Shake the hand of a fool
Oh live by every rule
Shake the hand of a man
Oh play it in the game of love and lost again
Shake the hand of a fool
The world's biggest fool
For beleiving you're every world
Now I have loneliness and a broken heart
As my (?) world
Oh what a fool
Yeah to believe all those lies you told to me
But how was I to know
That you take my love and abuse my heart
And let me go
Well shake the hand of a fool
The world's biggest fool
For beleiving you're every world
Now I have loneliness and a broken heart
As my (?) world
Oh yeah !
I was so proud to call you mine
(?) that old time
You have broken every rule
Just waiting for the chance to play me for a fool
Well shake the hand of a fool
Well the world's biggest fool
For beleiving you're every world
Now I have loneliness and a broken heart
As my (?) world
Well shake the hand of a fool
Shake the hand of a fool
Oh live by every rule
Shake the hand of a man
Oh play it in the game of love and lost again
Shake the hand of a fool
The world's biggest fool
For beleiving you're every world
Now I have loneliness and a broken heart
As my (?) world
Oh what a fool
Yeah to believe all those lies you told to me
But how was I to know
That you take my love and abuse my heart
And let me go
Well shake the hand of a fool
The world's biggest fool

2. Blueberry hill ( L.Stock / V.Rose-Al.Lewis )
I found my thrill on Blueberry Hill
On Blueberry Hill, On Blueberry Hill, when I found you.
The moon stood still on Blueberry Hill
And lingered until my dream came true.
The wind in the willow played, love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made were never to be
Though we're apart, you're part of me still
For you were my thrill on Blueberry Hill.
The wind in the willow played, love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made were never to be
Though we're apart, you're part of me still
For you were my thrill on Blueberry Hill.
On Blueberry Hill, On Blueberry Hill, when I found you.
The moon stood still on Blueberry Hill
And lingered until my dream came true.
The wind in the willow played, love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made were never to be
Though we're apart, you're part of me still
For you were my thrill on Blueberry Hill.
The wind in the willow played, love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made were never to be
Though we're apart, you're part of me still
For you were my thrill on Blueberry Hill.
3. Hello Mary Lou ( G.Pitney / L.Mangiaracina )
Hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
Passed me by one sunny day
Flies those big brown eyes my way
And ohh I wanted you for ever more
Now I'm not one that gets around
Swear my feet stuck to the ground
And thought I'd never meet you before
I said hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
I saw your lips I heard your voice
Believe me I just had no choice
Wild horses couldn't make me stay away
I thought about a moonlit night
Arms around you, good and tight
All I had to see for me to say
I said hello Mary Lou
Goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you

5. Take good care of my baby ( G.Goffin / C.King )
My tears are fallin'
'Cause you've taken her away
And though it really hurts me so
There's something that I've got to say
Take good care of my baby
Please don't ever make her blue
Just tell her that you love her
Make sure you're thinking of her
In everything you say and do
Ah, take good care of my baby
Now don't you ever make her cry
Just let your love surround her
Paint a rainbow all around her
Don't let her see a cloudy sky
Once upon a time
That little girl was mine
If I'd been true
I know she'd never be with you, so
Take good care of my baby
Be just as kind as you can be
And if you should discover
That you don't really love her
Just send my baby back home to me
Well, take good care of my baby
Be just as kind as you can be
And if you should discover
That you don't really love her

11. Maybelline ( C.Berry / C.Berry )
Maybelline, why can't you be true
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true
You done started doin' the things you used to do
As I was motorvaton over the hill
I saw Maybelline in a Coup de Ville
A Cadillac arollin' on the open road
Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford
The Cadillac doin' about ninetyfive
She's bumper to bumper, rollin' side to side
Maybelline, why can't you be true
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true
You done started back doin' the things you used to do
The Cadillac pulled up to a hundred and four
The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
It done got cloudy and started to rain
I tooted my horn for the passin' lane
The rainwater blowin' all under my hood
I know that I was doin' my motor good
Maybelline, why can't you be true
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true
You done started back doin' the things you used to do
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true
You done started back doin' the things you used to do
The motor cooled down the heat went down
And that's when I heard that highway sound
The Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead
A hundred and ten a half a mile ahead The Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
And I caught Maybelline at the top of the hill
Maybelline, why can't you be true
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true
You done started back doin' the things you used to do
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true
You done started doin' the things you used to do
As I was motorvaton over the hill
I saw Maybelline in a Coup de Ville
A Cadillac arollin' on the open road
Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford
The Cadillac doin' about ninetyfive
She's bumper to bumper, rollin' side to side
Maybelline, why can't you be true
Oh Maybelline, why can't you be true
You done started back doin' the things you used to do
The Cadillac pulled up to a hundred and four

12. Diana ( P.Anka / P.Anka )
I'm so young and you're so old
This, my darling I've been told
I don't care just what they say
'cause forever I will pray
You and I will be as free
As the birds up in the trees
Oh, please, stay by me, Diana
Thrills I get when you hold me close
Oh, my darling, you're the most
I love you but do you love me?
Oh Diana, can't you see
I love you with all my heart
And I hope we will never part
Oh, please, stay with me, Diana
Oh my darlin', oh my lover
Tell me that there is no other
I love you with my heart
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh
Only you can take my heart
Only you can tear it apart
When you hold me in your loving arms
I can feel you giving all your charms
Hold me darling, h-h-hold me tight
Squeeze me baby with a-all your might
Oh, please, stay by me Diana
Oh, please, Diana
This, my darling I've been told

'cause forever I will pray
You and I will be as free
As the birds up in the trees
Oh, please, stay by me, Diana
Thrills I get when you hold me close
Oh, my darling, you're the most
I love you but do you love me?
Oh Diana, can't you see

Squeeze me baby with a-all your might
Oh, please, stay by me Diana
Oh, please, Diana
Description 
Réalisation :Shelby Singleton
Du 17 au 20 février, Johnny Hallyday, pour la première fois à Nashville, au studio Bradley Recording Studio, enregistre en prise directe, seize chansons entièrement interprétées en anglais. À l'exception de l'adaptation anglaise de Retiens la nuit, il s'agit de reprises de standards américains. L'album, fait de rock 'n' roll et de ballades, propose douze titres. Les quatre autres sont diffusées sur divers 45 tours dans plusieurs pays ; en France, elles restent inédites durant près de trente années.
L'album n'étant pas uniquement destiné au public français (alors encore peu friand de chanson anglo-saxonne), sort dans plusieurs pays à travers le monde. Il témoigne de l'ambition d'Hallyday de percer sur le marché international, notamment aux États-Unis, où durant le premier semestre, Johnny effectue une tournée de promotion dans plusieurs villes, où il participe à de nombreuses émissions radiophoniques et chante à la télévision dans l'émission Ed Sullivan Show.
En France, la sortie de l'album est précédée par la diffusion, en mars, d'un super 45 tours nommé Johnny à New York, (Nashville évoque alors peu de choses au public français).
En mai, le chanteur revient à Nashville et enregistre seize autres chansons, dont la plupart resteront longtemps inédites.
