1. Sunny Afternoon
The | taxman's taken | all my dough And | left me in my | stately home, |
| Lazin' | on a | sunny | after | noon. |
| And I can't | sail my yacht, He's | taken every | thing I've got, |
| All I've | got's this | sunny | after | noon. |
| Save me, save me, save me from this gr | eed; I got a big | fat mama tryin' to break | me. | |
And I | love to live so | pleasantly - | Live this life of | luxu | ry; |
| Lazin' on a | sunny after | noon | | | - In the | summer | time. | | |
My girlfriend's run off with my car And gone back to her ma and pa, | |
Tellin' tales of drunkenness and cruelty. | |
Now I'm sittin' here, Sippin' at my ice-cooled beer; | |
Lazing on a sunny afternoon. | |
Help me, help me, help me sail away. Who give me two good reasons why I are to stay? | |
'Cause I love to live so pleasantly - Live this life of luxury; | |
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon - In the summertime. | |
Save me, save me, save me from this greed, I got a big fat mama tryin' to break me. | |
And I love to live so pleasantly - Live this life of luxury; | |
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon - In the summertime. | |
2. You Ain't Goin' Nowhere
| Clouds so swift - | Rain won't lift - | Gate won't close - | Railings froze. |
| Get your mind off | wintertime - | You ain't goin' no | where. |
| Whoo-ee! | Ride me high - To | morrow's the day My | bride's gonna come. |
| Oh, oh, are | we gonna fly, | Down in the easy | chair! |
I don't care - How many letters they sent - Morning came and morning went. | |
Pick up your money - And pack up your tent - You ain't goin' nowhere. | |
Whoo-ee! Ride me high - Tomorrow's the day My bride's gonna come. | |
Oh, oh, are we gonna fly, Down in the easy chair! | |
Buy me a flute - And a gun that shoots - Tailgates and substitutes. | |
Strap yourself - To the tree with roots - You ain't goin' nowhere. | |
Whoo-ee! Ride me high - Tomorrow's the day My bride's gonna come. | |
Oh, oh, are we gonna fly, Down in the easy chair! | |
Genghis Khan - He could not keep - All his kings - Supplied with sleep. | |
We'll climb that hill no matter how steep - When we get up to it. | |
Whoo-ee! Ride me high - Tomorrow's the day My bride's gonna come. | |
Oh, oh, are we gonna fly, Down in the easy chair! | |
3. House of the Rising Sun
| There is a | house in | New Or | leans They | call the | rising | sun. |
And its | been the | ruin of | many a poor | boy, And | me, oh | Lord, I'm | one. | |
| My mother | she's a | tailor, | She | sewed those | new blue | jeans. |
My | father | he's a | gamblin' | man - Drinks | down in | New Or | leans. | |
Now the | only | things a | gambler | needs Is a | suitcase | and a | trunk. |
And the | only | time that | he's satis | fied Is | when he's | on a | drunk. | |
There's | one foot | on the | platform, | The | other foot | on the | train. |
I'm | goin' | back to | New Or | leans To | wear that | ball and | chain. | |
Go | mother | tell your | children: | Not to | do what | I have | done. |
| Spend your | life sin- | cere in mise | ry In the | House of the | Rising | Sun. | |
4. First we Take Manhattan
They | sentenced me to twenty years of | boredom, |
For | trying to change the system from | within. |
I'm | coming now I'm coming to | reward them: |
| First we take Man | hattan, | then we take Ber | lin. |
I'm guided by a signal in the heavens. I'm guided by this birthmark on my skin. | |
I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons: First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin. | |
I'd | really like to live beside you, | baby. | |
I love your | body and your spirit and your | clothes, |
But you | see that line there moving through the | station. |
I | told you - I | told you - I | told you I was one of | those. |
You loved me as a loser but now you're worried that I just might win. | |
You know the way to stop me but you don't have the discipline. | |
How many nights I prayed for this: to let my work begin: | |
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin. | |
I don't like your fashion business, mister. I don't like these drugs that keep you thin. | |
I don't like what happened to your sister: First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin. | |
I'd really like to live beside you, baby. | |
I love your body and your spirit and your clothes. | |
But you see that line there moving through the station: | |
I told you - I told you - I told you I was one of those. | |
And I thank you for those items that you sent me. The monkey and the plywood violin. | |
I practiced every night and now I'm ready: First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin. | |
Remember me, I used to live for music. Remember me, I brought your groceries in. | |
It's Father's Day and everybody's wounded: First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin. | |
5. Take me Home, Country Roads
Almost | heaven, | West Virginia, | Blue Ridge Mountains, | Shenandoah | River. |
Life is old there, | older than the trees, | Younger than the mountains | growing like a | breeze. |
Country | roads, take me | home, to the | place I be | long! |
West Vir | ginia mountain | momma, take me | home, country | roads! |
All my | memories | gather 'round her; | Miner's lady, | stranger to blue | water. |
Dark and dusty | painted on the sky - | Misty taste of moonshine | teardrop in my | eye. |
Country | roads, take me | home to the | place I be | long! |
West Vir | ginia, mountain | momma, take me | home, country | roads |
| I hear her | voice, in the | morning hour she calls me! |
The | radio re | minds me of my | home far away. |
And | drivin' down the | road I get a | feelin' |
that I | Should have been home | yesterday, yester | day: |
Country | roads, take me | home to the | place I be | long! |
West Vir | ginia, mountain | momma, take me | home, country | roads |
6. St. James Infirmary
I went | down to | old Joe's | barroom, On the corner | by the | square. |
Well, the | drinks were | served as | usual, And the | usual | crowd was | there, | |
And the | usual | crowd was | there. |
In a | corner stood | old Joe Mc | Kennedy, His eyes all | bloodshot and | red. |
He | turned to the | crowd a | round him, And | these were the | words he | said, | |
And | these were the | words he | said: |
I | went to | St. James in | firmary, I saw my | baby | there. |
She was | layed out on a | long white | table, |
So | sweet, so | cold, so | fair, | So | sweet, so | cold, so | fair! |
Went up to see the doctor, "She's very low," he said; | |
Went back to see my baby: | |
Good God! She's lying there dead! Good God! She's lying there dead! | |
"Let her go, let her go, God bless her, Wherever she may be! | |
She can search this wide world over, | |
And never find a man like me, And never find a man like me! | |
Well, if I die, please won't you bury me With my high top Stetson hat! | |
Put a twenty Dollar gold piece on my watchchain, | |
to let the boys know that I'm standing pat, to let the boys know that I'm standing pat! | |
Get six gamblers to carry my coffin, Let six pretty girls sing me a song! | |
Put a dixieland band behind my hearse wagon, | |
To raise Hell while they roll me along, To raise Hell while they roll me along | |
Now that's the end of my story; Let's have another round of booze | |
And if anyone should ask you: | |
I've got the St. James Infirmary blues, I've got the St. James Infirmary blues! | |
Let her go, let her go, God bless her,... | |
7. Folsom Prison Blues
I | hear the train a-comin'; it's rollin' 'round the bend, |
And | I ain't seen the sunshine since I | don't know when, |
I'm | stuck at Folsom Prison and time keeps draggin' | on. |
But that | train keeps a-rollin' on down to San An | tone. |
When | I was just a baby my momma told me: "Son, |
| Always be a good boy; don't | ever play with guns." |
But I | shot a man in Reno, just to watch him | die. |
When I | hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head and | cry. |
I | bet there's rich folk eatin' in a fancy dining car. |
They're | prob'ly drinkin' coffee and | smokin' big cigars. |
But I | know I had it comin', I know I can't be | free. |
But those | people keep a-movin', and that's what tortures | me. |
Well if they | freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine, |
I | bet I'd move it all a little | farther down the line. |
| Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want to | stay. |
And I'd | let that lonesome whistle blow my blues a | way. |
8. Lady in Black
She | came to me one morning, one lonely sunday morning, |
Her | long hair flowing in the | mid-winter wind. |
I | know not how she found me, for in darkness I was walking, |
And | destruction lay around me from a | fight I could not win. |
| Ahahaaa | Haahah, | Ahahaaa | Haha | Ha! |
She asked me: "Name my foe then". I said: "The need within some men | |
To fight and kill their brothers without thought of love or God". | |
And I begged her give me horses to trample down my enemies, | |
So eager was my passion to devour this waste of life. | |
Ahahaaa Haahah, Ahahaaa Haha Ha! | |
But she would not think of battle that reduces men to animals, | |
So easy to begin and yet impossible to end. | |
For she the mother of all men had counciled me so wisely that | |
I feared to walk alone again and asked if she would stay. | |
Ahahaaa Haahah, Ahahaaa Haha Ha! | |
"Oh lady lend your hand," I cried, "Oh let me rest here at your side." | |
"Have faith and trust in me," she said and filled my heart with life. | |
There is no strength in numbers. I've no such misconception. | |
But when you need me be assured I won't be far away. | |
Ahahaaa Haahah, Ahahaaa Haha Ha! | |
Thus having spoke she turned away and though I found no words to say | |
I stood and watched until I saw her black cloak disappear. | |
My labor is no easier, but now I know I'm not alone. | |
I find new heart each time I think upon that windy day. | |
And if one day she comes to you drink deeply from her words so wise. | |
Take courage from her as your prize and say hello for me. | |
Ahahaaa Haahah, Ahahaaa Haha Ha! | |
Ahahaaa Haahah, Ahahaaa Haha Ha... | |
9. Season of the Witch
| When I look out my | window, | Many sights to | see. | And when I look in my | window, |
| So many different people to | be. | That it's | strange, | so | strange. |
| You've got to pick up every | stitch, | You've got to pick up every | stitch, |
| You've got to pick up every | stitch, | Mm-mmh, | must be the | season of the | witch, |
| must be the | season of the | witch, yeah, | must be the | season of the | witch. | | - | | - | |
When I look over my shoulder, What do you think I see? Some old cat looking over | |
His shoulder at me. And he's strange, Sure he's strange. | |
You've got to pick up every stitch, You've got to pick up every stitch, yeah, | |
Beatniks are out to make it rich, Oh no, must be the season of the witch, | |
must be the season of the witch, yeah, must be the season of the witch. | |
You've got to pick up every stitch, Two rabbits running in the ditch, | |
Beatniks are out to make it rich, Oh no, must be the season of the witch, | |
must be the season of the witch, must be the season of the witch. When I go. | |
When I look out my window, What do you think I see? And when I look in my window, | |
So many different people to be. It's strange, surely strange. | |
You've got to pick up every stitch, You've got to pick up every stitch, | |
Two rabbits running in the ditch, Oh no, must be the season of the witch, | |
must be the season of the witch, yeah, must be the season of the witch. When I look. | |
10. Whiskey in the Jar
As | I was going over the | far Kilgarry mountain, |
I | met with Captain Farrell and his | money he was | counting. |
I | first produced me pistol and I | then produced me rapier, saying |
" | stand and deliver for you | are the bold de | ceiver." |
Mu-sha | ring doma-du doma- | da. | | Whack for the daddy-oh, |
| whack for the daddy-oh, there's | whisky | in the | jar. |
I | counted out his money and it | made a pretty penny, |
I | put it in me pocket And I | took it home to | Jenny. |
She | sighed and swore that she | never would deceive me, |
But the | devil take the women for they | never can be | easy. |
Mu-sha ring doma-du doma-da ... | |
I went into my chamber all for to take a slumber, | |
I dreamed of gold and girls - And for sure it was no wonder. | |
Me Jenny took me charges and she filled them up with water, | |
And set for Caotain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter: | |
Mu-sha ring doma-du doma-da ... | |
First early in the morning - Just before I rose to travel, | |
A-comes a band of footmen and likewise Captain Farrell. | |
I first produced me pistol for she stole away my rapier, | |
But I couldn't shoot the water for a prisoner I was taken. | |
Mu-sha ring doma-du doma-da ... | |
Now there's some take delight in the carriages a'rolling, | |
and others take delight in the hurley and the bowling. | |
But I takes delight in the juice of the barley, | |
and courting pretty fair-maids in the morning quite so early. | |
Mu-sha ring doma-du doma-da ... | |
If anyone can aid me it is me brother the in the army, | |
If I can find he's stationed in Cork or in Killarney. | |
And if he'll go with me we'll go rolling in Kilkenny, | |
And I'm sure he'll treat me better than me only sporting Jenny. | |
Mu-sha ring doma-du doma-da ... | |
Mu-sha ring doma-du doma-da ... | |

11. The Little Tin Soldier
| Once in a town in the | Blackforest a | little white toy shop | stood, |
And a | little tin soldier with | only one leg | lived in a castle of | wood. |
And | across the room on an | other shelve stood a | tiny glass | case, |
And a | tiny ballerina | lived in there | - | all in a dress of | lace. |
And | from where the little tin | soldier stood they could | see each other so | clear, |
And the | little tin soldier watched | over her | with a love so deep and | dear. |
| Then one day, | sadness came. | The tiny ballerina was | sold. |
| The little tin soldier was thrown away, and | into the gutter he | rolled. |
| The water carried him | to the sea and | many far-off | lands; |
| He made many | children happy as he | passed through their tiny | hands |
And | then one day they | met again in a | town in the land of | Eire. |
And as the | clocks on the wall struck the | midnight hour they | jumped in | to the | fire. |
And | in that fire | they shall stay, Lord, for | ever and a | day. |
'Cause that | fire, oh Lord, is the | fire of love, just | like the | peace of | thy. |
12. Nights in White Satin
| Nights in white | satin | Never reaching the | end. |
| Letters I've | written | Never meaning to | send. |
| Beauty I've | always missed | With these eyes | before. |
| Just what the | truth is, | I can't say any | more |
'Cause I | love you, - Yes, I | love you, Oh, how I | love you! | | | |
Gazing at people, Some hand in hand, | |
Just what I'm going through They can't understand. | |
Some try to tell me Thoughts thay cannot defend. | |
Just what you want to be You will be in the end. | |
'Cause I love you, Yes, I love you, Oh, how I love you! Oh. | |
Nights in white satin Never reaching the end. | |
Letters I've written Never meaning to send. | |
Beauty I've always missed, With these eyes before, | |
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore | |
'Cause I love you, Yes, I love you, Oh, how I love you, Oh, how I love you! | |
'Cause I love you, Yes, I love you, Oh, how I love you, Oh, how I love you! | |
13. Eight Days A Week
| Ooh, I need your | love, babe, | guess you know it's | true. |
Hope you need my | love, babe, | just like I need | you. |
| Hold me, | love me, | hold me, | love me; |
| Ain't got nothing but | love, babe, | eight days a | week. |
| Eight days a week, I | lo-o-ove you - | Eight days a week, is | not enough to | show I care! |
| Love you every | day, girl, | always on my | mind. |
One thing I can | say, girl, | love you all the | time. |
| Hold me, | love me, | hold me, | love me; |
| Ain't got nothing but | love, babe, | eight days a | week. |
| Eight days a week, I | lo-o-ove you - | Eight days a week, is | not enough to | show I care! |

Hope you need my | love, babe, | just like I need | you. |

| Ain't got nothing but | love, babe, | eight days a | week! |
| Eight days a | week! | - | | Eight days a | week! | | | | | | | | | | |
14. Streets of London
| Have you seen the | old man in the | closed down | market, |
| kicking up the | paper with his | worn out | shoes. |
| In his eyes you | see no pride, | hand held loosely | at his side, |
| Yestedrays | paper telling | yesterdays | news. |
So | how can you | tell me you're | lo-one- | ly - | And say for you that the sun don't | shine. | |
| Let me take you | by the hand - And | lead you through the | streets of London: |
| I'll show you | something to | make to change your | mind. |
Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of London, | |
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags. | |
She's no time for talkin' she just keep right on walking, | |
Carrying her home in two carrier bags. | |
So how can you tell me you're lonely - And say for you that the sun don't shine. | |
Let me take you by the hand - And lead you through the streets of London: | |
I'll show you something to make to change your mind. | |
In the allnight cafe at a quarter past eleven, | |
the same old man sitting there on his own. | |
Looking at the world over the rim of his tea cup, | |
Each tea lasts an hour and he wanders home alone. | |
So how can you tell me you're lonely - Don't say for you that the sun don't shine. | |
Let me take you by the hand - And lead you through the streets of London: | |
I'll show you something to make to change your mind. | |
Have you seen the old man, outside the seaman's mission, | |
memory fading with the medal ribbons that he wears. | |
In our winter city the rain cries a little pity | |
For one more forgotten hero and a world that doesn't care. | |
So how can you tell me you're lonely - And say for you that the sun don't shine. | |
Let me take you by the hand - And lead you through the streets of London: | |
I'll show you something to make to change your mind. | |
15. As Tears go By
| It is the | evening of the | da- | ay. | | |
| I sit and | watch the children | pla- | ay. | | |
| Smiling faces | I can see, | but | not | for | me; | |
| I sit and watch as tears go | by. |
| My riches | can't buy ev'ry | thi- | ing | | |
| I want to | hear the children | si- | ing | | |
| All I hear | is the sound | of | rain falling | on the | ground; |
| I sit and watch as tears go | by. |
| It is the | evening of the | da- | ay. | | |
| I sit and | watch the children | pla- | ay. | | |
| Doin' things I | used to do | they | think are | new; | |
| I sit and watch as tears go | by. |
16. Death of a Clown
My | makeup is dry and it | cracks on my | chin |
I'm | drowning my sorrows in | whiskey and | gin |
The | lion tamer's whip doesn't | crack any | more |
The | lions they won't bite and the | tigers won't | roar |
| La la la | La la la | La la la | La - So | let's all drink to the | death of a | clown |
| Won't someone help me to | break up this | crown - | Let's all drink to the | death of a | clown |
| La la la | La la la | La la la | La - | Let's all drink to the | death of a | clown |
The | old fortune teller | lies dead on the | floor |
| Nobody needs fortunes | told any | more |
The | trainer of insects is | crouched on his | knees |
And | frantically looking for | runaway | fleas |
| La la la | La la la | La la la | La - So | let's all drink to the | death of a | clown |
| Won't someone help me to | break up this | crown - | Let's all drink to the | death of a | clown |
| La la la | La la la | La la la | La - | Let's all drink to the | death of a | clown |
| La la la la la la | la la la | la |
| La la la la la la | la la la | la |
| La la la | La la la | La la la | La - | let's all drink to the | death of a | clown |
17. Celia Of The Seals
Should you | wander this land to the | North, | | - And few | seldom | do, | | |
Should you | follow the song of the | gull | | - To enchanted | western | isles, | | |
Coax a | fisherman to take you | out | | - Where the | silky seals are | seen, | | |
Hear the | stories that they tell a | bout | | - The | maiden who is their | queen, |
The | maiden who is their | queen. | | |
| Celia of the | seals, | | - She | knows just how they | feel, - | Celia of the | seals. | | |
| |: | Oy, | Yada Noy, Yada Noya; | Oy, | Yada Noy, Yada Nay. | :| | | | | | |
Seal | hunters are not brave and | bold, | | - They murder her | poor wee | seals. | | |
And | cut off their skins to be | sold, | | - Cursed be | he who | deals. | | |
There's no | reason for this slaughte | ring, | | - They're | left on the | rocks to | bleed. | | |
He's | not a man who does this | thing, | | - It's a | cruel and a heartless | deed, |
A | cruel and heartless | deed. | | |
| |: | Celia of the | seals, | | - She | knows just how they | feel, |
| Celia of the | seals. | | - | Celia of the | seals. | | | :| |
| |: | Oy, | Yada Noy, Yada Noya; | Oy, | Yada Noy, Yada Nay. | :| | | | | | |
18. Proud Mary
| Left a good job in the city, Workin for the man every night and day |
And I never lost a minute of sleepin', Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been. | |
| Big wheel keep on turnin' - | Proud Mary keep on burnin', |
| Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a | ri- | ver. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis, Pumped a lot of 'tane down in New Orleans, | |
But I never saw the good side of the city, 'Til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen. | |
Big wheel a-keep on turnin' - Proud Mary keep on burnin', | |
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river. | |
If you come down to the river, Bet you gonna find some people who live, | |
You don't have to worry 'cause you have no money, People on the river are happy to give. | |
Big wheel a-keep on turnin' - Proud Mary keep on burnin', | |
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river. | |
19. Donna Donna
| On a w | agon | bound for m | arket, | There's a | calf with a | mournful | eye. |
| High ab | ove him | there's a s | wallow | Winging s | wiftly t | hrough the | sky. |
| | How the winds are | laughing, They | laugh with all their | might, |
| Laugh and laugh the | whole day through, And | | half the summer's | night. |
| Dona, dona, dona, | donna; | Dona, dona, dona, | do. |
| Dona, dona, dona, | donna; | Dona, dona, dona, | do. |
"Stop complaining," said the farmer, "Who told you a calf to be, | |
Why don't you have wings to fly with, Like the swallow so proud and free?" | |
How the winds are laughing, They laugh with all their might, | |
Laugh and laugh the whole day through, And half the summer's night. | |
Dona, dona, dona, donna; Dona, dona, dona, do. | |
Dona, dona, dona, donna; Dona, dona, dona, do. | |
Calves are easily bound and slaughtered, Never knowing the reason why, | |
But whoever treasures freedom, Like the swallow has learned to fly. | |
How the winds are laughing, They laugh with all their might, | |
Laugh and laugh the whole day through, And half the summer's night. | |
Dona, dona, dona, donna; Dona, dona, dona, do. | |
Dona, dona, dona, donna; Dona, dona, dona, do. | |
20. One More Cup of Coffee
| Your Breath is sweet, your eyes are like Two | jewels in the sky. |
| Your back is straight your hair is smooth On the | pillow where you lie. |
| But I don't sense affection - No | gratitude or love. |
| Your loyalty is not me - But | to the stars above. |
| One more cup of coffee for the | road. |
| One more cup of coffee for I | go, | To the valley be | low. | | | |
Your daddy he's an outlaw- And a wanderer by trade. | |
He'll teach you how to pick an choose - And how to throw the blade. | |
And he oversees his kingdom - So no stranger does intrude. | |
His voice it trembles as he calls out - For another plate of food | |
One more cup of coffee for the road. | |
One more cup of coffee for I go, To the valley below. | |
Your sister sees the future - Like your momma and yourself. | |
You've never learned to read or write - There's no books upon your shelf. | |
And your pleasure know no limits - Your voice is like a meadow larks. | |
But your heart is like an ocean - Mysterious and dark. | |
One more cup of coffee for the road. | |
more cup of coffee for I go, To the valley below. | |

21. At My Window
| At my window | watching the | sun go, | Hoping the | stars know | it's time to | shine. |
| Daydreams - | aloft on | dark wings, | Soft as the | sun streams | at days de | cline. |
| Living is sying | dying says nothing at | all. |
| Babe and I are lying here | watching the evening | fall. |
| Time flows - | through brave be | ginnings, | And leaves her | endings | beneath our | feet. |
Walk | lightly - | upon their | faces, | Leave gentle | traces | upon their | sleep. |
Living is dancing dyin's doin' nothing at all. | |
Babe and I are lying here watching the evening fall. | |
| Three dimes - | hard luck and | good times, | Bad rhymes and | fine lines | not much to | say. |
| Feel fine - | feel low and | lazy, | Feel grey and | hazy, | feel far | away. |
Living ain't lying dying ain't flying so high. | |
Babe and I are wandrin' watching the day go by. | |
22. Imagine
| Imagine | there's no | heaven, | it's | easy if you | try. |
| No | hell below | us, | above us | only | sky. |
| Imagine | all the | people | | | living | for to | day. |
| Imagine | there's no | countries, | it isn't | hard to | do. |
| No | greed or | hunger, | and no | religion | too. |
| Imagine | all the | people | | | living | life in | peace. |
| You - | You may | say I'm a | dreamer, | | | but I'm | not the only | one; | |
| I hope some | day you'll | join us, | | | and the | world will | live as one. |
| Imagine | no po | sessions, | I wonder | if you | can. |
| Nothing | to kill or | die for, | a brother | hood of | man. |
| Imagine | all the | people | | | sharing | all the | world |
| You - | You may | say I'm a | dreamer, | | | but I'm | not the only | one; | |
| I hope some | day you'll | join us, | | | and the | world will | live as one. |
23. Nowhere Man
| He's a real | nowhere man, | Sitting in his | nowhere land, |
| Making all his | nowhere plans for | nobody. |
| Doesn't have a | point of view, | Knows not where he's | going to, |
| Isn't he a | bit like you and | me? |
Nowhere | man, please | listen, You don't | know what you're | missing, |
Nowhere | man, the | world is at your command. | |
| He's as blind as | he can be, | Just sees what he | wants to see, |
| Nowhere man can | you see me at | all? |
Nowhere | man, don't | worry, Take your | time, don't | hurry, |
Leave it | all 'till | somebody else lends you a hand. | |
| Doesn't have a | point of view, | Knows not where he's | going to, |
| Isn't he a | bit like you and | me? |
Nowhere | man, please | listen, You don't | know what you're | missing, |
Nowhere | man, the | world is at your command. | |
| He's a real | nowhere man, | Sitting in his | nowhere land, |
| Making all his | nowhere plans for | nobody, |
| Making all his | nowhere plans for | nobody, |
| Making all his | nowhere plans for | nobody. |
24. Ring of Fire
| Love is a | burnin' | thing and | it | makes a | fiery | ring. | | |
| Bound by | wild de | sire | | I fell into your | ring of | fire |
| I fell into a | burnin' ring of | fire |
I went | down, down, down and the | flames, they got | higher |
And it burns, burns, burns, that | ring of | fire, that | ring of | fire. |
I fell into a burnin' ring of fire | |
I went down, down, down and the flames, they got higher | |
And it burns, burns, burns, that ring of fire, that ring of fire. | |
The taste of love is sweet, when hearts like ours meet. | |
I fell for you like a child, Oooh, but the fire went wild. | |
I fell into a burnin' ring of fire | |
I went down, down, down and the flames, they got higher | |
And it burns, burns, burns, that ring of fire, that ring of fire. | |
25. Hey Jude
Hey | Jude, don't make it | bad, take a | sad | song and | make it | better! |
Re | member to let her into your | heart, Then you can | start to make it | better. |
Hey | Jude, don't be a | fraid, you were | made to | go | out and | get her! |

26. Leaving on a Jetplane
| All my | bags are packed, I'm | ready to go, I'm | standing here out | side the door |
I | hate to wake you | up to say good | bye. | |
But the | dawn is breakin', it's | early morn', The | Taxi's waitin', he's | blowin' his horn. |
Al | ready I'm so | lonesome I could | die. | |
So | kiss me and | smile for me, | Tell me that you'll | wait for me, |
| Hold me like you | never let me | go. | |
'Cause I'm | leaving | on a jet plane, | Don't know when | I'll be back again. |
There's so many times I've let you down, So many times I've played around, | |
I tell you now they don't mean a thing. | |
Ev'ry place I go I'll think of you, Ev'ry song I sing I sing for you. | |
When I come back I'll bring your wedding ring. | |
Now the time has come to leave you, One more time let me kiss you, | |
Then close your eyes, I'll be on my way. | |
Dream about the days to come, When I won't have to leave alone, | |
About the times I won't have to say. | |
27. Dirty Old Town
I | met my love by the gas works wall, Dreamed a | dream by the old ca | nal, |
| Kissed | my | girl by the fact'ry wall, Dirty old | town, dirty old | town. |
I heard a siren from the docks, Saw a train set the noght on fire, | |
Smelled the spring on the smoky wind, Dirty old town,dirty old town. | |
Clouds are drifting across the moon, Cats are prowling on their beat | |
Springs a girl from the streets at night, Diriy old town,dirty old town. | |
I'm going to make me a good sharp axe, Shining steel,tempered in the fire, | |
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree, Dirty old town,dirty old town | |
I met my love by the gas works wall, Dreamed a dream by the old canal, | |
Kissed my girl by the fact'ry wall, Dirty old town, dirty old town... | |
28. The Mighty Quinn
| Come all without, come all within - You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn | |
| Come all without, | come all with | in - You'll not see n | othing like the | Mighty | Quinn |
| Ev'rybody's | building | ships and | boats |
| Some are building | monuments, | others jotting down | notes. |
| Ev'rybody's | in despair, | ev'ry girl and | boy |
But when | Quinn the Eskimo | gets here, Ev'ry | body's gonna jump for | joy. |
Come all without, come all within - You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn | |
I | like to do just | like the rest, I | like my sugar | sweet |
But | jumping queues and | making haste, just | ain't my cup of | meat. |
| Ev'ryone's | beneath the trees, feeding | pigeons on a | limb |
But when | Quinn the Eskimo | gets here, All the | pigeons gonna rum to | him. |
Come all without, come all within - You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn | |
Come all without, come all within - You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn | |
| Let me do what I | wanna do, I | can recite 'em | all |
Just | tell me where it | hurts and I'll | tell you who to | call. |
| Nobody can | get no sleep, there's | someone on ev'ryones | toes. |
But when | Quinn the Eskimo | gets here, Ev'ry | body's gonna wanna | doze. |
Come all without, come all within - You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn | |
| Come all without, come all within - You'll not see nothing like the Mighty | Quinn |
29. Hallelujah
Well, I | heard there was a | secret chord, That | David played, and it | pleased the Lord |
But | you don't really | care for music, | do ya? | |
Well, it | goes like this: the | fourth, the | fifth, The | minor fall and the | major lift, |
The | baffled king com | posing Halle | lujah |
Halle | lujah, Halle | lujah, Halle | lujah, Halle | lu | | jah |
Well, your faith was strong, but you needed proof, You saw her bathing on the roof | |
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya | |
And she tied you to her kitchen chair, And she broke your throne and she cut your hair, | |
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah | |
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah | |
Well, baby, I've been here before, I've seen this room and I've walked this floor | |
You know, I used to live alone before I knew ya | |
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch, And love is not a victory march, | |
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah | |
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah | |
Well, there was a time when you let me know - What's really going on below, | |
But now you never show that to me, do ya? | |
But remember when I moved in you, And the holy dove was moving too | |
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah | |
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah | |
Well, maybe there is a God above - But all I've ever learned from love, | |
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya. | |
And it's not a cry that you hear at night; It's not somebody who's seen the light, | |
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah | |
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, | |
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah... | |
