Born a poor young country boy
Mother Nature's Son
All day long I'm sitting
singing songs for every one

Sit beside a mountain stream
See her waters rise
Listen to the pretty

How can I run away from darkness at the close of day
When all I think about is you?
Not knowing where I'm going, what am I to do
When all I think about is you?

I'll stand an hour knocking
Knowing that my heart is mockin' me
She doesn't live here anymore

Clear air and sparkling city
Crisp cloud lines crystal pretty
Wind sweeps the streets and swirl by lovers
Strolling through their own world
Basking in each others glow
While I wander lonely
I hear the church bells ringing
Mixed choirs of Sunday singing

I'm leaving here this morning but I don't know where I've been
I'm going home to take my bath but I'll be back again
Yeah, I'm leaving here this morning with a smile upon my face
I'm beginning to think there's hope for the human race

I'm leaving here this morning but I don't know where I've been
There's a lot of talk about the place but I'll be back again
Yeah, I'm leaving here this morning with my eyes upon wide

People let me tell you 'bout my best friend,
He's a warm hearted person who'll love me till the end.
People let me tell you bout my best friend,
He's a one boy cuddly toy, my up, my down, my pride and joy.

People let me tell you 'bout him he's so much fun
Whether we're talkin' man to man or whether we're talking son to son.
Cause he's my best friend.

Way out on the ocean
Far beyond the seven seas
There's a tiny little boat
Faith is keeping her afloat
And a tiny little skipper
With his worn and tattered coat

You see the law of the ocean

Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime
His sister had another one, she paid it for the lime

She put the lime in the coconut, she drank 'em both up (3x)
Put the lime in the coconut, she called the doctor, woke him up, and said

Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache, I said

Down by the sea
That's where we wanted to be
WIth nothing to do

Down by the sea
Don't tell me that is what
You you wanted to do

Everybody's talking at me
I don't hear a word they're saying
Only the echoes of my mind

People stopping staring
I can't see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes

Everybody's talking at me.
I don't hear a word they're saying,
Only the echoes of my mind.
People stopping staring,
I can't see their faces,
Only the shadows of their eyes.

I'm going where the sun keeps shining

The other day a friend of mine said,
he said the sun's not really yellow,
he said the sun is really red

I said, my friend what do you mean,
You read that in some magazine,
Next thing you'll say the earth's not green

No, I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows

No, I can't forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrows

No I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving,
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes it shows

No I can't forget tomorrorow
When I think of all my sorrows,

I'll say goodbye to all my sorrows
And by tomorrow I'll be on my way
I guess the lord must be in New York City

I'm so tired of getting nowhere
Seein' my prayers going unanswered
I guess the lord must be in New York City

I said goodbye to me,
I looked in the mirror,
Then I began to cry.
I'll leave my things behind for all to see,

And hope that she will understand why.
Ending the game is like changing the name of your favorite song.
Step out of rhyme for the very first time and the song is gone.

Adams-Hough-Howard-Orlob

You have loved lots of girls in the sweet long-ago
And each has meant heaven to you
You have vowed your affection to each one in turn
And have sworn to them all you'd be true
You have kissed 'neath the moon while the world seemed in tune,
Then you've left her to hunt a new game.

It had to be you, it had to be you
I wandered around, and finally found
The somebody who
Could make me be true,
And could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to be sad
Thinking of you.

You can climb a mountain
You can swim the sea
You can jump into the fire
But you'll never be free

You can shake me up
Or I can bring you down

Won't you play the music so the cradle can rock,
to a lullaby in ragtime.
Sleepy hands are creeping to the end of the clock,
play a lullaby in ragtime.
You can tell the sandman is on his way, by the way,
that they play,
As still, as the trill, of a thrush, in a twilight high.

Me and my Arrow
straighter than narrow
where ever we go
everyone knows
it's me and my Arrow

Me and my Arrow
taking the high road

Waiting around for the first breath of spring
Nobody else seems to care
She waits patiently for the knowledge that she will
Have so much to give to someone
Waiting around for the knock at the door
Gentleman callers beware
Hoping to see all the flowers and candy he's offered her
In every dream she's ever had

When we got married back in 1944
We'd board that Silverliner below Baltimore
Trip to Virginia on a sunny honeymoon
Nobody cares about the railroads anymore

We'd tip that porter for a place of our own
Then send a postcard to your mommy and dad back home
Mmm, it did something to ya

One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
Two can be as bad as one
It's the lonliest number since the number o-o-one

No is the saddest experience you'll ever know
Yes it's the saddest experience you'll ever know
Oh-oh-oh
'Cause, one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of, once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star,
And wake up where the cloouds are far behind me

Brother bought a coconut
He bought it for a dime.
His sister had another
She paid it for a lime.

She put the lime in the coconut
And drank them both up.

Давно
Далеко
Жизнь была четко
Закройте глаза ....

Помните, что это место, с давних пор
Помните заполнены все, что вы знаете
Помните, что, когда тебе грустно и невесело

Snow fills the fields we used to know
And the little park where we would go
Sleeps far below in the snow.

Gone, it's all over and you're gone
But the memory lives on
Although on dreams lie buried in the snow.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of, once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star,
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me

Dreams are nothing more than wishes
And a wish's just a dream you wish to come true

If only I could have a puppy
I'd call myself so very lucky
Just to have some company
To share a cup of tea with me
I'd take my puppy everywhere

Life isn't easy when two are divided and one has decided
To bring down the curtain and one thing's for certain,
There's nothing to keep them together
How does it happen that two can be tender
And one be the lender of love and emotion
That covered the ocean of sadness that kept them together?
Love when it started was easy to measure,
Each day was a pleasure, each night an adventure,

(Try, Try, Try) You’re a winner if you
(Try, Try, Try) Give it all you have
(Try, Try, Tr-y-y) Smile your cares away, it’s a special day
And people love it when you try

(Run, Run, Run) You’re not done until you
(Run, Run, Run) First you walk and then you
(Run, Run, Ru-u-un) Smile your cares away, it’s a special day

I don't know where I'm goin'
Now that I am gone
I hope the wind that's blowin'
Helps me carry on
Turn on your radio, baby
Listen to my song
Turn on your night light baby
Baby I'm gone

No, I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows

No, I can't forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrows
