Cold Day In Hell
Cold Day In Hell
Composer(s): Gary Moore
Performer(s): Gary Moore
So many times you tried to take the best of me
So many times, now you're gonna take the rest of me
Better look at what you're doing before it's too late
It's a fine line you're treadin' between love and hate
There'll be a cold day in hell
before I'm coming back to you
So many times you tried to play a dead end game
Yes, you did
I tried to tell you, but you'd never wanna take the blame
Now you've pushed me to the limit, and I can't take no more
You'd better take one last look before I'm out the door
There'll be a cold day in hell
before I'm coming back to you
You never listened when I told you
that you were way out of line
Too busy talkin' to listen
accusing me of telling lies
So many times you tried to get the best of me
Yes, you did
So many times, but now you're gonna take the rest of me
Well, it's too late for sorry and it's too late for tears
Better take one last look before I disappear
There'll be a cold day in hell
before I'm coming back to you
There'll be a cold day in hell
before I'm coming back to you
There'll be a cold day in hell
before I'm coming back to you
Yeah!

Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Oscar Hammerstein II
First performance/First release by: Mary Martin - 1959
Covered by multiple other artists
Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read you begin with A-B-C
When you sing you begin with do-re-mi
Do-re-mi, do-re-mi
The first three notes just happen to be
Do-re-mi, do-re-mi
Maria:
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti
spoken Let's see if I can make it easy
Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do (oh-oh-oh)
Maria and Children:
(Repeat above verse twice)
Maria:
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do
So-do!
Maria:
Now children, do-re-mi-fa-so and so on are only the tools we use to build a song
Once you have these notes in your heads, you can sing a million different tunes by mixing them up
Like this
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
spoken Can you do that?
Children:
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
Maria:
So Do La Ti Do Re Do
Children:
So Do La Ti Do Re Do
Maria:
Now, put it all together
Maria and Children:
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re, So Do La Ti Do Re Do
Maria:
Good!
Brigitta:
But it doesn't mean anything
Maria:
So we put in words
One word for every note
Like this
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
Together!
Maria and Children:
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do
Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do
Do Ti La So Fa Mi Re
Children:
Do Mi Mi
Mi So So
Re Fa Fa
La Ti Ti
(Repeat above verse 4x as Maria sings)
Maria:
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
Maria and Children:
Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to

The Sidestep
The Sidestep
Composer(s): Carol Hall
Performer(s): Charles Durning
Fellow Texans, I am proudly standing here to humbly see
I assure you, and I mean it
Now, who says I don't speak out as plain as day?
And, fellow Texans, I'm for progress and the flag - long may it fly
I'm a poor boy, come to greatness
So, it follows that I cannot tell a lie
Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't
I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step
cut a little swathe and lead the people on
Now my good friends, it behooves me to be solemn and declare
I'm for goodness and for profit and for living clean and saying daily prayer
And now, my good friends, you can sleep nights, I'll continue to stand tall
You can trust me, for I promise, I shall keep a watchful eye upon ya'll...
Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't
I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step
cut a little swathe and lead the people on
Now, Miss Mona, I don't know her, though I've heard the name, oh yes
But, of course I've no close contact, so what she is doing I can only guess
And now, Miss Mona, she's a blemish on the face of that good town
I am taking certain steps here, someone somewhere's gonna have to close her down
Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't
I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step
cut a little swathe and lead the people on
Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep...
And, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step...
Cut a little swathe and lead the people on

Cold Black Night
Cold Black Night
Composer(s): Jeremy Spencer
Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac
It was a cold black night and the rain was falling down
Cold black night and the rain was fallin' down
I went out lookin' for my girl
I knew she wasn't nowhere around
She left me early that morning, with a suitcase in her hand
She left me early that morning, yes, with a suitcase in her
hand
And she took off on a train this mornin'
and she was meetin' some other man, yes
She used to treat me real good and I wonder why I
didn't treat her right
Yes, ah, you know I wonder why I didn't treat her right
And now all I can do, is walk those streets both day and night

Ride, Tenderfoot, Ride
Ride, Tenderfoot, Ride
Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Richard A. Whiting
Performer(s): Dick Powell;
and various other artists
Ride, tenderfoot, ride tonight
See the old rangers there at your side, tonight
They're fast company
So if you wanna be a cowboy
Then you gotta ride, tenderfoot, ride!
You gotta hit the trail
In Oklahoma when the moon is pale
And get to Texas with the mornin' mail
'Fore you can be a cowboy
You gotta rope and throw
You gotta get your share of buffalo
And win the money at the Rodeo
'Fore you can be a cowboy (whistle)
You gotta tend your cattle the best you can
Hold your "likker" like a man
And ride, tenderfoot, ride tonight!
See the old range riders there at your side tonight
They're fast company
So if you wanna be a cowboy
Then you gotta ride, tenderfoot, ride!
Ride, ride, ride!

You Are Sixteen
You Are Sixteen
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Oscar Hammerstein II
First performance/First release by: Lauri Peters and Brian Davies - 1959
Covered by multiple other artists
Rolf:
You wait, little girl, on an empty stage
For fate to turn the light on
Your life, little girl, is an empty page
That men will want to write on
Liesl:
To write on
Rolf:
You are sixteen going on seventeen
Baby, it's time to think
Better beware, be canny and careful
Baby, you're on the brink
You are sixteen going on seventeen
Fellows will fall in line
Eager young lads and rogues and cads
Will offer you food and wine
Totally unprepared are you
To face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared are you
Of things beyond your ken
You need someone older an wiser
Telling you what to do
I am seventeen going on eighteen
I'll take care of you
Liesl:
I am sixteen going on seventeen
I know that I'm naive
Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet
And willingly I believe
I am sixteen going on seventeen
Innocent as a rose
Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies
What do I know of those
Totally unprepared am I
To face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared am I
Of things beyond my ken
I need someone older and wiser
Telling me what to do
You are seventeen going on eighteen
I'll depend on you
----------
Maria:
You are sixteen going on seventeen
Waiting for life to start
Somebody kind who touches your mind
Will suddenly touch your heart
Liesl:
When that happens, after it happens
Nothing is quite the same
Somehow I know I'll jump up and go
If ever he calls my name
Maria:
Gone are your old ideas of life
The old ideas grow dim
Lo and behold you're someone's wife
And you belong to him
You may think this kind of adventure
Never may come to you
Darling sixteen going on seventeen
Wait a year...
Liesl:
I'll wait a year...
Maria:
Just wait a year...
Maria and Liesl:
Or two

Cold As Ice
Cold As Ice
Composer(s): Mick Jones; Lou Gramm
Performer(s): Foreigner
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You never take advice
Someday you'll pay the price, I know
I've seen it before
It happens all the time
Closing the door
You leave the world behind
You're digging for gold
Yet throwing away
A fortune in feelings
But someday you'll pay
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You want paradise
But someday you'll pay the price, I know
I've seen it before
It happens all the time
Closing the door
You leave the world behind
You're digging for gold
Yet throwing away
A fortune in feelings
But someday you'll pay
(Cold - as - ice)
You know that you are
(Cold-cold) - (as-as) - (ice)
As cold as ice to me

I Have Confidence
I Have Confidence
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers
First release by: Julie Andrews - 1965
What will this day be like? I wonder
What will my future be? I wonder
It could be so exciting to be out in the world, to be free
My heart should be wildly rejoicing
Oh, what's the matter with me?
I've always longed for adventure
To do the things I've never dared
And here I'm facing adventure
Then why am I so scared
A captain with seven children
What's so fearsome about that?
Oh, I must stop these doubts, all these worries
If I don't I just know I'll turn back
I must dream of the things I am seeking
I am seeking the courage I lack
The courage to serve them with reliance
Face my mistakes without defiance
Show them I'm worthy
And while I show them
I'll show me
So, let them bring on all their problems
I'll do better than my best
I have confidence they'll put me to the test
But I'll make them see I have confidence in me
Somehow I will impress them
I will be firm but kind
And all those children (Heaven bless them!)
They will look up to me
And mind me with each step I am more certain
Everything will turn out fine
I have confidence the world can all be mine
They'll have to agree I have confidence in me
I have confidence in sunshine
I have confidence in rain
I have confidence that spring will come again
Besides which you see I have confidence in me
Strength doesn't lie in numbers
Strength doesn't lie in wealth
Strength lies in nights of peaceful slumbers
When you wake up -- Wake Up!
It tells me all I trust I lead my heart to
All I trust becomes my own
I have confidence in confidence alone
(Oh help!)
I have confidence in confidence alone
Besides which you see I have confidence in me!

The Shut-In's Prayer
The Shut-In's Prayer
Composer(s): Jimmy Martin - Paul Williams
Performer(s): Jimmy Martin & The Sunny Mountain Boys
Last night as the moon pulled anchor
And sailed down the milky way
It peeked through an old front window
Where a lonely shut-in lay
The moon seemed to shine much brighter
Each star seemed to nod it's head
The night seemed so strangely peaceful
When they heard what the shut-in said
Dear God way up in heaven
I earnestly pray to thee
And my prayer, oh Lord, was thou answered
And lay a healing hand on me
This vain world seems to forget me, Lord
And I've been a shut-in so long
I'm needing thy love, dear Jesus
And still in my heart a song
Lord, I ask not for gold or silver
And no diamonds to call my own
Just give me that touch of healing
I'm so weak and all alone
I trust that I'm not asking too much
Of thy heavenly wealth
When humbly, dear Lord, I pray thee
Just give me back my health
Then off to dreamland the shut-in drifted
Yes, God heard what the shut-in said
The night seemed so strangely peaceful
When they heard what the shut-in said

Cold
Cold
Composer(s): Robert Smith; Lol Tolhurst; Simon Johnathon Gallup
Originally performed by: The Cure
Scarred
Your back was turned
Curled like an embryo
Take another face
You will be kissed again
I was cold as I mouthed the words
And crawled across the mirror
I wait
Await the next breath
Your name
Like ice into my heart
A shallow grave
A monument to the ruined age
Ice in my eyes
And eyes like ice don't move
Screaming at the moon
Another past time
Your name
Like ice into my heart
Everything as cold as life
Can no one save you?
Everything
As cold as silence
And you never say a word
Your name
Like ice into my heart
Your name
Like ice into my heart

The Shrine Of St. Cecilia
Composer(s): Pern Jokern - Carroll Loveday
Performer(s): The Andrews Sisters
and multiple other artists
Our home is a shambles, all I treasured has gone
The town seems deserted, everyone's so forlorn
A storm came from up above but somehow it missed
The shrine of Saint Cecilia
The bells in the chapel never ring anymore
The clock in the steeple can't tell time as before
But up on the hillside, stands a place heaven blest
The shrine of Saint Cecilia
Each day at eventide
When I seek haven from my daily care
You'll find me by her side
It seems so peaceful there
I kneel in my solitude and silently pray
That heaven will protect you, dear, and there'll come a day
The storm will be over and that we'll meet again
At the shrine of Saint Cecilia
Each day at eventide
When I seek haven from my daily care
You'll find me by her side
It seems so peaceful there
I kneel in my solitude and silently pray
That heaven will protect you, dear, and there'll come a day
The storm will be over and that we'll meet again
At the shrine of Saint Cecilia

No me queda bien estar fingiendo
aqui parado cualquier linea me deja bien
A veces sin rumbo cola de amor
voy a buscarte espero aqui o me voy
Miran otros ojos alrededor
no creo que alguien pueda robarme este amor
Mas de diez años mas que los vientos mas un dolor
no creo que alguien pueda robarme este amor
Para poder seguir tengo que empazar todo de nuevo
un canto libre para la luna y para vos
En una orilla todos los dias descansaran
y con un sueño en un lugar y con un sueño en un lugar
y con un sueño en un lugar te espero
No me queda bien estar fingiendo
aqui parado cualquier linea me deja bien
A veces sin rumbo cola de amor
voy a buscarte espero aqui o me voy
Para poder seguir tengo que empazar todo de nuevo

En una orilla todos los dias descansaran

Ride The Wild Surf
Ride The Wild Surf
Composer(s): Jan Berry;
Roger Christian; Brian Wilson
Performer(s): Jan & Dean;
and various other artists
In Hawaii there's a place known as Waimea Bay
Where the best surfers in the world come to stay
And ride the wild surf, they come to try
To conquer those waves some thirty feet high
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Gotta take that one last ride
Surf fever brings 'em here to meet the test
And hangin' 'round the beach you'll see the best
They're waxed up and ready, just a-waitin' for
The surf to build up on the northern shore
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Gotta take that one last ride
Lined up and waitin' for that next big set outside
Nothin' can stop it 'cause you
Just gotta ride, ride, ride, ride, ride
The heavies at the Pipeline are OK
But they can't match the savage surf at Waimea Bay
It takes a lot of skill and courage unknown
To catch a last wave and ride it in alone
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Gotta take that one last
Gotta take that one last ride
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Ride, ride, ride the wild surf
Gotta take that one last ri-i-i-i-i-i-ide
