    Look In My Eyes Pretty Woman
    Composer(s): Brian Potter - Dennis Lambert
    Performer(s): Tony Orlando & Dawn



    Time is on my side
    Though the world keeps gettin' colder
    'Cause I've got you, girl
    To ease my troubled mind, ooh

    I'm a different man
    When your head is on my shoulder
    I can find the answers in me
    That I never thought I'd find

    'Cause when you look in my eyes, pretty woman
    The world is a peaceful place
    All I can see when there's you
    And there's me is love upon your face

    Stand by me, baby, and we'll find the way
    Before our day is done
    Oh, look in my eyes, pretty woman
    And we'll overcome

    You're my guiding star
    You're my faith, my hope, my power
    When I just can't find a reason to believe

    Touch my hand with love
    And you light my darkest hour
    I can feel the warmth returning
    And my pain about to leave

    'Cause when you look in my eyes, pretty woman
    The world is a peaceful place
    Oh, all I can see when there's you
    And there's me is love upon your face

    Stand by me, baby, and we'll find the way
    Before our day is done
    Oh, look in my eyes, pretty woman
    And we'll overcome, yeah

    Oh, look in my eyes, pretty woman
    The world is a peaceful place
    Oh, all I can see when there's you
    And there's me is love upon your face

    Oh, stand by me, baby, and we'll find the way
    Before our day is done
    Oh, look in my eyes, pretty woman
    And we'll overcome

    Say look in my eyes, pretty woman

    Six Jours À La Campagne
    Composer(s): Hort Axton; Pierre Delanoë; Claude Lemesle
    Performer(s): Joe Dassin



    Le premier jour, quand on s'est rencontrés
    C'était le début du monde, la fin de l'ombre
    Tout recommençait
    Le second jour, quand on s'est reveillés
    On a reveillé les sources, le vent qui soufflait
    Sur les champs de blé

    Au matin du troisième Dieu a créé l'Amour
    Pour que tu m'aimes...
    Tu m'as aimé six jours

    Le jour suivant, parmi d'autres merveilles
    On a créé la tendresse, quand Dieu n'as fait
    Que l'eau et le soleil
    Le cinquième jour un nuage est passé
    J'avais perdu l'habitude, ma solitude
    Tu l'as réinventée

    Au matin du sixième Dieu a créé la Femme
    Pour que tu m'aimes... six jours à la campagne

    Ingen Regning
    ((Adapted from: No Charge (by Melba Montgomery) - 1974))
    ((French Version: Cadeau (by Marie Laforêt) - 1974))
    Composer(s): Harlan Howard - Kurt Thyboe
    Performer(s): Peter Belli - 1978



    Vores lille knægt kom ud til mor i køkkenet en aften, mens hun stod og lavede mad
    Og han gav hende en lille seddel, han havde skrevet
    Og da hun havde tørret hænderne i forklædet, tog hun sedlen og læste den, mens jeg lyttede
    Og her er, hvad der stod

    For at slå græsset: 5kr
    For at rede min seng hele ugen: 6kr
    For at have gået til købmanden: 2kr
    For at lege med lillebror, mens du var ude at købe ind: 2kr
    For at bære skraldespanden ud: 3kr
    Og for gode karakterer i skolen: 10kr
    For at gøre rent i gården: 10kr
    Så alt i alt skylder du mig: 38kr

    Mor så lidt på knægten, der stod der og så så forventningsfuld ud
    Og jeg kunne se, at hun tænkte tilbage på alle de år, som vi havde haft sammen med ham
    Så tog hun blyanten, vendte sedlen om, og så skrev hun, og jeg læste det for ham

    For den tid, jeg bar dig

    mens du boede indeni mig: Ingen regning!
    For de nætter jeg sad hos dig

    græd for dig og bad for dig: Ingen regning!
    For al den tid, al den frygt

    du har kostet din mor: Ingen regning!
    Lille søn, du skal vide, at for min kærlighed til dig

    der er der bare ingen regning!
    For de år, der vil komme

    med angst for din fremtid: Ingen regning!
    Og for alle mine gode råd

    og for al min erfaring: Ingen regning!
    For legetøj, mad og tøj, ja, selv for at snyde din

    lille næse – der er bare ingen regning, søn!
    Og læg alt det her sammen –

    så er min kærlighed til dig bare uden regning!

    Da jeg var færdig med at læse op, så havde min lille søn store tårer i øjnene
    Han så op på sin mor, og han sagde: mor jeg elsker dig så meget!
    Så tog han blyanten, og med store, skæve bogstaver skrev han

    Alt er betalt!

    Og til alle jer små venner ude i landet: Husk, at fars og mors kærlighed den koster ikke noget
    (kor:) Så er min kærlighed til dig bare uden regning!

    Marie-Blanche
    Composer(s): André-Pierre Dousset
    First performance by: Guy Bonnet - 1970



    C'est l'heure où des perles de givre se posent
    Où chaque feuille se prend pour une rose
    Quelque part un oiseau chante quelque chose
    Et Marie-Blanche est à moi

    Nous sommes là dans une douce quiétude
    Nous avons mis fin à notre solitude
    Nos corps apprennent de tendres habitudes
    Et Marie-Blanche est à moi

    Et Marie-Blanche est à moi, et moi, je l'aime
    Et Marie-Blanche s'endort près de moi

    La neige tombe et le vent lui fait escorte
    Tous les étangs sont gelés, oui, mais qu'importe
    À l'hiver nous avons fermé notre porte
    Et Marie-Blanche est à moi

    Et Marie-Blanche est à moi, et moi, je l'aime
    Et Marie-Blanche s'endort près de moi

    Oh, que le temps lui-même tourne ses pages
    Nous resterons là un siècle ou davantage
    La ville dort sous l'aile des blancs nuages
    Et Marie-Blanche est à moi

    Je ne veux rien savoir du reste du monde
    La terre ne m'a jamais semblé aussi ronde
    Contre mon cœur, il y a sa tête blonde
    Et Marie-Blanche est à moi

    (ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh)

    Look homeward, angel
    Tell me what you see
    Do the folks I used to know remember me?

    Look homeward, angel
    Eye my lady fair
    Does she dream about the love we used to share?

    So she'll know how very much I miss her
    Angel, while she's dreaming, won't you kiss her?

    Look homeward, angel
    One thing I must know
    Do her empty arms still yearn for me alone?

    So she'll know how very much I miss her
    Angel, while she's dreaming, won't you kiss her?

    Look homeward, angel
    One thing I must know
    Do her empty arms still yearn for me alone?

    Do her empty arms still yearn for me alone?

    Six Foot Seven Woman
    Performer(s): Foster & Allen



    Come let me introduce you to the woman who's me Wife
    Of all me great possessions, she's the biggest in me life
    There's not a chance I'd lose her, she's too easy to be found
    She's six foot seven inches and she weighs three hundred pounds

    Sure, when I started courtin' her, her figure was a twelve
    I put me arms around her, but me arms they were too short
    To take her to the pictures, sure I didn't have the dough
    To pay for all the seats she'd fill down in the bottom row

    Oh, she's six foot seven inches, Boys, let's sing it once again
    She's got the kind of figure that was mostly meant for men
    You may talk of Texas giants, who are brawny, big and tall
    But this six foot seven woman, she'd make midgets of them all

    To fit her with the costume, makes the tailors take great pains
    They have to take her measurements with lengths of Irish chains
    (land surveying chain in the version I heard)

    It takes a room of cloth to make a top of any taste
    And half an acre more to cover all below her waste

    Oh, she's six foot seven inches, Boys, let's sing it once again
    She's got the kind of figure that was mostly meant for men
    You may talk of Texas giants, who are brawny, big and tall
    But this six foot seven woman, she'd make midgets of them all

    The mornin' we got married, I can still remember well
    We went to have our breakfast in the Park House Hotel
    To fit her through the doorway, sure I knew it was too small
    She ate so much, to get her out we had to knock the wall

    She says our house is much too small, she can't expand her chest
    She's rather like a cuckoo in a little sparrow's nest
    If every women grew that size, I'm going to tell you, Boys
    You might knock all the houses down and build them twice the size

    Oh, she's six foot seven inches, Boys, let's sing 'er once again
    She's got the kind of figure that was mostly meant for men
    You can talk of Texas giants, who are brawny, big and tall
    But this six foot seven woman, she'd make midgets of them all

    Look For The Silver Lining
    Composer(s): B.G. DeSylva - Jerome Kern
    First performance by: Marilyn Miller & Irving Fisher - 1920
    Covered by multiple other artists



    (Boy)
    Please don't be offended if I preach to you awhile
    Tears are out of place in eyes that were meant to smile
    There's a way to make your very biggest troubles small
    Here's the happy secret of it all

    Look for the silver lining
    When e'er a cloud appears in the blue
    Remember some where the sun is shining
    And so the right thing to do
    Is make it shine for you

    A heart, full of joy and gladness
    Will always banish sadness and strife
    So always look for the silver lining
    And try to find the sunny side of life

    (Girl)
    As I wash my dishes, I'll be following your plan
    Till I see the brightness in ev'ry pot and pan
    I am sure your point of view will ease the daily grind
    So I keep repeating in my mind

    (Girl)
    Look for the silver lining
    When e'er a cloud appears in the blue
    Remember some where the sun is shining
    And so the right thing to do
    Is make it shine for you

    Viens L'oublier
    Composer(s): Jean Vallée
    First performance by: Jean Vallée - 1970



    Un chagrin vient d'apparaître
    Un peu de pluie pour tes cils
    Quelques larmes viennent de naître
    Un peu d'amour qui s'enfuit

    Viens l'oublier
    Ce garçon te fait trop souvent souffrir
    Viens l'effacer
    Ce premier amour était mal écrit

    Un nuage va disparaître
    Un bouquet d'ombres qui s'enfuient
    Un soleil vient d'apparaître
    Un peu de bleu pour tes cils

    Viens l'oublier
    Ce garçon te fait trop souvent souffrir
    Viens l'effacer
    Ce premier amour était mal écrit

    Une étoile vient d'apparaître
    Un peu de nuit pour tes cils
    Une rose vient de naître
    Un peu d'amour dans la nuit

    Viens l'oublier
    Ce garçon te fait trop souvent souffrir
    Viens l'effacer
    Ce premier amour était mal écrit

    Viens..

    Tombe la neige
    Tu ne viendras pas ce soir
    Tombe la neige
    Et mon coeur s’habille de noir

    Ce soyeux cortège
    Tout en larmes blanches
    L’oiseau sur la branche
    Pleure le sortilège

    “Tu ne viendras pas ce soir”
    Me crie mon désespoir
    Mais tombe la neige
    Impassible manège

    Tombe la neige
    Tu ne viendras pas ce soir
    Tombe la neige
    Tout est blanc de désespoir

    Triste certitude
    Le froid et l’absence
    Cet odieux silence
    Blanche solitude

    “Tu ne viendras pas ce soir”
    Me crie mon désespoir

    Six Feet Of Snow
    Composer(s): Keith Godchaux; Lowell George
    Performer(s): Little Feat; Souled American



    Six feet of snow
    Coming through my radio
    It's raining in stilettos
    From here clear down to Mexico

    My hands are numb
    From hanging on that steering wheel
    They're frozen tight
    Hope the wind don't blow me off the road tonight

    Don't you know the ice and snow
    Is sneaking in through my window
    Don't you know how much I hate to be so cold
    And so alone
    I'm coming home

    If it wasn't for the lines that wind side by side
    I'd be lying next to her
    Next to her tonight

    Sweet New Orleans
    That's where my girl, she waits for me
    Hair so long and eyes so green
    She's the prettiest girl I've ever seen

    Don't you know the ice and snow
    Is sneaking through this boy's window
    Don't you know how much I hate to be so cold
    And so alone
    I'm coming home

    If it wasn't for the lines that wind side by side
    I'd be lying next to her
    Next to her tonight

    When life doesn't seem worth the living
    And you don't really care who you are

    Look for a star

    Oh, everyone has a lucky star
    That shines in the sky up above
    If you wish on a lucky star
    You're sure to find someone to love

    A rich man man, a poor man, a beggar
    No matter whoever you are
    There's a friend who's waiting to guide you
    Look for a star

    A rich man, a poor man, a beggar

    Six Days On The Road
    (French Version: Six Jours Sur La Route - 1975) Composer(s): Earl Green; Carl Montgomery
    First release by: Dave Dudley - 1964
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Well, I pulled out of Pittsburgh
    Rollin' down the Eastern Seaboard
    I've got my diesel wound up
    And she's running like never before
    There's a speed zone ahead, all right
    I don't see a cop in sight
    Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

    I got ten forward gears
    And a Georgia overdrive
    I'm taking little white pills
    And my eyes are open wide
    I just passed a 'Gimmy' and a 'White'
    I've been passin' everything in sight
    Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

    Well, it seems like a month
    Since I kissed my baby good-bye
    I could have a lot of women
    But I'm not like some other guys
    I could find one to hold me tight
    But I could never believe that it's right
    Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

    I.C.C. is checking on down the line
    I'm a little overweight and my log's three days behind
    But nothing bothers me tonight
    I can dodge all the scales all right
    Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

    Well my rig's a little old
    But that don't mean she's slow
    There's a flame from her stack
    And the smoke's rolling black as coal
    My hometown's coming in sight
    If you think I'm happy your right
    Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
    Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
    Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

    Look Before You Leap
    Composer(s): Dave Clark - Lenny Davidson
    Performer(s): The Dave Clark Five



    You got to look before you leap
    There's heartaches around every corner
    You got to look before you leap
    There's heartaches around every corner
    Well, one fine day I met this girl
    She was oh so fine
    Well she said 'Boy, I'm gonna love love love you
    For a long long time'
    Now I said 'Wait... wait... wait... wait...'
    You got to look before you leap
    There's heartaches around every corner
    You got to look before you leap
    There's heartaches around every corner
    Well, she said 'Right, I'm gonna prove you're wrong
    Just you wait and see
    Now take my hand and look into my eyes
    And you'll disagree'
    But I said 'Now, wait... wait.... wait... wait...'
    You got to look before you leap
    There's heartaches around every corner
    You got to look before you leap
    There's heartaches around every corner
    Now that she has seen the light
    It was understood
    Cause the very next day she walked away with someone else
    Like I knew she would
    So I said 'Now, look... look... look... look...'
    You got to look before you leap, believe me baby
    There's heartaches around every corner
    You got to look before you leap, I'm telling you now
    There's heartaches around every corner
    So look... look... look before you leap

    Sitting On Top Of The World
    Composer(s): Jem Finer; James Fearnley; Terry Woods
    Performer(s): The Pogues



    Well it's been a long day but I don't like to moan
    It's the middle of summer and I'm chilled to the bone
    THere's holes in my shoes where the rain comes in
    I'm sitting on top of the world

    Walking in the shadows of empty office blocks
    I was talking to a stranger and he's on the rocks
    Down on the pavement living in a box
    I'm sitting on top of the world

    Oh no can't anybody see
    It's been a bad day and I want a little peace

    Oh no won't you please help me
    I want to lie down but there's no beds free

    Down on the corner there's starry eyed preachers
    Rattling cans and pimping Jesus
    There's madmen on boxes makig speeches
    I'm sitting on top of the world

    You can't sit in the sunshine or go out after dark
    There's dogs on the loose acting like sharks
    There's psychos on the streets burning winos in the park
    I'm sitting on top of the world

    Oh no I wish I was gone
    I want to get going before too long

    Oh no I want to leave town
    But I can't drive my car 'cause they put it in the pound

    The masters of industry are killing for oil
    There's poison in the air the water and the soil
    We're all turning mutant they're counting up their spoils
    I'm sitting on top of the world

    I turn on the TV and it makes me want to cry
    There's killing and there's torture there's destruction and there's lies
    And our leaders talk rubbish and more people die
    I'm sitting on top of the world

    Oh no I can't take anymore
    I'm shaking all over and my nerves are all raw

    Oh no my head's a little sore
    I want to get out but I can't find the door

    Look At Yourself
    Composer(s): Kenneth William David Hensley
    First release by: Uriah Heep - 1971



    I see you runnin' - don't know what you're runnin' from
    Nobody's comin' - what'd you do that was so wrong?
    Look back and turn back - look at yourself
    Don't be afraid just look at yourself

    If you need assistance - or if all you need is love
    there's no point in hiding - tell me what your frieghtened of
    You've got a friend just look at yourself
    Don't be afraid just look at yourself

    Look back and turn back - look at yourself
    Don't be afraid just look at yourself

    Sitting On Top Of The World
    Composer(s): Walter Vinson
    First release by: Mississippi Sheiks - 1930
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Was all the summer, and all the fall
    Just trying to find my little all in all
    But now she's gone, and I don't worry
    Lord I'm sitting on top of the world

    Was in the spring, one summer day
    Just when she left me, she's gone to stay
    But now she's gone, and I don't worry
    Oh I'm sitting on top of the world

    An' you come runnin', holdin' up your hand
    Can't get me a woman, cranky you can get a man
    But now you're gone, and now I don't worry
    Lord I'm sitting on top of the world

    Have been days, I didn't know your name
    Why should I worry or cry in vain
    But now she's gone, now I don't worry
    Lord I'm sitting on top of the world

    Went to the station, down in the yard
    Gonna get me a freight train, worked and got to home
    But now she's gone, and I don't worry
    Oh I'm sitting on top of the world

    The lonesome days, they have gone by
    Why should you beg me oh say goodbye
    But now she's gone, and I don't worry
    Oh cause I'm sitting on top of the world

    Look At You Over There, Ripping The Sawdust From My Teddybear
    Performer(s): Alice Cooper



    You got your crust
    Turning my daydreams into dust
    Oh look at you over there ripping the sawdust from my teddy bear
    Yeah look at you over there ripping the sawdust from my teddy bear

    You're so darn pretty girl
    I think you know it you was you
    On Monday morning putting back yakity yak
    Oh look at you over there ripping the sawdust from my teddy bear
    Yeah now look at you over there ripping the sawdust from my teddy bear

    You take the pebbles from the babies' rattle
    You make Santa's reindeer look like cattle
    You take Tinkerbells rust, turn it into sawdust
    Yeah now look at you over there ripping the sawdust from my teddy bear
    Yeah look at you over there ripping the sawdust from my teddy bear

    You take the pebbles from the babies' rattle
    You make Santa's reindeer look like cattle
    You take Tinkerbell's rust turn it into sawdust
    You got your crust
    Turning my daydreams into dust

    Yeah now look at you over there ripping the sawdust from my teddy bear
    Yeah now look at you over there ripping the sawdust from my teddy bear
    Look at you over there, Look at you over there
    Look at you over there, Look at you over there
    Look at you over there, Look at you over there
    Yeah look at you over there, Look at you over there, Look at you over there

    Look at you over there, Look at you over there
    Over there, over there, over there, over there
    My poor teddy bear, teddy bear, teddy bear, teddy bear

    Retour
    Composer(s): Henri Dès
    First performance by: Henri Dès - 1970



    Toi qui m'attends au moins toutes les nuits
    Et moi qui prends le train pour l'Italie
    J'y resterai dix jours, ni trop long ni trop court
    C'est un peu loin, je sais, mais tiens-toi bien
    À mon retour, j'aurai, dans un écrin
    Les photographies de mes p'tites amies
    Et l'Italie vaudra bien quelques nuits

    Pa pa ba pa pa pa... pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa pa ba pa pa...

    Toi qui as l'âme sœur mieux qu'une sœur
    Et moi qui joue carreau avec ton cœur
    Je me fais l'affaire, pour les Angleterres
    C'est un peu loin, je sais, mais tiens-toi bien
    À mon retour, j'aurai, dans un écrin
    Deux-trois galipettes et quelques bouclettes
    Et ta douleur vaudra bien mon ardeur

    Pa pa ba pa pa pa... pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa pa ba pa pa...

    Toi qui donnes l'amour mieux qu'une mère
    Et moi qui fais le sourd, comme on prend l'air
    J'pars à la conquête de toutes les minettes
    Ça n'est pas rien, je sais, mais tiens-toi bien
    À mon retour, j'aurai, dans un écrin
    Une grande expérience, tu peux m'faire confiance
    Et notre amour vaudra bien un détour

    Pa pa ba pa pa pa... pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa pa ba pa pa...

    Toi qui fermes les yeux sur mon absence
    Toi qui parles si peu, toi la clémence
    Je sais qu'entre toutes, au bout de mes routes
    Je garderai pour toi, au fond du cœur
    Une place de choix, comme une fleur
    Et puis une bagouse, qui f'ra des jalouses
    Et ton amour vaudra bien mon retour

    Pa pa ba pa pa pa... pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa ba pa pa...
    Pa pa pa pa pa... pa pa pa ba pa pa...
