Ich Bau Dir Ein Schloss


Ich Bau Dir Ein Schloss
Composer(s): G. Kaleta; H. Hee; W. Roloff
Performer(s): Heintje
Ich bau dir ein Schloss, so wie im Märchen
Da wohn ich mit dir, dann ganz allein
Ich bau dir ein Schloss, wenn ich einst gross bin
da kannst du dort wohn und glücklich sein
Der blaue Himmel schaut auf uns herab
sagt dir jeden Tag, wie lieb ich Dich hab
Und alle Wolken zieh'n so schnell vorbei
am Traumschloss für uns zwei
Ich bau dir ein Schloss, du wirst schon sehen
bald bin ich schon gross, dann zieh'n wir ein
Wo Blumen für Dich im Garten stehen
da wird jeder Tag ein Sonntag sein
Der blaue Himmel schaut auf uns herab
sagt dir jeden Tag, wie lieb ich Dich hab
Und alle Wolken zieh'n so schnell vorbei
am Traumschloss für uns zwei
am Traumschloss für uns zwei

Ring, Ring, I've Got To Sing


Ring, Ring, I've Got To Sing
Performer(s): Ferre Grignard
Well, don't cry my baby
Don't you cry all the while
Don't cry my baby
Just give me a smile
Seen my daddy die in the war
Seen my mama a-die crying for him
Ring, ring
Well, I've got to sing
Ring, ring
Well, I've got to sing
De dam dadda de day …….
They call me a hounddog
They call me a liar
It's all 'cause of my colour
They want me to hide
They're talking about freedom
Of religion and race
But if you are a negro
They slap you in the face
So what are you fighting for
They send 'm off to sea
Well, I couldn't stand more words
I'm gonna stop free
Well, I'm still happy
So don't cry my babe
Together we'll just try for
Being free people some day

Le Soleil Ne Brille Plus


Le Soleil Ne Brille Plus
((Adapted from: The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine (Anymore) (Frankie Valli) - 1965))
((Italian Version: Il Sole Non Tramonterà (The Casuals) - 1966))
Composer(s): Bob Crewe - Bob Gaudio - Richard Anthony
Performer(s): Richard Anthony - 1966
Je n'ai plus que des jours sans joie
Des matins brumeux où tout est froid
Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
La lune a perdu tout son éclat
La vie est monotone et sans joie
Quand on est sans amour
Pourquoi?
La tristesse ne me quitte pas
Y a plus d'espoir quand l'amour s'en va
Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
La lune a perdu tout son éclat
La vie est monotone et sans joie
Quand on est sans amour
Si seul dans les rues vides
J'ai besoin de toi, reviens vers moi
Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
La lune a perdu tout son éclat
La vie est monotone et sans joie
Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
Quand on est sans amour
Pourquoi?
Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel

Come Back To Playland With Me
Come Back To Playland With Me
Composer(s): Maud Lambert
The lovelight is bright in your eye, dear
Mem'ries are bringing you joy
I know you are thinking of childhood
The land of the girl and the boy
Come let's have day dreams together
Wander once more hand in hand
Back to those days with their boy and girl ways
Playmates in dear old Playland
Let's visit the old fashioned haunts, dear
Travel on memories train
And soon we'll be strolling through childhood
Our hearts will be glad once again
Let's linger long o'er each fancy
Each one will bring joy and sublime
Each passing year will enfold charms so dear
Playmates at dear old Playtime
Playland, Playland
Land of nursery rhymes
Boys and girls in golden curls
"Ring a rosey" times
Childish games we played, dear
When our hearts were free
Mem'ries embraces will bring old faces
So come back to Playland with me

Ring Ring


Ring Ring
Composer(s): Benny Andersson; Stig Anderson;
Phil Cody; Neil Sedaka; Björn Ulvaeus
Performer(s): ABBA;
and various other artists
I was sitting by the phone
I was waiting all alone
Baby by myself I sit and wait and wonder about you
It's a dark and dreary night
Seems like nothing's going right
Won't you tell me honey how can I go on here without you?
Yes I'm down and feeling blue
And I don't know what to do, oh-oh
Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won't you please understand the need in me
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
You were here and now you're gone
Hey did I do something wrong?
I just can't believe that I could be so badly mistaken
Was it me or was it you?
Tell me, are we really through?
Won't you hear me cry and you will know that my heart is breaking
Please forgive and then forget
Or maybe darling better yet, oh-oh
Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won't you please understand the need in me
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Oh-oh, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?

In The Summer Of His Years


In The Summer Of His Years
Composer(s): David Lee - Herbert Kretzmer
Performer(s): Connie Francis; Millicent Martin
A young man rode with his head held high
Under the Texas sun
And no one guessed
That a man so blessed
Would perish by the gun
Lord, would perish by the gun
A shot rang out like a Southern shout
And Heaven held its breath
For a man shot down
In a Southern town
In the summer of his years
Yes, the summer of his years
And we who stay mustn't ever lose
The victories that he's won
For wherever "man" looks to Freedom's past
His soul goes riding on
Lord, his soul goes riding on!

Come Back To Arizona


Come Back To Arizona
Composer(s): Alfred Bryan; Herman Paley
Arizona, wild and free you're always dear to me
I love you true
Sun kissed meadows of the west
the one I love the best she loves you too
But my heart is sad today
my heart is far away
I'm all alone can't you hear me calling you
Oh! won't you come back home?
When the sunset fades away each night
alone I stay with aching heart
And the night winds seem to sigh
"Why did you say goodbye why did we part?"
Tho' the town is gay tonight and lights are burning bright I'm feeling blue
Waiting hearts grow weary dear but mine will wait for you
Come back to Arizona where the skies are blue
Come back where you can own a heart that waits for you, so lonely
Come little girl put my love to the test
come to the best little nest in the west
Come back to Arizona
I love you

Ring Of Fire


Ring Of Fire
Composer(s): June Carter Cash; Merle Kilgore
Performer(s): Johnny Cash
Love is a burning thing
And it makes a fiery ring
Bound by wild desire
I fell in to a ring of fire...
I fell in to a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire
The taste of love is sweet
When hearts like ours meet
I fell for you like a child
Oh, but the fire went wild...
I fell in to a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire

The Streak


The Streak
Composer(s): Ray Stevens
Performer(s): Ray Stevens
Hello everybody, this is your action news reporter
With all the news that is news across the nation
On the scene at the super market
There seems to have been some disturbance here
Pardon me sir, did you see what happened?
Yeh, I did... I was standing over there by the tomatoes
And here he come
Running thru the pole beans, thru the fruits and vegetables
Naked as a jay-bird
And I hollered over at Ethel... I said don't look Ethel
It was too late, she'd already been incensed...
Here he comes, boogie-dy, boogie-dy
There he goes, boogie-dy, boogie-dy
And he ain't wearin' no clothes
Oh yes, they call him the streak
Fastest thing on two feet
He's just as proud as he can be
Of his anatomy
He's gonna give us a peek
Oh yes, they call him the streak
He likes to show off his physique
If there's an audience to be found
He'll be streakin' around
Invitin' public critique...
This is your action news reporter once again
And we're here at the gas station
Pardon me sir, did you see what happened?
Yeh, I did... I was just in here gettin' my tires checked
And he just appeared out of the traffic
Come streakin' around the grease rack there
Didn't have nothing on but a smile
I looked in there and Ethel was gettin' her a cold drink
I hollered... Don't look Ethel
It was too late... She'd already been mooned
Flashed her right there in front of the shock absorbers
He ain't rude, boogie-dy, boogie-dy
He ain't lewd, boogie-dy, boogie-dy
He's just in the mood to run in the nude
Oh yes, they call him the streak
He likes to turn the other cheek
He's always making the news
Wearin' just his tennis shoes
Guess you could call him unique...
Once again, your action news reporter in the booth at the gym
Covering the disturbance at the basketball playoffs
Pardon me sir, did you see what happened?
Yeh, I did... half-time, I was just going down there
To get Ethel a snow cone
Here he come right our of the cheap seats
Dribblin'... right down the middle of the court
Didn't have on nothin' but his PF's
Made a hook shot and got out thru the concession stand
I hollered up at Ethel, I said don't look Ethel
It was too late... She'd already got a free shot
Grandstanded... Right there in front of the home team
Here he comes... look... who's that with him?
Ethel, is that you, Ethel?
What do you think you're doing?
You get your clothes on!
Ethel, where you going?
Ethel, you shameless hussy
Say it isn't so Ethel
Ethel...

Come Back Paddy Reilly To Ballyjamesduff


Come Back Paddy Reilly To Ballyjamesduff
Composer(s): William Percy French
Performer(s): Daniel O'Donnell
and various other artists
The Garden of Eden has vanished, they say
But I know the lie of it still
Just turn to the left at the bridge of Finea
And stop when halfway to Cootehill.
'Tis there I will find it
I know sure enough
When fortune has come to me call
Oh the grass it is green around Ballyjamesduff
And the blue sky is over it all
And tones that are tender and tones that are gruff
Are whispering over the sea
"Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff
Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me"
My mother once told me that when I was born
The day that I first saw the light
I looked down the street on that very first morn
And gave a great crow of delight
Now most newborn babies appear in a huff
And start with a sorrowful squall
But I knew I was born in Ballyjamesduff
And that's why I smiled on them all
The baby's a man, now he's toil-worn and tough
Still, whispers come over the sea
"Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff
Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me"
The night that we danced by the light of the moon
Wid Phil to the fore wid his flute
When Phil threw his lip over "Come Again Soon"
He's dance the foot out o' yer boot!
The day that I took long Magee by the scruff
For slanderin' Rosie Kilrain
Then, marchin' him straight out of Ballyjamesduff
Assisted him into a drain
Oh, sweet are the dreams, as the dudeen I puff
Of whisperings over the sea
"Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff
Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me"
I've loved the young women of every land
That always came easy to me
Just barrin' the belles of the Black-a-moor brand
And the chocolate shapes of Feegee
But that sort of love is a moonshiny stuff
And never will addle me brain
For the bells will be ringin' in Ballyjamesduff
For me and me Rosie Kilrain!
And through all their glamour, their gas and their guff
A whisper comes over the sea
"Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff
Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me"
I've struck oil at last!
I've struck work, and I vow
I've struck some remarkable clothes
I've struck a policeman for sayin' that now
I'd go back to my beautiful Rose
The belles they may blarney
the boys they may bluff
But this I will always maintain
No place in the world like Ballyjamesduff
No guril (sic) like Rosie Kilrain
I've paid for my passage, the sea may be rough
But borne on each breeze there will be
"Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff
Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me"

Ring Of Clover


Ring Of Clover
Performer(s): The Whites
Across a field of memories
rest upon a yellow page
there among the flowers
it seems like only yesterday
We made a ring
ring of clover
Made a vow
to love no other
Diamonds I
would never trade
for the ring of clover that we made
Gone a sweet tomorrow
taking on the winds of change
Still we will remember
the love we promised on that day
We made a ring
ring of clover
Made a vow
to love no other
Diamonds I
would never trade
for the ring of clover that we made
We made a ring
ring of clover
Made a vow
to love no other
Diamonds I
would never trade
for the ring of clover that we made
Diamonds I
would never trade
for the ring of clover that we made
Mmmmmm...

The Strawberry Roan


The Strawberry Roan
Composer(s): Curley Fletcher - Fred Howard - Nat Vincent
Performer(s): Bill Boyd & His Cowboy Wranglers
and multiple other artists
I was hanging round town, just spending my time
Being out of a job and not earning a dime
A fellow walks up, and he says, "I suppose
You're a bronc rider, from the looks of your clothes"
"Well, you figured me right, and I'm a good one, I claim
Would you happen to have any outlaws to tame?"
He says, "I've got one and a good one to buck
At throwing top riders he's had lots of luck"
He says this here's one pony that's never been rode
And the man that gets on him is bound to get throwed
I got all het up and I asked what he'd pay
To ride this old nag for a couple of days
Well, he offered me ten, and I says, "I'm your man
For the bronc isn't living that I couldn't fan"
He says, "Get your saddle, I'll give you the chance"
So we hopped in his buckboard and rode to his ranch
Out in the horse corral, standing alone
Is an old cavallo, a strawberry roan
Little pin ears that touch at the tip
A big 44 brand upon his left hip
He was spavined all round, and he had pigeon toes
Little pig eyes, and a big roman nose
U-necked and old, with a long lower jaw
You could tell at a glance he's a regular outlaw
Well, I buckle on my spurs, and I'm sure feeling fine
I pull down my hat and I pick up my twine
Throw my loop on him, and well I know then
Before he gets rode, I'll sure earn my ten
I get the blinds on him with a terrible fight
Next comes the saddle, and I cinch him up tight
Then I step on him and raise up the blinds
"Get out of the way, boys, he's bound to unwind!"
Well, I threw him his head, and I'll say he unwound
He seemed to quit living down here on the ground
Went up in the east and come down in the west
I'm sitting up on him and doing my best
He sure was a frog-walker, he heaved a big sigh
He only lacked wings for to be on the fly
Turned his old belly right up to the sun
He sure was a sunfishing son of a gun
He's about the worst bucker I've seen on the range
He could turn on a nickle and give you some change
I lost both my stirrups and also my hat
I'm reaching for leather and blind as a bat
He come down on all fours, and he went up on high
And he left me a-spinning up there in the sky
Turned over twice and I come down to the earth
And I lit into cussing the day of his birth
Now I know there's ponies that I cannot ride
There's some of them living, they haven't all died
But I'll bet my money there's no man alive
Who can stay with old Strawberry when he makes his high dive

I'm glad you're home
Well, did you really miss me?

The Stranger (Two Souls In Communion)


The Stranger (Two Souls In Communion)
Composer(s): Ron "Pigpen" McKernan
Performer(s): Grateful Dead
What are they seeing, when they look in each other's eyes?
What are they feeling, when they see each other's smile?
Is it a love I've never known - or an emotion that I've outgrown?
Did I take a wrong turning on life's winding road?
Won't somebody help me find the right way to go?
My life need some correction, alteration in direction
Won't somebody comfort me for a while - yes, I'm lost
What is the secret of this tie that binds?
Two souls in communion, both body and mind
Is it special magic, or just the nature of things?
Conceived of great spirit, not for beggars but kings
You who have found it, please help me along
I'm a man, I'm a man, - I'm not made out of stone
My needs they are simple, I don't want many things
But I truly want to fly on those wings of love one more time
That's all I need (fly up, fly home)
I want to fly on them wings (fly up, fly home)
I want to fly on them wings of love (fly up, fly home)
I'm a stranger here (fly up, fly home)
Won't somebody help me now (fly up, fly home)
I wake up early in the morning (fly up, fly home)
you know I never saw you babe (fly up, fly home)
I just can't seem to understand
Can't seem to understand what's wrong (fly up, fly home)
What I wanna do is take a little ride with you, on the wings of love
Woh-oh one more time, one more time

Open your ears
Awake from thy sleep

All of its riches
Imparted to thee
Robes of saffron
Robes of standing
A road of crimson
Spread at your feet
Your robes of standing
Your robes of saffron
Your road of crimson
All pleasing to me
But close your lights
Close your gates
I must arise
My flock awaits
Farewell little Sheba
I hear them a'calling
Here is your staff
Tend to thy sheep
Good wishes be with you
If that be your calling
Farewell little Sheba
Arise and take leave
