Bang Shang-A-Lang
Bang Shang-A-Lang
Composer(s): Jeff Barry
Performer(s): The Archies
I recall just walking down the street
Tryin' to escape the city heat
I saw her from the corner of my eye, eye, eye
Yeah she looked so good I thought I'd die
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
Somethin' said I shouldn't waste no time
If I'm ever gonna make her mine
I walked right up and said how do you do, do, do
She said, "I'll bet I do as good as you"
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
I remember when I held her tight
(Bang shang a-lang)
Felt like holdin' dynamite now
(Bang shang a-lang)
What's that ringin' in my ear?
(Bang shang a-lang)
Tell me ain't those bells I hear?
(Bang shang a-lang)
Bang bang (shang a lang)
Bang bang (shang a lang)
Bang bang bang (shang a lang lang)
Bang bang bang (shang a lang lang)
Now she's gonna spend her life with me
And we'll be as happy as can be
Because I love her more than I can tell, tell, tell
Sunday afternoon we'll hear the bells
And they'll go
Bang shang a lang
Bang shang a lang
Bang shang a lang, bang bang
Oh they'll go
Bang shang a lang
Bang shang a lang
Bang shang a lang, bang bang
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang
My heart went bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang
Bang shang a-lang, bang bang

Rachel
Composer(s): T. Lavello - M. Pressman
Performer(s): Al Martino
Rachel, oh Rachel
I should have known
You were never my own
But I love you
Oh how I love you!
Rachel, oh Rachel
Hands soft and white
But a soul black as night!
Yet I love you
Oh how I love you!
You take the heart of a man
When he's a slave to your charms
Laugh and enjoy him
Slowly destroy him
And dance, dance, dance, right out of his arms!
Rachel, oh Rachel
What evil star
Led you here from afar
To love me
Only to leave me
Leave me alone?
(Rachel, oh Rachel)
Oh Rachel
Hands soft and white
But a soul black as night!
Yet I love you
Oh how I love you!
You take the heart of a man
When he's a slave to your charms
Laugh and enjoy him
Slowly destroy him
And dance, dance, dance, right out of his arms!
Rachel, oh Rachel
What evil star
Led you here from afar
To love me
Only to leave me
Leave me alone?

Bang The Drum All Day
Bang The Drum All Day
Composer(s): Todd Rundgren
First release by: Todd Rundgren - 1983
Covered by multiple other artists
I don't want to work
I wan' bang on the drum all day
I don't want to play
I just want to bang on the drum all day
Ever since I was a tiny boy
I don't want no candy
I don't need no toy
I took a stick and an old coffee can
I pound on that thing 'till I got
Blisters on my hand because
When I get older they think I'm a fool
The teacher told me I should stay after school
She caught me pounding on the desk with my hands
But my licks was so hot
I made the teacher wanna dance
And that's why
Every day when I get home from work
I feel frustrated
The boss is a jerk
And I get my sticks and go out to the shed
And I pound on the drum
like it was the boss's head because

Rusty Hinge
Rusty Hinge
Composer(s): Lew Brown
Performer(s): Louis Jordan & Chick Webb
Rusty hinge on the bench
Never satisfied with what I've got
I'm a good for nothin' rusty hinge
Always cringe!
I'll be drinkin' my corn
Till Gabriel blows his horn!
That music gets me swinging
Maybe I don't know
What it means to swing
Baby, I don't care
When I open my mouth and start to swing!
Rusty hinge on a bench
Never satisfied with what I've got
I'm a good for nothin' rusty hinge!

I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
Seasons came and changed the time
And I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?"
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
Now he's gone, I don't know why
And till this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down

This Guitar Is For Sale
This Guitar Is For Sale
Composer(s): Shel Silverstein - Fred Koller
First release by: Bobby Bare - 1978
This guitar is for sale, I'll let her go cheap
She's pretty to look at but she don't earn her keep
She can roar like the west wind, she can weep, she can wail
But the tunes that she plays just ain't sellin' today
This guitar is for sale.
She lay close beside me on cold winter nights
She's got me in trouble and she won me some fights
We both come out all right
She knows all the sad songs that Hank ever wrote
Just touch her once gently and she'll take you on home
She'll tell you some stories 'bout junk yards and jails
And a fool with a song and a dream that went wrong
This guitar is for sale.
She's rode cross this country on freight trains and trucks
On 'round pawnshop windows when we're down on our luck
We been down on our luck
So please treat her kind, keep her out of the rain
It's funny you're askin', I never gave her a name
But if you say she looks weary, you been readin' our mail
So if you got the dough buddy take her and go
This guitar is for sale.
She's won me some ladies with her sweet lovin' songs
And she's stuck right here with me when the ladies were gone
And the ladies are gone
But hard times and trouble been doggin' our tail
So if you got the dough buddy take her and go
This guitar is for sale...

Nous avions dix ans à peine
Tous nos jeux étaient les mêmes
Aux gendarmes et aux voleurs
Tu me visais droit au cœur
Bang bang, tu me tuais
Bang bang, et je tombais
Bang bang, et ce bruit-là
Bang bang, je ne l'oublierai pas
Nous avons grandi ensemble
On s'aimait bien il me semble
Mais tu n'avais de passion
Que pour tes jeux de garçon
Bang bang, tu t'amusais
Bang bang, je te suivais
Bang bang, et ce bruit-là
Bang bang, je ne l'oublierai pas
Un jour tu as eu vingt ans
Il y avait déjà longtemps
Que l'amour avait remplacé
Notre amitié du passé
Et quand il en vint une autre
On ne sait à qui la faute
Tu ne m'avais jamais menti
Avec elle tu es parti
Bang bang, tu m'as quittée
Bang bang, je suis restée
Bang bang, et ce bruit-là
Bang bang, je ne l'oublierai pas
Quand j'aperçois des enfants
Se poursuivre en s'amusant
Et faire semblant de se tuer
Je me sens le cœur serré
Bang bang, je me souviens
Bang bang, tout me revient
Bang bang, et ce bruit-là
Bang bang, je ne l'oublierai pas

Troubadour Song
Troubadour Song
Composer(s): Louis Pippa
Performer(s): Burl Ives
Do you happen to know of a maiden in need
Of a sweetheart? Here's one who is anxious to plead
It's a shame that a handsome young fellow like me
Should be left while the nightingale sings in the tree
It's a shame that a handsome young fellow like me
Should be left while the nightingale sings in the tree
In the wood and the meadow, beneath the bright moon
Every lad with his lass makes the most of the June
The world's gone a-wooing, excepting of me
While the nightingale sings to his mate in the tree
The world's gone a-wooing, excepting of me
While the nightingale sings to his mate in the tree
The time, it is short, there is none I can spare
For the nightingale's song will soon die in the air
Don't you think, dearest Phyllis, you'd better agree
To make love while the nightingale sings in the tree?
Don't you think, dearest Phyllis, you'd better agree
To make love while the nightingale sings in the tree?

Der Junge Mit Der Mundharmonika
Der Junge Mit Der Mundharmonika
Performer(s): Christian Anders
Da war ein Traum, der so alt ist, wie die Welt
Und der ihn traeumt, hoert ihm zu, der ihn erzaehlt
Der Junge mit der Mundharmonika
singt von dem, was einst geschah
in silbernen Traeumen
von der Barke mit der glaesernen Fracht
die in sternenklarer Nacht
Deiner Traurigkeit entflieht
Du hoerst sein Lied und ein Engel steht im Raum
Dann weißt du nicht, ist es Wahrheit oder Traum
Der Junge mit der Mundharmonika
singt von dem, was einst geschah
in silbernen Traeumen
von der Barke mit der glaesernen Fracht
die in sternenklarer Nacht
Deiner Traurigkeit entflieht
Der Junge mit der Mundharmonika
singt von dem, was einst geschah
in silbernen Traeumen
von der Barke mit der glaesernen Fracht
die in sternenklarer Nacht
Deiner Traurigkeit entflieht

First release by: Roxy Music - 1972
You've got me girl on the run around run around
You've got me all around town
You've got me girl on the run around
And it's getting me down, getting me down
Lady if you want to find a lover
Then you look no further
For I'm gonna be your only
Searching at the start of the season
And my only reason
Is that I´ll get to you
I´ll find some way of connection
Hiding my intention
Then I´ll move up close to you
I´ll use you and I´ll confuse you
And then I´ll lose you
Still you won't suspect me

Lady-O
Performer(s): The Turtles
While you sit and seek a crescent moon is laying
At your feet
With hope that's made of sand
It don't think you can
But you have held it all in your hands
I've been trying hard to keep from needing you
But from the start
My heart just rolled and flowed
I've seen where it goes
Still somehow my love for you grows, Lady-0
So on my heels I'll grow wings
Gonna ride silver strings
But I'll see you in my holiest dreams, Lady-0
(repeat chorus)
I've been trying hard to keep from needing you
But from the start
My heart just rolled and flowed
I've seen where it goes
Still somehow my love for you grows, Lady-O
So on my heels I'll grow wings
Gonna ride silver strings
But I'll see you in my holiest dreams, Lady-O

Ladybug
Composer(s): James Stein
Performer(s): Captain & Tenille; Anne Murray
Don't disturb the ladybug
Sleepin' by the spider's web
And if you see a butterfly
Don't try to catch it in your net
It's taken such a long long time
To make this very special place
Open up your soul and mind
To all it has to say
Be still
Take it in awhile
Feel the sunshine
Warm upon your face
You'll feel
When it makes you smile
Like you're welcome
To the human race
Everybody sees a part
Of what this life can really be
No one sees like you can see
When you let your mind be free
The wind is blowing through the trees
A song that everyone can learn
God is playing hide and seek
Everywhere you turn
Be still
Take it in awhile
Feel the sunshine
Warm upon your face
You'll feel
When it makes you smile
Like you're welcome
To the human race

Maar wacht toch niet meer

Was ik gebleven, ik zou je ongelukkig maken

Lady writer on the TV
Talk about the Virgin Mary
Reminded me of you
Expectation left a come on too
Lady writer on the TV
She had another quality
The way you used to look
And I know you never read a book
Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
And I recall my fall from grace
Another time another place
Lady writer on the TV
She had all her brains and the beauty
The pictures does not fit
You'd talk to me when you felt like this
Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
And I recall my fall from grace
Another time another place
Your rich old man
You know he'd a call her a dead wringer
You got the same command
Plus your mother was a mess in life
Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
And I recall my fall from grace
Another time another place
Lady writer on the TV
She knew all about history
You couldn't hardly write your name
I think I want it just the same
Lady writer on the TV
Talking about the Virgin Mary
You know I'm talking about you and me
