"Gypsy Pilot"

"Gypsy Pilot"



When I was a young boy
My mama told me son
You gotta keep it together
You know you're the only one

So I tried to see the sunshine
And tried to feel the rain
But I just couldn't get it together
I was feelin' too much pain

So I got myself a guitar
When I was just a kid
I played rock and roll music
And I'm so glad I did

'Cause now I see the sunshine
And now I feel the rain
And I just want to keep it together
And hope you feel the same

Now I see the sunshine
And now I feel the rain
And I just want to keep it together
And hope you feel the same

Now I jump in my covered wagon
I'm movin' right along
I'm a full fledged gypsy pilot
I'm singin' you my song

And I try to see the sunshine
And I try to feel the rain
And I just want to keep it together
And I hope you feel the same

When they claim my body
They won't have much to say
Except that he lived a good life
He lived every day

And I know he saw the sunshine
And I know he felt the rain
And he loved everybody
And he hopes you'll do the same

"Gypsy Woman"

"Gypsy Woman"



Hey gypsy woman
Look in your crystal ball
And tell me where my baby's gone
Hey gypsy woman
Look in your crystal ball
And tell me if my baby's coming home

She left one night like the wind she was gone
I don't know why, but I know that I'm alone
If it was me that made her leave I wanna know
Just lead the way gypsy woman and I'll go

Hey gypsy woman
Look in your crystal ball
And tell me what my future will be
Hey gypsy woman
Look in your crystal ball
And tell me if you see her with me

She left one night like the wind she was gone
I don't know why, but I know that I'm alone
If it was me that made her leave I wanna know
Just lead the way gypsy woman and I'll go

Hey hey hey gypsy woman
Look in your crystal ball
And tell me what my future will be
Hey hey hey hey gypsy woman
Look in your crystal ball
And tell me if you see her with me
Hey hey hey hey gypsy woman

"Half Breed"

"Half Breed"



Your pappy was a traitor and your mammy was an Indian maid boy
Your pappy was a traitor and your mammy was an Indian maid boy
We know all about it and we don't want a half breed around boy
Tomorrow by sunrise, better be outta town boy

Half breed, they're hot on your trail boy
Half Breed but you'd better not run
Half breed you'd better get a gun boy
Better get a gun and stand boy
Better get a gun and stand

A man is a man as long as he can stand and think straight
A man is a man as long as he can stand and wait boy
So don't let 'em dog you, no don't let 'em no don't you let 'em boy
You're a human bein' and you're just as good as them boy

Half breed, they're hot on your trail boy
Half Breed but you'd better not run
Half breed you'd better get a gun boy
Better get a gun and stand boy
Better get a gun and stand

"Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?"

"Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?"



Have I told you lately that I love you?
Could I tell you once again somehow?
Have I told with all my heart and soul how I adore you?
Well darling I'm telling you now

Have I told you lately when I'm sleeping
Every dream I dream is you somehow?
Have I told you why the nights are long
When you're not with me?
Well darling I'm telling you now

My heart would break in two if I should lose you
I'm no good without you anyhow
And have I told you lately that I love you
Well darling I'm telling you now

My heart would break in two if I should lose you
I'm no good without you anyhow
And have I told you lately that I love you<
Well darling I'm telling you now

"Hello Mary Lou"

"Hello Mary Lou"



Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou, I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou, we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart

You passed me by one sunny day
Flashed those big brown eyes my way
And oo I wanted you forever more
Now I'm not one that gets around
Swear my feet stuck to the ground
And though I never did meet you before

I said, hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou, I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou, we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart

I saw your lips I heard your voice
Believe me I just had no choice
Wild horses couldn't make me stay away
I thought about a moonlit night
My arms about good an' tight
That's all I had to see for me to say

Hey, hey, hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou, I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou, we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Yes hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart

"Hello Mister Happiness"

"Hello Mister Happiness"



Hello mister happiness, goodbye misery
I've got a pretty girl to walk along with me
Hello mister happiness, what was your delay
I nearly gave up hopin' love would come my way

Hello mister happiness, goodbye lonely room
I'll let all the sunshine in, and shut out all the gloom
Hello mister happiness, my baby loves me too
And my baby and I are gonna go steady with you

I wonder where you've been so long
I've searched everywhere
But when my baby smiled
You were standing there

Well hello mister happiness, goodbye loneliness
Now that you're here with me, you're my best friend I guess
Hello mister happiness, tell me it's okay
And you'll be my best man on my wedding day

I wonder where you've been so long
And I've searched everywhere
But when my baby smiled
You were standing there

Well hello mister happiness, goodbye loneliness
Now that you're here with me, you're my best friend I guess
Hello mister happiness, tell me it's okay
And you'll be my best man on my wedding day

"Hello To The Wind (Bonjour Le Vent)"

"Hello To The Wind (Bonjour Le Vent)"



Hello, hello to the wind
Will you carry my song
Gently along as you sing

Hello, hello to the wind
You have my story to tell
Weaving your spell as you sing

Softly, listening to every word, anxious to please
Gently whispering all that you've heard to the trees

Hello, hello to the wind
Wish you'd take me along
And follow my song as you sing
As you sing, hello to the wind
Hello to the wind, hello to the wind
Hello to the wind

"Hello Walls"

"Hello Walls"



Hello walls
How'd things go for you today
Don't you miss her
Since she up and walked away

And I'll bet you dread to spend
Another lonely night with me
But lonely walls, I'll keep you company

Hello window
Well I see that you're still here
Aren't you lonely
Since our darling disappeared
Well look here, is that a teardrop
In the corner of your pane
Don't you try to tell me that it's rain

She went away
And left us all alone
The way she planned
Guess we'll have to learn to get along
Without her if we can

Hello ceiling
I'm gonna stare at you a while
You know I can't sleep
So won't you bear with me awhile
We must all stick together
Or else I'll lose my mind
I got a feelin'
She'll be gone a long, long time

If you're looking for a new love

Well here I am
Oh I'll hold you day and night
No I'll never let you out of my sight
If you're looking for a true love
Here I am

Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever, ever felt real blue
Does your heart need that someone
Who is kind, faithful and true

If you're looking for that someone
Here I am
If you're searching for an only one

Oh I've never shared a true love
And I've never, ever had a real love
