- 12 - Orenji no Taiyou
Yuugure ni kimi to mita orenji no taiyou
Nakisou na kao o shite eien no sayounara
Yuugure ni kimi to mita orenji no taiyou
Nakisou na kao o shite eien no sayounara
Kirameku nami to tawamureteita mujaki na kimi no sono yokogao
Hadashi de sunahama o kakenukeru kimi ga itoshii
- Angola Bound
Too many mornin' gotta wake up soon
Oh Lord, and eat my breakfast by the light of 'de moon
Oh Lord, by the light of 'de moon
If you see my Momma, tell her this for me
Oh I've got a mighty long time, Lord knows I'll never go free
Oh Lord, I'll never be free
- Don't Go Please Stay
Don't go, please stay
Don't go, please stay
If I got on my knees and pleaded with you
Not to go, but to stay in my heart
Would you walk out the door
Like you did once before
But this time be different and please stay
- Everybody Plays The Fool
Ok, so your heart is broken
Youre sitting around mopin, mopin, mopin, cryin, cryin
You say youre even thinking about dying
Well, before you do anything rash, baby, listen to this
Everybody plays the fool, sometime
Theres no exception to the rule, listen baby
It may be factual, it may be cruel, I aint lying
- Hercules
All you fear, is fear its self
Check our your own back yard before you check out someone else
Railroad track, in my neighbourhood
Ain’t no trains around that part just ain’t no good
Wanna know, what’s going down,
When the pimp on the corner looks like the sharpest cat in town
- House On A Hill
House on a Hill (Aaron Neville)
Tired of livin in a room without curtains
Tired of sleepin on the floor without a bed
Said if I can't have the good things in life
You know I might as well be dead
I want a house on a hill
- How Could I Help But Love You
When you hold me close, honey, you're the most, baby, you set my soul on fire
Ever since I met you, honey I had to get you, you have been my one desire
How could I help but love you with a love so true, you send cold chills down my spine
If we would ever part, it wouldn't be your fault, yeah, it would be all mine
If you would ever leave me, honey, it sure would grieve me, baby, it would break my heart
But I won't let that worry me, this love will always be, it was meant right from the start
- I Bid You Goodnight
Lay down my dear Brother, lay down and take your rest
I want to lay your head upon your Savior's breast
I love you, but Jesus loves you best
I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Lay down my dear Brother, lay down and take your rest
I want to lay your head upon your Savior's breast
- I don't know much But I Know I Love You
Look at this face
I know the years are showing
Look at this life
I still don't know where it's going
I don't know much
But I know I love you
And that may be all I need to know
- In the still of the night
In the still of the night
As I gaze out of my window
At the moon in its flight
My thoughts all stray, stray to you
In the still of the night
While the world is in slumber
Oh, the times without number
- La Vie Dansante
They can come take it all away
Break you heart by the light of day
Drown your love in a distant bay so lonely
See the ships heading for the rocks
See the time melting over the clocks
There's a light shadows all
The rocks that saves me
- Like a bird on a wire
Like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a fish on a hook,
like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
If I, if I have been unkind,
I hope that you can just let it go by.
- Louisiana 1927
What has happened down here,
Is the winds have changed
Clouds roll in from the north
And it started to rain
It rained real hard, and
It rained for a real long time
Six feet of water
In the streets of Evangeline
- Nature Boy
There was a boy, a very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far, over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye, but very wise was he
And then one day, a magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things, fools and kings
This he said to me
- Somewhere Somebody
Must be a million girls in this great big city
I know that one of them is just right for me
I've looked uptown, downtown, all around searchin'
I know she's out there waiting for me
Somewhere, somebody, lookin', longin'
Somewhere, somebody, waitin' for me
Somewhere, somebody, searchin', prayin'
- Such A Night
Twas the night before Christmas all white with snow
I was lying back waiting for my baby to show
I was searching my mind for the right things to say
'cause she had to leave the very next day
When out on the driveway I heard such a clatter
I dimmed all the lights and put on Clyde Mcphatter
And she came to the doorway and she gave me a kiss
And the rest of the night went something like this
- Sweet Amelia
Oh Amelia, oh Amelia
A southern woman, a southern woman
Never had a chance to say goodbye
I met her back in sixty-three,
She was such a mystery
She was there on Barron Street,
Down in New Orleans
- Tears On My Pillow
You don't remember me, but I remember you
It was not so long ago, you broke my heart in two
Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart, caused by you, you
If we could start anew, I wouldn't hesitate
I'd gladly take you back, and tempt the hand of fate
Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart, caused by you,
- Tell It Like It Is
If you want something to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
Baby my time is too expensive
And I'm not a little boy
If you are serious
Don't play with my heart
It makes me furious
- The Star Carol
Long years ago, on a deep winter night.
High in the heavens, a star shone bright.
While in the manger, a wee baby lay.
Sweetly asleep, on a bed of hay.
Jesus our lord, was that baby so small.
Lay down to sleep, in a humble stall.
Then came the star, and it stood over head.
- Warm Your Heart
Well, we’re all searching for peace of mind
Love in this world is hard to find
Come close to me, hold my hand
And warm your heart
Only a true love can satisfy
Open your arms and close your eyes
Walk with me, hold my hand
- Why Worry
There's no need for you to worry about anything
Who can say what the future gonna bring
But if you worry about tomorrow (tomorrow)
It will only bring you sorrow
Go out and have a good time (forget about the cloudy weather)
For this world is so fine (can't stop the matter)
Go out and have a good time
- You Never Can Tell
It was a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well
You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle
And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell,
"see'est la vie", say the old folks, it go to show you never can tell
They furnished off an apartment with a two room Roebuck sale
The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and ginger ale,
But when Pierre found work, the little money comin' worked out well
