"Bridge"

"Bridge"

The bridge, we'll build it now
It may take a lot of time
And it maybe lonely but
Ooh baby, ooh baby.

The bridge was falling down
And that took a lot of lies
And it made me lonely
Ooh baby, ooh baby.

The bridge was falling.
The bridge was falling.
The bridge was falling.

One day, when you talked to me
I saw myself again
And it made me love you.
Ooh baby, ooh baby.

And love came running down
Like a river on your skin
And you let me in.
Ooh babe, ooh babe.

You let me in
You let me in
You let me in

The bridge, we'll build it now
It may take a lot of time.

"Bright Sunny Day"

"Bright Sunny Day"

If you wake up in the morning light
Something doesn't seem
or know is right
Lay back and let your feeling show
Come on and let the people know
Oh, that's the price that you pay
Oh, that's the price that you pay.

Just ?? money
Your baby ??
??
Now come on boys,??
Oh, that's the price that you pay
Oh, that's the price that you pay.

Oh, that's the price that you pay
Oh, that's the price that you pay.

Bad news is just an excuse
Get down and
let yourself keep loose
Go on and live for tomorrow
So much spent today in sorrow
Oh, that's the price that you pay
Oh, that's the price that you pay.

"Bringin' Down Dinner"

"Bringin' Down Dinner"

The evening fog was rolling in
It was getting hard to see
The old white car edged down the road
Headed for the double e

She was bringin' down dinner for grandpa
It was crawlin' with vitamins
And tender as a mother's love
When she saw the tv vans

The side door was open
There were three tvs
Grandpa's face was on every one
He was talkin' to a woman with a microphone
She was sexy and her hair was all done

Sun green came out and met grandma then
"my, you're such a beautiful girl
Mother earth needs more like you
You should go out now and see the world

What's grandpa doin' on tv?
I got his dinner in the car
All these vans have blocked our road
But we can carry it, it's not too far"

"Broken Arrow"

"Broken Arrow"

The lights turned on
and the curtain fell down,
And when it was over
it felt like a dream,
They stood at the stage door
and begged for a scream,
The agents had paid
for the black limousine
That waited outside in the rain.
Did you see them,
did you see them?
Did you see them in the river?
They were there to wave to you.
Could you tell that
the empty quivered,
Brown skinned Indian on the banks
That were crowded and narrow,
Held a broken arrow?

Eighteen years of American dream,
He saw that his brother
had sworn on the wall.
He hung up his eyelids
and ran down the hall,
His mother had told him
a trip was a fall,
And don't mention babies at all.
Did you see him, did you see him?
Did you see him in the river?
He were there to wave to you.
Could you tell that
the empty quivered,
Brown skinned Indian on the banks
That were crowded and narrow,
Held a broken arrow?

The streets were lined
for the wedding parade,
The Queen wore the white gloves,
the county of song,
The black covered caisson
her horses had drawn
Protected her King
from the sun rays of dawn.
They married for peace
and were gone.
Did you see them,
did you see them?
Did you see them in the river?
They were there to wave to you.
Could you tell that
the empty quivered,
Brown skinned Indian on the banks
That were crowded and narrow,
Held a broken arrow?

"Buffalo Springfield Again"

"Buffalo Springfield Again"

Used to play
in a rock 'n' roll band,
But they broke up.
We were young and we were wild,
It ate us up.
Now I'm not saying
who was right or wrong.

Looking out on a big green lawn,
Girls and boys
Playing in the afternoon sun,
Life's a joy
I heard an old song
playing on the radio.

Buffalo Springfield again.

I'd like to see those guys again,
And give it a shot.
Maybe now we can show the world,
What we've got.
But I'd just like to play
for the fun we had.

Buffalo Springfield again.
Buffalo Springfield again.

"Burned"

"Burned"

Been burned
and with both feet
on the ground,
I've learned
that it's painful
comin' down.
No use runnin' away,
and there's no time
left to stay.
Now I'm finding out
that it's so confusin',
No time left
and I know I'm losin'.

Flashed
and I think
I'm fallin' down,
Crashed,
and my ears
can't hear a sound.
No use runnin' away,
and there's no time
left to stay.
Now I'm finding out
that it's so confusin',
No time left
and I know I'm losin'.

Now I'm finding out
that it's so confusin',
No time left
and I know I'm losin'.

Burned
and with both feet
on the ground.
I've learned

comin' down.
No use runnin' away,
and there's no time

that it's so confusin',
No time left
and I know I'm losin'.

"California Sunset"

"California Sunset"

I remember long ago
How I wondered where I'd go
While the blizzards,
cold wind and snow
Pounded outside my window.

California sunset
Going down in the West
All the colors in the sky
Kiss another day goodbye.

Land of beauty,
space and light
Land of promise,
land of might
You're my home now
and it's true
California, here's to you.

California sunset
Going down in the West
All the colors in the sky
Kiss another day goodbye.

California sunset
Going down in the West
All the colors in the sky
Kiss another day goodbye.

The golden state!

"Campaigner"

"Campaigner"

I am a lonely visitor.
I came to late to cause a stir,
Though I campaigned all my life
towards that goal.
I hardly slept the night you wept
Our secret's safe and still well kept
Where even Richard Nixon has got soul.
Even Richard Nixon has got
Soul.

Traffic cops are all color blind.
People steal from their own kind.
Evening comes to early for a stroll.
Down neon streets the streaker streaks.
The speaker speaks,
but the truth still leaks,
Where even Richard Nixon has got soul.
Even Richard Nixon has got it,
Soul.

The podium rocks in the crowded waves.
The speaker talks of the beautiful saves
That went down long before
he played this role
For the hotel queens and the magazines,
Test tube genes and slot machines
Where even Richard Nixon got soul.
Even Richard Nixon has got it,
Soul.

Hospitals have made him cry,
But there's always a free way in his eye,
Though his beach just got
too crowded for his stroll.
Roads stretch out like healthy veins,
And wild gift horses strain the reins,
Where even Richard Nixon has got soul.
Even Richard Nixon has got
Soul.

I am a lonely visitor.
I came to late to cause a stir,
Though I campaigned all my life
towards that goal.

"Can't Believe Your Lyin'"

"Can't Believe Your Lyin'"

Daylight breaks and I go to bed
And I find myself worryin'
about things you said
Oh honey,
I can't believe your lyin'
But you tell me things
Things I know aren't true.

You have changed my life
In too many ways.

Well, I lost my job
thinkin' about you
Now there's another man
workin' in my place
Oh honey,
I can't believe your lyin'
But you tell me things
Things I know aren't true.

You have changed my life
In too many ways.

You have changed my life
In too many ways.

Well, my money's gone
and so are you
My friends all tell me
I have been a fool
Oh honey,
I can't believe your lyin'
But you tell me things
Things I know aren't true.

You have changed my life
In too many ways.

"Captain Kennedy"

"Captain Kennedy"

I am a young mariner headed to war
I'm thinkin' 'bout my family
and what it was for
There's water on the wood
and the sails feel good
And when I get to shore
I hope that I can kill good.

My father was a sailor
named Captain Kennedy
He lost his wooden schooner
to the Germans on the sea
Exploded on the water
for everyone to see
And humiliate that American
Captain Kennedy.

I saw him in Nassau in 1971
His strength was failin'
but he still ran a run
He worked 'til his fingers
wore to the bone
To buy that wooden schooner
and sail on his own.

He was known in the islands
as hundred foot iron
That steel hull freighter
was passin' its time
And time flew by faster
with life on the sea
And the days grew shorter
for Captain Kennedy.

I am a young mariner headed to war
I'm thinkin' 'bout my family
and what it was for
There's water on the wood
and the sails feel good
And when I get to shore
I hope that I can kill good.
