1.Half A Chance
Written：Carly Simon／Jacob Brackman
Singer：Carly Simon／Linda Ronstadt
You said we'd light the firmament
You said our love was permanent
You said we'd stick through thick and thin
Through up and down, through lose and win
But comes the first sign of stormy weather
You're packin' your bags in the trance
But you gotta give
Half a chance
Half a chance
Half a chance
To our romance
you can't pretend it's Camelot
Then start to run when things get hot
When love explodes there's always heat
There's always bitter with the sweet
There's always times when your legs feel broken
But you still don't drop out of the dance
You gotta give
Half a chance
Half a chance
Half a chance
To our romance
2.It Keeps You Runnin'
Written：Mike Mcdonald
Vocal：Carly Simon／The Doobie Brothers
Where you gonna go
Where are you gonna hide？
You go on leaving out your heart
And all it's saying deep inside
I can feel your love heart beat
You got me all wrong
You don't have to worry
You just been lonely too long
I know what it means to hide your heart
From long ago -
It keeps you runnin'
It keeps you runnin'...
I know how you feel
You know I been there
But what you've been keeping to yourself
Well you know it just ain't fair
Are you gonna worry
For the rest of your life
Why are you in such a hurry
To be lonely one more night？
I know what it means to hide your heart
From a long time ago -
3.Fairweather Father
Written：Carly Simon
Vocal：Carly Simon／James Taylor／Jackson Browne
Fairweather father
Fairweather father
Doesn't like to hear the baby cry
Doesn't like to about the aches and pains
Of the day gone by
Of the day gone by
But the mother advertised as a bargain wife
She'd make things easy for the rest of his life
And to make herself more appealing
She'd think only of him and forget her own feelings
Fairweather father
Fairweather father
Wants his wife to be the truckdriver
Wants his wife to be the gardener
And still look like a Hollywood Starlet
And still look like a Hollywood Starlet
So the mother gets mad and she leaves town
That brings the father and the baby down
She wants the father to find her
Drinkin' orange pop in the seedy Greek diner
Fairweather father
Fairweather father
Gets her back and gets up in the night
Loves her so much and holds the baby tight
Ain't that enough to make you cry
Ain't that enough to make you cry
Fairweather father
Fairweather father
Doesn't like to hear the baby cry
Doesn't like to know about the aches and pains
Of the day gone by
Of the day gone by
4.Cow Town
Lyrics：Carly Simon
Music：Carly Simon
Donald Swan, he was a millionaire
From a Texas oil family
But he still worked hard and believed in God
He was a man of integrity
He went to France on business
Met a woman there named Simone
She saw love in the eyes of the American guy
And she didn't like to be alone
Now it's a cow town
It's a cow town
For Simone Swann
Living on the Buffalo Bayou
She packed up all her perfume
For the gusty pioneer
On a carefree note he said, 'Forget your coat
There's a chill about every ten years'
So they flew hand in hand to Houston
Home of Exxon, Gulf and Shell
He said we have an income bigger than France
We all think that's swell
He loved her French accent
And her knowledge of the arts
And she, for one, had always fancied
Having a millionaire sweetheart
So they got married up in Dripping Springs
Flew her Mama in from Cannes
She said： 'What kind of romance could make
My baby leave France
Donald must be some kind of Don Juan'
Now she thinks about France and the nightlife there
And it's cafes and bistros
Donald, a hard working, simple man
Likes to see the livestock shows
And when he's not off on business
He's off checkin' out cows and pigs
And she gets weary on a twelve mile prairie
Starin' at the drilling rigs
Now it's a cow town
It's a cow town
For Simone Swann
Living on the Buffalo Bayou
5.He Likes To Roll
Lyrics：Carly Simon
Music：Carly Simon
Why do I try to win the love
That I've already wooed and won
'Cause he likes to roll he likes to roll
He likes to roll he likes to roll
He takes the flower from his button hole
When he likes to roll, he likes to roll
I tend to lose my self control
When he likes to roll, he likes to roll
Here in this little sunny bay
Once a day he comes and goes
He likes to roll...
The moon is down but the odds are high
That seeming me, he won't pass me by
He likes to roll...
6.In Times When My Head
Written：Carly Simon
Vocal：Carly Simon／Linda Ronstadt／Libby Titus
In times in my head
Was together about you
I was an expert a silence
I enjoyed the blonds in their red jeeps
Stopping you on the street
Knowing none could compare with me
In my airy skirts and cool retreats
In times when my head was together about you
I was an expert at silence
You could have told the truth all the time
I was that at ease inside
You never made me cry
And then one night I lied
I got down with a boy in the backwoods
I didn't tell you and you didn't see
And that's when jealousy got the dog up in me
Now every look you get
Seems like another threat
I pick your pockets almost hoping to find
Something to hurt about, to prove you unkind
Oh but I still love you, baby
though now I jsut can't sit still
And though that boy meant nothing to me
I believe I've lost that simple thrill of the...
7.One Love Stand
Written：Paul Barrere／Bill Payne／Kenny Gradney
Vocal：Carly Simon／Michael Mcdonald
It's been a one man show that I've been runnin'
On a two way street for love
I see no end to the dead end
'Til you come back home again
I've tried everything to keep remembering
One good woman
One good man
Two shots of hapiness in one life span
It takes one good woman and one good man
To make one love stand
the only thing that hurts is the memory
Of having once lived by myself
I tired every kind of hustlin' man
I put my love out on the shelf
He took everything and left my ears ringing
I feel at home in a foreign land
You know what's next when there's nothing planned
I'm talking 'bout love
You know it takes two
he took everything and left my ears ringing
8.Riverboat Gambler
Written：Carly Simon／Jacob Brackman
Riverboat gambler
Drinking alone on the prow
Chasing your Bourbon with Tennessee gin
The big game's about to begin
Riverboat gambler
Hiding that Ave up your sleeve
I can see through all that debonaire style
The irony bending your smile
And I won't tip your hand
I won't do you in
I want to stay near you
I want you to win
Riverboat gambler
You can defy all the odds
You can draw diamonds to fill out your flush
You can find someone to trust
And I won't steal your chips
I won't steal your pride
Won't you take me on faith
Won't you let me inside
Riverboat gambler
Under our velvet and lace
You're an old vagabond, I'm a poor waif
Let's make a place that's safe
Riverboat gambler
Come on and let me inside
9.Darkness 'Til Dawn
Written：Carly Simon／Jacob Brackman
Vocal：Carly Simon／Lucy Simon
Chain smoking cigarettes
Enemies across the table
Wonderin' if I can ever trust anyone again
We argue through the night
the restaurant shuts, you catch your flight
I hail a cab with no idea where home might be
We both believed my chance was gone
But ain't it strange how life goes on
A storm can never rage forever
And darkness only lasts 'til dawn
Hotel blinds stay down
Nothing seems to make me care
I can't find a reason to comb my hair
Folks walkin' in the street
Everyone has something to do
My brain won't stop showin' those old movies of you
Weeks pass,
And your voice sounds strange on the telephone
Strange how smooth and casual my own voice sounds
I find that I'm listening to
A tuen coming over my radio
It makes me think of a guy I knew a while ago
A while ago a while ago
10.Dishonest Modesty
Written：Carly Simon／Zach Wiesner
Vocal：Carly Simon／Alex Taylor
You come on strong telling everyone
About your latest role
How you saved the movie, stole the show
Well everybody knows
And if you have no time for all your offers
You'll see that I get called
And if you have no time for all your men
You'll see that I get balled
Well I don't expect humility
But what about some good old fashioned dishonest modesty
You say that you can understudy
All the other parts
You can write a song that will make us cry
that touches all our hearts
And you can House and Garden
Vogue and Glamour, Mademoiselle
But I know you can Bitch and Screw
And Penthouse just aswell
I don't expect humility
But what about some good old dishonest modesty
You try to be unique
But somehow something's wrong
'Cause your flower childish vision of life
Cannot last too long
You're over thrity and underweight
Though you call yourself petite
And you hang around with all the clowns
You think they're so elite
Well I don't expect humility
But what about some good old fashioned dishonest modesty
11.Libby
Lyrics：Carly Simon
Music：Carly Simon
If all our flights are grounded
Libby, we'll meet in Paris
Dance along the boulevards
And have no one to embarrass,
Puttin' on the Ritz in style
With an Arab and an Heiress,
Libby we'll fly away - hey
Leave behind our blues
Trade them all in
For a Paris breeze.
Libby we'll fly
See how dark the circles grow
In a town that has no light
So many eyes just staring out
Into the bloodshot night
And Libby, I hate you to cry, and I
Want to share it all with you,
And if it brings us to our knees
We'll trade it all in for a Paris breeze.
Libby we'll fly.
They say it don't come easy
They say that love is blind
And if you're afraid to be close
Then love is hard to find
And if you spend too much time winning love
There's no time to be kind
And Libby, I'm guilty of your crimes,
I'm just another passenger.
Travelling on these crazy high seas
Very likely be the same
In a Paris breeze,
Libby we'll fly
If all our flights are grounded,
Libby, we'll go to Paris
And wish we were back home again
Or sailing on the ocean
Just a window and a drink
To set our dreams in motion
But Libby, we'll fly anyway, hey
And leave behind our blues
Half sung melodies
Trade them all in for a Paris breeze,
Libby we'll fly.
12.Be With Me
Lyrics：Carly Simon／Zach Weisner
Music：Carly Simon／Zach Weisner
River runs to the sea
Salmon runs to the sea
If you need someone
You can run to me
Flowers grow to the sun
Shines on everyone
If you've lost the warmth
I will give you some
Lay back on the starry night
Feel as big and as small as you are
Well I see who you are
And I like what I see
If you want to be
You can be with me
