Et Bonjour À Toi, L'artiste


Et Bonjour À Toi, L'artiste
Composer(s): J. Barnel - Pierre Delanoë
First performance by: Nicole Rieu - 1975



Et bonjour à toi, l'artiste
De n'importe où
Qui fais les jours gais ou tristes
Toi qui changes tout
Tu nous offres la musique
Comme un cadeau
Toi, le magicien des temps nouveaux
Et bonjour à toi le peintre
De la lumière
Qui connais toutes les teintes
De l'univers
Tu vas faire de l'an deux mille
Un millénaire
Le plus beau de l'histoire de la terre

Il est temps d'acheter des couleurs
Il est temps de te mettre au labeur
Il est temps, toi le compositeur
De te donner de tout ton coeur
Il est temps, et si tu commençais?
Maintenant, demain tout serait prêt
Il est temps
Tu fais ce qui te plaît
Prends tout ton temps
Mais ne le prends pas trop, s'il te plaît

Et bonjour à toi, l'artiste
Le grand auteur
Le brillant illusionniste
Le célèbre acteur
Tu vas nous changer le monde
Tu vas chanter
Pour nous faire oublier le passé

Il est temps d'acheter des couleurs
Il est temps de te mettre au labeur
Il est temps, toi le compositeur
De te donner de tout ton coeur
Il est temps, et si tu commençais?
Maintenant, demain tout serait prêt
Il est temps
Tu fais ce qui te plaît
Prends tout ton temps
Mais ne le prends pas trop, s'il te plaît

Ik hemmekik ’n farrem lief
’n Echte toffe bie
Ge zoud er zo in bijte
’t Moment da ge ze zie
Zij hee twee knappe bene
En ne sensuele mond
E lee-ke lak ’n wespetaille
En ook ’n farrem …

Pelse bere-mutske
Da dink sto d’ heur zo goe
Da pelse bere-mutske
Van m’ne kleine lieve chou

We reeje op ne zondag
Zo onder ons getwee
In mijn klein deux-cheveau-ke
Te same nor de zee
Op ’t strand liep z’ in ‘nen bikini
Wa was ze toch koket
Want ied’re vent dîen a d’ heur zag
Dîe loerde nor heur …

Pelse bere-mutske
Da dink sto d’ heur zo goe
Da pelse bere-mutske
Van m’ne kleine lieve chou

We waren is on ’t vrije
En lagen in het gras
Mor na e paar minute
Wazzet klett’renden ambras
Ne vreemde vent dîe kwam nor heur
Veur da ‘k er arg in had
Hij lachte-n-is venijnig
En schârde nor heur …

Pelse bere-mutske
Da dink sto d’ heur zo goe
Da pelse bere-mutske
Van m’ne kleine lieve chou

Den dag as da we trouwde
Veur de kerk en veur de staat
Dan kreeg ik van heur moeder
Ne leste goeie raad
Het menske zee och, joenge lief
Go na mor rap nor huis
Mor doe gin stoemmeteite
En zè zuinig oep heur …

Da pelse bere-mutske
Da dink sto d’ heur zo goe
Da pelse bere-mutske
Van m’ne kleine lieve chou
Da pelse bere-mutske

Slow Poke


Slow Poke
Composer(s): Pee Wee King; Redd Stewart; Chilton Price
Performer(s): Pee Wee King
and multiple other artists



You keep me waitin' till it's gettin' aggravatin'
You're a slow poke
I wait and worry but you never seem to hurry
You're a slow poke
Time means nothin' to you
I wait and then
You're late again, eight o'clock
Nine o'clock, quarter to ten

Why should I linger every time you snap your finger
Little slow poke
Why can't you hasten when you see the time's a-wastin'
You're a slow poke, dear
Why should I keep tryin' to change you
It's not the thing to do
I guess I'll have to learn to be a slow poke to

'T Is Weer Voorbij Die Mooie Zomer


'T Is Weer Voorbij Die Mooie Zomer ((aka Een Memorabele Zomer (Tom van Stiphout & Paul Poelmans) - 2003)) ((Adapted from: City Of New Orleans (Steve Goodman) - 1971)) Composer(s): Steve Goodman - Gerard Cox Performer(s): Gerard Cox - 1971

Versions In Other Languages: 1973 - Salut Les Amoureux (Joe Dassin) 1975 - Wann Wird's Mal Wieder Richtig Sommer (Rudi Carrell)



Nanana naa na naa
Na nana nana naa nanaa
Nanananana nana na naa na
Nana naa na nananananananananananaa
Je hebt 'r maandenlang naar uitgekeken
De kouwe winter wou maar eerst niet om
Traag en langzaam kropen langs de weken
Maar eindelijk daar was 'ie toch de zon
De nachten kort de dagen lang
De ochtend vol van vogelzang
't Scherpe hoge zoemen van een mug
Dan denk je, ha daar is-t-ie dan
Dit wordt minstens een zomer van een eeuw
Maar lieve mensen, oh, wat gaat 't vlug
't Is weer voorbij die mooie zomer
Die zomer die begon zowat in mei
Ah, je dacht dat er geen einde aan kon komen
Maar voor je 't weet is heel die zomer alweer lang voorbij
De wereld was toen vol van licht en leven
Van haringgeur vermengd met zonnebrand
'n Parasol om 't felle licht te zeven
En in je kleren schuurde zacht 't zand
We speelden golf en jeu de boules
We zonden zalig in een stoel
We dreven met een vlot op de rivier
We werden wekenlang verwend
Maar ach, aan alles komt 'n end
Nu zit ik met m'n dia's in de regen hier
't Is weer voorbij die mooie zomer
Die zomer die begon zowat in mei
Ah, je dacht dat er geen einde aan kon komen
Maar voor je 't weet is heel die zomer alweer lang voorbij
Nanana naa na naa
Na nana nana naa nanaa
Nanananana nana na naa na
Nana naa na nananananananananananaa
Herfst verkleurt weer langzaam alle bomen
'k Heb 's nachts allang weer m'n pyjama an
Dan had je es in juli moeten komen
Toen sliepen we 's nachts buiten op 't strand
En 's morgens vissen in de zon
En zwemmen zover als je kon
We voeren met 'n boot 'n end op zee
't Is jammer dat 't over ging
't Is allemaal herinnering
Daar doen we 't dan de hele winter maar weer mee
't Is weer voorbij die mooie zomer
Die zomer die begon zowat in mei
Ah, je dacht dat er geen einde aan kon komen
Maar voor je 't weet is heel die zomer alweer lang voorbij
Nanana naa na naa
Na nana nana naa nanaa
Nanananana nana na naa na
Nana naa na nananananananananananaa

That's What Friends Are For (The Swarbriggs)


That's What Friends Are For
First performance by: The Swarbriggs - 1975



When you're lonely when you're blue
When you need someone to talk to
When you need a talking to
And when troubles full and plenty
come piling at your door
That's what friends are for

Ladies & gentlemen of the whole wide world
If every now and then a single voice was heard
Telling it like it should be
Making it simple and plain
If that man needs a helping hand
Help him in from the rain

Now I know ya know you well
And I know that you've been worring
Its not hard for me to tell
But I'm standing right beside you
Of that you can be sure
That's what friend are for

Ladies & gentlemen of the whole wide world
If every now and then a single voice was heard
Telling it like it should be
Making it simple and plain
If that man needs a helping hand
Help him in from the rain

So remember, take your time
Just be sure and let it harmonise
Be sure and let it rhyme
I might call on you to see me through
So open up your door
That's what friends are for

That's what friends are for

'T Is Te Gek

'T Is Te Gek
English Title: Just Like That
Performer(s): De Ministars



Soms moet ik heel alleen een "song" in de morgen
't Klinkt zo gevoelig dat ik kippevel krijg
Als een betovering
Niemand luistert als ik zachtjes meezing

De zangeres zit zeker met een probleem
De tranen druppen door de radio heen
Ik kan haar niet verstaan
Waar zou al die ellende toch over gaan

('t Is te gek)
Dat ik er echt geen flauwe notie van heb
Waar het lied over gaat
Waar dat snikken op slaat

('t Is te gek)
Ik pak het woordenboek van 't school er maar bij
Maar de sound die ik mix
Nou die zegt me mooi niks

Toch zing ik door
"In a way", uit de weg
'k Voel me eenzaam
Altijd, m'n lover's een eenzame man

('t Is te gek)
Dat ik er echt geen flauwe notie van heb
Waar het lied over gaat
Waar dat snikken op slaat

't Zijn de gitaren die zo smart'lijk klinken
Het is een stem die iemand zacht iets verwijt
Of is dat fantasie
Misschien is ze gewoon een contactlens kwijt

('t Is te gek)
Dat ik er echt geen flauwe notie van heb
Waar het lied over gaat
Waar dat snikken op slaat

('t Is te gek)
Ik pak het woordenboek van 't school er maar bij
Maar de sound die ik mix
Nou die zegt me mooi niks

Toch zing ik door
"In a way", uit de weg
'k Voel me eenzaam
Altijd, m'n lover's een eenzame man

('t Is te gek)
Dat ik er echt geen flauwe notie van heb
Waar dat lied over gaat
Waar dat snikken op slaat

When you're feeling alright
Everything is up-tight
Try to sing a song that goes ding, ding a dong
There will be no sorrow
When you'll sing tomorrow
And you walk along with your ding dang dong

Ding a dong every hour
When you pick a flower
Even when your lover is gone gone gone
Ding a dong listen to it
Maybe it's a big hit
Even when your lover is gone gone gone
Sing ding dang dong

When you're feeling alright
Everything is up-tight
Try to sing a song that goes ding, ding a dong
And the world looks sunny
Everyone is funny

Even when your lover is gone gone gone
Ding a dong listen to it
Maybe it's a big hit
Even when your lover is gone gone gone
Sing ding dang dong

Ding dang dong, ding a dang dong
When you think it's all over
They let me down
Dry your tears and forget all your sorrow
Try to smile while you say goodbye
Ding dong, ding dong
Ding dang dong
When you'll wake up tomorrow
When the sun is up in the sky

When you're feeling alright
Everything is up-tight
Try to sing a song that goes ding, ding a dong
There will be no sorrow

'T Ain't Nobody's Bizness If I Do
Composer(s): P. Graninger; E. Robbins
Performer(s): Bessie Smith;
and various other artists



There ain't nothin' I can do
Or nothing I can say
That folks don't criticize me
But I'm gonna do what I want to anyway
And I don't care just what people say

If I should take a notion to jump into the ocean
't Ain't nobody's bizness if I do

If I go to church on sunday then cabaret all day monday
't Ain't nobody's bizness if I do

If my man ain't got no money and I say take all mine honey
't Ain't nobody's bizness if I do

If I give him my last nickle and it leaves me in a pickle
't Ain't nobody's bizness if I do

I'd rather my man would hit me than for him to jump up and quit me
't Ain't nobody's bizness if I do

I swear I won't call no coppa if I'm beat up by my poppa
't Ain't nobody's bizness if I do

Nobody's bizness, ain't nobody's bizness
Nobody's biznes if I do

Slow Hand


Slow Hand
Composer(s): John Bettis; Michael Clark
Performer(s): The Pointer Sisters



As the midnight moon, was drifting through
The lazy sway of the trees
I saw the look in your eyes, lookin' into mine
Seeing what you wanted to see
Darlin' don't say a word, cause I already heard
What your body's sayin' to mine
I'm tired of fast moves
I've got a slow groove...
On my mind

I want a man with a slow hand
I want a lover with an easy touch
I want somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
I want somebody who will understand
When it comes to love, I want a slow hand

On shadowed ground, with no one around
And a blanket of stars in our eyes
We are drifting free, like two lost leaves
On the crazy wind of the night
Darlin', don't say a word, 'cause I already heard
What your body's sayin' to mine
If I want it all night
You say it's alright
We got the time

'Cause I got a man with a slow hand
I got a lover with an easy touch
I found somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
I found somebody who will understand
When it comes to love, I want a slow hand

If I want it all night
Please say it's alright
It's not a fast move
But a slow groove
On my mind

'Cause I got a man with a slow hand
I got a lover with an easy touch
I found somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
I found somebody who will understand
When it comes to love, I want a slow hand

As the midnight moon, was drifting through
The lazy sway of the trees
I saw the look in your eyes, lookin' into mine
Seeing what you wanted to see
Darlin' don't say a word, cause I already heard
What your body's sayin' to mine
I'm tired of fast moves
I've got a slow groove...
On my mind

I want a man with a slow hand
I want a lover with an easy touch
I want somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
I want somebody who will understand
When it comes to love, I want a slow hand

On shadowed ground, with no one around
And a blanket of stars in our eyes
We are drifting free, like two lost leaves
On the crazy wind of the night
Darlin', don't say a word, 'cause I already heard
What your body's sayin' to mine
If I want it all night
You say it's alright
We got the time

'Cause I got a man with a slow hand
I got a lover with an easy touch
I found somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
I found somebody who will understand
When it comes to love, I want a slow hand

If I want it all night
Please say it's alright
It's not a fast move
But a slow groove
On my mind

'Cause I got a man with a slow hand

(This Is A) Song For The Lonely

(This Is A) Song For The Lonely
Composer(s): Paul Barry;
M. Taylor; Steve Torch
Performer(s): Cher; Share & Share Alike



When you're standing on the edge of nowhere
There's only one way up
So your heart's got to go there
Through the darkest night
See the light shine bright
When hero's fall, in love or war
They live forever

(Chorus)
This is a song - for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight
For the broken hearted, battle scared I'll
Be by your side
And this is a song - for the lonely
When your dreams won't come true
Can you hear this prayer
'Coz someone's there for you

We'll love don't need a reason
She can pick you up
Or leave you bleeding
I've seen a strong man cry
I know the reason why
We all forgive, we all forget
We just keep believing

(Chorus)

So let it find you
Wherever you may go
I'm right beside you
You don't have to look no more
You don't have to look no more, oh no

(Chorus)

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

This is a song
A song for the lonely
And that's not you only
Through the darkest night
You're gonna see the light

Love don't need a reason
Just to leave you bleeding

Can you hear this prayer
Someone's there

This is a song - for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight
For the broken hearted, battle scared
I'll be by your side
And this is a song
For the lonely

La Vie À 25 Ans


La Vie À 25 Ans
Composer(s): Christine Fontane
First performance by: Dani - 1974



Comme disait le vieux Sébastien
"Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien"
La vie c'est du cinéma
Qu'on ne regarde qu'une fois
Pourquoi bouder son désir
Quand y'a de la gêne, y'a pas de plaisir
Moi je dis tout simplement
C'est beau la vie à vingt cinq ans

Y'a pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien
La la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la

Toi, tu coupes, tu tailles, tu tranches
Ta vie n'est pas un dimanche
Tu réfléchis, tu t'inquiètes
Tu calcules et tu perds la tête
Pourquoi chercher à comprendre
Prends ce qui se laisse prendre
À toujours forcer ton coeur
Tu passes à côté du meilleur

Y'a pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien
La la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la

Quand j'aime, je le crie bien haut
Et j'en profite autant qu'il faut
Moi je vis tout simplement
C'est bien la vie à vingt cinq ans

Y'a pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien.
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien
La la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la

Pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien

(There's No) Gettin' Over Me

(There's No) Gettin' Over Me
Composer(s): Walt Aldridge; Tom Brasfield
Performer(s): Ronnie Milsap; Big Mountain



Well you can walk out on me tonight
If you think that it ain't feelin' right
But darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me

Well you can say that you need to be free
But there ain't no place that I won't be
Sweet darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me

I'll be the bill you forgot to pay
I'll be the dream that keeps you awake
I'll be the song on the radio
I'll be the reason that you tell the boys no
Don't you know

You can tell everyone that we're through
You might even believe it too
But darlin'
There's ain't no gettin' over me
Sweet darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me

I'll be the face that you see in a crowd
I'll be the times that you cry out loud
I'll be the smile when there's no one around
I'll be the book that you just can't put down

So you can walk out on me tonight
If you think that it ain't feelin' right
But darlin'
There ain't no getting over me

You'll see
Sweet, darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
No, no, no, no, no Darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
Ooooh, mmmm
No, darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
Ooooh, darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me

Slow Down Sweet Mama


Slow Down Sweet Mama
Composer(s): Leon Chappel
Performer(s): Leon Chappel



Slow down sweet mama
Now, can't you see you're killin' me
Lord, I'm tired of your two-timin'
And the way you're doggin' me
I'm sick and tired of talkin'
Tryin' to get you to slow down

She come home this mornin'
The sun was shinin' bright as day
Out all night, sweet mama
With your low down triflin' way
I'm fed up and disgusted
You can't be trusted, night or day

So, slow down sweet mama
You're way ahead of me a mile
Lord, I can't keep up sweet mama
With your speedy streamline style
I'm sick and tired of talkin'
Tryin' to get that gal to slow down

Yes, yes, yes
Why don't you slow down, honey
Take your time, take your time

Go slow sweet mama
Why don't you try to please behave
She's sure mean mistreatin'
Your Poppa's hair is turnin' gray
Lord, I'm sick and tired of pleadin'
Tryin' to get my gal to slow down

I've tried sweet mama
To make you love me and do right
But it just ain't in you, mama
You're honky-tonkin' every night
I'm sick and tired of talkin'
Tryin' to get that gal to slow down

Now, so long sweet mama
You know you done your Poppa wrong
If you don't believe I'm leavin'
Mama, count the days I'm gone
'Cause I'm sick and tired of pleading
Tryin' to get that gal to slow down

There's a goldmine in the sky far away We will find it, you and I, some sweet day There'll be clover just for you down the line Where the skies are always blue, pal of mine Take your time, old mule, I know you're growing lame But you'll pasture in the stars when we strike that claim And we'll sit up there and watch the world roll by (the world roll by) When we find that long lost goldmine in the sky (in the sky) Mmm-mmm-mmm (far away, far away), mmm-mmm-mmm (far away, far away) Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmmmmm And we'll say hello to friends who said goodbye (who said goodbye) When we find that long lost goldmine in the sky (far away in the sky)

Well, come on pretty baby won't you walk with me

Carry your books home, too
But now you got a boyfriend down the street
Baby what're you trying to do a do
You better slow down

Baby, now you're moving way too fast
You got to give me little loving
give me little loving
Brrr, if you want our love to last

Well you know that I love you, tell the world I do
Come on pretty baby, why can't you be true
I need you badly, baby, oh so bad
The best little woman I ever had
Slow down

Baby, now you're moving way too fast
You got to give me little loving
give me little loving
Ow, if you want our love to last

(There's A) Bluebird On Your Windowsill

(There's A) Bluebird On Your Windowsill
Composer(s): Elizabeth Clarke
Performer(s): Tex Williams; Doris Day;
Audrey Williams;
Wilf "Montana Slim" Carter



(There's a bluebird)

There's a bluebird

(There's a rainbow)

There's a bluebird on your windowsill
There's a rainbow in your sky
There are happy thoughts, your heart to fill
Near enough to make you cry

(There's a bluebird)

There he is

(There's a rainbow)

And with every tear you've washed away
All the things you've kept inside
You count your joys this lovely day
And you wonder why you cried

There's a bluebird on your windowsill
There's a rainbow in your sky
There are happy thoughts, your heart to fill
Near enough to make you cry

(There's a bluebird)

Look at him out there, ain't he pretty

(There's a rainbow)

And if perchance your heart grow sad
You still can smile again
And with every tear you've ever had
Comes the sunshine after rain

[Orchestral Break]

There's a bluebird

(Yes, yes)

There's a rainbow

(Hear, hear)

[Orchestral Break]

The rainy days may come and go
But the clouds soon roll away
Everything will come that you wish it so
As an answer when you pray

There's a bluebird on your windowsill
There's a rainbow in your sky
There're happy thoughts, your heart to fill
Near enough to make you cry

(There's a bluebird)

Cutest feathers

(There's a rainbow)

Lovely weather

(There's a bluebird)

Look at that bluebird and the rainbow in the sky

Slow Dancing


Slow Dancing
Composer(s): Jack Tempchin
Performer(s): Johnny Rivers
and multiple other artists



It's late at night and we're all alone, with just the music of the radio
No one's coming, no one's gonna telephone
Just me and you and the lights down low - and we're

Slow dancing, swaying to the music, slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, no one else in the whole wide world
Just you, girl

And we just flow together when the lights are low
And shadows dancing across the wall
The music's playing so soft and low
And the rest of the world so far away and small

Slow dancing, swaying to the music, slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, no one else in the whole wide world
Just you, girl

Hold me, please hold me, don't ever let me go

And as we dance together in the dark
There's so much love in this heart of mine
She whispers to me and I hold her tight
You're the one I thought I'd never find

Slow dancing, swaying to the music, slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, no one else in the whole wide world
Just you, girl

(There's A Little Lane Without A Turning) On The Way To Home Sweet Home

(There's A Little Lane Without A Turning) On The Way To Home Sweet Home
Composer(s): Sam M. Lewis; George W. Meyer



I wonder if they miss me nowadays
I wonder if they would forgive my ways
I'd love to kiss somebody I adore
I'd give a lot to see them all once more
I haven't treated them just as I should
I'd go home tomorrow if I could

When every friend you've had has turned you down
When every smile has turned into a frown
When every finger points at you in shame
Somebody home says you are not to blame
I sometimes hear somebody teaching me
My first lesson in geography

There's a little lane without a turning
On the way to home sweet home
There's a little mother always yearning
For the ones that long to roam
There's a road that leads to strangers
That's where friendship parts
Another leads to dangers
And it's paved with broken hearts
Take the little lane without a turning
On the way to home sweet home
