Love Is All (Air Supply)
Love Is All
Composer(s): Graham Russell
Performer(s): Air Supply
When we come into this world
And we hunger for the touch
From the one that brought us life
From the one that gave so much
Innocence will take your hand
And speak through the one thought in your mind
Don't you know that love is all
Love is where we all begin
And when we knock on heaven's door
Only love will let us in
And as we gather to ourselves
A part of everything we see
We realize that what we own
Isn't what we really need
Innocence take my hand
And speak through the one thought in your mind
Don't you know that love is all
Love is where we all begin
Love is all that we must do
It is the reason why we live
Love is all I have for you
True love cannot be broken
Through all the tears of pain
Only one truth survives
Only one truth remains

I have a little red rooster, too lazy to crow for day
I have a little red rooster, too lazy to crow for day
Keep everything in the barnyard, upset in every way
Oh the dogs begin to bark, and the hound begin to howl
Oh the dogs begin to bark, hound begin to howl
Ooh watch out strange kind people
Cause little red rooster is on the prowl
If you see my little red rooster, please drag him home
If you see my little red rooster, please drag him home
There ain't no peace in the barnyard
Since the little red rooster been gone

Love Is Alive (The Judds)
Love Is Alive
Composer(s): Kent Robbins
Performer(s): The Judds
Love ain't a candle
It doesn't burn for one night
And need the dark to shine
Love is alive
And love ain't just a word
In every dictionary
With no where defined
Love is a man and he's mine
Love is alive
And at our breakfast table
Everyday of the week
Love is alive
And it grows everyday and night
Even in our sleep
Love is alive
And it's made a happy woman out of me
Oh, love is alive
And here by me
Love ain't just a mood
A distant far away dream
That needs the night to rise
Love is alive
And love ain't just a song
Sweet words of music
To go dancin' by
Love is a man and he's mine
Love is alive
And at our breakfast table
Everyday of the week
Love is alive, here by me
Love is alive
And at our breakfast table
Everyday of the week ...

Little Sadie
Little Sadie ((aka Transfusion Blues (by Johnny Cash) - 1960; Cocaine Blues (by George Thorogood & The Destroyers) - 1978))
(Traditional)
First release by: Hedy West - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists
Went out last night, had a look around
I met little Sadie and I blowed her down
I ran right home and went to bed
With a 45 smokeless under my head
I began to think what a deed I'd done
So I grabbed my hat and away I run
I made a good run but I ran too slow
They overtook me down in Jericho
Standing on the corner ringing my bell
When up stepped the sheriff of Thomasville
He said young man, is your name Brown?
Are you the man that blowed little Sadie down?
Oh yes sir my name is Lee
I murdered little Sadie in first degree
First degree, second degree
You got any papers will you send them to me?
Took me downtown and they dressed me in black
They put me on a train and they brought me back
Had no-one to go my bail
So they crammed me back into the county jail
The judge and jury took their stand
The judge had the papers in his hand
41 days and 41 nights
And 41 years to wear the ball and stripes

Love Is Alive (Gary Wright)
Love Is Alive
Composer(s): Gary Wright
First release by: Gary Wright - 1975
Covered by multiple other artists
Well I think it's time to get ready
To relax just what I have found
I have lived only half of what I am
All clear to me now
My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turnin'
You love is alive, my love is alive
Three's something inside
That's making me crazy
I'll try to keep it together
'Cause what I say may not happen the same way
Now could be forever
My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turnin'
You love is alive, my love is alive
There's a mirror moving inside my mind
Reflecting the love that you shine on me
Hold on now to that feeling
Let it flow, let it grow
My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turnin'
You love is alive, my love is alive

Little Sally One Shoe
Little Sally One Shoe
Composer(s): J. Fred Coots - Jack Winters
Performer(s): Rosemary Clooney
Pretty little Sally
You're 6 years old today
And it's time you paid attention
To what I have to say
Little Sally One Shoe that's your name
Always losing one shoe, what a shame
Don't you know that people watch your feet
When you walk along the street
Little Sally One Shoe, you've been told
When you take your shoes off you catch cold
Mommy makes you stay in bed all day
And you can't go out to play
Your cat and your doggie
Wear no shoes because
Your cat and your doggie
Don't need shoes for their paws
So when you get your new shoes, black or white
Keep your pretty new shoes shiny bright
Little Sally One Shoe, don't go losing one shoe
Maybe keep your two shoes on
Your cat and your doggie
Wear no shoes because
Your cat and your doggie
Don't need shoes for their paws
So when you get your new shoes, black or white
Keep your pretty new shoes shiny bright
Little Sally One Shoe, don't go losing one shoe
Learn to keep your two shoes on

Love Is A Simple Thing
Love Is A Simple Thing
Composer(s): June Carroll - Arthur Siegel
Performer(s): Debbie Reynolds
Poets write fancy things about love
But they don't have no call
Love is like birth or death or taxes
Love just is, that's all
Love is a simple thing, love is a silver ring
Shiny as a ribbon bow, soft as a quiet snow
Love is a nursery rhyme, old as the tick of time
Love is so many things, bright as an angel's wings
Gentle as the morning light, long as a winter night
Love makes an old heart sing
And it fills ev'ry empty space, love is a warming place
Love is a simple thing
Love is a simple thing, love is a magic ring
Much more fun than mistletoe, gay as a puppet show
Love is the thunder and rain, swift as a soaring plane
Love is a summer moon, gay as a big balloon
Young as a calliope, wild as a storm at sea
Love is a touch of spring
It's as sweet as a first embrace, love is a special place
Love is a simple thing

Weepin' and a-moanin' like a turtle dove

Love Is A Rose
Composer(s): Neil Young
First release by: Linda Ronstadt - 1975
Covered by multiple other artists
Love is a rose but you better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine
I wanna see what's never been seen
I wanna live that age-old dream
Come on boy let's go together
Let's take the best right now
Love is a rose but you better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine
I wanna go to an old hoedown
Long ago in a western town
Pick me up 'cause my feet are dragging
Give me a lift and I'll hay your wagon
Love is a rose but you better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine
Love is a rose but you better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine
Mine
Love is a rose

Love Is A Many Splendored Thing
Love Is A Many Splendored Thing
((Spanish Version: El Amor Es Algo Maravilloso (Raphael))
Composer(s): Paul Frances Webster - Sammy Fain
Performer(s): The Four Aces - 1955
and multiple other artists
Love is a many splendored thing
It's the April rose that only grows in the early spring
Love is nature's way of giving a reason to be living
The golden crown that makes a man a king
Once on a high and windy hill
In the morning mist two lovers kissed and the world stood still
Then your fingers touched my silent heart and taught it how to sing
Yes, true love's a many splendored thing
Once on a high and windy hill
In the morning mist two lovers kissed and the world stood still
Then your fingers touched my silent heart and taught it how to sing
Yes, true love's a many splendored thing

Little Serenade
Little Serenade
((French & Italian Versions: Du Moment Qu'on S'aime (Dalida); Piccolissima Serenata (Teddy Reno) - 1957))
Composer(s): Antonio Amurri - Gianni Ferrio - Geoffrey Parsons - John Turner
Performer(s): Eddie Calvert
and multiple other artists
Just a little street down in Portofino
Just a little tune that is softly played
Just a boy in love, with a mandolino
Just a little moonlight, little serenade
Just a little song he can win her heart with
Telling of a love that will never fade
Many a romance has been known to start with
Just a little moonlight, little serenade
Happy is the boy when he looks up above
And he sees that her window is open wide
Happy is the boy when she throws a carnation
With an invitation to come inside
Just a boy and girl and a mandolino
Just a little kiss as the vow is made
That's the way it is down in Portofino
Just a little moonlight, little serenade

Goodbye Of The Year
Goodbye Of The Year
Composer(s): Dallas Frazier - Arthur Leo Owens
Performer(s): Jerry Lee Lewis; Darrell McCall
I can't feel the world between us even though
you're by my side
So close and yet so far away to hear me say goodnight
Your lonely eyes have told me the way you feel inside
You could never say goodbye any plainer if you try
Congratulation baby for the goodbye of the year
You were gone before I had a chance to dry your tears
To show my admiration I think it's only fair
To say congratulation for the goodbye of the year
To show my admiration I think it's only fair
To say congratulation for the goodbye of the year

Little Ship
Little Ship
Composer(s): Loudon Wainwright III
Performer(s): Loudon Wainwright III
Our relationship
Is just a little ship
That's out on a stormy sea
We barely keep afloat
In our leaky boat
But still I'm hoping
That you'll dote on me
When we first set sail
We thought we'd never fail
The wind was our best friend
It wouldn't let us down
But then the tempest grew
And I thought I'd lost you
And our little ship
Would sink or run aground
But the precious craft
Was sturdy fore and aft
It rolled on a stormy sea
And when the winds died down
That's when I looked around
You and the sun were all that I could see
And then a gentle wind
Bore us home again
I sat in the stern
You were in the bow
We landed safe and sound
And there on solid ground
We loved our little ship
Even more somehow
Our relationship
Is just a little ship
That's out on a stormy sea

Love Is A Hurtin' Thing
Love Is A Hurtin' Thing
Composer(s): Ben Raleigh - Dave Linden
Performer(s): Lou Rawls
and multiple other artists
For every little kiss there's a little teardrop
For every single thrill there's another heartache
The road is rough
The going gets tough
(Yes) love is a hurtin' thing
Oh, love is a hurtin' thing
When you're in my arms I'm a king on a throne
But when we're apart I walk the streets alone
One day happiness
The next day, loneliness
When love brings so much joy why must it bring such pain
Guess it's a mystery that nobody can explain
Maybe I'm a fool to keep on loving you
'Cause there may come a time you'll break my heart in two
But I want you so
I want you though I know that
Love

Love Is A Golden Ring
Love Is A Golden Ring
Composer(s): Frank Miller - Richard Dehr - Terry Gilkyson
Performer(s): Frankie Laine
Your love and mine, dear, It will shine, dear
Just like that golden ring on your finger
Love isn't just for tonight
Or two arms that hold me so tight
Love is a song that two must learn to sing
Love is a golden ring
Love's not a summer romance
Or the kiss that follows the dance
Love is forever a rare and lasting thing
Love is a golden ring
A wedding in the church
The happiness and tears
The little ring you'll wear
Will last through all the years
And in our golden days
We'll find eternal spring
With love and the golden ring
So please won't you wear it for me
With faith and sweet charity
For lonely lovers lost
This message we will bring
Love is a golden ring
Love is a golden ring
Love is a golden ring
Love

Petite sœur d'amour
Pour toi, je suis simplement un copain
À qui l'on tend la main
Petite sœur d'amour
Pourras-tu m'aimer un jour?
Ouais, l'amour a débuté
Voici bien des années
Nous étions deux gamins
Tu étais mon seul bien
Mais tu n'en savais rien
Petite sœur d'amour
Petite sœur d'amour
Pour toi, je suis simplement un copain
À qui l'on tend la main
Petite sœur d'amour
Pourras-tu m'aimer un jour?
Mais lorsque j'ai grandi
Quand j'ai appris la vie
J'ai voulu t'épouser
Mais tu m'as ri au nez
Car tu avais changé
Petite sœur d'amour
Petite sœur d'amour
Pour toi, je suis simplement un copain
À qui l'on tend la main
Petite sœur d'amour
Pourras-tu m'aimer un jour?
