Take Me In Your Arms (Jack Wallis)


Take Me In Your Arms
Composer(s): F. Charles
Performer(s): Jack Wallis & His Band



Take me in your arms again
While the moon and stars remain
Take me to your heart and say we’ll never part
Please don’t let me plead in vein

While there’s love there’s still a kiss
All the world remembers this
So darling as you face me, won’t you please embrace me
And take me in your arms again

So darling as you face me, won’t you please embrace me
And take me in your arms again

Motorhead


Motorhead
Composer(s): Lemmy Kilmister
Originally performed by: Hawkwind
Covered by various other artists



Sunrise, wrong side of another day
Sky high and six thousand miles away
Don't know how long I've been awake
Wound up in an amazing state
Can't get enough
And you know it's righteous stuff
Goes up like prices at Christmas
Motorhead, you can call me Motorhead, alright

Brain dead, total amnesia
Get some mental anaesthesia
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights
I guess I'll see you all on the ice
All good clean fun
Have another stick of gum
Man, you look better already
Motorhead, remember me now Motorhead, alright

Fourth day, five day marathon
We're moving like a parallelogram
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights
If I can't be wrong I must be right
I should be tired
And all I am is wired
Ain't felt this good for an hour
Motorhead, remember me now, Motorhead alright

Give Her A Little Kiss


Give Her A Little Kiss
Composer(s): Miller; Franz Steininger
Performer(s): Carl Brisson



If you've fallen in love with someone
As a healthy young man should do
Don't be shy or afraid
For each little maid needs love, love
You can easily win that someone
If you listen to what I say
You can capture her quick
With one little trick, that'll get her right away

Just give her a little kiss
A little kiss, and then a kiss
Give her a little kiss
And leave the rest to the girl

There's not a single miss
Who's likely to object to this
Give her a little kiss
And leave the rest to the girl

As soon as you're together
Get busy, never stop
Don't talk about the weather
In fact say nothing at all

Just give her a little kiss
Then a little of that, and a little of this
Then give her a little kiss
And leave the rest to the girl

Give her a little kiss
A little kiss, and then a kiss
Give her a little kiss
And leave the rest to the girl

There's not a single miss
Who's likely to object to this
So give her a little kiss
And leave the rest to the girl

As soon as you're together
Get busy, never stop
Don't talk about the weather
In fact say nothing at all

Just give her a little weee
Then a little Woo, and a little wow
Then give her a little kiss
And leave the rest to the girl

Take Me In Your Arms (Dean Martin)


Take Me In Your Arms ((aka Come Back To Sorrento (Dean Martin) - 1951; Surrender (Elvis Presley) - 1960/1961))
(Adapted from: Torna A Surriento - 1902)
Composer(s): Giambattista De Curtis - Ernesto De Curtis - Joe Lilley
Performer(s): Dean Martin - 1962



Once upon a lovely time
Many million dreams ago
Once there was a man in love dear
Many million dreams ago

Once he thought he had a sweetheart
Then he broke the golden rule
Never take your love for granted
Wise men often play the fool

Now he'd like to say I'm sorry
Can't you see within his heart
Without you there's no tomorrow
Why should true love have to part

Take me in your arms
I promise to be true
Never again I'll stray
Away from you

Take me in your arms
I promise to be true
Never again I'll stray
Away from you

Motorcycle Mama


Motorcycle Mama
Composer(s): Johnny Wyker
Originally performed by: Sailcat



Tell your Daddy and your Mama too
You got something better to do
Stick around the house the rest of your life
Your eighteen you can do what you like
You'll be the queen of my highway, my motorcycle mama
We'll see the world through my Harley

We'll get matching jackets and helmets too
We'll get respect from the towns we ride through
We'll sleep at the roadside in the soft green grass
and if the squares walk by we'll let them pass
You'll be the queen of my highway, my motorcycle mama
We'll see the world through my Harley

And maybe in a year or two, we'll have a little one, she'll look just like you
We'll add on a sidecar, electric guitar
We'll be a trio, the baby makes three, oh

Tell your Daddy and your Mama too
You got something better to do
Stick around the house the rest of your life
Your eighteen you can be my wife
You'll be the queen of my highway, my motorcycle mama
We'll see the world through my Harley
We'll see the world through my Harley
We'll see the world through my Harley if the chain don't break!

Give Birth To A Smile


Give Birth To A Smile
Composer(s): Roger Waters
Performer(s): Roger Waters; Ron Geesin



Long live the child and the man
Long live the mother and the lad
The hills behind us and the sea
Reach out to welcome you and me
Valley deep and mountain tall
Lie upon the ground before us all
Strange are the colours of the turf
Heralding the rebirth of the earth
Gather all your energy and try
Give birth to a smile
Give birth to a smile
Give birth to a smile
(Everytime you think about it)
Give birth to a smile
Give birth to a smile
Give birth to a smile
Give birth to a smile
Give birth to a smile
Give birth to a smile
(Hear me tellin' you)
Give birth to a smile
(Give birth to a smile)
Give birth to a smile
(Give birth, give birth)
Give birth to a smile
Give birth to a smile
(Every day of your life)
Give birth to a smile
(Give a little birth to a smile)
Give birth to a smile

Take Me Home, Country Roads


Take Me Home, Country Roads
Composer(s): John Denver - Mary Catherine Danoff - William Danoff
First release by: John Denver - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists

Versions In Other Languages:
1975 - Faire Un Pont (Dick Rivers)
1975 - Ved Me Dál, Cesto Má (Pavel Bobek)



Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains
Shenandoah River
Life is old there
Older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Growing like a breeze

Country roads, take me home
To the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mom
Take me home, country roads

All my memories gathered 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Teardrop in my eye

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

I hear her voice, in the morning hour she calls me
Radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get a feeling
I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home
To the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

Moto Contínuo


Moto Contínuo
Composer(s): Chico Buarque - Edú Lobo
Performer(s): Edú Lobo; Chico Buarque; Antonio Carlos Jobim



Um homem pode ir ao fundo do fundo do fundo se for por você
Um homem pode tapar os buracos do mundo se for por você
Pode inventar qualquer mundo, como um vagabundo se for por você
Basta sonhar com você
Juntar o suco dos sonhos e encher um açude se for por você
A fonte da juventude correndo nas bicas se for por você
Bocas passando saúde com beijos nas bocas se for por você
Homem também pode amar e abraçar e afagar seu ofício porque
Vai habitar o edifício que faz pra você
E no aconchego da pele na pele, da carne na carne, entender
Que homem foi feito direito, do jeito que é feito o prazer
Homem constrói sete usinas usando a energia que vem de você
Homem conduz a alegria que sai das turbinas de volta a você
E cria o moto-contínuo da noite pro dia se for por você
E quando um homem já está de partida, da curva da vida ele vê
Que o seu caminho não foi um caminho sozinho proque
Sabe que um homem vai fundo e vai fundo e vai fundo se for por você

Give All Your Love To Me


Give All Your Love To Me
Composer(s): Gerry Marsden
Performer(s): Gerry & The Pacemakers



Love me till the end of time
Till the seas run dry
Till the flowers forget to bloom
Till the sun don’t shine
While there’s people here on earth
While there’s stars above
All I beg of you, my dear
Give me all your love
Give me all your love all of the time
As the wind that blows evermore, evermore
Till the moon has lost its glow
In the heavens above
All I beg of you, my dear
Give me all your love
Give me all your love all of the time
As the wind that blows evermore, evermore
Give me all your love

Faire Un Pont


Faire Un Pont

((Czech Version: Ved Me Dál, Cesto Má (Pavel Bobek) - 1975))
Composer(s): John Denver - Mary Catherine Danoff - William Danoff - Serge Koolenn
Performer(s): Dick Rivers - 1975



De ton visage à mon village
Y'a cette rivière qui coule toute l'année
Entre tes yeux et les miens qui pleurent
Y'a ce fleuve qui s'amuse à nous séparer

Faire un pont pour de bon, lui donner ton prénom
Le traverser pour t'embrasser, faire un pont pour de bon

J'ai essayé de naviguer, perdant ton cœur mais le tien chante si fort
Entre nous deux et le monde entier
Il n'y a qu'une rivière pour nous séparer

Faire un pont pour de bon, lui donner ton prénom
Le traverser pour t'embrasser, faire un pont

Faire un pont pour de bon, lui donner ton prénom
Le traverser pour t'embrasser, faire un pont pour de bon
Faire un pont pour de bon, lui donner ton prénom
Le traverser pour t'embrasser, faire un pont pour de bon
Faire un pont pour de bon, lui donner ton prénom
Le traverser pour t'embrasser, faire un pont

Moto 1


Moto 1
Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner; Melchior
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



Olhe-me III
Veja-me III
Não há novidade alguma nos meus olhos espantados
Olhe-me III
Veja-me III

Você que pensa que eu sou o fim do mundo

Eu preciso é disso mesmo
Que você diz que eu preciso
Uma cara mais alegre
E uma roupa colorida
Mais parecida com a vida

Que só muito amor consegue

A moto macia e leve
Pra cruzar a geografia
Da minha melancolia
Porque a vida
É mesmo breve

Give A Little Whistle


Give A Little Whistle
Composer(s): Leigh Harline; Ned Washington
Performer(s): Cliff "Ukelele Ike" Edwards;
and various other artists



When you get in trouble and you don't know right from wrong
Give a little whistle! Give a little whistle!
When you meet temptation and the urge is very strong
Give a little whistle! Give a little whistle!

Not just a little squeak, pucker up and blow
And if your whistle's weak, yell, "Jiminy Cricket!"
Right!

Take the straight and narrow path
And if you start to slide
Give a little whistle! Give a little whistle!
And always let your conscience be your guide

Take Me Home Tonight


Take Me Home Tonight
Composer(s): Michael Leeson - Peter Vale
Performer(s): Eddie Money; Every Avenue



I feel a hunger

It's a hunger that tries to keep a man awake at night
Are you the answer?
I shouldn't wonder when I feel you whet my appetite

With all the power you're releasing

It isn't safe to walk the city streets a
Anticipation is running through me

Let's find the key and turn this engine on

I can feel you breathe
I can feel your heartbeat faster
Take me home tonight!
I don't want to let you go till you see the light!
Take me home tonight!
Listen honey
Just like Ronnie sang: Be my little baby!

I get frightened in all this darkness

I get nightmares
I hate to sleep alone
I need some company

A guardian angel to keep me warm when the cold winds blow!

I can feel you breathe
I can feel your heartbeat faster ...
Be my little baby!

Just like Ronnie sang
I say
just like Ronnie sang:
Be my little baby
baby
my darling!
I feel a hunger
it's a hunger!

Take me home tonight! ...
Take me home tonight! ...
Take me home tonight! ...

Motivo


Motivo
Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner; Cecília Meireles
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



Eu canto
Porque o instante existe
E a minha vida está completa
Não sou alegre nem sou triste
Sou poeta

Irmão das coisas fugidias
Não sinto gozo nem tormento
Atravesso noites e dias
No vento

Se desmorono ou se edifico
Se permaneço ou me desfaço
Não sei se fico
Ou passo

Eu sei que canto e a canção é tudo
Tem sangue eterno a asa ritimada
E um dia eu sei que estarei mudo
Mais nada

Give A Little Love


Give A Little Love
Composer(s): John Goodison; Phil Wainman
Performer(s): Bay City Rollers



It's a teenage dream, to be seventeen
And to find you're all wrapped up in love
And I've found that you, made a dream come true
Now I do believe in what they say

You've got to give a little love
Take a little love
Be prepared to forsake a little love
And when the sun comes shining through
We'll know what to do

Give a little love, take a little love
Be prepared to forsake a little love
And when the sun comes shining through
We'll know what to do

When I walk with you, there is just we two
And the world goes by but I just don't care
And I know that one day, I'll find a way
To be safe and sound within your heart
So until I do

I'm gonna give a little love
Take a little love
Be prepared to forsake a little love
And when the sun comes shining through
We'll know what to do

Give a little love, take a little love
Be prepared to forsake a little love
And when the sun comes shining through
We'll know what to do

Take Me Home (Joe Cocker & Bekka Bramlett)


Take Me Home
Composer(s): Steve Kipner - John Capek - Mark Jordan
Performer(s): Joe Cocker & Bekka Bramlett



Maybe we're standing on the threshold
With our eyes open wide
Let the river keep on flowing
We can reach the other side
Caught in this endless revolution
Under helicopter skies
To lose becomes unthinkable
And to win is the only road now

There's a bridge over the water
I can see it like a rainbow
If you love me I'll be waiting
Take me home to the other side

All the men and all the women
Who sacrifice their love
Never taste what we took for granted
No they don't know love at all
Some of them broken some of them wounded
And so cynical from the pain
I was quiet as a grave yard
Till you heard me caling out your name

There's a bridge over the water
I can see it like a rainbow
If you love me I'll be waiting
Take me home to the other side

Life was victorious
Now it can't be denied
We'll stand together
Cause love is on our side

There's a bridge over the water
I can see it like a rainbow
If you love me I'll be waiting
Take me home to the other side

Mothership Connection (Starchild)
Composer(s): George Clinton; Bootsy Collins; Bernie Worrell
Originally performed by: Parliament
Covered by various other artists



"Mothership Connection (Starchild)"
Well, all right!
Starchild, Citizens of the Universe, Recording Angels
We have returned to claim the Pyramids
Partying on the Mothership
I am the Mothership Connection
Gettin' down in 3-D
Light year groovin'
Well all right, if you hear any noise, it ain't nobody but me and the boys
Gettin' down
Hit it fellas!

If you hear any noise
It's just me and the boys
Hit me (groovin')
You gotta hit the band

All right, all right, Starchild here
Put a glide in your stride and a dip in your hip
And come on up to the Mothership
Loose Booty, doin' the bump
Hustle on over here

If you hear any noise
It's just me and the boys hittin' it
You gotta hit the band
Ain't nothing but a party, y'all
Face it, even your memory banks have forgotten this funk
Mothership Connection, home of the P.Funk, the Bomb
If you hear any noise
It's just me and the boys, hit me
You gotta hit the band
Doin' it in 3-D
Let me put on my sunglasses here so I can see what I'm doing
When you hear seats rumble you will hear your conscience grumble
Hit me
You gotta hit the band
You have overcome, for I am here

Swing down, sweet chariot
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride

Doin' it up on the Chocolate Milky Way
What's up CC?
Have you forgot me?
Are you hip to Easter Island?
The Bermuda Triangle?
Heh heh!
Well, all right
Ain't nothing but a party!
Starchild here
Citizens of the Universe
I bring forth to you the Good Time
On the Mothership
Are you hip?
Sing, fellas!

If you hear any noise
It's just me and the boys
Hit me
You gotta hit the band
You gotta hit the band

Starchild here, doin' it in 3-D
So good, it's good to me
Hit the band!

If you hear any noise
It's just me and the boys
Hit me
You gotta hit the band

Swing low, sweet chariot, coming for to carry you home!

If you hear any noise
It's just me and the boys
Hit me
You gotta hit the band
You gotta hit the band

I don't think they hear you!
If you hear any noise
It's just me and the boys
Hit me
You gotta hit the band

Starchild here, citizens of the universe
Gettin' it on, partying on the Mothership
When Gabriel's horn blows, you'd better be ready to go

Swing low
Time to move on
Light years in time
Ahead of our time
Free your mind, and come fly
With me
It's hip
On the Mothership
Groovin'

Swing down, sweet chariot
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride
Stop, and let me ride

Give A Little


Give A Little
Composer(s): Bill Payne; Fran Payne
Performer(s): Nicolette Larson



Take a chance
What have you got to lose?
It's better than singing the blues
It's your share, waiting everywhere
I'm really trying to tell you the news

Give a little, care a lot
Try to use the love you've got
Someone's waiting over there
Waiting for someone to care

Won't you try
See what you can do
You see I'm talking to you
There's so much more
Why are you waiting?
It's about time
That you started to give

Give a little, care a lot
Try to use the love you've got
Someone's waiting over there
Waiting for someone to share their love

See what you're given
For once in a life don't be driven
To hide it away

Give a little, care a lot
Try to use the love you've got
Someone's waiting over there
Waiting for someone to care

Give a little, care a lot
Try to use the love you've got
Someone's waiting over there
Waiting for someone to care

Take Me Home (Jim Capaldi)


Take Me Home
Composer(s): Jim Capaldi - C. Thompson - A. Quinta
Performer(s): Jim Capaldi



In an empty bed staring at the ceiling
You need someone to love, show you understanding
When you feel brokenhearted, looking for a way around it
In the middle of a broken dream, open your eyes, never look back
Happiness is something to be aiming at
When you feel brokenhearted, looking for a way around it
in the middle of a broken dream

Take me home, home to your heart
Home to your body babe
Take me in your arms, cover me up
Take me home we're never meant to be alone
How can I make you see, take a chance on me

There's no way out, nobody to turn to
All you need is someone to the rescue
When you feel brokenhearted
looking for a way around it
in the middle of a broken dream

Take me home, home to your heart
Home to your body babe
Take me in your arms, cover me up
Take me home we're never meant to be alone
How can I make you see, take a chance on me

Girl in this life we live
There's so much we can share
So much we can give

Take me home, home to your heart
Home to your body babe
Take me in your arms, cover me up
Take me home we're never meant to be alone
How can I make you see, take a chance on me

Take me home, home to your heart
Home to your body babe
Take me in your arms, cover me up
Take me home we're never meant to be alone
How can I make you see, take a chance on me

Mother's Not Dead, She's Only Sleeping


Mother's Not Dead, She's Only Sleeping
Composer(s): Charlie Monroe
Performer(s): Charlie Monroe;
Roy Acuff; Vernon Oxford



I Left my old home way back in the mountains
Mother was called to heaven that day
They carried my mother up to the graveyard
Ev'rything's lonesome since she went a-way

Chorus
Mother's Not Dead, she's only a-sleeping
Just patiently waiting for Jesus to come
The birds will be singing while mother lies sleeping
They will sing o'er her as the grave fades a-way

Nothing seems right around the old home place
Even the place where we used to play
I love my old home way back in the mountains
But ev'rything's changed since she went away

Chorus

Mother was good and now she's in heaven
She was the best pal a boy ever had
I still love my home way back in the mountains
But without you mother, a heart aches so sad

Chorus
