"Many Rivers To Cross"

"Many Rivers To Cross"


Many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost
As I travel along white cliffs of Dover

Many rivers to cross
And it's only my will that keeps me alive
I've been licked, washed up for years
And I merely survive because of my pride

And this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's such a drag to be on your own
My baby left me and he didn't say why
Well I guess I'll have to try

Many rivers to cross
But just where to begin
I'm playing for time
There have been times I find myself thinking of committing
Some dreadful crime

I've got many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost
As I travel along white cliffs of Dover

"Marie Mouri"

"Marie Mouri"


Chere 'tit zozo quoi t'apre fe?
T'apre sauter, t'apre chanter
To pas connais n'a p'us Marie
Marie mouri, Marie mouri

'Tit z-herbe tout vert, 'tit z-herbe tout moux
Faut p'us to fais un lit pou nous
To pas connais n'a p'us Marie
Marie mouri, Marie mouri

Quand jou vini n'a p'u soleil
Quand nuit vini n'a pas sommeil
Quand monde content mo p'us ca ri
Marie mouri, Marie mouri

Dear little bird, what are you doing>
You are jumping, you are singing
Didn't you know Marie is no longer here
Marie is dead, Marie is dead

Little green grass, little soft grass
You no longer need to make a bed for us
Didn't you know Marie is no longer here
Marie is dead, Marie is dead

When the day comes the sun is no longer there
When night comes there is no sleep for me
When people are happy I can no longer laugh
Marie is dead, Marie is dead

"Maybe I'm Right"

"Maybe I'm Right"


Maybe he's right
Maybe I'm wrong
Maybe what I'm saying is the way it should be
Nobody knows when the truth goes by
But everyone tells me that he's happy

Maybe he's gone and found some love
I want to see it for myself
Everyone says just to let him alone
But I can't even sleep no more it worries me so

Why
Why

Maybe I'm right
Maybe he's wrong
And maybe what he's saying is the way it should be
Somebody tried to explain it to me
But they couldn't tell me if he's happy
And I just want to know if he's still happy

"Mean To Me"

"Mean To Me"


Sweetheart I love you
Think the world of you
But I'm afraid you don't care for me
You never show it
Don't let me know it
Everyone says I'm a fool to be
Pining the whole day through
Why do you act like you do

You're mean to me
Why must you be mean to me
Gee honey it seems to me
You love to see me crying

I don't know why I stay home
Each night when you say you'll phone
You don't and I'm left alone
Singing the blues and sighing

You treat me coldly each day of the year
You always scold me whenever somebody is near dear

It must be great fun to be mean to me
You shouldn't for can't you see
What you mean to me

You treat me coldly each day of the year
You always scold me whenever somebody is near dear

It must be great fun to be mean to me
You shouldn't for can't you see
What you mean to me

"Mental Revenge"

"Mental Revenge"


Well I hope that the friend that you've thrown yourself on
Gets drunk and loses her job
And every road that you travel on
Is dusty rocky and hard

I couldn't make you love me
You only made me blue
So all in all if the curtain should fall
Then I hope that it falls on you

And I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge
I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge

Well I hope that the train from Caribou, Maine
Runs over your new love affair
You'll walk the floor from dawn to dawn
And you'll tear out your peroxide hair

I never was your woman
Cause you were never true
So all in all if the curtain should fall
Then I hope that it falls on you

And I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge
I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge
I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge
I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge

"Mentira Salome"

"Mentira Salome"


Salome no esta llorando
Los martirios de tus penas
Es mentira
Nunca ha sido mujer buena
Con humano corazon
Mujer falaz
Impostora de caricias
Tu beso es virus
Que al alma envenena
Mueve tus ansias
Un corazon de hiena
Con las maldades
Que encierra la codicia

Muher falaz
Impostora de caricias
Tu beso es virus
Que el alma envenena
Mueve tus ansias
Un corazon de hiena
Con las maldades
Que encierra la codicia

Mentira
Salome no esta llorando
Mentira
La mentira de tus penas
Mentira
Nunca ha sido mujer buena
Mentira
Con humano corazon
Mentira
Impostora de caricias
Mentira
Ay Salome
Salo salome
Salome

[Lie Salome]

Salome
You're not crying because you have been martyred by sorrow
It's a lie
You've never been a good woman
You don't have a human heart

Deceitful woman
Impostor of caresses
Your kiss is a virus
That poisons the soul
Your ardor is moved by
The heart of a hyena
Wicked
Full of greed

Lie
Salome is not crying
Lie
The suffering from your sorrows
Lie
Never have you been a good woman
Lie
With a human heart
Lie
Impostor of caresses
Lie
Oh, Salome
Salome
Salome

"Mi Ranchito"

"Mi Ranchito"


Alla al pie de la montana
Donde temprano se oculta el sol
Quedo mi ranchito triste
Y abandonada ya mi labor

Ahi me pase los anos
Ahi encontre mi primer amor
Y fueron los desenganos
Los que mataron a mi ilusion

Ay... Corazon que te vas
Para nunca volver... No me digas adios
Vuelve a alegrar con tu amor
El ranchito que fue
De mi vida ilusion

Mal haya los ojos negros
Que me embrujaron con su mirar
Si nunca me hubieran visto
No fueran causa de mi penar

[My Little Ranch]

Far away
At the foot of the mountain
Where the sun hides early
My sad little ranch is still there
My work abandoned

There, I passed the years
There, I found my first love
There, were the betrayals
The ones that killed my illusions

Oh heart
You left me
Don't tell me goodbye
Come back
To cheer up the little ranch
That was once my whole life's dream

Wicked one
Your black eyes bewitched me with their look
If I'd never seen them
They wouldn't have caused me such pain

"Miss Otis Regrets"

"Miss Otis Regrets"


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 at 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 had 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 lover down.
Madam, Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

When the mob came and got her
and dragged her from the jail, madam,
They strung her up
on 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.

"Mohammed's Radio"

"Mohammed's Radio"


Everybody's restless
And they got no place to go
Someone's always trying to tell them
Something they already know
So their anger and resentment flow

Don't it make you want to rock and roll
All night long
Mohammed's radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio
Mohammed's radio

You know the sheriff's got his problems too
And he will surely take them out on me and you
In walks the village idiot and her face is all aglow
Because she's been up all night listening to
Mohammed's radio

Don't it make you want to rock and roll
All night long
Mohammed's radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio
Mohammed's radio

Everybody's desperate
Trying to make ends meet
Work all day still can't pay
The price of gasoline and meat
Alas their lives are incomplete

Don't it make you want to rock and roll
All night long
Mohammed's radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio
Mohammed's radio

You've been up all night just listening for his drum
Hoping that the righteous might just might just might just might just come
I heard the general whispering to his aide de camp
Be watchful for Mohammed's lamp

Don't it make you want to rock and roll
All night long
Mohammed's radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio
Mohammed's radio

Mohammed's radio

"Morning Blues"

"Morning Blues"


Well I woke up early with those morning blues
Had an aching head that I wished I could lose
And I looked in the mirror, nearly died of fright
Those morning blues, ten times worse than last night

I got the morning blues
Hurt so bad
Honey come and love me
They're the worst I ever had

Well, a nickel's worth of grease
And a dime's worth of lard
I would buy more but the times is too hard
And I don't see why I have to work so hard
I can live off the chickens in my neighbor's yard

I got the morning blues
Hurt so bad
Honey come and love me
They're the worst I ever had

Well I've been in the army and I've been in love
I used to fly high like a turtle dove
And I've had these blues for just the longest time
It's just some boy on this poor girl's mind

I got the morning blues
Hurt so bad
Honey come and love me
They're the worst I ever had

I got the morning blues
Hurt so bad
Honey come and love me
They're the worst I ever had
