Daddy

He smelt the briny ocean
When he was seventeen
Just said goodbye, cause sailors never cry
When the life ashore became no more
Than just a point of dad, he tried to realize
The words the old man said:

Son, you’ll never live in Clover
But the last word’s up to you
If you really thought it over
Do what you must do
Daddy, I don’t know if I’m wrong
Dad, but it’s there where I belong
Daddy, once I’ll be back to see
If at home it’s really better
Like you said to me

He sailed across the seven seas
From England to Japan
He saw all the places in the world
But somewhere in his heart
There is a start of yearning
For the land he left behind, that he adored

Son, you’ll never live in Clover
But the last word’s up to you
If you really thought it over
Do what you must do

Daddy I know that I was wrong
Dad I’m coming back where I belong
Daddy, those words you used to say:
That at home it’s really better
– feel it every day

Dear John

Dear John, I liked to turn you on
Dear John, it started just for fun
Dear John
 you were just one of many other boys I knew

Dear John, too bad I’ve never seen
Dear John, the difference between dear John
The times that you were near
Or just somebody else

John, since you walked out on me
I couldn’t find a way
To be myself, to sleep at night
To fill my days i know it’s silly
But I miss you more each day i even pray
Dear John, I don’t know what to do
Dear John, it’s hard what I’ve been through
Dear John, i know you must have felt
The same I’m feeling now

John, I wrote this letter just to
Tell you I’ve been wrong
I’ve tried so many times before
I could send it along
Believe me, ev’ry word’s another lonely night
But that’s allright

Dear John, I loved to turn you on
Dear John, it started just for fun
Dear John, but if you leave me
Please believe me I can’t go on
That’s far away from fun, John

Delaney

When I was a boy about sixteen years old
I met a hip girl who said she was soul
But was a sly one from some other town

So I took her out there
But I just couldn’t share
The kind of high class she was talking
She wanted to be a groupie hey, hey
I’m going away to Delaney come on with me
There’s a place in my car
You can ride just as far
You won’t see another sight

Hey, hey i’m on my way to Delaney
Come along with me
You’re gonna stay here no more
I’m gonna be there for some time

The silence told her
We’re a rock and roll truck
Keep a lotta track
An old guitar hanging down

She said sorry friend i got nothing to lose
But when I see your guitar i know I choose
And she sang the blues
Rocking down the valley

Hey, hey i’m going away to Delaney
Come along with me there’s a place in my car
You can ride just as far
You won’t see another sight hey, hey
I’m on my way to Delaney come along with me
You’re gonna stay here no more
I’m gonna be there for some time

Hey, hey i’m going away to Delaney
Come along with me there’s a place in my car
You can ride just as far
You won’t see another sight

Hey, hey i’m on my way to Delaney
Come along with me
You’re gonna stay here no more
I’m gonna be there for some time
I’m gonna stay here no more
I’m gonna be there for some time
I’m gonna stay here no more
I’m gonna be there for some time

Do It

Do it
In the morning
Do it
At night
Do it
Whenever you want (do it)
Come on baby, hold me tight

Do it
In the barnyard
Baby, you can do it in the roof
Do it
Whenever you want (do it)
But I want you to do it soon

Touch me
With your fingertips
Play around with my lips
Hold me
Ooh, I’m in the mood
This is really feeling good
(This is really feeling, feeling good)

Do it
When I’m lazy
Do it
When I’m sad
Do it
I want you to (do it)
Cause this feeling will drive me mad

Who cares
If it’s cold outside
When your lips are warm in me
Who knows
What it’s really like
This everlasting ecstasy
(Ever everlasting ecstasy)

You gotta do it
(Love love, do it, do it, love love, do it)
Baby, I want you to
(Love love, do it, do it, love love, do it)
You gotta do it
(Love love, do it, do it, love love, do it)
I wanna come over you
(Love love, do it, do it, love love, do it)
Come on, come on, come on, come on, do it
(Love love, do it, do it, love love, do it)

Doin’ La Bamba

In a Mexican village a heavy week’s workin’ is done
All the boys and girls comin’ out in the streets havin’ fun
Doin’ La Bamba
Doin’ La Bamba
Doin’ La Bamba
They’re doin’ La Bamba, come on
Tomorrow’s so far away
Let’s dance till the morning sun

All our troubles and sorrow can wait till
Tomorrow’s back again
Drink tequila and wine
Find a friend now the evening is began

Doin’ La Bamba
They’re doin’ La Bamba, come on
Tomorrow’s so far away
Let’s dance till the morning sun

Doin’ La Bamba
They’re doin’ La Bamba, come on
Tomorrow’s so far away
Let’s dance till the morning sun

Bamba
Doin’ La Bamba
Forget what you are and the music
Takes you away
So come on and dance with me

Bamba
Doin’ La Bamba
Under the moon and the stars
Lovers must be
So come on and dance with me

In the Mexican village the moon says hello to the sun
Will two lovers discover another week’s workin’ begun
Doin’ La Bamba
They’re doin’ La bamba, come on
Tomorrow’s so far away
Dancing for six days on

Doin’La Bamba
They’re doin’ La Bamba, come on
Tomorrow’s so far away
Dancing for six days on

Bamba
Doin’La Bamba
Forget what you are and the music
Takes you away
So come on and dance with me

Doin’ La Bamba
Under the moon and the stars
Lovers must be

Bamba
Doin’ La Bamba
Under the moon and the stars

Don’t Love Him

Lovin’ him ain’t easy to bear
When the love’s so hard to find
Somebody else took him away
Should I just pretend I don’t care

Should I tell him I don’t mind
Nevertheless I tried
Now he comes, goes, meets
And I’m jealous from my head to my feet

Uuh, don’t love him
Don’t look into his eyes cos you’r offering
So many heartaches that’ll toughen, baby
Don’t love him, oh no uuh, don’t kiss him
Don’t ever touch the lips I am missin’
It’s only my egoism, baby
Don’t kiss him, oh no uuh, don’t

Will he give you diamonds and pearls
Show the world he loves you so
What can I do? What can I say
Anyway he likes you girl

Maybe he will let you go
Just like the way he did
‘Cos he gives and takes and cheats
And I’m jealous from my head to my feet

Don’t Play Casanova

Tell me the story of the day you went fishing
And you came back in the evening
With a fish that was fat as a pig

What I said, as a horse that was bigger
Than the biggest cow that I ever saw

Oh, you tell it all again
You won’t hear a word all day
But please don’t tell me ‘bout the girls
‘Cause I am the one your’re having now
And that’s how it’s gonna stay
Don’t play Casanova
‘Cause I’m sick about adventures
That you’ve had with other girls before me

Don’t play Casanova shut up, you big lover
‘Cause in my arms you’re just a baby

Make the world believe that ev’ry
Day as you stand up
You take a cold shower and
You drink in an hour
25 glasses of whisky or more
And then walk straight to the door

Dream Lover

You keep searching for the moon on the hazy night
As I want you to want me
And you never say a word ‘bout tender life
As I want you to want me

Did you ever feel a girl beside of you
Did you ever make a move in spite of you
If you want to know what tenderness can be
You’ve got to care about me

Dream lover, sweet dream lover I’m loving you
Please stay beside of you
Cause I’ve got nothing to hide from you

Dream lover, sweet dream lover
Hear my heartache melody
Daddy daddy daddy daddy
Share your dreams with me

If you find a letter posted yesterday
You won’t know where I’m staying
I decided just to hide my heartache away
Till the moment your saying

I’m the one you want to dream your dreams about
I cried it out this morning
You can’t throw our love away like you do
Somebody cares about you (dream lover)
Somebody cares about you (dream lover)
Somebody cares about you

Dream lover, sweet dream lover, I’m loving you
Please stay beside of you
Cause I’ve got nothing to hide from you

Dream lover, sweet dream lover
Hear my heartache melody
Dady dady dady dady
Share your dreams with me

Ein Altes Lied

Tag und Nacht zieht nun dahin,
ohne jeden Sinn,
denn was ich mir so wünschte,
war nicht da.
Aber uns’re Melodie
war immer da und sie
erzählte mir, dein Glück ist noch ganz nah.

Ein altes Lied,
es kommt zu mir aus der Ferne,
wann immer du aus Liebe dort an mich denkst.
Du weißt, ich wäre so gerne
weil ich fühle, daß du es zu mir lenkst.
Das alte Lied
ist die einzige Brücke,
der letzte schmale Weg zwischen dir und mir.
Komm, bitte reich mir die Hand,
Du willst mich doch auch wieder seh’n,
Laß uns den Weg in die Zukunft gemeinsam geh’n.

Dreh’ die Zeit sie dann zurück,
hüte mir das alte Glück,
denn wir lassen es nie wieder untergeh’n.
Uns’re Liebesmelodie
ist immer da und sie
wird helfen, wenn wir uns nicht gut versteh’n.

Ein altes Lied, (unser altes Lied, es kommt zu mir)
es kommt zu mir aus der Ferne, (aus der Ferne)
wann immer Du aus Liebe dort an mich denkst.
So wie immer höre ich es
allzugerne
weil ich fühle, daß Du es zu mir lenkst.
Das alte Lied
ist die einzige Brücke,
der letzte schmale Weg zwischen Dir und mir.
Komm, bitte reich mir die Hand,
du willst mich doch auch wieder seh’n,
laß uns den Weg in die Zukunt gemeinsam geh’n.
Komm, laß uns den Weg in die Zukunt gemeinsam geh’n.
laß uns den Weg in die Zukunt gemeinsam geh’n!
