When that fat old sun in the sky is falling,Summer evening birds are calling.Summer’s thunder time of year,The sound of music in my ears.Distant bells,New mown grass smells so sweet.By the river holding hands,Roll me up and lay me down.And if you sit,Don’t make a sound.Pick your feet up off the ground.And if you hear […]

Sunlight bright upon my pillowLighter than an eiderdownWill she let the weeping willowWind his branches roundJulia dream, dreamboat queen, queen of all my dreamsEvery night I turn the light out Waiting for the velvet brideWill the scaly armadilloFind me where I’m hidingJulia dream, dreamboat queen, queen of all my dreamsWill the misty master break meWill […]
Jugband Blues
It’s awfully considerate of you to think of me hereAnd I’m much obliged to you for making it clearThat I’m not here.And I never knew we could be so thickAnd I never knew we could be so blueAnd I’m grateful that you threw away my old shoesAnd brought me here instead dressed in redAnd I’m […]
