Train arrive sixteen coaches long
Trian arrives Well it took my baby
But it never will again
T for Texas, T for Tennessee
T for Texas, T for Tennessee
T for Thelma, the bitch that made a wreck outta me
Ef you don't want me honey, you don't hafta call
Ef you don't want me honey, you don't hafta call
I can git more women, than a passenger train can hual . . .

Can I have a friend to tea

I love you
Higher and Higher - Jackie Wilson
I Wanna Take You Higher - Sly & the Family Stone(d)
Let me take you down
Cause I'm going to
Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
In Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer
We see the banker sitting, waiting for a trim
And the fireman rushes in, from the pouring rain
Very strange . . .
I'm singin' in the rain
Just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
Well all of my friends is boppin' the Blues
An' it must be goin' roun'
All caught up in a landslide, bad luck
pressing in from all sides
Just got knocked off of my easy ride,
Buried alive in the blues
Sunday morning everybody's in bed, I'm
On the street, I'm talking out of my head,
This dumb brick wall ain't heard a word
That I've said,
I'm buried alive in the blues
Everybody's talkin at me
But I don't hear a word they're sayin
Only the echoes of my mind
I'm goin where the sun keeps shinin
Through the pouring rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
I'm going up the country. Baby, don't you wanna go?
I'm going up the country. Baby, don't you wanna go?
I'm goning to some place where I've never been before.
I'm going, I'm going where the water tastes like wine.
I'm going where the water tastes like wine.
We can jump in the water, stay drunk all the time
I'm gonna leave this city, got to get away.
I'm gonna leave this city, got to get away.
All this fussing and fighting, man, you know I just can't stay.
Just like old saxaphone Joe
When he's got the hogshead upon his toe
Oh me oh my
Love that country pie
Listenin to the fiddler play
When he's playin til the break of day
Oh me oh my
Love that country pie
Now I don't need much that ain't no lie
Ain't running a race
Give to me my country pie
I won't throw it up in anybody's face
Hey Joe, said now,
(Hey)
uh, where you gonna run to now, where you gonna run to?
Yeah.
(where you gonna go?)
Hey Joe, I said,
(Hey)
where you goin' to run
to now, where you, where you gonna go?
(Joe!)
Well, dig it!
I'm goin' way down south, way down south,
(Hey)
way down south to Mexico way! Alright!
(Joe)
I'm goin' way down south,
(Hey, Joe)
way down where I can be free!
(where you gonna...)
Ain't no one gonna find me babe!
(...go?)
Ain't no hangman gonna,
(Hey, Joe)
he ain't gonna put a rope around me!
(Joe where you gonna..)
You better belive it right now!
(...go?)
I gotta go now!
Hey, hey, hey Joe,
(Hey Joe)
you better run on down!
(where you gonna...)
Goodbye everybody. Ow!
Dancin romancin always on the go
The sun's shining down on Mexican Joe
He don't pay no income tax cause he don't got a peso
But if he wants a kiss all he's gotta do is say so
I'll teach you how to sing and dance
With a song and dance routine
And when the party's over
You can fall in love with me
Would you like to learn to tango?
Do you dance the light fandango?
Teach you how before we're done
Anyone can make it two
Any two can turn to one
Just take two, just take two
HER:(Ooh!) One can go out to a movie, lookin' for a special treat
HIM:Two can make that single movie somethin' really kinda sweet
HER:(Yeah!) One can take a walk in the moonlight, thinkin' that it's really nice
HIM:But two walkin' hand-in-hand is like addin' a pinch of spice
Do you remember all of those pledges
That we pledged in the passionate night
Ah they're soiled now, they're torn at the edges
Like moths on a still yellow light
No penance serves to renew them
No massive transfusions of trust
Why not even revenge can undo them
So twisted these vows and so crushed
And you say you've been humbled in love
Cut down in your love
Forced to kneel in the mud next to me
Ah but why so bitterly turn from the one
Who kneels there as deeply as thee
Children have takes these pledges
They have ferried them out of the past
Oh beyond all the graves and the hedges
Where love must go hiding at last
And here where there is no description
Oh here in the moment at hand
No sinner need rise up forgiven
No victim need limp to the stand
And you say you've been humbled in love...
And look dear heart, look at the virgin
Look how she welcomes him into her gown
Yes, and mark how the stranger's cold armour
Dissolves like a star falling down
Why trade this vision for desire
When you may have them both
You will never see a man this naked
I will never hold a woman this close
And you say you've been humbled in love...
Leonard Cohen
