Choo Choo Ch'boogie
Choo Choo Ch'boogie
((French Version: Choo Choo Ch'boogie Espion Bidon (Eddy Mitchell) - 1975))
Composer(s): Denver Darling - Milt Gabler - Vaughn Horton
First release by: Louis Jordan - 1946
Covered by multiple other artists
Headin' for the station with a pack on my back
Tired of transportation in the back of a hack
I love to hear the rhythm of the clickety-clack
Hear the lonesome whistle, see the smoke from the stack
Pal around with Democratic fellows named Mac
Take me right back to the track, Jack
Choo choo, choo choo ch'boogie
Woo woo, woo woo ch'boogie
Choo choo, choo choo ch'boogie
Take me right back to the track, Jack
You wake up in the morning feelin' sharp as a tack
You open up a pack and then you gobble a snack
Then smoke a cigarette you didn't get in the pack
While takin' off your shoes so you can empty the slack
Ain't nothin' you can do about the dough that you lack
But beat it right back to the track, Jack
Choo choo, choo choo ch'boogie
Woo woo, woo woo ch'boogie
Choo choo, choo choo ch'boogie
Take me right back to the track, Jack
You reach your destination, but alas and alack
You need some compensation to get back in the black
You take a morning paper from the top of the rack
And read the situation from the front to the back
The only job that's open needs a man with a knack
You put it right back in the rack, Jack
Choo choo, choo choo ch'boogie
Woo woo, woo woo ch'boogie
Choo choo, choo choo ch'boogie
Take me right back to the track, Jack
Gonna settle down by the railroad track
Live the life of Riley in the beaten-down shack
So when I hear the whistle I can peep through the crack
And watch the train a-rollin' when it's ballin' the jack
I just love the rhythm of the clickety-clack
Take me right back to the track, Jack
Choo choo, choo choo ch'boogie
Woo woo, woo woo ch'boogie
Choo choo, choo choo ch'boogie
Take me right back to the track, Jack
Take me right back to the track, Jack!
Take me right back to the track, Jack!

Red Sails In The Sunset
Red Sails In The Sunset
Composer(s): Jimmy Kennedy; Tony Williams
Performer(s): The Platters;
and various other artists
'Twas down where fisher folk gather
I wander'd far from the throng
I heard a fisher girl singing
And this refrain was her song
(Chorus)
Red sails in the sunset
'Way out on the sea
Oh! carry my loved one
Home safely to me
He sailed at the dawning
All day I've been blue
Red sails in the sunset
I'm trusting in you
Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And he goes sailing no more
Red sails in the sunset
'Way out on the sea
Oh! carry my loved one
Home safely to me
Red sails, the night wind is blowing
And clouds are hiding the moon
Above no bright stars are glowing
It means the storm's coming soon

The Moon Was Yellow
The Moon Was Yellow
Composer(s): Fred E. Ahlert - Edgar Leslie
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
and multiple other artists
The moon was yellow and the night was young
A smile brought us together, and I was wond’ring whether
We’d meet again some day
The moon was yellow and the song was sung
That vocal inspiration gave me the inclination
To give my heart away
Here we are, is our romance to continue?
Will it be my luck to win you?
May I look that far?
My love is mellow and my hopes are strung
Around that Cupid fellow
Behold, the moon is yellow and the night is young
My love is mellow and my hopes are strung
Around that Cupid fellow
Behold, the moon is yellow and the night is young

Choc'late Ice Cream Cone
Choc'late Ice Cream Cone
Composer(s): Famous Lashua
Performer(s): The Maddox Brothers & Rose
and multiple other artists
My Mama said if I'd be good
She'd send me to the store
She said she'd bake some gingerbread
If I would sweep the floor
She said if I would make the bed
And watch the telephone
That she would send me out
To get a chocolate ice cream cone
And so I did the things she said
And then she made some gingerbread
Then I went out, just me alone
And got my chocolate ice cream cone
While coming back I stubbed my toe
Upon a big old stone
Now need I tell you that I dropped
My chocolate ice cream cone
A little puppy came along
And he took a great big lick
And then I hit that mean old dog
With just a little stick
Then he bit me where I sit down
And he chased me all over town
And now I'm lost I can't find my home
And all because of that chocolate ice cream cone
And all because of that chocolate ice cream cone
And all because of that chocolate, chocolate
Chocolate ice cream cone

Red Rubber Ball
Red Rubber Ball
Composer(s): Paul Simon; Bruce Woodley
Performer(s): The Seekers;
and various other artists
I should have known you'd bid me farewell
There's a lesson to be learned from this and I learned it very well
Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me
And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball
You never cared for secrets I'd confide
For you I'm just an ornament, somethin' for your pride
Always runnin', never carin', that's the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time were all you had to give
And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball
The story's in the past with nothin' to recall
I've got my life to live and I don't need you at all
The roller coaster ride we took is nearly at an end
I bought my ticket with my tears, that's all I'm gonna spend
And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball
Oh, oh, oh
I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

Covered by multiple other artists
The Moon of Manakoora filled the night
With magic Polynesian charms
The moon of Manakoora came in sight
And brought you to my eager arms
The Moon of Manakoora soon will rise
Again above the island shore
Then I'll behold it in your dusky eyes
And you'll be in my arms once more
The Moon of Manakoora soon will rise
Again above the island shore
Then I'll behold it in your dusky eyes
And you'll be in my arms once more

I want some red roses for a blue lady
Mister florist take my order please
We had a silly quarrel the other day

Send them to the sweetest gal in town
And if they do the trick, I'll hurry back to pick
Your best white orchid for her wedding gown

The Moon Is My Pillow
The Moon Is My Pillow
Composer(s): Lytell - Manning
Performer(s): Jerry Vale
The moon is my pillow a cloud is my bed
The sky is the ceiling that's over my head
The stars are the eyes of the angels above
Who watch over me with their heavenly love
And a blanket of blue is my cover
It's as big and as wide as the sky
And the soft evening breeze is my music
And it sings me a sweet lullabye
The moon is my pillow a cloud is my bed
The sky is the ceiling that's over my head
The stars are the eyes of the angels above
Who watch over me with their heavenly love

Performer(s): Paul Whiteman & His Orch.
and multiple other artists
Chloe! Chloe!
Someone's calling, no reply
Nightshade's falling, hear him sigh
Chloe! Chloe!
Empty spaces in his eyes
Empty arms outstretched, he's crying
Through the black of night
I've got to go where you are
If it's dark or bright
I've got to go where you are
I'll go through the dismal swampland
Searching for you
For if you are lost there
Let me be there, too
Through the smoke and flame
I've got to go where you are
For no ways can be too far
Where you are
Ain' no chains can bind you
If you live, I'll find you
Love is calling me
I've got to go where you are

Red Rose From The Blue Side Of Town
Red Rose From The Blue Side Of Town
Composer(s): Betty Jean Robinson; Hank Snow
Performer(s): George Morgan
When the man from the flower shop
rings your doorbell today
Take the red rose with the ribbon of blue
You'll find a million memories you threw away
In this red rose I'm sending to you
It's just a red rose from the blue side of town
From a lonely man you let down
I'm sending it from my world
To that new world you've found
It's just a red rose from the blue side of town
My red rose may not decorate your mansion on the hill
With your pretty flowers all around
But a thousand roses in your garden can't express the love
That's in this red rose from the blue side of town
It's just a red rose from the blue side of town
From a lonely man you let down
I'm sending it from my world
To that new world you've found
It's just a red rose from the blue side of town

Si me amaras otra vez
volvería yo a nacer

No se como pude amar
con un chico de tu edad
pues mi vida ya cambio
desde que llego el amor
si algún día tu te vas
no amare a nadie más
yo soy tu Diana
Oh mi vida
Oh mi amor
ven conmigo por favor
aunque el tiempo ya paso
Uh Oh Oh Oh
te quiero todavía
Ahora quiero empezar
con las fuerzas del ayer
y los dias otra vez
volveran a renacer
mi querido mi amor
perdona todo mi dolor
yo soy tu Diana
soy tu Diana
soy tu Diana
soy tu Diana

De laatste dans
die moet je mij nog schenken
De laatste dans
en dan laat ik je vrij
Er is nog kans dat jij je zult bedenken
daarom bewaar de laatste dans voor mij
Een ander kwam die ander nam
wat ik het liefste had
wat ik het meest aanbad
Maar voor je gaat en mij verlaat
kom nog eens hier en doe me een plezier
De laatste dans
die moet je mij nog schenken
De laatste dans en dan laat ik je vrij
Er is nog kans dat jij je zult bedenken
daarom bewaar de laatste dans voor mij
Jij danst met haar
dat valt me zwaar
maar ik begrijp het wel
jou hart veranderd snel
Ik heb verdriet
al huil ik niet
dans nog een keer met mij zoals welleer
De laatste dans
die moet je mij nog schenken
De laatste dans en dan laat ik je vrij
Er is nog kans dat jij je zult bedenken
daarom bewaar de laatste dans voor mij

Red River Valley
Red River Valley
Performer(s): Arlo Guthrie
From this valley they say you are going
We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
For they say you are taking the sunshine
That has brightened our pathways awhile
Come and sit by my side, if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy who loved you so true
I've been thinking a long time, my darling
Of the sweet words you never would say
Now, alas, must my fond hopes all vanish
For they say you are going away
Do you think of the valley you're leaving
O how lonely and how dreary it will be
And do you think of the kind hearts you're breaking
And the pain you are causing to me
Come and sit by my side, if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy who loved you so true
They will bury me where you have wandered
Near the hills where the daffodils grow
When you're gone from the Red River Valley
For I can't live without you I know
Come and sit by my side, if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy who loved you so true

((Adapted from: Diana (English Version) (Paul Anka) - 1957))
Composer(s): Paul Anka - Mogol - Adriano Celentano
Performer(s): Adriano Celentano & Paul Anka
Certo non ne ho viste mai
Belle e sexy meglio di lei
Ma a me sembra che lei è un po'
Troppo giovane per te
Ti capisco e come no?!
Se però soffrire non vuoi
Ohhh fuggi via da lei... Diana
Già io ti vedo passeggiar
Fra la gente insieme con lei
Mentre c'è chi pensa già
Che di Diana il padre sei
Ed ogni volta dover dire
Che tua figlia lei non è
Ohhh fuggi via da lei... Diana
Capricciosa bionda e rosa, morbidosa, poi golosa
Divertente, cotta al dente e tu? e tu?
E tu che non ti accorgi che lei sta cuocendoti a fuoco lento
Anche se poi chi ama di più
Fra voi due è ancora lei
Finchè un giorno ti risveglierai
Come un pugile un po' suonato
Dal travuoto che ti ha lasciato...
Fuggi via da lei... Diana
Capricciosa bionda e rosa, morbidosa, poi... poi golosa
Divertente, cotta al dente e tu? e tu?
Tu quale non ti accorgi che non sta cuocendo soltanto me
E' a un certo punto ormai anche con te...
Forse ammetterlo tu non puoi
E sono certo che nei panni miei
Pur di stare vicino a lei
Te ne freghi degli anni tuoi
Perchè lei è... lo sai... Diana
Già io mi vedo in un caffè
Fra la gente insieme con lei
Mentre i barman già pensan che
Che un bel giorno poi finirà
Come pugili un po' suonati
Quasi morti e innamorati...
Resta qui con noi... Diana
Qui con noi... Diana
Qui con noi... Diana

Va a ballar
Con quell'altra ragazza, che furba l'occhiolin ti fà
Lascia far
Se ballando con te ti stringerà nel chiaror lunar
Pero ricorda ad aspettarti
C'è l'amore mio per te
Oh caro
Chiudi il ballo con me
Io so ben
Che la musica puo inebriar cosi come inebria il vin
Canta pur
Ridi e scherza ma il cuore no non puoi ad un'altra dar
Perchè ricorda ad aspettarti
C'è l'amore mio per te
Oh car
Chiudi il ballo con me
Nulla al mondo puoi dividerci
Io son tua tu sei mio
Voglio dirti e devi credermi
Che amo solo te
Va a ballar
Quando vuoi dove vuoi con chi vuoi fa pure quel che pare a te
Ma se lei
Alla fin ti dirà se con lei Vuoi andare devi dirle no
Perchè ricorda ad aspettarti
C'è l 'amore mio per te
Oh caro
Chiudi il ballo con me
Perchè ricorda ad aspettarti
C'è l'amore mio per te
Oh caro
Chiudi il ballo con me
Oh caro
Chiudi il ballo con me
Oh caro .. .

Red Moon
Red Moon
Composer(s): John Traver;
Henri de Martini; Max Kortlander
Just another waltz beneath the red moon
Just another kiss before we part
Let me tell my love beneath the red moon
Dancing with you sweetheart
Hold me in your arms
For day is dawning
Starlight will leave us soon
Just another waltz before the morning under the red moon
While the violins are playing we'll be swaying to and fro
And it seems your eyes are saying that you love me, love me so
While the music of the cello sings its haunting melody
You can watch the red moon mellow and leave the rest to me
Just another waltz beneath the red moon
Just another kiss before we part
Let me tell my love beneath the red moon
Dancing with you, sweetheart hold me in your arms
For day is dawning
Starlight will leave us soon
Just another waltz before the morning under the red red moon
Under the red red moon

The Moon Got In My Eyes
The Moon Got In My Eyes
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
Out of the darkness you suddenly appeared
You smiled and I was taken by surprise
I guess I should have seen right through you
But the moon got in my eyes
I was so thrilled by the love you volunteered
I gave my heart without a compromise
I guess you don't remember, do you?
When the moon got in my eyes
I thought a kingdom was in sight
That I would have the right to claim
But with the morning's early light
I didn't have a dream to my name
You know the saying that all who love are blind
It seems that ancient adage still applies
I guess I should have seen right through you
But the moon got in my eyes
