Do you mean to perform or record? If you are just performing them you don't need permission. If you mean to record cover tunes, then folllow Roberts advice.

If you're performing a song live, most clubs and professional places are registered with a performance rights collection agency, and you'd be all set. To record, you need to get a mechanical license. That may sound hard and scary, but most well-known songs are registered with the Harry Fox agency. www.harryfox.com You look up your song, register, and pay your anticipated royalties, which are based on the number of copies you plan to make.

Find out who has the rights to the song, contact them and ask them for permission in writing.
