Walk A Mile In My Shoes
Walk A Mile In My Shoes
Composer(s): Joe South
Performer(s): Elvis Presley
If I could be you, if you could be me
For just one hour, if we could find a way
To get inside each other's mind
If you could see you through my eyes
Instead your own ego I believe you'd be
I believe you'd be surprised to see
That you've been blind
Walk a mile in my shoes
just walk a mile in my shoes
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Then walk a mile in my shoes
Now if we spend the day
Throwin' stones at one another
'Cause I don't think, 'cause I don't think
Or wear my hair the same way you do
Well, I may be common people
But I'm your brother
And when you strike out
You're tryin' to hurt me
It's hurtin' you, Lord how mercy
Now there are people on reservations
And out in the ghetto
And brother there, but, for the grace of God
Go you and I,
If I only had wings of a little angel
Don't you know, I'd fly
To the top of a mountain
And then I'd cry, cry, cry

A Song For You (Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris)
A Song For You
Composer(s): Gram Parsons
First release by: Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris - 1972
Oh my land is like a wild goose
Wanders all around everywhere
Trembles and it shakes till every tree is loose
It rolls the meadows and it rolls the nails
So take me down to your dance floor
And I wont mind the people when they stare
Paint a different color on your front door
And tomorrow we will still be there
Jesus built a ship to sing a song to
It sails the rivers and it sails the tide
Some of my friends don't know who they belong to
Some can't get a single thing to work inside
So take me down to your dance floor
And I wont mind the people when they stare
Paint a different color on your front door
And tomorrow we will still be there
I loved you every day and now I'm leaving
And I can see the sorrow in your eyes
I hope you know a lot more than you're believing
Just so the sun don't hurt ou when you cry
So take me down to your dance floor
And I wont mind the people when they stare
Paint a different color on your front door
And tomorrow we will still be there
And tomorrow we will still be there

Wako-Shaman
Wako-Shaman
Composer(s): Miguel Bosé; Ross Cullum;
Sandy McLelland; Andy Ross; Toulson-Clarke
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
Érase una vez un sabio que
Dijo ser profeta y guardar
El Secreto Poder
Que quisieras tener
Era el Gran Shaman
Era un mago de la tribu Babel
Tigre-halcón en otra vida fue
Y era el Hombre- sol
Que entre el Bien y el mal
Se hizo con la Verdad
Wako Shaman
Háblame de otro mañana
Wako Shaman
Nueva Era cambiare
Wako Shaman
Todo el oro de mi alma
Leyó el Canto de los Pájaros
Habló de algún camino Kármico...
"Quién no quiera oír
no se ha de salvar
en la Hora Final...
Esta tierra así tan única
que es dominio de los Bárbaros
antes o después
se tendrá que romper
y no va a tardar..."
Por el Tótem Sagrado
Mi promesa cumpliré
A otros tiempos antiguos
Viajaría, volvería
Y con al Ciencia aprendida
Madre Tierra déjame
Que te cuide como sé
Que te quiera como sé...
Y ante mil Burdos Babilónicos
Como vino, desapareció
Y el planeta tembló...
Un gran fuego arrasó
Con quien no quiso escuchar...

A Song For While I'm Away
A Song For While I'm Away
Composer(s): Phil Lynott
Performer(s): Thin Lizzy
These words I wrote, play and sing to you
Do not convey the love I brought and bring to you
For this is a song for while I'm away
To say all the things I'd love to say
You are my life, my everything, you're all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
You're all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say
Now I'm headed for the border
You see this song it ends right at the start
I swore when I was younger
No one would win my heart
And far away hills look greener still
But soon they'll all slip away
It's then I'll be returning
And I'll be coming home to stay
You are my life, my everything, you're all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
You're all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say

Wake Up, Irene
Wake Up, Irene
Composer(s): Weldon Allard; Johnny Hathcock
Performer(s): Hank Thompson;
The Maddox Brothers & Rose
For months and months and months around the country
Everybody sang Irene goodnight
But she wouldn't go to bed no matter what they said
Though everybody tried with all their might
She stayed awake while steel guitars were a going
In every honky-tonk she could be seen
But she finally went to bed and covered up her head
And now there's not a thing can wake Irene
Wake up Irene you've slept too long
Wake up Irene it's time to move along
Wake up Irene and pay for your bed
Wake up Irene or folks will think your dead
Lot's of guitar pickers by the dozen
Sang goodnight Irene all night and day
And even Crosby too with his bobobabobedo
Tried to get Irene to hit the hay
Well I guess they finally sang her off to slumber
They must have tried a million times or more
But oh my aching back when she finally hit the sack
Man you ought to hear that women snore
Wake up Irene you've slept too long
Wake up Irene it's time to move along
Wake up Irene and pay for your bed
Wake up Irene or folks will think your dead

chanson, Suzanne
I'm just a man
please let me
sing my song
it's been ten years
since I met you
and I first held your hand
my Suzanne
that summer night
we dreamed of
days to come
I held you there
beside me
we carved the wishing tree
and then
we played the part of lovers
on that summer night
we played the part of lovers
you gave all your love and you made it seem right
you made me a man oh so young in my life
one simple verse
like the words in a play
you spoke your lines
and I knew I must stay
oh I must stay
now we are free
and we are growing old
the wishing tree still stands there
and shades our memories
of when
we played the part of lovers
on that summer night
we played the part of lovers
you gave all your love and you made it seem right
you made me a man oh so young in my life

Wake Up Sunshine
Wake Up Sunshine
Composer(s): Robert Lamm
Performer(s): Chicago
Wake up sunshine
Open up your sleepy eyes for me
Can't have you hidin'
I've been waiting all the night
People waiting for the light
Sunshine, sunshine
Wake up sunshine
Let me feel your warm sunlight on me
Can't have you hidin'
Night was long and night was cold
But today we're one day older
Sunshine, you make my life sunshine
You know I'm talkin' to you
I know you're knowin' it too
So just stop hidin' your face
Just open your eyes
Just smile your smile
I'm talkin' to you
Wake up sunshine
Ooh, it's good to have you here with me
Can't have you hidin'
Can't imagine what I'd do
But feel too lonely without you
Sunshine, sunshine
You got to wake up girl
And face the day ahead

Song For Me
Song For Me
Composer(s): Dave Cousins - Brian Willoughby
Performer(s): Dave Cousins
Once I was a minstrel boy, I sang just like a bird
I used to trade in memories, I relived every word
But the galleries are empty now, the crowds have all gone home
I locked away my songs, I sang them on my own
I sang them on my own
Now those who walk behind me have heard it all before
They knew the many reasons I screwed them like some whore
Like jumped-up jacks of all trades they walked with fettered legs
And wondered where the tent went when I pulled out all the pegs
I pulled out all the pegs
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
The peaceful queen of platitudes sat resting on his throne
His laurel wreath was slipping as he retrieved his buried bone
Ah but I had got there sooner, I had chewed away the fat
While he slept in the gutter, I slept on the mat
I slept on the mat
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me

Wake Up Little Susie
Composer(s): Boudleaux Bryant; Felice Bryant
Performer(s): The Everly Brothers
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
We’ve both been sound asleep, wake up, little Susie, and weep
The movie’s over, it’s four o’clock, and we’re in trouble deep
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie, well
What are we gonna tell your mama
What are we gonna tell your pa
What are we gonna tell our friends when they say 'ooh-la-la'
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie, well
I told your mama that you’d be in by ten
Well Susie baby looks like we goofed again
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie, we got to go home
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
The movie wasn’t so hot, it didn’t have much of a plot
We fell asleep, our goose is cooked, our reputation is shot
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie, well
What are we gonna tell your mama
What are we gonna tell your pa
What are we gonna tell our friends when they say 'ooh-la-la'
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie

Song For Jeffrey
Song For Jeffrey
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull; Blodwyn Pig
Gonna lose my way tomorrow
Gonna give away my car
I’d take you along with me
But you would not go so far
Don’t see what I do not want to see
You don’t hear what I don’t say
Won’t be what I don’t want to be
I continue in my way
Don’t see, see, see where I’m goin’
Don’t see, see, see where I’m goin’
Don’t see, see, see where I’m goin’ to
I don’t want to
Everyday I see the mornin’ come on in the same old way
I tell myself tomorrow brings me things I would not dream today

Wake Up Everybody
Wake Up Everybody
Composer(s): Victor Carstarphen; Gene McFadden
John Whitehead
Performer(s): Harold Melvin
Wake up everybody no more sleepin' in bed
No more backward thinkin' time for thinkin' ahead
The world has changed so very much
From what it used to be so
there is so much hatred war an' poverty
Wake up all the teachers time to teach a new way
Maybe then they'll listen to whatcha have to say
Cause they're the ones who's coming up and the world is in their hands
when you teach the children teach 'em the very best you can
Chorus
The world won't get no better if we just let it be
The world won't get no better we gotta change it yeah, just you and me
Wake up all the doctors make the ol' people well
They're the ones who suffer an' who catch all the hell
But they don't have so very long before the Judgement Day
So won'tcha make them happy before they pass away
Wake up all the builders time to build a new land
I know we can do it if we all lend a hand
The only thing we have to do is put it in our mind
Surely things will work out they do it every time
Repeat Chorus

A Song For Europe
A Song For Europe
Composer(s): Andy Mackay - Bryan Ferry
First release by: Roxy Music - 1973
Covered by: Michaela Melián - 2004
Here as I sit
At this empty cafe
Thinking of you
I remember
All those moments
Lost in wonder
That we´ll never
Find again
Though the world
Is my oyster
It´s only a shell
Full of memories
And here by the Seine
Notre-Dame casts
A long lonely shadow
Now - only sorrow
No tomorrow
There´s no today for us
Nothing is there
For us to share
But yesterday
These cities may change
But there always remains
My obsession
Through silken waters
My gondola glides
And the bridge - it sighs ...
I remember
All those moments
Lost in wonder
That we´ll never
Find again
There´s no more time for us
Nothing is there
For us to share
But yesterdays
Ecce momenta
Illa mirabilia
Quae captabit
In aeternum
Memor
Modo dolores
Sunt in dies
Non est reliquum
Vero tantum
Comminicamus
Perdita
Tous ces moments
Perdus dans l`enchantement
Qui ne reviendront
Jamais
Pas d´aujourd´hui pour nous
Pour nous il n´y a rien
À partager
Sauf le passé

Wake Up Dolores
Wake Up Dolores
Composer(s): David Hidalgo; Louie Pérez
Performer(s): Los Lobos; Latin Playboys
My legs are tired
My face feels hot
Wake up Dolores
Please try to walk
Oh sacred night
Our lght is dim
We have so far to go
The stones are hard
On this endless road
Oh sacred night
On quetzal plumes
Of dying suns
And purple moons
Oh sacred night
As an eagle soars
Our spirits fly
To our gentle rest
Under loving sky
Oh sacred night
On quetzal plumes
Of dying suns
And purple moons
Oh sacred night
Ocuiltin
Moyacatla
Otlica
Auh in caltech

A Song
A Song
Performer(s): Vangelis
I would like to write a song
That is so vibrant and so intimate
That the earth would adopt it
As if it had sprung like the stream
From the land's memory
As if no one had written it but life itself
And my song would travel along
From bird to wing, to tree
To breeze to heart to breath to song
Because a song belongs to everyone
Like the spring

Wake Up And Make Love With Me
Wake Up And Make Love With Me
Composer(s): Ian Dury; Chas Jankel
Performer(s): Ian Dury; Los Fabulosos Cadillacs;
Sinéad O'Connor; Renauld
I come awake
With a gift for womankind
You're still asleep
But the gift don't seem to mind
Rise on this occasion
Halfway up your back
Sliding down your body
Touching your behind
You look so self-possessed
I won't disturb your rest
It's lovely when you're sleeping
But wide awake is best
Wake up and make love with me
Wake up and make love
Wake up and make love with me
I don't want to make you
I'll let the fancy take you
And you'll wake up and make love
You come awake
In a horny morning mood
And have a proper wriggle
In the naughty naked nude
Roll against my body
Get me where you want me
What happens next is private
It's also very rude
I'll go and get the post
And make some tea and toast
You have a lover's sleep, love
It's me that needs it most
Wake up and make love with me
Wake up and make love
Wake up and make love with me
I don't want to make you
I'll let the fancy take you
And you'll wake up and make love
Wake up and make love with me
Wake up and make love
Wake up and make love with me
Wake up and make love
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up

À Mon Cou, À Ses Genoux
À Mon Cou, À Ses Genoux
Composer(s): Julien Clerc - Jean-Loup Dabadie - Craig Karp
Performer(s): Julien Clerc
J'aim' pas ses manières
Ni son caractère
J'aim' pas ses colères
J'aim' pas ce qu'ell' danse
J'aim' pas ce qu'ell' pense
J'aim' pas sa violence
Je suis fou qu'est-ce que j'fous´
À son cou à ses g'noux-ou-oux
J'suis jaloux comme un loup
Je n'suis plus rien du tou-ou-out
J'bois pas ce qu'elle boit
J'crois pas ce qu'elle croit
J'vois pas ce qu'ell'voit
J'aim' pas qu'ell' me siffle
J'aim' pas quand ell' griffe
J'aim' pas qu'ell' me sniffe
Je suis fou qu'est-c'que j'fous
À son cou à ses g'noux-ou-oux
J'suis jaloux comm'un loup
Je n'suis plus rien du tout
Je m'endors sur son cœur
Je m'réveill' sur son corps
Comme sur un trésor
Comm'si c'était de l'o-o-or
O-o-o-or
O-o-or
J'aim' pas ses copains
J'aim' pas ses bouquins
J'ai mordu son chien
J'aim' pas ses discours
Ni ses calembours
C'est pas mon humour
J'aim' pas ses chansons
J'aim' pas ses façons
Ses jeux de garçon
J'aim' pas ses coutumes
J'aim' pas ses costumes
J'aim' pas comme ell' fume
J'aim' pas ses trois sœurs
J'aim' pas son coiffeur
Ni ses jeans à fleurs
J'aim' pas ce qu'ell' danse...
J'bois pas ce qu'ell' boit...
J'aim' pas qu'ell' me siffle...

To the neighbors right away
When you are close to me
And my heart is dancing with delight

Heaven in my arms tonight
Shout it from the highest steeple
Ring the bells the whole night through
Wake the town and tell the people

Shout it from the highest steeple
Ring the bells the whole night through

Heaven in my arms tonight
Shout it from the highest steeple
Ring the bells the whole night through

A Solid Bond In Your Heart
A Solid Bond In Your Heart
Composer(s): Paul Weller
Performer(s): The Jam; The Style Council
Feel is a word I can't explain
At least not in words that are plain
Make it easy to express
But I'll try to do my best
To hit you where it counts
I just want to build up
A solid bond in your heart
(Yeah) A solid bond in your heart (Aha)
I'm fuelled by the idea
That this world was made to share
But it never seems to work out
And all we seem to share
Is doubt and misery
Please let me try to build
A solid bond in your heart heart
Aah, I just want to build up
A solid bond in your heart heart
It's what's missing from this life
And the trust you need to ignite
Any dream worth holding dear
When that dream is so near
You gotta try and try to get it back
Push it to the limit and build
A solid bond in your heart
