Nancy Whiskey


Nancy Whiskey
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Ian & Sylvia;
and various other artists



I'm a weaver, a Carlton Weaver
I'm a a rash and a-roving blade
I've got silver in my pockets
And I follow the roving trade

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy-O

As I went down through Glasgow city
Nancy whiskey I chanced to smell
I went in, sat down beside her
Seven long years I loved her well

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy-O

The more I kissed her, the more I loved her
The more I kissed her, the more she smiled
Soon I forgot my Mother's teaching
Nancy soon had me beguiled

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy-O

Now, I rose early in the morning
To slake my thirst, it was my need
I tried to rise, but I was not able
Nancy had me by the knees

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy-O

So I'm going back to the Carlton weaving
I'll surely make those shuttles fly
For I made more at the Carlton weaving
Than ever I did at the roving trade

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy-O

So come all you weavers, you Carlton weavers
Come all you weavers where e'er you be
Beware of Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey
She'll ruin you like she ruined me

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy-O

In Dear Old Dixie I Long To Be


In Dear Old Dixie I Long To Be
Composer(s): George Thomas Stoddard



When the evening shadows lengthen and the sun has gone to rest
And the stars begin to shed their tiny rays
Then my thoughts turn back to Dixie to the land I love best
And I seem to see the scenes of other days
I can see my dear old mother standing in the cottage door
Thro' her snow white hair the Southern breezes blow
But 'tis just a dream of boyhood of the days gone long before
In Dixie where the cotton blossoms grow

How often thro' the wildwood with my sweetheart by my side
We have stroll'd together whisp'ring words of love
For 'twas there that gentle Annie promised me she'd be my bride
While the silv'ry moon shone tho' the trees above
But those happy days have long since fled and I am sad and lone
My heart is sad and tears be dim my eyes
Now I want to lie in Southland when my sands of life are run
In Dixie where my gentle Annie lies

My dear old Dixie so dear to me
My dear old Southland I long to see
The birds sing sweeter in every tree
In dear old Dixie I long to be

Nancy Spain


Nancy Spain
Composer(s): Barney Rush
Performer(s): Christy Moore; Colcannon;
Noel McLoughlin; Bobby Murray; Mike Barrett



Of all the stars that ever shone
Not one does twinkle like your pale blue eyes
Like golden corn at harvest time your hair
Sailing in my boat the wind
Gently blows and fills my sail
Your sweet-scented breath is everywhere

Daylight peeping through the curtain
Of the passing night time is your smile
And the sun in the sky is like your laugh
Come back to me my Nancy
Linger for just a little while
Since you left these shores I've known no peace
Nor joy

Chorus:
No matter where I wander I'm still haunted
by your name
The portrait of your beauty stays the same
Standing by the ocean wondering where you've
gone, if you'll return again
Where is the ring I gave to Nancy Spain

On the day in Spring when snow starts to melt
And streams to flow
With the birds I'll sing this song
Then in the while I'll wander
Down by bluebell stream where wild flowers grow
And I'll hope that lovely Nancy will return

Chorus

In De Schaduw Van De Mijn


In De Schaduw Van De Mijn
Composer(s): Bobbejaan Schoepen
Performer(s): Bobbejaan Schoepen



Tot ziens, m'n beste vrienden
Elkaar zullen we vinden
Daaronder in het diepste van de mijn

De lift gaat naar beneden
Het daglicht is verdwenen
Ik ga waar het voor altijd nacht zal zijn

Maar kom ik thuis
Vind ik een wereld vol van zonneschijn
Bij vrouw en kinderen in m'n huisje klein
Daar te zijn, dat is fijn

Maar kom ik thuis
Zingt in m'n hart een wondermooi refrein
De grote rijkdom van tesaam te zijn
In de schaduw van de mijn

De kolenwagens rijen
We stutten galerijen
Eens hakken er houwelen in de nacht

De zwarte vuisten houwen
We ploeteren en we sjouwen
De ouwe trouwe meiland houdt de wacht

Maar kom ik thuis
Vind ik een wereld vol van zonneschijn
Bij vrouw en kinderen in m'n huisje klein
Daar te zijn, oh dat is fijn

Maar kom ik thuis
Zingt in m'n hart een wondermooi refrein
De grote rijkdom van tesaam te zijn
In de schaduw van de mijn, how hey hop

Ondanks alle gevaren
Delven wij lange jaren
Eens zwoegde er de vader, nu de zoon

't Lawaai dat gaat verloren
Bij hakken en bij boren
We werken in de mijnen voor ons loon

Maar kom ik thuis
Vind ik een wereld vol van zonneschijn
Bij vrouw en kinderen in m'n huisje klein
Daar te zijn, oh dat is fijn

Maar kom ik thuis
Zingt in m'n hart een wondermooi refrein
De grote rijkdom van tesaam te zijn
In de schaduw van de mijn

Nancy (Frank Sinatra)


Nancy
Composer(s): Phil Silvers; Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists



If I don't see her each day, I miss her
Gee what a thrill, each time I kiss her
Believe me, I've got a case
On Nancy, with the laughing face

She takes the winter and makes it summer
But summer could take some lessons from her
Picture a tomboy in lace
That's Nancy with the laughing face

Did you ever hear mission bells ringing
Well she'll give you the very same glow
When she speaks you would think it was singing
Just hear her say hello

I swear to goodness, you can't resist her
Sorry for you she has no sister
No angel could replace
Nancy, with the laughing face

(Orchestral Break)

Keep Betty Grable, Lamour, and Turner
She makes my heart a charcoal burner
It's heaven when I embrace
My Nancy with the laughin' face

In De Armen Van De Stad


In De Armen Van De Stad
Composer(s): Boudewijn de Groot; Bert Paige; Lennaert Nijgh
Performer(s): Liesbeth List & Ramses Shaffy



De stad schrijft haar naam aan de hemel
In neon en natrium licht
De stad is een kermis van kleur
De stad verandert steeds haar gezicht
Steeds een ander gezicht
Steeds opnieuw jouw gezicht, jouw gezicht

Ik beleef in deze uren
Steeds weer nieuwe avonturen

In de armen van de stad
In mijn armen
Kom, ik wacht al zoveel uren
Op het grote avontuur
En in jouw armen vind ik dat
De liefde kan niet altijd duren
In de armen van de stad
In de armen van de stad

De liefde is als regen op mijn huid
Maar mijn koel gevoel dat mij omsluit
Laten we gaan hier uit
Hier ver vandaan
Ver weg, samen met jou
Laten we gaan, laten we gaan, laten we gaan

De stad lokt met duizenden stemmen
Van mensen alleen in de nacht
De stad zingt een lied met hun woorden
Er is altijd weer een ander die wacht
Steeds een ander die wacht
Steeds ben ik het die wacht
Op jou wacht

Ik wil verder gaan en dwalen
Door steeds andere verhalen
In de armen van de stad
In mijn armen
Ik wil nachtenlang verdwalen
In de stad van jouw verhalen
In jouw armen wil ik dat
Ik wil altijd verder dwalen
In de armen van de stad
In de armen van de stad

De ochtend glijdt stil over me heen
De lucht wordt wit en wijd
Ik ben alleen, waar ben jij?
Waar waarheen, jij bleef toch daar In de stad, ik blijf alleen
Jij blijft bij haar
Ik blijf alleen
Jij blijft bij haar

Alle klokken kan ik horen
Als haar hartslag in mijn oren
In de armen van de stad
In haar armen
Hier ben ik opnieuw geboren
Heb ik jou voorgoed verloren
In de armen van de stad
In de armen van de stad

Nancy


Nancy
Composer(s): C. Jérôme; Sforza; Noritop



Café des Sports, deux diabolos pour un je t'aime
J'y pense encore, quand mon cœur bat par la Lorraine Américaine
Avec tes couettes toute une époque "Let's twist again"
Dans tes yeux bleus c'était l'Amérique à Nancy
Dans tes cheveux cinquante étoiles brillaient la nuit
Hello ! Nan-cy tu te souviens de ce jour là
Il faisait gris quand j'suis parti là-bas

[Refrain:]
Nan-cy ou Nancy c'est du pareil au même
Les rues de ma vie sonnent à l'américaine
Nan-cy ou Nancy c'est le même parfum
Dans ma tête aujourd'hui vous ne formez plus qu'un
Nan-cy ou Nancy c'était l'adolescence
Des jeux interdits qui rejouent en silence
Nan-cy ou Nancy c'est le même sourire
Images au ralenti qui font des souvenirs

A Stanislas les mirabelles sont en retard
Sur cette place parfois tu crois m'apercevoir
Dans ce décor, si je reviens fais-moi "Hello"
Café des Sports, couleur de diabolo

[au Refrain]

Nan-cy ou Nancy c'était l'adolescense
Des jeux interdits qui rejouent en silence
Nan-cy ou Nancy c'est le même sourire
Images au ralenti qui font des souvenirs

In Cefalu


In Cefalu
Performer(s): Jimmy Frey



Lalalala …..

Wordt je de grauwe lucht weer langzaam moe
Neem dan de eerste vlucht naar Cefalu
Daar is de zon en zee je rendez-vous
Dus neem bijna niets mee naar Cefalu

Lalalala …..

't Is feestdag iedere dag in Cefalu
Daar bijna alles mag in Cefalu
Maar trap op niemands voet want af en toe
Hoor ik de Spaanse vloek in Cefalu

Lalalala …..

Meisjes gaan half gekleed, doet er niet toe
Want het is stikkend heet in Cefalu
Maar voor je er een ontmoet, spreek met haar moe
De nacht is kort en goed in Cefalu

Lalalala …..

Nana Al Rey Que Se Muere


Nana Al Rey Que Se Muere
Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



El rey se muere, ya se muere el rey
La reina se arrodilla junto a él
y su hijo, el sucesor
junto al lecho del dolor
contiene su emoción

La corte observa con gran frialdad
la muerte lenta de su majestad
Entre el llanto y la oración
logra alzar el rey su voz
para el postrer adiós

Y tras los óleos de la extremaunción
al fin expira su último estertor
y comienzan a tocar
a difunto las campanas
de la catedral

El rey a muerto, viva, viva el rey
La misma corte aclama al nuevo rey
Todo se repetirá
el rey ha muerto, perro puesto
con otro collar

In Any Language


In Any Language
Composer(s): Mack Gordon; Harry Revel
Performer(s): Midge Williams



Whether it's a serenade in Spain
Whether it's a love song by the Seine
In any language they're saying the same "I love you"
Whether it's a Russian refrain or
If it's "bei mir bist du schön"
In any language they're saying the same "I love you"
In any clime with any rhyme
What do the lips of lovers impart
There is no other tongue
Love is the mother tongue of each and every heart
Out on a Venetian blue lagoon
Or beneath a yankee doodle moon
In any language they're saying the same "I love you"

El niño malo dijo
me gusta el “Ché”
y ha dado a su abuelita
un puntapié
ha roto 7 vasos
3 cacerolas
y llamó Dª Carmen
vieja cotorra
Ea la nana ea
El niño malo tiene en la cocina
asesinado al coco
sobre una silla
Pajareando anda el niño malo
y ha pedido una novia
a los Reyes Magos
Ea la nana ea
¿Qué sería de mayor el pequeñito?
Su padre que teniente
Su madre Obispo
el abuelo ingeniero
la abuelita abogado
y el niño malo dijo
“quiero ser vago”
Ea la nana, ea

In And Out Of Love


In And Out Of Love
Composer(s): Brian Holland; Edward Jr. Holland; Lamont Dozier
Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes



Keep falling in and out of love
In search for what I'm dreaming of
I long to find a love I'm sure about
That certain kind of love that moves all doubts

Keep falling in and out of love
Still searching for that special one
To whom I can give my love completely
And feel a lasting love so sweetly

Just when I feel sure love's here to stay
It seems to suddenly just fade away
Can't seem to find that everlasting love
That this heart of mine needs so much of

Keep falling in and out of love
Can't seem to find the lasting kind
It seems I can't find the joy I need
Love always somehow all goes wrong for me

Keep falling in and out of love
Keep falling in and out of love
I keep reaching out for tenderness
Touching a hand that holds emptiness

I'm looking for a love that lingers on
Long after that first kiss is gone
That kind of love that keeps burning bright
Long after we've said goodnight

Keep falling in and out of love
In search for what I'm dreaming of
Keep falling in and out of love...

Nana De La Aurora
Composer(s): María D. Ostiz
Performer(s): Raphael



¿A donde vas aurora?
A donde vas ire
Voy por el agua clara del rio
Con ella bebere

Y dame tu pañuelo
Tu me lo quieres dar
Soy como el agua clara del rio
Por ti quiero volar

¿A donde vas aurora mia?
Donde tu voz me llama
La cuna que te mecia
Ya no te canta mi nana
Que murio cuando nacias

¿A donde vas aurora?
A donde vas ire
Bajo el sendero negro del rio
Con el yo vivire

Y dame tu vestido
Tu me lo quieres dar
Soy como el agua clara del rio
Por ti quiero soñar

¿A donde vas aurora mia?
Donde tu voz me llama
La noche que te dormia
No besara tu mañana
Que murio cuando nacias

In And Around Nashville


In And Around Nashville
Performer(s): Uncle Dave Macon
and multiple other artists



Well you know I live with my mother-in-law's daughter, forty-two
miles from Nashville and I've been in and around Nashville, in and out

Oh, the girls are all sweet in Nashville
Oh, the girls are all sweet in Nashville
Oh, the girls are all sweet, and they dress up so neat
But they've got such great big feet in Nashville

Oh, the men chew tobacco thin in Nashville
Oh, the men chew tobacco thin in Nashville
They chew tobacco thin and it runs down on their chin
But they lick it in again in Nashville

Oh the girls dress knee-high in Nashville
Oh the girls dress knee-high in Nashville
Oh the girls dress knee-high and as they go walking bye
Oh, they make the old men cry in Nashville

If you want to get a drink in Nashville
If you want to get a drink in Nashville
If you want to get a drink give a Democrat the wink
And you'll get it fore you think in Nashville

Well Hoover was elected from Nashville
Well Hoover was elected from Nashville
Hoover was elected, Al Smith, he was rejected
But he's very highly respected 'round Nashville

Oh they grow potatoes small around Nashville
Oh they grow potatoes small around Nashville
Oh they grow potatoes small and they dig 'em in the Fall
And they eat 'em skin and all, around Nashville

Nana A Una Niña Fría


Nana A Una Niña Fría
Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



Una niña fría se desnuda
los espejos se derriten como velas
y su madre pura la castiga
vuelan calcetines junto a las estrellas
ella quiere que la bañe el río
cada vez que lo descubre tras la puerta
se perfuma de impaciente sangre
un olor que no conocen las muñecas

Una niña fría se desnuda
las lechuzas dicen que no han visto nada
juguetea con lápiz de labios
y se abraza a la ternura de la almohada
viene el diablo con flores y vino
ella se complace con sus artimañas
duerme, niña, que seré tu amante
y el infierno es dulce como una manzana

In An Old Dutch Garden (By An Old Dutch Mill)
Composer(s): Mack Gordon; Will Grosz
Performer(s): Eddy Howard
and multiple other artists



In an old Dutch garden by an old Dutch mill
Where the moon was dreaming on a distant hill
When a smile danced by, it was then that I saw
Heaven in a pair of wooden shoes

In an old Dutch garden where the tulips grow
That's where first I whispered that I love you so
For my heart was blue till I gave it to
An angel in a pair of wooden shoes

Then one sad day when summer meets September
I sailed away from a thrill I will remember

In an old Dutch garden by an old Dutch mill
Ev'ry day I pray that you are waiting still
For my heart will yearn until I return
To heaven in a pair of wooden shoes

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

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
