Performer(s): The Chordettes;
and various other artists
........... that I love you so
Awake or sleeping
My hearts's in your keeping
And calling to you soft and low
My wonderful one
Whenever I'm dreaming
Love's lovelight a-gleaming I see
My wonderful one
How my arms ache to hold, dear
To cuddle and fold you to me
Just you, only you
In the shadowy twilight
In silvery moonlight
There's none like you, I adore you
My life I'll live for you,
Oh, my wonderful, wonderful one

Am Tag als der Regen kam, langersehnt, heißerfleht
auf die glühenden Felder, auf die durstigen Wälder
am Tag als der Regen kam, langersehnt, heißerfleht
da erblühten die Bäume, da erwachten die Träume
da kamst du
Ich war allein im fremden Land
die Sonne hat die Erde verbrannt
überall nur Leid und Einsamkeit
und du, ja du, so weit, so weit
Doch eines Tages vom Süden her
da zogen Wolken über das Meer
und als endlich dann der Regen rann
fing auch für mich das Leben an, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja
Am Tag als der Regen kam, langersehnt, heißerfleht
auf die glühenden Felder, auf die durstigen Wälder
am Tag als der Regen kam, weit und breit, wundersam
als die Glocken erklangen, als von Liebe sie sangen
da kamst du, da kamst du

Performer(s): Danny Kaye;
and various other artists
Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Friendly old girl of a town
'Neath her tavern light
On this merry night
Let us clink and drink one down
To wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Salty old queen of the sea
Once I sailed away
But I'm home today
Singing Copenhagen, wonderful, wonderful
Copenhagen for me
I sailed up the Skagerrak
And sailed down the Kattegat
Through the harbour and up to the quay
And there she stands waiting for me
With a welcome so warm and so gay
Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Friendly old girl of a town
'Neath her tavern light
On this merry night
Let us clink and drink one down
To wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Salty old queen of the sea
Once I sailed away
But I'm home today
Singing Copenhagen, wonderful, wonderful
Copenhagen for me

Confusi in un sol fremito
Ti perlero con tutta l'anima
Ti bacero, ti bacero si

Wonderful Baby
Wonderful Baby
Composer(s): Don McLean
Performer(s): Don McLean
Wonderful baby, livin' on love
The sandman says maybe he'll take you above
Up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows
Where babies float by just counting their toes
Wonderful baby, nothin' but new
The world has gone crazy, I'm glad I'm not you
At the beginning, or is it the end
It goes in and comes out and start over again
Wonderful baby, livin' on love
The sandman says maybe he'll take you above
Up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows
Where babies float by just counting their toes
Wonderful baby, I'll watch while you grow
If I knew the future you'd be first to know
But I don't know nothin' of what life's about
Just as long as you live you never find out
Wonderful baby, nothin' to fear
Love whom you will but doubt what you hear
They'll whisper sweet thing and make you untrue
So be good to yourself, that's all you can do
You're a wonderful baby, livin' on love
The sandman says maybe he'll take you above
Up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows
Where babies float by just counting their toes

The day that the rains came down
Mother Earth smiled again
Now the lilacs could bloom
Now the fields could grow greener
The fday that the rains came down
Buds were born, love was born
As the young buds will grow
So our young love will grow
Love, sweet love
A robin sang a song of love
A willow tree reached up to the heavens
As if to thank the sky above
For all that rain, that welcome rain
We looked across the meadowland
And seemed to sense a kind of a miracle
Much too deep to understand
And there we were, so much in love
The day that the rains came down
Mountain streams swelled with pride
Gone the dry river bed
Gone the dust from the valley
The day that the rains came down
Buds were born, love was born
As the young buds will grow
So our young love will grow
Love, sweet love
Rain sweet rain

Le jour où la pluie viendra
Nous serons, toi et moi
Les plus riches du monde
Les plus riches du monde
Les arbres, pleurant de joie
Offriront dans leurs bras
Les plus beaux fruits du monde
Les plus beaux fruits du monde
Ce jour-là
La triste, triste terre rouge
Qui craque, craque à l'infini
Les branches nues que rien ne bouge
Se gorgeront de pluie, de pluie
Et le blé roulera par vagues
Au fond de greniers endormis
Et je t'enroulerai de bagues
Et de colliers jolis, jolis
Le jour où la pluie viendra
Nous serons, toi et moi
Les fiancés du monde
Les plus riches du monde
Les arbres, pleurant de joie
Offriront dans leurs bras
Les plus beaux fruits du monde
Les plus beaux fruits du monde
Ce jour-là...

Wonder Woman
From the TV series "Wonder Woman" (1976 - 1979)
Composer(s): Norman Gimbel; Charles Fox
Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman
All the world's waiting for you, and the power you possess
In your satin tights
Fighting for your rights
And the old Red, White and Blue
Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman
Now the world is ready for you, and the wonders you can do
Make a hawk a dove
Stop a war with love
Make a liar tell the truth
Wonder Woman
Get us out from under, Wonder Woman
All our hopes are pinned on you, and the magic that you do
Stop a bullet cold
Make the Axis fall
Change their minds, and change the world
Wonder Woman, Wonder Woman
You're a wonder, Wonder Woman

Am I Wasting My Time On You?
Composer(s): Howard Johnson - Irving Bibo
Performer(s): Lewis James
and multiple other artists
Am I wasting my time
By thinking you're mine
And dreaming the way that I do
Am I wasting the tears
I cried all these years
Just wondering if your love is true
Will I lose in the end
And just be a friend
Please tell me it's time that I knew
Will my heart have to pay
Will you send me away
Am I wasting my time on you
Will it all be in vain
Am I wasting my time on you

Women Will Rule The World
Women Will Rule The World
Composer(s): Raymond Quevedo
Performer(s): Ry Cooder
How different the ladies of long ago
to the modern women that we all know
If you observe you are bound to see
that sex has changed entirely
A long ago their one ambition in life
was to be a mother and a wife
Now they go out imitating the males
by smoking cigarettes and drinking cocktails
Girls used to like to be school teachers
gradually becoming stenographers
We next hear of them as lecturers, authors and engineers
There is no limit to their ambition
they've even gone in for aviation
And if you men don't assert control
your women will rule the world
Play a bridge!
Now they say anything that your man can do
they also can achieve too
And they've openly boasted to do their part
in the literature and art
We will next hear of them as candidates
for the president of these United States
And if you men don't assert control
your women will rule the world
Now you hear on the radio and TV
of a great national calamity
Story of tragic proportion coming
from the White House in Washington
The facts in the case are clearly stated
the president is being cruely dominated
By a international conspiracy
that threatens world peace and security

Am I Too Late?
Am I Too Late?
Composer(s): Jim Hurt - Larry Keith
Performer(s): Kenny Rogers; Gladys Knight
I don't understand your hesitation
You always were so quick to say
What needed to be said
But you're standing there
just saying nothing
Please say something
just don't tell me I'm too late
It took a while for me
to understand my feelings for you
I hope it's not too late
to say I love you
'cause god knows I do
Before you turn away
and the chance I had to love you is gone
You got to know
I've finally found the feeling
And though I never told you
I live my life to hold you
Am I too late
to show myself
is it too late to let you know
Do you feel me
Am I touching you
Scares me to think you might say no
'Cause it's too late for me to let you go
You got to know
I've finally found the feeling
And though I never told you
I live my live to hold you
Am I too late to show myself
Is it too late to let you know
Do you feel me
Am I touching you
It scares me to think you might say no
'Cause it's too late
For me
to let you go
Am I too late
To show myself
Am I too late
to let you know
do you feel me
Am I touching you
Scares me to think that you might say no
Am I too late
To show myself
Am I too late
To let you know
Do you feel me
Am I touching you
Scares me to think that you might say no

Women Do Funny Things To Me
Women Do Funny Things To Me
Composer(s): Larry Kingston
Performer(s): Del Reeves
Doo do do do doo a doo do do do doo
On a bareback camel I rode across Egypt
Without water in the blistered sun
And in Spain I stood calmly without even a cape
And for the bull he was too tired to run
Bound and tied a gagged and nailed in a barrel I went over Niagara oh yes
But baby last night when you said you loved I turned into a quivering mess
'Cause women do funny things to me women do funny things to me
I'm usually perfectly calm and colective and curious as I can be
But ruby lips swingin' hips bitter minds tender sighs
Pretty curles and flirty girls I see they do funny things to me
Without a guide or a gun I went a huntin'
Killed a tiger with my two bare hands
Without a rope and barefooted I climbed Mount Everest
And didn't even get a blister on my hand
Through the Okefenokee I waded pass the gators
And the snakes and skeeters and flies
But baby last night when we started kissin'
I said Lord I can't stand it I'm gonna die
'Cause women do funny things to me...
Without a dog or a sled I walked across the Yukon
It was spring but it was forty below
And when they began to plan for the moon
Guess who volunteered to go
Yes I'm always ready to show my courage and my extreme bravery
But baby last night when you talked marriage you scared the living outta me
Oh women do funny things to me...
Funny things to me doo do do do doo funny things to me

Why don't you stop
And look me over?
Am I the same girl
You used to know?
Why don't you stop
And think it over?
Am I the same girl
Whom you hurt so?
I'm the one you want
And I'm the one you need
I'm the one you love
The one you used to meet
Around the corner everyday
We would meet and slip away
But we were much too young
To love each other this way
Am I the same girl?
Yes I am, yes I am
Am I the same girl?
Yes I am, yes I am
Why don't you stop
And look me over?
Am I the same girl
You used to know?
Why don't you stop
And think it over?
Am I the same girl
Whom you hurt so?
I'm the one you hurt
And I'm the one you need
I'm the one who cried
The one you used to need
But you are pretending you don't care
But the fire, ahh, is still there
But we are no longer too young
To love each other this way
Am I the same girl?
Yes I am, yes I am
Am I the same girl?
Yes I am, yes I am
Oh, yes I am
Am I the same girl?
(Yes I am, yes I am)
Am I the same girl?, yeah
(Yes I am, yes I am)
Oh, yes I am
Am I the same girl?

Women Be Wise
Women Be Wise
Composer(s): Sippie Wallace; John Beach
Performer(s): Bonnie Raitt;
and various other artists
Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man
Don't sit around gossiping, explaining what your good man really can do
Some women nowadays, Lord they ain't no good
They will laugh in your face
Then try to steal your man from you
Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man
Your best girlfriend, she might be a highbrow, she changes clothes 3 times a day
What do you think she's doing now, while you're so far away
She's loving your man in your own damn bed
You better call for the doctor, mama, try to investigate your head
Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man
Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man
Don't sit around, girl, telling all your secrets,
telling all those good things he really can do
If you talk about your baby, you tell me he's so fine
Lord honey, I just might sneek up and try to make him mine
Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man
Don't be no fool, don't advertise your man (baby don't do it)

Before you leave be sure you find
You want his love much more than mine
'Cause I'll just say we've never met
If I'm that easy to forget
Before you leave be sure you find
You want his love much more than mine
'Cause I'll just say we've never met
If I'm that easy to forget
If I'm that easy to forget

Makes his living running other lives
Tells them when they can't and when they can
They're so busy they don't give a damn
Women around the world at work...
Working, working...
