Put Me On The Trail To Carolina
Put Me On The Trail To Carolina
Composer(s): Alton Delmore; Rabon Delmore
Performer(s): Matt Watroba;
and various other artists
I left my cabin home, started out to roam
But I didn't like it in the mountains
Thought I'd like to stay in the city gay
But it's got the best of me
Put me on the trail to Carolina
That is where I long to be
Where the mountains high reach into the sky
There my sweetheart waits for me
Hand in hand, together in the twilight
Strolling down the trail, we two
Carolina girl, sweetest in the world
Underneath the sky so blue
That old dog of mine, let me hear him whine
When he smells a possum in the mountain
Underneath the moon, let me hum a tune
Strummin' on my old guitar
Put me on the trail to Carolina
That is where I long to be
Where the mountains high reach into the sky
There my sweetheart waits for me
Hand in hand, together in the twilight
Strolling down the trail, we two
Carolina girl, sweetest in the world
Underneath the sky so blue

Vuelve Conmigo
Vuelve Conmigo
First performance by: Anabel Conde - 1995
He sentido el vacío
Y un recuerdo dormido vuelve a despertar
No te tengo conmigo
Y me hiere por dentro tanta soledad
¿Quién sabe dónde estás?
¿Quién sabe dónde estás?
Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo
Ven, ven, que necesito tu amor
Ven, yo no te olvido
Vuelve conmigo, mi amor
Nada queda en el alma
Solamente esa llama que no morirá
Que me quema en el pecho
Cuando, sola en mi lecho
Siento que no estás
Me tienes que escuchar
Me tienes que escuchar
Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo
Ven, ven, que necesito tu amor
Ven, vuelve conmigo
Dale a este invierno calor
Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo
Ven, ven, ya te he pedido perdón
(Ven) Ven, yo no te olvido
Vuelve conmigo, mi amor
Ooohh... (Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo)
(Ven, ven, que necesito tu amor)
Ven, ven, ven (Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo)
(Dale a este invierno calor) Oh, yeah, yeah
Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo
Ven, ven, ya te he pedido perdón
(Ven) Ven, yo no te olvido
Vuelve conmigo, mi amor

Put It There Pal
Put It There Pal
Composer(s): Johnny Burke; Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Bing Crosby & Bob Hope
I don't care where I'm goin'
Just as long as I'm with you
Put it there, pal
Put it there
I'll be just like your horses
And I'll stick to you like glue
Put it there, pal
Put it there
I'm glad you're fooling Pepsodent (oh, that happy snow)
Stealing all that cash
I hear your show on Thursdays (nice, huh?)
What a lot of eggs you smash
Well at least I don't depend upon
Colonna's big moustache (oh, he gave me the brush)
You're faithful and you're fair
Put it there (skin me Dad, skin me)
You've got that something in your voice
So right for selling cheese (hustle a lot of the stuff)
Put it there, pal
Put it there (put that back in the bowl)
You know, I think your jokes are great (really?)
It's just that folks are hard to please (they're just snobs, that all)
Put it there, pal
Put it there
Your face could make a fortune
Just your nose should make a lot (how do you siphon?)
I like the way you wear those gaudy-colored shirts you've got, boy!
The only time a rainbow ever covered up a pot
You're such a perfect square (oh-oh, is that on the paper?)
(where?, where?)
Shall we dance?
Sorry, I have my heavy underwear on
Oh, just to once around, to the adrenalin, huh?
Well, OK, if I lead
My colleague, my crony, my cohort, my friend
Companions, confederates, chums to the end
Like meat and potatoes, or salt and tomatoes
Boy, what a blend
Don't put it in the paper (don't worry about me)
Don't put it on the air (I'll finish it)
Don't put it in your pipe
Put it there
Confidentially, do you like this as well as singing?
Leave your name with the girl when you go out
We may get to you for some crowd noises
Be sure and call me
All right

Put 'Em In A Box, Tie 'Em With A Ribbon
Put 'Em In A Box, Tie 'Em With A Ribbon
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn; Jule Styne
Performer(s): Doris Day;
and various other artists
You can take the moon
Gather up the stars
And the robins that sing merrily
Put 'em in a box
Tie I’em with a ribbon
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
You can take the flowers
Down in lovers lane
And that sentimental poetry
Put 'em in a box
Tie I’em with a ribbon
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
Not for me, all that stuff
The dreams that ruin your sleep
Not for me, had enough
Love is one thing you can keep
You can take the plans
And the wedding bells
And whoever sings "Oh Promise Me"
Put 'em in a box
Tie I’em with a ribbon
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
'Cause love and I we don't agree
Hansoms through the park
Kisses in the dark
And the promises made faithfully
Put 'em in a box
Tie ‘em with a ribbon
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
And you won't go wrong
If you take a song
Sung by Frankie Boy or Mr. C
Put 'em in a box
Tie ‘em with a ribbon
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
Not for me, all that stuff
The dreams that ruin your sleep
Not for me, had enough
Love is one thing you can keep
You know what to do
With old "Tea for Two"
And the girl for you, the boy for me
Put 'em in a box
Tie ‘em with a ribbon
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
'Cause love and I we don't agree

Die Welt Dreht Sich Verkehrt
Die Welt Dreht Sich Verkehrt
First performance: Stella Jones - 1995
Das Leben wirft mich aus der Bahn
Wenn du mich ansiehst
Und dann deine Hand mich berührt
Es macht sich auf und davon, von dem Moment an
In dem dein Kuß mich verführt
Jede Norm ist mir egal
Und der Wahnsinn wird normal
Die alte Welt dreht sich verkehrt
Wird federleicht, und schwebt davon
Gold und Platin sind nichts mehr wert
Ich bin Millionär, wenn ich bei dir bin
Lachen und Weinen vereint
Komm' mach aus mir einen Clown
Du Akrobat ohne Seil
Fliegt mit mir durch die Zeit
Ein Haus aus Tagträumen bauen
Wahrheit oder Betrug
Kein Problem weit und breit
Jede Norm ist mir egal
Und der Wahnsinn wird normal
Wird normal...
(Die alte Welt dreht sich verkehrt)
Wird federleicht, und schwebt davon
Gold und Platin sind nichts mehr wert
Ich bin Millionär, und leb' davon
Die alte Welt dreht sich verkehrt
Wird federleicht
Wenn ich bei dir bin
Lachen und Weinen vereint
Die Welt dreht sich verkehrt

Performer(s): Tompall Glaser;
The Geezinslaws; Roger Alan Wade
Put another log on my fire
cook me up some bacon and some beans
And go out to the car and change the tyre

Come on, baby, you can
fill my pipe and then go fetch my slippers
and boil me up another pot of tea
Then put another log on my fire, babe
and come and tell me why you`re leaving me
Oh, don`t I let you wash the car on Sunday
don`t I warn you when you`re getting fat
Ain`t I gonna take you fishing with me some day
well, a man can`t love a woman more than that
Ain`t I always nice to your kid sister
don`t I take her driving every night
So sit here at my feet
`cause I like you when you`re sweet
and you know it ain`t feminine to fight
So...
Put another log on my fire
cook me up some bacon and some beans
And go out to the car and change the tyre
wash my socks and sew my old blue jeans
Come on, baby, you can
fill my pipe and then go fetch my slippers
and boil me up another pot of tea
Then put another log on my fire, babe
and come and tell me why you`re leaving me

Þessi nótt er fyrir okkur, þessi koss er handa þér
Hann mun ljóm' í gegnum tárin, þegar loks að morgn' ég fer
Núna, ef þú vilt, mun nóttin elska þig af líf' og sál

Put A Ring On My Finger
Put A Ring On My Finger
Composer(s): Robert Duke
Performer(s): Les Paul & Mary Ford
Just put a ring on my finger
A kiss on my cheek
And you can bet your life
I'll marry you in the best side of a week
Just say you love me
Be faithful and true
And there's nothing in this great big world
I wouldn't do for you
Now some folks are so bashful
When it comes to making love
Some folks much too forward
And others need a shove
I studied love most carefully
And this way you can't miss
Offer me all your love
A ring and a kiss
Just put a ring on my finger
A kiss on my cheek
And you can bet your life
I'll marry you in the best side of a week
Just say you love me
Be faithful and true
And there's nothing in this great big world
I wouldn't do for you

Song To The Siren
Song To The Siren
Composer(s): Larry Beckett - Tim Buckley
First release by: Tim Buckley - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists
Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your isle
And you sang
Sail to me
Sail to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you hare when I was fox?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken lovelorn on your rocks,
For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow
O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow"
I am puzzled as the newborn child
I am troubled at the tide
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Should I lie with Death my bride?
Hear me sing, "Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me enfold you
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"

So you told all the boys that you were gonna take me out
Ya even ya even had the nerve to make a bet a yes you did

But you haven't, you haven't won it yet
You took me for a pushover

You thought my love was easy to get
All of the girls think you're fine

Ya got 'em, yeah, you got 'em runnin' to and fro

And I can tell by your line, yours is not the lasting kind
You took me for a push over
Oh, you thought I was a pushover
Whoa, I'm not a push over
You thought that you could change my mind
Your temptin' lips (Mmm hmm) your wavy hair (Oh yeah)
Your pretty eyes with that (Ahh...) come hither stare
It makes me weak and I, I start to bend
And then I stop and think again
No (No), no (No), no don't let yourself go

I want true love not an imitation
And I'm hip to every word in your conversation

Sometimes I can't see past a day
I know I'm growin' tired and I feel it, yeah
And the song that I sing when the notes begin to ring
it's hard for my head to get into the melody, yeah
Day to day, I tell you, day by day
I see faces all around me
When they start to smile, I just stop for a while
and I say baby, let me love you
A small town store with an old wooden floor
The old man inside sellin' dried goods
has a smile on his face, don't you know that's hard to replace
I bet he's gonna live to be a hundred, yeah
Day to day, I tell you, day by day
I see faces all around me
When they start to smile I just stop for a while
and I say baby, let me love you
Summer is hot, and the winter is cold
people all doin' just what they're told
It's too bad, it's too sad
Thinkin' for yourself is a hard thing to do
well, don't you know they're depending on you
to see them through, yeah, to see them through?
It's the only thing you can do
you know you got to see them through
Day to day, I tell ya, day by day
I'm seein' faces all around me
When you start to smile, I just stop for a while
And I say baby, let me know you
Shinin' my light like a candle so bright

Hear me baby, oh, hear me baby, but you

Purple Robe
Purple Robe
Composer(s): Odell McLeod
Performer(s): The Stanley Brothers;
and various other artists
There's a story so unkind in the Holy book we find
And it tells how Jesus stood alone one day
False accused and there condemned yet they found no fault with Him
The man who wore the scarlet purple robe
Purple robe my Savior wore oh the shame for me he bore
As He stood alone, forsaken on that day
And they placed upon His head piercing thorns and blood stained red
His raiment was a scarlet purple robe
In the common judgment hall he was mocked and scorned by all
And a tear of sorrow fell upon His cheek
Soldiers of the wicked man smote Him with their evil hand
The Man who wore the scarlet purple robe
Words of truth that day were plain from the lips of Pilot came
In this man I find no reason He should die
But the multitudes replied let Him now be crucified
The man who wore the scarlet purple robe
Oh the River Of Jordan is many miles away
And this mighty river I may never see
But I'll find myself an alter in an old fashioned church
And my River Of Jordan that will be

Verliebt In Dich
Verliebt In Dich
Composer(s): Cheyenne Stone
First performance by: Stone & Stone - 1995
Manchmal, wenn ich ratlos bin
Und mein Glaube sich verirrt
Tief in mir die Trauer brennt
Jage nur hinter Träumen her
Ist mein Leben endlos leer?
Finde keinen Frieden mehr
Sehnsucht schreit, Geborgenheit
Doch du bist da neben mir
Hey!
Kennst du das Gefühl?
Du bist allein und die Seele friert
Mensch sein ist so schwer
Traue Deinem Engel tief in dir
Glaub' mir, ich steh' zu dir
Du allein bist der Grund dafür
Ich fühle dich nah, so nah bei mir
Fängst alle meine Tränen auf
Oh Lord, bin verliebt in dich
Kann mich nicht wehren, nicht zu erklären
Was zwischen Himmel und Erde geschieht
Oh Lord, bin verliebt in dich
Kann mich nicht wehren, nicht zu erklären
Erinnerung bleibt und erzählt von dir
Allein du bist der Grund dafür
Angst, ich lass dich weiter ziehen
Hab' dich oft genug erkannt
Ich weiß, mir kann jetzt nichts passieren
Trage ein Herz voll Licht in mir
Stille Nacht, ich traue dir
Für mich gibt es keine Zweifel mehr
Kann dich niemals mehr verlieren
Ein Traum wird wahr, nur mit dir
Oh Lord, bin verliebt in dich
Kann mich nicht wehren, nicht zu erklären
Was zwischen Himmel und Erde geschieht
Oh Lord, bin verliebt in dich
Kann mich nicht wehren, nicht zu erklären
Erinnerung bleibt und erzählt von dir
Allein du bist der Grund dafür
Du kannst meine Seele sehen
All das Licht in ihr gehört nur dir
Oh... bin verliebt in dich
Kann mich nicht wehren, nicht zu erklären
Was zwischen Himmel und Erde geschieht
Bin so verliebt in dich
Bin so verliebt in dich
