PAUL SIMON - AMERICAN TUNE

Paul Simon









Many's, the time I'v been mistaken
And many times confused
Yes, and often felt forsaken
And certainly misused
But I'm all right, I'm all right
I'm just weary to my bones
Still, you don't expect to be
Bright and bon vivant
So far away from home, so far away Irom home

And I don't know a soul who's not been battered
I don't have a friend who feels at ease
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered
or driven to its knees
But it's all right, it's all right
We've lived so well so long
Still, when I think of the road
we're traveling on
I wonder what went wrong
I can't help it, I wonder what went wrong

And I dreamed I was dying
And I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
And looking back down at me
Smiled reassunngly
And I dreamed I was flying
And high up above my eyes could clearly see
The Statue of Liberty
Sailing away to sea
And I dreamed I was flying

We come on the ship they call the Mayflower
We come on the ship that sailed the moon
We come in the age's most uncertain hour
and sing an American tune
But it's all right, it's all right
You can't be forever blessed
Still, tomorrow's going to be another working day
And I'm trying to get some rest
That's all I'm trying to get some rest

TOM PETTY - AMERICAN GIRL

Tom Petty









Well she was an american girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin' that there
Was a little more to life
Somewhere else
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
Yeah, and if she had to die
Tryin' she had one little promise
She was gonna keep

Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an american girl

Well it was kind of cold that night
She stood alone on her balcony
She could hear the cars roll by
Out on 441
Like waves crashin' on the beach
And for one desperate moment there
He crept back in her memory
God it's so painful
Something that's so close
And still so far out of reach

Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an american girl

SIMON and GARFUNKEL - AMERICA

SIMON and GARFUNKEL








Let us be lovers,
We'll marry our fortunes together.
I've got some real estate here in my bag.
So we bought a pack of cigarettes,
And Mrs. Wagner's pies,
And walked off
To look for America.

"Kathy", I said,
As we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh,
Michigan seems like a dream to me now.
It took me four days
To hitch-hike from Saginaw.
"I've come to look for America."

Laughing on the bus,
Playing games with the faces,
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy.
I said, "Be careful,
His bow tie is really a camera."

"Toss me a cigarette,
I think there's one in my raincoat."
We smoked the last one an hour ago.
So I looked at the scenery,
She read her magazine;
And the moon rose over an open field.

"Kathy, I'm lost", I said,
Though I know she was sleeping.
"I'm empty and aching and
I don't know why."
Counting the cars
On the New Jersey Turnpike
The've all come
To look for America,
All come to look for America,
All come to look for America.

EAGLES - ALREADY GONE

EAGLES







Well, I heard some people talkin' just the other day
And they said you were gonna put me on a shelf.
But let me tell you I got some news for you
And you soon find out it's true
And then you'll have to eat your lunch all by yourself.

'Cause I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong.
I will sing this vict'ry song.
Woo-hoo-hoo-o, my my, woo-hoo-hoo-o.

The letter that you wrote me made me stop and wonder why
But I guess you felt like you had to set things right.
Just remember this, my girl, when you look up in the sky
You can see the stars and still not see the light, that's right.

And I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong.
I will sing this vict'ry song.
Woo-hoo-hoo-o, my my, woo-hoo-hoo-o.

Well, I know it wasn't you who held me down.
Heaven knows it wasn't you who set me free.
So oftentimes it happens that we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key.

But me, I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong.
I will sing, I will sing this vict'ry song
'Cause I'm already gone.

Yes, I'm already gone
And I'm feelin' strong.
I will sing this vict'ry song
'Cause I'm already gone.

Yes, I'm already gone,
Already gone all right
Already gone
Already gone

THE ASSOCIATION - ALONG COMES MARY

The Association









Every time I think that I'm the only one who's lonely
Someone calls on me
And every now and then I spend my time in rhyme and verse
And curse those faults in me

And then along comes Mary
And does she want to give me kicks , and be my steady chick
And give me pick of memories
Or maybe rather gather tales of all the fails and tribulations
No one ever sees

When we met I was sure out to lunch
Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch

When vague desire is the fire in the eyes of chicks
Whose sickness is the games they play
And when the masquerade is played and neighbor folks make jokes
As who is most to blame today

And then along comes Mary
And does she want to set them free, and let them see reality
From where she got her name
And will they struggle much when told that such a tender touch as hers
Will make them not the same

When we met I was sure out to lunch
Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch

And when the morning of the warning's passed, the gassed
And flaccid kids are flung across the stars
The psychodramas and the traumas gone
The songs are left unsung and hung upon the scars

And then along comes Mary
And does she want to see the stains, the dead remains of all the pains
She left the night before
Or will their waking eyes reflect the lies, and make them
Realize their urgent cry for sight no more

When we met I was sure out to lunch
Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch

KID ROCK - ALL SUMMER LONG

KID ROCK







It was 1989 my thoughts were short my hair was long
Caught somewhere between a boy and man,
She was 17 and she was far from in-between
It was summer-time in Northern Michigan

Splashing through the sand-bar, talking by the camp fire,
It's the simple things in life like when and where
We didn't have no internet but man I never will forget
The way the moon light shined upon her hair

And, we were trying different things we were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whisky out the bottle not thinking bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long

Catching walleye from the dock watching the waves roll off the rocks
She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul
We'd blister in the sun we couldn't wait for night to come
To hit that sand and play some rock and roll

While, we were trying different things we were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whisky out the bottle not thinking bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long

Now nothing seems as strange as when the leaves begin to change
Or how we thought those days would never end
Sometimes I hear that song and I start to sing along
And think, Man I'd love to see that girl again

And, we were trying different things we were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whisky out the bottle not thinking bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long

We were trying different things we were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whisky out the bottle not thinking bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long

ERIC CARMEN - ALL BY MYSELF

Eric Carmen










When i was young
i never needed anyone
and makin' love was just for fun
those days are gone
Livin' alone
i think of all the friends i've known
but when i dial the telephone
nobody's home
All by myself
don't wanna be, all by myself anymore
all by myself
don't wanna live, all by myself anymore
Hard to be sure
some times i feel so insecure
and love so distant and obscure
remains the cure

JIM CROCE - ALABAMA RAIN

Jim Croce









Lazy days in mid-july
country sunday mornin's
dusty haze on summer highways
sweet magnolia callin'
Chorus:
but now and then i find myself
thinkin' of the days
that (when) we were walking in
the alabama rain
Drive-in movies, friday nights
drinkin' beer and laughin'
somehow things were always right
i just don't know what happened
Chorus
We were only kids
but then i've never heard it said
that kids can't fall in love
and feel the same
i can still remember the first time
i told you "i love you"
On a dusty mid-july
country summer's evenin's
weepin' willows sang its lullaby
and shared our secret
Chorus
Walking in the alabama rain

BOB SEGER - AGAINST THE WIND

BOB SEGER







It seems like yesterday
but it was long ago
janey was lovely she was the queen of my nights
there in the darkness with the radio playing low
and the secrets that we shared
the mountains that we moved
caught like a wildfire out of control
'til there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove
and i remember what she said to me
how she swore that it never would end
i remember how she held me oh so tight
wish i didn't know now what i didn't know then
Against the wind
we were runnin' against the wind
we were young and strong, we were runnin'
against the wind
The years rolled slowly past
and i found myself alone
surrounded by strangers i thought were my friends
i found myself further and further from my home
and i guess i lost my way
there were oh so many roads
i was living to run and running to live
never worryied about paying or even how much i owed
moving eight miles a minute for months at a time
breaking all of the rules that would bend
i began to find myself searching
searching for shelter again and again
Against the wind
a little something against the wind
i found myself seeking shelter sgainst the wind
Well those drifter's days are past me now
i've got so much more to think about
deadlines and commitments
what to leave in, what to leave out
Against the wind
i'm still runnin' against the wind
i'm older now but still runnin' against the wind
well i'm older now and still runnin'
against the wind
against the wind
against the wind
Still runnin'
i'm still runnin' against the wind
i'm still runnin'
i'm still runnin' against the wind
still runnin'
runnin' against the wind
runnin' against the wind
see the young man run
watch the young man run
watch the young man runnin'
he'll be runnin' against the wind
let the cowboys ride
let the cowboys ride
they'll be ridin' against the wind
against the wind ...

DON McLEAN - AFTERMATH

DON McLEAN


Windows in a silent room , sunlight burns the walls to black
Angles and dimensions melt while colors drip and pillows crack
Reflections of my memories like pictures pasted on a sheet
The ribbon film of separate frames lying curled up at my feetÂ

The film is just a snake design and the photographs are fading fast
These are not memories of mine I have no future, no past

I've seen a thousand afternoons dissolve into the night
Like sugar crystals on a spoon they disappear from sight

Gray days from the crispest morning to the warmest afternoon in this room

And I like to draw the face I saw so long ago
My image in the mirror tells the jagged lines which way to go

The black and white description of the sole survivor of the Holocaust
All the rest were lostÂ

Do you see this paper face? It has no color or no mood
My eyes are ageless, as am I. I need no sleep, I need no food
I am a king, but like a child the other children laugh at me
Tongues of fire, wagging wild they dance around me merrilyÂ

I'll kill them all and if I fail I'll kill whoever I can find
Then they'll beg me to be kind

My eyes have seen far more than eyes can ever tell
This planet plunged through mushroom fires of earthly hell

I know that my sweet Jesus said that he'd return
But Babylon has fallen and the cities burn

the sky was made for us tonight
Oh the passenger
how how he rides
oh the passenger
he rides and he rides
he looks through his window
what does he see?
he sees the sided hollow sky
he see the stars come out tonight
he sees the city's ripped backsides
he sees the winding ocean drive
and everything was made for you and me
all of it was made for you and me
'cause it just belongs to you and me
so let's take a ride and see what's mine
Singing...
Oh, the passenger
he rides and he rides
he sees things from under glass
he looks through his window's eye
he sees the things he knows are his
he sees the bright and hollow sky
he sees the city asleep at night
he sees the stars are out tonight
and all of it is yours and mine
and all of it is yours and mine
oh, let's ride and ride and ride and ride...

My child arrived just the other day;
came to the world in the usually way
but there were planes to catch and bills to pay.
he learned to walk while i was away.
he was talkin' 'fore i knew it.
and as he grew he said,
"i'm gonna be like you, dad.
you know i'm gonna be like you."
Chorus :
and the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon,
little boy blue and the man on the moon.
"when you comin' home ?"
"son, i don't know when.
we'll get together then.
you know we'll have a good time then."
Well, my son turned ten just the other day.
he said , "thanks for the ball, dad. come on, let's play.
could you teach me to throw ?" i said, "not today.
i got a lot to do." he said, "that's okay."
and he walked away and he smiled and he said,
"you know,
i'm gonna be like him, yeah.
you know i'm gonna be like him."
Chorus
Well, he came from college just the other day,
so much like a man i just had to say,
"i'm proud of you. could you sit for a while ?"
he shook his head and he said with a smile,
"what i'd really like, dad, is to borrow the car keys.
see you later. can i have them please ?"

you see my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu,
but it's sure nice talkin' to you, dad.

Yes










Move yourself
you always live your life
never thinking of the future
prove yourself
you are the move you make
take your chances win or loser
See yourself
you are the steps you take
you and you - and that's the only way
Shake - shake yourself
you're every move you make
so the story goes
Owner of a lonely heart
owner of a lonely heart
much better than a
owner of a broken heart
owner of a lonely heart
Say - you don't want to chance it
you've been hurt so before
Watch it now
the eagle in the sky
how he dancin' one and only
you - lose yourself
no not for pity's sake
there's no real reason to be lonely
be yourself
give your free will a chance
you've got to want to succeed
Owner of a lonely heart
owner of a lonely heart
much better than - a
owner of a broken heart
owner of a lonely heart
Owner of a lonely heart
After my own indecision
they confused me so
owner of a lonely heart
my love said never question your will at all
in the end you've got to go
look before you leap
owner of a lonely heart
and don't you hesitate at all - no no
Owner of a lonely heart
owner of a lonely heart
much better than - a
owner of a broken heart
owner of a lonely heart
(repeat)
Owner of a lonely heart
Sooner or later each conclusion
will decide the lonely heart
owner of a lonely heart
it will excite it will delight
it will give a better start
owner of a lonely heart
Don't deceive your free will at all
don't deceive your free will at all
owner of a lonely heart
don't deceive your free will at all
just receive it

I like pleasure spike with pain
and music is my aeroplane

songbird sweet and sour jane
and music is my aeroplane
it's my aeroplane
pleasure spike with pain
that mother fucker always spike with pain
I
Looking in my own eyes "hello"
i can't find the love i want
someone better slap me
before i start to rust
before i start to decompose
looking in my rearview mirror
looking in my rearview mirror
i can make it disappear
i can make it disappear "have no fear"
Repeat chorus:
Sitting in my kitchen "hey girl
i'm turning into dust again
my melancholy baby
the star of mazzy must
push her voice inside of me
i'm overcoming gravity
i'm overcoming gravity
it's easy when you're sad to be
it's easy when you're sad "said 'bout me"
Repeat chorus:
Just one note
could make me float
could make me float away
one note from
the song she wrote
could fuck me where i lay
just one note
could make me choke
one note that's
not a lie
just one note
could cut my throat
one could make me die

LED ZEPPELIN - ACHILLES LAST STAND

LED ZEPPELIN







It was an april morning when they told us we should go
as i turn to you, you smiled at me
how could we say no?
With all the fun to have, to live the dreams we always had
oh, the songs to sing, when we at last return again
Sending off a glancing kiss, to those who claim they know
below the streets that steam and hiss,
the devil's in his hole
Oh to sail away, to sandy lands and other days
oh to touch the dream, hides inside and never seen.
Into the sun the south the north, at last the birds have flown
the shackles of commitment fell, in pieces on the ground
Oh to ride the wind, to tread the air above the din
oh to laugh aloud, dancing as we fought the crowd
To seek the man whose pointing hand, the giant step unfolds
with guidance from the curving path, that churns up into stone
If one bell should ring, in celebration for a king
so fast the heart should beat, as proud the head with heavy feet.
Days went by when you and i, bathed in eternal summers glow
as far away and distant, our mutual child did grow
Oh the sweet refrain, soothes the soul and calms the pain
oh albion remains, sleeping now to rise again
Wandering & wandering, what place to rest the search
the mighty arms of atlas, hold the heavens from the earth
The mighty arms of atlas, hold the heavens from the earth
from the earth...
I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way (x2)
Oh the mighty arms of atlas, hold the heavens from the earth.

DION - ABRAHAM, MARTIN AND JOHN

Dion DiMucci








Anybody here seen my old friend Abraham?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
but it seems the good they die young
You know I just looked 'round and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend John?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
but it seems the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend Martin?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
but it seems the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Didn't you love the things that they stood for?
Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
And we'll be free
Some day soon, it's gonna be one day
Anybody here seen my old friend Bobby?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walkin' up over the hill

PETER and GORDON - A WORLD WITHOUT LOVE

Peter and Gordon











Please lock me away
And don't allow the day
Here inside where I hide
With my loneliness

I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love

Birds sing out of tune
And rain clouds hide the moon
I'm OK, here I'll stay
With my loneliness

I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love

So I wait and in a while
I will see my true love's smile
She may come, I know not when
When she does I lose
So baby until then

Lock me away
And don't allow the day
Here inside where I hide
With my loneliness

I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love

So I wait and in a while
I will see my true love's smile
She may come, I know not when

Lock me away

With my loneliness

I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love

I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love

PROCOL HARUM - HOMBURG

Procol Harum











Your multilingual business friend
has packed her bags and fled
leaving only ash-filled ashtrays
and the lipsticked unmade bed
the mirror on reflection
has climbed back upon the wall
for the floor she found descended
and the ceiling was too tall
your trouser cuffs are dirty
and your shoes are laced up wrong
you'd better take off your homburg
'cos your overcoat is too long
The town clock in the market square
stands waiting for the hour
when its hands they both turn backwards
and on meeting will devour
both themselves and also any fool
who dares to tell the time
and the sun and moon will shatter
and the signposts cease to sign

THE KINKS - A WELL RESPECTED MAN

THE KINKS







'cause he gets up in the morning,
and he goes to work at nine,
and he comes back home at five-thirty,
gets the same train every time.
'cause his world is built 'round punctuality,
it never fails.
And he's oh, so good,
and he's oh, so fine,
and he's oh, so healthy,
in his body and his mind.
he's a well respected man about town,
doing the best things so conservatively.
And his mother goes to meetings,
while his father pulls the maid,
and she stirs the tea with councilors,
while discussing foreign trade,
and she passes looks, as well as bills,
at every suave young man.
'cause he's oh, so good,
and he's oh, so fine,
and he's oh, so healthy,
in his body and his mind.
he's a well respected man about town,
doing the best things so conservatively.
And he likes his own backyard,
and he likes his fags the best,
'cause he's better than the rest,
and his own sweat smells the best,
and he hopes to grab his father's loot,
when pater passes on.
'cause he's oh, so good,
and he's oh, so fine,
and he's oh, so healthy,
in his body and his mind.
he's a well respected man about town,
doing the best things so conservatively.
And he plays at stocks and shares,
and he goes to the regatta,
and he adores the girl next door,
'cause he's dying to get at her,
but his mother knows the best about
the matrimonial stakes.
'cause he's oh, so good,
and he's oh, so fine,
and he's oh, so healthy,
in his body and his mind.
he's a well respected man about town,
doing the best things so conservatively.

DAN FOGELBERG - A VOICE FOR PEACE

Dan Fogelberg






You know that everybody has a voice
And how they use it is their own free choice
In your glory I will not rejoice
If you choose the ways of war
If you choose the ways of war

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
My country ’tis of thee, in God we trust
But how much longer will he shelter us
While we choose the ways of war
While the winds of war rage on

Let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace
Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace
Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace
Let it start here with me, oh let mine be a voice for peace

The good book tells us thou shalt not kill
The truth came shining and it’s shining still
But how much blood upon this earth must spill
Before we lay our weapons down
Let us lay our weapons down

Let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace
Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace
Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace
Let it start here with me, oh let mine be a voice for peace

And in the face of the beast, oh let mine be a voice
Until the breaths in me cease, oh let mine be a voice for peace

Let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace
Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace
Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace
Let it start here with me, oh let mine be a voice for peace

Raise your voice up, raise your voice up
Raise your voice up and sing for the promise

VANESSA CARLTON - ORDINARY DAY

Vanessa Carlton








Just a day, just an, ordinary day
just tryin' to get by
just a boy, just an, ordinary boy but
he was looking to the sky and
as he asked if i would come along
i started to realize that everyday he finds just what he's lookin' for
and like a shooting star he shines, and he said
Take my hand, live while you can,
don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand
And as he spoke, he spoke, ordinary words
though they did not feel
for i felt what i had not felt before
and you'd swear those words could heal and
as i looked up into those eyes, his vision borrows mine
and i know he's no stranger
for i feel i've held him for all of time, and he said
(chorus)
Please come with me, see what i see
touch the stars for time will not flee
time will not flee, can't you see...
Just a dream, just an, ordinary dream
as i wake in bed
and that boy, that ordinary boy
was it all in my head?
didn't he ask if i would come along
it all seemed so real, but as i looked to the door
i saw that boy standing there with a deal, and he said
(chorus)
Just a day, just an ordinary day
just tryin' to get by
just a boy, just an ordinary boy, but
he was looking to the sky

BILLY JOEL - A MATTER OF TRUST

BILLY JOEL







One, two, one, two, three, four
Some love is just a lie of the heart
the cold remains of what began with a passionate start
and they may not want it to end
but it will it's just a question of when
i've lived long enough to have learned
the closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
but that won't happen to us
cause it's always been a matter of trust
I know you're an emotional girl
it took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
i can't offer you proof
but you're going to face a moment of truth
it's hard when you're always afraid
you just recover when another belief is betrayed
so break my heart if you must
it's a matter of trust
You can't go the distance
with too much resistance
i know you have doubts
but for god's sake don't shut me out
This time you've got nothing to lose
you can take it, you can leave it, whatever you choose
i won't hold back anything
and i'll walk away a fool or a king
some love is just a lie of the mind
it's make believe until its only a matter of time
and some might have learned to adjust
but then it never was a matter of trust
I'm sure you're aware love
we've both had our share of believing too long
when the whole situation was wrong
Some love is just a lie of the soul
a constant battle for the ultimate state of control
after you've heard lie upon lie
there can hardly be a question of why
some love is just a lie of the heart
the cold remains of what began with a passionate start
But that can't happen to us
cause it's always been a matter of trust
it's a matter of trust
it's always been a matter of trust
it's a matter of trust
cause it's always been a matter of trust

SIMON and GARFUNKEL - A HAZY SHADE OF WINTER

SIMON and GARFUNKEL





Time,
time,
time, see what's become of me
while i looked around for my possibilities.
i was so hard to please.
look around,
leaves are brown,
and the sky is a hazy shade of winter.
Hear the salvation army band.
down by the riverside's
bound to be a better ride
than what you've got planned.
carry your cup in your hand.
and look around,
leaves are brown,
and the sky is a hazy shade of winter.
Hang on to your hopes, my friend.
that's an easy thing to say,
but if your hopes should pass away
simply pretend that you can build them again.
look around,
the grass is high,
the fields are ripe,
it's the springtime of my life
Seasons change with the scenery;
weaving time in a tapestry
won't you stop and remember me
At any convenient time?
funny how my memory skips
looking over manuscripts
of unpublished rhyme.
drinking my vodka and lime,
i look around
leaves are brown,
and the sky is a hazy shade of winter.

BOB DYLAN - A HARD RAIN´S A-GONNA FALL

BOB DYLAN







Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains,
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways,
I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests,
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans,
I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it,
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin',
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin',
I saw a white ladder all covered with water,
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken,
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin',
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world,
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin',
Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin',
Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin',
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter,
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
I met a young child beside a dead pony,
I met a white man who walked a black dog,
I met a young woman whose body was burning,
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow,
I met one man who was wounded in love,
I met another man who was wounded with hatred,
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one?
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin',
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest,
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty,
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters,
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison,
Where the executioner's face is always well hidden,
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten,
Where black is the color, where none is the number,
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it,
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it,
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',
But I'll know my song well before I start singin',
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

SAM COOKE - A CHANGE IS GONNA COME

Sam Cooke








I was born by the river
in a little tent
and just like the river
i've been running ever since
It's been a long, long time coming
but i know a change gonna come
oh, yes it is
It's been too hard living
but i'm afraid to die
i don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time coming
but i know a change gonna come
oh yes it will
Then i go to my brother
i say brother help me please
but he winds up knocking me
back down on my knees
There's been times that i thought
i wouldn't last for long
but now i think i'm able to carry on
it's been a long, long time coming
but i know a change is gonna come
oh, yes it will
