Where's My Sweetie Hiding?
Where's My Sweetie Hiding?
Composer(s): Tommie Malie; Addy Britt; Jack Little; Dick Finch
Performer(s): Original Prague Syncopated Orch.
and multiple other artists
Where's my sweetie hiding?
Gee, but I'd like to know
Wonder what made her go?
Where has she been hiding?
Though I've looked every place
Not a trace of her face
I think I'll advertize for her in the news
I realize that love's the cure for my blues
Where, where, where's my sweetie hiding?
Wonder if she'll come back to me?

There’s A Little Bit Of Everything In Texas
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
and multiple other artists
There's A Little Bit Of Everything In Texas
Just look around and you will see
There's A Little Bit Of Everything In Texas
And a whole lot of Texas in me
There are forty-seven states around it
And each of them have treasures of their own
And everything they boast of I sure found it
But we’ve got them all right here at home
Now if love ‘O sunny California
Or perhaps the hills of Tennessee
No matter what you love just come to Texas
And I’ll bet my boots you will agree
There's A Little Bit Of Everything In Texas
And really I’m not bragging you see
There's A Little Bit Of Everything In Texas
And a whole lot of Texas in me
Ah Tommy Jackson now
Instrumentals
Now if love ‘O sunny California
Or perhaps the hills of Tennessee
No matter what you love just come to Texas
And I’ll bet my boots you’ll agree
Now if love ‘O sunny California
Or perhaps the hills of Tennessee
No matter what you love just come to Texas
And I’ll bet my boots you’ll agree
There's A Little Bit Of Everything In Texas
And really I’m not bragging you see
There's A Little Bit Of Everything In Texas
And a whole lot of Texas in me

Boy, boy, crazy boy
Get cool, boy!
Got a rocket in your pocket
Keep coolly cool, boy!
Don't get hot
'Cause, man, you got
Some high times ahead
Take it slow and Daddy-o
You can live it up and die in bed!
Boy, boy, crazy boy
Stay loose, boy!
Breeze it, buzz it, easy does it
Turn off the juice, boy!
Go, man, go
But not like a yo-yo
Schoolboy
Just play it cool, boy
Real cool!
Fugue

Jets:
Boy, boy, crazy boy
Stay loose, boy! ...

Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town
Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town
Composer(s): Mel Tillis
Performer(s): Mel Tillis;
and various other artists
You've painted up your lips
And rolled and curled your tinted hair
Ruby are you contemplating
Going out somewhere
The shadow on the wall
Tells me the sun is going down
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
It wasn't me
That started that old crazy Asian war
But I was proud to go
And do my patriotic chore
And yes, it's true that
I'm not the man I used to be
Oh, Ruby I still need some company
It's hard to love a man
Whose legs are bent and paralysed
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age
Ruby I realize,
But it won't be long I've heard them say until I'm not around
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
She's leaving now 'cause
I just heard the slamming of the door
The way I know I've heard it
Some 100 times before
And if I could move I'd get my gun
And put her in the ground
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
Oh Ruby for God's sake turn around

There, I've Said It Again
Composer(s): David Mann - Redd Evans
First release by: Benny Carter & His Orch. - 1941
Covered by multiple other artists
I love you, there's nothing to hide
It's better than burning inside
I love you, no use to pretend
There! I've said it again
I've said it, what more can I say
Believe me, there's no other way
I love you, I will to the end
There! I've said it again
I try to drum up
A phrase that will sum up
All that I feel for you
But what good are phrases
The thought that amazes
Is that you love me
And it's heavenly
Forgive me for wanting you so
But one thing I want you to know
I've loved you since heaven knows when
There! I've said it again

Cook's Country
Cook's Country
Composer(s): Pete Townshend
Performer(s): The Who
People are suffering
I'll say it again
People are suffering
I'll say it again
People are suffering
I'll say it again
So remember when you're looking for trouble
That trouble is already busy with weaker men
People are hungry
I'll say it again
People are hungry
I'll say it again
People are hungry
I'll say it again
So don't you abuse that body
It'll snap without assistance my friends
The song goes on
I'll sing again until the music enervates
The song goes on
The sting of pain will dull and finally fade away
The song goes on
Through centuries of history it reverberates
The song goes on
On curving comets track the music makes it way
This song is so long
It ends up where it begins
People are lonely
I'll say it again
People are lonely
I'll say it again
People are lonely
I'll say it again
So don't let them run too far from home
You'll be alone for sure on that you can depend
People are bleeding
I'll say it again
People are bleeding
I'll say it again
People are bleeding
I'll say it again
So put away that switchblade knife
Tighten up the knot that'll help this bloodshed end
The song goes on - the song goes on
This song
Is so long
It ends up where it begins
People are suffering
I'll say it again and again
People are hungry
I'll say it again and again
People are lonely
I'll say it again and again

Ruby Tuesday
Ruby Tuesday
Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards
Performer(s): The Rolling Stones;
and various other artists
She would never say where she came from
Yesterady don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows, she comes and goes
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you
Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothing's gained
And nothing's lost, at such a cost
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you
"There's no time to lose", I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind
Ain't life unkind?
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you

There, I Said It
There, I Said It
Composer(s): Margo Smith
Performer(s): Margo Smith
I love you (I love you), I love you (I love you)
There, I said it
And you know somethin'
It didn't hurt at all
I need you (I need you), gotta have you (gotta have you)
There, I said it
Stay close to me, 'cause without you
I'd surely fall
I've waited so long to say those words
I was about to burst inside
I'm a little bit shy, a little old fashioned
And full of the word called pride
But now that I see, I'm done with regret
I wanna stand and shout, tell the world about it
I'm so happy
I finally had the nerve to say
I love you (I love you), I love you (I love you)
There, I said it
And you know somethin'
It didn't hurt at all
I need you (I need you), I gotta have you (I gotta have you)
There, I said it
Stay close to me, 'cause without you
I'd surely fall
Stay close to me, 'cause without you
I'd surely fall

Don't wait for the postman
If you're looking for a letter from me
There won't be anymore

If you're waiting for a call from me

Til you turned bad
And broke my loving heart
And when your heart is breaking
And you need some loving from me
There won't be anymore

Don't think of the love we had
Til you turned bad
And broke my loving heart
And when your heart is breaking
And you need some loving from me

Composer(s): Mitchelle Paris; Heinz Roemheld

They say, Ruby you're like a dream
Not always what you seem
And though my heart may break when I awake
Let it be so, I only know
Ruby, it's you
They say, Ruby you're like a song
You just don't know right from wrong
And in your eyes I see heartaches for me
Right from the start, who stole my heart?
Ruby, it's you
I hear your voice and I must come to you (must come to you)
I have no choice, so what else can I do ? (what else can I do?)
They say, Ruby you're like a flame
Into my life you came
And though I should beware, still I just don't care
You thrill me so, I only know
Ruby, it's you
(I hear your voice and I must come to you)
(I have no choice, what else can I do ?-what can I do?)
They say, Ruby you're like a flame
Into my life you came
And though I should beware, still I don't care
You thrill me so, I only know
Ruby, it's you

First performance by: John Payne & Joan Merrill - 1942
Covered by multiple other artists
This is our last dance together
Tonight soon will be long ago
And in our moment of parting
This is all I want you to know
There will be many other nights like this
And I'll be standing here with someone new
There will be other songs to sing
Another fall, another spring
But there will never be another you
There will be other lips that I may kiss
But they won't thrill me like yours used to do
Yes, I may dream a million dreams
But how can they come true
If there will never ever be another you

Convite
Composer(s): Guillermo De Anda
Performer(s): Javier Solís
Señalándome la gente ya no puedo vivir más
les dirás que todos mienten
que te adoro locamente
que no dicen la verdad
Si tú sabes que te quiero
que por ti mil veces muero
tienes que acallar las cosas
que andan ya de boca en boca
repartiendo su veneno
En las cosas del amor nunca podrán ser más de dos
y esto es un convite ya que la verdad no puedo más
Si toditos los latidos de mi amante corazón
sólo a ti te pertenecen por derecho, por amor
lo que va de boca en boca no nos debe de importar
si al Señor crucificaron qué podemos esperar
En las cosas del amor nunca podrán ser más de dos
y esto es un convite ya que la verdad no puedo más
Si toditos los latidos de mi amante corazón
sólo a ti te pertenecen por derecho, por amor
lo que va de boca en boca no nos debe de importar
si al Señor crucificaron qué podemos esperar

Les nuits de ta vie
Sont froides comme des bambous
N'écoute donc pas les autres
Oui sèche bien tes joues
Ecoute le vent fou, qui dit...
Rubis, comme je t'aime
Le feu est dans la plaine, le rhum dans ma main
Rubis, vois, comme je t'aime
Le feu est dans la plaine, ta bague dans ma main
Ils sont tous partis
A d'autres rendez-vous
Et toi tu pleures toute seule
Comme une rue sans joie

There Used To Be A Ball Park
There Used To Be A Ball Park
Composer(s): Joe Raposo
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
And there used to be a ball park
Where the field was warm and green
And the people played their crazy game
With a joy I'd never seen
And the air was such a wonder
From the hot dogs and the beer
Yes, there used to be a ball park... right here
And there used to be rock candy
And a great big Fourth of July
With the fireworks exploding
All across the summer sky
And the people watched in wonder
How they laughed and how they'd cheer
And there used to be a ball park... right here
Now the children try to find it
And they can't believe their eyes
'Cause the old team just isn't playing
And the new team hardly tries
And the sky has got so cloudy
When it used to be so clear
And the summer went so quickly... this year
Yes, there used to be a ball park... right here

Conversation With The Devil
Conversation With The Devil
Composer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard
Performer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard
I had a dream last night I was cast into Hell by a jealous God
The Devil walked up and said you don't need no lightning rod
It hardly ever rains down here I can't recall the last storm
You aint gonna need that leather jacket it gets kinda warm
There's one way in there's no way out looks like you're to stay
The place is a mess, it's overcrowded, more are coming in everyday
I said ah man, wait a minute there's gotta be something wrong
I aint a bad guy just write these little songs
I always pay my union dues don't stay in the passing lane
And he said what about all that whiskey and the cocaine
I said well yeah but that's no reason to throw me in Hell
'Cause I didn't use the cocaine to get high, I just liked the way it smelled
He said come on over here son, let me show you around
Over there's where we put the preachers, I never liked those clowns
They're always blaming me for everything wrong under the sun
It aint harder to what's right, it's just maybe not as much fun
Then the walk around thinking they're better than me and you
Then they get caught in a motel room doing what they said not to do
Now the murderers and the rapists they go in this firey lake
As well as most of the politician and the cops on the take
And all the mothers that wait to get to KMart to spank their kids
Instead of showing what to do what's right, they just hit 'em for what they did
And all the daddy's who run off and abandon their daughters and sons
Oh anybody that hurts a child is gonna burn until it's done
Everybody is down here I said who's up in Heaven with God and the Son
Oh some saints and mystics and students of metaphysics 101
People who care and share and love and try to do what's right
Beautiful old souls who read a little stories to their babies every night
What you wont find up in Heaven are Christian Coalition Right Wing Conservatives
Country program directors and Nashville record executives
Now I said I've made some mistakes, but I'm not as bad as those guys
How can God to this to me or can't she sympathize
He said you're wrong about God being cruel and mean
Oh God is the most loving thing that's never been seen
I said hotshot tell me this which religion is the truest
He said there all about the same, Budda was not a Christian, but Jesus woulda made a good buddist
Well I thought about my future I didn't seem to have much of one
I looked around to leave but there was no place to run
I said I don't suppose I could go back and try living again
You know like reincarnation I hear that's the way it's always been
I can't answer that he said you're gonna have to wait for that response
But it's not any more unusual to be born twice than it is to be born once
Well it looked like I was gonna be stuck here as far as I could tell
I thought I might as well suck up you know what the hell
I said you know that soung that Charlie Daniels did
About how you went down to Georgia and played fiddle against that kid
He said yeah it broke my heart but you know what are you gonna do
I said to tell you the truth I thought your solo was the better of the two
Well then I woke up and I was lying in my bed
I went upstairs and kissed my little boy on his sleeping head
I took this dream as a sign from God so I thought I'd better pray
I said don't ever speak to me directly and thanks anyway
Now so much has changed about me besides me just giving up red meat
Some get spiritual cause they see the light and some cause they feel the heat

Performer(s): Carlos Gardel;
and various other artists
Mary, Peggy, Betty, Julie, rubias de New York
cabecitas adoradas que vierten amor
dan envidia a las estrellas, yo no se vivir sin ellas
Mary, Peggy, Betty, Julie, de labios en flor
Es como un cristal la risa loca de Julie
es como el cantar de un manantial
turba mi soñar el dulce hechizo de Peggy
su mirar azul, hondo como el mar
Deliciosas criaturas perfumadas
quiero el beso de sus boquitas pintadas
son ágiles muñecas del olvido y del placer
rien su alegria como un cascabel
Rubio cóctel que emborracha, así es Mary
su melena que es de plata, quiero para mí
si el amor que me ogrecía, solo dura un breve día
tiene el fuego de una brasa, tu pasión, Peggy
Es como un cristal la risa loca de Julie
es como el cantar ...
