Namely You


Namely You
Composer(s): Gene DePaul; Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme;
and various other artists



You deserve a boy who's willin', namely me
One who'd love to raise my chillun, namely me
Comin' home when the work is over at the close of day
I'd be with you all the way, to love, honor, and obey

'Cause you deserve two arms to hold you, namely mine
There to comfort and enfold you, rain or shine
I deserve someone sweet and tender, bashful and shy and true
And I know just the one who'll do, namely you

Who's the one you're waiting for?
You're the one that I adore!
I deserve someone sweet and tender, bashful and shy and true
And I know just the one who'll do, namely you

In Amore


In Amore
Composer(s): Duchesca; Bruno Zambini
Performer(s): Richard Clayderman; Barbare Cola; Gianni Morandi



Ti supererò
in amore andrò
molto più lontano dove
tu speranza sei

Con le mani andrò
dove sento il cuore
che mi fa capire come
stai aspettando me

Ti supererò
in amore andrò
dove non hai mai sognato
di arrivare tu

Con il viso andrò
dentro un sentimento
dove non sei stato ancora
tormentato tu

Dimmi dove (quando)
quando (dove)
Cuore, mi avvicino più a te

Tu dimmi le parole (care)
fino al cuore (calde)
quando...

Me me inventerò
sto spaccando il cuore
trovo immerse nel rossore
tanti amore mio
Sono i tuoi tutti tuoi
Ti sto superando (dove)
fino al cuore (quando)
ora, non vedo che te

La tua vita è vita per la vita mia
e gli occhi mi appartengono
le tue labbra, ciglia...
E il cuore è in mano a me

Tutto il tenero che puoi
non te lo renderò
Io non ti voglio ricordare
non esisti altrove ma
in me

Ti supererò
vedo ad occhi chiusi
dove fare dolci abusi
e bei soprusi a te

Ti supererò col mio amore insone
e agitato che non dorme
per svegliare te

Dimmi dove (quando)
quando (dove)
caro cuore, io non vedo che te

Ti sto raggiungendo (dove)
fino al cuore (quando)
ora...

Ti supererò
in amore andrò
oltre la parola amore

E non torno più

Naké-Di Naké-Dou
Composer(s): Adai; H. Gietz; K.G. Neuanin
Performer(s): Dalida



Des savants venus du monde entier
Honoraient de leur présence en congrès
Un grand professeur exposa ses divers
L'ultime secret de l'univers

Naké-di, Naké dou, Naké daï daï daï
Proton et neutron
Naké-di, Naké dou, Naké daï daï daï
3 14 116 30 4 H B
Naké-di, Naké dou, Naké daï daï daï
2 et 2 font 4
Naké-di, Naké dou, Naké daï daï daï
Et voilà pourquoi le soleil éclaire

Lors de la lecture du testament
A la mort du grand père milliardaire
Les héritiers entendirent le cœur battant
Ces mots de la bouche du notaire

Naké-di, Naké dou, Naké daï daï daï
Je ne vous laisse rien
Naké-di, Naké dou, Naké daï daï daï
Et tout mon argent je l'ai dépensé

Quand à moi qui ai fini de chanter
Le bonheur ou les peines de cœur
Je délivre au monde voici qu'il en est l'heure
Mon message de chanteuse engagée

Naké-di, Naké dou, Naké daï daï daï
Pour refaire le monde
Naké-di, Naké dou, Naké daï daï daï
Aimons nous donc tous et tout ira mieux
Naké-di, Naké dou, Naké daï daï daï
On soit tous heureux
Naké-di, Naké dou, Naké daï daï daï
Ayant dit cela je vous salue bien

In America


In America
Composer(s): Tom Crain; Charlie Daniels; Joel "Taz" DiGregorio; Fred Edwards; Charlie Hayward; Jim Marshall
Performer(s): The Charlie Daniels Band



Well the eagle's been flying slow and the flag's been flying low
And a lot of people are saying that America's fixing to fall
But speaking just for me and some people from Tennessee
We got a thing or two to tell you all
This lady may have stumbled but she ain't never fell
And if the Russians don't believe that they can all go straight to hell
We're gonna put her feet back on the path of righteousness
And then God bless America again

And you never did think that it ever would happen again
In America, did you?
You never did think that we'd ever get together again
Well we damn sure fooled you
We're walking real proud and we're talking real loud again in America
You never did think that it ever would happen again

From the sound up in Long Island out to San Francisco Bay
And ev'ry thing that's in between them is our home
And we may have done a little bit of fighting amongst ourselves
But you outside people best leave us alone
'Cause we'll all stick together and you can take that to the bank
That's the cowboys and the hippies and the rebels and the yanks
You just go and lay your head on a Pittsburgh Steeler fan
And I think you're gonna finally understand

And you never did think that it ever would happen again
In America, did you?
You never did think that we'd ever get together again
Well we damn sure fooled you
We're walking real proud and we're talking real loud again in America
You never did think that it ever would happen again

In A Station


In A Station
Composer(s): Richard Manuel
Performer(s): The Band; Karen Dalton; Olivia Newton-John



Once I walked through the halls of a station
Someone called your name
In the street I heard children laughing
They all sound the same
Wonder, could you ever know me
Know the reason why I live
Is there nothing you can show me
Life seems so little to give

Once I climbed up the face of a mountain
And ate the wild fruit there
Fell asleep until the moonlight woke me
And I could taste your hair
Isn't everybody dreaming!
Then the voice I hear is real
Out of all the idle scheming
Can't we have something to feel

Once upon a time leaves me empty
Tomorrow never comes
I could sing the sound of your laughter
Still I don't know your name
Must be some way to repay you
Out of all the good you gave
If a rumour should delay you
Love seems so little to save

Naioma


Naioma
Composer(s): Rodolfo Barrera; Lido Socapi
Perfomer(s): José Feliciano



A veces el amor
nos causa tanto miedo
nos causa tanto miedo
que fabricamos un amor
que no es el verdadero
el verdadero
Pero el amor nos llega
cuando estamos solos
cuando estamos solos
A veces el amor
nos causa tanto miedo, tanto miedo
que fabricamos un amor
que no es sincero

Mira a tus ojos y nada importa
por que de pronto tengo misterios

Te hago el amor
aunque no parezca que te hago el amor
me haces el amor
aunque no parezca que haces el amor

A veces el amor
nos causa miedo, nos causa miedo
por que el amor
no tiene pensamiento

Te hago el amor
más allá del amor
por que el amor
va más allá del cuerpo
por que el amor
es algo más que un espíritu

Por que el amor
es algo más
que este algo más
que este algo más
a veces el amor nos causa miedo
que fabricamos un amor
que no es sincero

sencillamente es el amor
es el amor
es nuestro amor
somos tú y yo
solos tú y yo

In A Sentimental Mood


In A Sentimental Mood
Composer(s): Duke Ellington; Mann Curtis; Irving Mills
First release by: Duke Ellington & His Orch. - 1935
Covered by multiple other artists



In A Sentimental Mood I can see
the stars come through my room
While your loving attitude is
like a flame that lights the gloom
On the wings of ev'ry kiss
Drifts a melody so strange and sweet
In this sentimental bliss you make
my Paradise complete
Rose petals seem to fall
It's like a dream to call you mine
My heart's a lighter thing since you
made me this night a thing divine
In A Sentimental Mood
I'm within a world so heavenly
For I never dreamt that you'd be
loving sentimental me
In A Sentimental Mood I can see
the stars come through my room
While your loving attitude is
like a flame that lights the gloom
On the wings of ev'ry kiss
Drifts a melody so strange and sweet
In this sentimental bliss you make
my Paradise complete
Rose petals seem to fall
It's like a dream to call you mine
My heart's a lighter thing since you
made me this night a thing divine
In A Sentimental Mood
I'm within a world so heavenly
For I never dreamt that you'd be
loving sentimental me

Någonting Händer Med Mig


Någonting Händer Med Mig
English Title: Something Happened To Me
Composer(s): A. Moorehouse; G. Rees;
S. Nardelli; Bo-Göran Edling
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



Går och grunnar på
Något jag ej kan förstå
Ändå har jag en aning
Då så helt utan varning
Någonting händer med mej

I ditt ögonpar
Ser jag med ens ett svar
Och jag känner en ilning
Vilken underbar feeling
Någonting händer med mej

Refräng:
Jag vill sjunga
För jag har mött den jag håller kär
Vi är unga
Och då ska det väl kännas just så här

Nu så har jag fått
Dej och det känns så gott
Som jag satt i en gunga
Och med dig vill jag sjunga
Någonting händer med mej

Ja, med dig vill jag sjunga
Någonting händer med mej

Refräng

Någonting händer med mej
Någonting händer med mej
Någonting händer med mej
Någonting händer med mej

In A Shanty In Old Shanty Town


In A Shanty In Old Shanty Town (aka It's Only A Shanty In Old Shanty Town)
Composer(s): Joe Young; Little Jack Little; John Siras
First release by: Ted Lewis & His Band
Covered by multiple other artists



I'm up in the world
but I'd give the world to be where I used to be
A heavenly nest
where I rest the best
means more than the world to me

It's only a shanty
in old Shanty Town
the roof is so slanty it touches the ground.
But my tumbled down shack by an old railroad track
like a millionaire's mansion is calling me back

I'd give up a palace if I were a king
It's more than a palace, it's my everything
There's a queen waiting there with a silvery crown
in a shanty in old Shanty Town

Nagasaki


Nagasaki
Composer(s): Harry Warren; Mort Dixon
Performer(s): The Mills Brothers;
and various other artists



Fellows, if you're arn
I will spin a yarn
That was told to me by Able Seaman Jones
Once he had the blues
So he took a cruise
Far away from night-clubs and from saxophones
He said, "Yo Ho, I've made a certain port
And when you talk about real he-man sport"

Hot ginger and dynamite
There's nothing but that at night
Back in Nagasaki
Where the fellers chew tobaccy
And the women wicky-wacky
Woo
The way they can entertain
Would hurry a hurricane
Back in Nagasaki
Where the fellers chew tobaccy
And the women wicky wacky
Woo

In Fujiama
You get a mama
Then your troubles increase
In some pagoda
She orders soda
Earth-shake milk-shakes, ten cents a piece
They kissy and huggy nice
Oh, By Jingo!
It's worth the price
Back in Nagasaki
Where the fellers chew tobaccy
And the women wicky-wacky
Woo

Now when the day is warm
You can keep in form
With a bowl of rice beneath a parasol.
Every gentle man
Has to use a fan
And they only use suspenders in the fall
That's where the girls don't think of rings and furs
Gosh, it's the nicest place that ever weres

They give you a carriage free
The horse is a Japanee
Back in Nagasaki
Where the fellers chew tobaccy
And the women wicky-wacky
Woo
They sit you upon the floor
No wonder your pants get sore
Back in Nagasaki
Where the fellers chew tobaccy
And the women wicky-wacky
Woo

With Sweet Kimoner
I pulled a boner
I kept it up at high speed
I got rhumatics
And then psyatics
Halatosisis, that's guarenteed
You just have to act your age
Or wind up inside a cage
Back in Nagasaki
Where the fellers chew tobaccy
And the women wicky-wacky
Woo

With an ice-cream cone and a bottle of tea
You can rest all day by the hickory tree
But when night comes round, oh gosh oh gee
Mother, mother, mother, pin a rose on me.

Those pretty mamas
In pink pyjamas
They try to give you a kiss
Those torid teases
In B.V.D.ses
Heaven help a sailor on a night like this!
Not too gentle and not too rough
But you've got to tell them when you've had enough
Back in Nagasaki
Where the fellers chew tobaccy
And the women wicky-wacky
Woo

In A Rainbow


In A Rainbow
Composer(s): Alex Delzoppo
Performer(s): Sweetwater



I'm in a rainbow
And I'm feeling mighty good
Colored vibrations passing me by
Some going through me
Not telling me why
Some slow and some fast
And some teaching me how to fly

I'm in a rainbow
And I'm feeling mighty good
Noises to see and colors that sound
Voices from nowhere and yet so profound
Naming off colors and places
That just can't be found

I'm in a rainbow
And I'm feeling might good
Constantly moving but not knowing where
Gazing at hypnotic things here and there
And always thinking ahead
'Cause the past couldn't care

Nadine (Is It You?)
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



J'étais dans ton quartier pour essayer de te revoir
Mais lorque tu ma vus tu as changé de trottoir
Tu es rentrée chez toi et tu as fermé les rideaux
J'ai dormi sur un banc avec des frissons dans le dos

Nadine
Nadine où es-tu
Oh, Nadine
Nadine où es-tu
Oh, j'aimerais tellement te revoir
Mais comment te le faire savoir

Avec ma Cadillac je suis venu le lendemain
Sur ton vélo tu partais pour un rendez-vous lointain
J'aurais voulu t'accompagner seulement main dans la main
Je ne voulais pas voir celui qui serait le prochain

Nadine
Nadine où es-tu
Oh, Nadine
Nadine où es-tu
Oh, j'aimerais tellement te revoir
Mais comment te le faire savoir

Je t'ai envoyé les meilleurs copains pour te parler
En espérant qu'il pourraient enfin te décider
Tu les as tous renvoyé excepté mon seul ami
Que tu as gardé auprès de toi pendant toute la nuit

Nadine
Nadine où es-tu
Oh, Nadine
Nadine où es-tu
Oh, j'aimerais tellement te revoir
Mais comment te le faire savoir

J'ai passé mes jours mes nuits à essayer de te trouver
Je t'aime plus que moi et je veux te le prouver
Je mettrai ces paroles au milieu de ma chanson
Et tous les soirs sur la scène je hurlerai ton nom

Nadine
Nadine où es-tu
Oh, Nadine
Nadine où es-tu
Oh, j'aimerais tellement te revoir
Mais comment te le faire savoir

In A New York Minute


In A New York Minute
Composer(s): Michael Garvin; Tom Shapiro; Chris Waters
Performer(s): Ronnie McDowell



Ever since I've known you
You've belonged to someone else
So we've never talked about romance
But I think it's time I told you
The way I've always felt
And what I'd do if I got the chance

I'd make love to you in a New York minute
And take my Texas time doing it
I'd do you every way but wrong
I'd make love to you in a New York minute
And take my Texas time doing it
I'd prove to you that in my arms is where you belong

Don't misunderstand me
I wouldn't steal you from your man
But if he's ever fool enough to leave
Well you know how to reach me
And you know where I am
And you know what I'd do if you were free

I'd make love to you in a New York minute
And take my Texas time doing it
I'd do you every way but wrong
I'd make love to you in a New York minute
And take my Texas time doing it
I'd prove to you that in my arms is where you belong

Nadine


Nadine
Composer(s): Chuck Berry; Alan Freed
Performer(s): Chuck Berry;
and various other artists



I got on a city bus and found a vacant seat
I thought I saw my future bride walking up the street
I shouted to the driver hey conductor, you must slow down
I think I see her please let me off this bus

Nadine, honey is that you?
Oh, Nadine
Honey, is that you?
Seems like every time I see you Darling you got something else to do

[Alternate verse: Seems like every time I catch you
datcha you're up to something new]

I saw her from the corner when she turned and doubled back
And started walkin' toward a coffee colored cadillac
I was pushin' through the crowd to get to where she's at
And I was campaign shouting like a southern diplomat

Downtown searching for her, looking all around
Saw her getting in a yellow cab heading up town
I caught a loaded taxi, paid up everybody's tab
With a twenty dollar bill, told him 'catch that yellow cab'

She move around like a wave of summer breeze
go, driver, go, go, catch her balmy breeze
Moving thru the traffic like a mounted cavalier
Leaning out the taxi window trying to make her hear

In A Monastery Garden


In A Monastery Garden
Composer(s): Albert W. Ketèlbey
Performer(s): Peter Dawson
and multiple other artists



Through the misty twilight falling
Voices from afar are calling
Calling all the weary
Homeward to their rest

The evening bell is softly peeling
While from off the cloisters stealing
A sweet prayer of mercy
Peaceful and so blessed

I wandered alone in a strange land
And the night seemed so dark and drear
When the sound of a voice seemed to call me
And brought to my mind a memory dear

It told of the joy and the gladness
That comes from the one above
Oh Lord, hear our prayers, take away all our care
And fill our hearts with love

Joy will come again with morning
Travels fast, a cloud is forming
God is love and gives us
All eternal rest

Nadie me ama
Nadie me quiere
Nadie me llama
Nadie me es fiel

Triste es mi vida
Sin un cariño
Lloro en silencio
Mi desventura

Voy por el mundo cruel
De fracaso en fracaso
Llamo a la puerta del cielo
Que nunca traspaso

Vencido y cansado
De tanto sufrir
Yo ruego a Dios
Que se apiade de mí

Triste es mi vida
Lloro en silencio
Mi desventura

Voy por el mundo cruel
De fracaso en fracaso
Llamo a la puerta del cielo
Que nunca traspaso

Vencido y cansado
De tanto sufrir
Yo ruego a Dios
Que se apiade de mí

Nadie me ama
Nadie me quiere

In a mellow tone
Feelin' fancy free
And I'm not alone

Everything's ok

If you mope and groan
Something's gotta give
Just go your way
And laugh and play
You know there's joy unknown

You know there's joy unknown

Nadie Mas


Nadie Mas
Performer(s): Raphael



Nadie mas que en los ojos y en la tierra
Nadie mas en el valle o en la sierra
Eres para mi tan total
Que note que el mundo es algo más

El color en ti piel arrebolada
Y la luz es la luz de tu mirada
Que vacio si tu no estas
En mi mundo ya no hay nadie mas

Ya ves no me importaria
Que todos un dia huyeran de mi
Tu te quedas conmigo
Y tengo tu amor

¿Que mas puedo pedir?
¿Que mas puedo pedir?

La ciudad tiene muchos habitantes
Pero tu y yo somos amantes
Todo lo demas no existia
Ni antes ni despues de nuestro amor

Nadie mas que en los ojos y en la tierra
Nadie mas en el valle o en la sierra
Eres para mi tan total
Que note que el mundo es algo más

Ya ves no me importaria
Que todos un dia huyeran de mi
Tu te quedas conmigo
Y tengo tu amor

¿Que mas puedo pedir?
¿Que mas puedo pedir?
¿Que mas puedo pedir?

In A Mansion Stands My Love


In A Mansion Stands My Love
Composer(s): Johnny Russell
Performer(s): Jim Reeves
and multiple other artists



On a mountain stands a mansion so fine
And it looks down on this cabin of mine
I had a love and I loved her true
But along came a rich man and loved her too
Now, on a mountain, in a mansion stands my love

Well, he promised he'd buy her diamond rings
Yes, he promised fancy dresses and things
He promised everything indeed
But he can't buy the love that a poor heart needs
On a mountain in a mansion so fine

Now, I know that she's not happy there
And I know that she's got pain bad
My only dream is that some day
She'll come right back here and stay
In the cabin, in the valley, with me

On a mountain stands a mansion so fine
And it looks down on this cabin of mine
I had a love and I loved her true
But along came a rich man and loved her too
Now, on a mountain, in a mansion stands my love....
