Hey where did we go, days when the rain came.
Down in the hollow, playin' a new game. Laughin' and a runnin' , hey hey, skippin' and a jumpin' in the misty mornin' fog with our hearts a thumpin' at you, The Brown-Eyed Girl You're my Brown-Eyed Girl Now what ever happened, Tuesday is so slow, Goin' down the old man river, with a transistor radio standin' in the sunlight laughin' hidin' behind a rainbow wall Slippin' and a slidin', all along the waterfall with you, the Brown-Eyed Girl You're my Brown-Eyed Girl. Do you remember when, ah we used to sing Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah la dee dah So hard to find my way, now that I'm all on my own I saw you just the other day, my how you had grown, Cast my memory back there Lord Sometimes I'm overcome thinkin' bout, makin love in the green grass, behind the stadium with you. the Brown-Eyed Girl You, my Brown-Eyed Girl. Do you remember when, ah we used to sing Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah la dee dah |

Spanish Rose
The wine beneath the bed, The things we've done and said And all the memories that come glancing back to me In my loneliness You're standing in the bridge Beyond that stretch, but our love will reach Unconsciousness that find me sometimes wondering Where you're at. Hmm, take me back again, Take me back one more time, Spanish rose. The way you pulled the gate Behind you when you said, "It ain't too late, Come on, let's swing, let's turn and have a Ball tonight." And hoping you'd come through And many others, too, And all the friends we used to have in days gone by, I'm wondering If you'll take me back again, Take me back one more time, Spanish rose. And when the lights went out And no one was abandoning the country in full bloom, In the room we danced And many hearts were torn And when the word went around that everything was wrong And just couldn't be put right It tore me up, it tore me up, love. This room where you did sleep, The window I did creep And touched your raven hair and sang that song Again to you. You did not even wince, You thought I was the Prince To come and take you from your misery In lonely castle walls. Ah, take me back again, Take me back one more time, Spanish rose. Ah ah, ah ah, ooh, hmm, da da da di da da da ... |

Goodbye Baby (Baby Goodbye)
Goodbye baby, so long girl. I know you ain't gonna like it, But I'm stepping right out in your world For I'm coming to your party And I won't be able to stay, But I'm gonna kiss you one more time, Lord, Then I'm going away. Goodbye baby hmm, baby goodbye hmm. You may be lonely, yeah, you may be hurt, Like a fool I gave you candy, You turned around and treated me like dirt. But still I'm gonna come to your party And just before the break of day I'm gonna touch you one more time, Lord, Then I'm going away. Sing it to me again Goodbye baby hmm ha, baby goodbye. Look out, what you see ? I see a train a-coming, A train a-coming down the long lonesome track. I'll tell you, girl, I gotta go on home now, But deep down in your heart You know that someday I'm, I'm coming back And I'm gonna look for you at your party, 'Cause all the time I know that I'll find you there And listen, I'm gonna dance with you One more time, oh yeah. Sing it to me tonight now Goodbye baby, sing it sweet baby goodbye. Lord, you're singing so sweet tonight Goodbye baby Goodbye baby baby baby baby goodbye I'll see you around sometime, Lord Goodbye baby... |

Who Drove the Red Sports Car
Who drove the red sports car from the mansion And laid upon the grass in summer time ? And who done me out high time fashion And made me read between the lines ? And who said, "Follow the man, it's your only chance, Sit on your throne, you got to make it on your own, on your own"? And who said, "Ha, ha, look at you, look at you, You got jam on your face." And who did your homework and read your Bible And signed your name every place ? And who said, "Fortunes untold don't go by gold, You're much better known, you got to make it on your own, On your own." Ah, ah, huh uh. And do you remember, do you remember this time, I said a long time ago when I came walkin' down, I came walkin' down, ha, by Maggie's place, ha ha ha, It started comin' on rain, huh, it started comin' on rain, 'Cause I had nothing on but a shirt and a pair of pants And I was getting wet, I was getting wet, saturated, saturated there, And Maggie opened up the window and Jane swung out her right arm, She said, "Hi!" I said. "Hi, how're you doing, baby ?" She said, "Come on in out the rain, come on in out the rain, Lord, come on in out the rain, sit down by the fireside, And dry yourself." Achoo, do it, do it, ha ha ha, I got caught, I got caught in a, in a bag, in the bag, oh Lord, I said, "I don't mind if I do, I don't mind if I do." Ha, aah... |

Words and music by Van Morrison
Little gal, little girl Lord, you know it's true Little gal, little girl, Lord, you know it's true, I don't want to stop Rockin' and rollin' with you. Are you gonna let me stand alone, Are you gonna let me stand alone, Caught you this mornin' Before your Daddy came home. And I've done more for you Than your Daddy has ever done, I've done more for you Than your Daddy has ever done Gave you my jelly roll And he ain't give you none. Don't you ever go down Down on Kersian [Curzon?] Street, It's bad Don't you ever go down Down on Kersian [Curzon?] Street That's where old John Flogs his daily meat Maybe sometime he says leave the Little boy and the girl behind I got messed up round somewhere Called the Notting Hill Gate I lived there for awhile But I moved out And when I moved out I was in such a state I've never gone back there, but I'm sure I done more for you Than you Daddy has ever done baby Made you learn your syllables. Done more for you Than your Daddy has ever done Gave you my jelly roll And he ain't give you none |

Well you thought I was a stranger
When you looked upon me, when I came back But to take you from disaster I cannot master I cannot master the four winds and your shack And the roamin' in the gloamin' you have brought, and set before me And I think that it's an omen, I'm just not what so many people see. And you shine your glory all around Do not disguise what we did I asked you for half a pound, and you said - Go see Joe Harper, Saturday morning, kid Go see Joe Harper, Saturday morning, kid. And the child held a ball in the garden, with the old queen Well you kissed the lips and heart and all the strangers, you know what I mean And you walked on the streets so lonely, in your own childish way And you thought that you would only - do it for today. And I shined your glory all around Did not disguise what we did I asked you for half a pound, and you said - Go see Joe Harper, Saturday morning, kid Go see Joe Harper, Saturday morning, kid. And just went outside the club and the rain came down on his head and it got all soaking wet. He says Go for yourself, I said I know, sure Joe, I ain't conquered yet And I walked away from the backstreets and the rain, and the song, how many times have I died? And we turned on outside of the bus shelter and I jumped on and said Goodbye. And I shined my glory all around Did not disguise what I did Tried to keep it underground but they said - Go see Joe Harper, Saturday morning, kid You gotta, go see Joe Harper, Saturday morning, Saturday morning... |

Beside You_
Little Jimmy's gone Way out of the backstreet Out of the window Through the fallin' rain Right on time Right on time That's why Broken Arrow Waved his finger down the road so dark and narrow In the evenin' Just before the Sunday six-bells chime, six-bells chime And all the dogs are barkin' Way on down the diamond-studded highway where you wander And you roam from your retreat and view Way over on the railroad Tomorrow all the tippin' trucks will unload Every scrapbook stuck will glue And I'll stand beside you Beside you child To never never never wonder why at all No no no no no no no no To never never wonder why at all To never never never wonder why it's gotta be It has to be Way across the country where the hillside mountain glide The dynamo of your smile caressed the barefoot virgin child to wander Past your window with a lantern lit You held it in the doorway and you cast against the pointed island breeze Said your time was open, go well on your merry way Past the brazen footsteps of the silence easy You breathe in you breathe out you breathe in you breathe out you breath in you breathe out you breathe in you breathe out And you're high on your high-flyin' cloud Wrapped up in your magic shroud as ecstasy surrounds you This time it's found you You turn around you turn around you turn around you turn around And I'm beside you Beside you Oh darlin' To never never wonder why at all No no no no no To never never never wonder why at all To never never never wonder why it's gotta be It has to be And I'm beside you Beside you Oh child To never never wonder why at all I'm beside you Beside you Beside you Beside you.. Oh child... |

Hey! Yeah, its all right. Now that you try to do to me Out there a-walkin' doesn't matter, baby Ain't no question, no suggestion Nothin' in my mind that can't be Shut out when I want it to be Nothin' in yours that can't be kept in When you open it up and lose it And nothin' you can't let out If it's got to be let out, just let it out And don't worry which way it goes. Chorus Now how can I tell you that I love you How can I say so many words and so many syllables In such a short space of time as this Just turn it on and soak it in And let it run off the walls And let it down, keep it, and don't lose it Or confuse it It's just right there layin' open Completely open for everybody to see Yeah, you got it.

Madame George
Down on Cyprus Avenue With a childlike vision leaping into view Clicking, clacking of the high heeled shoe Ford & Fitzroy, Madame George Marching with the soldier boy behind He's much older with hat on drinking wine And that smell of sweet perfume comes drifting through The cool night air like Shalimar And outside they're making all the stops The kids out in the street collecting bottle-tops Gone for cigarettes and matches in the shops Happy taken Madame George That's when you fall Whoa, that's when you fall Yeah, that's when you fall When you fall into a trance A sitting on a sofa playing games of chance With your folded arms and history books you glance Into the eyes of Madame George And you think you found the bag You're getting weaker and your knees begin to sag In the corner playing dominoes in drag The one and only Madame George And then from outside the frosty window raps She jumps up and says Lord have mercy I think it's the cops And immediately drops everything she gots Down into the street below And you know you gotta go On that train from Dublin up to Sandy Row Throwing pennies at the bridges down below And the rain, hail, sleet, and snow Say goodbye to Madame George Dry your eye for Madame George Wonder why for Madame George And as you leave, the room is filled with music, laughing, music, dancing, music all around the room And all the little boys come around, walking away from it all So cold And as you're about to leave She jumps up and says Hey love, you forgot your gloves And the gloves to love to love the gloves... To say goodbye to Madame George Dry your eye for Madame George Wonder why for Madame George Dry your eyes for Madame George Say goodbye in the wind and the rain on the back street In the backstreet, in the back street Say goodbye to Madame George In the backstreet, in the back street, in the back street Down home, down home in the back street Gotta go Say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Dry your eye your eye your eye your eye your eye... Say goodbye to Madame George And the loves to love to love the love Say goodbye Oooooo Mmmmmmm Say goodbye goodbye goodbye goodbye to Madame George Dry your eye for Madame George Wonder why for Madame George The love's to love the love's to love the love's to love... Say goodbye, goodbye Get on the train Get on the train, the train, the train... This is the train, this is the train... Whoa, say goodbye, goodbye.... Get on the train, get on the train... |
