Darlin' Cora
Darlin' Cora
Composer(s): Fred Brooks
Performer(s): Harry Belafonte
Wake up, wake up Darlin' Cora
Wanna see you one more time
The sheriff and his hound dogs a coming
I gotta move on down the line
I don't know why darlin' Cora
Don't know what the reason can be
But I never had found a single town
Where me and my boss-man agree
I ain't a man to be played with
I ain't nobody's toy
Been working for my pay for a long, long time
How come he still calls me boy
Well I'd rather drink muddy water
And sleep in a hollowed out log
Than to hang around in this old town
And be treated like a dirty dog
Well I whopped that man darlin' Cora
And he fell down where he stood
Don't know if I was wrong darlin' Cora
But Lord it sure felt good
If it wasn't so dark darlin' Cora
You'd see tears trickling down my face
It breaks my heart darlin' Cora
But I got to leave this place
Wake up, wake up darlin' Cora

Angel Flying Too Close To The Ground
Composer(s): Willie Nelson
First release by: Willie Nelson - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists
If you had not have fallen
I would not have found you
Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground
And I patched up your broken wings
And hung around a while
Trying to keep your spirits up
And your fever down
Knew someday that you would fly away
For loves the greatest healer to be found
So leave me if you need to
I will still remember
Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground
So fly on
Fly on
Past the speed of sound
I'd rather see you up then to see you down
So leave me if you need to
I'll still remember
Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground
Leave me if you need to
I'll still remember
Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground

Angel Fingers
Angel Fingers
Composer(s): Roy Wood
Performer(s): Wizzard
As I was lying in my bedroom fast asleep
Filled with those famous teenage pictures that you keep
Will Dion still be so important to you on your wedding day
Angel Fingers, Angel Fingers
How I'd sing for the things you do
How it lingers, Angel Fingers
That's why I fell in love with you
I drove my motorcycle to that small café
That's when I heard our favourite record start to play
If I'm not singing in a suit that's clinging
Please don't walk away
Angel Fingers, Angel Fingers
How I'd sing for the things you do
How it lingers, Angel Fingers
That's why I fell in love with you
If I could land a job with that cool rockin' band
You'd notice me with that red guitar in my hand
With money in my jeans my baby
We'd have all these things we planned
Angel Fingers, Angel Fingers
How I'd sing for the things you do
How it lingers, Angel Fingers
That's why I fell in love with you
Oh Oh Angel, Angel Fingers
How I'd sing for the things you do
How it lingers, Angel Fingers
That's why I fell in love with you

Darlin'
Originally performed by: Frankie Miller
Covered by various other artists
Darlin', I'm feeling pretty lonesome
I'd call you on the phone soon
But I don't have a dime
Darlin' you're so far behind me
Tomorrow's gonna find me
Further down the line
Takin' me some paper
Pencil in my hand
I'm gonna write
Darlin', you know I feel the cold nights
Thinking of the old nights
Spent along with you
Darlin' the tear is in my eye now
Knowing I can try now
To make it back to you
Darlin', love you more than ever
Wish we were together
Darlin' of mine.
Darlin', I'm feeling pretty lonesome, ...

Your picture on my wall, your letter on my bed
And, darling, I recall everything you said
Angel face, angel face, angel face
Darling, I love you
Oh, if you were here once more in my embrace
I'd kiss away each tear from your angel face
Angel face, angel face, angel face

Won't you come back soon and fill my empty arms?

Darlin' (Brenton Wood)
Darlin'
Performer(s): Brenton Wood
Darlin', if I sat down and I wrote a song
I would know where every word belongs
'cuz I'd write my song about you
Darlin', if I tried to paint a work of art
all the colors would pour from my heart
'cuz all I think about is you
If I built a tower, it would reach right to the sky
If I plant a flower, it will never die
I could climb a mountain
No, there's nothing I couldn't do
Now that's the way it is for me now that I found you
Darlin', I find I think about you every day
You're the only thing that's on my mind
Couldn't make it without you
Darlin', I love you
Darlin' Darlin' Darlin', I need you...

Angel Eyes
Composer(s): Earl Brent Matt Dennis
First recording/First release by: Ella Fitzgerald - 1952/Nat King Cole & Billy May & His Orch. - 1953
Covered by multiple other artists
Try to think that love's not around
Still it's uncomfortably near
My own heart ain't gainin' no ground
Because my Angel Eyes ain't here
Angel Eyes that old devil sent
They glow unbearably bright
Need I say that my love's mis-spent
Mis-spent with Angel Eyes tonight
So drink up, drink up all you people
And order anything you see
Have fun you happy people
The drink, and the laugh's, on me
Pardon me, but I gotta run
The fact's uncommonly clear
I gotta find who's now number one
And why my Angel Eyes ain't here
I gotta find who's now the number one
And why my Angel Eyes ain't here
`Scuse me while I disappear

Darla Dirladada (Italian Version)
Darla Dirladada
Composer(s): Boris Bergman; Pallavicini Guinis
Performer(s): Dalida
Dirladadà dirladadà
Ho seminato il grano el vento
Ho messo il enore in un convento
Dirladadà dirladadà
Ho riso e quaiche volta pianto
Non so se il mondo vale tanto
Io son felice quando canto
Ho dirlada una montagna
Mi siedo sopra e elo che vedo
Dico che è mio e poi ci credo
Redirlada dirladadà
Ci vuole con poco in fondo
Per diventare i re del mondo
Io danzero dirladadà
Dirladadà il mondo bella
La pazza danza della vita
Solleva il mondo con due dita
E centomila cuori in festa
Cantasse il mondo più di adesso
La stessa vuota trite vita
Che fa dirla dirladadà
E dirlada era un ragazzo
Diceva cose mai sentite
Mi dava cose mai avute
E solo lacrime ha lasciato
Il mio nomo le ha capite
E mi ha curato le ferite
Dirladadà dirladadà
E dirlada il mondo bella
La pazza danza della vita
Solleva il mondo con due dita
Dirladadà dirladadà
Una canzone da cantare
E volte fa dimenticare
Oh dirlada il mondo canta
Dirladadà la gente bella
La vita è un dirladadà
Pero la vita lo si sa
Va presa in fondo come va
E la morale è questa qua
E dirlada dirladadà
Oh dadadà dirladadà...

Angeleyes
Angeleyes
Composer(s): Benny Andersson - Björn Ulvaeus
First release by: ABBA - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, keep thinking 'bout his angeleyes
I keep thinking, a-aaah
Last night I was taking a walk along the river
And I saw him together with a young girl
And the look that he gave her made me shiver
'Cause he always used to look at me that way
Then I thought maybe I should walk right up to her and say
Ah-ha-ha, it's a game he likes to play
Look into his angeleyes
One look and you're hypnotized
He'll take your heart and you must pay the price
Look into his angeleyes
You'll think you're in paradise
And one day you'll find out he wears a disguise
Don't look too deep into those angeleyes
Oh no no no no
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, keep thinking 'bout his angeleyes
I keep thinking, a-aaah
Sometimes when I'm lonely I sit and think about him
And it hurts to remember all the good times
When I thought I could never live without him
And I wonder does it have to be the same
Every time when I see him, will it bring back all the pain?
Ah-ha-ha, how can I forget that name?
Look into his angeleyes
One look and you're hypnotized
He'll take your heart and you must pay the price
Look into his angeleyes
You'll think you're in paradise
And one day you'll find out he wears a disguise
Don't look too deep into those angeleyes
Crazy 'bout his angeleyes
Angeleyes
He took my heart and now I pay the price
Look into his angeleyes
You'll think you're in paradise
Then one day you'll find out he wears a disguise
Don't look too deep into those angeleyes
Oh no no no no
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, keep thinking, ah-aaaah
Keep thinking 'bout his angeleyes
Ah-ha-ha, keep thinking, ah-aaaah
Keep thinking, I had to pay the price
(repeat)

Darla Dirladada (German Version)
Darla Dirladada
Composer(s): Boris Bergman
Performer(s): Dalida
So schön es war, doch nun ist schluss
Denn alles kommt, wie's kommen muss
Da helfen schöne orte nicht
Wenn auch dein mund so viel verspricht
So schön es war, doch nun ist schluss
Es gibt nur noch den abschiedskuss
Dann geh ich fort aus unsrem haus
Denn für uns beide ist es aus
Du liebst dein geld und willst noch mehr
Ich hab zwei hände, die sind leer
So schön es war, doch nun ist schluss
Adieu, leb wohl, ein letzter gruss
Du kannst vergessen, ach, so schnell
Die andre tritt an meine stell
Ich aber werde traurig sein
Dort im hotel und gauz allein
Ich hasse sie, die grosse stadt
Die mich ums glück betrogen hat
Mir bleiben nur noch wald und feld
Dort, wo freund fluss mir treue hält
Der mit mir lebt, weil er mich kennt
Wenn er über die kiesel rennt
Singt er, singt er allein für mich
Re dirlada dirladada
Ich hass dich nicht, du bist nicht schlecht
Jetzt hab ich doch auf mich ein recht
Der heisst dirla dirladada
Wie all das geld, das dir gehört
Es war so schön, doch nun ist schluss
Denn alles kommt, wiets kommen muss
Ich hab dir ja gesagt, warum
Ich gehe fort, schau mich nicht um
Geh hin zum fluss, zu meinem freund
Der singt dirlade dirlada
Ich hass dich nicht, du bist nicht schlecht
Jetzt hab ich doch auf mich ein recht
Und nun gehör ich meinem fluss
Und lebe, wie ich leben muss
Und singe mit dem fluss vereint
Ein frohes lied mit meinem freund
Das lied Dirlare dirlada
Oh dadada dirladada
Re dirlada dirladada
Darla dirla dirladada

You excite me everytime you speak
When you touch me I get, oh, so weak
I have never met a girl like you, baby
You're the one that I'll give my whole life to
All I wanna say is angel doll
When I met you there with holiness
You're my everything I must confess
I have never known such tenderness
Baby, you can't compare this love we share
That takes away my feels, yeah
This love and real I can't conceal
And I'm so, so, so glad you're here
Angel doll, it will be a great catastrophe, baby
And my whole world would comin' down on me
If our love would ever seize to be
That's why I call you, angel doll
You're the substance of my every prayer, baby
I'll be happy with you anywhere
Let me shield you with my loving care
Heaven must have sent you, honey
You're an angel in disguise, yeah
'Cause all the love I wanted so long

Angel doll, I put no one above you
Angel doll, you knock me off of my feet
Angel doll, you make my whole life complete
Angel doll ...

Darla Dirladada
Composer(s): Boris Bergman; J. Musy
Performer(s): Dalida
Adieu Monsieur tout est fini
Quitte moi et refais ta vie
Je préférais la fleur des champs
Toi le soleil de ses vingt ans
Monsieur tu n'étais pas fidèle
A ce qu'en disait mes amis
Il faisait bon dans le logis
Adieu Monsieur j'avais du cœur
Elle a deux champs et un tracteur
Et moi je n'ai que mes deux mains
Pour semer le vent et le grain
Adieu Monsieur pendant que t'aime
Moi j'irai voir pousser les graines
Adieu Monsieur tout est fini
Adieu l'enfant tu pars aussi
On dit que la ville c'est mieux qu'ici
Tu pourras avoir des voitures
Comme dans les livres d'aventures
Je n'ai qu'une enfant, c'est ma terre
Je n'ai qu'une amie, la rivière
Elle est à moi elle me connaît
Quand elle danse sur les galets
Elle fait dirla dirladada, et dirlada dirladada
Cour le furet file la vague
Je vivrai dans un monde d'algues
Qui fait dirla dirladada
Adieu l'enfant, adieu marie
Laissez-moi donc vivre ma vie
Il est temps de couper le seigle
Je crois que je vous ai tout dit
Je n'ai qu'une enfant, c'est ma terre
Je n'ai qu'une amie, la rivière
Elle fait dirla dirladada
Court le furet file la vague
Je vivrai dans un monde d'algues
Qui fait dirla dirladada
Et j'aurais l'océan pour toi
Qui chante ladirladada ladidir dirladada
Redirlada dirladada oh dadadadirladada
Qui chante ladirladada...

You're just as sweet as an angel

I couldn't do without you

My happiness is complete
It seems in all my dreaming

Angel child, I'm just wild about you
Angel child, say that you love me too
In your arms forever I'd stay
You drive away, shadows of gray
When you smile, I'm in heaven it's true
Cuddle closer do

When I say that I'm wild about you

Goin' to dance out both my shoes

Tomorrow night, at the Darktown Strutter's Ball

Originally performed by: The Youngbloods
Covered by various other artists
Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my hand, and let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep
Darkness, darkness, has me yearning
For things that cannot be
Keep me my mind from constant turning
Toward the things it cannot see
Things it cannot see
Things it cannot see
Darkness, darkness, long and lonesome
As the day brings the pain
I have found the edge of stillness
I live in the depth of fear
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with endless night
Take away the pain that flows away
Fill the emptiness with bright
Emptiness with bright
Emptiness with bright
Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my hand, and let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with endless night
Take away the pain that flows away
Fill the emptiness with bright
Emptiness with bright

Who is the girl who can curl me around her finger when we kiss again
Who can imagine what I'd give for Angel baby
