Automobile 04:24
all of us kids, go down to the town boys on the corner, hang out hey pass the wine, come for a ride in my cousins, automobile street lights pass by, pedestrians smile a boy steals a kiss from a pal in the back seat, we watch the street and my cousin laughs at the crowd down by sea, we get out of the car we see a friend at the Bar hey John your sweet, buy me a drink but watch the cops there not so cute around the town, we walk around Robert and Ricky and John we watch the lights,such a pretty sight hay Bob this isn't bad smoke. my cousin pulls up, we pile in off to the beach in a car the night is young, boys having fun give me a kiss in the dark down by sea, we get out of the car we see a friend at the Bar hey John your sweet, buy me a drink but watch the cops there not so cute

flowers were made to explode stars in the garden were exposed and you can make a bleeding rose and the accordion plays to slow A castaway came into my mind gave me another name, made me cry and you can see him anytime and the accordion man is blind all water falls to fast chases the gull and brings him back marries the child and loves the land and gives it to the accordion man All of the songs they made I could sing and at the garden gates I could swing but when the train came i could see what the accordion played for me (and thats) all water falls to fast chases the gull and brings him back marries the child and loves the land and gives it to the accordion man

fishermen take fish from the sea hunters are cruel when they shoot i'm hunting for you all over the world with only kind words and a song who can he be. a beautiful face opens your heart with a smile and over at.. the place where we meet rivers and wings make us cry and on the way, through mountains of pain there is a place that we know old men and children fish on the lake what they catch only love knows fishermen take fish from the sea hunters are crule when they shoot i'm hunting for you all over the world with only kind words and a song

Even as the days go by and old memories fade and die I look back through time and space I see somebody, I see a place Caus old lovers never die They may fade or they may shine Proud mountains can never grow but great rivers will always, will always flow Boats on rivers and cars on roads take me where I want to go But some lovers I have known have carried me from home to home So when your quiet, and by yourself think about someone else One who has loved you on your way A pal, for a few days and Even as the days go by and old memories fade and die I look back through time and space I see somebody, I see a place Caus old lovers never die They may fade or they may shine Proud mountains can never grow but great rivers will always, will always flow

white moon rises in the sky ..on a warm June .. Mississippi night but ..it can't hold a candle too your brilliant banter and all the shooting stars are new and Mississippi too gentle men and ladies stroll .. down streets of old Biloxi town where i met the Queen of Hearts he stole my heart away and everything was new like a Mississippi... moon.. rises in the sky on a warm June .. Mississippi night but it can't hold a candle too your brilliant banter and all the shooting stars are new and Mississippi

the Garden 05:01
dames walk down the hall. the white walls reflect whatever innocence remans where roses fall, and ladies long to tell you why this has never happened before. but after all is said i think you must admit the garden has a beautiful wall lords walk on the lawn. the time is gone when lades could expect there gentlemen to wait in the hall, where gentle rain does not seem to have noticed the change but after all is said i think you must admit the garden has a beautiful wall... ........................red leafs fall, into flames that burn away the memory of what remains where ladies walk down the hall and gentlemen sit and wait for the next war but after all is said i think you must admit the garden has a beautiful wall...

golden boats float down a river of sighs rain on the street is falling tears my eyes wings of an angel open in the dark sky rain on my face is falling when billy cries when billy cries wind in the trees is blowing thoughts in the mind down on the street the cars are passing by passing by when all the passengers from nowhere, arrive through the blue the rain that's pouring we smile wind on the water's blowing moon in the mind in the rain Billy's walking don't cry billy don't cry wind in the trees is blowing thoughts in the mind down on the street the cars are passing by passing by wings of an angel open in the dark sky rain on my face is falling when billy cries when billy cries

Roadio Rose 07:13
Roadio Rose rides a way with the sun setting low in the sky The horizon is gold. Paint the night snowy white and the day winter rose The black rider will break silver chains Roadio Rose shoots a gun. The rainbow follows rain, and the fame of her name follows her. Paint the night snowy white and the day winter rose The black rider will break silver chains Roadio Rose tells the stranger to go to the West with the sun as it sets. Paint the night snowy white and the day winter rose The black rider will break silver chains Paint the night snowy white and the day winter rose The black rider will break silver chains

Blue eyed baby cries in a cradle. Mama said to papa, "Look at them eyes". Over the ocean in a great ship. The captain said to the bin boy, Look at that water". In high places in the Rockies I said to Carl, "Look at that valley". o yes o yes o yes The gardener is gracious. His son is so kind. The lips are his that i kiss on the wheel of time. Blue eyed baby cries in a cradle. Mama said to papa, "Look at them eyes". Over the ocean in a great ship. The captain said to the bin boy, Look at that water". o yes o yes o yes The gardener is gracious. His son is so kind. The lips are his that i kiss on the wheel of time Blue eyed baby cries in a cradle. Mama said to papa, "Look at them eyes". o yes o yes o yes o yes o yes
