No I can't forget this evening,
Nor your face as you were leaving But I guess that's just the way the story goes You always smilie but in your eyes your sorrow shows Yes it shows No I can't forget tomorrow, When I think of all my sorrow, When I had you there but then I let you go And now it's only fair that I should let you know What you should know I can't live if living is without you I can't live, I can't give any more I can't live if living is without you I can't give, I can't give any more |

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 break you down Whoa-o-o-o- Whoa-o-o-o- We can make each other happy (4X) {repeat entire twice more} |

Me and my arrow
Straighter than narrow Wherever we go, every one knows It's me and my arrow Me and my arrow Taking the high road Wherever we go, everyone knows It's me and my arrow And in the morning when I wake up She may be gone, I don't know And we make up just to break up I'll carry on, oh yes I will * Me and my arrow (do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do) Straighter than narrow Wherever we go, every one knows It's me and my arrow Me and my arrow (5X) *Repeat |

First day in August
Last rain was in May When the rainmaker came to Kansas In the middle of a dusty day The rainmaker said to the people "Tell me what you are prepared to pay" The rainmaker said to the people "Well, I'll conjure up a rain today" Ninety degrees 'neath the trees where it's shady Hundred and ten in the hot sun Heat from the street burned the feet of the ladies See how they run Called down the lightnin' By a mystical name Then the rainmaker called on the thunder And suddenly it began to rain Then the rainmaker passed his hat to the people But the people all turned away Then the rainmaker's eyes And the Kansas skies Both became a darker grey First day in August Last rain was in May When the rainmaker came to Kansas In the middle of a dusty day The rainmaker smiled as he hitched up his wagon And without a word he rode way Then the people of the town heard the sound of his laughter And they knew the rain had come to stay Rain rain go away Come again another day Rain rain go away Come again another day Rain Rain Rain Raaaiiinnn Raaaiiinnn Raaaiiinnn |

I spend the night in a chair thinking she'll be there
But she never comes And then I wake up and wipe the sleep from my eyes And I rise to face another day Without her Do-do-do Do-do-do-do Do-do-do It's just no good anymore When you walk through the door of an empty room And then you go inside and set a table for one It's no fun when you spend a day Without her Do-do-do Do-do-do-do Do-do-do We burst the pretty balloon Took us to the moon Such a beautiful thing But it's ended now And it sounds like a lie If I say I'd rather die than live without her Do-do-do Do-do-do Do-do-do Love is a beautiful thing When it knows how to swing And it grooves like a clock But the hands on the clock tell the lovers to part And it's breaking my heart to have to spend a day without her Do-do-do Do-do-do-do Do-do-do-do I spend the night in a chair thinking she'll be there But she never comes And then I wake up and wipe the sleep from my eyes And I rise to face another day Without her Do-do-do Do-do-do-do Can't go on without her Do-do-do Do-do-do-do There's no song without her It's all wrong without her Can't go on without her |

I knew a man,
Bojangles, and he'd dance for you in worn out shoes, with silver hair, a ragged shirt, and baggy pants. the old soft shoe. jump so high, jump so high, then he'd lightly touch down. I met him in a cell in New Orleans, I was down and out. He looked to me to be the very eyes of age as he spoke right out, talked of life, talked of life, laughed, slapped his leg and stepped. He said the name "Bojangles" and he danced a lick across the cell. grabbed his pants, a better stance, and wow he jumped up high. clicked his heels. he let go a laugh, let go a laugh, shook back his clothes all around. Mr. Bojangles. Mr. Bojangles. Mr. Bojangles. dance. he danced with those at minstrel shows & county fairs, throughout The South. He spoke with tears of fifteen years of how his dog and him, had traveled about. his dog up and died, he up and died, after twenty years he still greives. He said "I dance now and every chance at honkey-tonks, for drinks and tips. But most of time I spend behind these country bars, cause I drinks a bit." he shook his head. and as he shook his head, I heard someone ask please, Mr. Bojangles. Mr. Bojangles. Mr. Bojangles. dance, |

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 Through the pouring rain Going where the weather suits my clothes Banking off of the northeast winds Sailing on a summer breeze And skipping over the ocean like a stone Wah, wah wah-wah wah Wah-wah wah-wah, wah wah-wah Wahhh I'm going where the sun keeps shining Through the pouring rain Going where the weather suits my clothes Banking off of the northeast winds Sailing on a summer breeze And skipping over the ocean like a stone Everybody's talking at me Can't hear a word they're saying Only the echoes of my mind I won't let you leave my love behind No, I won't let you leave Wah, wah, wah I won't let you leave my love behind |
