaque fois
Que je pense mourir d'amour
Je serai mort je crois
Depuis longtemps déjà
Et plusieurs fois
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
Si je devais tuer d'amour
A chaque fois
Que je pense tuer d'amour
Il n'y aurais pas assez de lois
Pas assez de tribunaux
D'avocats, de prisons, d'échafauds
Pour moi
Fort heureusement l'amour
C'est comme le printemps l'amour
Périodiquement
On oublie ses tourments
Pour de nouveaux tourments
On veux encore mourir d'amour
C'est ça l'amour
Quand on aime
On veut même
Tuer l'amour
Pourtant si je devais le faire
Je le regretterais après
Mais si il n'y avais pas ça sur la terre
La vie n'aurait aucun attrait
Aussi je veux toujours
Croire que je peux toujours
Par jalousie
Par folie ou dépit
Vous tuer mesdames ay ay ay ay
Ou mourir d'amour

What A Merry Christmas This Could Be
What A Merry Christmas This Could Be
Composer(s): Hank Cochran; Harlan Howard
Performer(s): Willie Nelson; George Strait
What a merry Christmas this could be
If you would just come back to me
And say that you've forgiven me
What a merry Christmas this could be
It was just last Christmas that we quarreled and you walked out
I knew I was wrong, but you'd come back, I had no doubt
Now a year has rolled around, it's Christmas once again
And what I'd give if you'd come walkin' in
What a merry Christmas this could be
If you would just come back to me
And say that you've forgiven me
What a merry Christmas this could be
What a merry Christmas this could be
If you would just come back to me
And say that you've forgiven me
What a merry Christmas this could be
What a merry Christmas this could be

Way Out There
Way Out There
Composer(s): Bob Nolan
Performer(s): Sons Of The Pioneers
and multiple other artists
A lonely spot, I know where no man will go
Where the shadows have all the room
I was ridin' free on the old SP
Humming a southern tune
When a man came along made me hush my song
Kicked me off, way out there
As she pulled out of sight I turned to the right
A left and everywhere
But all I could see was a cactus tree
And a prairie dog playing there
I watched the prairie dog feed on the tumbleweed
That's his home, way out there
So I threw down my load in the desert road
Rested my weary legs too
I watched the sinking sun, make the tall shadows run
Out across that barren plain
Then I hummed a tune to the risin' moon
He gets lonesome way out there
So I closed my eyes to the starlit skies
And lost myself in dreams
I dreamed the desert sand was a milk and honey land
Then I awoke with a start
There the train comin' back on that one way track
Gonna take me away from here
As she was passin' by, I caught her on the fly
I climbed in an open door
Then I turned around to that desert ground
Saw the spot I would see no more
As I was ridin' away
I heard the pale moon say
Farewell pal
It sure gets lonesome here

Shuffle Off To Buffalo
Shuffle Off To Buffalo
Composer(s): Al Dubin; Harry Warren
Performer(s): Ruby Keeler, Clarence Nordstrum, Ginger Rogers, Una Merkel
and multiple other artists
Now that we have had the rice and flowers
The knot is tied
I can visu'lize such happy hours
Close by your side
The honeymoon in store
Is one that you'll adore
I'm gonna take you for a ride
I'll go home and get my panties
You go home and get your scanties
And away we'll go
Mmm-mmm-mmm
Off we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo
To Niag'ra in a sleeper
There's no honeymoon that's cheaper
And the train goes slow
Ooh-ooh- ooh
Off, we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo
Someday, the stork may pay a visit
And leave a little souvenir
Just a little cute "what is it"
But we'll discuss that later, Dear
For a little silver quarter
We can have the Pullman porter
Turn the lights down low
Ooh!
Off we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo

Composer(s): Bill Anderson; Vline Buggy; Jerry D. Crutchfield
Performer(s): Sylvie Vartan
Si je chante, c'est pour toi
C'est pour toi
Oui pour toi
Je t'en prie, ne pleure pas
Et vas sécher tes larmes
Il t'a dit je t'aime, et tu l'as cru
C'était le soir même où tu l'as connu
Aujourd'hui tu pleures car tu l'as vu
Embrasser la meilleure de tes amies
Si je chante, c'est pour toi
C'est pour toi
Oui pour toi
Ne pleure pas, tu l'oublieras
Tu oublieras tes larmes
Je sais qu'il est dur de recommencer
Crois moi, crois moi, il faut lutter
Car tu as quinze ans et tu vas trouver
Le vrai bonheur longtemps espéré
Si je chante, c'est pour toi
C'est pour toi
Oui pour toi
Il faut chanter avec moi
Et oublier tes larmes
Si je chante, c'est pour toi
C'est pour toi
Oui pour toi
Il faut chanter avec moi
Et oublier tes larmes

We'll Dress The House
Composer(s): Alfred Shaddick Burt; Wihla Hutson
Performer(s): Voices Of Jimmy Joyce;
and various other artists
We'll dress the house with holly bright and sprigs of mistletoe
We'll trim the Christmas tree tonight and set the lights aglow
We'll wrap our gifts with ribbons gay and give them out on Christmas Day
By everything we do and say, our gladness we will show
We'll dress the table daintily, our finest treasures use
That all a-sparkle it may be and bright with lovely hews
Then for the feasting we'll prepare a kitchen full of wondrous fare
That each from all the dishes rare, his fav'rite one may choose
And ye who would the Christ child greet, your heart also adorn
That it may be a dwelling meet for Him who now is born
Let all unlovely things give place to souls bedecked with heavenly grace
That ye may view His holy face with joy on Christmas morn
We'll dress the house with holly bright and sprigs of mistletoe
We'll trim the Christmas tree tonight and set the lights aglow
We'll wrap our gifts with ribbons gay and give them out on Christmas Day
By everything we do and say, our gladness we will show

My Whole World Is Falling Down
(French Version: Si Je Chante)
Composer(s): Bill Anderson; Jerry Crutchfield
Performer(s): Brenda Lee
My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby
Told me that your love for me was true
Said you'd love me your whole life through
But now you're asking me to set you free
You've found some body you love more than me
My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby
I miss your loving that was so fine
I need it, I need it all of the time
For I still love you in the same old way
Yet I'm losing you a little every day
My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby
My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby

Weihnachtszeit, Kinderzeit
Weihnachtszeit, Kinderzeit
Composer(s): Udo Jürgens; Heinz Tust
Performer(s): Udo Jürgens
Lichterschein in jedem Fenster
und ich gehe durch die Stadt
hochgeschlagen ist mein Kragen,
und ich seh' manchen, der es eilig hat
Vor der Kirche bleib' ich stehen
schau' mich um und trete ein
und ich höre Kinder singen
meine Kindheit fällt mir ein
Weihnachtszeit, Kinderzeit
Alle Tage hell und froh
Oh, wäre es doch immer so
wie heut'
Weihnachtszeit, Kinderzeit
Und es brennt das Licht der Liebe
wenn man seinen Namen nennt
wie heut'
Die Erinnerung wird bleiben
wenn die Jahre auch vergeh'n
und wir denken still an morgen
wenn wir in die Kerzen seh'n
All die Kinder dieser Erde
ob sie groß sind oder klein
laße sie in Liebe leben
dann wird immer Frieden sein
Weihnachtszeit, Kinderzeit, ...

We're Over
We're Over
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): B.J. Thomas
and multiple other artists
We're over, I guess you know we're over
Even though all the words are still unsaid
And we talk of other things instead
We're over, we come and go, we're over
We go on like the actors in a play
Acting out our lives from day to day
Going through our phrases
With smiling frozen faces
That tell more than they hide
And knowin' when we fake it
It's not love when you make it
Without any feelin' inside
We're over, that's all we are, we're over
And all that's left is to find a reason why
We're over and we still can't say goodbye

Wear A Smile At Christmas
Wear A Smile At Christmas
Composer(s): Mark Lindsay; Terry Melcher
Performer(s): Paul Revere & The Raiders
Look at all the people hurrying by
No one's got time to smile
Each one busy in his own particular way
Hurrying nowhere, don't even know why
Mile after lonely mile,
Here's advice to brighten up their day
Wear a smile at Christmas
No one likes, no one likes to see a frown
Wear a smile at Christmas
No one likes, no one likes you when you're down
(My fellow Americans, be merry)
(Count your blessings for a while)
And wear a smile at Christmas
Wear a Christmas smile

Si J'avais Un Piano
Si J'avais Un Piano
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Gaby Wagenheim
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Si j'avais de l'argent, j'achèterais un piano
Quand j'aurai un piano je pourrai faire des gammes
Dés qu'on sait faire des gammes on peux jouer des morceaux
Aussi salle Gaveau je donnerais un programme
À ce programme viendrait tout un public ardant
Qui devant tant de talent m'enverrait ses bravos
Et grâce à leurs bravos je gagnerais de l'argent
Et avec cet argent j'achèterais un piano
Si j'avais de la chance je rencontrerais l'amour
En rencontrant l'amour je prendrais plus d'assurance
Avec cet assurance qui changerait mes jours
Paraissant bien plus fort j'inspirerais confiance
Avec désinvolture et beaucoup de élégance
À bien des jolies femmes je pourrais faire ma cour
Dés que j'aurais tout ça c'est que j'aurais de la chance
Et avec de la chance je rencontrerais l'amour
Si j'avais de l'argent je rencontrerais l'amour
En rencontrant l'amour j'achèterais un piano
Quand j'aurais un piano je pourrais faire ma cour
Et pour faire ma cour j'irai salle Gaveau
Avec désinvolture le public en confiance
Devant tant de jolies femmes enverrait ses bravos
Comme j'aurais des bravos, j'aurais aussi de la chance
Et avec cette chance, j'achèterais un piano
Et avec ce piano qui m'apportera de la chance
Je gagnerai de l'argent, et j'achèterai de l'amour

Always Gonna Love You
Always Gonna Love You
Composer(s): Gary Moore
Performer(s): Gary Moore
It's not the same when I look in her eyes
The magic's not there
And when I look, I realize
What we could have shared
I'm always gonna love you
If loving means forever
I'm always gonna want you
I don't think I could ever
Just forget the love we had
It's not the same when she's here in my arms
Or the smile on her face
And even though with all of her charms
She can't take your place
I'm always gonna love you
If loving means forever
I'm always gonna want you
I don't think I could ever
Just forget the love we had
It's not the same when I look in her eyes
The magic's not there
And when I look, I realize
What we could have shared
I'm always gonna love you
If loving means forever
I'm always gonna want you
I don't think I could ever
Just forget the love we had
I'm always gonna love you
If loving means forever
I'm always gonna want you
I don't think I could ever
Just forget the love we had
I'm always gonna love you ...

Where Have All The Hobos Gone
Where Have All The Hobos Gone
Composer(s): Dave Kirby; Danny Morrison
Performer(s): Merle Haggard
The silver rails have lost their shine
They're just the victims of our time
They might as well rust in the rain
What good's a track without a train
Where have all the hoboes gone
I never knew they even had a home
So Lord if you have turned your back
You might as well take off the track
I love to hear a whistle whin
Just ride a boxcar one more time
So Lord if you're still on my side
You'll send me one more train to ride
Where have all the hoboes gone
I never knew they even had a home
So Lord if you have turned your back
You might as well take off the track
Hm, hmm, so Lord if you're still on my side
You'll send me one more train to ride...

Si j'avais un marteau
Je cognerais le jour
Je cognerais la nuit
J'y mettrais tout mon cœur
Je bâtirais une ferme
Une grange et une barrière
Et j'y mettrais mon père
Ma mère, mes frères et mes sœurs
Oh oh, ce serait le bonheur
Si j'avais une cloche
Je sonnerais le jour
Je sonnerais la nuit
J'y mettrais tout mon cœur,
Pour le travail à l'aube
Et le soir pour la soupe
J'appellerais mon père
Ma mère, mes frères et mes sœurs
Oh oh, ce serait le bonheur
Si j'avais une chanson
J'la chanterais le jour
J'la chanterais la nuit
J'y mettrais tout mon cœur
En retournant la terre
Pour alléger nos peines
J'la chanterais à mon père
Ma mère, mes frères et mes sœurs
Oh oh, ce serait le bonheur
Si j'avais un marteau
Et si j'avais une cloche
Puis si j'avais une chanson à chanter
Je serais le plus heureux
Je ne voudrais rien d'autre
Qu'un marteau, une cloche et une chanson
Pour l'amour de mon père
Ma mère, mes frères et mes sœurs
Oh oh, ce serait le bonheur
C'est le marteau du courage
C'est la cloche de la liberté
Mais la chanson c'est pour mon père
Ma mère, mes frères et mes sœurs
Oh oh, pour moi c'est le bonheur
C'est ça le vrai bonheur
Si j'avais un marteau
Si j'avais un marteau
