When it's Summer in Siam And the moon is full of rainbows When it's Summer in Siam And we go through many changes When it's Summer in Siam Then all I really know Is that I truly am In the Summer in Siam
I am Francisco Vasquez Garcia I am welcome to Almeria We have sin gas and con leche We have fiesta and feria We have the song of the chochona We have brandy and half corona And Leonardo and his accordione And calamari and macaroni
Come all you rambling boys of pleasure And ladies of easy leisure We must say Adios! until we see Almeria once again
There is a minstrel, there you see, And he stoppeth one in three He whispers in this one's ear "Will you kindly kill that doll for me" Now he has won chochona in the bingo All the town has watched this crazy gringo As he pulls off the doll's head laughing And miraldo! throws its body in the sea
El vienticinco de agosto Abrio sus ojos Jaime Fearnley Pero el bebe cinquante Gin-campari Y se tendio para cerrarlos Y Costello el rey del America Y suntuosa Cait O Riordan Non rompere mes colliones Los gritos fuera de las casas
I just want to see you When youre all alone I just want to catch you if I can I just want to be there When the morning light explodes On your face it radiates I cant escape I love you till the end
I just want to tell you nothing You dont want to hear All I want is for you to say Why dont you just take me Where Ive never been before I know you want to hear me Catch my breath I love you till the end I love you till the end
I love you till the end I love you till the end
I just want to be there When were caught in the rain I just want to see you laugh not cry I just want to feel you When the night puts on its cloak Im lost for words don't tell me Could All I can say I love you till the end I love you till the end
I love you till the end I love you till the end I love you till the end All I can say I love you till the end I love you till the end
I love you till the end All I can say I love you till the end
How come when I got the ace of hearts Ya always draw the ace of spades How's it when your best friend Brings you lillies on your birthday
Hey how come, hey how come Well I ain't superstitious, but well these things I see How come, how come I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me
How come when your local clergy calls He tells me that you shouldn't wear black What kind of bread are you gonna' bake With that hemlock in your spice rack
Hey how come, hey how come Well I ain't superstitious, but well these things I see How come, how come I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me
The spider's run, the cobwebs gone Did you eat it when the moon was new I drowned your cat, what do you say about that I've even broken up your broom
How come, how come Well I ain't superstitious, but well these things I see How come, how come I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me Well how come, how come Well I ain't superstitious, but well these things I see How come, how come I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me
Oh the time will come up When the winds will stop And the breeze will cease to be breathin' Like the stillness in the wind 'Fore the hurricane begins The hour when the ship comes in
Oh the seas will split And the ship will hit And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking Then the tide will sound And the wind will pound And the morning will be breaking
Oh the fishes will laugh As they swim out of the path And the seagulls they'll be smiling And the rocks on the sand Will proudly stand The hour that the ship comes in
And the words that are used For to get the ship confused Will not be understood as they're spoken For the chains of the sea Will have busted in the night And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean
A song will lift As the mainsail shifts And the boat that drifts on to the shore line And the sun will respect Every face on the deck The hour that the ship comes in
Then the sands will roll Out a carpet of gold For your weary toes to be a touchin' And the ship's wise men Will remind you once again That the whole wide world is watchin'
Oh the foes will rise With the sleep still in their eyes And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're still dreamin' But they'll pinch themselves and squeel And know that it's for real The hour that the ship comes in
Then they'll raise their hands Sayin' we'll meet all your demands But we'll shout from the bow your days are numbered And like Pharaoh's tribe They'll be drownded in the tide And like Goliath they'll be conquered
The dawn shines her light To scare off the night And the sun from his slumber is woken The bells are ringing out As the town crier shouts Words too strong to be spoken
There's a rumble in the ground And the air fills with sound Trumpets in the wind are a' blowing The townsfolk peep Through the curtains of sleep To the sound of the cocks all a' crowin
The winds may blow Come rain, come slow Today's for you and me I gave my heart to you my love You gave your heart to me
The sun wears a smile And the clock winks its dial The clouds in the sky are unfolding The birds on the wing Like angels they sing The heavens are glowing all golden
The crowds all spill out They cheer and they shout Banners and flags are a' waving The flowers all a' bloom Blow kisses to the moon As blossom falls on the paving
The wind may blow Come rain, come snow Today's for you and me I gave my heart to you my love You gave your heart to me
The whole world roars A chorus of applause Strangers from Delhi to Dublin Are swept off their feet As they kiss on the street And the waters like champaigne are bubbling
The wind may blow Come rain, come snow Today's for you and me I gave my heart to you my love You gave your heart to me
Voici une histoire D'un homme cajun Amadie Adouin Etat son nom Avec sa guitare Et avec sa voix Amadie Adouin Etait le roi
Here is the story Of a Cajun man Amadie Adouin Was his name With his guitar And his voice Amadie Adouin Was the king
In a town seperated by railroad tracks When one side's white the other side must be black
La sueur brulait Dans ses yeux Les blancs ont crie N' arrete pas Quand Amadie pouvait plus jouer Il demandait a Celine Son mouchoir
The sweat burnt In his eyes The whites shouted Don't stop When Amadie couldn't Play anymore He asked to Celine His handerchief
Black were the tears Amadie Adouin cried Tears a white handkerchief just could not hide
Les bois d'Arcadia Ils sont morts Au fond de la terre Amadie s'endort Mais si vous voulez Ecouter sa voix Demande aux Ricains De la chercher d'en bas
The forest of Arcadia Is dead Deep under the ground Amadie falls asleep But if you want to listen To his voice Ask the Yanks To look for it from the bottom
They ran right over Amadie's vocal cords Good old boys in a good ol' Model T Ford Amadie took a walk by the railroad track To the other side and he won't be coming back
They ran right over Amadie's vocal cords Those good old boys in a good old Model T Ford Amadie took a walk by the railroad track To the other side and he won't be coming back

The bright lights are calling me The bright lights are calling me When the world is dark and cold And I'm heading down the road The bright lights are calling me
As the world is round, the road is long I've trouble on my mind I'll just keep on moving Until the day comes round The wind a' blowing on my back And my feet a' flying Flying down the road Where the bright lights shine
Monday's in a pigtown Tuesday's in a truck Wednesday's a field of mud And Thursday's out of luck Friday's rain clouds Saturday flies by Sunday comes shining From a blue blue sky
The bright lights are calling me The bright lights are calling me When the world is dark and cold And I'm heading down the road The bright lights are calling me
Some towns are golden Some towns are stained Some towns are shadows Fading in the rain Some towns are rust And some towns they gleam Some towns are mad dogs Some towns are a dream
The bright lights are calling me The bright lights are calling me When the world is dark and cold And I'm heading down the road The bright lights are calling me
Some dreams are hollow Some dreams are cold Some dreams are crazy And some dreams are bold Some dreams are bought And other dreams are sold Some dreams lie waiting At the end of the road
The bright lights are calling me The bright lights are calling me When the world is dark and cold And I'm heading down the road The bright lights are calling me
The night stank of diesel And a stranger came to town A cold wind blowing And the rain pouring down Street lights flicker And the power lines moan The moon beat down On a river of bone Someone put the lights out No one make a sound You won't find a thing Down in Oretown
Foundry spits fire and smoke Air's foul and choking Sky full of sulphur Mountains flat and broken Black fogs and whirlwinds Thunder and rain Open drink madness And purple mad pain The circus is over Exit the clowns Nobody's laughing Down in Oretown
The ship's in the harbour Cargo's been pawned Barrooms spilling sailors All shipwrecked at dawn Smelling of salt and rust Uniforms torn Came looking for flowers Only found thorns Dreaming of mermaids In pearly white gowns tain is sleeping Down in Oretown
There's a madman down on mainstreet Eyes all aflame Laughing in the thunder Of the Number 9 train Selling old postcards in rusty frames A thousand views of Oretown And they all look the same Dressed up in sandals And a barbed wire crown A lot of people loose their minds Down in Oretown
Lock up the lawman Let go the thief Rounding up the grey men Nail them to a tree This town was a palace This town was aglow Then the sky burned orange And the iron river flowed The night stank of diesel A stranger came to town The night folded over Down in Oretown
Tosspint rises early Sprung from a nightmare's claw Thrice crows the dawn cock The mist is on the moor Tosspint cries from croaking gills Thank God I'm not forsaken From the hellish depths of sleep At last I am awaken
Tosspint flushed his kidneys And rained a golden shower Pleased to piss a good pot full He shat upon the hour Tosspint filled his belly With tripe and ox's tongue A sucking pig stuffed with figs Into his guts he flung
Full belly and the dance is merry Where hunger reigns no strength obtains The wheel spins, the gurdy hums Ring the bells and beat the drum
Tosspint drinks lustily And pees against the sun All around the hoary oak The laughing maidens run Tosspint warms his codpiece To the flour adds the yeast In the field by Tanner's Mill He plays to two-backed beast
Twist the spigot, close the hole Stoke the fire and blow the coal The wheel spins, the gurdy hums Ring the bells and beat the drum Full belly and the dance is merry Where hunger reigns no strength obtains The wheel spins, the gurdy hums Ring the bells and beat the drum
Tosspint fell foul of dogma And slipped into schism The trial was quick, the sky grew dark They led him from the prison Tied him to a stake of oak Lit a fire of wood and coke The crowd sang out "His bacon's smoked!" The bells rang out "Tosspint's croaked!"
Tosspint under flaming sky Walks through the fires of Hell Where bestial demons threw the damned Screaming as they fell Into pits of burning coals Tosspint throws up his last bowl And mingled with the soup His soul
4 O'Clock in the morning When the ambulance arrived 4 O'Clock in the morning When the ambulance arrived The blue lights were flashing As they lay my baby down inside
They took her to the hospital In the darkest hour of the night They took her to the hospital In the darkest hour of the night It was silent as the grave As my baby lay beneath the light
They turned on the gas and cut her open She didn't feel no pain They turned on the gas and cut her open She didn't feel no more pain Daylight was breaking And down came the rain
Down came the rain Down came the rain Down came the rain Down came the rain
Sometimes I wonder who's making love to you now Now that it's been so long Yes sometimes I wonder who's making love to you now Now that it's been so long Well I don't know where or when you found out Where that love's been gone
Remember that winter we went walking in the snow Now it's been and gone Yes, I remember the winter we went walking in the snow Snow that's been and gone And right across the country still I've got to go Wherever that love's been gone
But any old way there's a smile on my face There's a smile that I just can't hide Though I'm missing you now like I never knew how I couldn't forget you if I tried
Don't it make you wonder, but I wouldn't worry no more Standing by the side of the road Oh don't it make you wonder, but I wouldn't worry no more Just standing by the side of the road Into the night you just pick up and go You'll see where the love's been gone
But any old way there's a smile on my face Ther's a smile that I just couldn't hide Thoush I'm missing you now like I never knew how I couldn't forget you if I tried I couldn't forget you I couldn't forget you I couldn't forget you if I tried
I couldn't forget you I couldn't forget you I couldn't forget you if I tried
The snakes they can crawl And the cheetahs they can bawl And their ghosts can wait for the hereafter But if you are so proud As to say that's not allowed We will get sick and choke ourselves with laughter
And the girlfriends that you knew To whom you promised to be true We'll have their sisters Hanging from the rafters And every dirty shade will rise rotting from the grave Tomorrow will be just like the day after
And this bitter desert wind Will come ripping through your skin And everything that's calm will turn to madness And all of your fake tears Will come whirling down the years And what was kind and warm will come to sadness
And the sun and the moon Will come begging at your door The stars will turn to rust And drop from the skies And everybody will soon be asking you for more And everybody will be telling lies
And the girlfriends that you knew To whom you promised to be true We'll have their sisters Hanging from the rafters And every dirty shade will rise rotting from the grave Tomorrow will be just like the day after
> I come old friend from Hell tonight Across the rotting sea Nor the nails of the cross Nor the blood of Christ Can bring you help this eve The dead have come to claim a debt from thee They stand outside your door Four score and three Did you keep a watch for the dead man's wind Did you see the woman with the comb in her hand Wailing away on the wall on the strand As you danced to the Turkish song of the damned You remember when the ship went down You left me on the deck The captain's corpse jumped up And threw his arms around my neck For all these years I've had him on my back This debt cannot be paid with all your jack And as I sit and talk to you I see your face go white This shadow hanging over me Is no trick of the light The spectre on my back will soon be free The dead have come to claim a debt from thee
