White bird
In a golden cage
On a winter’s day
In the rain
Murmuration sings its sweet song
Change direction in the sun
Follow me I’ll follow you
Journey’s only just begun
Ohh
Here comes the White Bird
On her long way down
There goes the feeling
As it hits the ground
When I hit the ground I was making tracks
And they were just taking my car down off the jacks
So I threw the man a twenty and jumped in and fired that mother up
We’re gonna turn this mother out!
You’ve got a real type of thing going down, gettin’ down,
There’s a whole lot of rhythm going round…
The rhythm is below me
The rhythm of the heat
The rhythm is around me
The rhythm has control
The rhythm is inside me
The rhythm has my soul
Heart and soul…
In the heart of the night
In the cool southern rain
There’s a full moon in sight
Shining down on the Pontchartrain
Shine on me, harvest moon…
Blue Moon, you knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for
My prayer and the answer you give
May they still be the same for as long as we live
That you’ll always be there at the end of my prayer
Mommy told me something
A little kid should know
It’s all about the devil
And I learned to hate him so
She said he causes trouble when you let him in your room
He’ll never ever leave you if your heart is filled with gloom
Chorus:
So let the sun shine in
Face it with a grin
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy…
I think I’ll go for a walk outside now, the summer sun’s callin my name (I hear you now),
I just can’t stay inside all day; I gotta get out get me some of those rays.
Everybody’s smilin (sunshine day)
Everybody’s laughin’ (sunshine day)
Everybody seems so happy today–
It’s a sunshine day.
Well I never kept a dollar past sunset,
It always burned a hole in my pants.
Never made a school mama happy,
Never blew a second chance, oh no
Guess you feel you’ll always be the one and only one for me
And if you think you could
Well, chances are your chances are awfully good
The only one I know, has come to take me away
The only one I know, is mine when she stitches me
The only one I see, has found an aching in me
The only one I see, has turned her tongue into me
L is for the way you look at me
O is for the only one I see
V is very, very extraordinary
E is even more than anyone that you adore can
F is for fighting, R is for red
Ancestors’ blood in battles they’ve shed
E we elect them, E we eject them
In the land of the free and the home of the brave
D for your dying, O your overture
M will cover your grave with manure
This spells out FREEDOM, it means nothing to me
As long as there’s P.M.R.C.
T.R.O.U.B.L.E. like Y.O.U.
Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E becomes final today
Me and little J-O-E will be goin’ away.
I love you both and it will be pure H-E double L for me
Oh, I wish that we could stop this D-I-V-O-R-C-E.
