Lyrical Response

[WhoTom]

(That's) why I don't cry when my dog runs away
I don't get angry at the bills I have to pay
I don't get angry when my Mom smokes pot
Hits the bottle and goes right to the rock
F***in' and fightin', it's all the same
Livin' with Louie dog's the only way to stay sane
Let the lovin', let the lovin' come back to me

 

[RaoulDuke79]

If you're down and confused
And you don't remember who you're talking to
Concentration slip away
Because your baby is so far away

Well, there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love, honey
Love the one you're with
Love the one you're with
Love the one you're with
Love the one you're with

[Gray Beard]

Ball Of Confusion that's what the world is today
The sale of pills is at an all time high 
young folks walkin' 'round with their heads in the sky 
Cities aflame in the summer time, and oh the beat goes on
Eve of destruction, tax deduction,
City inspectors, bill collectors,
Evolution, revolution, gun control, the sound of soul,
Shootin' rockets to the moon, kids growin' up too soon
Politicians say more taxes will solve ev'rything, and the band played on.

[PastaJoe]

I should have known you'd bid me farewell
There's a lesson to be learned from this and I learned it very well
Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me

 

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

 

[WhoTom]

You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We're all doing what we can

But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait

Don't you know it's gonna be alright
 

[Gray Beard]

Now I've been happy lately
Thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be
Something good has begun
Oh, I've been smiling lately
Dreaming about the world as one
And I believe it could be
Someday it's going to come

 

'Cause I'm on the edge of darkness
There ride the Peace Train
Oh, Peace Train take this country
Come take me home again

[Bill from NYC]

People get ready

There's a train a-coming

You don't need no ticket

You just get on board

 

All you need is faith

To hear the diesels humming

Don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord.

[WhoTom]

Then I feel the wheels turning underneath my feet.
But life looks different from my window seat.
Knowing where I'm going is better than where I've been.

 

And the train keeps rolling

And the world keeps turning.
All abooooooooard, all abooooard.

Everybody's gotta get on board.

[Gray Beard]

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you're around

 

Ooh, baby, when I see your face
Mellow as the month of May
Oh, darling, I can't stand it
When you look at me that way

[Bill from NYC]

Till the morning comes

It'll do you fine

Till the morning comes

Like a highway sign

Showing you the way

Leaving no doubt

Of the way back in or the way back out

 

Tell you what I'll do

I'll watch out for you

You're my woman now

Make yourself easy

Make yourself easy

Make yourself easy

 

[SinceThe70s]

What would you do if I sang you this song
The connection is bad but that's only the phone
'Cause when my words kiss your ear
I'll be right there
The message is long
'Cause baby this is your song

 

I'll bet that
You don't know anybody that could be so bad
But if you did you'd be wonderin' where I'm at
Well I'll be home when tomorrow morning comes

[Gray Beard]

And you can tell everybody this is your song 
It may be quite simple but now that it's done 
I hope you don't mind 
I hope you don't mind 
That I put down in words 
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

[SinceThe70s]

This is the sound
The here and the now
You got to talk the talk, the talk, the talk
To get it all out

 

I listen
I listen
I listen

 

But you're out of tune
You're so out of tune

 

This is the last song (This is the last song)
This is the last song
That I will dedicate to you

[WhoTom]

I'm singing this note 'cause it fits in well
With the chords I'm playing
I can't pretend there's any meaning here
In the things I'm saying
But I'm in tune
Right in tune
I'm in tune
And I'm gonna tune
Right in on you
Right in on you
Right in on you

Good morning starshine
The earth says "hello"
You twinkle above us
We twinkle below
Good morning starshine
You lead us along
My love and me as we sing
Our early morning singing song

[SinceThe70s]

On the back of a winged horse, through the sky of pearly grey.
Love is leaf-like... you and me, baby.
Twinkle, twinkle, blah, blah, blah, etc.

[Bill from NYC]

Pearly's been true
True to me, true to my dyin' day he said
I said to him
I said to him, "I'm sure she's been"
I said to him, "I'm sure she's been true to you"

I got up and wandered
Wandered downtown, nowhere to go but just hang around
I've got a girl
Named Bonnie Lee, I know that girl's been true to me
I know she's been, I'm sure she's been true to me

[Gray Beard]

Leroy, boy, is that you?
I thought your post-hangin' days were through,
Sunk-in eyes and full of sighs,
Tell no lies, you get wise,
I tell you now we're gonna pull you through,
There's only one thing left that we can do

 

We gotta get you a woman,
It's like nothin' else to make you feel sure you're alive
We gotta get you a woman,
We better get walkin', we're wastin' time talkin' now

[WhoTom]

Find me a woman
And lay down on the ground
Her pleasure comes falling down like rain

 

[RaoulDuke79]

I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted to one time to see you laughing
I only wanted to see you
Laughing in the purple rain
