The Rose

Some say love, it is a river, that drowns a tender reef.
Some say love, it is a razor, that leeds a soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower, and you it's only seed.

It's the soul, afraid of dreaming, that never learns to dance.
It's the soul, afraid of waking, that never takes a chance.
It's the one, who won't be taken, who cannot seem to give,
And the soul, afraid of dyin' that never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long,
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong,
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the Rose.

Summertime

Summertime and the livin' is easy,
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high.
Oh yo' daddy's rich an' yo' ma is good lookin'
So hush, little baby, don't you cry.

One of these mornin's, you goin' to rise up singin'
Then you'll spread yo' wings an' you'll take the sky.
But till that mornin', there's a nothin' can harm you
With Daddy an' Mummy standin' by.

In The Evening

In the evening by the moonlight,
You can hear those darkies singing.
In the evening by the moonlight,
You can hear those bajos ringing.
How the old folks would enjoy it,
They would sit all night and listen.
When they sang in the evening by the moonlight.

Am Abend beim Mondenschein,
Kannst du die Schwarzen singen hören.
Am Abend beim Mondenschein,
Kannst du diese Banjos klingen hören.
Wie es die alten Leute erfreuen würde,
Sie würden jede Nacht sitzen und zuhören,
Als sie am Abend sangen, beim Mondenschein.

Let My People Go

When Israel was in Egypt's land

Let my people go
Oppressed so hard they could not stand
Let my people go

Go down, Moses,
Way down in Egypt's land
Tell ole, Pharao,
Let my people go

When said the Lord, bald Moses said
Let my people go
If no I'll smite your first, born, dead
Let my people go

Go down, Moses...

La-la-la, la-la, lalala, la-la-lala-la... (2x)

Go down, Moses...

When said the Lord, bald Moses said
Let my people go
If no I'll smite your first, born, dead
Let my people go

Go down, Moses...

When said the Lord, Moses said...

Go down, Moses...

Let my people go (4x)

When Israel was in Egypt's land
Let my people go
Oppressed so hard they could not stand
Let my people go

Go down, Moses...

When Israel was in Egypt's land...

Go down, Moses...

 Swing Low

Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming for to carry me home! (2x)

I looked over Jordan an'what did I see,
Comin' for to carry me home
A band of Angels comin'after me,
Comin' for to carry me home.

Swing low...

If you get there before I do,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Jess tell my friends that I'm acomin' too,
Comin' for to carry me home.

Swing low...

I'm sometimes up and sometimes down,
Comin' for to carry me home,
But still my soul feels heavenly bound
Comin' for to carry me home!

Let It Be

When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be. (2x)

And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see,
There will be an answer, let it be.

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,
There will be an answer, let it be. (2x)

And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me,
Shine until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sounds of music, Mother Mary comes to me,
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
