You're The First, The Last, My Everything
Composer(s): Peter Radcliffe; Tony Sepe; Barry White
Performer(s): Barry White;
and various other artists
We got it together, didn't we?
Nobody but you and me
We got it together, baby
My first, my last, my everything
And the answer to all my dreams
You're my sun, my moon, my guiding star
My kind of wonderful, that's what you are
I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
You're, you're all I'm living for
Your love I'll keep for evermore
You're the first, my last, my everything
In you I've found so many things
A love so new, only you could bring
Can't you see if you
You'll make me feel this way
You're like a first morning dew on a brand new day
I see so many ways that I can love you
'Till the day I die....
You're my reality, yet I'm lost in a dream
You're my first, my last, my everything
{instrumental}
I know there's only one, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
Girl, you're my reality
But I'm lost in a dream
You're the first, you're the last, my everything

A Hole To Fill
A Hole To Fill
Composer(s): Bob Geldof
Performer(s): Bob Geldof
Everybody's got a hole to fill
It doesn't matter if your name is Jack or Jill
Everybody's got a hole that they need filled
She wakes up
Still looking lost
And says what's the point of this
And I say not a lot
Still she gets up
And through her weary smile
She tries to find the strength
To carry on a while
Two days ago
She wrote away
To a mail order guru
Her postal sage
Who promised answers
By return of mail
Explaining why
Sometimes it seems
The world has failed
He wrote back
I left the pub last night
And I was just in time
To see them break my windows
And slash my tyres
I'm a liberal I thought
As I felt my anger rise
I was desperately searching
For my feminine side
But my feminine side
Was on her morning coffee break
I beat the shit out of one
And boy, I felt great
Hey Bob, he said don't get annoyed
We all find different ways
To fill up the void
And I said yeah

Performer(s): Elvis Presley;

You look like an angel
Walk like an angel
Talk like an angel
But I got wise
You're the devil in disguise
Oh yes you are
The devil in disguise

You cheated and you schemed
Heaven knows how you lied to me
You're not the way you seemed
You look like an angel
Walk like an angel
Talk like an angel
But I got wise
You're the devil in disguise
Oh yes you are
The devil in disguise
I thought that I was in heaven
But I was sure surprised
Heaven help me, I didn't see
The devil in your eyes
You look like an angel
Walk like an angel
Talk like an angel
But I got wise
You're the devil in disguise
Oh yes you are
The devil in disguise
You're the devil in disguise
Oh yes you are
The devil in disguise

A História de Lily Braun
A História de Lily Braun
Composer(s): Chico Buarque, Edú Lobo
Performer(s): Edú Lobo; Gal Costa; Leila Pinheiro
Como num romance
O homem de meus sonhos
Me apareceu no dancing
Era mais um
Só que num relance
Os seus olhos me chuparam
Feito um zoom
Ele me comia
Com aqueles olhos
De comer fotografia
Eu disse cheese
E de close em close
Fui perdendo a pose
E até sorri, feliz
Como no cinema
Me mandava às vezes
Uma rosa e um poema
Foco de luz
Eu, feito uma gema
Me desmilinguando toda
Ao som do blues
Abusou do scotch
Disse que meu corpo
Era só dele aquela noite
Eu disse please
Xale no decote
Disparei com as faces
Rubras e febris
E voltou
No derradeiro show
Com dez poemas e um buquê
Eu disse adeus
Já vou com os meus
Numa turnê
Como amar esposa
Disse ele que agora
Só me amava como esposa
Não como star
Me amassou as rosas
Me queimou as fotos
Me beijou no altar
Nunca mais romance
Nunca mais cinema
Nunca mais drinque no dancing
Nunca mais cheese
Nunca uma espelunca
Uma rosa nunca
Nunca mais feliz

You're The Cream In My Coffee
You're The Cream In My Coffee
Composer(s): B.G. DeSylva; Lew Brown; Ray Henderson
Performer(s): Ruth Etting;
and various other artists
You’re the cream in my coffee
You’re the salt in my stew
You will always be my necessity
I’d be lost without you
You’re the starch in my collar
You’re the lace in my shoe
You will always be my necessity
I’d be lost without you
Most men tell love tails
And each phrase dovetails
You’ve heard each known way
This way is my own way
You’re the sail of my love boat
You’re the captain and crew
You will always be my necessity
I’d be lost without you
You give life savor
Bring out its flavor
So this is clear, dear
You’re my worcestershire, dear
You’re the sail of my love boat
You’re the captain and crew
You will always be my necessity
I’d be lost without you

A Higher Place
A Higher Place
Composer(s): Tom Petty
Performer(s): Tom Petty
We gotta get to a higher place
And we gotta leave by night
Before that river takes us down
We gotta find somewhe re that's dry
We gotta run like we never run
Or we're gonna lose the light
If we don't get to a higher place and
Find somebody, can help somebody
Might be nobody no more
We gotta get to a higher place
And I hope we all arrive together
We gotta get to a higher place
If we wanna survive the weather
Well, I fool myself and I don't know why
I thought we could ride this out
I was up all night making up my mind
But now I got my doubts
I got my eye on the waterline
Trying to keep my sense of humor
But if we don't get to a higher place and
Find somebody, can help somebody
Might be nobody no more
We gotta get to a higher place
And I hope we all arrive together
We gotta get to a higher place
If we wanna survive the weather
I remember walking with her in town
Her hair was in the wind
I gave her my best kiss
She gave it back again
When I add up what I've left behind
I don 't want to lose no more
But if we don't get to a higher place and
Find somebody, can help somebody
Might be nobody no more

A Heartsick Soldier On Heartbreak Ridge
A Heartsick Soldier On Heartbreak Ridge
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb - Max Fidler - Nelie Kane
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
I’m tired and weary, forgotten and blue
With only one question in mind
How long, ‘O how long, till I’m back home again
With the Sweetheart I left behind
I’m A Heartsick Soldier On Heartbreak Ridge
Across from the River of Si
Where the shells burst around me
And cover the sound of a poor lonely heart when it cries
Does the girl I love know I miss her tonight
And how often I mention her name
Does she know how I long for the sound of her voice
And the love letters that never came
I’m A Heartsick Soldier On Heartbreak Ridge
Across from the River of Si
Where the shells burst around me
And cover the sound of a poor lonely heart when it cries
Will my prayers be answered on Heartbreak Ridge
Will the one that I love still be true
Does she count the hours until I return
My poor heart could rest if I knew
I’m A Heartsick Soldier On Heartbreak Ridge
Across from the River of Si
Where the shells burst around me
And cover the sound of a poor lonely heart when it cries

A Heart In New York
A Heart In New York
Composer(s): Benny Gallagher - Graham Lyle
Performer(s): Art Garfunkel; Simon & Garfunkel
New York, to that tall skyline I come, flying in from London to your door
New York, looking down on Central Park
where they say you should not wander after dark
New York, like a scene from all those movies
but you're real enough to me, but there's a heart
a heart that lives in New York
A heart in New York, a rose on the street
I write my song to that city heartbeat
A heart in New York, a love in her eye, an open door and a friend for the night
New York, you got money on your mind
and my words won't make a dime's worth a difference, so here's to you New York
New York, now my plane is touching down

You're Such A Good Looking Woman
You're Such A Good Looking Woman
Composer(s): Albert Hammond; Lee Hazlewood
Performer(s): Joe Dolan
When God created a woman for me
He must have been in a beautiful mood
To show the world what a woman could be
When he created a woman like you
He made the sun shine right out of your eyes
And made the moon glow all over your hair
He put a soft summer breeze in your sighs
So you would breathe summer into the air
Oh me, oh my, you make me sigh
You're such a good lookin' woman
When people stop and people stare
You know it fills my heart with pride
You watch their eyes, they're so surprised
They think you've fallen out of heaven.
And if you listen to what they're talkin' about
They're talkin' about who's walkin' about with an angel at his side
Up there in heaven I'll bet they are mad
I'll bet somebody will want to know why
The most incredible angel they had
Was found to be quite unable to fly
D'you know what they had forgotten to do
Up there where they make all those heavenly things
They made an angel as lovely as you
But they'd forgotten to fit you with wings
Oh me, oh my, you make me sigh
You're such a good lookin' woman
When people stop and people stare
You know it fills my heart with pride
You watch their eyes, they're so surprised
They think you've fallen out of heaven.
And if you listen to what they're talkin' about
They're talkin' about who's walkin' about with an angel at his side

A Healer Like Time
A Healer Like Time
Composer(s): Hank Cochran
Performer(s): Eddie Cochran; Big Sandy & His Fly-Rite Boys
My heart was a playground where you played about
When you got through playin' you just walked out
I thought when you left me, that I'd lose my mind
But now I've forgotten with a healer like time
They said I'd forget you, I thought they were wrong
I thought for a lifetime, my love would be strong
But now I've forgotten and you're out of my mind
Oh I'm so thankful for a healer like time
I used to remember the dreams that we knew
When your life was my life, your thoughts were mine too
But since we have parted, I've forgotten by far
Oh I'm so thankful for a healer like time

You're Still On My Mind
You're Still On My Mind
Composer(s): Luke McDaniel
Performer(s): George Jones;
and various other artists
The jukebox is playin' a honky-tonk song
"One more", I keep sayin', "and then I'll go home"
What good will it do me, I know what I'll find
An empty bottle, a broken heart and you're still on my mind
The people are dancin' and havin' their fun
And I sit here thinkin' about what you have done
To try and forget you, I've turned to the wine
An empty bottle, a broken heart and you're still on my mind
Alone and forsaken, so blue I could cry
I just sit here drinkin' till the bottle runs dry
What good will it do me, I know what I'll find
An empty bottle, a broken heart and you're still on my mind
An empty bottle, a broken heart and you're still on my mind

A Hazy Shade Of Winter
A Hazy Shade Of Winter
Composer(s): Paul Simon
First release by: Simon & Garfunkel - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists
Time, time, time
See what's become of me
Time, time, time, see what's become of me
While I looked around for my possibilities
I was so hard to please
Look around, leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
Hear the Salvation Army Band
Down by the riverside, it's bound to be a better ride
Than what you've got planned, carry a cup in your hand
Look around, leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
Hang onto your hopes, my friend
That's an easy thing to say but if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend that you can build them again
Look around, grass is high
Fields are ripe, it's the springtime of my life
Seasons change with their scenery
Weaving time in a tapestry
Won't you stop and remember me
Look around, leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
Look around, leaves are brown
There's a patch of snow on the ground
Look around, leaves are brown
There's a patch of snow on the ground
Look around, leaves are brown
There's a patch of snow on the ground

You're Still A Young Man
You're Still A Young Man
Composer(s): Emilio Castillo; Stephen Kupka
Performer(s): Tower Of Power;
Bloodstone; Jay Perez
You're still a young man, baby
Whoo-ooh, don't waste your time
You're still a young man, baby
Whoo-ooh, don't waste your time
Down on my knees
heart in hand
I was accused of being too young
but I'm not so young
Can't you understand
that I think like a man?
You're still a young man, baby
Whoo-ooh, don't waste your time
You're still a young man, baby
Whoo-ooh, don't waste your time
Back once again
begging you please
Darling, think twice about me
'cause I'm not so bad
I could make you happy
I'm not a mad lad
(You're too young to love)
If you and I could be together
(You're too young to love)
I'd get to you through any weather
(You're too young to love)
I love you and I love you only
(You're too young to love)
I'd never leave you lonely
You're too young, whoo-ooh,
don't waste your time
The damage is done
you'll see that you're wrong
You'll wake up wondering
just how well I've done
Well, I've done all right
Yes, there are some girls
but I'd drop them on sight
Just for you
because I love you
You're still a young man, baby
Whoo-ooh, don't waste your time...

A Hard Way To Go
A Hard Way To Go
Composer(s): Chris Youlden
First release by: Savoy Brown - 1970
Covered by: Tim Weisberg - 1971; Jake E. Lee - 2005
Ain't got time for doubts or fears
Ain't got time for shallow tears
Ain't got time to bare my soul
Because I still got a hard way to go
Said that you got a losing hand
Ain't no point in you raising sand
Ain't got time to bare your soul
Because I still got a hard way to go
And it's a crying shame
That you can't lay the blame
On anybody else but yourself
Wish that you had my sympathy
You ain't got no hold on me
And my heart is getting cold
And I still got a hard way to go
And it's a crying shame
That you can't lay the blame
On anybody else but yourself
And I still got a hard way to go

You're Some Pretty Doll
Composer(s): Clarence Williams
You're so pretty, oh! so pretty
You're some pretty doll
You've got the kind of eyes that seem to talk
They make me get so nervous that I have to walk
Oh! I love you, how I love you
More and more each day
You've got some smile, you're pretty too
And I've a million dollars that I'll spend on you
'Cause you're so pretty
Oh! so pretty
You're some pretty doll
Now listen Dolly, come over here
There's something I must whisper in your ear
You've got me hanging 'round you like a child
It seems as if you're goin' to drive me wild
These words I tell you are really true
And what I say I'll surely do
Oh! you're cute and handsome, I can't help but fall
You're just a perfect Doll
Your baby ways and your loving smile
It sets my heart jumping all the while
Those charming little curls and dimples too
They make me know that it is you, just you
I wonder if your dear heart is mine
If so, it is a joy divine
Oh! won't you tell me and put my heart at ease
Oh! for a loving squeeze
You're so pretty, oh! so pretty
You're some pretty doll
You've got the kind of eyes that seem to talk
They make me get so nervous that I have to walk
Oh! I love you, how I love you,
More and more each day
You've got some smile, you're pretty too
And I've a million dollars that I'll spend on you
'Cause you're so pretty
Oh! so pretty
You're some pretty doll

Ive got a million dollars that I'll spend on you
'Cause you're so pretty, oh! o pretty

When I was just a blossom on my family tree
But when I got around to datin' my first chick
This is what she said, an' did she spread it thick...
Hey! You're ugly, oh! so ugly
You're some ugly chile
The clothes you wear are not in style
You look like an ape every time you smile
How I hate you, you alligator bait, you
Why don't you lay down and die
How I hate you, you alligator bait, you
An' here's the reason why...
You're knock kneed, pigeon toed, box ankled
You're big foot, barefoot slue footed too
How'd they ever get a pair of shoes on you
Your short and squatty, just nobody
You're some Ugly Chile
What a joke on your family when along comes you
You're dippy, dappy, hey! slap happy
You're some Ugly Chile!

A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall
A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
First release by: Bob Dylan - 1963
Covered by multiple other artists
Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways
I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin'
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin'
I saw a white ladder all covered with water
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin'
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin'
Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin'
Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin'
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
I met a young child beside a dead pony
I met a white man who walked a black dog
I met a young woman whose body was burning
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow
I met one man who was wounded in love
I met another man who was wounded with hatred
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one?
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin'
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
Where the executioner's face is always well hidden
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten
Where black is the color, where none is the number
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin'
But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
