Te Conozco


Te Conozco
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



De niño te conocí
entre mis sueños queridos
por eso cuando te vi
reconocí mi destino
Cuando pensaba que ya no iba ser
lo que soñaba de pronto vino
Tanto que yo te busqué
y tanto que no te hallaba
que al cabo me acostumbré
a andar con tanto de nada
Cuánto nos puede curar el amor
cuánto renace de tu mirada

Te conozco
te conozco desde siempre
desde lejos
te conozco
te conozco como a un sueño
bueno y viejo
es por eso que te toco
y te conozco
Te conozco

El lago parece mar
el viento sirve de abrigo
todo se vuelve a inventar
si lo comparto contigo
La única prisa es la del corazón
la única ofensa es tener testigos

Te conozco
te conozco desde siempre
desde lejos
te conozco
te conozco como a un sueño
bueno y viejo
es por eso que te toco
y te conozco
Te conozco

My Baby Packed Up My Mind And Left Me


My Baby Packed Up My Mind And Left Me
Composer(s): Dallas Frazier; Arthur Leo Owens
Performer(s): Dallas Frazier



I didn't hear the engines of a jet-plane
I didn't hear the whistle of a train
I didn't hear the taxi-driver knockin' on my door
I didn't hear her walkin' cross the floor
But my baby packed up my mind and then she left me
She knew when I woke up that I'd be lookin' for my mind
She knew she'd leave a crazy man behind
But my baby packed up my mind and then she left me

I never thought this big ole king size bed would find her gone
I never thought she'd leave here alone
I never saw the distance or the leavin' in her eyes
I never thought my babe would wave goodbye
But my baby packed up my mind...
Yes my baby packed up my mind and then she left me

Gone Fishin'


Gone Fishin'
Composer(s): Nick Kenny; Charles Kenny
Performer(s): Louis Armstrong;
and various other artists



I'll tell you why I can't find you
Every time I go out to your place...

You gone fishin' (well how you know)
Well there's a sign upon your door (uh-huh)
Gone fishin' (I'm real gone man)
You ain't workin' anymore (could be)
There's your hoe out in the sun
Where you left a row half done
You claim that hoein' ain't no fun (well I can prove it)
You ain't got no ambition

Gone fishin' by a shady wady pool (Shangrila, really la)
I'm wishin' I could be that kind of fool (should I twist your arm?)
I'd say no more work for mine (welcome to the club)
On my door I'd hang a sign
Gone fishin' instead of just a-wishin'

Papa Bing (yeah Louis)
I stopped by your place a time or two lately
And you aren't home either
Well, I'm a busy man Louis. I got a lotta deals cookin'
I was probably tied up at the studio
You weren't tied up you dog
You was just plain old...

Gone fishin' (bah-boo-bah-boo-bah-boo-bah-boo-bah)
There's a sign upon your door (Pops, don't blab it around, will you?)
Gone fishin' (keep it shady, I got me a big one staked out)
Mmm, you ain't workin' anymore (I don't have to work, I got me a piece of Gary)
Cows need milkin' in the barn (I have the twins on that detail, they each take a side)
But you just don't give a darn (give 'em four bits a cow and hand lotion)
You just never seem to learn (man, you taught me)
You ain't got no ambition (you're convincin' me)

Gone fishin' (bah-boo-dah-do-dah-do-dah-do)
Got your hound dog by your side (that's old Cindy-Lou goin' with me)
Gone fishin' (mmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
Fleas are bitin' at his hide (get away from me boy, you bother me)

Mmm, folks won't find us now because
Mister Satch and Mister Cros
We gone fishin' instead of just a-wishin'
Bah-boo-baby-bah-boo-bah-bay-mmm-bo-bay
Oh yeah!

Te Busco


Te Busco
Composer(s): Victor, Victor
Performer(s): Celia Cruz; Ana de la Reguera



Al cielo una mirada largaa
buscando un poco de mi vida
mis estrellas no responden
para alumbrarme hacia tu risa

Olas que esfuman de mis ojos
a una legion de tus recuerdos
me roban formas de tu rostro
dejando arena en el silencio

Te busco perdido entre suenos
el ruido de la gente
envuelvelo en un velo
te busco volando en el cielo
el viento te ha llevando como un panuelo viejo
y no hago mas que rebuscar
paisajes conocidos
en lugares tan extranos,que no puedo dar contigo

En cualquier huella te persigo (voy tras de ti)
en una sombra te dibujo (al recordar)
huellas y sombras que se pierden (de la soledad)
la suerte no vino conmigo

Coro: Intermedio (igual que estrofa)

Coro: Y te busco

My Baby Must Be A Magician


My Baby Must Be A Magician
Composer(s): Smokey Robinson
Performer(s): The Marvelettes



You are under my power
It is the power of love

Eyes that hypnotize
And all it takes is just once glance
Just one look at him
Puts me in a lover's trance

Now listen
No rabbits in his hand
No pigeons up his sleeve
But you better believe
When I prove he can do so much
My baby must be a magician 'cause he's sure got the magic touch

Oh my morale was low
Then he appeared just like a genie
His love has the power
He's my private great Houdini

No reading decks of cards
No cords that disappear
No special gear
Like Alladin's lamp and such
But my baby must be a magician 'cause he's sure got the magic touch

Whenever I'm feeling bad
My baby simply kisses me
And then Presto, Chango, Alakazam
I'm alright again oh yes I am
Yes I am alright

No mystic crystal ball
No long black flowing cape
But I can't escape
From his tender loving touch
Oh my baby must be a magician 'cause he's sure got the magic touch
Say my baby must be a magician 'cause he's sure got the magic touch

Gone Dead Train


Gone Dead Train
Composer(s): Jack Nitzsche; Russ Titelman
Performer(s): Nazareth;
and various other artists



It's a gone dead train
Yes, it's a gone dead train

My engine was pumpin' steam
And I was grindin' at you hard and fast
Burnin' down the rails, tryin' to heat the way
Haulin' ass and ridin' up the track
And I laughed at the conductor who was tellin' me my coal
It would never last

But then the fire in my boiler
Up and quit before I came
Ain't no empty cellar
Like a gone dead train

Once was at a time when I could
Mama shave 'em dry
And raise a fever ice-down chill
Waitin' at the station
With a heavy loaded sack
Savin' up and holdin' just to spill
Shootin' my supply through my demon's eye
Instead of holdin' my time, I hope I will

But then the fire in my boiler
Up and quit before I came
There ain't no empty cellar
Needs a gone dead train

Yes it's a gone dead train
I'm gonna teach it to learn now, now
It's a gone dead train
Yes it's a gone dead train
I'm gonna teach it to learn now, now
It's a gone dead train
Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to learn

There ain't no easy day
When your daily run's a downhill pull
And there ain't no easy way
Wishin' for some jelly roll
There ain't no switch been made
To make your juicy lemon find
A spring to run a dry well full

But then the fire in my boiler
Up and quit before I came
Ain't no empty cellar
Needs a gone dead train

Yes it's a gone dead train
I'm gonna teach it to learn
You know it's a gone dead train
Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to burn
It's a gone dead train
It's a gone dead train, you gotta learn
It's a gone dead train
Gonna teach it, gonna teach it, gonna teach it to burn

Te Apartas De Mi


Te Apartas De Mi
Performer(s): Compay Segundo



Dime porqué hoy te apratas de mí
dime porqué tú me tratas así
dime si ya se acabó aquel amor
que aquella vez me juraste tener
dime si es que hay otro amante
a quién quieras más que a mí

Si sabes que te quiero
con toda mi alma
que tuyo es mi cariño
que mi vida es para tí, mi bien
Porqué me martirizas, negándose tus besos
devuélveme la calma que un día le robaste
a mi fiel corazón

Gone At Last


Gone At Last
Composer(s): Paul Simon
Performer(s): Paul Simon;
and various other artists



The night was black, the roads were icy
Snow was fallin', drifts were high
And I was weary, from my driving
And I stopped to rest for a while
I sat down at a truck stop
I was thinking about my past
I've had a long streak of bad luck
But I'm praying it's gone at last

Gone, gone at last, gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last
I had a long streak of that bad luck
But I'm prayin' it's gone at last
0o, oo, oo, oo, oo

I ain't dumb
I kicked around some
I don't fall too easily
But that boy looked so dejected
He just grabbed my sympathy
Sweet little soul now, what's your problem?
Tell me why you're so downcast
I've had a long streak of bad luck
But I'm praying it's gone at last

Gone, gone at last, gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last
I had a long streak of that bad luck
But I'm prayin' it's gone at last
0o, oo, oo, oo, oo

Once in a while from out of nowhere
When you don't expect it, and you're unprepared
Somebody will come and lift you higher
And your burdens will be shared
Yes I do believe, if I hadn't met you
I might still be sinking fast
I've had a long streak of bad luck
But I'm praying it's gone at last

Gone, gone, gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last
I had a long streak of that bad luck
But I'm prayin' it's gone at last
Gone, gone, gone gone gone gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
I had a long streak of that bad luck
But I'm prayin' it's gone at last

Te Amaré Y Después


Te Amaré Y Después
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



Te amaré, te amaré como al mundo
Te amaré aunque tenga final

Te amaré, te amaré en lo profundo
Te amaré como tengo que amar

Te amaré, te amaré como pueda
Te amaré aunque no sea la paz

Te amaré, te amaré lo que queda
Te amaré cuando acabe de amar

Te amaré, te amaré si estoy muerto
Te amaré el día siguiente además

Te amaré, te amaré como siento
Te amaré con adiós, con jamás

Te amaré, te amaré junto al viento
Te amaré como único ser

Te amaré hasta el fin de los tiempos
Te amaré y después, te amaré

Tu Me Quittes


Tu Me Quittes
English Title: My Baby Left Me
Composer(s): R. Bernet; Arthur Crudup
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
(Originally performed by: Arthur Crudup)



Ce soir, tu me quittes, pourtant, dans mon coeur
Je n'ai pas de peine, je n'ai pas de peur

Si tu me quittes, si tu me quittes
Entre nous, ce n'était qu'un jeu
J'en suis bien heureux

Tout seul à ma fenêtre, oui, je te vois partir
Et mon coeur ne regrette pas un souvenir

Si tu me quittes, si tu me quittes
Entre nous, ce n'était qu'un jeu
J'en suis bien heureux

De ces promesses vaines que tu me faisais
De les entendre, je peux bien m'en passer

Si tu me quittes, si tu me quittes
Entre nous, ce n'était qu'un jeu
J'en suis bien heureux

Tout seul à ma fenêtre, oui, je te vois partir
Et mon coeur ne regrette pas un souvenir

Si tu me quittes, si tu me quittes
Entre nous, ce n'était qu'un jeu
J'en suis bien heureux

Entre nous, ce n'était qu'un jeu
J'en suis bien heureux

Gone Again


Gone Again
Composer(s): Jesse Oris Farrow
Performer(s): Quicksilver Messenger Service



You ask me why my mind goes to wanderin'
And how can I be so many people in the meantime
I try to tell you, but words can't find my way
All I can tell you is, believe me, I really understand
It goes round and round after round, I'm gone again
My mind gets lonely and my heart starts of ramblin'
With my sweet life, my crazy heart starts to gamblin'
The saddest of winds blow in my mind, stealing my time, o no, there I go again
I go round and round after round, I'm gone again
Some people tell me I think they hold on forever
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know if I could ever hold on forever
Lettin' go, lettin' go feels so groovy now, oo feels so groovy now
Sweet summer falls on my mind like the dawning
I watch the witches casting spells in the morning
Sing the stranger, the brewing, the sweet of the brew
To know what you're doing is so hard to do
It goes round and round and around, I'm gone again
Something tells me that maybe I can maintain forever
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know if I could ever hold on forever
Lettin' go, lettin' go feels so groovy now, oo feels so groovy now
I see a lady, my crazy heart starts to question
Can't we lay by here a while and love this one?
Then my sweet life comes dancing by, takes me by the hand
The sweetest romancing to the stranger will never never end
And I go with her, round and round and around, I'm gone again

My Baby Left Me


My Baby Left Me
French Title: Tu Me Quittes
Originally performed by: Arthur Crudup
Covered by various other artists



Yes, my baby left me, never said a word
Was it something I done, something that she heard?
You know she left me, my baby left me
My baby even left me, never said a word

But, I stand at my window, wring my hands and cry
I hate to lose that woman, hate to say goodbye
You know she left me, I say, she left me
My baby even left me, never said goodbye
Help me, boy!

And now, one of these mornings, Lord, it won't be long
You'll look for me and, Baby, Daddy he'll be gone
You know she left me, I say she left me
My baby even left me, never said a word

Now, I stand at my window, wring my hands and moan
All I know is that the one I love is gone
My baby left me, I say she left me
My baby even left me, never said goodbye
My baby even left me, never said goodbye

Te Amaré (Miguel Bosé)


Te Amaré
Composer(s): Miguel Bose - Juan Calderon
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé



Con la paz de las montantildeas te amare
Con locura y equilibrio te amare
Con la rabia de mis a&ntildeos
Como me ensentildeaste a hacer
Con un grito en carne viva, te amare

En secreto y en silencio te amare
Arriesgando en lo prohibido, te amare
En lo falso y en lo cierto
Con el corazon abierto
Por ser algo no perfecto, te amare

Te amare, te amare
Como no esta permitido
Te amare, te amare
Como nunca se ha sabido
Porque asi lo he decidido
Te amare...

Por ponerte algun ejemplo te dire
Que aunque tengas manos frias te amare
Con tu mala ortografia
Y tu no saber perder
Con defectos y manias, te amare

Te amare, te amare
Porque fuiste algo importante
Te amare, te amare
Cuando ya no estes presente
Seguiras siendo costumbre y te amare...

Al caer de cada noche esperare
A que seas luna llena y te amare
Y aunque queden pocos restos
En se&ntildeal de lo que fue
Seguiras cerca y muy dentro, te amare

Te amare, te amare
A golpe de recuerdo
Te amare, te amare
Hasta el ultimo momento
A pesar de todo, siempre te amare...

My Baby Just Cares For Me
Composer(s): Walter Donaldson; Gus Kahn
Originally performed by: Ethel Shutta

My baby don't care for shows
My baby don't care for clothes
My baby just cares for me

My baby don't care for cars and races
My baby don't care for high tone places

Elizabeth Taylor is not his style
And even Ricky Martin's smile
Is something he can't see
My baby don't care who knows it
My baby just cares for me

I wonder what's wrong with baby
My baby just cares for
He just says his prayers for
My baby just cares
For me

Golondrinas De Metal


Golondrinas De Metal
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo



Hace mucho tiempo te quería perdón
por cercar tu cuerpo por venderlo a un buen postor
Por tomar tus frutos sin dar gracias a Dios
Por las huellas sin razón

Tu cuerpo era verde, tu cuerpo era azul
Hoy tu piel está tallada en asfalto gris
Selvas de cemento que el cielo quieren tocar
de más alto caerán

Madre Tierra
no debes llorar
porque la Humanidad
pronto cambiará
Madre Tierra
no debes temblar
porque la humanidad
calor te dará

Madre hoy te vuelan golondrinas de metal
aves que no cantan y que saben pelear
Hasta ,la cigüeña ha dejado de volar
Nadie la quiere esperar

Madre hoy el tiempo se ha escapado del reloj
y una paloma va volando hacia el sol
En sus alas lleva nostalgias del calor
que en la tierra no encontró

Madre Tierra
no debes llorar
porque la Humanidad
pronto cambiará
Madre Tierra
no debes temblar
porque la humanidad
calor te dará

Te Amaré
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo



Te amaré
porque eres una más
en esta gran ciudad
sólo una más

Te amaré
porque en la calle vas
callada sin hablar
y sin mirar

Te amaré
pequeña entre un millón
porque quiero oír tu voz
porque yo te puedo ver

Y te amaré porque en esta ciudad
tú eres todo lo que puedo amar
y buscaré un lugar a nuestro amor
para que un día pueda ver el sol

Te amaré
porque en la multitud
aún sigues siendo tú
en la ciudad
