01:01In the rain-swept carnival, standing, waiting for a crowd.
01:11The singer tries a tune, he hopes the guitar will be loud.
01:20Colored lightbulbs, dancing, creaking in the wind,
01:28around the ferris wheel, around the ferris wheel.
01:36In my life there is a girl, golden laughter in her eyes.
01:45The freedom of the world, being chased by all the guys.
01:55Though I tried to make her say she was mine,
02:02I know better now, I know better now.
02:14I know better now, I know better now.
02:44I know better now, I know better now.
03:14I know better now, I know better now.
03:44I know better now, I know better now.
04:14A lifetime full of changes, never knowing just what the next one is.
04:37New lines, different faces, new time around, it's all changed again.
04:50Oh my darling treats me well, I'm a little bit afraid.
04:59The people crowding round, they just add to my dismay.
05:09Just to know that you are standing by my side, makes it better now, better now.
05:24In the rain swept carnival, standing waiting for a crowd.
05:33Singer tries a tune, hopes the guitar will be loud.
05:42Colored lightbulbs, dancing, creaking in the wind,
05:48round the ferris wheel, round the ferris wheel.
06:02The wind songs, oh the wind songs, they roll along in the windstorm.
06:14The wind songs, oh the wind songs, they roll along in the windstorm.
06:26The wind songs, oh the wind songs, they roll along in the windstorm.
06:43The wind songs, oh the wind songs, they roll along in the windstorm.
07:13The wind songs, oh the wind songs, they roll along in the windstorm.
07:24The wind songs, oh the wind songs, they roll along in the windstorm.
07:34Young man he sits and writes in the moonlight, wishes that he could get it right.
07:55Sometimes it makes him sad but it's alright, if he's leaving tonight.
08:07And all the songs he'll ever write will be wind songs, which shall be played upon the air.
08:19And all the songs he'll ever sing will be wind songs, sung to anyone who's there.
09:19Tides of the breeze just keep rolling along, me and my sweet one laid back in the sun.
09:40Fine songs on the radio, it's a lazy day.
09:51Look in the sky and there I can see, dandy lines just rolling free.
10:02Shining bright in the moonday sun, it's a lazy day.
10:13Ooh, that water, it sure looks nice.
10:23Ooh, sweet wine, it's as cold as ice.
10:36Sing something simple now and then, you can make love or talk to a friend.
10:48Settle down, relax for a while, it's a lazy day.
10:59Tides of the breeze just keep rolling along, me and my sweet one laid back in the sun.
11:10Fine songs on the radio, it's a lazy day.
11:21Ooh, that water, it sure looks nice.
11:31Ooh, sweet wine, it's as cold as ice.
11:44Ooh, that water, it sure looks nice.
11:54Ooh, sweet wine, it's as cold as ice.
12:06Ooh, that water, it sure looks nice.
12:15Ooh, sweet wine, it's as cold as ice.
12:28Ooh, that water, it sure looks nice.
12:39Ooh, sweet wine, it's as cold as ice.
12:51Ooh, that water, it sure looks nice.
13:01Ooh, sweet wine, it's as cold as ice.
13:13Ooh, that water.
13:31Take Off
13:46Pick up a pebble, toss it in the air, yeah, just missed your sister Sue.
13:53She got mad and ran and told your daddy, and he came down to get you.
14:00Dear old daddy was a real big man, he was nearly six foot five.
14:07He don't take to no fifteen year old boy who's talking jive, so you say,
14:14No fair papa, please don't be unkind.
14:20Been out all day in the burning sun, sipping on my apple wine.
14:26The poor world's looking for Rosie, and I don't give a damn.
14:33If you want some of my apple wine, catch me if you can.
14:57Jump up and ran through a field of stubble, where the bells of Hayhide ring.
15:04Down through the river with the weeping willows, and then you jump right in.
15:11Float on your back with a bottle of wine, and then you jump right in.
15:18Jump up and ran through a field of stubble, where the bells of Hayhide ring.
15:26You roll on your belly and you sing into the sun.
15:31Papa can't swim and just has to grin, cause he knows his race is wrong, and you say,
15:38No fair papa, please don't be unkind.
15:44Been out all day in the burning sun, sipping on my apple wine.
15:50And the whole world's a-lookin' for rose, yeah
15:54And I don't give a damn
15:57If you want some of my apple wine
16:01Catch me if you can
16:03Ain't no fair for hoppers
16:07These don't be on time
16:10Been out all day in the burnin' sun
16:14Sippin' on my apple wine
16:16And the whole world's a-lookin' for rose, yeah
16:20And I don't give a damn
16:23If you want some of my apple wine
16:27Catch me if you can
16:30If you want some of my apple wine
16:34Catch me if you can
16:36Catch me if you can
16:47Hideout
17:00Hideout
17:02How's your lonely life?
17:06Seems to me your only grief
17:09Is gonna bring you strife
17:12They're comin' out to get you
17:16Rack your brain, put you down
17:19Crack you down and wrap you up
17:22Put you in with a pound of your hound
17:27Smilin'
17:30Laughin' all the while
17:34Even though you're down and out
17:37Boy, I like your style
17:40They're talkin' to you
17:44And I know from day to day
17:47That if your bitch has gone
17:50Isn't that a shame, such a shame
17:55But I'm glad to know

18:20New day
18:22The things to be done
18:26Runnin' round happily
18:28In the brand new sun
18:32Waiting to the corner

20:34BAD DOG!
20:36DOG!
20:38BAD DOG!
20:40BAD DOG!
21:04BAD DOG!
21:26Riding across the mountain high
21:33Two city cowboys reaching for the sky
21:40Can't quite believe the things they see
21:45Take much delight in
21:49Just being free
21:54As they come to rockin' round the bend
22:01One man is turning, saying to his friend
22:08Say man, you're moving way too fast
22:13Just take it easy
22:17We'll make it last
22:22By a thousand feet, but all I see
22:29Knowing this thing has got the best of me
22:36Can't quite control the way I go
22:41Once more I'll take time
22:45To kiss the snow
22:49By a trail through the sky
22:56Watch me sail, watch me fly
23:03And I sing as I run and fly
23:12Watch a little bird fly
23:16Watch a little bird fly
23:46Standing on top of windy hills
24:05Spreading my wings so I could feel the thrill
24:13To climb upon the natural high
24:18You get lost sailing through the sky
24:26You see my old friend over there
24:33Watch as the wind goes rushing through his hair
24:40Watch as the light shines in his eyes
24:45My, my, my, my friend
24:48It's your failed night
24:52By a trail through the sky
24:59Watch me sail, watch me fly
25:06And I sing as I run and fly
25:16Watch a little bird fly
25:19Watch a little bird fly
25:34La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
25:41La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
25:47La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

27:02La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
27:09La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
27:14Watch the sun dance upon the dust I made
27:23Been awake near the whole night through
27:29Now the sun starts its run, its race across the sky
27:38And I shuffle, shuffle on my way
27:44Sunday news, Sunday bread and marmalade
27:53And the man has to mow his lawn
27:59While the leaves on the trees go dancing in the breeze
28:13Singing song, gentle and fine
28:22Moldy Sunday, lying dying for sleep
28:29Oh, I can feel the pain
28:34Moldy Sunday, suffering from bruise
28:43Which I swear I won't touch again
28:50Now the world comes awake in a Sunday way
28:58Vowel hats go to church to pray
29:05Hear my bloody eyes easing through the day
29:13Making songs, music and rhymes
29:19Sunday news, Sunday bread and marmalade
29:28Still man has to mow his lawn
29:34It doesn't stop soon, we'll send him to the moon
29:42With a ticket marked for one way
29:53Moldy Sunday, lying dying for sleep
30:01Oh, I can feel the pain
30:05I can feel the pain
30:11Moldy Sunday, suffering from bruise
30:19Which I swear I won't touch again
30:26No, no, not ever
30:47Happy New Year
31:01Happiness is sitting in the sun
31:08Contemplating, celebrating all your days' work done
31:15And all that you're concerned about is how to get some fun
31:22And to get you on, lonely lady
31:29On my right there sits an evil man
31:36I've often wondered if he does it all run to a plan
31:43Anyway, girl, could I say I'll do the best I can
31:50Will you make me your man, lonely lady?
31:57Girl, I thought the whole thing over
32:01And I'm gonna have to come on older
32:05What have I to lose if you turn and walk away?
32:12Leaving me to start all over
32:16Looking for a friendly shoulder
32:19What am I to do, lovely lady?
32:24Attitudes, well, I've quite a few
32:32Some concerning politics and some concerning you
32:39Anyway, girl, could I say I'm very fond of you
32:46I think that you are too, lovely lady
32:53Girl, I thought the whole thing over
32:57And I'm gonna have to come on older
33:01What have I to lose if you turn and walk away?
33:07Leaving me to start all over
33:11Looking for a friendly shoulder
33:15What am I to do, and does it matter anyway?
33:21How can I go to Saturday night with you even though I need you?
33:28Can I even take your word for anything you say?
33:35Just because it's Saturday night
33:39Can I be sure it's gonna work out right?
33:42Can I be sure enough about it to turn around and say?
33:49Oh, on a Saturday night
33:52There ain't nothing you can do
33:54That won't turn out right
33:56There ain't nothing you can do
33:58It's gonna turn out anyway
34:03Oh, on a Saturday night
34:06There ain't nothing you can do
34:08That won't turn out right
34:10There ain't nothing you can do
34:12It's gonna turn out anyway
34:19She stepped up, loudly cussing
34:23Crazy in the eyes
34:26Smiling, drunken, walking strange
34:30Back slapping at her thighs
34:33I shivered in her eyes
34:37She stepped up, loudly cussing
34:41Crazy in the eyes
34:44Smiling, drunken, walking strange
34:46I shivered and turned my head away
34:52Staring at the drain
34:59Her shoes were scratched and broken
35:03Her clothes she'd long outgrown
35:06She lurched into the taxi rank
35:10I guess she was going home
35:12I shivered again
35:16Staring at the drain
35:19I wish she would leave us alone
35:26Really, woman
35:29Well, will you sleep tonight?
35:32And when you're to sleep
35:34Will your dreams be dreams?
35:36But no, all right
35:39And who's going to care?
35:42Will you never wake up?
35:45No matter what
35:48Will you ever wake up?
35:51Crazy woman
36:08guitar solo
36:30She said she was a hard lady
36:34I'll do it if you pay
36:36And she offered her service to a Catholic priest
36:40Who blushed and turned away
36:43The taxis came
36:46And the taxis went
36:49Till only her and I remained
36:56Then a man went by with a look in his eye
37:00That chilled me to the bone
37:02He turned around and came back again
37:06He offered to take her home
37:09His collar turned up
37:12His eyes turned down
37:15He drove that girl away
37:22Crazy woman
37:25Well, will you sleep tonight?
37:28And when you're to sleep
37:29Will your dreams be dreams?
37:32But no, all right
37:35And who's going to care?
37:38Will you never wake up?
37:41No matter what
37:44Will you ever wake up?
37:47Crazy woman

40:05piano solo
40:17piano solo
40:32Some gather roses, pretty women
40:41On the chocolate boxes
40:46Smiling sweetly, so completely
40:53Right in every way
40:59Some, not so perfect
41:06Never being what they're meant to be
41:13A bit like me, but happily come to
41:22Most every way
41:26But I'll be back
41:33Bet you lies, I'll be back
41:41I'll be back
41:47Bet you lies, I'll be back
41:55The sun rises slowly
42:02Chasing sleep from the dreaming eyes
42:09So dreams and wishes, fantasies
42:16May all be realized
42:23Something has happened, something strange
42:33I can't explain it, who's to blame
42:40It's all the same, this time belongs to you
42:50But I'll be back
42:57Bet you lies, I'll be back
43:04I'll be back
43:11Bet you lies, I'll be back
43:19I'll be back
