GO DOWN, MOSES (Let my people go)

(Traditional American Negro spiritual)

When Israel was in Egypt's land:

"Lets my people go!"

Oppressed so hard they could not stand:

"Lets my people go!"

"Go down, Moses

  way down in Egypt’s land

  tell old pharaoh to let my people go!"

Thus, gave the Lord, in a Moses hand:

"Lets my people go!"

The rod so wonders He could grant:

"Lets my people go!"

"Go down, Moses

  way down in Egypt’s land

  tell old pharaoh to lets my people go!"

"Thus, save the Lord!", boldly Moses said:

"Let my people go!" (Let my people go! Let my people go!)

"If not, I’ll smite your firstborn’s dead!

 Let my people go!" (Let my people go! Let my people go!)

"Go down, Moses

  way down in Egypt’s land

  tell old pharaoh to let my people go!"

Why don’t you:

"Go down, Moses

  way down in Egypt’s land

  tell old pharaoh to lets my people go!"

(Go down, Moses

 let my people go! Let my people go!

 Go down, Moses

 let my people go! Let my people go!

 Way down in Egypt’s land

 go down with your rod in your hand

 let my people go!) Let my people go!

(Go down, Moses

 let my people go! Let my people go!

 Go down, Moses

 let my people go! Let my people go!

 Way down in Egypt’s land

 go down with your rod in your hand

 let my people go!) Let my people go!

(Go down, Moses

 let my people go! Let my people go!

 Go down, Moses

 let my people go! Let my people go!

 Way down in Egypt’s land

 go down with your rod in your hand

 let my people go!) Let my people go!

(Go down, Moses

 let my people go! Let my people go!

 Go down, Moses

 let my people go! Let my people go!

 Way down in Egypt’s land

 go down with your rod in your hand

 let my people go...).

GOODNIGHT MY LOVE

(Motola - Marascalco)

Goodnight, my love (Wah-ooh!)

Pleasant dreams and sleep tight, my love

may tomorrow be sunny and bright

and bring you closer to me

Before you go (Wah-ooh!)

There's just one thing I’d like to know (Wah-ooh!)

If your love is still warm for me

or has it gone cold?

If you should awake in the still of the night

please have no fears for I’ll be there

darling, you know I care

please give your love to me, dear, only

Goodnight, my love (Wah-ooh!)

Pleasant dreams and sleep, sleep tight my love (Wah-ooh!)

Make tomorrow be sunny and bright

and bring you closer to me

Goodnight, my love

pleasant dreams and sleep tight, my love

make tomorrow be sunny and bright

and bring you closer to me (Wah-ooh, wah-ooh!)

Goodnight, my love (Wah-ooh, wah-ooh!)

Goodnight, my love (Wah-ooh, wah-ooh!)

Goodnight, my love (Wah-ooh, wah-ooh!)

Sleep tight, my love (Wah-ooh, wah-ooh!)

Goodnight, my love…

GOTA D'ÁGUA
(Chico Buarque - Paulo Pontes)

Já lhe dei meu corpo
Minha alegria
Já estanquei meu sangue
Quando fervia

Olha a voz que me resta
Olha a veia que salta
Olha a gota que falta
Pro desfecho da festa
Por favor

Deixa em paz meu coração
Que ele é um pote até aqui de mágoa
E qualquer desatenção, faça não
Pode ser a gota d'água

Deixa em paz meu coração
Que ele é um pote até aqui de mágoa
E qualquer desatenção, faça não
Pode ser a gota d'água

Já lhe dei meu corpo
Minha alegria
Já estanquei meu sangue
Quando fervia

Olha a voz que me resta
Olha a veia que salta
Olha a gota que falta
Pro desfecho da festa
Por favor

Deixa em paz meu coração
Que ele é um pote até aqui de mágoa
E qualquer desatenção, faça não
Pode ser a gota d'água
Pode ser a gota d'água
Pode ser a gota d'água!

GRANADA

(Agustín Lara)

Granada
Tierra soñada por mí
Mi cantar se vuelve gitano cuando es para ti
Mi cantar hecho de fantasía
Mi cantar flor de melancolía
Que yo te vengo a dar

Granada
Tierra ensangrentada
En tardes de toros
Mujer que conserva el embrujo
De los ojos moros
De sueño rebelde y gitana
Cubierta de flores
Y beso tu boca de grana
Jugosa manzana
Que me habla de amores

Granada
Manola cantada en coplas preciosas
No tengo otra cosa que darte
Que un ramo de rosas
De rosas de suave fragancia
Que le dieran marco a la Virgen Morena

Granada
Tu tierra está llena
De lindas mujeres
De sangre y de sol!

(instrumental break)

De rosas de suave fragancia
Que le dieran marco a la Virgen Morena

Granada
Tu tierra está llena
De lindas mujeres
De sangre y de sol!
