Cuando Sale La Luna
Cuando Sale La Luna
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
and multiple other artists
Deja que salga la luna
deja que se meta el sol
deja que caiga la noche
pa'que empiece nuestro amor
Deja que las estrellas
me llenen de inspiración
para decirte cositas
muy bonitas corazón
Yo no sé que no hay en el mundo
amor como el que me das
y sé que no che con noche
va creciendo más y más
(Y sé que noche con noche
va creciendo más y más)
Cuando estoy entre tus brazos
siempre me pregunto yo
cuanto me debía el destino
que contigo me pagó
Por eso es que ya mi vida
toda te la entrego a ti
tú que me diste en un beso
lo que nunca te pedí
Yo no se que no hay en el mundo
amor como el que me das
y sé que noche con noche
va creciendo más y más
(Y sé que noche con noche
va creciendo más y más)
Deja que salga la luna

(Is Anybody Goin' To) San Antone
(Is Anybody Goin' To) San Antone
Composer(s): Dave Kirby; Glenn Martin
Performer(s): Charley Pride;
and various other artists
Rain drippin' off the brim of my hat
It sure looks cold today
Here I am a-walkin' down 66
Wish she hadn't done me this way
Sleepin' under a table in a roadside park
A man could wake up dead
But it sure seemed warmer than it did
Sleepin' in my king-size bed
Is anybody goin' to San Antone or Phoenix, Arizona?
Any place is all right as long as I can forget I've ever known her
Wind whippin' down the neck of my shirt
Like I aint got nothin' on
But I'd rather fight the wind and rain
Than what I was fightin' at home
Is anybody goin' to San Antone or Phoenix, Arizona?
Any place is all right as long as I can forget I've ever known her
Yonder comes a truck with the U.S. mail
For people writin' letters back home
Well, tomorrow she'll want me back again
But I'll still be just as gone
Is anybody goin' to San Antone or Phoenix, Arizona?
Any place is all right as long as I can forget I've ever known her

Three Wheels On My Wagon
Three Wheels On My Wagon
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach - Bob Hilliard
Performer(s): The New Christy Minstrels
Three wheels on my wagon
And I’m still rolling along
The Cherokees are chasing me
Arrows fly, right on by
But I’m singing a happy song
I’m singing a higgity, haggity, hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die
A mile up the road there’s a hidden cave
And we can watch those Cherokees
Go galloping by
“George, they’re catching up to us!”
“Get back in the wagon woman!”
Two wheels on my wagon
And I’m still rolling along
Them Cherokees are after me
Flaming spears, burn my ears
But I’m singing a happy song
I’m singing a higgity, haggity hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die
Half a mile up the road there’s a hidden cave
And we can watch those Cherokees
Go galloping by
“Duh, Paw? Are you sure this is the right road?”
“Will you hush up? You and your maps!”
One wheel on my wagon
And I’m still rolling along
Them Cherokees after me
I’m all in flames, at the reins
But I’m singing a happy song
I’m singing a higgity, haggity hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die
Right around that turn there’s a hidden cave
And we can watch those Cherokees
Go galloping by
“George? Should I get the bag of beads and trinkets?”
“Woman, I know what I’m doing!”
No wheels on my wagon
So I’m not rolling along
The Cherokees captured me
They look mad, things look bad
But I’m singing a happy song
“C’mon all you Cherokees sing along with me!”
Higgity, haggity hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die...

Cuando Pienso En Tí
Cuando Pienso En Tí
Composer(s): Jean Manuel DeScarano; Leroy Gomez
Performer(s): José Feliciano
Cuando pienso en ti
recuerdo que contigo
conocí el amor
me sangran las heridas
que dejé, qué haré sin ti?
Cuando te perdí
buscaba en mi almohada
siempre tu calor
me ahogaba muy adentro este dolor
dónde estás mi amor?
Cuando pienso en ti
tu cuerpo en mi cuerpo
vuelvo yo a sentir
Cuando pienso en ti
recuerdo aquellas noches
sin fin, sin fin
Cuando pienso en ti
me aferro a este dolor
que siempre vive en mí
Cuando pienso en ti
recuerdo a ese hombre que yo fui
que yo te di
Cuando pienso en ti
me envuelve la tristeza
de un presente gris
me abrazo a la nostalgia
porque así soy feliz
estás en mí

(In The) Land Of Make Believe
(In The) Land Of Make Believe
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach; Hal David
Performer(s): The Drifters;
and various other artists
In the land of make believe you're mine tonight
Although you are far away
In the land of make believe I'm holding you tight
A silver moon is shining above
And there's love in your eyes
And I'm kissing you like I used to do
Yesterday in paradise.
I've been livin'
In the land of make believe since you've been gone
I need you so much that
Without your love I must deceive myself to go on
Your lovin' hand caresses my face
We embrace tenderly
Never will we part, deep down in my heart
You are always here with me
You are always here with me
In the land of make believe
In the land of make believe
You are always here with me
In the land of make believe

Three Ways
Three Ways
Performer(s): Kitty Wells
There are three ways
Three ways
Three ways to love you it's true
One is the wrong way
And one is the right way
But the best is the way I love you
One is the wrong way
Like some people do
They kiss and the lie
And they'll never be true
But soon they will wonder
Why love flies away
And tho how they cry
When they find out it's true
There are three ways
Three ways
Three ways to love you it's true
One is the wrong way
And one is the right way
But the best is the way I love you
One is the right way
Tho some people say
With dinning and dancing
In some caberet
Now some girls may think
This is really ideal
But to late they find out
Their life isn't real
There are three ways
Three ways
Three ways to love you it's true
One is the wrong way
And one is the right way
But the best is the way I love you
One is the best way
The way I love you
With all of my heart
And for all my life through
I'll cling to you only
Forget all the rest
I'll show you my darling
That my ways the best

Cuando Orfeo Canta Su Canción
Cuando Orfeo Canta Su Canción
Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero
Me despojo de todos mis disfraces
oigo voces en las grutas marinas
sé tu nombre porque siempre lo supe
hago magia con las nubes amigas
Mi soledad se esfuma
Abrazo a un árbol
y las ramas me dan su bienvenida
Náufrago en el misterio de las cosas
tiemblo en la libertad de las caricias
Y el viejo corazón
aprende a tolerar la dulzura
cuando Orfeo canta su canción
Me asomo al resplandor de algunos ojos.
el dolor de estar lejos dulcificas
me siento limpio como el día nuevo
más que nunca soy tuyo y tú eres mía
Y el viejo corazón
aprende a tolerar la dulzura
cuando Orfeo canta su canción

(I'm Watching) Every Little Move You Make
(I'm Watching) Every Little Move You Make
Composer(s): Paul Anka
Performer(s): Little Peggy March;
Paul Anka; Sylvie Vartan
I'm watching you
Watching you to see
What you're doing without me
Now that you've been gone
I'm watching you
Watching every girl
As you give them all the eye
And dance another song
Yeah, I'm watching every little move you make
Every little step you take
Every little heart you break
Yeah, every little thing
Every little word you sigh
Is every little time I die
And every little time I try
To look the other way
But I keep watching you
I take a little peek
As I see you cheek to cheek
Oh, the jealousy
I'm watching you
You know I'm on the floor
So you pour it on some more
Just to torture me
(Instrumental Break)
Yeah, I'm watching every little move you make
Every little step you take
Every little heart you break
Yeah, every little thing
Every little word you sigh
Is every little time I die
And every little time I try
To look the other way
But I keep watching you
I'm watching you
Watching you to see
What you're doing without me
Now that you've been gone
I'm watching you
Watching every girl
As you give them all the eye
And dance another song
(Fades to end)
I'm watching you
Watching you to see
What you're doing without me
Now that you've been gone

Three Times A Lady
Three Times A Lady
Composer(s): Lionel Richie
First release by: The Commodores - 1978
Covered by multiple other artists
Thanks for the times that you´ve given me
The memories are all in my mind
And now that we´ve come to the end of our rainbow
There´s something I must say out loud
You´re once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you...
Yes, you´re once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you... I love you...
When we are together the moments I cherish
With every beat of my heart
To touch you, to hold you
To feel you, to need you
There´s nothing to keep us apart
You´re once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you... I love you...
You shared my dreams, my joys, my pain
You´ve made my life worth living for
And if I had to live my life over again
I´d spend each and every moment with you
You´re once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you... I love you...

Cuando No Estabas Tu
Cuando No Estabas Tu
Composer(s): José Luis Perales
Performer(s): Raphael
No tuve mas caricias que las tuyas
No tuve mas calor que tu mirada
No tuve nada
Cuando no estabas tu
Cuando no estabas tu yo no era nada
Cuando no estabas tu
Cuando no estabas tu yo no era nada
No tuve mas amor que el que me diste
No tuve mas cobijo que tu alma
No tuve nada
Cuando no estabas tu
Cuando no estabas tu yo no era nada
Cuando no estabas tu
Cuando no estabas tu yo no era nada
Mirame, hoy canto para ti, tan solo para ti
Mirame, oyeme, quiereme mucho
Mirame, oyeme, quiereme como yo
Porque no hay otros brazos que los tuyos
Ni tuve otra mujer enamorada
No tuve nada
Cuando no estabas tu
Cuando no estabas tu yo no era nada
Cuando no estabas tu
Cuando no estabas tu yo no era nada
Mirame, hoy canto para ti, tan solo para ti
Mirame, oyeme, quiereme mucho
Mirame, oyeme, quiereme como yo

Composer(s): Tommy Boyce; Bobby Hart
Performer(s): Paul Revere & The Raiders;
and various other artists
I I I I I'm not your stepping stone
I I I I I'm not your stepping stone
You're trying to make your mark in society
Using all the tricks that you used on me
You're reading all those high fashion magazines
The clothes you're wearin' girl are causing public scenes
I said
I I I I I'm not your stepping stone
I I I I I'm not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone
When I first met you girl you didn't have no shoes
Now you're walking 'round like you're front page news
You've been awful careful 'bout the friends you choose
But you won't find my name in your book of Who's Who
I said
I I I I I'm not your stepping stone
I I I I I'm not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone

Three Time Loser (Rod Stewart)
Three Time Loser
Composer(s): Rod Stewart
Performer(s): Rod Stewart
Stand here ev'ry night
I'm wearin' my number
but she said wear it
touching up another fool
In a jukebox job downin' blues
in her leopard-skin anklehigh boots
while I'm jackin' off
readin' Playboy on a hot afternoon
I'm a three time loser
Caught it up in Monterey
shook it up in East Virginia
now my friends say it's here to stay
How dare you have a party
in a Chelsea basement
when the poor excited Jezebel said come outside
She felt me up and kissed my face
put her dirty hands down in my pants
She took all of my money
left me naked by the silvery moon
I'm a three time loser
Caught it up in Monterey
shook it up in East Virginia
now my friends say it's here to stay
Roll away, roll away, all of you women
I don't think I need you anymore
There'll be no more doctor's bills
there'll be no more swallowing pills
And I've found a woman
that can witness that in blood out of me
I'm a three time loser
Caught it up in Monterey
shook it up in East Virginia
now my friends say it's here to stay
I'm a three time loser
Caught it up in Monterey
shook it up in East Virginia
now my friends say it's here to stay

Crystal Chandeliers
Crystal Chandeliers
Composer(s): Ted Harris
First release by: Carl Belew - 1965
Oh the crystal chandeliers light up the paintings on your wall
The marble statuettes are standing stately in the hall
But will the timely crowd that has you laughing loud help you dry your tears
When the new wears off of your crystal chandeliers
I never did fit in too well with the folks you knew
And it's plain to see that the likes of me don't fit with you
So you traded me for the gaiety of the well to do
And you turned away from the love I offered you
Oh the crystal chandeliers...
I see your picture in the news most every day
You're the chosen girl of the social world so the stories say
But a paper smile only lasts a while then it fades away
And the love we knew will come home to you some day
Oh the crystal chandeliers...
When the new wears off of your crystal chandeliers

(I'm Just A) Redneck In A Rock & Roll Bar
(I'm Just A) Redneck In A Rock & Roll Bar
Composer(s): Bill Anthony; Bob Morrison
Performer(s): Jerry Reed
Instrumental Intro
Well hello, Boogie Palace
I'm sittin' here alone
Listening to the music
Of electric saxophones
Now, there ain't no sexy dresses
And there ain't no beehive hair
Just boys who look like girls
Who look like boys, who look like Cher
I'm just a redneck
In a Rock 'n' Roll bar
I miss the fiddle
And a steel guitar
They're starin' at me
Like a bug in a jar
I'm just a redneck
In a Rock 'n' Roll bar
I stopped in here to have a beer
To ask some gal to dance
But, I been waitin' patient now
And I ain't had the chance
'Cause they ain't played any walzes
Nothing like a Texas swing
And with no belly rubbin' music
How in the hell can I do my thing?
I'm just a redneck
In a Rock 'n' Roll bar
I miss the fiddle
And a steel guitar
They're starin' at me
Like a bug in a jar
I'm just a redneck
In a Rock 'n' Roll bar
Well goodbye, Boogie Palace
I'm a gettin' outta here
Back to Country music
And back to Lone Star beer
Where the women look like women
And they dress so you can tell
And the men are good ol' boys
Just drinkin' beer and raisin' hell
I'm just a redneck
In a Rock 'n' Roll bar
I miss the fiddle
And a steel guitar
They're starin' at me
Like a bug in a jar
I'm just a redneck
In a Rock 'n' Roll bar
[Fade to End]
I'm just a redneck
In a Rock 'n' Roll bar
I miss the fiddle
And a steel guitar
They're starin' at me
Like a bug in a jar
I'm just a redneck
In a Rock 'n' Roll bar

Three Time Loser (David Allan Coe)
Three Time Loser
Composer(s): David Allan Coe
Performer(s): David Allan Coe
Once I tried my hand at stealing
Trying to fill that empty feeling
Trying hard to keep from dealing drugs
I was much to young to take it
Back when it was hard to make it
On the run with a gun or with a gang of thugs
Three time loser, it's all behind me now
Twice I fell in love and married
Thinking that the past was buried
Funny how those women carried on
Swearing that our love was dying
Like the weeping willow crying
Through the night and every fight
Until our love was gone
Freedom lost and love gone sour
Losing minutes by the hour
Too afraid to let my sorrow show
Dying slow from too much drinking
Quitting when I started sinking
To the bottom of the bottle that's too far to go
