Pongo a tu alcance letras de algunas canciones interpretadas por Frank Sinatra. Las canciones las puedes bajar de internet.
Una de las mejores formas de practicar la pronunciación y comprensión es escuchando canciones. Mi consejo es que escuches estas canciones, las escuches una y otra vez intentando comprender el mensaje de cada una de ellas y si puedes, en la medida que vayas familiarizandote con cada una, bueno, tambien las interpretes, te puedo asegurar que es un excelente ejercicio.
LETRAS DE LAS CANCIONES DE FRANK SINATRA
New York, New York
Start spreadin' the news,
I'm leavin' today
I want to be a part of it,
New York, New York...
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it,
New York, New York...
I wanna wake up in a city
That doesn't sleep
And find I'm king of the hill,
Top of the heap...
These little town blues
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it,
In old New York...
If I can make it there,
I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you,
New York, New York...
New York, New York...
I want to wake up in a city
That never sleeps
And find I'm A-number-one,
Top of the heap,
King of the hill,
A-number-one...
These little town blues
Oh they´'re melting away
I'm gonna make
A brand new start of it
In old New York
A-a-a-nd if I can make it there,
I'm gonna make it anywhere
It's up to you,
New York, New York...
New York...
FLY ME TO THE MOON
Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what life is like
On Jupiter and Mars...
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me
Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore...
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
[ instrumental ]
Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
Because you are all I long for,
All I worship and adore...
In other words, please be true
In other words
In other words
I ... I love... you
I have got you under my skin
I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart
That you're really a part of me.
I've got you under my skin
I'd tried so not to give in
I said to myself:
This affair never will go so well.
But why should I try to resist
When, baby, I know so well
I've got you under my skin?
I'd sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of a warnin' voice
That comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear:
"Don't you know, little fool,
You never can win?
Use your mentality,
Wake up to reality."
But each time that I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin.
[ instrumental ]
I would sacrifice anything
Come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of the warnin' voice
That comes in the night
And repeats - how it yells in my ear:
"Don't you know, little fool,
You never can win?
Why not use your mentality,
Step up, wake up to reality?"
But each time I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin.
Yes, I've got you under my skin.
WITH OUT A SONG
Without a song, the day would never end
Without a song, the road would never have been
When things go wrong, a man ain't got a friend
Without a song
That field of corn, would never see a plow
That field of corn, would be deserted now
A man is born, but he's no good no how
Without a song
I've got my trouble and woe, but sure as I know
The Jordan will roll
I'll get along, as long as a song
Is strung in my soul
I'll never know, what makes the rain to fall
I'll never know, what makes the grass so tall
I only know, there ain't no love at all
Without a song
JINGLE BELLS
In a one-horse open sleigh
Through the fields we go
Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob-tail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.
cho: Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, O
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side;
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot,
We ran into a drifted bank
And there we got upsot.
A day or two ago
The story I must tell
I went out on the snow
And on my back I fell;
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh
He laughed at me as
I there sprawling laid
But quickly drove away.
Now the ground is white,
Go it while you're young,
Take the girls along
And sing this sleighing song.
Just bet a bob-tailed bay,
Two-forty as his speed,
Hitch him to an open sleigh
and crack! You'll take the lead.
But I just couldn't say good-bye
It was only self-deceiving
To walk away from someone who
Means everything in life to you
You learn from every lonely day
I've learned, and I've come back to stay
Let me try again - let me try again
Think of all we had before - let me try once more
We can have it all - you and I again
Just forgive me or I'll die - please let me try again
I was such a fool to doubt you
To try to go it all alone
There's no sense to life without you
Now all I do is just exist
And think about the chance I've missed
To beg is not an easy task
But pride is such a foolish mask
Let me try again - let me try again
Think of all we had before - let me try once more
We can have it all - you and I again
Just forgive me or I'll die - please let me try again
you're riding' high in april,
shot down in may.
but i know i'm gonna change that tune,
when i'm back on top in june.
That's life, funny as it seems.
some people get their kicks,
steppin' on dreams;
but i don't let it get me down,
'cause this ol' word keeps getting around.
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
a poet, a pawn and a king.
i've been up and down and over and out
and i know one thing:
each time i find myself flat on my face,
i pick myself up and get back in the race.
That's life, i can't deny it,
i thought of quitting,
but my heart just won't buy it.
if i didn't think it was worth a try,
i'd roll myself up in a big ball and die.
Just like the ones I used to know.
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write.
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.
Sweet comic Valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Yet you're my favourite work of art
Is your figure less than Greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?
But don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little Valentine stay
Each day is Valentine's day
Is your figure less than Greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?
But don't you change one hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little Valentine stay
Each day is Valentine's day
I'm gonna live till I die! I'm gonna laugh 'stead of cry,
I'm gonna take the town and turn it upside down,
I'm gonna live, live, live until I die.
They're gonna say "What a guy!" I'm gonna play for the sky.
Ain't gonna miss a thing, I'm gonna have my fling,
I'm gonna live, live, live until I die.
The blues I lay low, I'll make them stay low,
They'll never trail over my head.
I'll be a devil, till I'm an angel, but until then.
Hallelujah, gonna dance, gonna fly, I'll take a chance riding high,
Before my number's up, I'm gonna fill my cup,
I'm gonna live, live, live, until I die!
The blues I lay low, I'll make them stay low,
They'll never trail over my head.
I'll be a devil, till I'm an angel, but until then.
Hallelujah, gonna dance, gonna fly, I'll take a chance riding high,
Before my number's up, I'm gonna fill my cup.
You'd be like heaven to touch I wanna hold you so much
And long last love has arrived and I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true can't take my eyes off of you
Pardon the way that I stare is nothing else to compare
The sign of you usually weak there are no words left to speak
But if you feel like I feel please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true can't take my eyes off of you
[ horns ]
I love you baby and if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm your lonely night
I love you baby trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby don't bring me down I pray
Oh pretty baby come on and find you stay
And let me love you baby let me love you
You're just too good to be true...
Can't take my eyes off of you can't take my eyes off of you
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart
And I'm ready for love
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with the rain
I've a smile on my face
I'll walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Singing, singing in the rain
I'm singing in the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
I walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
I'm singing, singing in the rain
singing in the rain
