In the Morning
In the morning when the moon is at it's rest, You will see me at the time I love the best Watching rainbows play on sunlight; Pools of water iced from cold night,in the morning. 'Tis the morning of my life. In the daytime I will meet you as before. You will find me waiting by the ocean floor, Building castles in the shifting sands In a world that no one understands, In the morning. 'Tis the morning of my life, In the morning of my life the Minutes take so long to drift away Please be patient with your life It's only morning and you're still to live your day In the ev'ning I will fly you to the moon To the top right hand corner of The ceiling in my room Where w'll stay until the sun shines Another day to swing on clothe's lines May I be yawning It is the morning of my life It is the morning of my life In the morning In the morning In the morning |

There'll be no strings to bind you hands Not if my love can bind your heart And theres no need to take a stand For it was I who chose to start I see no reason to take me home I'm old enough to face the dawn Just call me angel of the morning (angel) Just touch my cheek before you leave me (baby) Just call me angel of the morning (angel) Then slowly turn away from me Maby the suns light will be dim But it wont matter anyhow If mornings echo says we've sinned Well it would what i would give now And if we're victims of the nght I won't be blinded by the light Just call me angel of the morning (angel) Just touch my cheek before you leave me (baby) Just call me angel of the morning (angel) Then slowly turn away, I wont beg you to stay with me, me Through the tears, of the days, of the years Baby, Baby, baby Just call me angel of the morning (angel) Just touch my cheek before you leave me (baby) Just call me angel of the morning (angel) Just touch my cheek before you leave me (baby) Repeat to fade |

I wish I knew how
It would feel to be free I wish I could break All the chains holding me I wish I could say All the things that I should to say Say 'em loud say 'em clear For the whole round world to hear I wish I could share All the love that's in my heart Remove all the bars That keep us apart I wish you could know What it means to be me Then you'd see and agree Everyone should be free I wish I could give All I'm longin' to give I wish I could live Like I'm longin' to live I wish I could do All the things that I can do Though I'm way overdue I'd be starting anew. I wish I could be like a bird in the sky How sweet it would be If I found out I could fly I'd soar to the sun And look down at the sea And I sing 'cause I know |

Suzanne takes you down to her place BY (near) the river
You can hear the boats go by You can spend the night FOREVER (beside her) And you know that she's half crazy AND (But) that's why you want to be there And she feeds you tea and oranges That come all the way from China And just when you mean to tell her That you have no love to give her (then) She gets you on her wavelength And she lets the river answer That you've always been her lover And you want to travel with her And you want to travel blind And you know that she will trust you For you've touched her perfect body with your mind. NOW (And) Jesus was a sailor When he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watching From his lonely wooden tower And when he knew for certain Only drowning men could see him He said "All men will be sailors then Until the sea shall free them" But he himself was broken Long before the sky would open Forsaken, almost human He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone And you want to travel with him And you want to travel blind 'CAUSE (And) you think maybe you('ll) CAN trust him 'CAUSE (For) he's touched your perfect body with his mind. Now Suzanne takes your hand And she leads you to the river She is wearing rags and feathers From Salvation Army counters And the sun pours down like honey On our lady of the harbour And she shows you where to look BETWEEN (Among) the garbage and the flowers There are heroes in the seaweed There are children in the morning They are leaning, LEANING out for love And they will lean that way forever |

Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you You don't know how many times I've wished that I could Mold you into someone who could Cherish me as much as I cherish you Perish is the word that more than applies To the hope in my heart each time I realize That I am not gonna be the one to share your dreams That I am not gonna be the one to share your schemes That I am not gonna be the one to share what Seems to be the life that you could Cherish as much as I do yours Oh I'm beginning to think that man has never found The words that could make you want me That have the right amount of letters, just the right sound That could make you hear, make you see That you are drivin' me out of my mind Oh I could say I need you but then you'd realize That I want you just like a thousand other girls Who'd say they loved you With all the rest of their lies When all they wanted was to touch your face, your hands And gaze into your eyes Cherish is the word I use to describe All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you You don't know how many times I've wished that I could Mold you into someone who could Cherish me as much as I cherish you And I do cherish you And I do cherish you Cherish is the word |

Bob Dylan
I take just like a woman Yes I do And I make love just like a woman and I ache just like a woman but I break like a little girl Nobody here feels any pain tonight as I stand inside the rain And no one has to guess that baby's got new clothes Lately I see her ribbons and her bows and the problems from her curls REFRAIN I take just like a woman... It was raining from the first and I was dying her of thirst That's why I came here and a long time's curse and what's worse is this pain in here I can't stay in here Ain't it clear Ain't it clear I must admit I believe it's time for me to quit And until we meet again bein' introduced as friends please don't let on that you knew me when I was hungry and it was your world REFRAIN I take just like a woman.... Original lyric by Bob Dylan Nobody feels any pain Tonight as I stand here in the rain. Everybody knows that baby's got new clothes, But lately I see her ribbons and her bows Have fallen from her curls. She takes just like a woman. She makes love just like a woman. And then she aches just like a woman. But she breaks just like a little girl. Queen Mary, she's my friend. Yes I believe I'll go see her again. Nobody has to guess that baby can't be blessed 'Till she finally sees that she's like all the rest With her fog, her amphetamines, and her pearls. She takes just like a woman. She makes love just like a woman. And then she aches just like a woman. But she breaks just like a little girl. (break:) It raining at first, and I was dying there of thirst, So I came in here. And your long-time curse hurts, but what's worse Is this pain in here. I can't stay in here. Ain't it clear... That I just can't fit. I believe it's time for us to quit. But when we met again and are introduced as friends, Please don't let on that you knew me when I was hungry, and it was your world. You take just like a woman. You make love just like a woman. And then you ache just like a woman. But you break just like a little girl. |

They say everything can be replaced
They say every distance is not near So I remember every face Of every man who put me here I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now any day now I shall be released They say every man needs protection They say every man must fall So I swear I see my reflection Somewhere inside these walls I see my light come shining From the west unto the east Any day now any day now I shall be released Yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd Man who swears he's not to blame ALl day long I hear him hollering so loud Just crying out that he's not to blame I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now any day now I shall be relased |

Jimmy Webb
Do what you gotta do Come on back see me when you can Man I can understand how it might be Kinda hard to love a girl like me I don't blame you much for wanting to be free I just wanted you to know I've loved you better that your own kin did From the very start it's my own fault What happens to my heart You see I've always known you'd go So you just do what you gotta do My wild sweet love Though it may mean that I'll never kiss Those sweet lips again Pay that no mind Find that dappled dream of yours Come on back and see me when you can Now I know it'll make you feel sad And make you feel so bad They say you don't treat me me like you should They got ways to make you feels no good I guess they got no way to know I've had my eyes wide open from the start And man you never lied to me The part of you that they'll never see Is the part you've shown to me So you just do what you gotta do My wild sweet love Though it may mean that I'll never kiss Those sweet lips again Pay that no mind Find that dappled dream of yours Come on back and see me when you can |

Buddy Johnson
When you just give love And never get love You'd better let love depart I know it's so, and yet I know I can't get you out of my heart You made me leave my happy home You took my love and now you're gone Since I fell for you Love brings such misery and pain I guess I'll never be the same Since I fell for you Well, it's too bad And it's too sad But I'm in love with you You love me, then you snub me But what can I do? I'm still in love with you I guess I'll never see the light I get the blues most every night Since I fell for you Since I fell for you... |

Lyrics to Mississippi Goddam! Nina Simone, 1963 Mississippi Goddam (Nina Simone) The name of this tune is Mississippi Goddam And I mean every word of it Alabama's gotten me so upset Tennessee made me lose my rest And everybody knows about Mississippi Goddam Alabama's gotten me so upset Tennessee made me lose my rest And everybody knows about Mississippi Goddam Can't you see it Can't you feel it It's all in the air I can't stand the pressure much longer Somebody say a prayer Alabama's gotten me so upset Tennessee made me lose my rest And everybody knows about Mississippi Goddam This is a show tune But the show hasn't been written for it, yet Hound dogs on my trail School children sitting in jail Black cat cross my path I think every day's gonna be my last Lord have mercy on this land of mine We all gonna get it in due time I don't belong here I don't belong there I've even stopped believing in prayer Don't tell me I tell you Me and my people just about due I've been there so I know They keep on saying "Go slow!" But that's just the trouble "do it slow" Washing the windows "do it slow" Picking the cotton "do it slow" You're just plain rotten "do it slow" You're too damn lazy "do it slow" The thinking's crazy "do it slow" Where am I going What am I doing I don't know I don't know Just try to do your very best Stand up be counted with all the rest For everybody knows about Mississippi Goddam I made you thought I was kiddin' Picket lines School boy cots They try to say it's a communist plot All I want is equality for my sister my brother my people and me Yes you lied to me all these years You told me to wash and clean my ears And talk real fine just like a lady And you'd stop calling me Sister Sadie Oh but this whole country is full of lies You're all gonna die and die like flies I don't trust you any more You keep on saying "Go slow!" "Go slow!" But that's just the trouble "do it slow" Desegregation "do it slow" Mass participation "do it slow" Reunification "do it slow" Do things gradually "do it slow" But bring more tragedy "do it slow" Why don't you see it Why don't you feel it I don't know I don't know You don't have to live next to me Just give me my equality Everybody knows about Mississippi Everybody knows about Alabama Everybody knows about Mississippi Goddam That's it! |

i knew a man Bojangles
Always danced with worn out shoes The silver hair, a ragged shirt And bare ragged paints The old soft shoe He jumps so high He jumps so high and Then he lightly touches down i met him in a New orleans cafè He was down and out ____________ I knew a man, Bojangles, and he danced for you in worn out shoes. With silver hair, a ragged shirt and baggy pants, the old soft shoe. He jumped so high, jumped so high, then he lightly touched down. I met him in a cell in New Orleans, I was so down and out. He looked at me to be the eyes of age, as he spoke right out. He talked of life, he talked of life. He laughed, clicked heels instead. Mister Bojangles Mister Bojangles Mister Bojangles, dance! He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs throughout the South. He spoke with tears of fifteen years how his dog and he traveled about. His dog up and died, dog up and died, after twentyyears he still grieved. He said, I dance now at every chance in honky tonks for drinks and tips. But most of the time I spend behind these county bars. He said, I drink a bit. He shook his head and as he shook his head I heard someone ask, please Mister Bojangles Mister Bojangles Mister Bojangles, dance! |

They call it rising sun And it's been the ruin of many poor girls And me, oh God, I'm one. If I had only listened of what my mama said I'd be at home today But bein' so young and foolish my Lord Let a gambler lead me astray Now my mother is a tailer She sews those new blue jeans And my sweetheart is a drunkard Lord Drinks down in New Orieans Now the only thing drunken man needs is a suitcase and a trunk And only time he's satisfied Lord is when he's on the drunk Somebody go get my baby sister Tell her to do never to do what I have done But shun that house in New Orieans They call it Rising Sun Well I'm goin' back to New Orieans My race is almost run Yes,I'm goin' back to spend my life Beneath, the rising sun. |

And now, the end is near and so I got to face The final curtain, girl Friends I say clear and state her case of which I'm uncertain I've lived a life that's full of travelled each and every highway And more, much more than this, I did it my way Yeah, regrets, I've had a few But then again, who feel to me uncertain. I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption I planned each other course, each careful footstep along the byway, Yeah, and more, much more than this, I did my way Yes, there were times, I'm sure you know When I did all much more than I could do But threw it all, when there was doubt, on everyday And it's not enough, I faced it all And as big as all did my way. Oh, I've laughed and cried, had my fill my share of losing And now, as tears subside, counted also music To think like the old lad And may I say not in a sky away, Oh, no no no, You're not me, I did it my way. What is a man, what have he got If not himself, and he had not to may the things He truly feels not words of one for use With that shows, I took the blows and did it my way! Original French lyric Je me leve et je te bouscule Tu n'te reveilles pas Comme d'habitude Sur toi je remonte le drap J'ai peur que tu aies froid Comme d'habitude Ma main caresse tes cheveux Presque malgre moi Comme d'habitude Mais toi Tu me tournes le dos Comme d'habitude Alors je m'habille tres vite Je sors de la chambre Comme d'habitude Tout seul je bois mon cafe Je suis en retard Comme d'habitude Sans bruit je quitte la maison Tout est gris dehors Comme d'habitude J'ai froid Je releve mon col Comme d'habitude Comme d'habitude Toute la journee Je vais jouer A faire semblant Comme d'habitude Je vais sourire Comme d'habitude Je vais m???me rire Comme d'habitude Enfin je vais vivre Comme d'habitude Et puis Le jour s'en ira Moi je reviendrai Comme d'habitude Toi Tu seras sortie Et pas encore rentree Comme d'habitude Tout seul J'irai me coucher Dans ce grand lit froid Comme d'habitude Mes larmes Je les cacherai Comme d'habitude Comme d'habitude M???me la nuit Je vais jouer A faire semblant Comme d'habitude Tu rentreras Comme d'habitude Je t'attendrai Comme d'habitude Tu me souriras Comme d'habitude Comme d'habitude Tu te deshabilleras Comme d'habitude Tu te coucheras Comme d'habitude On s'embrassera Comme d'habitude |
