After You've Gone

After you've gone and left me crying
After you've gone, there's no denying
You'll feel blue, you'll feel sad
You'll miss the dearest pal you've ever had
There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There'll come a time, when you'll regret it
Some day when you'll grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine and you'll want me only
After you've gone, after you've gone away
After Im gone, after we break up
After Im gone, youre gonna wake up
You will find you were blind
To let somebody come and change your mind
After the years weve been together
Thought joy and tears, all kinds of weather
Someday blue and downhearted
Youll long to be with me right back where you started
After Im gone, after Im gone away

Ménilmontant mais oui madame
C'est là que j'ai laissé mon cœur
C'est là que je viens retrouver mon âme
Toute ma flamme
Tout mon bonheur...
Quand je revois ma petite église
Où les mariages allaient gaiement
Quand je revois ma vieille maison grise
Où même la brise
Parle d'antan
Elles me racontent
Comme autrefois
De jolis contes
Beaux jours passés je vous revois
Un rendez-vous
Une musique
Des yeux rêveurs tout un roman
Tout un roman d'amour poétique et pathétique
Ménilmontant !
Quand midi sonne
La vie s'éveille à nouveau
Tout résonne
De mille échos
La midinette fait sa dînette au bistro
La pipelette
Lit ses journaux
Voici la grille verte
Voici la porte ouverte
Qui grince un peu pour dire "Bonjour bonjour
Alors te v'là de retour ?"
Ménilmontant mais oui madame
C'est là que j'ai laissé mon cœur
C'est là que je viens retrouver mon âme
Toute ma flamme
Tout mon bonheur...
Quand je revois ma petite gare
Où chaque train passait joyeux
J'entends encor dans le tintamarre
Des mots bizarres
Des mots d'adieux
Je suis pas poète
Mais je suis ému,
Et dans ma tête
Y a des souvenirs jamais perdus
Un soir d'hiver
Une musique
Des yeux très doux les tiens maman
Quel beau roman d'amour poétique
Et pathétique
Ménilmontant !

Avalon

I left my love in Avalon
Beside the bay.
I left my love in Avalon
And I sailed away.
I dream of him in Avalon
From dusk till dawn.
So I think I'll travel on
To Avalon.

The Chicken Medley
04:45
|
|||
Well, I went on the mountain
And I gave my horn a blow
Thought I heard some purty gal say
"Yonder come my beau"
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
Crow black chicken and fly away
Crow black chicken and-a
I like chicken pie
Well, the hardest work that ever I done
Is plowin' a field of rye
The easiest work that ever I done
Was eatin' chicken pie
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
Crow black chicken and fly away
Crow black chicken and-a
I like chicken pie
Oh, chicken, chicken, you can't roost too high for me.
Oh, chicken, chicken, come on out of that tree.
Oh, chicken, chicken, chicken, you can't roost too high for me.
C is the way it begins.
H, the next letter then,
I am the third.
C, what a seasonly bird.
K is to fill him in.
E, I'm near the end.
C-H-I-C-K-E-N,
That's the way you spell chicken.
Chicken crow for midnight
And chicken crow for a day
Along come an owl, Lord, have mercy
And stole my chicken away
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
Crow black chicken and fly away
Crow black chicken and-a
I like chicken pie

When it's roundup time in Texas
And the bloom is on the sage
Then I long to be in Texas
Back a-ridin' on the range
Just to smell the bacon fryin'
When it's sizzlin' in the pan
Hear the breakfast horn in the early morn
Drinkin' coffee from a can.
Just a-ridin', rockin', ropin'
Poundin' leather all day long
Just a-swayin', sweatin', swearin'
Listen to a cowhand's song
How it beckons, and I reckon
I would work for any wage
To be free again, just to be again
Where the bloom is on sage.
When it's roundup time in Texas
And the bloom is on the sage
Then I long to be in Texas
Back a-ridin' on the range
Where the purple hills are callin'
Callin' to me from afar
To come back again to the Rio Grande
And the lonely Texas star.
How I'm longin' to be livin'
Where the prairie flowers grow
I'd be willin' to start walkin'
To the land that I love so
How it beckons, and I reckon
I would work for any wage
To be free again, just to be again.
Where the bloom is on the sage.

All Of Me
05:25
|

All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
I'm no good without you
Take my lips
I want to lose them
Take my arms
I'll never use them
Your goodbye
Left me with eyes that cry
How can I
Go along without you
You took the part
That once was my heart
So why not
Take all of me
All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
I'm no good without you
Take my lips
I want to lose them
Take my arms
I'll never use them
Your goodbye
Left me with eyes that cry
How can I
Go along without you
You took the part
That once was my heart
So why not
Take all of me

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
But my legs ain't bowed and my cheeks ain't tan
I'm a cowboy who never saw a cow
Never roped a steer cause I don't know how
Sure ain't a fixing to start in now
Yippie yi yo kayah
I'm an old cowhand and I come down from the Rio Grande
And I learned to ride, ride, ride 'fore I learned to stand
I'm a riding fool who is up to date
I know every trail in the Lone Star State
Cause I ride the range in a Ford V-8
Yippie yi yo kayah
We're old cowhands from the Rio Grande
And we come to town just to hear the band
We know all the songs that the cowboys know
'Bout the big corral where the doggies go
We learned them all on the radio
Yippie yi yo kayah
I'm an old cowhand
Down from the Rio Grande
Oh where the west is wild all around the borderland
Where the buffalo roam around the zoo
and the Injuns run up a rug or two
and the old Bar X is just a barbecue, yeah
Yippie yi yo kayah
I'm a pioneer who began from scratch
I don't bat an eye in a shootin' match.
They don't call me Elmer, they call me Satch.
Yippie yi yo kayah
Yippie yi yo kayah
Yippie yi yo kayah, oh!

If You'se A Viper
04:35
|

Well I dreamed about a reefer five feet long.
Mighty Intense, but not too strong.
You'll be high but not for long
If you're a viper.
I'm the queen of everything.
I've got's to be high before I can swing.
Light a tea and let it be
If you're a viper.
When your throat gets dry you know you're high
Everything is dandy
Truck on down to the candy store
Bust your konk on peppermint candy
Then you know that you're body's spent.
You don't care if you don't pay rent.
Sky is high and so am I
If you're a viper.

Les Gadjo Cowboys Birmingham, UK
Les Gadgo Cowboys formed informally at the beginning of 2014, as two highly competent musicians, Sophia Johnson & Gary Williams, found they had a mutual love of playing guitar together. It wasn't long before they were playing regular gigs together, and then writing their own material in the style they had developed. Andante In The Park, their first album, was recorded in December 2014. ... more
