And the cradle will rock
Yes the cradle, cradle will rock
And I say rock on uh rock on
 
And when some local kid gets down
They try an' drum him outta town
They say, ya coulda least faked it boy, fake it, boy
At an early age he hits the street
Winds up tired with who he meets
An' he's unemployed

Rock the cradle of love
Rock the cradle of love
Sent from heaven above
That's right
To rock the cradle of love
Rock the cradle of love
Yeah cradle of love
That's me mama
I robbed the devil of love
All right
Cradle of love
If you tease me tonight
If you sleaze me all right
If you appease me tonight
And let me ease you
Cradle of love, all right, yeah owww

Don't ease, don't ease, don't ease me in
I've been all night long coming home, don't ease me in


I was standing on the corner, talking to Miss Brown
When I turned around, sweet mama, she was way across town
So I'm walking down the street, with a dollar in my hand
I've been looking for a woman, sweet mama, ain't got no man

 

The girl I love, she's sweet and true
You know the dress she wears, sweet mama, it's pink and blue
She brings me coffee, you know she brings me tea
She brings about every damn thing, but the jailhouse key

Oh, you had me several years ago
When I was still naive
Well, you said that we made such a pretty pair
And that you would never leave
But you gave away the things you loved
And one of them was me
I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee
Clouds in my coffee, and

You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you

I had a dream
Oh, yeah
Crazy dream, uh-huh
Anything I wanted to know
Any place I needed to go
Hear my song
Yeah, people don't you listen now?
Sing along
Oh
You don't know what you're missing, now
Any little song that you know
Everything that's small has to grow
And it's gonna grow, push push, yeah

I'm singin' in the rain
Just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again.
I'm laughing at clouds.
So dark up above,
The sun's in my heart
And I'm ready for love.
 
Let the stormy clouds chase.
Everyone from the place
Come on with the rain
I've a smile on my face
I walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Just singing,…

I saw her sitting in the rain
Raindrops falling on her
She didn't seem to care
She sat there and smiled at me
 
Then I knew
She could make me happy
Flowers in her hair
Flowers everywhere
I love the flower girl

Oh, I don't know just why, she simply caught my eye
I love the flower girl
She seemed so sweet and kind, she crept into my mind
To my mind

Spent my days with a woman unkind
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine
Made up my mind to make a new start
Going To California with an aching in my heart
Someone told me there's a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair
Took my chances on a big jet plane
Never let them tell you that they're all the same

I really apologize how I sound right now man
If this ain't clear at all, man
They got my mouth wired shut for like I don't know the doctor said like six weeks
 
I looked in the mirror, half of my jaw was missing from half my mouth, man
I couldn't believe it
But I'm still here for y'all right now, man
 
I got lawyer for the case to keep my safe book safe
My dawgs couldn't tell if I
I look like Tom Cruise on Vanilla Sky
It was televised
There's been an accident like GEICO
They thought I was burnt up like Pepsi did Michael
I must got a angel
Cause look how death missed his ass
Unbreakable, would you thought they called me Mr. Glass
Look back on my life like the ghost of Christmas past
Toys R Us where I used to spend that Christmas cash
And I still wont grow up, I'm a grown ass kid
Swear I should be locked up for stupid s- that I did
But I'm a champion, so I turned tragedy to triumph
Make music that's fire, spit my soul through the wire

I run into Charlie Fog
Blacked my eye and he kicked my dog
My doggie turned to me and he said
Let's head back to Tennessee Jed
I woke up a felin' mean
Went down to play the slot machine
The wheels turned around, and the letters read
You better head back to Tennessee Jed
Tennessee, Tennessee, there ain't no place I'd rather be
Baby won't you carry me, back to Tennessee,

My grandma past my brother's gone, I never at once felt so alone
I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel, not just my spare tire
(Home!) But Lord, I ask you
(Home!) to be my guiding force and truth
(Home!) For some strange reason it had to be
(Home!) he guided me to Tennessee

I'm sitting in the railway station
Got a ticket to my destination
On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand
And every stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band
Homeward bound
I wish I was
Homeward bound
Home where my thought's escaping
Home where my music's playing
Home where my love lies waiting
Silently for me

Counting stars by candlelight
all are dim but one is bright
The spiral light of Venus
rising first and shining best
On, from the northwest corner
of a brand new crescent moon
While crickets and cicadas sing
a rare and different tune
Terrapin station
In the shadow of the moon, terrapin station
And I know we'll be there soon, terrapin
I can't figure out, terrapin
if it's the end or beginning, terrapin
But the train's put it's brakes on, terrapin
And the whistle is screaming, terrapin

Standing in the station I'm looking at the board
The board ain't saying nothing that's lighten in my load
Is her destination Victoria Station
Where the trains go out and the trains come in
Where the trains go out and the trains come in

 

Her daddy's name was Casey she lived down by the track
I know she was born to ramble but I believed she would ramble back
Destination Victoria Station where the trains go out and the trains come in
Where the trains go out and the trains come in

See my face in the town that's flashing by
See me standing at the station in the rain
See me running there beside the car
I left it all behind me and I've traveled far
It took me a long time to get back on the train

Banking off of the northeast winds
Sailing on a summer breeze
And skipping over the ocean like a stone
Everybody's talking at me
Can't hear a word they're saying
Only the echoes of my mind
I won't let you leave my love behind
No, I won't let you leave
I won't let you leave my love behind

We'll put out to sea and we'll perfect our chemistry
And by and by we'll defy a little bit of gravity
Afternoon delight, cocktails and moonlit nights
That dreamy look in your eye, give me a tropical contact high
Way down in Kokomo

 

Aruba, Jamaica, oh I want to take you to
Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego, baby why don't we go
oh I want to take you down to
Kokomo, we'll get there fast and then we'll take it slow
That's where we want to go, way down in Kokomo

Only you know and I know
All the love we've got to show,
So don't refuse to believe it
By reading too many meanings.
'Cause you know that I mean what I say,
So don't go and take me the wrong way.
You know you can't go on getting your own way,
'Cause if you do, it's going to get you someday.

Loving you
Isn't the right thing to do
How can I ever change things
That I feel
 
If I could
Maybe I'd give you my world
How can I
When you won't take it from me
 
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way

"Take me to another place", she said
"Take me to another time
Run with me across the oceans
Float me on a silver cloud"
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would and I'd take you now

If you feel that it's real I'm on trial
And I'm here in your prison
Like a coin in your mint
I am dented and I'm spent with high treason
 
Through a glass eye your throne
Is the one danger zone
Take me to the pilot for control
Take me to the pilot of your soul
 
Take me to the pilot
Lead me through the chamber
Take me to the pilot
I am but a stranger

He blesses the boys as they stand in line
The smell of gun grease and the bayonets they shine
He's there to help them all that he can
To make them feel wanted he's a good holy man
 
Sky pilot.....sky pilot
How high can you fly
You'll never, never, never reach the sky
