UM WAH, UM WOH
There's a reason we're all happy
Laugh and singing, dance all day
He's got power, healing finger
Listen to him, hear what he say
The blind amongst us can't see
The deaf amongst us can't hear
The dumb amongst us can't speak
The healer looks after the weak
So bring out your dead - Nobody's died
That's not what I said - You're dead inside, inside
Don't suffer in silence, now
Don't suffer in silence, now
He say
Um wah, um woh, um wah, um who, um wah, um woh, woh
Um wah, um wah, um wah, um woh
We say
Um wah, um woh, um wah, um who, um wah, um woh, woh
Um wah, um wah, um wah, um woh
Um wah, um woh, um wah, um who, um wah, um woh, woh
Um wah, um wah, um wah, um woh
Um wah, um woh, um wah, um who, um wah, um woh, woh
Um wah, um wah, um wah, um woh
Ahhh...
Um wah, um woh, um wah, um who, um wah, um woh, woh
Um wah, um wah, um wah, um woh

TODAY
If I turned upon you
And I make it look easy
Today, today, today
She smiles and keeps me hungry
Today, today, today
She can look upon my face and not see me
Today, today, today
And dry my eyes completely
Today, today, today
Let me be
For there is time enough
To raise an eyebrow
To raise your eye
To mine, ooh, ooh
You feel the same way too
And I am drawn
Away from you
It's not so easy to explain away
It takes a foolish man to try
I knew as soon as
I put pen to paper
I knew as much somehow
So show me
It's better by far and away
And I'll show you that someday
Is a very important day

YOU DIDN'T LIKE IT BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T THINK OF IT
You can't keep a good man down
No you can't keep a good man down
In the morning when you wake up
He'll be there before you rise
And you'll wonder what he's doin'
Pretty soon you'll realise that
You can't keep a good man down
No you can't keep a good man down
You may run, you may hide
You can mess him up inside
You can rack his body with pain
And he'll come on back again
'Cause you can't keep a good man down
No you can't keep a good man down
Take me away
It's just about time to hit the road
And, say, you gotta believe in something
It's easy to see
My God, it's fading away
So pick up your bible and pray for me
I'm all alone in the darkness
But my eyes are open wide
I can't see nothing
And I don't know why
The night is over
The day has just begun
The night is over and done
Take me away
It's just about time to hit the road
And, say, I've gotta believe in someone
Take me away
It's just about time to hit the road
And, say, I've gotta believe in something

FLY AWAY
Need I remind my eyes to see
My hand to touch my mouth
Away I go like Ivanhoe
With no surprises up my sleeve
Oh
And all the time to understand
Is all I ask of you
Away the wind
Where she belongs
And oh she longs to fly
To fly, to fly away
All along the union line
See the travellin' tales
She's left behind
In her folio
They will never, ever read
All her pictures gone to seed
Oh, oh, oh
Oh
Won't you take me down my love
Down beyond the land I am thinking of
I hear a voice against the wind
And oh I long to fly
To fly, to fly away

Menu

RUN BABY RUN
Give me a bottle, give me a glass
I'm out on the border
Rollin'
Rollin' in the burning grass
She's in the city, I'm in the sticks
Working the country
Drinkin'
Hittin' the bottle for kicks
Woh, run baby, run baby, run run run
Hitch up your skirts and fly
Fly baby, fly baby, get up and fly
You're the only one who gives me satisfaction
Woke up on Monday
Out of my head
Got me a letter
Saying my baby's comin'
Comin'
Everything will be alright, alright
Now we're together
Everything's fine
I've given up whiskey
Drinkin'
'N' everybody's drinkin' wine
Drink my wine now...
Oh wine, wine, yeah, everybody's drinkin' wine
C'mon wine, drink my wine...
Gonna drink my wine, my wine, wine
Everybody's drinkin' wine, my wine, my wine
Oh everybody's drinkin' my wine

THE LOSER
What am I doin' here?
What is this all about?
You're takin' me for a ride
Now I've found you out
You never let me have my way with you
You come on strong, when you been there long
Everything I do just works out wrong
Works out wrong, works out wrong
Works out wrong, works out wrong
I'm going crazy
With my love for you
And now you're leaving me
I don't know what to do
I'm going crazy, baby
Now you've let me down
You come on strong, but it don't last long
Why in the hell is another woman like you
Walkin' like you, walkin' like you
Walkin' like you, walkin' like you
I'm a loser, I'm a fool in love
I'm a loser
What was I thinkin' of?
He's a loser, he's a fool in love
I've tried to make a decent life for you
Then all you gave me is the heel of your shoe
When all in all I'm just a fool in love
Come on strong, but it didn't last long
Everything I do just turns out wrong
Turns out wrong, turns out wrong
Turns out wrong, turns out wrong
I'm a loser, I'm a fool in love
He's a loser, he's a fool in love
I'm a loser, I'm a fool in love
He's a loser, he's a fool in love
I'm a loser, I'm a fool in love
He's a loser, he's a fool in love
I'm a loser, I'm a fool in love
He's a loser, he's a fool in love
I'm a loser, I'm a fool in love

HOW MANY TIMES
How many times must I sing the same line
How many times must I sing the same line
The same line
How many times must I walk a straight line
How many times must I walk a straight line
A straight line, a straight line
Where will I come when my walking is done
Where will I come when my walking is done
Is done

DESPERATE DAN
Yeah, I'm a desperate man
I'm a desperate man
I'm almost as desperate as Desperate Dan
Oh my, I ain't like Popeye
I don't need a can of spinach to make me high
Yeah, I'm a desperate man
I'm a desperate man
I'm almost as desperate as Desperate Dan
Oh fie, I eats cow pie
It makes me high when I eats cow pie
I'm a desperate
Well, I'm a desperate man
I'm a desperate man
I'm almost as desperate as Desperate Dan
Oh my, love to see you fly
I get so high, I'm on cow pie

TAKE ME BACK
Take me back
Let me be
I've been away too long
But still indulge myself in flights of fancy
Fancy me
Trouble free
Up against the wall
But still inclined to thumb my nose at reason
I'll get no change from time I'm spending
Wasting all my life
Surely, the never ending life is not for me
But oh to see
You care about my whereabouts
You care about my whereabouts
Time in hand, hand in glove
I leave my borrowed friends
For I was never meant to be a pilgrim
Oh take me back to ol' Virginia
Lay me on my bed of leaves
Show me the love that's in ya
Yes you're part of my marriage
My carriage awaits you
Put your hand in my pocket
And dance
Put your hand in my pocket
And dance
But if I'd had a hand in past defence
I'd know I'd make the most of friendship
Or I would never come back home

LADY SADIE
See the lovely
Older daughter
Of the master of the manor
From the ramparts
She would holler
You can have me for one dollar
Lady Sadie, Lady Sadie
Lady Sadie, she ain't no lady
She's a???
Sexy sight
She was the main attraction
People came from miles around
To get a piece of the action
Lady Sadie, Lady Sadie
Lady Sadie, she ain't no lady
Freaks and jugglers
Touring strippers
Came to watch her matinees
They opened Sunday through 'til Friday
Day of resting, Saturday
Lady Sadie, Lady Sadie
Lady Sadie, she ain't no lady
Caught the master of the manor
Caught them humping in the hay
In the brambles with the gardener
They been humpin' back all day
Lady Sadie, Lady Sadie
Lady Sadie, she ain't no lady
Always shopping with his camera
Sold the pictures to the Crown
Made a fortune with his studies of the aristocracy
Lady Sadie, Lady Sadie
Lady Sadie, she ain't no lady
Lady Sadie, Lady Sadie
Lady Sadie, she ain't no lady
Lady Sadie, Lady Sadie
Lady Sadie, she ain't no lady
Lady Sadie, Lady Sadie
Lady Sadie, she ain't no lady
Lady Sadie, Lady Sadie
Lady Sadie, she ain't no lady
Lady Sadie, Lady Sadie
Lady Sadie, she ain't no lady

ALL GOD'S CHILDREN
Down by the bay
Love while you may
All God's children
Love while they may
All God's children
Love while they may
Down by the bay
Love while you may
All God's children
Love while they may
Hey California
The others might sing along
If only they knew the tune
They'd sing along, they'd sing along
Down by the bay
Love while you may
All God's children
Love while they may
Hey California
California

SUITE FA
1st Movement - On My Way

Ooh wee I'm on my way
On my way
Ooh wee I'm so free
I'm on my way
Ooh wee the time is right
It's here to stay
Ooh wee I'm so free
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I believe
That time it cannot weigh me down
If I should take my life
To another town
Where I will find
That my simple thoughts go by
Never stop to say hello
Or I may be thought too slow
There's no point in taking you with me
There's nothing special that you can do
To help me on my way
Ooh wee I'm on my way
On my way
Ooh wee I'm so free
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
See
Don't you see
Don't you see why
Don't you see my lover
See
Don't you see
Don't you see why
We don't see
Eye to eye
Though you know me well
Please when I die
Let my soul to sell

2nd Movement - Indecision
Down on the borderline
You won't catch me wasting my time
I've left a lot behind me
I've got a lot to lose
But who's to know
I'll tell the world
What it's been like
???
What it's like
Don't you know you're gettin' older
Don't look back across your shoulder
The wind is blowing colder
And it might just blow you over
Roll another cigarette
Help your mind forget
I don't care
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
If my words are going through ya
But the meanings gettin' to ya
Well then glory hallelujah
I'll be glad to say I knew ya
Roll another cigarette
Help your mind forget
I don't care
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

3rd Movement - The Return
You give me your conversation
On my way back home
About the celebration
When I get back home
??? the congregation
On my way back home
I'll give you my invitation
When I get back home
There'll be a celebration
When we get back home
I'll need my fornication
When we get back home
You'll send out the invitations
When we get back home
Drawn up the congregation
When we get back home
They'll see a celebration
When I get back home
You give me your conversation
On my way back home
