Baby, Oh Where Can You Be?
Baby, Oh Where Can You Be?
Composer(s): Ted Koehler - Frank Magine
Performer(s): Fats Waller
and multiple other artists
Ev'rywhere I see a pair
Like lovebirds up in a tree
Baby, oh where can you be?
I need you
Moon above, it's time for love
For ev'rybody but me
Baby, oh where can you be?
It seems that each little breeze sighs through the trees
Tellin' me "Don't be blue"
Stars sympathize; guess they are wise
They kind of miss you, too
Nights like this don't hold much bliss
For one as lonely as me
Baby, oh where can you be?

Covered by multiple other artists
Versions In Other Languages:

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies my love
To the night and the empty skies
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth turn in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command
The first time ever I lay with you
And felt your heart beat close to mine
I thought our joy would fill the earth
And would last 'till the end of time my love
And would last 'till the end of time
The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies my love
To the night and the empty skies

Baby, Obey Me
Baby, Obey Me
Composer(s): Jay Livingston - Ray Evans
Performer(s): Dean Martin, Corinne Calvet, Jerry Lewis
(Dean)
From the boulevards of Paris to the corners of Siam
Lovers know they must behave, the very way that I am
Regardless of the language or the custom of the land
They all have the very same demand
When I say give me love, don't be meagre
Gee, can't you see I'm overeager
Oh baby, oh baby, obey me
And when my lonely arms need a build-up
Get in my arms and keep 'em filled up
Oh baby, oh baby, obey me
Facts are facts
While I'm mad about your caress
So relax, there's only one word for yes
My love just lives for you
Why be lonely, I want you for my one and only
Oh baby, oh baby, obey me do
(Corinne)
I'll take you through Paris, be your dolly
Oh what I'll show you in Pigalle
Oh baby, hey baby, obey me
(Dean)
I never like to kiss like the highbrows
I want the kind that curls my eyebrows
(Corinne)
Oh-ho, like this
(Dean)
Oh, baby
(Corinne)
You will be my gift from the Marshall Plan
(Jerry)
And I will be the king of the French Can-Can
(Corinne)
My sweet, when I do this, don't be gentle
I want you close and continental
Oh baby, je t'adore
Tu es un homme merveilleux, viens près d'moi
(Jerry)
I don't know what you're saying, but it should happen to me
(Dean)
Crêpes Suzettes
Why, that's all the French I know
(Corinne)
No my pet, you learn every word, but "No!"
(Dean)
The French are never wrong
(Corinne)
Fifty million
(Dean)
Baby for you I'd trust a billion
(Corinne)
Oh baby, oh baby, obey me
(Dean)
No maybe, hey baby, you slay me
(Both)
Oh baby, obey me do

Composer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Moi, j'avais peur toi, tu tremblais
Du fond du cœur tu m'appelais
Et cette nuit était pour toi
La première fois
Je découvrais un peu de toi
Du bout des yeux du bout des doigts
Ton premier cri ce fut mon nom
La première fois
On s'aimait tant
On s'est tout donné
Une femme était née
Dans mes bras pour moi
On se cherchait on se trouvait
On s'attendait on s'aimait
C'était bien plus que de l'amour
La première fois
On s'aimait tant
On s'est tout donné
Une femme était née
Dans mes bras pour moi
Je découvrais un peu de toi
Du bout des yeux du bout des doigts
Ton premier cri ce fut mon nom
La première fois

La Première Fille
La Première Fille
Composer(s): Georges Brassens
Performer(s): Georges Brassens
J'ai tout oublié des campagnes
D'Austerlitz et de Waterloo
D'Italie, de Prusse et d'Espagne
De Pontoise et de Landernau
Jamais de la vie
On ne l'oubliera
La première fille
Qu'on a pris dans ses bras
La première étrangère
À qui l'on a dit "tu"
Mon cœur, t'en souviens-tu?
Comme ell' nous était chère
Qu'ell' soit fille honnête
Ou fille de rien
Qu'elle soit pucelle
Ou qu'elle soit putain
On se souvient d'elle
On s'en souviendra
D'la premièr' fill'
Qu'on a pris dans ses bras
Ils sont partis à tire-d'aile
Mes souvenirs de la Suzon
Et ma mémoire est infidèle
À Julie, Rosette ou Lison
Jamais de la vie
On ne l'oubliera
La première fille
Qu'on a pris dans ses bras
C'était une bonne affaire
Mon cœur, t'en souviens-tu?
J'ai changé ma vertu
Contre une primevère
Qu'ce soit en grand' pompe
Comme les gens "bien"
Ou bien dans la rue
Comm' les pauvr's et les chiens
On se souvient d'elle
On s'en souviendra
D'la premièr' fill'
Qu'on a pris dans ses bras
Toi qui m'a donné le baptême
D'amour et de septième ciel
Moi, je te garde et, moi, je t'aime
Dernier cadeau du Pèr' Noël
Jamais de la vie
On ne l'oubliera
La première fille
Qu'on a pris dans ses bras
On a beau fair' le brave
Quand elle s'est mise nue
Mon cœur, t'en souviens-tu?
On n'en menait pas large
Bien d'autres, sans doute
Depuis sont venues
Oui, mais, entre tout's
Cell's qu'on a connues
Elle est la dernière
Que l'on oubliera
La premièr' fill'
Qu'on a pris dans ses bras

Baby It's Love
Baby It's Love
Composer(s): Buddy Holly - Bobby Montgomery
Performer(s): Buddy Holly
and multiple other artists
Sixty seconds of heavenly bliss
One minute of your sweet kiss
Then my heart was all a mess
It's love, baby, it's love
Sixty minutes of you in my arms
One hour to learn of all your charms
Then my heart's like a fire alarm
It's love, baby, it's love
Twelve hours of you to tantalize
One day for me to realize
My heart flutters like butterflies
It's love, baby, it's love
Seven days, a wedding to plan
One week and then I begin
My life of a happy married man
It's love, baby, it's love
Four weeks of quarrels and kisses
One month of fighting the missus
I'm wondering now what the heck that this is
It's love, baby, it's love

L'arcobaleno
L'arcobaleno
Composer(s): Mogol - Gianni Bella
Performer(s): Adriano Celentano
Io son partito poi così d'improvviso
che non ho avuto il tempo di salutare
istante breve ma ancora più breve
se c'è una luce che trafigge il tuo cuore
L'arcobaleno è il mio messaggio d'amore
può darsi un giorno ti riesca a toccare
con i colori si può cancellare
il più avvilente e desolante squallore
Son diventato se il tramonto di sera
e parlo come le foglie d'aprile
e vivrò dentro ad ogni voce sincera
e con gli uccelli vivo il canto sottile
e il mio discorso più bello e più denso
esprime con il silenzio il suo senso
Io quante cose non avevo capito
che sono chiare come stelle cadenti
e devo dirti che è un piacere infinito
portare queste mie valige pesanti
Mi manchi tanto amico caro davvero
e tante cose son rimaste da dire
ascolta sempre e solo musica vera
e cerca sempre se puoi di capire
Son diventato se il tramonto di sera
e parlo come le foglie d'aprile
e vivrò dentro ad ogni voce sincera
e con gli uccelli vivo il canto sottile
e il mio discorso più bello e più denso
esprime con il silenzio il suo senso
Mi manchi tanto amico caro davvero
e tante cose son rimaste da dire
ascolta sempre e solo musica vera
e cerca sempre se puoi di capire
ascolta sempre e solo musica vera
e cerca sempre se puoi di capire

La Première Femme De Ma Vie
La Première Femme De Ma Vie
Composer(s): Alain Goraguer - Claude Lemesle - Pierre Delanoë
Performer(s): Joe Dassin
La première femme de ma vie
Je ne l'ai pas vu tout de suite
Je n'ai vu qu'elle était petite
Qu'après avoir un peu grandi
Elle m'emmenait dans les musées
Quelques fois au concert Colonne
Où son gentil petit bonhomme
Faisait semblant de s'amuser
Elle chantait ma mère
Elle chantait souvent
Des chansons d'hier
Des chansons d'avant
La première femme de ma vie
Un jour m'a conduit à l'école
Emmitouflé dans un cache-col
Armé d'un cartable verni
J'ai connu les bons, les méchants
Les points sur les i, sur la gole
Il était quelques fois bien seul
Le deuxième homme de maman
Elle chantait ma mère
Elle chantait souvent
Des chansons d'hier
Des chansons d'avant
La première femme de ma vie
Je l'ai quittée pour être un homme
C'est toujours un matin d'automne
Que les enfants s'en vont du lit
C'est toujours un matin de pluie
C'est souvent pour une autre femme
Elle chantait ma mère
Elle chantait souvent
Des chansons d'hier
Des chansons d'avant

Baby It's Cold Outside
Baby It's Cold Outside
Composer(s): Frank Loesser
First performance/First recording: Esther Williams & Ricardo Montalbán - 1949/Dinah Shore & Buddy Clark - 1949
Covered by multiple other artists
I really can't stay - but baby it's cold outside
I've got to go away - but baby it's cold outside
This evening has been - Been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice - I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice
My mother will start to worry - Beautiful words you're humming
And father will be pacing the floor - Listen to the fireplace roar
So really I'd better scurry - Beautiful, please don't hurry
Well, maybe just a half a drink more - Put some records on while I pour
The neighbours might think - But baby it's bad out there
Say, what's in this drink? - No cabs to be had out there
I wish I knew how - Your eyes are like starlight now
To break the spell - I'll take your hat, your hairs looks swell
I ought to say no, no, no sir - Mind if I move in closer?
At least I'm gonna say that I tried - What's the sense of hurting my pride?
I really can't stay - Oh baby don't hold out
Ah but it's cold outside - Baby it's cold outside
I simply must go - But baby it's cold outside
The answer is no -But baby it's cold outside
The welcome has been - How lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm - Look out that window at that storm
My sister will be suspicious - God your lips look delicious
My brother will be there at the door - Waves upon a tropical shore
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious - Gosh your lips are delicious
Well, maybe just a cigarette more -Never such a blizzard before
I got to get home - But baby you'd freeze out there
Say, lend me a coat - It's up to your knees out there
You've really been grand - I'm thrilled when you touch my hand
Why don't you see - How can you do this thing to me?
There's bound to be talk tomorrow - Think of my lifelong sorrow
At least there will be plenty implied - If you caught pneumonia and died
I really can't stay - Get over that hold-out
Ah but it's cold outside - Ah but it's cold outside
(Only the man:)
Where could you be going
When the wind is blowing
And it's cold outside?
(Both:)
Baby it's cold, cold outside

La Première Étoile
La Première Étoile
Composer(s): Alix Pascal - Paul Mauriat
Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu
Si grand soit le monde, si loin que je sois
à chaque seconde, moi, je pense à toi
à ce coin de France où tu est resté
avec mon enfance et mes oliviers
Mais quand tout se voile, quand meurt le soleil
Il y a notre étoile là-haut dans le ciel
La première étoile qui se lèvera
La première étoile nous protégera
Dis-lui que tu m'aimes en la regardant
je dirai "je t'aime" à ce même instant
Elle est si fragile perdue dans le soir
pourtant elle brille comme notre espoir
À travers nos peines, par dessus les jours
elle dit que l'on s'aime comme au premier jour
La première étoile qui se lèvera
La première étoile nous protégera
Dis-lui que tu m'aimes et puis pense à moi
je ferai de même et tu m'entendras
te dire "je t'aime" au creux de tes bras
La première étoile nous portera bonheur
la première étoile, elle est là dans nos cœurs
dans nos cœurs, dans nos cœurs...

Do my best to keep you satisfied
Nothing in the world could drive me away
Every day you'll hear me say...
Baby I'm yours

And I'll be yours until two and two is Three
Yours until the mountain crumbles to the sea
In other words until eternity..
Baby I'm yours...
Till the stars fall from the sky
Baby I'm yours
Till the rivers all run dry
Baby I'm yours...

Sans me regarder elle fait non, non, non, non

Toute la journée elle fait non, non, non, non
Personne ne lui a appris
Qu'on pouvait dire oui
Non, non, non, non ...

She is like a doll, she says: 'No, no, no, no'
And though she likes to fall for me, she says: 'No, no, no, no'
She says: 'You are just a friend to me'
'You're no more than a friend to me'
She is like a doll who says: 'No, no, no, no'
And though she tries to fall for me, she says: 'No, no, no, no'
I know she tries to fall for me
And hopes that I won't see
Without even hearing, she says: 'No, no, no, no'
Without even looking, she says: 'No, no, no, no'
I know, I know she is afraid with me
Afraid she might say 'yes' to me
Yes, she is like the doll who says: 'No, no, no, no'
