My Pa
My Pa
Composer(s): Michael Leonard; Herbert Martin
Performer(s): Barbra Streisand; Bill Wright
My Pa can light my room at night
By just his being near
And make a fear for dream all right
By grinning ear to ear
My Pa can do most anything
He sets his mind to do
He'd even move a mountain
If he really wanted to
My Pa can sweeten up a day
That clouds and rain make gray
And tell me funny stories
That will chase the clouds away
My Pa's the only one on Earth
I can tell my troubles to
His arms are house and home to me
His face's a pretty poem to me
My Pa's the finest friend I ever knew
I only wish that you
Could know him too...

Great Balls Of Fire
Great Balls Of Fire
Composer(s): Otis Blackwell; Jack Hammer
Performer(s): Jerry Lee Lewis
You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too much love drives a man insane
You broke my will, but what a thrill
Goodness, gracious, great balls of fire
I laughed at love 'cause I thought it was funny
You came along and moved me honey
I've changed my mind, your love is fine
Goodness, gracious, great balls of fire
Kiss me baby, woo feels good
Hold me baby, well I want to love you like a lover should
You're fine, so kind
I want to tell the world that you're mine, mine, mine, mine
I chew my nails and I twiddle my thumbs
I'm real nervous, but it sure is fun
Come on baby, drive me crazy
Goodness, gracious, great balls of fire!!

Tennessee Bird Walk
Tennessee Bird Walk
Composer(s): Jack Blanchard
Performer(s): Jack Blanchard & Misty Morgan
Take away the trees and the birds'll have to sit upon the ground... ummmm...
And take away their wings and the birds'll have to walk to get around
And take away the bird baths and dirty birds will soon be everywhere
Take away their feathers and the birds'll walk around in underwear
Take away their (a little whistle) and the birds will have to whisper when they sing (verbal "chirp chirp")
And take away their common sense and they'll be headed southward in the spring
Oh remember me darling when spring is in the air
And the bald-headed birds are whispering everywhere
You can see them walkin' southward in their dirty underwear
That's the Tennessee Bird Walk
How bout some trees so the birds won't have to sit upon the ground... ummmm...
And how 'bout some wings so the birds won't have to walk to get around
And how 'bout a bird bath or two so the birds'll all be clean
And how 'bout some feathers so their underwear no longer will be seen
How 'bout a (little whistle) so the birds won't have to whisper when they sing
And how 'bout some common sense so they won't be blockin' traffic in the spring
Oh remember me my darling when spring is in the air
And the bald-headed birds are whispering everywhere
When you see them walkin' southward in their dirty underwear
That's the Tennessee Bird Walk (chirp chirp)
That's the Tennessee Bird Walk (chirp chirp)
That's the Tennessee Bird Walk (chirp chirp)
That's the Tennessee Bird Walk (chirp chirp)

Revvin' up my engine like a 747 baby

Tennessee (Jan & Dean)
Tennessee
Composer(s): Russell - Cason
Performer(s): Jan & Dean
"Bop-bop-bop"
Sweeter than the birds that go in the trees
That's what she meant to me
Sweeter than the wine & she looked so fine
When she met me in Tennessee
I felt so grand when she took my hand
And said "Come go with me"
Held me tight on a moonlit night
Someplace in Tennessee
"Bop-bop-bop"
"Bop-bop-bop"
Sweeter than the birds that go in the trees
That's what she meant to me
Sweeter than the wine & she looked so fine
When I met her in Tennessee
I felt so grand when she took my hand
And said "Come go with me"
Held me tight on a moonlit night
Someplace in Tennessee
"Bop-bop-bop"

My own true love

Know you by your kiss
And by your kiss
You've shown true love
I'm yours forever
My own true love
My own true love

Grease
Grease
Composer(s): Barry Gibb
Performer(s): Frankie Valli;
and various other artists
I solve my problems and I see the light
We gotta plug and think, we gotta feed it right
There ain't no danger we can go to far
We start believing now that we can be who we are
Grease is the word
They think our love is just a growing pain
Why don't they understand, It's just a crying shame
Their lips are lying only real is real
We start to find right now we got to be what we feel
Grease is the word
Grease is the word, is the word that you heard
It's got groove it's got meaning
Grease is the time, is the place is the motion
Grease is the way we are feeling
We take the pressure and we throw away
Conventionality belongs to yesterday
There is a chance that we can make it so far
We start believing now that we can be wo we are
Grease is the word
Grease is the word, is the word that you heard
It's got groove it's got meaning
Grease is the time, is the place is the motion
Grease is the way we are feeling
This is the life of illusion
Wrapped up in trouble laced with confusion
What we doing here?
We take the pressure and we throw away
Conventionality belongs to yesterday
There is a chance that we can make it so far
We start believing now that we can be who we are
Grease is the word
Grease is the word, is the word that you heard
It's got groove it's got meaning
Grease is the time, is the place is the motion
Grease is the way we are feeling
Grease is the word, is the word that you heard
It's got groove it's got meaning
Grease is the time, is the place is the motion
Grease is the way we are feeling
Grease is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word

Tennessee (Carl Perkins)
Tennessee
Composer(s): Carl Perkins
First recording/First release by: Carl Perkins - 1956/1957
Now there are folks who like to brag about where they came from
But when they start that stuff I let 'em be
But it makes me feel like I wanna brag some
To know that I come from the state of Tennessee
Let's give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it up in Nashville everyday
Let's give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it in that old Hillbilly way
Mister Red Foley came from Kentucky
Now, Ernest Tubb down in Texas, don't you see
But if all you folks out there can remember
Mister Eddy Arnold came from Tennessee
Let's give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it up in Nashville everyday
Let's give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it in that old hillbilly way
They make bombs they say, that can blow up our world, dear
Well a country boy like me, I will agree
But if all you folks out there can remember
They made the first atomic bomb in Tennessee
Let's give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it up in Nashville everyday
Let's give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it in that old hillbilly way
Let's give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it up in Nashville everyday
Let's give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it in that old hillbilly way

Wie Heeft De Sleutel Van De Jukebox Gezien
Wie Heeft De Sleutel Van De Jukebox Gezien
Performer(s): Cocktail Trio
Heehee, heehee, heehee, heehee
He! Yup
He! Ja
Zet die plaat af! Dat kan niet
Waarom niet? De sleutel van de jukebox is weg
Wie heeft de sleutel van de jukebox gezien
Wie heeft ‘m ergens gevonden misschien
Wie heeft de sleutel van de jukebox gezien
Want de plaat is kapot en dat ding zit op slot
Op de jukebox stond een plaatje dat bleef hangen op dat “heehee”
En de sleutel van de jukebox bleek verdwenen in dat café
Dus eenieder liep met zo’n gezicht want die jukebox zat potdicht
En de stroom uitschakelen kon niet, dat bleek ook de knop van ‘t licht
Wie heeft de sleutel van de jukebox gezien
Wie heeft ‘m ergens gevonden misschien
Wie heeft de sleutel van de jukebox gezien
Want de plaat is kapot en dat ding zit op slot
De kastelijn nam toen de lichtknop en zei “wie er nog wat lust
Moet ‘t voor ‘t donker maar zeggen, we krijgen tien minuten rust”
Maar zonder licht in een café, hoe komt ‘n mens op dat idee
‘t Werd me ‘n trammelant in ‘t donker, je hoorde aan alle kanten “heehee”
Wie heeft de sleutel van de jukebox gezien
Wie heeft ‘m ergens gevonden misschien
Wie heeft de sleutel van de jukebox gezien
Want de plaat is kapot en dat ding zit op slot
En de mensen die daar woonden, aan de zij- en overkant
Namen ook die kreet al over, he wat is daar aan de hand
Toen eenieder dol geworden was kwam er een hamer bij te pas
En daar kijk, heehee, lag de sleutel, in de scherven achter ‘t glas
Asjemenou buuuuh
Wie heeft de sleutel van de jukebox gezien
Wie heeft ‘m ergens gevonden misschien
Wie heeft de sleutel van de jukebox gezien
Want de plaat is kapot en dat ding zit op slot
Lalalalalalalalalalala
Lalalalalalalalalala
Lalalalalalalalalalala
Lalalalalalalalalalalala
Wie heeft de sleutel van de jukebox gezien
Wie heeft ‘m ergens gevonden misschien
Wie heeft de sleutel van de jukebox gezien
Want de plaat is kapot en dat ding zit op slot
Heehee, heehee, heehee, heehee
Heehee, heehee, heehee, heehee

Grazing In The Grass
Composer(s): Harry Elston; Philemon Hou
Performer(s): The Friends Of Distinction;
and various other artists
Sure is mellow grazin' in the grass
(grazin' in the grass, yes, baby, can you dig it?)
What a trip just watchin' as the world goes past
(grazin' in the grass, yes, baby, can you dig it?)
There are too many groovy things to see while grazin' in the grass
(grazin' in the grass, yes, baby, can you dig it?)
Flowers with colours for takin', everything outta sight
(grazin' in the grass, yes, baby, can you dig it?)
The sun peekin' out between the leaves
(grazin' in the grass, yes, baby, can you dig it?)
And the bir-ir-ir-irds dartin' in and out of the trees
(grazin' in the grass, yes, baby, can you dig it?)
Everything here is so clear, you can see it
And everything here is so real, you can feel it
And it's real, so real, so real, so real, so real, so real
Can you dig it?
I can dig it, he can dig it, she can dig it
we can dig it, they can dig it, you can dig it
Oh, let's dig it
Can you dig it, baby?
I can dig it, he can dig it, she can dig it
we can dig it, they can dig it, you can dig it
Oh, let's dig it
Can you dig it, baby?
The sun peekin' out between the leaves
(grazin' in the grass, yes, baby, can you dig it?)
And the bir-ir-ir-irds dartin' in and out of the trees
(grazin' in the grass, yes, baby, can you dig it?)
Everything here is so clear, you can see it
And everything here is so real, you can feel it
And it's real, so real, so real, so real, so real, so real
Can you dig it?
I can dig it, he can dig it, she can dig it
we can dig it, they can dig it, you can dig it
Oh, let's dig it
Can you dig it, baby?
I can dig it, he can dig it, she can dig it
we can dig it, they can dig it, you can dig it
Oh, let's dig it
Can you dig it, baby?

Tengo Sed
Tengo Sed
Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
"Tengo sed"
te oí decir con el aliento
apenas
Y te arrullé, como a un recién nacido
contra mis pechos ávidos
de labios tuyos
Te dí de beber
Y luego de saciarte, volviste
a repetir
"tengo sed"
sin aliento
apenas
Te arrullé, esta vez
entre mis muslos
y de nuevo
te di de beber
En la fuente de la vida
y de la muerte, sellaste
con un beso
el último suspiro

My Own
My Own
Composer(s): Harold Adamson; Jimmy McHugh
Performer(s): Deanna Durbin
and various other artists
My own, let me call you my own
Let me make you a part of the song in my heart
Alone, I’m just living in vain
Everything that I do is depending on you
Show me your sign of your longing for me
Say you are mine, and forever that you will be
My own, every dream I have known
Has been built of but one desire
Just to call you my own
Show me your sign of your longing for me
Say you are mine, and forever that you will be
My own, every dream I have known
Has been built of but one desire
Just to call you my own
Show me your sign of your longing for me
Say you are mine, and forever that you will be
My own, every dream I have known
Has been built of but one desire
Just to call you my own

Grazie, Prego, Scusi
Composer(s): Calabrese; Massara; Mogol
Performer(s): Adriano Celentano
Al matinèe
del giovedì
ballo liscio
al Garden Blu
con l'orchestra Serenade
Spengono le luci
tacciono le voci
e nel buio senti sussurrar
Prego:
vuoi ballare con me?...
Grazie,
preferisco di no:
non ballo il tango col casquè
perciò...
grazie.
Prego, grazie, scusi...
tornerò
Al matinèe
del Garden Blu
richii premi
e cotillons,
fascia d'oro per la Miss
Spengono le luci
tacciono le voci
e nel buio senti sussurrar...
Non ballo il tango col casquè
perciò...
grazie.
Prego, grazie, scusi...
tornerò!

Aldrig Mer
Aldrig Mer
((Adapted from: Che Sarà (Ricchi E Poveri) - 1971))
((French Version: Qui Saura (Mike Brant) - 1972))
Composer(s): Jimmy Fontana - Nicola Greco - Franco Migliacci - Carlo Pes - Stig Anderson
Performer(s): Hootenanny Singers - 1971
Så lämnar jag den by som sett mej födas
snart sover den en evig törnrossömn
Ty borta är dess ungdom, blott de gamla lever kvar
i denna bygd som en gång blomstrat har
Aldrig mer, aldrig mer, aldrig mer!
Det finns ingen som kan ändra det som sker
Aldrig mer hörs skratt från ängen
glada röster - Ingenting
Mörk och dyster ruvar skogen runtomkring
Här sprang det nakna barn i sommarns dagar
och klövern stod så saftig och så grön
Vi badade i viken och det hördes glada skratt
från ungdom i den ljusa sommarnatt
Aldrig mer, aldrig mer, aldrig mer!
Det finns ingen som kan ändra det som sker
När de gamlas röster tystnat
då är stillheten total
Skulle någon minnas sen en öde dal?
Man måste alltid gå i takt med tiden
dum vore jag att ensam spjärna mot
Men ändå känns det som jag svikit någon gammal vän
Farväl, vi kanske aldrig ses igen
Aldrig mer, aldrig mer, aldrig mer!
Det finns ingen som kan ändra det som sker
Det finns ingen plats för tårar
ingen anledning till gråt
Det är ändå ingenting att göra åt

My Oriental Girl
My Oriental Girl
Composer(s): Edward Beck; Milton E. Schwarzwald
Far off where the lonely caravan winds on its way
In that distant land
Proud Sheik dreaming of his sweetheart who is waiting there
Far o'er the desert sands
He'll forget the deserts whirl
When he meets his Oriental Girl My
Night winds seem to whisper of his love so far away
Stars remind him of her eyes
Still he knows to meet her he must journey night and day
And that is why he sighs
But tho' deserts may be wide
Soon he'll see his Oriental Bride My
Oriental Girl Oriental Girl
A face that's so entrancing
And eyes with fire dancing
A form that keeps you glancing all the while
O'er the desert wide
Come to my side
Let me protect you
So no one will get you
Be my Oriental Bride

Grazie Roma
Grazie Roma
Performer(s): Antonello Venditti
Dimmi cos'è
che ci fa sentire amici anche se non ci conosciamo
dimmi cos'è
che ci fa sentire uniti anche se siamo lontani
dimmi cos'è cos'è
che batte forte forte forte in fondo al cuore
che ci toglie il respiro e ci parla d'amore
Grazie Roma che ci fai piangere abbracciati ancora
Grazie Roma, grazie Roma che ci fai vivere e sentire ancora
una persona nuova
Dimmi cos'è cos'è
quella stella grande grande in fondo al cielo
che brilla dentro di te e grida forte forte dal tuo cuore
Grazie Roma che ci fai piangere abbracciati ancora
Grazie Roma, grazie Roma che ci fai vivere e sentire ancora
una persona nuova
Dimmi chi è
che me fa sentì 'mportante anche se nun conto niente
che me fa Re quando sento le campane la domenica mattina
Dimmi che è chi è
che me fa campà sta vita così piena de problemi
e che me da coraggio se tu non me voi bene
Grazie Roma che ci fai piangere abbracciati ancora
Grazie Roma, grazie Roma che ci fai vivere e sentire ancora
una persona nuova

Tengo Que Parar
Tengo Que Parar
Composer(s): Miguel Mateos
Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
(Me encanta cantar este tema)
Como un estúpido bajo la lluvia
corriendo taxis sin saber qué hacer
nadie tiene fuego, ni siquiera un cospel
Necesito hacer esa llamada
necesito un poco de control
La cosa viene mal, la tengo que parar
Tengo que parar, tengo que parar
¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que parar!
Alguien me sigue, doy vuelta en la esquina
hay sueños que no puedo borrar
veo un negrito con un diccionario
que le cura las heridas
con la lengua a un millonario
Veo misiles en la 9 de Julio
apuntándole a mi oso peluche
Lo veo a Reagan, Jimi Hendrix y Evita
en una mesa del Sheraton
deshojando margaritas
Tengo que parar, tengo que parar
¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que parar!
Uno, dos y tres; uno, dos y tres
desnudo en el espejo
me miro una vez, me miro otra vez
y no descubro nunca quién es
¿Quién soy? ¿Quién es? ¿Quién soy? ¿Quizás?
Me desperté con la TV al mango
sin cigarrillos, ni pastillas, ni alcohol
quiero café con leche
nena no me eches
Esta noche incendiaré mi auto
tendrás que darme refugio
nadie sabrá dónde estamos
será señal que paramos
Tengo que parar, tengo que parar
¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que parar!
Todo va mejor, todo va mejor
con un poco de amor
todo va mejor, todo va mejor
con un poquito así, así de amor
Amor...! amor...!
I love you...
Ti voglio bene...
Je t'aime...
Amor...!
I love you... oh! oh!
She loves you ¡Yea, yea, yea!
All you need is love
Tengo que parar
y tengo que empezarte a amar
