1. _ Strange Weather
Will you take me across the channel,
London bridge is falling down.
Strange a woman tries to save
What a man will try to drown.
And he's the rain that they predicted,
It's the forecast every time.
The rose has died because you picked it
An' i believe that brandy's mine.
And all over the world
Strangers
Talk only about the weather.
All over the world
It's the same
It's the same
It's the same.
The word is getting flatter,
The sky is falling all around.
And nothing is the matter
For i never cry in town.
And a love like ours, my dear,
Is best measured when it's down.
And i never buy umbrellas,
For there's always one around.
And all over the world
Strangers
Talk only about the weather.
All over the world
It's the same
It's the same
It's the same.
And you know that it's beginning,
And you know that it's the end
When once again we are strangers
And the fog comes rolling in.
And all over the world
Strangers
Talk only about the weather.
All over the world
It's the same
It's the same
It's the same.
Dr. john:
You ready ? 2, 3, 4, 1.

2. _ Sign Of Judgement
Yes, sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement time ain't long.
Yes, sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement time ain't long.
I don't like old satan
None of his tempting charms.
Cheat you at your jesus now
And roll you in his arms.
I said yes, sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement time ain't long.
I don't like old satan,
Nothing he say or do.
Tell one lie to hurt us all,
Then two to make it true.
Yes, the sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement time ain't long.
I said yes, the sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement time ain't long.
Yes, the sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement, yes
Sign of judgement time ain't long.

3. _ As Tears Go By [version 2]
It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Smiling faces i can see
But not for me,
I sit and watch as tears go by.
My riches can't buy everything,
I want to hear the children sing.
All i hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground,
I sit and watch as tears go by.
It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Doing things i used to do
They think are new,
I sit and watch as tears go by.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

4. _ I'll Keep It With Mine
You will search, babe,
At any cost
But how long, babe,
Can you search for what is not lost ?
Everybody will help you,
Some people are very kind.
But if i can save you anytime
Come on, give it to me,
I'll keep it with mine.
I can't help it
If you might think i am odd,
If i say i'm loving you
Not for what you are but for what you're not.
Everybody will help you
Discover what you set out to find.
But if i can save you anytime
Come on, give it to me,
I'll keep it with mine.
The train leaves
At half past ten
But it will be back
In the same old spot again.
The conductor,
He's still stuck on the line
But if i can save you anytime
Come on, give it to me,
I'll keep it with mine.

6. _ Boulevard Of Broken Dreams
I walk along the street of sorrow
The boulevard of broken dreams
Where gigolo and gigolette
Can take a kiss without regret
So they forget their broken dreams.
You laugh tonight and cry tomorrow
When you behold your shattered schemes.
And gigolo and gigolette
Wake up to find their eyes are wet
With tears that tell of broken dreams.
Here is where you'll always find me,
Always walking up and down,
But i left my soul behind me
In an old cathedral town.
The joy that you find here, you borrow,
You cannot keep it long it seems.
But gigolo and gigolette
Still sing a song and dance along
The boulevard of broken dreams.
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
The joy that you find here, you borrow,
You cannot keep it long it seems.
But gigolo and gigolette
Still sing a song and dance along
The boulevard of broken dreams.

7. _ Hello Stranger
Hello stranger, hello stranger.
Who is that person in the mirror ? it's not me.
Whatever happened to the one that i used to be ?
Is she just another fading memory ?
Hello stranger, hello stranger.
Hello stranger, hello stranger.
Every night you're always in my bed.
Every day you stay inside my head.
Oh, how i wish that i was there instead
Of some sad stranger,
Some sad stranger,
Hello stranger.

8. _ Yesterdays
Yesterdays, yesterdays,
Days i knew as happy sweet sequestered days.
Olden days, golden days,
Days of mad romance and love.
Then gay youth was mine
Truth was mine
Joyous free and flaming life
Then truth was mine
Sad am i, glad am i,
For today i'm dreaming of
Yesterdays.
Yesterdays, yesterdays,
Days i knew as happy sweet sequestered days.
Golden days, olden days,
Days of mad romance and love.
Then gay youth was mine
Truth was mine
Joyous free and flaming life
Then truth was mine
Sad am i, glad am i,
For today i'm dreaming of
Yesterdays.

9. _ A Stranger On Earth
Some fools don't know what's right from wrong,
But somehow those folks belong.
Me, i try for all i'm worth,
But i still remain a stranger on this earth.
Some people gloom, other folk cry.
Me, i have to struggle to keep alive.
Ever since the day of my birth
I've been a stranger, stranger on this earth.
I try to be what all folks should,
Forgetting the bad and doing good.
But no matter how i try,
My troubles always multiply.
Now i've been doing the best i can
Ever since life began.
Some day when i prove my worth
I won't be a stranger on earth.
Now i've been living the best i can
Ever since my life began.
The day's gonna come when i prove my worth
And i won't be no stranger,
No, i won't be a stranger
On this earth.

10. _ Penthouse Serenade
Just picture a penthouse way up in the sky
With hinges on chimneys for stars to go by
A sweet slice of heaven for just you and i
When we're alone.
From all of society we'll stay aloof
And live in propriety there on the roof.
Two heavenly hermits we will be in truth
When we're alone.
We'll see life's mad pattern
As we view old manhattan
Then we can thank our lucky stars
That we're living as we are.
In our little penthouse we'll always contrive
To keep love and romance forever alive
In view of the hudson just over the drive,
When we're alone.
We can thank our lucky stars
That we're living as we are.
In our little penthouse we'll always contrive
To keep love and romance forever alive
In view of the hudson just over the drive,
When we're alone.

11. _ Love, Life And Money
Love you made me pay an awful price,
I tried to gamble with you, but you were using crooked dice.
Somebody's gotta suffer, somebody's gotta feel some pain.
If it's gonna rain down misery, why it's all gotta fall on me.
Money you made me some very good friends.
Just like you make them, you're gonna break them in the end.
Somebody's gotta suffer, somebody's gotta feel some pain.
If it's gonna rain down misery, why it's all gotta fall on me.
I've had my share of love, life and money.
I lost it all three ways and i'm here to tell ya it sure ain't funny.
Me and my money parted, so did my love and i,
Life don't mean a thing, and i wish that i could die.
In life you make a whole lotta fools,
'cause you're always teaching something that they never teach in schools.
Somebody's gotta suffer, somebody's gotta feel some pain.
If it's gonna rain down misery, why it's all gotta fall on me.
Love, you made me pay an awful price,
I tried to gamble with you, but you were using crooked dice.
Somebody's gotta suffer, somebody's gotta feel some pain.
If it's gonna rain down misery, why it's all gotta fall on me.
If it's gonna rain down misery, why it's all gotta fall on me.

12. _ I Ain't Goin' Down To The Well No More
Oh
I ain't going down
I ain't going down
Oh, honey to the well no more
Oh.
And i ain't got nothing
Oh, and i can't stand nothing
Oh.
I ain't going down
I ain't going down
Oh, sweet mama to the well no more
Oh.
You said you was a true believer
I'm the true believer
I'm a true believer
Oh.
I ain't going down
I ain't going down
Oh, mama to the well no more
Oh.
