"I Trust"

"I Trust"

In times of despair
I think about the good things that you've done
And although you're not there
I sometimes ask myself is anyone

It's hard beeing human when the whole world's uptight
But somehow I know
That everything's gonna work out alright

I might lose my patience
Won't you please try to understand
I've got an obligation
And I intend to face them to take my stand

It's so hard beeing human when only trouble's in sight
But somehow I know
That everything's gonna work out alright

Stick by me baby inspite of my faults
That's all I want you to do
And try to help me when I'm down
And I'll take good care of you

I wanna thank you
For all the loving that you give
It brightens my feelings
And gives me the strength I need to live

It's so hard beeing human when only trouble's in sight
But somehow I know
That everything's gonna work out alright

"I Wanna Grow Up To Be A Politician"

"I Wanna Grow Up To Be A Politician"

I wanna grow up to be a politician
And take over this beautiful land
I wanna grow up to be a politician
And be the old USofA's number one man

I'll always be tough, I'll never be scary
I want to shoot guns or butter my bread
I'll work on the towns or conservate the prairies
And you can believe the future's ahead

I'll give the young the right to vote
As soon as they mature
But spare the rod and spoil the child
To help them feel secure

And if I win election day
I'll sign the bill to help the poor
To show I'm not snob

I'll open my door, I'm chargin' no admission
And you can be sure I'll give you my hand
I'll be glad you got me in everything I do
And I'll defend until the end
The old red, white and blue

I want to grow up...

"I'll Feel A Whole Lot Better"

"I'll Feel A Whole Lot Better"

The reason why, Oh I can say
I have to let you go , and right away
After what you did, I can't stay on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone

Baby for a long time, you had me believe
That your love was all mine, and that's the way it would be
But I didn't know, that you were putting me on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone

Now I've got to say, that it's not like before
And I'm not gonna play, your games anymore
After what you did, I can't stay on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone
Oh when you're gone
Oh when you're gone
Oh when you're gone

"If You're Gone"

"If You're Gone"

If I need you to me your everything
If I have you if I love you just the same
If your here the night is likely going to fall
If your gone I'll see the daylight in that song
If I stand alone understanding what is now
If I ever need someone to show me how
If the daylight can be hidden by the sun
If your gone then I'll know why I miss someone

If I love you if I know how much I care
If I find the things you wanted anywhere
If I know you I may never know your name
If your gone then there is nothing that remains

"It Happens Each Day"

"It Happens Each Day"

Like a silent ray of sunlight catching in my eye
Like a bird sea-goin' coasting on my sky
It happens each day you're away from here

A bunch of friends are missing from this tapestry
I remember kissing do you remember me
It happens each day you're away from here

Like a disembodied spirit watching over me
Like a sister sailing ship dead against the sea
It happens each day you're away from here

"It Won't Be Wrong"

"It Won't Be Wrong"

Every time I see you smile, come to me, don't be long
Let me tell you how my heart goes wild.
Please let me love you and it won't be wrong

Every time you're in my arms, come to me, don't be long
You know that I'll never do you no harm
Please let me love you and it won't be wrong

[Chorus:]
Let me love you and then you'll see, come to me, come to me
Let me show you once and we'll be free
Please let me love you and it won't be wrong

Every time I see you smile, come to me, don't be long
Let me tell you how my heart goes wild.
Please let me love you and it won't be wrong

[Chorus]

"It's All Over Now, Baby Blue"

"It's All Over Now, Baby Blue"

You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last.
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast.
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun,
Crying like a fire in the sun.
Look out the saints are comin' through
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.
Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
The empty-handed painter from your streets
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets.
This sky, too, is folding under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home.
All your reindeer armies, are all going home.
The lover who just walked out your door
Has taken all his blankets from the floor.
The carpet, too, is moving under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
Strike another match, go start anew
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

"It's No Use"

"It's No Use"

It's no use saying you're gonna stay
If you don't want to be all mine
I haven't got room for somebody who
Is gonna hurt me all the time
Somebody who couldn't see
All the love I was trying to give
It's no use saying you're gonna stay
If you don't want our love to live.
It's no use keeping you around
If you don't want me all the way
There's somebody new who can be found
And I'll find her someday
And she will be everything
All the love she has she'll want to give
It's no use saying you're gonna stay
If you don't want our love to live.
If you don't, oh I'd love to leave
If you don't, oh I'd love to leave
Oh I should be good to you but I can't cause before
I was really true to you but you only hurt me more
[Repeat 1st verse]

"Jack Tarr The Sailor"

"Jack Tarr The Sailor"

When first I came to Liverpool I went upon the spree
Me money at last I spent it fast got drunk as drunk could be
And when my money was all gone it was then that I wanted more
But a man must be blind to make up his mind to go to sea once more

I spent the night with Angeline to drunk to roll in bed
Me watch it was new and my money was too
And the morning with them she fled
And as I roamed the streets of
Bath the whores they all would roar
There goes Jarr Tarr the poor sailor
He must go to sea once more
As I walking down the street I ran into Rapper Brown
I asked him for to take me in and he looked at me with a frown
He said last time you was on board with me you job no score
But I'll take your advance and I'll give you the chance
And I'll send you to sea once more
They shipped me aboard of a whaling ship bound for the Artic Sea
Where the cold winds blow thru the frost and the snow
Jamaica rum would freeze
A'las I had no luck with my gear for I left my money ashore
It was then that I wished that I was there safe with the girl's ashore

Come all ye boat seafaring lads who listen to my song
And when you come off them long trip pray that you don't go wrong
Take my advice drink no strong drink don't go sleeping with no whores
But get married lads and have all night in and go to to sea no more

"Jamaica Say You Will"

"Jamaica Say You Will"

Jamaica was the lovely one, I played her well
As we lay in the tall grass where the shadows fell
Hiding from the children so they would not tell
We would stay there 'till her sister rang the evening bell

Jamaica, say you will
Help me find a way to fill these empty hours
Say you will come again tomorrow

The daughter of a captain on the rolling seas
She would stare across the water from the trees
Last time he was home he held her on his knees
And said the next time they would sail away just where they pleased

Jamaica, say you will
Help me find a way to fill these lifeless sails
And stay until my ships can find the sea

Jamaica was a sweet young one, I loved her true
She was a comfort and a mercy through and through
Hiding from this world together, next thing I knew
We had brought her things down to the bay -- what could I do

Jamaica, say you will
Help me find a way to fill these sails
And we will sail until our waters have run dry
