A Night in Tunisia

The moon is the same moon above youAglow with its cool evening light

But shining at night in TunisiaNever does it shine so bright.

The stars are aglow in the heavensBut only the wise understand

That shining at night in TunisiaThey guide you through the desert sand.

Words fail to tell a taleToo exotic to be told

Each night's a deeper nightIn a world ages old.

The cares of the day seem to vanishThe ending of day brings releaseEach wonderful night in Tunisia

Where the nights are filled with peace.

The credits are (Gillespie-Paparelli-Hendricks), so I don't know how much of the words below are Jon Hendricks and how much are 'Paparelli'. My best guess is that these words are

by Paparelli, whoever he/she is, and that Hendricks' contribution was the words to the jazz improvisation (the Charlie Parker solo), which appear on the Manhattan Transfer album 'Vocalese' sung by Hendricks himself [indecipherably, for the most part]. Ella's version

includes only the main head of the song:

As Time Goes By(Hupfeld)

This day and age we're living in Gives cause for apprehension With speed and new invention

And things like fourth dimension Yet we get a trifle weary

With Mr. Einstein's theory So we must get down to earth at times

Relax relieve the tension And no matter what the progress

Or what may yet be proved The simple facts of life are such

They cannot be removedYou must remember this

A kiss is still a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh The fundamental things apply

As time goes byAnd when two lovers woo They still say, "I love you"

On that you can rely No matter what the future brings

As time goes byMoonlight and love songs

Never out of date Hearts full of passion

Jealousy and hate Woman needs man

And man must have his mate That no one can deny

Well, it's still the same old story A fight for love and glory

A case of do or die The world will always welcome lovers

As time goes by Oh yes, the world will always welcome lovers

As time goes by

Ballad of a thin man (Bob Dylan)You walk into the room

With your pencil in your handYou see somebody naked

And you say, "Who is that man?"You try so hard

But you don't understandJust what you'll sayWhen you get home

Because something is happening hereBut you don't know what it is

Do you, Mister Jones?

You raise up your headAnd you ask, "Is this where it is?"

And somebody points to you and says"It's his"

And you say, "What's mine?"And somebody else says, "Where what is?"

And you say, "Oh my GodAm I here all alone?"

Because something is happening hereBut you don't know what it is

Do you, Mister Jones?

You hand in your ticketAnd you go watch the geek

Who immediately walks up to youWhen he hears you speak

And says, "How does it feelTo be such a freak?"

And you say, "Impossible"As he hands you a bone

Because something is happening hereBut you don't know what it is

Do you, Mister Jones?

You have many contacts

Among the lumberjacksTo get you facts

When someone attacks your imaginationBut nobody has any respect

Anyway they already expect youTo just give a check

To tax-deductible charity organizations

You've been with the professorsAnd they've all liked your looks

With great lawyers you haveDiscussed lepers and crooksYou've been through all ofF. Scott Fitzgerald's books

You're very well readIt's well known

Because something is happening hereBut you don't know what it is

Do you, Mister Jones?

Well, the sword swallower, he comes up to youAnd then he kneelsHe crosses himself

And then he clicks his high heelsAnd without further noticeHe asks you how it feels

And he says, "Here is your throat backThanks for the loan"

Because something is happening hereBut you don't know what it is

Do you, Mister Jones?

Now you see this one-eyed midgetShouting the word "NOW"

And you say, "For what reason?"And he says, "How?"

And you say, "What does this mean?"And he screams back, "You're a cow

Give me some milkOr else go home"

Because something is happening hereBut you don't know what it is

Do you, Mister Jones?

Well, you walk into the roomLike a camel and then you frownYou put your eyes in your pocket

And your nose on the groundThere ought to be a law

Against you comin' aroundYou should be madeTo wear earphones

Because something is happening hereBut you don't know what it is, Do you, Mister Jones?

BELLA CIAOChant des partisans antifascistes italiens durant la 2nde GM

Una matina, mi son alzatto,O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao !

Una matina, mi son alzatto,E ho trovato l’invasor.

Oh partigiano, porta mi via,O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao !

Oh partigiano, porta mi via,Che mi sento di morir.

E se io muoio da partigiano,O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao !

E se io muoio da partigianoTu mi devi sepellir.

E sepellire lassu in montagna,O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao !

E sepellire lassu in montagnaSotto l’ombra di un bel fior.

E le genti que passerano,O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao !

E le genti que passeranoMi dirano : Que bel fior !

E questo è il fiore del partigiano,O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao !

E questo è il fiore del partigianoMorto per la liberta,

E questo è il fiore del partigianoMorto per la liberta ! (bis)

Black Coffee

I'm feelin' mightly lonesome,Haven't slept a wink,

I walk the floor and watch the doorand in between I drink.....

Black coffee, Love's a hand me down brew

I'll never know a Sunday in this week day room.

I'm talking to the shadows1 o'clock to four,

and lord how slow the moments gowhen all I do is pour

Black coffeeSince the blues caught my eye.

I'm hanging out on Monday,My Sunday dreams to dry.

Now a man is born to go a lovin'A woman's born to weep and fret

To stay at home and tend her ovenAnd drown her past regrets

in coffee and cigarettes.I'm moonin' all the mornin'

mournin' all the nightand in between it's nicotine and not much heart to fight

Black coffeeFeelin' low as the ground,

it's drivin' me crazy, this waitin' for my babyTo maybe come around.

My nerves have gone to piecesMy hair is turnin' grey

All I do is drink black coffee,Since my man's gone away.

Bridge Over Troubled Water(Johnny Cash )

When you’re weary, feeling smallWhen tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all

I’m on your side when times get roughAnd friends just can’t be found

Like a bridge over troubled waterI will lay me down

Like a bridge over troubled waterI will lay me down

When you’re down and outWhen you’re on the street

When evening falls so hardI will comfort youI’ll take your part

When darkness comesAnd pain is all around

Like a bridge over troubled waterI will lay me down

Like a bridge over troubled waterI will lay me down

Sail on silvergirlSail on by

Your time has come to shineAll your dreams are on their way

See how they shineIf you need a friend

I’m sailing right behindLike a bridge over troubled water

I will ease your mindLike a bridge over troubled water

I will ease your mind

CaravanNight and stars above that shine so bright

The myst'ry of their fading light That shines upon our caravan

Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep Across the sand so I may keep

The mem'ry of our caravanThis is so exciting

 You are so inviting  Resting in my arms

 As I thrill to the magic charmsOf you beside me here beneath the blue

My dream of love is coming true Within our desert caravan!

Or blow me a kissAnd that's lucky too

Now as the ladder of life'As been strung

You may think a sweep'sOn the bottommost rung

Though I spends me timeIn the ashes and smokeIn this 'ole wide world

There's no 'appier bloke

Up where the smoke isAll billered and curled

'Tween pavement and starsIs the chimney sweep world

When the's 'ardly no dayNor 'ardly no night

There's things 'alf in shadowAnd 'alf way in light

On the roof tops of LondonCoo, what a sight!

I choose me bristles with prideYes, I do

A broom for the shaftAnd a broom for the flume

Though I'm covered with sootFrom me 'ead to me toes

A sweep knows 'e's welcomeWherever 'e goes

Chim chimineyChim chiminey

Chim chim cher-ee!

No where is thereA more 'appier crewThan them wot sings"Chim chim cher-ee

Chim cher-oo!"On the chim chiminey

Chim chim cher-eeChim cher-oo!

Heaven, I’m in heavenAnd my heart beats so that I can hardly speak

And the cares that hung around me through the weekSeem to vanish like a gambler’s lucky streak

When we’re out together dancing (swinging) cheek to cheek

Oh I love to climb a mountainAnd reach the highest peak

But it doesn’t thrill (boot) me half as muchAs dancing cheek to cheek

Oh I love to go out fishingIn a river or a creek

But I don’t enjoy it half as muchAs dancing cheek to cheek

(come on and) dance with meI want my arm(s) about you

That (those) charm(s) about youWill carry me through...

(right up) to heaven, I’m in heavenAnd my heart beats so that I can hardly speak

And I seem to find the happiness I seekWhen we’re out together dancing, out together dancing (swinging)

Out together dancing cheek to cheek

Chega de Saudade(Tom Jobim e Vinícius de Moraes)

Int.: Dm7

Vai minha tristeza e diz à elaQue sem ela não pode ser

Diz-lhe numa prece que ela regressePorque eu não posso mais sofrer

Chega de saudade, a realidade é que sem elaNão há paz, não há beleza, é só tristeza

E a melancolia que não sai de mim, não sai de mim, não sai

Mas se ela voltar, se ela voltarQue coisa linda, que coisa louca

Pois há menos peixinhos a nadar no marDo que os beijinhos que eu darei na sua boca

Dentro dos meus braços os abraços hão de ser milhões de abraçosApertado assim, colado assim, calado assimAbraços e beijinhos e carinhos sem ter fim

Que é pra acabar com esse negócio de viver longe de mimNão quero mais esse negócio de você viver assim

Vamos deixar desse negócio de você viver sem mim

Well, you can cry me a riverCry me a river

I cried a river over youNow you say you're sorry

For being so untrueWell, you can cry me a river

Told me you were through with meNow you say you love meWell, just to prove you do

Cry me a riverCry me a river

I cried a river over youYou drove me

Nearly drove me out of my headWhile you never shed a tear

Remember?I remember all that you said Told me love was to plebeian

Well, just to prove that you do...Come on! Come on!

Cry me a river...Cry me a river...

I cried a river over youI cried a river over you...

Dance me to the end of love (Leonard Cohen)Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin

Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely inLift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove

Dance me to the end of loveDance me to the end of love

Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are goneLet me feel you moving like they do in BabylonShow me slowly what I only know the limits of

Dance me to the end of loveDance me to the end of love

Dance me to the wedding now, dance me on and onDance me very tenderly and dance me very long

We're both of us beneath our love, we're both of us aboveDance me to the end of loveDance me to the end of love

Dance me to the children who are asking to be bornDance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn

Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is tornDance me to the end of love

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violinDance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in

Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your gloveDance me to the end of loveDance me to the end of loveDance me to the end of love

Day In The Life Of A Fool

A day in the life of a fool.A sad and a long, lonely day.

I walk the avenueAnd hope I'll run into

The welcome sight of youcoming my way.I stop just acrossfrom your door,

But you're never homeanymore.

So back to my roomand there in the gloom

I crytears of goodbye.

'Til you come back to me,that's the way it will be

ev'ry day in the life of a fool.

Desperado (Johnny Cash)

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?You been out ridin' fences for so long now.

Oh, you're a hard one,But I know that you've got your reasons.

These things that are pleasin' you,Can hurt you somehow.

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy,She'll beat you if she's able.

Know the queen of hearts is always your best bet.Now it seems to me, some fine things,

Have been laid upon your table.But you only want the things that you can't get.

Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger:Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home.

And freedom, oh freedom,Well, that's just some people talkin'

Your prison is walking,Through this world all alone.

And don't your feet get cold in the winter time?The sky won't snow, the sun won't shine

It's hard to tell the night time from the dayYou're loosin' all your highs and lows

Ain't it funny how the feeling,Goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?Come down from your fences, and open the gate

It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you,You better let somebody love you,You better let somebody love you,You better let somebody love you,

Before it's too late.

Don't know why (Norah Jones)I waited 'til I saw the sun

I don't know why I didn't come I left you by the house of fun

I don't know why I didn't come I don't know why I didn't come

When I saw the break of day I wished that I could fly away Instead of kneeling in the sand Catching teardrops in my hand

My heart is drenched in wine But you'll be on my mind

Forever

Out across the endless sea I would die in ecstasy

But I'll be a bag of bones Driving down the road alone

My heart is drenched in wine But you'll be on my mind

Forever

Something has to make you run I don't know why I didn't come

I feel as empty as a drum I don't know why I didn't come I don't know why I didn't come

Dream a little dream of me(W.Schwant/F.Andre/G.Kahn)

Stars shining bright above you Night breezes seem to whisper I love you

Birds singing in the sycamore tree Dream a little dream of me

Say nighty night and kiss me just hold me tight and tell me you miss me

While I'm alone and blue as can be Dream an little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on dear still craving your kiss

now I'm longing to linger till dawn dear just saying this

Sweet dreams till something find you sweet dream that leave your worries behind you

But in your dreams whatever they be Dream a little dream of me

But fading but I linger on dear still craving your kiss

but I'm longing to linger till dawn just saying this

But in your dreams whatever they be you gotta make me a promise

promise to me you'll dream a little dream of me

French Version

Ce souvenir je te le rends. Des souvenirs, tu sais j'en ai tellement.

Puisqu'on reva de jours errants. Pas la peine de changer trop...Ce souvenir je te le prends.

Des souvenirs, comme ca j'en ai tout le temps. Si par erreur la vie nous separe,

J'le sortirai d'mon tiroir.

J'reve les yeux ouverts. Ca m'fait du bien.

Page 23: PAROLES STANDARDS JAZZ - Freestolen.moments.free.fr/paroles.doc  · Web viewShouting the word "NOW" And you say, ... QUIET CHORDS FROM MY GUITAR FLOATING IN THE SILENCE THAT SURROUNDS

Ca ne va pas plus loin. J'vais pas voir derriere Puisque j'aime bien. Vivement demain.

Un dernier verre de sherry. Du sherry mon amant quand je m'ennuie. Tous les jours se ressemblent a present.

Tu me manques terriblement...  

This memory I'm giving back to you. These memories, you know I have so many.

Since we dreamed of passing days No need to change too much.

This memory I'm taking from you. Memories like that happen to me all the time.

If life mistakenly sets us apart, I'll get it from my drawer.

I dream with my eyes open. It feels good.

It does not go any farther. I don't look back Since I feel good.

I wish tomorrow would come quick.A last glass of sherry.

Sherry, my love, when I feel sad. All days look alike to me now.

I miss you so terribly.

Essa Moça Tá Diferente (Chico Buarque)

Essa moça tá diferenteJá não me conhece maisEstá pra lá de pra frente

Está me passando pra trásEssa moça tá decididaA se supermodernizar

Ela só samba escondidaQue é pra ninguém reparar

Eu cultivo rosas e rimasAchando que é muito bom

Ela me olha de cimaE vai desinventar o som

Faço-lhe um concerto de flautaE não lhe desperto emoção

Ela quer ve o astronautaDescer na televisão

Mas o tempo vaiMas o tempo vem

Ela me desfazMas o que é que tem

Que ela só me guarda despeitoQue ela só me guarda desdém

Mas o tempo vaiMas o tempo vem

Ela me desfazMas o que é que tem

Se do lado esquerdo do peitoNo fundo, ela ainda me quer bem

Essa moça tá diferente (etc.)

Essa moça é a tal da janelaQue eu me cansei de cantar

E agora está só na delaBotando só pra quebrar

Mas o tempo vai (etc.)

Everytime we say goodbye (Cole Porter)

Everytime we say goodbye, I die a little,Everytime we say goodbye, I wonder why a little,

Why the Gods above me, who must be in the know.Think so little of me, they allow you to go.

When you're near, there's such an air of spring about it,I can hear a lark somewhere, begin to sing about it,

There's no love song finer, but how strange the change from major to minor,Everytime we say goodbye.

When you're near, there's such an air of spring about it,I can hear a lark somewhere, begin to sing about it,

There's no love song finer, but how strange the change from major to minor,Everytime we say goodbye.

Falling In Love Again – (Marlene Dietrich)

Falling in love again Never wanted to What am I to do

I can't help itLove's always been my game

Play it how I may I was made that way

I can't help itMen cluster to me

Like moths around a flame And if their wings burn I know I'm not to blame

Falling in love again Never wanted to What am I to do

I can't help it

Fever

Never know how much I love youNever know how much I care,

When you put your arms around meI get a fever that's so hard to bear

You give me fever, when you kiss meFever when you hold me tight.

Fever, in the morning, Fever all though the night.Sun lights up the daytime, Moon lights up the night

And I light up when you call my nameAnd Oooh I'm gonna treat you right

You give me feverWhen you kiss me

Fever when you hold me tightFever, in the morning

Fever all through the night.Everybody's got the fever,

That is something you oughta knowFever isn't such a new thing

Fever started long ago.Romeo loved Juliet, Juliet she felt the same

When he put his arms around her, He said julie baby you're my flameNow give me fever, when we kiss,

Fever with that flame in useFever, I'm on fire, fever yeah I burn forsooth.

Captain Smith & PocahontasHad a very mad affair

when her daddy tried to kill him, She said daddy oh don't you dare

Fly me to the moon(Bart Howard)

(Artist: Frank Sinatra, Count Basie)

Intro: Poets often use many words to say a simple thing.

It takes thought and time and rhyme to make a poem sing. With music and words I've been playing.

For you I have written a song To be sure that you'll know what I'm saying,

I'll translate as I go along.

Fly me to the moon Let me sing among those stars Let me see what spring is like

On Jupiter and MarsIn other words, hold my hand In other words, baby kiss me

Fill my heart with song Let me sing for ever more

You are all I long for All I worship and adore

In other words, please be true In other words, I love you

Frim Fram Sauce (Diana Krall)

I don't want french fried potatoes,Red ripe tomatoes, I'm never satisfied,

I want the Frim Fram sauce with the ausanfey,With shififah on the side

I don't want pork chops and bacon,That won't awaken my appetite inside,

I want the Frim Fram sauce with the ausanfey,With shififah on the side

Well, you know, a girl has really got to eatAnd a girl, she should eat right

Five will get you tenI'm gonna feed myself right tonight

I don't want fish cakes and rye bread,You heard what I said, waiter please serve mine fried

I want the Frim Fram sauce with the ausanfey,With shififah on the side

JohnnO also posted his thoughts on alt.music.lyrics:There's a good reason that you couldn't decipher that part...because it's gibberish. In Nat's original

version, there's a tip-off sentence that explains the whole thing. Here first is Diana's version, followed by Nat's. Each of them, by the way, uses a different gibberish line in the song, so each has been given

the one specific to that performer.Having said that, I must, in all fairness, give equal time to those who have a dissenting opinion.

Quoting from the liner notes to Mosaic's 18-CD set, "Some older musicians contend that, while the title made as much sense as "Shoo Fly Pie," in fact there really was an "Ausen" bakery that served

something called "chefafa" on the side."Personally, I wonder more about what those "older musicians" had been drinking than what they had

been eating...especially in light of Nat's final line.There was a wealth of material to choose from for Nat, this being one of his most-recorded songs,

including a V-disc recording andat least 3 live versions that have been issued on CD alone, ALL of which include the final line that

explains the whole thing. I wentwith the domestically-released studio version for the transcript.

Anyway, it's a shame to realize that my dream girl has feet of clay... leaving out the joke without which the song makes no sense. But she compensates for it with a neat stride intro which sounds a lot like

Fats Waller with a hangover...as opposed to Nat's own intro,which sounds more like Art Tatum on 'ludes...and I must say it's refreshing to know that this is the

second lyric fromDiana/Nat I've been asked to post here...

Now that we are one, the beguine has just begun.Now that we're side by side, the future looks so gay,

Now we are allibied when we say.......From this moment on, you for me dear

Only two for tea dear, from this moment on, From this happy day, no more blue songs,

Only whoop dee doo songs,From this moment on.

For you've got the love I need so much,Got the skin I love to touch,

Got the arms to hold me tight,Got the sweet lips to kiss me goodnight,From this moment on, you and I, babe,

We'll be ridin' high, babe.Every care is gone, from this moment on.

Girl from Ipanema, The

Tall and tan and young and lovely The girl from Ipanema goes walking

And when she passes, each one she passes goes - ahWhen she walks, she's like a samba

That swings so cool and sways so gentle That when she passes, each one she passes goes - ooh

(Ooh) But I watch her so sadly How can I tell her I love her

Yes I would give my heart gladly But each day, when she walks to the sea

She looks straight ahead, not at meTall, (and) tan, (and) young, (and) lovely

The girl from Ipanema goes walking And when she passes, I smile - but she doesn't see (doesn't see)

(She just doesn't see, she never sees me,...)

Garota de Ipanema olha que coisa mais linda

mais cheia de graca e a menina que ven e que passa

um doce balanco a caminho do marmoca do corpo dourado do sol de ipamena

o seu balancado e mais que um poema e a coisa mais linda que eu ja vi passar

ah...porque tudo e tao triste ah...a beleza que  existe

a beleza  que nao e so minha que tambem passa sozinha

ah. se ela soubesse que quando ela passa o mundo sorrindo se enche de graca e fica mais lindo por causa do amor...

Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen)

I've heard there was a secret chordThat David played and it pleased the LordBut you don't really care for music do you?

It goes like thisThe fourth,The fifth,

The minor fall, the major liftThe baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah,Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proofYou saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew youShe tied you

To a kitchen chairShe broke your throne and cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah,Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Baby I've been here beforeI know this room I've walked this floorI used to live alone before I knew youI've seen your flag on the Marble Arch

Love is not a Victory marchIt's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah,Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Now Maybe there's a God aboveBut all I ever learned from love

was how to shoot at someone who outdrew youIt's not a cry you can hear at night

It's not a pilgrim who's seen the lightIt's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah,Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time when you let me knowWhat was real and going on below

But now you never show it to me, do you?And remember when I moved in you?

The Holy Dove was moving tooAnd every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah,Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You say I took the name in vainBut I don't even know the name

But if I did, well really, what's it to you?There's a blaze of light in every word

It doesn't matter which you heardThe holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah,

Il N'y A Pas d'Amour Heureux(George Brassens, Louis Aragon)

Rien n'est jamais acquis à l'homme. Ni sa forceNi sa faiblesse ni son coeur. Et quand il croit

Ouvrir ses bras son ombre est celle d'une croixEt quand il croit serrer son bonheur il le broieSa vie est un étrange et douloureux divorce

Il n'y a pas d'amour heureux

Sa vie elle ressemble à ces soldats sans armesQu'on avait habillés pour un autre destinÀ quoi peut leur servir de se lever matin

Eux qu'on retrouve au soir désoeuvrés incertainsDites ces mots ma vie et retenez vos larmes

Il n'y a pas d'amour heureux

Mon bel amour mon cher amour ma déchirureJe te porte en moi comme un oiseau blessé

Et ceux-là sans savoir nous regardent passerRépétant après moi les mots que j'ai tressés

Et qui pour tes grands yeux tout aussitôt moururentIl n'y a pas d'amour heureux

Le temps d'aprendre à vivre il est déjà trop tardQue pleurent dans la nuit nos coeurs à l'unisson

Ce qu'il faut de malheur pour la moindre chansonCe qu'il faut de regrets pour payer un frisson

Ce qu'il faut de sanglots pour un air de guitareIl n'y a pas d'amour heureux

Il n'y a pas d'amour qui ne soit douleur.Il n'y a pas d'amour dont on ne soit meurtri.Il n'y a pas d'amour dont on ne soit flétri.Et pas plus que de toi l'amour de la patrie.Il n'y a pas d'amour qui ne vive de pleurs.

Il n'y a pas d'amour heureux.Mais c'est notre amour à tous les deux.

Used to ramble through the parkShadowboxing in the dark

One of those bells that now and then ringsJust one of those things

It was just one of those nightsJust one of those fabulous flights

A trip to the moon on gossamer wingsJust one of those things

If we'd thought a bit before the end of itWhen we started painting the town

We'd have been aware that our love affairWas too hot not to cool down

So good-bye, dear, and amenHere's hoping we meet now and then

It was great funBut it was just one of those things

LES FEUILLES MORTES/AUTUMN LEAVES (English lyrics by Johnny Mercer/French lyrics by Jacques Prevert

Music by Joseph Kosma]

The falling leaves Drift by the window The autumn leaves

Of red and gold I see your lips

The summer kisses The sun-burned hands

I used to hold Since you went away The days grow long And soon I'll hear Old winter's song

But I miss you most of all my darling When autumn leaves start to fall

C'est une chanson Qui nous resemble Toi qui m'aimais

Et je t'aimais Nous vivions tous Les deux ensemble Toi qui m'aimais Moi qui t'aimais

Mais la vie separe Ceux qui s'aiment Tout doucement

Sans faire du bruit Et la mer efface sur le sable Les pas des amants desunis

Since you went away The days grow long And soon I'll hear Old winter's song

But I miss you most of all my darling When autumn leaves start to fall

Lately . . . I find myself out gazin' at stars,

Hearing guitars, Like someone in love . . .

Sometimes . . . The things I do astound me,

Mostly . . . Whenever you're around me . . .

Lately . . . I seem to walk, as though I had wings,

Bump into things, Like someone in love . . .

Each time I look at you, I'm limp as a glove,

An' feelin' like someone in love . . .

Love for Sale (Cole Porter)When the only sound in the empty street,

Is the heavy tread of the heavy feetThat belong to a lonesome cop

I open shop.When the moon so long has been gazing downOn the wayward ways of this wayward town.

That her smile becomes a smirk,I go to work.Love for sale,

Appetising young love for sale.Love that's fresh and still unspoiled,

Love that's only slightly soiled,Love for sale.Who will buy?

Who would like to sample my supply?Who's prepared to pay the price,

For a trip to paradise?Love for sale

Let the poets pipe of lovein their childish way,

I know every type of loveBetter far than they.

If you want the thrill of love,I've been through the mill of love;

Old love, new loveEvery love but true love

Love for sale.Appetising young love for sale.If you want to buy my wares.

Follow me and climb the stairsLove for sale. Love for sale.

Doch der Haifisch weiß von nichts11. Und er kann sich nicht erinnern

Und man kann nicht an ihn ran,Denn ein Haifisch ist kein Haifisch

Wenn man nicht beweisen kann.

The Man I Love(Gershwin)

Some day he'll come along,The man I love

And he'll be big and strong, The man I love

And when he comes my wayI'll do my best to make him stay.

He'll look at me and smileI'll understand ;

And in a little while,He'll take my hand ;

And though it seems absurd, I know we both won't say a word

Maybe I shall meet him SundayMaybe Monday, maybe not ;

Still I'm sure to meet him one dayMaybe Tuesday will be my good news day

He'll build a little homeJust meant for two,

From which I'll never roam, Who would - would you ?

And so all else aboveI'm waiting for the man I love.

Many Rivers to Cross(Jimmy Cliff, version as sung by Toni Childs)

Many rivers to cross but I can't seem to find my way over.Wandering I am lost, as I travel alone and it's only my pride that keeps me alive.I've been licked, washed up for years, and I merely survive because of my pride.

But my loneliness won't leave me aloneIt's such a drag to be on your own

A woman left and she didn't say bye.So I've got to survive.

Many rivers to cross, but just where to begin, I'm playing for time.Many times I find myself thinking I've committed some dreadful crime.

Mercedes Benz (Janis Joplin)Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,

So Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a color TV ?Dialing For Dollars is trying to find me.I wait for delivery each day until three,

So oh Lord, won’t you buy me a color TV ?

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a night on the town ?I’m counting on you, Lord, please don’t let me down.

Prove that you love me and buy the next round,Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a night on the town ?

Everybody!Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends,Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,

So oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

That’s it!

Flottant sur vos épaules,Vous aviez le beau rôle,

On aurait dit le roi...Vous marchiez en vainqueur

Au bras d'une demoiselleMon Dieu!... Qu'elle était belle...

Miss Otis Regrets (she's unable to lunch today)

(Cole Porter)

Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today, madam,Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today.

She is sorry to be delayed, but last evening down in Lover's Lane she strayed, madam,

Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today.When she woke up and found that her dream of love was gone, madam,

She ran to the man who had led her so far astray,And from under her velvet gown,

She drew a gun and shot her love down, madam,Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today.

When the mob came and got her and dragged from her the jail, madam,They strung her upon the old willow across the way,

And the moment before she died,She lifted up her lovely head and cried, madam......

Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today.Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today

Misty

Look at me, I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree;And I feel like I'm clingin' to a cloud,

I can' t understandI get misty, just holding your hand.

Walk my way, And a thousand violins begin to play,Or it might be the sound of your hello,

That music I hear,I get misty, the moment you're near.

Can't you see that you're leading me on?And it's just what I want you to do,

Don't you notice how hopelessly I'm lostThat's why I'm following you.

On my own, When I wander through this wonderland alone,

Never knowing my right foot from my leftMy hat from my glove

I'm too misty, and too much in love.Too misty,

And too muchIn love.....

Behold the way our fine feathered friend,

His virtue doth paradeThou knowest not, my dim-witted friend

The picture thou hast madeThy vacant brow, and thy tousled hair

Conceal thy good intentThou noble upright truthful sincere,

And slightly dopey gent

You’re my funny valentine,Sweet comic valentine,

You make me smile with my heart.Your looks are laughable, un-photographable,

Yet, you’re my favorite work of art.

Is your figure less than greek? Is your mouth a little weak?

When you open it to speak, are you smart? But, don’t change a hair for me.

Not if you care for me.Stay little valentine, stay!

Each day is valentine’s day

Is your figure less than greek? Is your mouth a little weak?

When you open it to speak, are you smart? But, don’t change a hair for me.

Not if you care for me.Stay little valentine, stay!

Each day is valentine’s day

My heart belongs to DaddyWhile tearing off a game of golfI may make a play for the caddy

But when I do, I don't follow though'Cause my heart belongs to Daddy

If I invite a boy some nightTo dine on my fine finnan haddieI just adore his asking for moreBut my heart belongs to Daddy

Yes my heart belongs to DaddySo I simply couldn't be bad.

Yes, my heart belongs to daddyDa-da Da-da-da Da-da-da--adSo I want to warn you laddie,

Though I think you're perfectly swellThat my heart belongs to Daddy

'Cause my daddy he treats it so well.

MY HEART BELONGS TO DADDY   (Cole Porter) ("Leave It to Me")

I used to fall in love with all those boys who maul refined ladies, But now I tell each young gazelle to go to hell, I mean Hades.

For since I've come to care for such a sweet millionaire.While tearing off a game of golf, I may make a play for the caddy.

But when I do, I don't follow through, cause my heart belongs to daddy. If I invite a boy some night to dine on my fine finnan haddie.

I just adore his asking for more but my heart belongs to daddy. Yes, my heart belongs to daddy, so I simply couldn't be bad!

Yes, my heart belongs to daddy, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-daddy-ad! So I want to warn you, daddy, though I think you're perfectly swell, That my heart belongs to daddy cause my daddy he treats it so well!

He treats it and treats it and then he repeats it, yes, daddy, he treats it so well. Saint Patrick's Day, although I may be seen wearing green with a paddy,

I'm always sharp when playing the harp, cause my heart belongs to daddy. Though other dames at football games may long for a strong undergraddy.

I never dream of making the team, 'cause my heart belongs to daddy. Yes, my heart belongs to daddy, so I simply couldn't be bad!

Yes, my heart belongs to daddy, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-daddy-ad! So, I want to warn you, laddie, though I simply hate to be frank,

That I can't be mean to daddy, cause my da-da-daddy might spank! In matters artistic, he's not modernistic, so da-da-daddy might spank.

New York, New YorkStart spreading the news, I'm leaving today

I want to be a part of it - New York, New YorkThese vagabond shoes, are longing to stray

Right through the very heart of it - New York, New York

I want to wake up in a city, that doesn't sleepAnd find I'm king of the hill - top of the heap

These little town blues, are melting awayI'm gonna make a brand new start of it - in old New York

If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhereIt's up to you - New York, New York

Night and Day

Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tomWhen the jungle shadows fall

Like the tick tick tock of the stately clockAs it stands against the wall

Like the drip drip drip of the raindropsWhen the summer shower is through

So a voice within me keeps repeating you, you, youNight and day, you are the one

Only you beneath the moon AND under the sunWhether near to me, or far

It's no matter darling where you areI think of you

NIGHT AND DAY, DAY AND NIGHT, why is it soThat this longing for you follows wherever I go

In the roaring traffic's boomIn the silence of my lonely room

I think of youNIGHT AND DAY, NIGHT AND DAY

Under the hide of meThere's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me

And ITS torment won't be through'TIL you let me spend my life making love to you

Day and night, night and day

There was a barn dance Saturday night, E-I-E-I-OAnd the fellows came from miles around

Just to see her dosey-doWith a promenade here and a promenade there

At a square dance, boy, this chick was no squareOl' MacDonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O

I used to be a travelling man, E-I-O,Until I hit MacDonald's place

Things were mighty slowWith a little chick here and a little chick there

I didn't have a real chick anywhereOl' MacDonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O

This farmer's daughter knocked me out, E-I-E-I-OI asked MacDonald for her hand

And pop, he hollered "Go!"With a little curve here and a little wiggle there

'Round MidnightIt begins to tell,

'round midnight, midnight.I do pretty well, till after sundown,

Suppertime I'm feelin' sad;But it really gets bad,

'round midnight.

Memories always start 'round midnightHaven't got the heart to stand those memories,

When my heart is still with you,And ol' midnight knows it, too.

When a quarrel we had needs mending,Does it mean that our love is ending.

Darlin' I need you, lately I findYou're out of my heart, And I'm out of my mind.Let our hearts take wings''round midnight, midnight

Let the angels sing,for your returning.

Till our love is safe and sound.And old midnight comes around.

Feelin' sad, really gets bad

Sentimental JourneyGonna take a sentimental journey

Gonna set my heart at easeGonna make a sentimental journey

To renew old memories.Got my bag, I got my reservation,Spent each dime I could afford.Like a child in wild anticipation,Long to hear that "All Aboard".

Seven, that's the time we leave, at seven.I'll be waiting up for heaven

Counting every mile of railroad track that takes me back.Never thought my heart could be so yearny.

Why did I decide to roam?Gonna take a sentimental journey,

Sentimental journey home.
