Til you take me down
(Take me down)
You better take me down
(Take me down)
Take me down to the little white church
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home (oh, won’t you please take me home)
Let me take you down
'Cause I’m going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever
So, how can you tell me you’re lonely?
And say for you that the sun don’t shine?
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
Show you something to make you change your mind
Streets of London. Ralph McTell
Clock of St. James, Clock of St. James,
Like an eye in the sky looking deep in my brain
Seeing my weakness, seeing my shame
Where can I hide from the Clock of St. James?
Winchester Cathedral
You’re bringing me down
You stood and you watched as
My baby left town
You could have done something
But you didn’t try
You didn’t do nothing
You let her walk by.
Ahh you’ve gone to the finest schools, alright Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
Nobody’s ever taught you how to live out on the street
And now you’re gonna have to get used to it
You say you never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
He’s not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say do you want to make a deal?
Lonely, I’m Mr. Lonely
I have nobody for my own
Now I am so lonely, I’m Mr. Lonely
Wish I had someone to call on the phone
Lonely, Lonely,
Tin can at my feet.
Think Ill kick it down the street, Thats the way to treat a friend
Broken windows and empty hall ways
Pale dead moon in a sky streaked with grey
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it`s going to rain today
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
Come to my door, baby, face is clean and shining black as night
My mother went to answer, you know that you looked so fine
Now I could understand your tears and your shame
She called you “boy” instead of your name
When she wouldn’t let you inside
When she turned and said, “but honey, he’s not our kind”
She’ll let you in her house
If you come knocking late at night
She’ll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right
If you pay the price
She’ll let you deep inside
But there’s a secret garden she hides
Why don’t we do it in the road?
Why don’t we do it in the road?
No one will be watching us
Why don’t we do it in the road?
Going down the road feeling bad
Going down the road feeling bad
Going down the road feeling bad, hey hey hey, yeah
Don’t wanna be treated this a way
You know the first time I traveled
Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow
You know the first time I traveled
Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow
I didn’t have no payroll
Not even no place to go
I was following the pack, all swaddled in their coats
With scarves of red tied ‘round their throats
To keep their little heads from fallin’ in the snow
And I turned 'round and there you go
And, Michael, you would fall and turn the white snow
Red as strawberries in the summertime
I will follow him
Follow him wherever he may go
There isn’t an ocean too deep
Or mountain so high it can keep
Keep me away
Follow me,
Everything is alright.
I’ll be the one to tuck you in at night.
And if you want to leave I can guarantee,
You won’t find nobody else like me.
Follow Me – Uncle Kracker
-“BB”-
I will follow you, will you
Follow me, all the
Days and nights that we
Know will be, I will
Stay with you, will you
Stay with me, just one
Single tear in each
Passing year
People stay just a little bit longer
We want to play, just a little bit longer
Now the promoter don’t mind
And the union don’t mind
If we take a little time
And we leave it all behind and sing
One more song
Oh won’t you stay
Just a little bit longer
Please please please, say you will
Say you will
