Now I wish I was a dog
Lazin' about all day
With the barks so loud and fierce
To keep the cats away
But a man's a man
And a dog's a slave
So man i would rather be

Now I wish I was a book
Upon a dusted shelf
With a millions of words to read
Lord but I can

I don't believe I've seen
a woman like you anywhere.
And I must admit that I can't see
to making you into a dream.
But if I had a magical wonder word,
I'd send a dove to catch your love
and I send a blackbird to steal your heart.

But a broken heart won't go,

I've been seeing you
In this house of mine
Got your arms away
From my strange disguise
All the things that you believe
Are still in me
As though you please

And they shimmer
On the ends of my memories
I could feel your ghost
In the breeze

I'm tellin

I listen to the words that whisper in my ear
I've heard the words of anger, i know the words of fear
But are whispered in the shadows, the only word of freedom

Anti-apartheid is all that i hear

To separate the colours and break the rainbow sign
To ask the finest painter t

One morning fair I took the air
That hung about black waterside
T'was a gazing path all around it
And the Irish that I spied

All through the fog, the heart of the night
We lay in sport and at play
Till this young man arose and gathered his clothes
Singing 'Fair thee

One morning fair I took he air Down by blackwater side 'Twas gazing all al around me The Irish lad I spied All through the fore part of the night We lay in sport and play Till this young man arose an

Catch a boat to England, baby,
Maybe to Spain,
Wherever I have gone,
Wherever I've been and gone,
Wherever I have gone
The blues have run the game.
Send out for whisky, baby,
Send out for gin,
Me and room service, honey,
Me and room service, babe,
Me and r

On a bright sunny morning
In downtown New York
People are rushing to get to their work
Unaware as the events of the day unfold
Gonna haunt them for the rest of their lives
For high overhead there's a mighty explosion
A fireball on the ninetieth floor
For like a cruise

Last night as I lay sleeping, a dream it came to me
I thought I heard a piper play the sweetest melody
People gathered round a-dancing and singing so merrily
They're all singing and dancing, Caledonia ever free
Singing and dancing, Caledonia ever free

From the busy heart of

My old hen, she's a good ol' hen
She lays eggs for the railroad men
Sometimes eight and sometimes ten
That's enough for the railroad men

Chorus
Cluck ol' hen cluck when I tell you
Cluck ol' hen or I'm gonna sell you
Last time she cackled she cackled in the lot

Green are your eyes
In the morning, when you arise
Don't you be afraid to lie
By me, my love
Your father will not know

Love can be broken
Though no words are spoken
Don't you be afraid to lie
By me, my love
Your father will not know

Love be bold

Crimson moon
In the early morning
Blue black sky
Tell me why
If she loves me
My baby drives me wild
Like a little child
She's standing on the edge, she wants to learn to swim
She looks in the water but she won't dive in
Crimson moon
Tell me why

She's

Freedom fighters speak with your tongues
Sing with the might of the wind
In your lungs, do you hear me now?
My mama told me, papa said it too
Son, the world's divided and you know
Your cause is true, do you hear me now?

Can you see those mushrooms seed and burst

A troubled wind has chilled my heart
Killed our love right from the start
And visions of your face
Twist in my mind into knots of silken lace
A chance to win a hand so fair
Fades with night and a single prayer
Then a straw hat on her head
Brings morning dreams to alig

The Black Knight surveys all before him
His charger is thumping the ground
High on a hill the high Bishop looks down
From his men to the horses
Not a whisper of sound
They're all dressed for the battle
And their colours fly high
And flutter in the wind

The White

Like a high stepping pony strutting and prancing
Ah she's so full of life
Sparkling with tiny red roses
Let there be music to please her
Let it be sunbright to light up her day
Let the moon light her night
And fill her with deep silent sleepiness
If I were a small bir

Drawing water from the well,
spilling over on the grass,
walking homeward,
my heart is filled with pain,
woe -oh oh oh oh is me,
go your way my love,
go your way my love.

Drawing water from the well,
spilling over on the grass,
walking homeward,

Driving through the wind and rain
Got my baby beside me too
Baby, we're going home
Just me and you

I don't mind the drizzling rain
Inside it is warm and dry
Hey baby, we're going home
I'll kiss the blues bye-bye

See the raindrops dance on the highway

Green are your eyes
In the morning when you rise.
Don't you be afraid, my love,
To lie by me,
Your father will not know.

Love can be broken
Though no words are spoken.
Don't you be afraid to lie
By me my love,
Your father will not know.

Love, don't cry

Your love was like a child
upon a rockin' horse
The colour black who rides
Thro' a forest of dreams and laughs.
At the evils that cannot be seen.

Yet like the ageing of a child at play,
Your love is broken and fades away,
And borne in the wind are the seeds
