Adios Amor


Adios Amor
Composer(s): Jacques Plante - Claude Carrère
Performer(s): Sheila



Je ressens de l'amour pour toi
Et pourtant je n'ai pas le droit
D'imaginer d'être un jour à toi
Puisque tu portes une alliance au doigts

Adios amor je m'en vais ce soir
Car il vaut mieux ne plus se revoir
Ne cherche pas à me retenir
Adios amor laisse moi partir

Je ne suis pas aventureuse
Mais ne pourrais jamais être heureuse
Avec l'idée que par ma faute
J'aurais fait le malheur d'une autre

Adios amor je m'en vais ce soir
Car il vaut mieux ne plus se revoir
Ne cherche pas à me retenir
Adios amor laisse moi partir

Je préfère abandonner
Les rêves que nous avions faits
Je sais bien que j'ai raison
Malgré toute la peine que j'ai

Adios amor je m'en vais ce soir
Car il vaut mieux ne plus se revoir
Ne cherche pas à me retenir
Adios amor laisse moi partir

Ne cherche pas à me retenir
Adios amor laisse moi partir

What A Wonderful World (Louis Armstrong)


What A Wonderful World
French & Spanish Titles:
Quel Monde Merveilleux; Que Mundo Maravilloso
Composer(s): George David Weiss; Bob Thiele
Performer(s): Louis Armstrong



I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people goin' by
I see friends shakin' hands, sayin' "How do you do?"
They're really sayin', "I love you"

I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world

Adios Amigo


Adios Amigo
Composer(s): Ralph Freed - Jerry Livingston
Performer(s): Jim Reeves



Adios amigo, adios my friend
The road we have travelled has come to an end
When two love the same love, one love has to lose
And it's you who she longs for, it's you she will choose

Adios compadre, what must be must be
Remember to name one muchacho for me
I ride to the Rio, where my life I must spend
Adios amigo, adios my friend

Adios compadre, let us shed no tears
May all your mañanas bring joy through the years
Away from these memories, my life I must spend
Adios amigo, adios my friend

What A Wonderful Life
Composer(s): Sid Wayne; Jay Livingston
Performer(s): Elvis Presley



What a wonderful life
This life I'm livin'
What a wonderful life
Livin' the life of ease, oh-ho-oh
Well, I got no job to worry me
No big bad boss to hurry me
It's a wonderful life
Life's good to me

It's a wonderful road
This road I'm travelin'

But one thing that I know for sure
It's a wonderful life
Life's good to me

I don't know where I'm goin'
Don't care where I'm goin'
Like the four winds a-blowin' I go on
Laughin' the day away, lovin' the night away
Till the moon is gone

It's a wonderful life
This life I'm livin'
What a wonderful life
Livin' the life I love, oh yeah
Well I've got neighbors, I've got friends
Just anywhere the rainbow ends
It's a wonderful life
Life's good to me

I don't know where I'm goin'
Don't care where I'm goin'
Like the four winds a-blowin' I go on
Laughin' the day away, lovin' the night away
Till the moon is gone

It's a wonderful life
This life I'm livin'
What a wonderful life
Livin' the life I love, oh yeah
Well I've got neighbors, I've got friends
Just about anywhere the rainbow ends
It's a wonderful life
Life's good to me

It's a wonderful life
Life's good to me
Oh, it's a crazy life
Life's good to me

Adieu Mon Pays


Adieu Mon Pays
Composer(s): Enrico Macias
Performer(s): Enrico Macias



J'ai quitté mon pays
J'ai quitté ma maison
Ma vie ma triste vie
Se traîne sans raison

J'ai quitté mon soleil
J'ai quitté ma mer bleue
Leurs souvenirs se réveillent
Bien après mon adieu

Soleil ! soleil de mon pays perdu
Des villes blanches que j'aimais
Des filles que j'ai jadis connues

J'ai quitté une amie
Je vois encore ses yeux
Ses yeux mouillés de pluie
De la pluie de l'adieu

Je revois son sourire
Si près de mon visage
Il faisait resplendir
Les soirs de mon village

Mais, du bord du bateau
Qui m'éloignait du quai
Une chaîne dans l'eau
A claqué comme un fouet

J'ai longtemps regardé
Ses yeux bleus qui fuyaient aient aient
La mer les a noyés dans le flot
Du regret et et et et

What A Town


What A Town
Composer(s): Rick Danko; Bobby Charles
Performer(s): David Bromberg;
Rick Danko; Tompall Glaser



What a town what a town what a town
I fall in love every time I turn around

I looked to my left, looked to my right
And what do I see?
All the young girls dreaming, old ones scheming
Call girls calling after me

What a town what a town what a town
I fall in love every time I turn around

The music was playin, the people were swaying
Keepin the beat
In the alley, where they all rally
On them old cobblestone streets

What a town what a town what a town
I fall in love every time I turn around

Now I'm going home, I'm all alone
I'm putting my day to an end
So many places, so many faces
All of these people my friends

What a town what a town what a town
I fall in love every time I turn around...

Adieu, Miss Molly


Adieu, Miss Molly ((aka C'est Fini Miss Molly (Johnny Hallyday) - 1964; Jolie Miss Molly (Eddy Mitchell) - 1963)) ((Adapted from: Good Golly Miss Molly (Little Richard) - 1958)) ((Danish Version: Goe, Gamle Fru Olsen (Rock Nalle & The Flames) - 1977)) Composer(s): Robert Alexander Blackwell - John Marascalco - Michel Mallory Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday - 1975



C'est fini Miss Molly
Vous m'avez épuisé
C'est fini Miss Molly
Oui tous vos baisers mon saoulé
Ça doit bien faire une semaine
Que l'on ne s'est pas rhabillé

Pour vivre j'ai besoin d'autre chose que de vous faire l'amour
Au sinon je vais mourir avant d'avoir revu le jour

C'est fini Miss Molly
Je perds par abandon
Si l'amour devient une course
Avec vous, c'est un marathon

J'étais venu pour réparer votre télévision
Et je me retrouve au lit sur un volcan en éruption

C'est fini Miss Molly
Vous allez me tuer
J'ai besoin d'un an de vacances
Et je vais changer de métier

C'est fini Miss Molly
Ou j'appelle au secours
C'est fini Miss Molly
Ou je saute dans la cour
Il faut me rendre mes affaires
Cachées depuis le premier jour

J'étais venu ici pour réparer votre télévision
Et je me retrouve au lit sur un volcan en éruption

C'est fini Miss Molly
Vous allez me tuer
J'ai besoin d'un an de vacances
Et je vais changer de métier

What A Little Moonlight Can Do


What A Little Moonlight Can Do
Composer(s): Harry Woods
Performer(s): Billie Holiday;
and various other artists



Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do
Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do to you
You're in love
Your heart's fluttering all day long
You only stutter 'cause your poor tongue
Just will not utter the words
I love you
Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do
Wait a while
Till a little moonbeam comes peeping through
He'll get bored
You can't resist him
All you'll say
When you have kissed him is
Ooh, ooh, ooh

What a little moonlight can do
Ooh, ooh, ooh

What A Good Man He Is


What A Good Man He Is
Composer(s): Smokey Robinson; Al Cleveland
Performer(s): Tammi Terrell



Say, that man of mine, he's as sturdy as a rock
Made out of real good stuff, he's made out of real good stock
With the big strong arms and hands that he has
He knows how to handle me like I was made out of glass
Pretty good lovin' (pretty good lovin')
Pretty good kissin' (pretty good kissin')
It seems so unreal that this man of steel
Could possess such a tender feel
Let this girl tell the world
Oh what a good man he is (oh what a good man he is)
Wo wo what a good man he is (oh what a good he is)

He makes the fact that he loves me clearly understood
He makes me feel so happy, girl, that he makes me feel so good
He knows that I need lovin' and I don't need neglect
So he comes around me constantly to make sure that I get
Pretty good lovin' (pretty good lovin')
Pretty good kissin' (pretty good kissin')
Nothing know I that he doesn't try
To keep my hopes up high
Let this girl tell the world
Oh what a good man he is (oh what a good man he is)
Wanna tell the world about my baby (oh what a good man he is)

All right
(Yes indeed, it's him I need)
(Yes indeed, it's him I need)

I wanna say that man of mine is determined as can be
To make a good life for him and make a good life for me
Works every day grindin' the ax
But I know what to give him when it's time to relax
Pretty good lovin' (pretty good lovin')
Pretty good kissin' (pretty good kissin')
Days that he's mean I've seldom seen
They're far and few between
Let this girl tell the world
Oh what a good man he is (oh what a good man he is)
Wanna tell the world about my baby (oh what a good man he is)

Wo wo wo wo wo what a good man he is (oh what a good man he is)
Got a whole lot of other (oh what a good man he is)
Don't worry I'll love another, no (oh what a good man he is)
Let this girl tell the world

Adieu Créature


Adieu Créature
Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Performer(s): Serge Gainsbourg



Adieu, créature
J'm'en vais dans la nature
Et ne m'en veuille pas
Tu ne seras jamais pour moi
Qu'une jolie créature
Perdue dans la nature
Aimant un peu, beaucoup
Trop, pas assez ou pas du tout
Je suis là pour je n'sais qui pour je n'sais quoi
Tu m'as pris pour je n'sais quoi pour je n'sais qui
Et moi je n'sais ce qui m'a pris ce qui m'a pris
De venir ici
Adieu, créature
J'm'en vais dans la nature
Et ne m'en veuille pas,
Une de ces nuits on s'reverra
Adieu, créature
Adieu, créature
On se reverra
Quelque part dans la nature!

What A Fool Believes


What A Fool Believes
Composer(s): Michael McDonald; Kenny Loggins
Performer(s): The Doobie Brothers



He came from somewhere back in here long ago
the sentimental fool don't see
trying hard to recreate what had yet to be created
once in her life

She musters a smilefor his nostalgic tale
never coming near what he wanted to say
only to realize
it never really was

She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
as he rises to her apology
anybody else would surely know
he's watching her go

But what a fool believes he sees
no wise man has the power
to reason away what seems to be
is always better than nothing
and nothing at all...

keeps sending him...

Somewhere back in her long ago
where he can still believe there's a place in her life
someday, someway
she will return

She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
as he rises to her apology
anybody else would surely know
he's watching her go

But what a fool believes he sees
no wise man has the power
to reason away what seems to be
is always better than nothing
and nothing at all...

Adieu To My Island


Adieu To My Island
Composer(s): Travis Edmonson
Performer(s): The Kingston Trio



I must bid adieu to my island
Leave the nights by the sea
My heart is heavy inside me
Bow down just like a palm tree
The nights may be warm in Hawaii
and the sun may shine on Rome
But the steel bands are playing in Trinidad
and my heart tells me that's home

I must bid adieu to my island
Leave the nights by the sea
My heart is heavy inside me
Bow down just like a palm tree
The nights may be warm in Hawaii
and the sun may shine on Rome
But the steel bands are playing in Trinidad
and my heart tells me that's home

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

The sun's comin' out of the ocean, now
and in an hour I'll be gone.
Watch from the mountain when the ships sail in
for the one that I'll be on.

I must bid adieu to my island
Leave the nights by the sea
My heart is heavy inside me
Bow down just like a palm tree
The nights may be warm in Hawaii
and the sun may shine on Rome
But the steel bands are playing in Trinidad
and my heart tells me that's home

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

What A Diff'rence A Day Made


What A Diff'rence A Day Made
Adapted from: Cuando Vuelva A Tu Lado - 1924
Composer(s): Stanley Adams; María Grever
Performer(s): The Dorsey Brothers Orch. (Vocal: Bob Crosby) - 1934
Covered by multiple other artists



What a diff'rence a day made
Twenty four little hours
Brought the sun and the flowers
where there used to be rain

My yesterday was blue dear
Today I'm part of you dear
My lonely nights are through dear
Since you said you were mine

What a diff'rence a day made
There's a rainbow before me

Skies above can't be stormy
Since that moment of bliss
That thrilling kiss
It's heaven when you
Find romance on menu

What a diff'rence a day made
And the diff'rence is you

Adieu Paris


Adieu Paris
Composer(s): André Hornez - Sauvage - Senamaud
Performer(s): Berthe Sylva



Adieu Paris, je me retire à la campagne
L'ennui me gagne, assez d'champagne
J'en ai soupé d'aller souper avec les poules
Et de rentrer comme si l'pavé faisait d'la houle
Adieu Paris, car j'en ai par-dessus la tête
Faire la fête, oh, qu'ça m'embête
Je vais me mettre au vert, vivre comme les bêtes
Me coucher tôt et ne plus boire que d'l'eau
Oui mais
Avant que je te quitte
Que je vive en ermite
Tout là-bas loin de toi
Oh! Ville des merveilles
Encore une fois
Vidons une bouteille
Et puis deux, et puis trois
Oh! La drôle de chose
Lorsqu'un bouchon explose
Je vois la vie en rose
Profitons-en, garçon!
Apportez-moi la carte
On doit, sans façon
Faire avant que je parte
Un bon gueuleton
Adieu Paris, ville de rêve et d'épouvante
Ville méchante, ville charmante
Tu fais payer bien cher le bonheur que tu donnes
Mais en mourant, on t'aime tant qu'on te pardonne
Adieu Paris, adieu Montmartre et Notre-dame
Et jolie femme, et vilain drame
Toute l'éternité nous te donnons nos âmes
Leur paradis, c'est le ciel de Paris!

What A Bringdown


What A Bringdown
Composer(s): Ginger Baker
Performer(s): Cream



Dainties in a jam-jar, parson's colour in the sky
Water in a fountain doesn't get me very high
Moby Dick and Albert making out with Captain Bligh
So you know what you know in your head
Will you, won't you, do you, don't you know when a head's dead?
What a bringdown!

Winter leader Lou is grownin' 'Ampsteads in the North
Betty B's been wearin' daisies since the twenty-fourth
Wears a gunner when there's one more coming forth
And you know what you know in your head
Will you, won't you, do you, don't you wanna go to bed?
What a bringdown!

There's a tea-leaf about in the family
Full of nothin' their fairy tale
There's a tea-leaf a-floatin' now for Rosalie
They'll believe in ding-dong bell

Take a butchers at the dodginesses of old Bill
Aristotle's orchestra are living on the pill
One of them gets very very prickly when he's ill
And you know what you know in your head
Will you, won't you, do you, don't you wanna make more bread?
What a bringdown!

Adieu Monsieur Le Professeur
Composer(s): Hugues Aufray - Jean-Pierre Bourtayre - Vline Buggy
Performer(s): Hugues Aufray



Les enfants font une farandole
Et le vieux maître est tout ému
Demain il va quitter sa chère école
Sur cette estrade il ne montera plus

Adieu monsieur le professeur
On ne vous oubliera jamais
Et tout au fond de notre coeur
Ces mots sont écrits à la craie
Nous vous offrons ces quelques fleurs
Pour dire combien on vous aimait
On ne vous oubliera jamais
Adieu monsieur le professeur

Une larme est tombée sur sa main
Seul dans la classe il s'est assis
Il en a vu défiler des gamins
Qu'il a aimés tout au long de sa vie

Adieu monsieur le professeur
On ne vous oubliera jamais
Et tout au fond de notre coeur
Ces mots sont écrits à la craie
Nous vous offrons ces quelques fleurs
Pour dire combien on vous aimait
On ne vous oubliera jamais
Adieu monsieur le professeur

De beaux prix sont remis aux élèves
Tous les discours sont terminés
Sous le préau l'assistance se lève
Une dernière fois les enfants vont chanter

Adieu monsieur le professeur
On ne vous oubliera jamais
Et tout au fond de notre coeur
Ces mots sont écrits à la craie
Nous vous offrons ces quelques fleurs
Pour dire combien on vous aimait
On ne vous oubliera jamais
Adieu monsieur le professeur

Adieu monsieur le professeur
On ne vous oubliera jamais

Et tout au fond de notre coeur...

What A Beautiful Day


What A Beautiful Day
Composer(s): Lucio Dalla; Leo Zeuss
Performer(s): Lucio Dalla



What a beautiful day
l'aria fresca del mattino
ti fa sentire un bambino
o no?
What a beautiful day
brioche e cappuccino
e quell'odore cos'è?
qualcuno fa un caffè
What a beautiful day
saluto il mio vicino
la gente compra i bignè
saluta anche me
la corsa dei ciclisti
due preti su una Panda
ah sì ... è domenica
ma prego, passi lei
parenti in visita
il lunapark sul porto
con la sua musica
non puoi che dire
What a beautiful day
Ma il mondo è una palla
è una palla di vetro
se ci guardi dentro
è come un grande presepio
e lì ci siam noi
statue di vetro
ombre nel sole
sguardi, gesti, respiri, parole
ma quando uno si infiamma
e ha come un chiodo nel cuore
questo è solo l'amore
che ti fa dire
What a beautiful day
What a beautiful day
È avere l'aria addosso
What a beautiful day
è non dire mai non posso
esser quello che sei
non rinunciare mai
e tra la terra e il cielo
come una canna al vento
restare lì leggero
guardare le rondini in volo
padrone di niente, ma padrone di te
Perchè la vita è una palla
se giochi rimbalza
tra il cielo e la terra
io, io ancora non so
dov'è che è il mio posto
dove sono domani
se parti o rimani
se ancora, se sei ancora con me
e non tengo il conto
dei giorni buttati
non mi volto indietro
prendo tutto, tutto quello che c'è
perchè se uno si infiamma
e ha come un chiodo nel cuore
questo è solo l'amore
che ti fa dire
What a beautiful day
What a beautiful day
