I never learned to spell,
At least not well.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
I never learned to count,
A great amount.
But my busy mind is burning to use what learning I’ve got,
I won’t waste any time,
I’ll strike while the iron is hot.
If they asked me, I could write… Read More
Refrain:
Wade in the Water
Wade in the Water
Children wade in the Water,God’s gonna trouble the Water
Who’s that young girl dressed in red

It’s leaving time again
I’m headed out
With all my friends
It’s a roll of the dice
I’ve never thought twice
About the way
I’ve been spending my time

Daddy’s going on the booze
Mother used to cut my hair
And sister… Read More
The weather man he looks confused
Shakes his fist at the sky like you used to do

The winter here don’t believe in God
The bitter… Read More

No eternal reward will forgive us now
For wasting the dawn.
Back in those days everything was simpler and more confused
One summer night, going to the pier
I ran into two young girls
The blonde one was called Freedom
The dark one,… Read More
