Te Quiero, Te Quiero, Te Quiero
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez

Yo te voy a decir
lo que nunca te han dicho
este amor, que es tu amor
te lo va a repetir

Te quiero, te quiero, te quiero

Cuando no estas
cuando te vas
te quiero
cuando me sientes
y me consientes
te quiero

Te quiero, te quiero, te quiero
te quiero, te quiero
te quiero, te quiero, te quiero
te quiero, te quiero

Es mi alegría
cuando eras mía
te quiero
cuando me besas
en mis tristezas
te quiero

Te quiero, te quiero, te quiero
te quiero, te quiero
te quiero, te quiero, te quiero
te quiero, te quiero

Te quiero, te quiero, te quiero
te quiero, te quiero

My Coloring Book


My Coloring Book French Title: Portrait En Couleurs
Composer(s): Fred Ebb; John Kander
Performer(s): Kitty Kallen
and various other artists



For those who fancy coloring books
As certain people do
Here's a new one for you
A most unusual coloring book
The kind you never see
Crayons ready, very well
Begin to color me
These are the eyes that watched him
As he walked away
Color them grey
This is the heart that thought
He would always be true
Color it blue
These are the arms that held him
And touched him then lost him somehow
Color them empty now
These are the beads I wore
Until she came between
Color them green
This is the room I sleep in
And walk in and weep in
Hiding that nobody sees
Color it lonely, please
This is the man
The one I depended upon
Color him go...

Good Friend


Good Friend
Composer(s): Elmer Bernstein; Norman Gimbel
Performer(s): Mary MacGregor



If you let me

I could be your good friend
I know that if you let me
We could walk together

We're not so different at all
Though we may have different dreams
When they fall apart we hurt the same it seems

I'm so sure so don't you bet me

I just know that if you let me
I'll show you that I could be your good friend

Someone to share your good times
Someone who you can count on
That someone, who when you turn to
Won't turn away

Repeat

Te Quiero, Te Quiero


Te Quiero, Te Quiero
Composer(s): Augusto Algueró - Nino Bravo - Rafael DeLeon
Performer(s): Nino Bravo
and multiple other artists



De por qué te estoy queriendo
No me pidas la razón
Pues yo mismo no me entiendo
Con mi propio corazón
Mi canción desesperada
Al llegar la madrugada
Te dará la explicación
Te quiero vida mía
Te quiero noche y día
No he querido nunca así
Te quiero con ternura
Con rabia, con locura
Sólo vivo para ti
Yo te seré siempre fiel
Pues para mí quiero en flor
Ese clavel de tu piel y de tu amor
Mi voz igual que un niño
Te pide con cariño
Ven a mí, abrázame
Porque te quiero
Te quiero, te quiero
Te quiero, te quiero, te quiero
Y hasta el fin te querré

My Clone Sleeps Alone


My Clone Sleeps Alone
Composer(s): Roger Capps; Pat Benatar
Performer(s): Pat Benatar



My Clone Sleeps Alone
You know and I know My Clone Sleeps Alone
She's out on her own - forever
She's programmed to work hard, she's never profane
She won't go insane, not ever

No V.D., no cancer, on T.V.'s the answer
No father, no mother, she's just like the other
And you know and I know, My Clone Sleeps Alone

Your clone loves my clone, but yours cannot see
That's no way to be, in heaven
No sorrow, no heartache, just clone harmony
So obviously, it's heaven

No naughty clone ladies allowed in the eighties
No bed names, no sex games, just clone names and clone games
And you know and I know My Clone Sleeps Alone

Before we existed the cloning began
The cloning of man and woman
When we're gone they'll live on, cloned endlessly
It's mandatory in heaven

But they won't remember or ever be tender
No loving, no caring, no program for pairing
No V.D., no cancer, on T.V.'s the answer
No father, no mother, she's just like the other

No naughty clone ladies allowed in the eighties
And you know and I know My Clone Sleeps Alone
My Clone Sleeps Alone!
My Clone Sleeps Alone!

Te Quiero Mucho


Te Quiero Mucho
Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
Performer(s): Raphael



No digas más
Que en estos días te has cansado ya de mí
No digas más
Que ya mi amor tú no lo puedes resistir
Te quiero mucho, te quiero mucho
Te quiero mucho, corazón
Si tú te vas
Yo no podría nunca, nunca ser feliz
Si tú te vas
Te llevarías mi alegría junto a ti
Te quiero mucho, te quiero mucho
Te quiero mucho, corazón
Tú te tienes que quedar
No me debes olvidar
No lo pienses, no lo pienses
No lo pienses más
Que más te da
Vivir conmigo solamente un poco más
Puedes probar
Y si después no te convenzo ya te vas
Te quiero mucho, te quiero mucho
Te quiero mucho, corazón

My City Was Gone


My City Was Gone
Composer(s): Chrissie Hynde
Performer(s): The Pretenders



I went back to Ohio
But my city was gone
There was no train station
There was no downtown
South Howard had disappeared
All my favorite places
My city had been pulled down
Reduced to parking spaces
A, O, Oh way to go Ohio

Well I went back to Ohio
But my family was gone
I stood on the back porch
There was nobody home
I was stunned and amazed
My childhood memories
Slowly swirled past
Like the wind through the trees
A, O, Oh way to go Ohio

I went back to Ohio
But my pretty countryside
Had been paved down the middle
By a Government that had no pride
The farms of Ohio
Had been replaced by shopping malls
And Muzak filled the air
From Seneca to Cuyahoga Falls
Said, A, O, Oh way to go Ohio

Good Day Sunshine


Good Day Sunshine
((French Version: Entre Tes Bras (Renée Martel) - 1970)) Composer(s): John Lennon - Paul McCartney First release: The Beatles - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists



Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine

I need to laugh, and when the sun is out
I've got something I can laugh about
I feel good, in a special way
I'm in love and it's a sunny day

Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine

We take a walk, the sun is shining down
Burns my feet as they touch the ground

Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine

Then we lie beneath a shady tree
I love her and she's loving me
She feels good, she know she's looking fine
I'm so proud to know that she is mine

Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine
Good day sunshine

"El trust de los Tenorios"
Te quiero, Morena, te quiero
como se quiere la gloria
como se quiere el dinero
como se quiere a una madre

Me muero Baturra
Me muero
Por tu boquita de rosa
Por tu reir zalamero
por los ojos de tu cara
me muero
Es la jota que siempre canté
la sal de mi tierra
Olé!

My Cherie Amour


My Cherie Amour
Composer(s): Henry Cosby; Sylvia Moy; Stevie Wonder
Originally performed by: Stevie Wonder
Covered by various other artists



La la la la la la
La la la la la la

My Cherie Amour, lovely as a summer's day
My Cherie Amour, distant as the Milky Way
My Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine

In a cafe or sometimes on a crowded street
I've been near you, but you never notice me
My Cherie Amour, won't you tell me how could you ignore
That behind that little smile I wore
How I wish that you were mine

Maybe someday you'll see my face among the crowd
Maybe someday I'll share your little distant cloud
Oh, Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine

La la la la la la
La la la la la la

Good Clean Fun


Good Clean Fun
Composer(s): Michael Nesmith
Performer(s): The Monkees; Last Train Home



There's a smile on the wind as it touches my face
And starts to erase all the gloom
And the sun with a kiss, begins to dismiss the
Memory of my life without you
Well it seems like yesterday that my path took me away
Although I know it's been at least a year
But now my path heads home
And your patient time alone
Has brought me even closer to you, dear

And this plane gets closer
Every minute I look down to a watch that keeps looking back at me
And it says to me, "Be patient son you've waited this long"
How can I be strong?

And this the plane gets closer
Every minute I look down to watch that keeps looking back at me
And it says to me, "Be patient son you've waited this long"
How can I be strong?

Well the plane is finally down
And the engines stopped their sound
And I look in the crowd and there you stand
And the gap that once was time
Is forever closed behind
I told you I'd come back and here I am...

Te Quiero Dijiste


Te Quiero Dijiste
((English Version: Magic Is The Moonlight (Cliff Richard) - 1965))
Composer(s): María Grever
First release by: Cliff Richard and The Shadows
Covered by multiple other artists



Te quiero, dijiste tomando mis manos
entre tus manitas de blanco marfil
Y sentí en mi pecho un fuerte latido después un suspiro
y luego el chasquido de un beso febril

Muñequita linda de cabellos de oro
de dientes de perla, labios de rubí
Dime si me quieres cómo yo te quiero
si de mí te acuerdas como yo de ti

Y a veces escucho un eco divino
que envuelto en la brisa parece decir
Sí te quiero mucho, mucho, mucho, mucho
tanto como entonces siempre hasta morir

My Canary Has Circles Under His Eyes


My Canary Has Circles Under His Eyes Composer(s): Ted Kohler; Eddie Pola; Jack Golden Performer(s): Debroy Somers & His Orch. - 1930 and multiple other artists



Mister Press Man, here's some news You can print it if you choose Just to show that times have changed a lot Though it may sound strange to you It is absolutely true You can believe it.......or not Since making whoopee became all the rage It's even got into the old birdcage My canary has circles under his eyes He used to whistle 'The Prisoner's Song' Now he does snake-hips the whole day long My canary has circles under his eyes His only pals are the Meadow Lark And just a tiny sparrow But I am afraid when he's in the park He leaves the straight and narrow I raised this bird in a manner so strict Now I feel certain I'm being tricked My canary has circles under his eyes His only pals are the Meadow Lark And just a tiny sparrow But I am afraid when he's in the park He leaves the straight and narrow I raised this bird in a manner so strict Now I feel certain I'm being tricked My canary has circles under his eyes My canary has circles under his eyes

Good Christian Soldier


Good Christian Soldier
Composer(s): Bobby Bare; Billy Joe Shaver
Performer(s): Kris Kristofferson; Bobby Bare



Not so long ago in Oklahoma
The son of an Okie preacher knelt to pray
He said Lord I wanna be a Christian soldier just like you
And fight to build a new and better day

Now many years and miles from Oklahoma
That same young Okie boy still kneels to pray
But he don't pray to be no Christian soldier anymore
He just prays to make it through another day

Cause it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun
And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry
But we're playin' cards writin' home havin' lots of fun
Telling jokes and learning how to die

Now the things I've come to know seem so confusin'
It's gettin' hard to tell what's wrong from right
I can't seperate the winners from the losers anymore
And I'm thinking of just giving up the fight

Cause it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun
And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry
But we're playin' cards writin' home ain't we hadn't fun
Turning on and learning how to die

Te Quiero A Ti


Te Quiero A Ti
Composer(s): R. Girado
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo



No me importa saber que no he sido el primero
que tus labios besó y te dijo te quiero

No me importa saber que han habido ya otros
que pidieron tu amor y lo tuvieron todo

Te quiero a ti, tan sólo a ti
y al sabor de tus besos
te quiero a ti

Te quiero a ti, tan sólo a ti
estés cerca o muy lejos
te quiero a ti

No me importa saber que dirán de nosotros
si queremos vivir nuestro amor como locos

No me importa saber que hay escrito en tu vida
de quién fuiste mujer si hoy yo sé que eres mía

Te quiero a ti, tan sólo a ti
y al sabor de tus besos
te quiero a ti

Te quiero a ti, tan sólo a ti
estés cerca o muy lejos
te quiero a ti

My Cairo Maid


My Cairo Maid
Composer(s): Bud De Sylva; G. Foster; Chris Schonberg



Dreaming, I am always dreaming
When the stars are gleaming, of my Cairo maid
I believe she wants me
For her mem'ry haunts me
I sit and pine till skies are graying, saying

Smiling, I can see her smiling
in her way beguiling, as the shadows fall
For the moon above her
Tells her that I love her
And will return o'er desert, swinging, singing

I know a maid in Cairo
In dreamy Cairo, beside the Nile
I know she's yearning, her heart is burning for my returning
so, for a while, I'll travel upon my camel
o'er scorching gravel unto my shrine
Which means, that I'll go to dreamy Cairo and make this Cairo maiden mine

Good Captain Clack


Good Captain Clack
Composer(s): Gary Brooker; Keith Reid
Performer(s): Procol Harum



Still scowling black
good Captain Clack
must eat his humble pie
His bed is made
the colours fade
his eyes once wet are dry

The naked muse
who sits and chews
tobacco off a tree
removes his shoes
gives way to booze
and searches endlessly

See the naked jumberlack
sip his aphrodisiac
Cotton-picking farmers three
Though I lost my weather vane
and of sense I have one grain
I'm content sipping lemon tea

Te Quiero


Te Quiero
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



"Ah, pero no: la vida es una cosa
tan llena de salud maravillosa
es un regalo de placer tan fiero
es un juego tan útil, tan demente
que ya he vuelto a creer absurdamente
porque dijiste nada más: te quiero"
-Carilda Oliver Labra-

Te quiero
así, de pronto
así de tonto... pero
te quiero
Te quiero
así de claro
así de raro...
pero te quiero
Te quiero
así de burdo
así de absurdo... pero
te quiero
Pero esta noche tristeza obliga
más que a la amante quiero a la amiga
Más que tu pan, quiero tu miga

My Buddy


My Buddy
Composer(s): Gus Kahn; Walter Donaldson
Originally performed by: Alvino Rey
Covered by various other artists



Life is a book that we study
Some of its leaves bring a sigh
There it was written by a buddy
That we must part, you and I

Nights are long since you went away
I think about you all through the day
My buddy, my buddy
Nobody quite so true

Miss your voice, the touch of your hand
Just long to know that you understand
My buddy, my buddy
Your buddy misses you

Miss your voice, the touch of your hand
Just long to know that you understand
My buddy, my buddy
Your buddy misses you

Your buddy misses you, yes I do
