One Mississippi
Two Mississippi
Three Mississippi
Up and down and
One Mississippi
Two Mississippi
Three Mississippi
Down the line and
You can try to take me out
Drag me out of muddy waters
But I won't go
I am the one in the dark always thinking
Through all the thoughts that keep me from living
I'm the one who wants to take the plunge (and I say)
Oh my God
I become again!
Every beginning
Starts with an end and works it’s way into lore
What am i waiting for?
I didn’t used to do a lot things
I didn’t used to do anything at all
But every wise man comes from
Seeing the end
Every wise man comes from
Starting over and over and over again
The Laughing Song
All day, all night
All day, all night
Ah ha ha
When you’re laughing I’m laughing
Ah ha ha
When you’re smiling I’m smiling
Laughing everyday
Laughing all the way
When I see you, I love to
See you laughing everyday
Getting down on the front veranda
All day, all night
Spinning round like an old victrola
All day, all night
Wanna take it downtown
Wanna hear the sound
Gimmie soca
Gimmie rhumba
Get me up from off the ground
Ah ha ha
When you’re laughing I’m laughing
Ah ha ha
When you’re smiling I’m smiling
Swing me out then pull me back
All day, all night
To another song at the discotheque
All day, all night
Wanna take it outta town
And dance the world around
Gimmie salsa
Gimmie cha-cha
Get me up from off the ground
Ah ha ha
When you’re laughing I’m laughing
Ah ha ha
When you’re smiling I’m smiling
Lost Chorus
Everybody's hewn by the day
But there's a light when the sun goes away
Everybody in good company
That is all that we’ll ever need
It’s true we've got
a lot of good fortune here with us
the way the moonlight comforts us
we go along we take it with us
Everybody moves like the waves
Ringing in another day
We'll make it back by and by
Another sun below the eastern sky
There's too much to ever know
So I accept that I can be wrong
I'm just one of these people
Trying to get along
There is peace tonight I swear
Its pouring down on us
Take it everywhere
Take this lost chorus
Music Like Thunder
The whole world is news to me
(Music like thunder)
Another coast across this sea
(Music like thunder)
When someone starts playing that
(Music like thunder)
The whole world is singing about
(Music like thunder)
There’s a million people in here
Flying over the biggest ocean
Beating out that rolling thunder
Flying over the biggest ocean
The patrons of life today love
(Music like thunder)
They’re putting out their worldly pain with
(Music like thunder)
With heels on the ceiling we’ve got
(Music like thunder)
There will be no grieving with
(Music like thunder)
There’s a million voices in here
Flying over the biggest ocean
Beating out that rolling thunder
Flying over the biggest ocean
Music in the sky!
Music in the sky!
Music in the sky!
Music in the sky!
Midnight Tonight
(Midnight Tonight)
Taking is slow while the music is easy
(Midnight Tonight)
Take on the silence, Take on the silence
(Midnight Tonight)
Out in the dark the music is sleeping
(Midnight Tonight)
Taking it easy, Taking it easy
(Midnight Tonight)
From the tops of the trees to the bottom of this salt sea
(Midnight Tonight)
Take on the silence, Take on the silence
Take on the silence
And load up the canvas
Melody Maestro
What do they talk about Mother?
When they talk about Uncle?
Do they talk about me
Like I don’t know no better?
The world knows nothing
If we don’t know of eachother
Turn up the lights tonight
Bring out the Melody Maestro
And every beat til Sunday
Put them out on the lawn
and let them catch those trade winds
The world knows nothing
If we don’t know of eachother
Turn up the lights tonight
For Solomon Linda/ Turn up the lights tonight
For Ibrahim Ferrer/ Turn up the lights tonight
For Ros Sothea/ Turn up the lights tonight
For Elias McDaniel/ Turn up the lights tonight

I am a real eater
No heartbreaker

I am a real eater
No warfarer
A true connoisseur
Of what we got in this world
Oh yeah!
La la la la
