What goes up must come down [cowbell enters] Spinnin' wheel got to go 'round [full drum kit enters] Talkin' 'bout your troubles it's a cryin' sin Ride a painted pony let the spinnin' wheel spin
You got no money and you got no home Spinnin' wheel all alone Talkin' 'bout your troubles and you never learn Ride a painted pony let the spinnin' wheel turn
Did you find the directing sign on the Straight and narrow highway Would you mind a reflecting sign Just let it shine within your mind And show you the colors that are real
Someone is waiting just for you Spinnin' wheel, spinnin' true Drop all your troubles by the riverside [1: Catch a painted pony on the spinning wheel ride] [2: Ride a painted pony let the spinning wheel fly]

You've Made Me So Very Happy Blood Sweat and Tears
I lost at love before Got mad and closed the door But you said "Try, just once more" I chose you for the one Now we're having so much fun You treated me so kind I'm about to lose my mind You made me so very happy
The others were untrue But when it came to loving you I'd spend my whole life with you Cause you came and you took control You touched my very soul You always showed me that Loving you was where it's at You made me so very happy I'm so glad you came into my life yeah

I spend the night in a chair Thinking' she'll be there But she never comes And I wake up and wipe The sleep from my eyes And I rise, to spend another day Without her It's just no good anymore When you walk through the door Of an empty room You go inside and set a table for one It's no fun When you have to spend the day without her
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 said I'd rather die, Than be without her 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 the part And it's breakin' my heart To spend another day without her
I'll spend the night in a chair Thinking she'll be there But she'll never come And I'll wake up and wipe The sleep from my eyes And I'll rise and spend the day without her Can't go on without her There's no song without her Can't go on without her.
And When I Die Blood Sweat And Tears Blood, Sweat & Tears Greatest Hits
I'm not scared of dying, And I don't really care. If it's peace you find in dying, Well then let the time be near. If it's peace you find in dying, And if dying time is here, Just bundle up my coffin 'Cause it's cold way down there. I hear that its cold way down their. Yeah, crazy cold way down their.
Chorus:
And when I die, and when I'm gone, There'll be one child born In this world to carry on, to carry on.
Now troubles are many, they're as deep as a well. I can swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell. Swear there ain't no heaven and I pray there ain't no hell, But I'll never know by living, only my dying will tell. Yes only my dying will tell. Yeah, only my dying will tell.
Chorus
Give me my freedom for as long as I be. All I ask of living is to have no chains on me. All I ask of living is to have no chains on me, And all I ask of dying is to go naturally. Oh I want to go naturally.
Here I go, Hey Hey! Here comes the devil, Right Behind. Look out children, Here he comes! Here he comes! Hey...
Don't want to go by the devil. Don't want to go by demon. Don't want to go by Satan, Don't want to die uneasy. Just let me go naturally.
and when I die, When I'm dead, dead and gone, There'll be one child born in our world to carry on, To carry on. Yeah, yeah...
Just yesterday mornin', they let me know you were gone Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song I just can't remember who to send it to
I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend But I always thought that I'd see you again
Won't you look down upon me, Jesus You've got to help me make a stand You've just got to see me through another day My body's aching and my time is at hand I won't make it any other way
I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend But I always thought that I'd see you again
Been walking my mind to an easy time, my back turned towards the sun Lord knows when the cold wind blows, it'll turn your head around Well there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground
I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend But I always thought that I'd see you baby, one more time again, now
Thought I'd see you one more time again There's just a few things coming my way this time around now Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you, fire and rain now Na na na. Na na na na na na na na na na. Na na na na na na na na
I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend But I always thought that I'd see you baby, one more time again, now
Thought I'd see you one more time again There's just a few things coming my way this time around now Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you, fire and rain now
If I ever leave you can say i told you so And if I ever hurt you baby You know I hurt myself as well Is that any way for a man to carry on? You think he wants his little loved one gone? I love you baby more than you'll ever know more than you'll ever know
When I wasn't making too much money you knew where my paycheck went You know I brought it home to baby and I never spent on red cent Is that any way for a man to carry on? You think he wants his little loved one gone? I love you baby more than you'll ever know more than you'll ever know
I'm not trying to be any kinds of a man I'm trying to be somebody you can love trust and understand I know that I could be a part of you that no one else could see I just got to hear you say it's alright I'm only flesh and blood but I could be everything that you demand I could be president of General Motors baby or just a tiny little grain of sand Is that any way for a man to carry on? You think he wants his little loved one gone? I love you baby I love you baby I love you more than you will ever know
If I ever leave you you can say I told you so And if I ever hurt you You know I hurt myself as well Is that any way for a man to carry on? You think he wants his little loves one gone? I'm trying to tell you I love you baby I love you baby I love you more than you ever know I love you I love you I love you baby
Well alright I told you so many times before I love you I love you I love you You don't know so I'm going to tell you one more time I love you I love you
close to my window hoping it would catch the eye of any vagabond who had passed it by and I waited in my fleeting house
Before he came I felt him drawing near Asked him in I felt the ancient fear that he had come to my door and jeered and I waited in my fleeting house
Tell me stories, I called to the hobo Stories of Cold, I smiled to the hobo Stories of old, I knelt to the hobo and he stood before me in my fleeting house. No, said the hobo no more tales of time don't ask me now to wash away the grime I can't come in 'cause it's too hard a climb and he walked away from my fleeting house
Then you'll be damned I screamed to the hobo Leave me alone, I wept to the hobo Turn into stone, I knelt to the hobo and he walked away from my fleeting house
I lit my purest candle Close to my window hoping it would catch the eye of any vagabond who passed it by and I waited in my fleeting house
No one beside me No hand to hold onto and no lips to guide me what a hard world to face in the light of an angry sun ain't it hard to get on, if you ain't got that someone
And it seems that my days are numbered down to a precious few People I know that My days are numbered 'cause I can't get it back together without you.
I see the heaven moonlight see it drippin' down my window flowing like a river through the tears that I have cried I gotta find myself, hey a reason to go on living but you can't breathe life into somethin' that's already died
And it seems that my days are numbered down to a precious few People I know that My days are numbered 'cause I can't get it back together without you.
Hey Hey I got ta tell you right now Every morning (fades)

I'll spend the night in a chair Thinking she'll be there But she'll never come And I'll wake up and wipe The sleep from my eyes And I'll rise and spend the day without her Can't go on without her There's no song without her Can't go on without her.

Meagan's Gyspy eyes The lyres surround me Purple drops of rain The sun shone around me Death that clouds her life Will be forever [Thee?] Is loved Yet cannot love, not never Mystic thoughts of love And her's completely Taught her how to run Though not discreetly Meagan's not as old As she'd like to think she's young Sophisitcated dreams Are as plastic as the songs She has sung Likes to think she's hung up on herself And aren't you lucky? Meagan's Gypsy eyes The lyres surround me Purple drops of rain The sun shone 'round me
