blue moon misty mountain riding on a velvet sky violet rivers run a million miles wide i'm crying for you, what can i do im crying and I'm howling this whole world revolves around you can you hear the march wind howling moaning at her favorite song and the leaves are trembling i know it won't be long now the roses are appearing ice is all dead and gone living in a ghost town lost but it could be found i can see the stars around you wading in the milky way i can feel the light around me feels like it's far away and I'm crying for you / what can i do i'm crying and I'm howling this whole world revolves around you

you can walk in the rain and cleanse your soul or jump in the river and die gentle waves on a raging sea runnin’ straight and wild walkin’ alone by the water’s edge and the smoke is burning my eyes i hope that i don’t break my bones i hope that she don’t lie « when i get home everything will be alright just lay me down on the cold hard floor and let me rest my eyes / make me a pallet on your floor I'll see you in the morning light» you can walk in the rain and cleanse your soul or jump in the river and drown and god forbid if you can’t swim the current will drag you down so tighten the reigns on my love mama, don’t let me loose i’m crawlin’ home, i’m on my way mama, i’ll be there soon « when i get home everything will be alright just lay me down on the cold hard floor and let me rest my eyes / make me a pallet on your floor I'll see you in the morning light » thinkin' back on songs i've learned i've never heard before the girl in the sky and the dirty boy we danced and we went to war everything goes inside out darkness turns to light i’m stealin’ away dreams of love mama, don’t wake me up

there's a song of my memories full of places i have been its a game meant for losing i know ill never win its an uphill kind of battle every single day its a game meant for losing but i play it anyway in a field sweet with nothing there's a space there we filled out there in the valley dreaming on the hill walking on the river standing on the stone the past was just memory a day done passed and gone these days its a gamble but you try as best you can its a game meant for losing you know you'll never win its an uphill kind of battle every single day its a game meant for losing but you play it anyway theres a poor boy's empty pockets theres a king's golden crown its a game meant for losing but its the only game in town from big rock candy mountain to the valley soft and low the secrets of revival gotta reap just what you sow in the field we were children growing wild in the wind this game is meant for losing we know we never win the song is meant for singing so i sing it everyday its a game meant for losing but i play it anyway

black medicine in my eyes black medicine shock my mind black medicine light my way i need the loving spoonful every day black medicine my best friend if it ain't the real thing don't pretend black medicine lift me up straighten out my mind with your special stuff i take a drink and i go mad running round in circles talking outta my head i might not make it i think i'll die let me down easy save my life black medicine in my brain little bolts of lightning running through my veins black medicine light my way i need the loving spoonful every day

listen to the radio play nat king cole on a cold day watch the world as i spin her around saxophones off the hook now he's playing on the ground everybody's safe and secure hiding from the winter storm but me and my baby are waltzing in the rain the dress she wears is a fertile gown spun with thread of a generous ground giant steps lifting up my feet falling to my knees begging one more record please everybody's doing this or that i can see them in the frozen glass as me and my baby are waltzing in the rain just give me something i can feel but nothing cheap you know i play for real i see the champagne through the window pane glass smiles and tears but these things never last everybody's getting their kicks 1965 all up in a mix as me and my baby are waltzing in the rain
