On soft gray mornings widows cry
The wise men share a joke;
I run to grasp divining signs
To satisfy the hoax
The yellow jester does not play
But gentle pulls the strings
And smiles as the puppets dance
In the court of the crimson king
And while the king was looking down,
The jester stole his thorny crown.
The courtroom was adjourned,
No verdict was returned.
They told me you had been to her,
And mentioned me to him:
She gave me a good character,
But said I could not swim.
That same old empty fear
Now I’m right back where I started
That awful day we parted
And all because they mentioned your name
California, here I Come
Right back where I started from
Where bowers of flowers
Bloom in the spring
Each morning at dawning
Birdies sing at everything
Dawn is a feeling, a beautiful ceiling
The smell of grass just makes you pass into a dream
You’re here today, no future fears
This day will last a thousand years, if you want it to
You look around you, things they astound you
So breathe in deep, you’re not asleep open your mind.
You’re here today, no future fears
This day will last a thousand years, if you want it to
A little voice inside my head said
Don’t look back, you can never look back.
Look at me,
I’m as helpless as a kitten up a tree…
There is unrest in the forest
There is trouble with the trees
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas
I’m being eaten by a boa constrictor, a boa constrictor, a boa constrictor. Oh I’m being eaten by a boa constrictor and I don’t like it.
One bit.
What do you know, it’s nibbling my toe.
Oh gee…
We thank thee then, O Father, for all things bright and good,
The seedtime and the harvest; our life, our health, our food.
Because I’m still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I’m still in love with you
On this harvest moon.
She’s got a fine sense of humor when I’m feeling low down
Yeah when I come to her when the sun goes down
Take away my trouble, take away my grief
Take away my heartache, in the night like a thief
She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
I got a certain feeling when I looked into your eyes
I saw the picture of our love I thought would never die
Though time has passed and now I see that it just had to be
Your love was meant for someone else and surly not for me
So if you see me crying you’ll know I’m still in love with you
You made me cry
When you said goodbye
Ain’t that a shame
My tears fell like rain
Ain’t that a shame
You’re the one to blame
You say hello,
And I say goodbye.
Hello, hello,
I don’t know why you say goodbye,
I say hello.
He might be thrilling baby but my love’s
So doggone willing so kiss him
(Wanna see you kiss him)
Go on and kiss him goodbye
Kiss me thru the phone
(kiss me thru the phone)
See you when I get home
I set out running but I take my time
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight
The Devil went down to Georgia,
Looking for a soul to steal…
