When A Woman Loves A Man (Dinah Washington)
When A Woman Loves A Man
Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Bernard Hanighen; Gordon Jenkins
Performer(s): Dinah Washington;
and various other artists
Maybe he's not much
Just another man, doing what he can
But what does she care when a woman loves a man?
She'll just string along
All through thick and thin till his ship comes in
That's how it goes when a woman loves a man
She'll be the first one to praise him when he's goin' strong
The last one to blame him when ev'rything is wrong
It's such a one-sided game that they play
But women are funny that way
Tell her she's a fool
She'll say yes, I know, but I love him so
That's how it goes when a woman loves a man

Your love is rain
My heart the flower
I need your love or I will die
My very life is your power
Will I wither and fade or bloom to the sky
Aqua de Beber
Give the flower water to drink
Aqua de Beber
Give the flower water to drink
The rain can fall
On distant deserts
The rain can fall upon the sea
The rain can fall upon the flower
Since the rain has to fall let it fall on me
Aqua de Beber
Give the flower water to drink
Aqua de Beber
Give the flower water to drink

When A Soldier Knocks And Finds Nobody Home
When A Soldier Knocks And Finds Nobody Home
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb; Moon Mullican; Lou Wayne
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
I’m alone with all my sorrow
It’s so hard to face tomorrow
'Cause I knocked and no one met me at the door
I have asked the next door neighbor
What you’ve packed and went away for
But they only say; You don’t live here no more
When I sailed across the blue
I thought I could count on you
But I’ve come back home sweetheart to find you gone
It’s a shame you couldn’t be here
What a sorry sight to see here
When A Soldier Knocks And Finds Nobody Home
Ah do it pretty Billy
When I sailed across the blue
I thought I could count on you
But I’ve come back home sweetheart to find you gone
It’s a shame you couldn’t be here
What a sorry sight to see here

Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
Agua Clara pa beber
de mi mano te daré
Agua Clara pa beber
Fuente Pura que ha escapao
con Arroyo del Edén
van tocaos en el costao...
Agua Pura al río va
se le entrubia la mira
¡qué fatiga en su caudal!
Agua Clara que me envenena
este amor que se me enciende y me quema
Ay! mi corazón
Luna se quiere espejar
yo, clamar mi sed
ni ella se puede mirar
ni yo beber
novia con cola de pez
que inquietante es
turbia y serena a la vez
siento que es...
Agua Clara que me envenena
este amor que se me enciende y me quema
Agua Clara, lluvia de mayo
es un aguamor que me ahoga despacio
Agua Clara que me envenena
Ay! mi corazón
Agua Clara pa beber
de mi mano no podré
darte el agua pa beber
Agua Clara que me envenena
este amor que se me enciende y me quema
Agua Clara me arde en las venas
este amor se va hacia el mar de la pena
Ay! mi corazón

When A Man Loves A Woman
When A Man Loves A Woman
Composer(s): Calvin Lewis; Andrew Wright
Performer(s): Percy Sledge
When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else
He'd change the world for the good thing he's found
If she is bad, he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend if he put her down
When a man loves a woman
He'll spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comforts
And sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way
It ought to be
Well, this man loves you, woman
I gave you everything I have
Tryin' to hold on to your hot blood long
Baby, please don't treat me bad
When a man loves a woman
Down deep in his soul
She can bring him such misery
If she is playin' him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Lovin' eyes can never see
When a man loves a woman
he can do her no wrong
he can never hug
some other girl
Yes, when a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels
'Cause baby, baby, you're
When a man loves a woman....

Agricultural Irish Girl
Agricultural Irish Girl
Composer(s): J.F. Mitchell
Performer(s): Val Doonican
If all the girls in Ireland
Were gathered up together
There's none like my Mary Ann
In every kind of weather
The rain won't wash the powder off her face
She doesn't wear it
And her figure and face are all her own
The truth I must declare it
She's a fine stout lump
Of agricultural Irish girl
Her face is worth a fortune
And her figure is all her own
She can strike that hard you would think
That you were hit by the kick of a mule
But the full of a house of Irish love
Is Mary Ann Malone
She was never e-d-u-cated
She doesn't know her letters
But she's all a lady wants my boys
And better than her betters
She doesn't speak ital-i-an
Or read the sporting papers
But she knows the horse will win the race
She knows the form by jabers
She was only seventeen last year
But still she's growing greatly
I wonder what her form will be
When she fills out completely
You's think your hand was in a vice
The minute that she'd take it
And if there's any cake at hand
Tis Mary Ann will ate it
She's a fine stout lump
Of agricultural Irish girl
Her face is worth a fortune
And her figure is all her own
She can strike that hard you would think
That you were hit by the kick of a mule
But the full of a house of Irish love
Is Mary Ann Malone
For she's a fine stout lump
Of an agricultural Irish girl
Her face is worth a fortune
And her figure is all her
But she can hit that hard....Oooh
You'ld think it the kick of a mule you got
The fill of your arms of Irish love
Is Mary Ann Malone

When A Guitar Plays The Blues
When A Guitar Plays The Blues
Performer(s): Albert Collins
You get the strangest kinda feelin'
that's when the guitar plays the blues
I say, you get the strangest kinda feelin'
that's when a guitar plays the blues
Your body gets the message
and you know, you know, your soul has just got to move
You might even bat your eye
You might even snap or cry
The feelin' you're feelin' within you babe
You know you just can't hide
You're kinda strokin' like that
You're kinda bendin' like this
And it reaches down inside you
And your soul just can't resist
You get the same kinda feelin'
When the guitar plays the blues
Your body sure gets the message
Yes, you know, you know, your soul has just got to move
And when the music is over
And it's time to turn out the lights
You know the blues goes home with ya
Soothes you through the night
You get the strange kinda feelin'
When the guitar plays the blues
Your body gets the message
And you know, you know, you know
Your soul has just got to move

Agora Falando Sério
Agora Falando Sério
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque
Agora falando sério
Eu queria não cantar
A cantiga bonita
Ue se acredita
Que o mal espanta
Dou um chute no lirismo
Um pega no cachorro
E um tiro no sabiá
Dou um fora no violino
Faço a mala e corro
Pra não ver a banda passar
Agora falando sério
Eu queria não mentir
Não queria enganar
Driblar, iludir
Tanto desencanto
E você que está me ouvindo
Quer saber o que está havendo
Com as flores do meu quintal?
O amor-perfeito, traindo
A sempre-viva, morrendo
E a rosa, cheirando mal
Agora falando sério
Preferia não falar
Nada que distraísse
O sono difícil
Como acalanto
Eu quero fazer silêncio
Um silêncio tão doente
Do vizinho reclamar
E chamar polícia e médico
E o síndico do meu prédio
Pedindo pra eu cantar
Agora falando sério
Eu queria não cantar
Falando sério
Agora falando sério
Preferia não falar
Falando sério

When A Boy Falls In Love
When A Boy Falls In Love
Composer(s): Sam Cooke; Clinton Levert Jr.
Performer(s): Sam Cooke
I've heard them say love was a wonderful thing
Something you couldn't hide on a shelf
But to me they no longer have to explain
Because I know for myself
He awakens each morn with a smile on his face
When a boy is in love
and the world to him is a beautiful place
When a boy is in love
He's up and he's gone, there's no breakfast for him
'Cause he lives on the love of his sweet little gem
The days are through, though it's not very long
Before he must talk to his girl on the phone
That's how it is when a boy falls in love
His girl's voice on the phone brings him wondrous delight
When a boy is in love
If there's been any darkness and all face from sight
When a boy is in love
He can hardly wait till the moment they meet
For he knows when he sees her, his day will be complete
When they're finally alone and he kisses her lips
The world sings a love song and his heart turns a flip
That's how it is when a boy falls in love
At the end of the day the time comes they must part
The strains of regret tear away at his heart
and late in the night, as he sleeps in his bed
Visions of her sweet charm, how they dance in his head
& before you know, he is buying a ring
To capture forever that sweet darlin' thing
That's how it is when a boy falls in love

Agnese
Agnese
Composer(s): Ivan Graziani - Di I. Elaborazione
Performer(s): Ivan Graziani
Se la mia chitarra piange dolcemente
stasera non è sera di vedere gente
e i giochi nella strada che ho chiusi dentro al petto
mi voglio ricordare
Io penso ad un barcone rovesciato al sole
in un giorno in pieno agosto le biciclette in riva al mare
Agnese mi parlava e la sabbia era infuocata
ed io non so perché non l'ho dimenticata
Lei mi raccontava di quello che la gente
diceva del suo corpo con malizia ed allegria
ed io che sto provando le cose che provavo ieri
non ho capito ancora
se è gelosia se sono prigioniero
di questo cielo nero e di un ricordo che fa male
e se continuo a bere i miei liquori inquinati
è vero che quei giorni non li ho dimenticati
E' uscito un po' di sole da questo cielo nero
l'inverno cittadino sembra quasi uno straniero
Agnese dolce Agnese color di cioccolata
adesso che ci penso non ti ho mai baciata
Agnese dolce Agnese color di cioccolata
adesso che ci penso
Io vado in bicicletta per sentirmi vivo
alle 5 di mattina con la nebbia nei polmoni
però non c'è più Agnese seduta sul manubrio
a cantar canzoni a cantar canzoni

When A Blind Man Cries
Composer(s): Ritchie Blackmore; Ian Gillan;
Roger Glover; Jon Lord; Ian Paice
Performer(s): Deep Purple;
and various other artists
If you're leaving, close the door
I'm not expecting people anymore
Hear me greaving, lying on the floor
Whether I'm drunk or dead I really ain't too sure
I'm a blind man, I'm a blind man
And my world is pale
When a blind man cries
Lord you know there ain't no sadder tale
Had a friend once, in a room
Had a good time, but it ended much to soon
In a cold month, in that room
Found a reason for the things we had to do
I'm a blind, I'm a blind man
Now my world is cold
When a blind man cries
Lord you know he feels it from his soul

Agnes
Agnes
Composer(s): Mark Avsec - Ierace
Performer(s): Donnie Iris
We were standing on the corner one night
Me and Agnes
She had these tight jeans on
And these high shoes
Bad
It was a warm September night
Wind was blowin' through the trees
This dude Louie was looking for a fight
He knocked me down with all his might
He put a gun up to my head
Stay away from her or you'll be dead
Don't you ever see that girl he said
Agnes was a waitress at our bar
Louie said she'd never go too far
Louie didn't see her in my car
Louie didn't see her in my car
After that fight at Louie's bar
Yeah Agnes
Caused you all this sadness
(He didn't know that you were out of your mind)
What you did was madness
(He didn't know it was the end of the line)
Someday we're gonna pay
(He had it coming to him)
We gotta watch out
(Watch out)
There's been talk about
(I didn't know that you were out of your mind)
Soon they're gonna find out
(I didn't know it was the end of the line)
What we did that day
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
She got off work at 2 o'clock
We drove away so we could talk
We didn't see Louie in the dark
Louie pulled me out onto the ground
Then I saw Louie start to run
He didn't know she had his gun
(He didn't know she had his gun)
I didn't know she had his gun
Oh-oh Agnes
He caused you all this sadness
(He didn't know that you were out of your mind)
It was madness
(He didn't know it was the end of the line)
We're gonna pay
(He had it coming to him)
Oh oh we have to watch out
(Watch out)
You know there's been alotta talk about
(I didn't know that you were out of your mind)
Someday soon they're gonna find out
(I didn't know it was the end of the line)
You better never look back
(He had it coming to him)
Baby don't look back
We got to run now
Baby throw away the gun now
(He didn't know that you were out of your mind)
Baby baby baby it's tough now
Someday we're gonna pay

Wheezy Anna
Wheezy Anna
Composer(s): Leslie Sarony
Performer(s): Ray Noble
There’s a girl, a great big girl, and all who’ve ever seen her
They know that every time she breathes she’s like a concertina
When she was young she bought a small mouth-organ for a tanner
She swallowed it and ever since they call her Wheezy Anna
Wheezy Anna, Wheezy Anna, down where the watermelons grow
(And they’ve got big pips in)
Wheezy Anna, Wheezy Anna, she’s the grandest girl I know
Who’s got eyes that are the best? - Wheezy Anna
One looks east and the other looks west - Wheezy Anna
Who’s got eyes as black as night? – Wheezy Anna
With the left one blacker than the right – Wheezy Anna
Wheezy Anna, Wheezy Anna, down where the watermelons grow
(Melons wet your ears so)
Wheezy Anna, Wheezy Anna, she’s the grandest girl I know
Who’s got teeth that are so bright? – Wheezy Anna
Like the stars, come out at night – Wheezy Anna
Who’s conceited – boy, and how? Wheezy Anna
When it thunders, takes a bow – Wheezy Anna
Who’s the fattest girl in town – Wheezy Anna
Who’s the female Teddy Brown – Wheezy Anna
When she tries to phone, they say - Wheezy Anna
Always presses Button ‘A’ – Wheezy Anna
Wheezy Anna, Anna, Wheezy Anna, Anna – down where the watermelons grow
(All the flies came off them)
Wheezy Anna, Anna, Wheezy Anna, she’s the grandest girl I know
Who’s tattooed upon her back? – Wheezy Anna
Stars and Stripes and Union Jack – Wheezy Anna
Snakes and things upon her vest – Wheezy Anna
Close your eyes and guess the rest – Wheezy Anna
Wheezy Anna, Wheezy Anna, down where the watermelons grow
(Like a great big football)
Wheezy Anna, Wheezy Anna, she’s the grandest girl I know

Aggravation
Aggravation
Composer(s): Ray Davies
Performer(s): The Kinks
Life grinds on day after day
In the city streets and motorways
The tension spreads just like a plague
Killing reason on the way
Like wildfire it spreads through the nation
Chocking us with aggravation
Who needs it?
The aggravation the daily goddam hassle
It's a bummer, who gives a dam?
Bumper to bumper in the traffic jam
Clench your jaw, getting all up tight
Breathing fumes, stuck in a tin can
Trapped, trapped
Hate, frustration, no escape
Glaring eyes all filled with hate
Arteries throb, coronaries pound
Aggravation all around
Like wildfire it spreads through the nation
Choking us with aggravation
They won the peace, we lost the war
So what are we still fighting for?
The highway's blocked, is this my end
To follow a Mercedes Benz?
Hey, Mitzibushi and Toyota, who said that the war was over?
Aggravations everywhere, get outta my way get out of my hair
Another jam, another day, another hair is turning grey
I wanna scream, I wanna say
Get outta my hair, get out of my way
Who needs it? Aggravation, aggravation
Had enough of all this aggravation
Tension choking up blocking my circulation
I've had enough, I've had enough of all this aggravation
While traffic jams and tempers break
The city streets are full of hate
The lights are red, it's all too late
How much can a poor man take?
Aggravation in my mind my body and my soul
There's no solution to it all, it's out of control
Out of control
Is it my imagination, am I seeing what is true?
If we are living in damnation
I'd live in hell to be with you, what more can I do?
I gotta violent streak caused by
We're getting uptight, wanna fight, everybody back bite
Now we can't turn back the future's bleak
I gotta mean appetite
I gotta get my daily fill of aggravation
Don't push 'cos I'm really pumped
I'm ready when you are, punk
So step aside, unless your dumb
I'm all wound up with aggravation
Had enough of all this aggravation
Winding up, stress filled, mad intimidation
And it touches all the passers-by
As dog eats dog to stay alive
Then moves on through the population
Till there's mass contamination
With violent streets all filled with fear
Pollution in the atmosphere
The ozone's gone and that's no fun
I've had enough of this, old son
Who needs it?
Aggravation.
And I don't have any answers
I just got an attitude
Do what it takes just to survive it
Another day but I'll get through
What more can I do?

Wheels Of Love
Wheels Of Love
Composer(s): Marjy Plant
Performer(s): Emmylou Harris
The wheels of love turn around and around
Keep on rolling till you've found
the perfect partner, somebody just right
to have and hold every day and every night
So she's halfway to Texas with all of her dreams
The world ain't as bad as what it might seem
You got a whole lot of living, honey, left to do
There's still a whole lot of love inside of you
The wheels of love turn around and around
They'll take you for a ride like a merry-go-round
Don't let the heartache hold you down
when there's plenty of love left to be found on the wheels
riding on the wheels of love
Catch you a ride imagine what you might find
Just the right girl at just the right time
Ready and waiting, she'll look you in the eyes
Ah, but the wheels of love will never compromise
So she broke your heart, honey, don't look back
You got to keep on rolling down the track
and maybe the next time you'll keep your feet on the ground
when the wheels of love spin you around
The wheels of love turn around and around
They'll take you for a ride like a merry-go-round
Don't let the heartache hold you down
when there's plenty of love left to be found on the wheels
riding on the wheels of love
The wheels of love turn around and around
They'll take you for a ride like a merry-go-round
Don't let the heartache hold you down
when there's plenty of love left to be found on the wheels
riding on the wheels of love
Oh, the wheels
riding on the wheels of love

Performer(s): Bessie Smith
and multiple other artists
I know a drivin' man
They call him Driver Sam
He lives in Birmingham
Way down in Alabam
Now, the other night
He had a fight with a gal named Mandy Brown
She kept on saying he was aggravatin'
And she shouted out to him
Aggravatin' Papa, don't you try to two-time me!
I said, don't two-time me!
Aggravatin' Papa, treat me kind or let me be
I mean, just let me be!
It's been awhile, I'll get you told
Stop messin' round, sweet jellyroll
If you stay out with a high-brown baby
I'll smack you down, and I don't mean maybe!
Aggravatin' Papa, I'll do anything you say
Anything you say
But when you go struttin', do your strut around my way!
So, papa, just treat me pretty, be nice and kind!
The way you treated me will make me lose my mind!
Aggravatin' Papa, don't you try to two-time me!
Just treat me pretty, be nice and sweet!
I got a darn forty-four that don't repeat
Aggravatin' Papa, don't you try to two-time me!
