Maldita Depresión


Maldita Depresión
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



Maldita depresión, no me provoques
que vas a perder conmigo
Maldita depresión, levanta el vuelo
pon el nido en otro sitio
Maldita depresión, desata el nudo
que vas a rizar el rizo

Maldita depresión, maldita sinrazón
maldita depresión
no voy a permitir que me ates
al torbellino de tu desastre
maldita depresión

Maldita depresión, baila tú sola
que no sé marcar el paso
Maldita depresión, detén la bala
que ya voy muy disparado
Maldita depresión, vuelve a tu pozo
de murciélagos y sapos

Maldita depresión, maldita sinrazón
maldita depresión
no voy a permitir que me ates
al torbellino de tu desastre
maldita depresión

Maldita depresión, no me señales
que te pillarás el dedo
Maldita depresión, si me succionas
vas a deglutir veneno

Maldita depresión, cava tu fosa
que ya piso mi agujero
Maldita depresión, te escupo al rostro
cuando miro en el espejo

Maldita depresión, maldita sinrazón
maldita depresión
no voy a permitir que me ates
al torbellino de tu desastre
maldita depresión

Live Forever


Live Forever
Composer(s): Billy Joe Shaver - Eddy Shaver
First release by: Shaver - 1993
Covered by multiple other artists



I'm gonna live forever
I'm gonna cross that river
I'm gonna catch tomorrow now
You're gonna want to hold me
Just like I always told you
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone

Nobody here will ever find me
But I will always be around
Just like the songs I leave behind me
I'm gonna live forever now

You fathers and you mothers
Be good to one another
Please try to raise your children right
Don't let the darkness take 'em
Don't make 'em feel forsaken
Just lead them safely to the light

When this old world is blown assunder
And all the stars fall from the sky
Remember someone really loves you
We'll live forever you and I

I'm gonna live forever
I'm gonna cross that river
I'm gonna catch tomorrow now

I'm gonna live forever
I'm gonna cross that river
I'm gonna catch tomorrow now

I'm gonna live forever
I'm gonna cross that river
I'm gonna catch tomorrow now

Maldicion Ranchera


Maldicion Ranchera
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
and various other artists



Que todos los mariachis de Jalisco
te vayan a cantar nuestra cancion
cuando estes recordando mi cariño
cuando sientas que te hago falta yo

Que no halla ni una gota de tequila
ni nada que consuele tu dolor
y asi cuando reniegues de tu vida
que todos los mariachis de Jalisco
te vayan a cantar nuestra cancion

Que si es de noche no halla estrellas
que si es de dia no salga el sol
que estes tu sola con tus penas
que sienta frio tu corazon

Y luego que comiences a gritarme
y quedes al amparo del dolor
igual que cuando tu me abandonaste
que todos los mariachis de Jalisco
te vuelvan a cantar nuestra cancion

Que bonito amor
que bonito cielo
que bonita luna
que bonito sol

Igual que cuando tu me abandonaste
que todos los mariachis de Jalisco
te vuelvan a cantar nuestra cancion

Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young


Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young
Composer(s): Joe Allison
Performer(s): Faron Young



I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memory

I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memory
Don't want slow walkin' or sad singin'
Let 'em have a jubilee
I wanna leave a lot of happy women
A-thinkin' pretty thoughts of me
I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memory

I got a hot-rod car and a cowboy suit
And I really do get around
I got a little black book and the gals look cute
And I know the name of ev'ry spot in town
I wanna find 'em, fool 'em, leave 'em
An' let 'em do the same to me
I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memory

I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memory
I'm a wampus cat let me grab my hat
And baby come aiong with me
We're gonna do some fancy steppin'
We're really goin' on a spree
I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memory

Now you may not approve of the things I do
But it really don't bother me
But don't ever think you can tie me down
I'm gonna stay footloose and fancy free
So jump back, make tracks, move out
An' let the pretty gals at me
I wanna live fast, love hard, die young
And leave a beautiful memory

Live Every Moment


Live Every Moment
Composer(s): Kevin Cronin
Performer(s): REO Speedwagon



Live every moment - love every day
'Cus before you know it your precious time slips away
Live every moment - love every day
'Cause if you don't you might just throw your love away

I walked for seven miles this mornin'
Footprints in the sand
Washed away without a warning when the water hit the land
But I will walk on 'til I can no longer stand
I'll take you by the hand and we'll ...

Live every moment - love every day
'Cus before you know it your precious time slips away

There's water in the wind tonight
There's a chill in the air
It's coolin' down my skin tonight
Soakin' through your hair
There's warmth enough within' tonight
for both of us to share
We can take it anywhere
And we'll ...

Live every moment - love every day
'Cus before you know it your precious time slips away

Sometimes I wish we could take a trip far away
Leave all this trouble and heartache and pain for another day
I will search for that place but 'til I find it all I can say is ...

Live every moment - and love every day

Malandro Quando Morre


Malandro Quando Morre
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Maria Lucia



Cai no chão
Um corpo maltrapilho
Velho chorando
Malandro do morro era seu filho

Lá no morro
De amor o sangue corre
moça chorando
Que o verdadeiro amor sempre é o que morre

Menino quando morre vira anjo
Mulher vira um flor no céu
Pinhos chorando
Malandro quando morre
Vira samba

Dress and let dress, strip and let strip
Live and let live, and remember this line
Your business is your business

Que bonitos ojos tienes
debajo de esas dos cejas
debajo de esas dos cejas
que bonitos tienes

Ellos me quieren mirar
pero si tú no los dejas
pero si tú no los dejas
ni siquiera parpadear

Malagueña ¡ay! Salerosa

Besar tus labios quisiera
besar tus labios quisiera
malagueña salerosa
y decirte niña hermosa
eres linda y hechicera
eres linda y hechicera
como el candor de una rosa
y decirte niña hermosa

Si por pobre me desprecias
yo te concedo razón
yo te concedo razón
si por pobre me desprecias

Yo no te ofrezco riquezas
te ofrezco mi corazón
te ofrezco mi corazón
a cambio de mi pobreza

Live And Let Die


Live And Let Die
Composer(s): Linda McCartney - Paul McCartney
First release by: Wings - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists



When you were young and your heart was an open book
You used to say live and let live
(You know you did, you know you did, you know you did)
But if this ever-changing world in which we live in
Makes you give in and cry
Say live and let die!
Live and let die
Live and let die
Live and let die

What does it matter to ya
When you've got a job to do you gotta do it well
You gotta give the other fellow hell!

You used to say live and let live
(You know you did, you know you did, you know you did)
But if this ever-changing world in which we live in
Makes you give in and cry
Say live and let die!
Live and let die
Live and let die
Live and let die

Live Alone And Like It


Live Alone And Like It
Composer(s): Stephen Sondheim
Performer(s): Mel Tormé; Michael; Lisa Minelli



Live alone and like it
Free as the birds in the trees
High above the briars

Live alone and like it
Doing whatever you please
When your heart desires
Free to hang around or
Fly at any old time

No equivocation
Most of all no guarantees
That can be your motto
Free of obligation
Only the murmuring breeze
As an obligatto
Live alone and like it
Why is that such a crime?

Free to call the tune,
Free to say if you're
Gonna work or play
You can have the moon
But you don't have to have
It night and day

Anyway
On your own with only
You to concern yourself
Doesn't mean you're lonely
Just that you're free
Live and alone and like it
Don't come down from that tree

That's the answer for me
That's the answer for me

Malagueña (English Version)


Malagueña
Composer(s): Ernesto Lecuona; Marian Banks
Performer(s): Connie Francis



"Fly away!" Said my carefree heart
"To the pace where daydreams start"
"Fly away!" Said my heart to me
"To the shore of the moonlit sea"
"T'is the gypsy code to be fancy-free
When I see a road
Oh that's the road for me!

My Malagueña, your eyes shamed the purple sky
You were as fair as I dreamed you would be
I loved and left you for I never could deny
The gypsy strain in me
Lightly as a song, going where I please
Journeying along with every vagrant breeze
Up a hill, down a stream
I follow in a dream

Long have I travelled my love
Since the night we met
Seeking in wandering
A way to forget
But it's no matter by what path I may depart
I can't escape from my Malagueña

Liù


Liù
Performer(s): Alunni del Sole



Liu' si stendeva su di noi
e ci dava un po' di se'
senza chiederci perche'
senza chiederci perche'
Liu' gia' sapeva tutto di se'
ma con gli occhi guardava te
con la mano cercava me
con la mano cercava me
E io si' l'avrei trovata
per far l'amore
Liu' su un letto caldo o su un divano
ingigantita su un falso piano
io mi ricordero' di te
io mi ricordero' di te
e io si' t'avrei trovata per far l'amore
e io si' t'avrei trovata per far l'amore
t'avrei trovata per far l'amore
t'avrei trovata per dirti
Liu' credendo che il tempo
ci dia ragione
dipingimi tutto con il carbone
e poi non dirmi che e' un'illusione
e poi non dirmi che e' un'illusione
Io si' t'avrei trovata per far l'amore
Liu' e' un'ora del giorno che penso a te
lascia il tuo viso scivolare piano
lasciati sola senza una ragione
lasciati sola senza troppa intenzione
Liu' non ti perdo se mi stringi le mani
non ti ascolto se mi chiedi domani
siamo ancora insieme come stasera
siamo ancora insieme come stasera
Liu' se mi pensi dimmi dove sei
se ti fermi chiedimi una volta
se anch'io ti ho pensato un po'
se anch'io ti penso
se anch'io ti penso

Maladie D'amour


Maladie D'amour
Composer(s): Barretta; Marc Lanjean;
Henri Salvador; G. Soïme
Performer(s): Henri Salvador



Maladie d'amour, maladie de la jeunesse
Si tu n'aimes que moi
Reste tout près de moi, oh...
Maladie d'amour, maladie de la jeunesse
Si tu n'aimes que moi
Reste tout près de moi

Quand l'amour est petit, c'est joli si joli
Mais il devient fort, méfiez-vous mes amis
Caché sous le feuillage,
C'est comme un serpent gris

Oh Oh
N'allez pas quand il dort
Surtout le réveiller
N'allez pas car il mord
Si vous le réveillez

Quand l'amour est petit, c'est joli si joli
Mais quand il devient fort
C'est plus beau que la vie
J'irai sous le feuillage
Chercher le serpent gris

Oh Oh...
Car l'amour c'est la mort
Mais c'est aussi la vie
Car l'amour c'est la mort
Et c'est le paradis

Little Woman


Little Woman
Composer(s): Danny Janssen
Performer(s): Bobby Sherman



Hey Little Woman please make up your mind
You've got to come into my world
Leave your world behind
Come on now
Na, na, na, na...
You got to
Come down from that cloud girl and
Leave your world behind

When your with me
I feel sunshine
Even when I'm standing in the rain
Something happens that I can't explain
When I hear your name
But you can't help it that
You're always chasing rainbows in your mind
There's so much I wanna say to you
But there's so little time

Hey Little Woman please make up your mind
You've got to come into my world
Leave your world behind
Na, na, na, na...
You got to
Come down from that cloud girl and
Leave your world behind

What do you see when your walking down
A busy street and I'm not there
Is my picture hanging in your mind
Walking with you there
That's how it is in my world girl
You're not there all the time
Why don't you come into my world and
Leave your world behind

Hey Little Woman please make up your mind
You've got to come into my world
Leave your world behind
Na, na, na, na...
You got to
Come down from that cloud girl and
Leave your world behind

Si avisse fatto a n'ato
Cchello ch'hê fatto a me
St'ommo t'avesse acciso...
E vuó' sapé pecché?
Pecché 'ncopp'a 'sta terra
Femmene comm'a te
Nun ce hann''a stá pe' n'ommo
Onesto comm'a me...

Tu si' na malafemmena...
A st'uocchie hê fatto chiagnere
Lacreme 'e 'nfamitá...

Tu si' peggio 'e na vipera
Mm'hê 'ntussecato ll'ánema
Nun pòzzo cchiù campá...
Femmena
Si' doce comm''o zzuccaro...
Peró 'sta faccia d'angelo
Te serve pe' 'nganná!

Femmena
Tu si' 'a cchiù bella femmena...
Te voglio bene e t'odio
Nun te pòzzo scurdá...
Te voglio ancora bene
Ma tu nun saje pecché...
Pecché ll'unico ammore
Si' stato tu pe' me!...
E tu, pe' nu capriccio
Tutto hê distrutto oje né'...
Ma Dio nun t''o pperdona
Chello ch'hê fatto a me...
Femmena
