I Never Had A Chance
I Never Had A Chance
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Lew Sherwood
and multiple other artists
I never had a chance
I thought you cared for me
But now I see I never had a chance
I never had a chance
Though you never told me so
Somehow I know I never had a chance
I knew we’d have to part
For I could always reach your lips
But I could never reach your heart
My dream about romance ended in a friendly chat
But more than that I never had a chance
I guess there’s nothing to do and nothing to say
But simply go on my way and call it a day
I guess I’m ready to go right back on my shelf
Because at last I’ve learned, where you’re concerned
I’ve just been fooling myself
I never had a chance
Though you never told me so
Somehow I know I never had a chance
My dream about romance ended in a friendly chat
But more than that I never had a chance
Never had a chance

well, you broke my heart - when you said goodbye
and now the milk is spilled - but you're gonna cry
Yeah, early in the mornin' - you're gonna know
that I was right - oh ya ya
early in the mornin' - when there's nobody
to hold you tight, oh oh oh
Well, you're gonna want me - want me back
you're gonna miss the best man you ever had
yes, you're gonna miss me, you're gonna want me
one of these days, oh ya

Travestie
Travestie
Performer(s): Boudewijn de Groot
Ze is zeventien jaar en speelt gitaar
Verlegen zingt ze mijn repertoir
Zich niet bewust van het gevaar
Ik kijk naar haar
Zo'n meisje noemt zich dan een fan
Maar weet totaal niet wie ik ben
Zingt teksten die ik niet meer ken
Met haar lolitastem
Verder niets, er zijn alleen nog een paar dingen
Die ik houd omdat geen mens er iets aan heeft
Dat zijn mijn goede jeugdherinneringen
Die neem je mee zolang je verder leeft
Ik weet waarom ze me vertrouwt
Ik ben haar eerste Tellen-scout
En als ze zich daar niet aan houdt
Dan zit ze fout
Ik ben te oud voor wat je bent
Ik ben te oud voor wat je zingt
Die onschuld ben ik kwijt
Wat jij daar zingt is al geweest
Jij bent de schoonheid, ik het beest
Ik kleed je uit
En mijn geluk ging zomaar voor de bijl
Maar mijn verdriet kon jou niet zo veel schelen
En dat is toch beneden alle peil
Ik ben een Lorelei in travestie
Waarop jij je te pletter vaart
Mijn ijdelheid heeft jou verleid
En jouw gezang is mij niets meer waard
Ik wil je nu, hier op het kleed
En hou niet op tot je alles vergeet
Ik wil je nu, hier op het kleed
En hou niet op tot je alles vergeet

I Never Cried So Much In All My Life
I Never Cried So Much In All My Life
Composer(s): Will Haines; Jimmy Harper
Performer(s): Gracie Fields
Joe took me to the pictures the other evenin', it was fine
They called it The Betrayal, and the actin' was divine
It's the best film that they've had for years round at the Hippodrome
And it's a good job I took me handkerchief with me when I left home
Oh-oh-oh-oh, it was a lovely picture and I did enjoy it so
Oh-oh-oh-oh, I never cried so much in all my life
When the villains seized the maiden everybody shouted "oh"
Oh-oh-oh-oh, I never cried so much in all my life
He told her that he'd wed her, ha-ha-ha, then enticed her on his yacht
And then he got her tied up in a proper sailor's knot
Then he kissed her twice, the dirty dog, upon her beauty spot
Oh-oh-oh-oh, I never cried so much in all my life
It takes a lot to make me cry but oh dear, when I start
And think of what that girl went through I'm like a water cart
I see her eyes, I hear her voice at night when I'm in bed
And here's a scene I'll never, never get out of me head
As she faced the blinding snow storm and came trudging through the town
Oh-oh-oh-oh, I never cried so much in all my life
Oh, and when I saw her carrying their baby upside down
Oh..., I've never cried so much in all my life
She lingered near the Rose and Crown, the wind was howlin' wild
When up the village street, there came the father of her child
So she tapped him for a tanner, for a pint of Old and Mild
Oh..., I've never cried so much in all me life
The villain called on her one night, she was his one desire, ha-ha yeah
And because she wouldn't stand for him, what do you think he did, heh
What do you think he did, hah, set the house on fire
She rushed towards the window with her face all pale and sad
But the villain only laughed ha-ha then walked away, the cad
Oh, she looked so very pitiful upon the window sill
Oh… I've never cried so much in all my life
"Jump, jump" the people shouted, but she sat there calm and still
Oh… I've never cried so much in all my life
The flames burnt her kimona but she didn't seem to mind
Then she slid down a ladder
Oh, she did look so refined
Till upon a rusty nail she left her underclothes behind
Oh… I've never cried so much in all my life

Early Autumn
Early Autumn
Composer(s): Woody Herman - Ralph J. Burns - Johnny Mercer
First release by: Woody Herman - 1949
Covered by multiple other artists
When an early autumn walks the land and chills the breeze
And touches with her hand the summer trees
Perhaps you'll understand what memories I own
There's a dance pavilion, all shuttered down
A winding country lane, all russet brown
A frosty windowpane shows me a town grown lonely
That spring of ours that started, so April-hearted
Seemed made for just a boy and girl
I never dreamed, did you, any fall could come in view
So early, early
Darling, if you care, please let me know
I'll meet you anywhere, I miss you so
Let's never have to share another early autumn

If your man get personal, want you to have your fun
If your man get personal, want you to have your fun
Best come on back to Friars Point1, mama, and barrelhouse all night long

I got women's in Vicksburg, clean on into Tennessee
But my Friars Point1 rider, now, hops all over me
I ain't gon' to state no color but her, front teeth crowned with gold
I ain't gon' to state no color but her, front teeth is crowned with gold
She got a mortgage on my body, now, and a lien2 on my soul

Until You Fall In Love
Until You Fall In Love
Composer(s): Jack Popplewell; Michael Carr
Performer(s): Chick Henderson
and multiple other artists
Until you fall in love a love song’s just another tune
A lovers’ moon in June is just another moon
Until you fall in love the nights all seem to be the same
There is no lovers’ lane for you
But when love comes to find you
You’re in a world apart
Leave loneliness behind you
When heaven’s in your heart
You’ll never hear the bluebird singing in the sky above
You’ll never know that thrill until you fall in love

Earache My Eye
Composer(s): Cheech Marin - Tommy Chong - Gaye Delorme
First release by: Cheech & Chong featuring Alice Bowie - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists
My momma talkin' to me tryin' to tell me how to live
But I don't listen to her 'cause my head is like a sieve
My daddy, he disowned me 'cause I wear my sister's clothes
He caught me in the bathroom with a pair of pantyhose
My basketball coach, he done kicked me off the team
For wearin' high-heel sneakers and actin' like a queen
The world's comin' to an end, I don't even care
As long as I can have a limo and my orange hair
And it don't bother me if people think I'm "funny"
'Cause I'm a big rock star and I'm makin' lots of money
money, money, money, money, money, money
Ahhh! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...
I'm so bloody rich! Ha ha ha ha
I own apartment buildings and shopping centers! Ha ha ha ha
And I only know three chords! Ha ha ha ha

Yeah!
Well, I'm flying 'cross the land, trying to get a hand
Playing in a travelling band...

Hello!
Well, I bet you're surprised to hear me
I'm so glad you picked up the phone

Is one thing I understand
Now that I see one from another
I know I can be your man
You need so bad to believe
That my heart would be forever true
Now I'm standing right here, standing right here
Standing right in front of you
Now, I need some love in my life

I need you soul, soul confirmation
I need it so badly, oh so much
Baby, I miss your tender touch
You need so bad to believe
That my heart would forever be true
Now I'm standing right here
(Standing right here)
And I'm reaching out to you

Take it slow, Baby, console ya
(Need some love in my life)
Let the flow control ya

Squeeze ya, tease ya, need ya
Love, love, love, love

Eagle When She Flies
Eagle When She Flies
Composer(s): Dolly Parton
Performer(s): Dolly Parton
and multiple other artists
She's been there, God knows, she's been there
She has seen and done it all
She's a woman, she knows how to
Dish it out or take it all
Her heart's as soft as feathers
Still she weathers stormy skies
And she's a sparrow when she's broken
But she's an eagle when she flies
A kaleidoscope of colors
You can toss her around and 'round
You can keep her in your vision
But you'll never keep her down
She's a lover, she's a mother
She's a friend and she's a wife
And she's a sparrow when she's broken
But she's an eagle when she flies
Gentle as the sweet magnolia
Strong as steel, her faith and pride
She's an everlasting shoulder
She's the leaning post of life
She hurts deep and when she weeps
She's just as fragile as a child
And she's a sparrow when she's broken
But she's an eagle when she flies
She's a sparrow when she's broken
But she's an eagle when she flies
Oh, bless her, Lord
She's an eagle when she flies

First recording/First release: Cliff Richard and The Shadows - 1959
Got no bags and baggage to slow me down
I'm travellin' so fast my feet ain't touchin' the ground
Travellin' light, travellin' light
Well I just can't wait to be with my baby tonight
No comb and no toothbrush, I've got nothing to haul
I'm carryin' only, a pocket full of dreams, a heart full of love
And they weigh nothing at all
Soon I'm going to see that love look in her eyes
I'm a hoot and a holler away from paradise
Travellin' light, travellin' light
I just can't wait to be with my baby tonight
No comb and no toothbrush, I've got nothing to haul
I'm carryin' only, a pocket full of dreams, a hand full of love
And they weigh nothing at all
Soon I'm going to see that love look in her eyes
I'm a hoot and a holler away from paradise
Travellin' light, Hmmnn
Well I just can't wait to be with my baby tonight

I Need Your Love
I Need Your Love
Composer(s): Fred Sampson; Tom Scholz
Performer(s): Boston
Can’t help this feeling
Can’t help this feeling
I can’t believe it’s open for discussion
We’ve said our goodbyes
I’ve been a fool not to see the repercussions
You’ve had in my life
I’m at the point of no return
I’ve finally crossed the line
Don’t want to stop and watch the bridges burn
’cause I can’t stand to see you stay behind
I need your love
I want you every way
I need your love
Can’t help this feeling coming back everyday
I stayed around hoping you’d discover
How much there was to lose
I spelled it out, I led you to the water
But you’re too blind to choose
I gave it everything and more to make it
I’ve waited for so long
I saw the chance to run and had to take it
But something’s missing and I know it’s wrong
I need your love
I want you every way
And I need your love
Can’t help this feeling coming back everyday
I’ve passed the point of no return
And all the tears have dried
Don’t want to stop and watch the bridges burn
’cause I keep wishing I was on your side
I need your love
I want you every way
And I need your love
Can’t help this feeling
I need your love
I want you every way
I need your love
Can’t help this feeling coming back everyday

I don't know how it started, I don't know what I did
But there's a gal who's chasm' me who really flipped her lid
I call her my eager beaver baby, ooh eager beaver baby
Well what am I gonna do with that eager beaver baby of mine
She's always there beside me, no matter where I stop
She follows me at the movies, even to the barber shop
I call her my eager heaver baby, ooh eager beaver baby
Well what am I gonna do with that eager beaver baby of mine
She gets me in her parlor and switches off the light
Before I know what's happened she's a-huggin' me so tight
I call her my eager beaver baby, eager beaver baby
Well what am I gonna do with that eager beaver baby of mine
She loves to mess my hair up and loosen up my tie
And when she starts a-kissin', I'm a real gone guy
I call her my eager beaver baby, ooh eager beaver baby
Well what am I gonna do with that eager beaver baby of mine

Traveller's Prayer
Performer(s): Slim Dusty
May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
And the rains fall soft upon your tracks
And until, until we meet again
May God hold you safely in the palm of His hand
May the hills come down to greet you
May the rocks give shelter in the storm
May the dust be soft beneath your feet
And the dark give rest before the dawn
And until, until we meet again
May God hold you safely in the palm of His
In the palm of His hand
In the palm of his hand
in the palm of his hand
Safely in the palm of his hand
May your life have many memories
May your death be sweet and full of peace
May your hope last an eternity
And may your joy carry on and never cease
And until, until we meet again
May God hold you safely in the palm of His
And until, until we meet again
May God hold you safely in the palm of His
In the palm of His hand
In the palm of his hand

Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin
First release by: Elton John - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists
You’re not a ship to carry my life
You’re nailed to my love in many lonely nights
I strayed from the cottages and found myself here
But I need your love
Your love protects my fear
And I wonder sometimes and I know I’m unkind
But I need you to turn to when I act so blind
And I need you to turn to when I lose control
But it’s my guardian angel who keeps out the cold
Did you think you’ll smile on
Well, I said I knew that my reason for living was for loving you
We’re related in feeling of your high above
You’re pure and your gentle with the grace of a dove
And I wonder sometimes and I know I’m unkind
But I need you to turn to when I act so blind
And I need you to turn to when I lose control
But it’s my guardian angel who keeps out the cold
And I wonder sometimes and I know I’m unkind
To my guardian angel who keeps out the cold

Looks like a blue
blue day
Only wish that I could say

How to say what's on my mind
Till then you'll have to read my eyes
Looks like a blue day

Traveling Down The Blue Road
Traveling Down The Blue Road
Composer(s): Marshall Wilborn
Performer(s): Doyle Lawson
Traveling down the blue road
Wondering, hardly waiting just to get back home again
Winds are blowing down the blue road
Too long a loser, soon he's gonna win
He's worked in wood, worked in steel, call him what you will
Years can never outnumber the miles on his shoes
Been a lover and a fighter, gambler and moonshiner
Call him well-acquainted with the blues
Speak of oil fields, cottonfields, bright lights and city nights
Think about most any place he may have lived or died
There but now there's a lady who can turn back the miles
Gentle as a summer morning air
