Make My Day (T.G. Sheppard & Clint Eastwood)
Make My Day
Composer(s): DeWayne Blackwell
Performer(s): T.G. Sheppard & Clint Eastwood
Well it was going down
On the bad part of town
At an all-night grocery store
The old man there, his hands in the air
His customers on the floor
The hoods took all the money
And all of his hard earned pay
But then a tall man stepped in
With a cynical grin and said
(Eastwood: Go ahead, make my day)
Somewhere a girl's walkin' all alone
And now it's getting dark
She knows she'd better hurry home
So she cuts right through the park
She finds herself surrounded
Oh, she'll never get away
But then from behind a tree trunk, a voice said
(Eastwood: Punk, go ahead, make my day)
Oh, we love to hear him say
Go ahead and make my day
Smith Wesson and him just surrounded them
(Eastwood: Go ahead punk, make my day)
By mistake a couple walked into a bar
Where a motorcyle gang hanged out
They started coming on to his bride
And slapping him all about
They were buying drinks for the house
And using his money to pay. but it was
(Eastwood: Last call for alcohol)
(Eastwood: Go ahead, make my day)
Oh, we love to hear him say
Go ahead and make my day
He just stood in the door with a .44
(Eastwood: Go ahead punk, make my day)
So all you goons, you punks, you creeps
Who hide out in the night
Don't try to cop insanity
You better start doing things right
If you don't heed this warning
Then you better start learnin' to pray
That you never have to hear him whisper
(Eastwood: Go ahead, make my day)
Oh, we love to hear him say
Go ahead and make my day
Well, Smith and Wesson has taught 'em a lesson
(Eastwood: Go ahead punk, make my day)
Oh, we love to hear him say
Go ahead and make my day
He just fired his gun and then there were none
(Eastwood: Go ahead punk, make my day)
(Eastwood: No trial, no reports to file)
(Eastwood: Do you feel lucky, punk)
(Eastwood: A man's got to know his limitations, yeah)

[oh bello]
They come to dance
And find romance
In via Roma
In every bar
Sweet guitar
And sounds of laughter
I simply smiled
And raised a glass when she walked over
Then love began
She took my hand and said
"Let's dance"
We were sliding to the left
Bello Bello!
We were swaying to the right
Bello Bello
Oh my head was in a spin
Bello Bello
But I held her body tight
And then this bella bella signorina
With a smile so tender
She put a rythm in my feet
As we danced this crazy beat
Ooohhh my bella bella signorina
Baby I surrender
Can you teach me more tonight?
Or must I dance till mornin' light
We were sliding to the left
Bello Bello!
We were swaying to the right
Bello Bello
Oh my head was in a spin
Bello Bello
But I held her body tight
Uhhhh
A oh bello
It was by chance
And circumstance that I should meet her
Who would suspect
I Would be infected by her fever?
I raised my arms and shouted out
"La Dolce Vita!!"
Then once again
She took my hand
And said "let's dance"
We were sliding to the left
Bello Bello!
We were swaying to the right
Bello Bello
Oh my head was in a spin
Bello Bello
But I held her body tight
And then this bella bella signorina
Moved a 'lil closer
And she whispered
"Don't be shy.. you seem to be my
Kinda guy"
And I said bella bella signorina
I'm no Casanova
But I'm Italian through and through!
So lemme show you what we do!
We were sliding to the left
Bello Bello!
We were swaying to the right
Bello Bello
Oh my head was in a spin
Bello Bello
But I held her body tight
[Dialogue]
Basta Bella Ooo Managa Ragazza Ho Capito Agga Ok 'Sta Musica Ballooo!!!
To the left
Bello Bello
Ahh to the right
Bello Bello
Oh my head was in a spin
Bello Bello
But I held her body tight
Bello Bello
We were sliding to the left
Bello Bello
We were swaying to the right
Bello Bello
Oooohh my head was in a spin
Bello Bello
But I held her body tight
Bello Bello
Once again a lil slide
Bello Bello
Once again a lil spin
Bello Bello
And I kissed her on her cheek
Mwjah
As we danced the night away ...
Ahe he he

Wat Je Voelt
Wat Je Voelt
English Title: Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me)
Composer(s): Steve Harley; Peter Van Laet
Performer(s): Mama's Jasje
(Originally performed by: Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel)
Je deed het weer
Je breekt alweer mijn hart
Ik neem wel weer
Een nieuwe start
Jij brak de code
De regels van het spel
Want mij bedriegen kan je wel
Met die blauwe ogen
Heb je mij al
1000 maal belogen
Kom en vertel me
Wat je voelt
Doe al wat je wil
Als het moet
Al wat nog rest
Je gooit het overboord
Misschien hou je ooit
wel eens je woord
't is maar een test
een spel dat wordt gespeeld
win of verlies
jij kiest
jij deelt
liefste, liefste
alleen aan jezelf
vraag jij je niet uit
Kom en vertel me
Wat je voelt
Doe al wat je wil
Als het moet
Jij gunt me niets
Hield alles voor jezelf
Alleen mijn geloof
Dat hou ik wel
Wil jij nog meer
Je krijgt het als je wil
Bepaal maar de regels van het spel
Ga weg, ga weg
En zeg niet
Dat je ooit hebt geprobeerd
Kom en vertel me
Wat je voelt
Doe al wat je wil
Als het moet
Kom en vertel me
Wat je voelt
Doe al wat je wil
Als het moet
Kom en vertel me
Wat je voelt
Doe al wat je wil
Als het moet

Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me)
Make Me Smile (Come Up And See Me)
Dutch Title: Wat Je Voelt
Composer(s): Steve Harley
Originally performed by: Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel
Covered by various other artists
You've done it all, you've broken every code
And pulled the Rebel to the floor
You spoilt the game, no matter what you say
For only metal, what a bore
Blue eyes, blue eyes, how come you tell so many lies
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
There's nothing left, all gone and run away
Maybe you'll tarry for a while
It's just a test, a game for us to play
Win or lose, it's hard to smile
Resist, resist, it's from yourself you have to hide
Come up and see me, to make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
There ain't no more, you've taken everthing
From my belief in Mother Earth
How can you ignore my faith in everything
Coz I know what Faith is and what it's worth
Away, away, and don't say maybe you'll try
T'come up and see me, to make me smile
Or do what you want, just running wild
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild

Little Lies
Little Lies
Composer(s): Christine McVie - Eddie Quintela
First release by: Fleetwood Mac - 1987
If I could turn the page in time
Then I'd rearrange just a day or two
Close my, close my, close my eyes
But I couldn't find a way
So I'll settle for one day to believe in you
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
Although I'm not making plans
I hope that you understand there's a reason why
Close your, close your, close your eyes
No more broken hearts
We're better off apart let's give it a try
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
If I could turn the page in time
Then I'd rearrange just a day or two
Close my, close my, close my eyes
But I couldn't find a way
So I'll settle for one day to belive in you
Tell me, tell me, tell me lies
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can't disguise
(You can't disguise, no you can't disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies
(Tell me, tell me lies)

Make Me Smile
Make Me Smile
Composer(s): James Pankow
Performer(s): Chicago
Children play in the park, they don't know
I'm alone in the dark, even though
Time and time again I see your face smiling inside
I'm so happy
That you love me
Life is lovely
When you're near me
Tell me you will stay
Make me smile
Living life is just a game so they say
All the games we used to play fade away
We may now enjoy the dreams we shared so long ago
Oh my darling, got to have you. Feel the magic when I hold you
Cry sweet tears of joy, touch the sky
Now I need you more than ever
No more crying - we're together
Tell me you will stay
Make me smile

Little Kawai
Little Kawai
Composer(s): Walter Becker
Performer(s): Walter Becker
Here's a note from one Miss Turnbull
Certain homework was not done
Tiny holes in brand new windows
From an unknown BB gun
Cinder Annie and your Big Mommie
Say the facts all point to you
But they don't love you
Little Kawai
Not the way that I do
Not the way that I do
That new squirt gun
Eric got you
Don't you aim it over here
That's a mean song Eldon taught you
I no longer wish to hear
And where he says babies come from
This is not completely true
That's a tall one
Little Kawai
And those bad boys
They don't love you
Not the way that I do
In the morning in spite of everything
We'll go driving in our car
Straight to IHOP where it's well-known
The world's junkest pancakes are
Maple syrup on those french fries
They say it's no good for you
But you're still growing
Little Kawai
What do they know
Do they love you
Not the way that I do
Not the way that I do

Teach me to sigh, teach me to cry

Hold me in your arms
Thrill me till I’m filled with all your charms
For I want to love you, love
Till I’m afraid to
Take me, take me
Make me love you

Little Joe, The Wrangler
Little Joe, The Wrangler
Composer(s): Nathan Howard - Jack Thorp
Performer(s): Chris LeDoux
and multiple other artists
Little Joe the wrangler, he'll wrangle never more
His days with the remuda, they're all done
It was long about last April he rode into our camp
Just a little Texas stray and all alone
It was long late in the evening when he rode into our camp
On a little old brown pony he called Shaw
In his brogan shoes and coveralls, a harder lookin' kid
You never in you life have seen before
His saddle was a Sother kack built many years ago
An OK spur on one foot idly hung
With his bed roll in a cotton sack was loosely tied behind
And a canteen from the saddle horn he'd slung
Said he had to leave his home because his paw had married twice
His new maw beat him every day or two
So he saddled up old Shaw one night and lit a shuck this way
Thought he'd try and paddle now his own canoe
Said he'd try to do the best he could if we'd only give him work
Though he didn't know straight up about a cow
So the boss, he cut him out a mount and kinda put him on
And we knew he liked our little stray somehow
Well, he taught him how to heard the horses and learned to know 'em all
And to get 'em in by daylight if he could
And to follow the chuck wagon and to always hitch the team
And to help the carsonaro rustle wood
We had driven to Red River and the weather it was fine
We were camped down on the south side of the bend
When a Norther started blowin' we called the extra guard
'Cause it took all hands to hold the cattle in
Now little Joe the wrangler was called out like the rest
Barely had the kid got to the heard
When the cattle, they stampeded - like a hailstorm on they flew
With all of us a ridin' for the lead
Between the streaks of lightnin' we could see a horse ahead
It was little Joe the wrangler in the lead
He was riding old Blue Rocket with a slicker o'er his head
And he's trying to check the leaders in their speed
We finally got'em millin' and they sort of quieted down
The extra guard back to the camp did go
But one of them was missing and we all knew at a glance
'Twas our little Texas strayboy, wrangler Joe
We found him there at sun up where old Blue Rocket fell
In some washout twenty feet below
Beneath his horse smashed to a pulphis spur had rung the knell
For our little Texas stray bos, wrangler Joe
Little Joe the wrangler, he'll wrangle never more
His days with the remuda, they're all done
It was long about last April he rode into our camp
Just a little Texas stray and all alone

Make Me Know It (If You Mean What You Say)
Composer(s): Williams; Temple
Performer(s): Blanche Calloway
Make me know it, baby, I crave some action
Make me know it, baby, prove what you say
I want no fooling, and I don't mean maybe
I've had my fooling; I wasn't born today
Make me know it, baby, if you mean business
Make me know it, baby, and don't delay
I like your style, your smile, your pretty hair
But this don't get me anywhere
Make me know it if you mean just what you say
You claim that you love me true
And there's nothing you won't do
Now, sweet child, if you're sincere
Listen while I cuddle near
I've heard the sweet wind blow before
Had the wolf at my door
My brain isn't made of wood
I guess it's understood
Oh, baby, I crave some action
Oh, baby, prove what you say
I want no fooling, and I don't mean maybe
I've had my fooling; I wasn't born today
Baby, if you mean business
Baby, now don't delay
I like your style, your smile, your pretty hair
But this don't get me anywhere
Make me know it if you mean just what you say

Oh little Jeannie, you got so much love, little Jeannie
And you take it where it strikes and give it to the likes of me
Oh little Jeannie, she got so much love, little Jeannie
So I see you when I can, you make me all a man can be
And I want you to be my acrobat, I want you to be my lover
Oh there were others who would treat you cruel
And oh little Jeannie, you were always someone's fool
Little Jeannie, you got so much time, little Jeannie
Though you've grown beyond your years, you still retain the fears of
youth
Oh little Jeannie, you got so much time, little Jeannie
But you're burning it up so fast, searching for some lasting truth
And I want you to be my acrobat, I want you to be my lover
Oh there were others who would treat you cruel
But oh Jeannie, I will always be your fool
And I want you to be my acrobat, I want you to be my lover
Oh there were others, and I've known quite a few
But oh oh Jeannie, I'm still in love with you
Stepped into my life from a bad dream
Making the life that I had seem suddenly shiny and new
Oh Jeannie I'm so in love with you
Stepped into my life from a bad dream
