Joe Ferguson forever Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 I wished I was smarter I wished I was stronger I wished I loved Jesus The way my wife does I wish it had been easier Instead of any longer I wished I could have stood where you would have been proud But that won't happen now That won't happen now There's a whole lot of singing, it's never gonna be heard Disappearing every day without so much as a word somehow Think I broke the wings off that little songbird She's never gonna fly to the top of the world right now Top of the world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwater10 Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Levon wears his war wound like a crown He calls his child Jesus 'Cause he likes the name And he sends him to the finest school in town  Levon, Levon likes his money He makes a lot, they say Spends his days counting In a garage by the motorway  He was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas Day When the New York Times said, "God is dead And the war's begun" Oh, Alvin Tostig has a son today  And he shall be Levon And he shall be a good man And he shall be Levon In tradition with the family plan And he shall be Levon And he shall be a good man He shall be Levon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muppy Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Scarecrow on a wooden cross blackbird in the barn Four hundred empty acres that used to be my farm I grew up like my daddy did my grandpa cleared this land When I was five I walked the fence while grandpa held my hand  Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow This land fed a nation this land made me proud And son I'm just sorry theres no legacy for you now Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow Rain on the scarecrow blood on the plow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwater10 Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 When are you gonna come down? When are you going to land? I should have stayed on the farm I should have listened to my old man  You know you can't hold me forever I didn't sign up with you I'm not a present for your friends to open This boy's too young to be singing The blues, ah, ah  So goodbye yellow brick road Where the dogs of society howl You can't plant me in your penthouse I'm going back to my plough  Back to the howling old owl in the woods Hunting the horny back toad Oh, I've finally decided my future lies Beyond the yellow brick road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Ferguson forever Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 So your home town's bringing you down Are you drowning in the small talk and the chatter? Are you gonna step into line like your daddy done Punching the time and climbing life's long ladder? You've been howling at the moon like a slack-jawed fool And breaking every rule they can throw on But one of these days, it's gonna be right soon You'll find your legs and go and stay gone Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow Young man gonna make a stand You beg, steal, you borrow You beg, you steal, you borrow Well, all the friends that you knew in school They used to be so cool, now they just bore you Well, look at 'em now, already pulling the plow So quick to take to grain, like some old mule Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow Young man gonna make a stand You beg, steal, you borrow You beg, you steal, you borrow Dreaming of the day you're gonna pack your bags Put the miles away Oh, just grab your girl and go where no one knows you What will all the old folks say?

cwater10 Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 A man decides after seventy years That what he goes there for, is to unlock the door While those around him criticize and sleep And through a fractal on a breaking wall I see you my friend, and touch your face again Miracles will happen as we trip  But we're never gonna survive, unless We get a little crazy No we're never gonna survive, unless We are a little crazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Gideon come up with his eyes on the floor Said "You ain't got a hinge, you can't close the door." Moses stood up a full six foot ten Said "You can't close the door when the wall's caved in." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
