Cucumber Castle (p)1970 If Only Had My Mind On Something Else verse 1: I could be king of kings ; wear a crown and all the things I'd want I'd never need. I'd be an ace in an aeroplane and every year I'd fly to Spain. If I could get the nerve to plant the seed. chorus: Oh, tell me how to say goodbye. I see her face in myself. Why, tell me why I made her cry If only had my mind on something else. verse 2: Captain of the submarine beneath the icebergs never seen. A hero with a medal for ev'ryday. I find me fame,reach the top. I keep on pushing never stop. If I could just forget her name. chorus: end: If only had my mind on something else. I.O.I.O. I.0. I. I. I. I. I. I. 0. I. 0. I.O.

You know I love getting up in the morning When the sun first strikes the trees All the morning birds that sing above Still bring back memories Of a girl who stood beside me When the rights I did were wrong But she went back down the river Just when I thought I could be strong When I thought I could be strong, so I sing I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O. I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.0. She never told me why she left me But the letter say goodbye Now my mornings are for wond'ring And my nights to reason why Why a stranger comes to steal the love Of a girl I had to hold But she went back down the river Just when I thought I could be strong When I thought I could be strong, so I sing I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O. I sing, I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O. I sing, I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O. I.O. I.0. I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O. I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O. I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O. Then You Left Me I never ask for any time from you baby. I never ask for any lies. You only hurt the one you love the most baby. You only had to make me cry. 'Cause you left me (you left me) all alone (you left me) You left me(you left me) to stand alone. And ev'ry night I sit beside my bed baby. And I keep thinking of your love. The things we dreamed about. How much I love you baby. We had the world and the stars above. But then you left me (you left me) all alone.(you left me) You left me . You left me (you left me) to stand alone. You left me to stand alone. You left me to stand alone. You left me. You left me. You left me. You left me. The Lord Verse 1: What do you get for trying? Minute you're born you're dying. The body is six feet down.The Lord says the soul sticks around. Chorus: You can believe what you wanna but I know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna believe in the Lord. You can believe what you wanna but I know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna believe in the Lord. Verse 2: You think you live on laughter. But you don't know what's after. Singing Hallelujah. I can know the Master. Chorus: Verse 3 When my life is over. Lie in fields of clover. Waiting for my own girl. Living in a new world . Yeah.. Chorus: Verse 1: Chorus: end: I'm gonna believe in the Lord. I Was The Child When I was you we walked to school And I carried your books 'cause even then I was a fool But you grew up and said goodbye I still remember the things that made me cry For all too soon my story ends I found a love, now not even friends Tell me why loving you , loving me like you used to do I was the child I held your hand and I told you things And I made you believe, believe in fairy tales and diamond rings hen all too soon my story ends I found a love ,now not even friends Tell me why loving you , loving me like you used to do I was the child Ah ..... I Lay Down And Die Only last night when your arms held me tight you told me you thought our love could last forever, forever I was the one that gave you all the love when I thought that our love could last forever, forever I lay down and die The whole world joins in And everyone cries as teardrops begin I lay down and die And when darkness falls can't seem right there at all I lay down and die The whole world joins in I lay down and die. The teardrops begin. I lay down and die. And die. And die. I lay down and die. The whole world joins in I lay down and die and the teardrops begin I lay down and die and I lay down and die Sweetheart If your heart tells you so that you should leave me Don't try to forget , you and I never met And before you fly, one kiss should tell me why You've forgotten all the words that you once said Long as I've got you there beside me Long as you're there to stand and guide me The love we share no one can ever tear apart Long as I've got this life I'm living Long as it's you the love I'm with then I'll keep on calling you sweetheart If my love for you can't make you happy Just open the door and you won't see my anymore And before you fly , one kiss should tell me why You've forgotten all the words that you once said When you said Long as I've got you there beside me Long as you're there to stand and guide me The love we share no one could ever tear apart Long as I've got this life I'm living Long as it's you the love I'm with then I'll keep on calling you sweetheart And I'll keep on calling you sweetheart Bury Me Down by the River I wasn't born in the morning, no I must have been born in the night I've done my load and I'll carry my load And all I own is my life I wasn't born to be lucky , 'cause luck had no future with me I've done my wrong and I'll sing, sing, sing my song and stand beneath the hanging tree Bury me down by the river Let all the towns people see Their enemy's dead, let me lay, lay my head Just put me down and set me free I wasn't born as a rich man, no A rich man I never, I never could be I've done my wrong and I'll sing, sing, sing my song And stand beneath the hanging tree (Everybody sing now) Bury me down by the river, lord no Let all the towns people see, see Their enemy's dead, let me lay, lay, lay my head Just put me down and set me free (I want to hear everybody sing) Bury me down by the river Let all the towns, let all the towns people see Their enemy's dead, let me lay, let met lay, let me lay my head along Just put me down and set me free (set me free) My Thing I see my dog lying under the table I see him licking my brother's girlfriend's hand La de da da da La de du da de du da de du du I can't understand those eyes that keep staring at me I can't understand how you do what you do to me I keep on looking for you everywhere I can't get used to the feeling you're giving me Bowzey wow wowzey Bowzey wow wowzey bow wowzey bow wowzey du du du du la la la la la la la la la The Chance of Love You and me we're both the same In this life a lonely game I used to be a happy man And now I understand just what it's all about I never had a doubt on the chance of love As a boy I lived down here I always saw you near To be together was happiness And I just can't forget the moment we first kissed I'd like to try again on the chance of love Yeah, on the chance of love I'll do anything to get you by my side On the sound of love I will love you girl You'll be mine All the world would then be free An apple falls from an apple tree You and I will be together And you will understand when I take your hand I'll open up the door to the chance of love Turning Tide What would I say if you should turn away from me I do not know if there are words that I can see I only know that I am reaching too high And who are we to touch the wind and say our ship is coming in The turning tide Tell me the answer in your changing mind, changing mind I don't know if love can last When time is gone and we are on the roundabout Would you still laugh and be a clown when love runs out Or will you say that I am reaching too high And who are we to touch the wind and say our ship is coming in The turning tide And who are we to touch the the wind and say our ship is coming in The turning tide Don't Forget To Remember Oh my heart won't believe that you have left me I keep telling my self that it's true I can get over anything you want my love But I can't get myself over you Don't forget to remember me And the love that used to be I still remember you I love you In my heart lies a memory to tell the stars above Don't forget to remember me my love On my wall lies a photograph of you girl Though I try to forget you somehow You're the mirror of my soul so take me out of my hole Let me try to go on living right now Don't forget to remember me And the love that used to be I still remember you I love you In my heart lies a memory to tell the stars above Don't forget to remember me my love
