Songs From An Unmarried Housewife And Mother, Greenwich Village, Usa

You gave me a flower
You gave me a ring
You're making me feel
Like i have everything
Now what i gotta do
Is baby be true

You're making it easy
You're making it fun
You're making me laugh
When the day is all done
True since i love you
I'm out of the blue

And blue is color
I've always been
That's all right...ooo...it's all right
I wasn't asking for any fixing
I came just right out of the blue

You're making me dinner
You're making me sing
Youlre making me feel
Like i want everything
Yeah, it's an old love song
And i'm humming along

You gave me some purple
You gave me some green
You gave me a chance
To not know what i mean
True since i love you
I'm out of the blue
And blue is the color i've always been...

I was born yesterday
Don't know nothin'
Eyes open wide
Seem to be on a funny farm
Guess i'll go on the nanana

You got to roll roll roll roll
You got to roll roll roll roll roll
On the nanana

It's scrapin' slow
Up to the top

I don't really like this
It don't seem right
It's on the top now
Zooming down down down
Looking around
Won't nobody stop this thing

You got to roll...

Some of the creatures laughing
With their hands up in the air
Others over the edge getting sick
One or two sitting quiet
And mad
Like they want their
Money back
They wanna get off
But you can't do that...no
You can't do that

You got to roll...

In my cherry apple cheeks
And my cotton candy
Mouth
And a stupid fuzzy hat
And a voice with which to shout

I got to roll. . .
Till the cows come home

There was a man in a hat and a vest riding
On the train
With a moustache and glasses
Too thick to see his eyes
Tucked up next to him a fat overnight bag
With a hole in the side and you could see
One of his ties

Flylng through tne sunrise
Unloved by the girl in the seat opposite
Who he's taking in tears
To the father of her unborn child

There's no such thing as love..,

Timidly now he reaches out for her hand
And his heartbeat is the speed of a
Hummingbird's wing

She is a blind one with an empty tin cup
Begging to strangers who remind her she
Don't mean a thing

Flying through the sunset...these two
As the see through moon fades away
And she lets him hold her hand

There's no such thing as love...

Nowhere for the pain in his heart to go
She as he helps her home
She is crying, oh the anger in her tiger
Paws
She don't want to have a baby
Just because
He is a kind man really listening to her
His dry eye and warm heart stare
Into her waterfalls

Flying through the sunset
Nowhere for the pain in his heart to go
As he helps her home
Home to who?

There's no such thing as love...

She tried to push him away with a
Ten foot pole
Saying i'm just a crusty old donut
Without any hole
Wearying bewildered bachelor how
Could he know
That she'd move her suitcase to his place a year ago

Where he stood in the doorway no clothes wearing
Asking permission to give all his love and his caring
Love and care

Theirs is a real thing, a dish in the sink
A dog in the stairwell making a stink
They got a true love so real you can feel it

For christmas he gave her
A silver and gold jewish star
He put it on top of the tree
And said there you are
She giggled and cried and
Rolled on the living room floor
And laughed at all of his jokes
So he told her some more

There he stood in the doorway
Crumpled and daring
Asking permission to give all his love
And his caring
Love and care

Theirs is a real thing
A working man's shoe
Worn through at the sole
As good as new
They got a true love
So real you can feel it

Five o'clock by the window pane watching the rain
New york city blues oh, the rain's coming down hard
It's dark out there you gotta have something to do

So one day she said i must go to alaska this winter
He yelled and kicked the table his toe got a splinter
Still he escorted her up to the gate at the airport
Saying dammit i don't understand what you have to go there for

Calendar pages were flipping he stayed home waiting
Saying oh this woman i love is so irritating

Theirs is a real thing, a welcome home kiss
The smell of his whiskers that she did miss
They got a true love so real you can feel it

Sweetie pie... sweetie pie
Bet no one ever called you that
Standing there disheveled
In your tattered coat and cowboy hat
Put your arms around me
Say good bye...say good bye

You are at the bottom
Of the corporate ladder totem pole
You wear your heart upon your sleeve
In it is a bullet hole
Shot through by every sheriff
With a badge in every town

You stood beneath the street light
With the moon above you and a star
Waiting like a gentleman
While i parked a rented car

I have been around the block
Chugging hard right off the rail
Discarded like a box of chinese food
Into the garbage pail
Let's look at the college kids go by
College kids go by

Honey bunch...sugar cube
You took me for an ice cream cone
We had some belly laughs
And i said, well
I guess i'm goin' home
Put your arms around me
Say good bye....say good bye

Some people gotta roam this earth
Never really fitting in
A stranger to the very
Chair they're sitting in

Sweetie pie.... sweetie pie
O how i depend on you
Standing there confused
With your shattered dreams
Nothin' to lose
You always say i love you
When you say good bye
When you say good bye, sweetie pie
