7.Steal My Heart Away
作詞:Van Morrison
I can hear the sound of violins
I can hear the piper playin'
And every time the song begins
You just steal my heart away
And journey's longer than I thought, my love
There's lots of things get in the way
But every time I think of you
You just steal my heart away
Just like a morning in May like this
See the heather on the hill
There's a place way up the mountainside
Where the world keeps standing still
Just like the sunshine after rain, I'll come
To be with you will save the day
'Cause I know when I'm with you again
You just steal my heart away
Just like a morning in May like this
We see the heather on the hill
There's a place up on the mountainside
Where the world is standing still
Just like the sunshine after rain, I'll come
To be with you will save the day
'Cause I know when I'm with you again
You just steal my heart away
'Cause I know when I'm with you again
You just steal my heart away
'Cause I know when I'm with you again
You just steal my heart away
'Cause I know when I'm with you again
You just steal my heart away

9.Stormy Monday

Lord, but Tuesday's just as bad
You know they call it stormy Monday

The eagle flies on Friday
Lord, and Saturday we go out and play
The eagle flies on Friday
Well, Lord, and Saturday we go out an play

And I kneel down and pray
And this is what I say:

You know I'm tryin', tryin' to find my baby

10.Sweet Sixteen
Well, well, I loved you
Like I never loved before
First time I saw you
Standing home at your front door
Do you remember
You created quite a scene
When you were walking
Down by the village green
Chorus
When you were only
When you were only
When you were only
When you were only
Sweet sixteen
Baby, how I loved you
Sweet sixteen
How I really loved you
Sweet sixteen
Baby, how I loved you
Sweet sixteen
How I really loved you
Sweet sixteen
Standing on the corner
And you came walking by
And when I saw you
I said 'My, my, my, my'
Do you remember
How I took you by the hand?
Do you remember
In the sunny summerland?
Chorus And your eyes shine like diamonds
And they sparkle in the night
And the kind of love that you give me
Seems to light up all my life
Sax break - Van?
And then, and then, and then I told you
That we'd never ever part
And then, and then, and then I'd hold you
A little closer to my heart
Do you remember
All the stars were shining bright?
Do you remember
It was on a magic night?
Chorus and fade

Every little song
Every little song that your love brings
And every day, in every little way
Your love shows
And every day, in every way
Our love grows
You've gotta tell me
Tell me, tell me, tell me
All about your love, all about your love
Lovin' only you, lovin' that is true
Is my prime delight
Lovin only you, lovin' that is true

You're my heart's desire
Come on and tell me

12.The Big Royalty Check
作詞:Van Morrison
I'm waiting
For my royalty check to come
And it still hasn't come yet
It's about a year overdue
I guess it's coming from
The big royalty check in the sky
I waited and the mailman
Never dropped it in my letterbox
Oh, oh oh, oh
I guess it's a
Big royalty check in the sky
Ohh, baby
But you can't beat the tax man
And me all at once
Van Morrison
Miscellaneous
Do you see what they are
Do you hear what they say
People it is sad but true
They're dressed really stupid
But they think they're O.K.
And they got no use for you
The dead girls of London
Why do they act that way?
Maybe it's the water, mama
Maybe it's the tea
Maybe it's the way they was raised
Maybe it's the stuff what they read in the papers
Keeps them lookin' sorta half in a daze
Well the dead girls of London
Why do they act that way?
We're the dead girls of London
We thinks we are fine
We ain't hittin' on nothin'
But the boutique frame of mind
You see 'em dancing at the disco every night
Like a bunch of little robot queens
Making little noises full of fake delight
But they're really just so full of beans
The dead girls of London
Why do they act that way?
We're the dead girls of London
We thinks we are fine
We ain't hittin' on nothin'
But the boutique frame of mind
Boutique frame of mind
Gee I like your pants
Boutique frame of mind
Gee I like your pants
Boutique frame of mind
Gee I like your pants
14.The Last Laugh
From the Sailing To Philadelphia album
Don't you love the sound
Of the last laugh, my friend
Don't you love the sound
Of the last laugh, at the end
Down in the gutter
With the mad old soldiers
Down in the scuppers
With the drunken sailors
Down in the gutter
With the mad old soldiers
But the last laugh, baby is yours
And don't you love the sound
Of the last laugh goin' down
Games you thought you'd learned
You neither lost nor won
The dreams have crashed and burned
You still keep on, keepin' on
Out on the highway
With the road gang, workin'
Up on a mountain
With a cold wind blowin'
Out on the highway
Was a road band, workin'
But the last laugh, baby is yours
And don't you love the sound
Of the last laugh, goin' down
They had you cryin'
And you came up smilin'
They had you crawlin'
And you came up flyin'
They had you cryin'
And you came up smilin'
And the last laugh, baby is yours
And don't you love the sound
The last laugh goin' down?
Well, don't you love the sound
Of the last laugh, goin' down
15.The Story of Them
When friends were friends
And company was right
We'd talk and talk and sing
All through the night.
Morning came leisurely and bright
Downtown we'd walk
And passers by
Would shudder with delight
Mmmmmm!
Good times...
All the cats were there
Just dirty enough to say
'We don't care.'
But the management had had complaints
About some cats with long long hair
'Look look look'
And the people'd stare
'Why, you won't be allowed in
anywhere'
Barred from pubs and clubs and
dancehalls
Made the scene at the Spanish rooms
at the falls
And man, four pints of that scrumpy was
enough to have you
Out of your mind.
Climbing up the walls
Out of your mind
But it was a gas, all the same
Now just around about this time with
the help of the three J's
Started playin' at the Maritime.
That's Jerry, Jerry and Jimmy
You know they were always fine
They helped us run the Maritime.
And don't forget Kit
Hitting people on the head and
knockin' them out
You know he did his best and all
Was something else...
Now people say, who are
Or what are Them
That little one sings and that big
one plays the guitar with
a thumble on his finger runs it up
and down the strings
The bass player don't shave much
I think they're all a little bit
touched
But the people came
And that's how we made our name
Too much it was
Yeah, good times
Wild, sweaty, crude, ugly
And mad.
And sometimes just a little bit sad
Yeah, they sneered and all
But up there, we just havin' a ball
It was a gas, you know
Some good times...
We are the Them take it or leave it
You know they took it
It kept coming
And we worked for the people
Sweet sweat
And the misty misty atmosphere
Gimme another drink of beer baby
Gotta get goin' here...
Blues come rollin'
Down all your avenue
Won't stop at the city hall
Just a few steps away
You can look up at
Maritime hotel
Just a little bit sad
Gotta walk away
Wish it well...
16.The Street Only Knew Your Name (in album The Philosopher's Stone)
Your street, rich street or poor
You should always be sure of your street
There's a place in your heart,
when you know from the start
And you can't be complete without a street
Keep movin' on, just like a train
Sometimes you gotta look back to the street again
Would you prefer all those castles in Spain
Or a view of the street from your window pane
When you were young, so young
So very very young
When you were young, so young
So very very young
And the street only knew your name
And the street only knew your name
And the street only knew your name, oh your precious name,
precious name
There was Walter and joy, Kate and Roy
All hung around the corner lamplight
Get together sing some songs
Like Boppin' The Blues - you make me feel alright
That was long before fortune and fame
No such thing as a star when you've played that game
Everyone knew who everyone was
There was no preference in the street no, no
When you were young, so young
So very very young
When you were young, so young
So very very young
And the street only knew your name
And the street only knew your name
And the street only knew your name, oh your precious name
And you walked around in the heart of town
Listening for that sound
And you walk around in the heart of town
Listening for that sound
Blue Suede Shoes, it was the Blue Suede Shoes
When you were young, so young
So very very young
When you were young, so young
So very very young
And the street only knew your name
And the street only knew your name
And the street only knew your name
And the street only knew your name

18.Think Twice Before You Go
作詞:Albert B Smith
Think twice before you go
Baby, this will be the end
Think twice before you go
Baby, this will be the end
Can you leave me one time?
Baby, you will leave again
Stay and suffer with me, baby
Then I'll know you paid your due
Stay and suffer with me, baby
Then I'll know you paid your due
If you're not there when I need you
Then you know you stand accused
Think twice before you go
Baby, this will be the end
Think twice before you go
Baby, this will be the end
If you leave me one time
Baby, you will leave again
You're breakin' my heart
When you know you done me wrong
You're breakin' my heart
You know you done me wrong
Baby, come back home
Come back where you belong
Think twice before you go
Baby, this will be the end
Think twice before you go
Baby, this will be the end
If you leave me one time

Baby, this will be the end

If you leave me one time
Baby, you will leave again

20.Times Gettin' Tougher Than Tough
A well money's gettin' cheaper
Price is gettin' steeper
I found a little woman
But I just couldn't keep her
Times gettin' tougher than tough
Times gettin' rougher than rough
Well I make alot of money
I just keep spendin' the stuff
Oh well pork chops on the market
Ask the butcher for a pound
I couldn't get no pork chop
When I laid my money down
Times gettin' tougher than tough
Times gettin' rougher than rough
Well I make alot of money
I just keep spendin' the stuff
(Instrumental)
Oh well the politicans say
Get the people on their feet
They wanna cut the price
And let the people eat
Times gettin' tougher than tough
The times gettin' rougher than rough
But I make alot of money
Just keep spendin' the stuff
Well I can't afford to live
I guess I'll have to try
Undertakers got a union
And it cost too much to die
Times gettin' tougher than tough
Well times gettin' rougher than rough
Well I make alot of money
Just keep spendin' the stuff
21.Too-Ra-Loo-Ra-Loo-Ral (That's An Irish Lullaby)
Over in Killarney
Many years ago,
Me Mither sang a song to me
In tones so sweet and low.
Just a simple little ditty,
In her good ould Irish way,
And l'd give the world if she could sing
That song to me this day.
Chorus:
'Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, hush now, don't you cry!
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, that's an Irish lullaby.'
Oft in dreams I wander
To that cot again,
I feel her arms a-huggin' me
As when she held me then.
And I hear her voice a-hummin'
To me as in days of yore,
When she used to rock me fast asleep
Outside the cabin door.
22.Turn On Your Lovelight
作詞:D Malone, J Scott
Got a woman, broke my heart
Took it darlin', tore it apart

You said your love for me was dyin'
And I'm beggin' you, baby

27.When Will I Ever Learn To Live In God
作詞:Van Morrison
The sun was setting over Avalon
The last time we stood in the west
Suffering long time angels enraptured by Blake
Burn out the dross innocence captured again
Standing on the beach at sunset all the boats
All the boats keep moving slow
In the glory of the flashing light in the evening's glow
When will I ever learn to live in God?
When will I ever learn?
He gives me everything I need and more
When will I ever learn?
You brought it to my attention everything that was made in God
Down through centuries of great writings and paintings
Everything lives in God
Seen through architecture of great cathedrals
Down through the history of time
Is and was in the beginning and evermore shall be
When will I ever learn to live in God?
When will I ever learn?
He gives me everything I need and more
When will I ever learn?
Whatever it takes to fulfill his mission
That is the way we must go
But you've got to do it your own way
Tear down the old, bring up the new
And up on the hillside it's quiet
Where the shepherd is tending his sheep
And over the mountains and the valleys
The countryside is so green
Standing on the highest hill with a sense of wonder
You can see everything is made in God
Head back down the roadside and give thanks for it all
When will I ever learn to live in God?
When will I ever learn?
He gives me everything I need and more
When will I ever learn?
28.Why Don't You Love Me
作詞:Hank Sr Williams
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
How come you treat me like a worn out shoe?
My hair's still curly and my eyes are still blue
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
Ain't had no lovin' like a huggin' and a kissin'
In a long, long while
We don't get nearer, further
Closer than a country mile
Why don't you spark me like you used to do?
And say sweet nothing's like you used to coo
I'm the same old trouble that you've always been through
So why don't you love me like you used to do?
Well, why don't you just be like you used to be?
How come you find so many faults with me?
Somebody's changed so gimme a clue
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
Ain't had no lovin' like a huggin' and a kissin'
In a long, long while
We don't get nearer, further
Closer than a country mile
Why don't you say the things you used to say?
What makes you treat me like a piece of clay?
My hair's still curly and my eyes are still blue
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
Why don't you love me like you used to do?
29.Wobble And Ball

30.Wonderful Remark (another version)
How can you stand the silence
That pervades when we all cry?
How can you watch the violence
That erupts before your eyes?
How can you tell us something
Just to keep us hangin' on?
Something that just don't mean nothing
When we see it you are gone
Clinging to some other rainbow
While we're standing, waiting in the cold
Telling us the same old story
Knowing time is growing old.
That was a Wonderful Remark
I had my eyes closed in the dark
I sighed a million sighs
I told a million lies - to myself - to myself
How can we listen to you
When we know your talk is cheap?
How can we ever question
Why we give more and you keep?
How can your empty laughter
Fill a room like ours with joy
When you're only playing with us
Like a child does with a toy?
How can we ever feel the freedom
Or the flame lit by the spark
How can we ever come out even
When reality is stark?
That was a Wonderful Remark
I had my eyes closed in the dark - yeah
I sighed a million sighs
I told a million lies - to myself - to myself
Baby to myse - e - e - elf
(etc. to fade)
31.You Just Can't Win
One more coffee
One more cigarette
One more morning trying to forget.
If I had the chance
To join your dance
I wouldn't like to bet,
Your game is something yet
It's a shame,
Ain't natural for you,
Baby, it's a sin,
You know you just can't win
When you are in.
You used to ride on buses
Take a tube to Camden Town.
Now you go by aeroplane
Don't let nothing bring you down.
It's a shame,
Ain't natural for you,
Baby, it's a sin,
Don't you know you just can't win
When you are in.
Now the road is dark and lonely,
But you got a pearl light mode.
You're up in Park Lane now
And I'm somewhere around
In Tottenham Court Road.
It's a shame,
Ain't natural for you,
Baby, it's a sin,
Don't you know you just can't win
When you are in.
No, you just can't win,
No, you just can't win
When you are in.

36.It Won't Hurt Half As Much
I've been up and and down the highway
And I've seen what a man can do
To some little girl along the byway
That's why I sing this song to you
If you find your baby's gone
And you don't know where or when
You wonder, yes you wonder
If you'll ever see him again
Just remember, remember
These simple words I brought
Soon it won't hurt half as much
No it won't hurt half as much
No it won't hurt half as much as you thought
'Cause I been up and down the highway
And I watch them as they pass by
Broken hearts and I wish that they'd go my way
I'd save them every little teardrop they cry
Won't you listen?
If you think you can't go on
And life ain't got it for you no more
You're waitin' every night
For him to come walkin' through that door
Just remember, remember
These simple words that I brought
Soon it won't hurt half as much
No it won't hurt half as much
No it won't hurt half as much as you thought
Well, it won't hurt half as much
No, it won't hurt half as much
Lord, it won't hurt half as much as you though
FADES
And everytime you're sad, you cry
You feel like you...
37.Straight To Your Heart Like A Cannonball
作詞:Geroge Ivan Morrison
Well you know sometimes it gets so hard
And everything don't seem to rhyme
I take a walk out in my backyard and go
Do do loo do do, do do loo do do
Waiting for the sun to shine
And you know sometimes it gets so painful
Just like talking to yourself
When everything don't seem to have no rhyme or reason we all go
Do do loo do do, do do loo do do
Waiting for the sun to shine
We move along, keep singing our song
Straight to your heart like a cannonball
La la ti da, la la ti da
Doo do loo do do, waiting for the sun to shine
Well you know, everyday we hear it through the grapevine
That's why I'm so tired of hearing it through the grapevine
anymore
Because you hear it through the grapevine
It's just a dirty rotten waste of time, we go
Do do loo do do, while waiting for the sun to shine
We move along, keeping singing our song
Straight to your heart like a cannonball
La la ti da, la la ti da
Doo do loo do do, we move along
Keep singing our song
38.The Lion This Time
作詞:Van Morrison
The lion this time again
He's in the circus in a cage
He's trying to break out of the frame
The lion this time
He hears that same old sad refrain
But they can't hold him with no chain
And they just can't denounce his claim
The lion again
And he's trying to get free
He knows that something's bothering me
That I'm not too blind to see
The lion again
Oh, the love that's in his soul
Is trying to get out you know
If only you could hear it roar
The lion again this time
They couldn't take away his throne
He knows that he must stand alone
If need be, have a heart of stone
The lion again
The lion this time again
He's in the circus in a cage
No wonder that he's in a rage
The lion again
And he's trying to get free
And he knows that something's bothering me
Oh, but I'm not too blind to see
The lion this time
The longing that's in his soul
Is trying to get out you know
Only you could hear it roar
For the lion this time
They couldn't take away his throne
He knows that he must stand alone
If need be have a heart of stone
The lion again
The lion again this time
He's in the circus in a cage
No wonder that he's in a rage
The lion this time
The lion this time again
He's in the circus in a cage
No wonder that he's not the same
The lion again
The lion this time, the lion this time
The lion this time, the lion this time
The lion this time, the lion this time
The lion this time, the lion this time
The lion this time

40.The Beauty Of The Days Gone By
作詞:Van Morrison
When I recall just how it felt
When I went walking down by the take
My soul was free, my heart awake
When I walked down into the town
The mountain air was fresh and clear
The sun was up behind the hill
It felt so good to be alive
On that morning in spring
I want to sing this song for you
I want to lift your spirits high
And in my soul I want to feel
The beauty of the days gone by
The beauty of the days gone by
It brings a longing to my soul
To contemplate my own true self
And keep me young as I grow old
The beauty of the days gone by
The music that we used to play
So, lift your glass and raise it high
To the beauty of the days gone by
I'll sing it from the mountain top
Down to the valley down below
Because my cup doth overflow
With the beauty of the days gone by
The mountain glen where we used to roam
The gardens there by the railroad track
Oh, my memory it does not lie
Of the beauty of the days gone by
The beauty of the days gone by
It brings a longing to my soul
To contemplate my own true self
And keep me young as I grow old
And keep me young as I grow old
And keep me young as I grow old
And keep me young as I grow old

Other eyes smile tenderly
For that peaceful dreams I see
The road, the road, the road, the road
The road, the road, the road, the road
The road, the road, the road leads back to you

Your arms, your arms reach out to me
Your eyes, your eyes, your eyes

But your lips deny that they are true

I'm afraid some day you're gonna leave me
Saying, why can't we still be friends?

44.Things Have Gone To Pieces
作詞:Leon Payne
Oh, the faucet started dripping in the kitchen
Last night your picture fell down from the wall
And today the boss said, ''I'm sorry son, I can't use you
anymore'
And tonight the light bulb went out down the hall
Oh, things have gone to pieces since you left me
Nothing turns out half right, now it seems
There ain't nothin' in my pocket but three nickels and a dime
And I'm holding to pieces of my dreams
Somebody threw a baseball through my window
And the arm fell off my favourite chair today
Oh, the man he came today, said he'd haul all my things away
If I didn't yell my payments made by ten
Things have gone to pieces since you left me
Now nothin' turns out half right, now it seems
There ain't nothin' in my pocket but three nickels and a dime
And I'm holding to the pieces of my dreams

作詞:Van Morrison
Well, don't you know, how much I love you?
Don't you know, how much I care?
It's beyond my comprehension
'Cos I love you on the square
It's not bound by any definition
It isn't written in the stars
It's not limited like Saturn
Isn't ruled by Mercury or Mars
Oh, won't you meet me in the Indian summer?
Where we'll go walking down by the weeping willow tree
Won't you meet me in the Indian summer?
We'll go walking to eternity
It's not modeled by convention
It isn't worshiped like the sun
It's not likened unto any other
And it will never come undone
Well, don't you know that my world is so lonely?
Just like a freight train in the dawn
That's why I need to have and hold you
Just to keep me from going wrong
Oh, won't you meet me in the Indian summer?
We'll go walking by the weeping willow tree
Won't you meet me Lord in the Indian summer?
We'll go walking to eternity
Won't you meet me in the Indian summer?
Well, before those chilly winds do blow
Won't you meet me in the Indian summer?
Take me way back to what I know
Oh, won't you meet me in the Indian summer?
We'll go walking by the weeping willow tree
Oh, won't you meet me in the Indian summer?
We'll go walking to eternity

Minutes seem so long
When evening shadows fall
I'm waiting for the dawn
I miss you every night
Just about this time
You're always on my mind
When evening shadows fall
When evening shadows fall
End up staring at the wall
Even when you're gone
The feeling's all so strong
Want you to come on back
Back where you belong
So I can sing my song
When evening shadows fall
Well I'm living in a dream
And it s getting so late
And you call my name
And I'm wide awake
It might as well be night
Hope that you're alright
Well I just can't wait
To get you in my sight
I'm here every day
Just about this time
From dusk till dawn
When evening shadows fall
Well I'm living in a dream
And it's getting so late
And you call my name
Then I'm wide awake
It might as well be night
Hope that you're alright
Well I just can't wait
To get you in my sight
You ask me if I miss you

Only every night 'bout this time
When evening shadows fall
Every night about this time
When evening shadows fail
You're always on my mind
When evening shadows fall

52.I Have Finally Come To Realise
作詞:Van Morrison
I have finally come to realize
Child, don't do what I have done
Cut my nose to spite my face
Made my own odds ten thousand to one
I saw the empire slowly fade away
Tried to grasp it with my hand
Then I saw that it was not up to me
I'm just one tiny, tiny grain of sand
Oh, sweet release, oh, how you soothe me
When I let go, I love how you use me
I have finally come to realize, it's somethin' they're doin'
Yeah, they're doin' that we find
A certain way that we can live our lives
And I'm takin' some peace of mind
Oh, sweet release, oh, how you soothe me
And when I let go, and when I let go
I love how you use me
I have finally come to realize, it's somethin' they're doin'
Yeah, they're doin' that we find
A certain way that we can live our lives
And I'm takin' some peace of mind
I have finally come to realize, yes, I have
Child, don't do, child, don't do what I have done
I cut my nose, I cut my nose to spite my face
I made my own odds ten thousand to one
I cut my nose to spite my face
I made my own odds ten thousand to one
One more time
I cut my nose, I cut my nose

53.Talk Is Cheap
作詞:Morrison Van
Kicked your gift-horse in the teeth
Crowd gathered round in the street
You killed your savior new one can't be found
Talk is cheap your savior's highway bound
You read the tabloids every day
They're giving lots of things away
They went to build you up so they can bring you down
Talk is cheap it's gonna could make them a million pounds
Now baby, don't put your business on the telephone
Tell your girlfriend just to leave me alone
Tell her to watch her mouth before she talks to anybody, anybody
Oh, 'cos talk is cheap it comes with the territory
Sometimes it's back-to-front sometimes it's upside down
Put your money where your mouth is when you come around
Backbiters and syndicators walking from Chinatown
Oh talk is cheap why don't you lay your money down?
Well, they say you can't shut up a god damn fool
Ain't no exception to the rule
It's blah, blah, blah, blah just like a nursery rhyme
Talk is cheap almost all the time, alright
54.Gypsy In My Soul
作詞:Van Morrison
It's just the gypsy in my soul
Make me pack up my things and go
It may seem like I'm on a roll
But it's just the gypsy in my soul
Layin' out in the midday sun
Tryin' so hard not to run
Looking out at the deep blue sea
I guess it's just the gypsy in me
Jump on that train
Catch that plane
Here and there
And back again
Well it seems like some kind of cruel fate
Keep me moving in this restless state
Sometimes it feels like I don't have any goal
It's just the gypsy
Catch that train
Jump on that plane
Here and there
And back again
Well it seems like some kind of cruel fate
Keep me moving, moving in permanent restless state
Seems like some days I don't have any goal
It's just this gypsy in my soul
Gyp-gyp-gypsy, gypsy, gypsy in my soul
Gyp-gyp-gypsy in my soul soul soul soul soul soul
G-g-gypsy in my soul
G-g-gypsy in my soul
55.Just Like Greta
作詞:Van Morrison
Some days it gets completely crazy
And I feel like howlin' at the moon
Then sometimes it feels so easy
Like I was born with a silver spoon
Other times you just can't reach me
Seem like I've got a heart of stone
Guess I need my solitude
And I have to make it on my own
Well, I guess I'm going A.W.O.L
Disconnect my telephone
Just like Greta Garbo
I want to be alone
Need to make some real connection
Baby, something's just got to give
'Cause I've been too long in exile
I've been grindin' at the mill
Too long to decode all the secrets
Have to get some elbow room
Most people think that everything
Is just what they assume
Well, I know I'm going A.W.O.L
Tell everyone I'm not at home
Just like Greta Garbo
I just want to be alone
Well, I'm goin' out to L.A.
I wanna get my business done
Then I'm goin' on to Vegas
Then I'm goin' on the run
If anybody asked you have you seen me
Please just tell them, 'No'
'Cause I'm livin' on the outside
And I have nowhere to go
Well, I guess I'm goin' A.W.O.L
Oh, disconnect my telephone
Just like Greta Garbo
I just want to be alone
Alright
I just want to be alone
Disconnect my telephone
Just like Greta Garbo
I just want to be alone
56.Van Morrison - Moondance
作詞:Van Morrison
Well it's a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I'm trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
You know the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Can I just have one a' more moondance with you, my love?
Can I just make some more romance with a' you, my love?
Well I wanna make love to you tonight
I can't wait till the morning has come
And I know now the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that you're never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that, you can't hide
Can I just have one a' more moondance with you, my love?
Can I just make some more romance with a' you, my love?
Well it's a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I'm trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
You know the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Can I just have one a' more moondance with you, my love?
Can I just make some more romance with a' you, my love?
One more moondance with you in the moonlight on a magic night
There's a moonlight on a magic night
Can't I just have one more dance with you my love?
57.Only A Dream
作詞:Van Morrison
Only a dream that I had in the night
Only a dream but It felt so right
We were standing in the moonlight
I was holding you tight but it was only a dream
Only a dream and that knocked me off of my feet
Only a dream, it was dancing in the street
And the big band kept on playing of Bonaparte's retreat
But it was only a dream
Only a dream but somebody tried to knock it down
Only a dream but that dream keeps hanging around
Only a dream, we were roiling in the snow
Only a dream and we just couldn't let go
I sat outside the window, it was just like Romeo
But it was only a dream
Only a dream but somebody tried to knock it down
Only a dream but that dream is still around
Up on Mockingbird hill and I'm feeling no pain
All the birds are singing, their all so sweet refrain
If I had to do it all over, I'd do the same thing again
'Cos it was only a dream
Oh 'cos it's only a dream that knocked me off of my feet
Only a dream, we were dancing out in the street
And the big band kept on playing of Bonaparte's retreat
But it was only a dream
Oh but it was only just a dream, din but it was only a dream
Oh but it was only a dream, oh what a dream
58.ThatÂ's Entrainment
作詞:Van Morrison
You by the countryside
Oh you, when you reach the sky
You and you're climbing up that hill
Well you, when we're listening to the little whippoorwill
You, when the sun goes down, you in the evening
In the morning when the sun comes 'round
You with your ballerina dance
Well, you put me back in a trance
Well, you take my breath away
Oh you, even on a cloudy day
You make me holler when you come around
You make me holler when you shake â€~em on down
That's entrainment, that's entrainment
That's entrainment, that's entrainment
That's entrainment, that's entrainment
That's entrainment
Well, you take my breath away
Oh you, even on a cloudy day
Well you, on that old sea shore
Ah you, when you're holding out your hand for more
Well you, when you come around
You, oh, you make me shake â€~em on down
Well you, in the morning
In the morning when the sun comes up
Well you, in the evening when the sun goes down
You make me holler
Make me holler when you come around
Oh, want you to shake your money maker, baby
Want you to shake â€~em on down
Shake your money maker
Shake your money maker, shake â€~em on down
That's entrainment, that's entrainment
That's entrainment
Call that's entrainment, that's entrainment
That's entrainment
That's entrainment, that's entrainment
That's entrainment, that's entrainment
Now you put me back in a trance
That's entrainment, that's entrainment
That's entrainment, that's entrainment
That's entrainment
59.Little Village
作詞:Morrison Van
Little village, baby
Ain't large enough to be a town
From a little village, baby
Ain't large enough to be a town
You gotta get away from the city
It's gonna bring you down
Heard the voice of the silence
In the evening, in the long cool summer nights
Heard the voice of the silence
In the evening, in the long cool summer nights
Telling me not to worry
Everything's gonna be all right
There's only two kinds of truth
Baby, let's get it straight from the start
There's only two kinds of truth
Let's get it straight from the start
It's all what you believe
Baby, in your head and your heart
Heard the bells ringing
Voices singing soft and low
Heard the bells ringing
Voices are singing soft and low
Way up in the mountain
Little village in the snow
Raining in the forest
Just enough to magnetize the leaves
Raining in the forest
Just enough to magnetize the leaves
We'll go walking baby
With the moonlight shining down through the trees
Little village, way up on the mountainside
Little village baby, way up on the mountainside
Far across the ocean with you and by my side
60.Gold Fish Bowl
作詞:Morrison Van
What will it take for them to leave me alone?
Don't they know I'm just a guy who sings songs?
I'm not promoting no hit record
And I don't have no t.v. show
An' I don't have no reason
To live in the gold fish bowl
I'm just doin' my gigs
An' I'm on an' off the road
Ev'rything I say is not meant to be
Set in stone
Just because they call me a celebrity
That does not make it true
'Cause I don't believe in the myth, people
So, why should you?
Jazz, blues and funk
That's not rock an' roll
Folk with a beat an
Little bit a soul
I don't have no hit record
I don't have no t.v. show
Tell me, why should I have to
Live in this gold fish bowl?
Well, the parasites and psychic vampires
Feeding on the public at large
Projectin' the shadow
Onto everyone at us
Well, the newspaper barons
Are scum of the lowest degree
And they prey on ev'rybody
They prey on you an' me
I'm singin' jazz, blues and funk
Baby, that's not rock an' roll
An' folk with a beat
An' a little bit a soul
I don't have no hit record
I don't have no t.v. show
So, why should I want to
Live in this gold fish bowl?
So why should I want to
Live in this gold fish bowl?
61.Saint James Infirmary
作詞:Irving Mills
I went down to Saint James Infirmary
For to see, for to see my baby there
Man, she was laid out on a long white table
She was so cold and so cool and so fair
Let her go, let her go, God bless her
Wherever she might be
Lord, you can search this whole
Search this whole wide world over
But she ain't never gonna find
Another lover man like me
When I die, I want you to dress me in straight lace shoes
I want a box back coat and a Stetson hat
I want a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain
So everybody gonna know that I died standing pat
62.Straight To Your Heart Like A Cannon Ball
作詞:Geroge Ivan Morrison
Well, you know sometimes it gets so hard
And everything don't seem to rhyme
I take a walk out in my backyard and go
Do do loo do do, do do loo do do
Waiting for the sun to shine and you know
Sometimes it gets so painful just like talking to yourself
When everything don't seem to have no rhyme or reason we all go
Do do loo do do, do do loo do do, waiting for the sun to shine
We move along, keep singing our song
Straight to your heart like a cannonball
La la ti da, la la ti da, doo do loo do do
Waiting for the sun to shine
Well you know, everyday we hear it through the grapevine
That's why I'm so tired of hearing it through the grapevine
anymore
Because you hear it through the grapevine
It's just a dirty rotten waste of time, we go
Do do loo do do while waiting for the sun to shine
We move along, keeping singing our song
Straight to your heart like a cannonball
La la ti da, la la ti da, doo do loo do do
We move along, keep singing our song
63.There Stands The Glass
作詞:Audrey Grisham, Russ Hull, Mary Jean Shurtz
There stands the glass
That will ease all my pain
That will settle my brain
It's my first one today
There stands the glass
That will hide all my tears
That will drown all my fears
Brother, I'm on my way
I wonder where you are tonight
I wonder if you are all right
I wonder if you think of me
In my misery
There stands the glass
Fill it up to the brim
While my troubles grow dim
It's my first one today
I wonder where you are tonight
I wonder if you are all right
I wonder if you think of me
In my misery
There stands the glass
Fill it up to the brim
While my troubles grow dim
It's my first one today
64.Get On With The Show
作詞:Van Morrison
I just can't seem to take much more of this
Got too much hassle, baby and not enough bliss
Got to give these hangers on a miss
'Cos I need some help, I just don't get
No one seems to understand what's up, what's up
What's up, so called friends come and go and things
Just don't add up, trying to make my way through
All this illusion and myth, I don't even have no safety net
Nero fiddled while Rome burnt
Napoleon met his Waterloo
Samson went spare when Delilah cut his hair
But little David slew Goliath too, oh yeah
I'm just trying to get some results
Listen baby, I'm not trying to start my own cult
Please tell me something that I don't know
I just wanna get on with the show
Nero fiddled while Rome burnt
Napoleon met his Waterloo
Samson went spare when Delilah cut his hair
But little David slew Goliath too
You'd think some program might do the trick
Let me tell you, this wall of fog is just too thick
I thought of everything but the whip
But baby, nobody on my ship is up to it
I'm just trying to get some results, some results
I'm not trying to start my own cult
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Just tell me something that I don't know
I just wanna get on with the show
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta
I just wanna get on with the show
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Just tell me something that I don't know
I just wanna get on with the show
It is better don't wait than let her go
65.Half As Much
作詞:Curley Williams
If you love me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
You're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down
If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
I know that I would never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you
If you love me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
You're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down
If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
I know that I would never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you
If you only loved me half as much as I love you
One more time
If you only loved me half as much as I love you
66.Playhouse
作詞:Van Morrison
Tear your playhouse
Tear your playhouse, tear your playhouse down
Tear your playhouse, tear your playhouse down
Oh, all that money, it's going underground
Baby, all that money
All that money, don't it make you frown
All that money, don't it make you frown
Careless love done, tore your playhouse down
All that money, all that money
All that pounds, shillings and pence
All that money, all that pounds, shillings and pence
All that money but it's just no common sense
Going down to Florida, going down to Florida
Gonna move you off my mind
Going down to Florida, I'm gonna get you off my mind
Going down to Florida just to bide my time
All that money
All that money, don't it make you frown
All that money, don't it make you frown
Careless love done, burned your playhouse down, playhouse down
Careless love done, burned your playhouse down
Burned your playhouse, burned your playhouse down
67.What Am I Living For
作詞:Art Harris, Fred Jay
What am I living for, if not for you?
Tell me what am I living for, if not for you?
What am I living for, if not for you?
Oh, nobody else, nobody else will do
What am I longing for each lonely night?
To feel your lips to mine and hold you tight
You'll be my only love my whole life through
Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do
I want you close to me, oh, that's all I know
I want you all the time, darlin', I love you so
What am I living for, if not for you?
Oh, what am I living for, child, if not for you?
I wanna know what am I livin' for if not for you?
Oh, now, nobody else, nobody else will do

68.More And More
作詞:Merle Kilgore, Webb Pierce
More and more, I'm forgetting the past
More and more, I'm living at last
Day by day, I'm losing my blues
More and more, I'm forgetting about you
You know how I tried keep you by my side
You know how I cried the day you said goodbye
Day by day, I'm losing my blues
More and more, I'm forgetting about you
But oh, how I tried keep you by my side
And oh, how I cried the day you said goodbye
Day by day, I'm losing my blues
More and more, I'm forgetting about you
Day by day, I'm losing my blues
More and more, I'm forgetting about you
69.If You Loved Me
作詞:Van Morrison
If you love me
You will give your heart
Why should we be apart
If you love me
If you love me
You will know the truth
I wasn't born to lose
And I love you
Affinity and communication
That makes reality
Understanding is the first thing
It means so much to me
If I love you
I will find the key
If it's meant to be
'Cause I love you
Affinity and communication
That is reality
Understanding is the first thing
It means so much to me
If I love you
I will find the key
If it's meant to be
'Cause I love you
If you love me
70.What's Wrong With This Picture?
作詞:Morrison Van
What's wrong with this picture?
There's something I'm not seein' here
What's wrong with this picture?
Something's not exactly clear
What's wrong with this picture?
Does it look like it's just another sting, sting?
'Cos it don't mean a thing
If it ain't got that swing and ring a ding ding
What's wrong with this picture?
Doesn't anybody see
That's who everyone thought
That I used to be
What's wrong with this picture?
It's only just hangin' on a wall
So you can go right back to sleep
And just forget about it all
Because I'm not that person anymore
I'm living in the present time
Baby, don't you understand
I've left all that jive behind
You can't believe what you read in the paper
Or half the news that's on TV
Or the gossip of the neighbors
Or anyone who doesn't want you to be free
I'm not that person anymore, no, no, no, no, no
I'm always living in the present time
Don't you understand
I left all that jive behind
What's wrong with this picture?
It's only hangin' on the wall
Why don't we take it down
And just forget about it all
'Cause I didn't need at all

作詞:Morrison Van
What will it take for them to leave me alone
Don't they know I'm just a guy who sings songs?
I'm not promoting no hit record, hell, I don't have no TV show
And I don't have no reason to live in a goldfish bowl
I'm just doin' my gigs and I'm on and off the road
Everything I say is not meant to be set in stone
Just because they call me a celebrity, that does not make it
true
'Cos I don't believe in the myth people, so why should you?
Jazz, blues an' funk, that's not rock 'n roll
Folk with a beat and a little bit of soul

Tell me why should I have to live in this goldfish bowl
Well, there's parasites and psychic vampires feedin' on
The public at large, projectin' their shadow onto everyone else
Well, the newspaper barons are scum of the lowest degree
And they prey on everybody, they prey on you and me

And if they wonder why
Just take a look, that's country scene
Driving through the land
Understanding blue and green
Sometimes I feel like fainting
Well, I've been seeing red
Sometimes I feel like fainting
Well, I've been seeing red
We go on brother, one morning
We saw blue and green was
Standing 'round my bed
Blue and green
It's the color that I see
Blue and green
Well, that doesn't mean
That you should envy me
Mean what I say and say what I mean
Blue and green
Well, early in the morning
Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing red
Well, early in the morning

And green hole in my head
Blue and green
Sky is blue and Mother Nature is green
Keep on driving through the land
Take in a little look at the country scene
74.Stranded
作詞:Van Morrison
I'm stranded at the edge of the world
It's a world I don't know
Got nowhere to go
Feels like I'm stranded
And I'm stranded
Between that ol' devil and the deep blue sea
And nobody's gonna tell me
Tell me what, what time it is
Everyday, everyday
It's hustle, hustle time, hustle time
Everyday and every way
One more, one more mountain to climb
It's leaving me stranded
In my own little island
With my eyes open wide
But I'm feeling stranded
Every, every, everyday
It's hustle time
Every way
One more mountain to climb
I'm stranded
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
There ain't nowhere else to be
'Cept right here and I'm stranded

77.Meaning Of Loneliness
作詞:Morrison Van
Lost in a strange city, nowhere to turn
Far cry from the streets that I came from
It can get lonely when you're traveling hard
But you can even be lonely, standing in your own backyard
Nobody knows the existential dread
Of the things that go on inside someone else's head
Whether it be trivial or something that Dante said
But baby, nobody knows the meaning of loneliness
No matter how well you know someone, you can only ever guess
How can you ever really know somebody else?
It takes more than a lifetime, just to get to know yourself
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness
I have to say a word about solitude
For the soul it sometimes, they say, can be good
And I'm partial to it myself, well, I must confess
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness
Well, there's Sartre and Camus, Nietzsche and Hesse
If you dig deep enough, you're gonna end up in distress
And no one escapes having to live life under duress
And no one escapes the meaning of loneliness
Well, they say keep it simple when it gets to be a mess
And fame and fortune ever brought anyone happiness
I must be lucky, some of my friends think that I'm really
blessed
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness
No no nobody knows the meaning of loneliness
No no nobody knows the meaning of loneliness
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness
78.Comfortably Numb (Live) (Edit)
作詞:David Jon Gilmour, Roger Waters
Hello
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone home?
Come on now
I hear you're feeling down
Well, I can ease your pain
And get you on your feet again
Relax
I need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts?
There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I got that feeling once again, I can't explain
You would not understand, this is not how I am
I have become comfortably numb
Okay
Just a little pinprick
There'll be no more
But you may feel a little sick
Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working good
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on it's time to go
There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone, I cannot put my finger on it
now
The child is grown, the dream is gone
And I have become comfortably numb
79.Hey Mr. DJ
作詞:Van Morrison
Listen Mr. DJ
Won't you play me something slow?
Play me the songs for the lonely ones
Play me something that I know
Hey, Mr. DJ
I'm in a sad mood tonight
Play me something just for me and my baby
Won't you make everything alright?
I'm gonna turn it way down low
Leave it on all night long 'til the morning comes
Like my lover, my friend, until the end
And that special someone
Hey, Mr. DJ
Play me Rainbow 66
'Cause I'm drifting like a ship out on the fog
And I just don't know what's coming next
Gonna turn it way down low
Leave it on all night long until the morning comes
For my lover, my friend, until the end
And that special someone
Hey, Mr. DJ
Play me Rainbow 66
'Cause I'm drifting like a ship out on the sea
And I just don't know what's coming next
Well, Mr. DJ
I'm in a sad mood tonight
Play me something for me and my darling
Want you to make everything alright
Hey, Mr. DJ
Hey, Mr. DJ
Hey, Mr. DJ
Hey, Mr. DJ
80.Down The Road
作詞:Van Morrison
Well, it's down the road I go
And I got those worried
Lonesome homesick Jones
Way on down the road
Well, it's down the road I go
Well, I got the blues
From way down in New Orleans
Way on down the road
And I got to be so far away
Oh, don't you see
All our memories, dreams and reflections
That keep haunting me
Well, it's down the road I go
And I hear those gypsy voices
Calling me way on down the road
Well, I got to be
So far away in my memory
Dreams and reflections come on
Keep on back haunting me
Well, it's down the road I go
Well, I got the blues
From down in New Orleans
Way on down the road
Well, it's down the road I go
Well, I've got the worried
Lonesome homesick Jones
Way on down the road
Way on down the road
Oh, down the road
Way on down the road baby come on
Way on down the road
Trying to find my way back home
Trying to find my way back home
Further on down the road
Trying to find my way back home
Further on down the road
Down the road of peace
Down the road of peace
Down the road of peace, baby
81.Back Street Affair
作詞:Billy Wallace
You didn't know I wasn't free
When you fell in love with me
And with all your young heart
You learned to care
It brought you shame and disgrace
The world has tumbled in your face
Because they call our love
A back street affair
They say you wrecked my home
I'm a husband that's gone wrong
They don't know the sorrow
That we had to bear
While the one I was tied to
Was the first to be untrue
How can they call our love
A back street affair
Well, we have each other now
That's all that matters anyhow
While the judgment
Of gossips never fair
We'll just be brave and strong
Then someday they'll see they're wrong
So, let them call our love
A back street affair
We'll be free to love someday
When all the talk has died away
And the happiness we hoped for
Then we'll share
And I'll climb a mountain high
And the world will hear me cry
That our love is not
A backstreet affair
82.Once In A Blue Moon
作詞:Morrison Van
Once in a blue moon
Somethin' good comes along
Once in a blue moon
Every thing's not goin' wrong
When you get weary
Beatin' on the same old gong
Once in a blue moon
Someone like you comes along
Once every once in a while
Something comes along that feels just right
Once every once in a while
Just like switchin' on an electric light
And sometimes you try
Till you're blue in the face
But when you get that feelin'
Nothin's gonna take its place
Once in a blue moon
There's a thing called happiness
It happens when you're in
A state of natural grace
When the wind is blowin'
All around the fence
I get that happy feelin'
Things start makin' sense
All just feels so lucky
That you just can't go wrong
Once in a blue moon
Someone like you comes along
Once in a blue moon
There's a thing called happiness
It happens when you're in
A state of natural grace
When the grass is growin'
All around the fence
You get that happy feelin'
Everythin' starts makin' sense
And you get so lucky
That you can't go wrong
Once in a blue moon
Somethin' comes along
Once in a blue moon
Someone like you comes along
Once in a blue moon
Somethin' good comes along
Once in a blue moon
Someone like you comes along
83.Pay The Devil
作詞:Van Morrison
One man's meat is another man's poison
One man's gain can be another man's loss
I'm traveling down the lonely highway
'Cause a rolling stone don't gather no moss
Once I thought I could live the kind of life I wanted
But the wayward wind made me restless and a fool of me
'Cause I thought I could settle for the nine to five life
Well, I guess it just was never meant to be
Now people talk and they speculate about what other people would
do
But they can't put themselves within my shoes
It used to be my life, now it's become my story
I'm heading down this highway with those blues
Well, I'd love to see the sun setting on the riverside
Just to go back home, yeah, I want to settle down
Well, I have to pay the devil for my music
Why I have to keep on with this roaming around?
Have to pay the devil for my music, yeah
Keep on rolling from town to town
Have to pay the devil for to play my music
Keep on rolling from town to town
84.Dumb Dumb George
作詞:Van Morrison
This here's the story about dumb, dumb George
Who came up to Boston one sunny afternoon
He drove up from New York City and he was freaky
And he wanted to record me and I said
'George, you're dumb', and he said, 'I know
Why do you think I make so much money?
I wanna do a record that'll make number one'
Dumb, dumb
85.Celtic New Year
作詞:Van Morrison
If I don't see you through the week
See you through the window
See you next time that we're talking on the telephone
And don't see you in that Indian summer
Then I want to see you further on up the road
I said, ‽Oh won't you come back?
I have to see you, my dear
Won't you come back in the Celtic New Year?
In the Celtic New Yearâ€
If I don't see you when I'm going down Louisiana
If I don't see you when I'm down on Bourbon Street
If you don't see me when I'm singing, ‽Jack of diamondsâ€
If you don't see me when I'm on my lucky streak
Whoa, I want you, want you to come on back
I've made it very clear
I want you to come back home in the Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year
If I don't see you when the bonfires are burning, burning
If I don't see you when we're singing, ‽The Gloriana tuneâ€
If I've got to see you when it's raining deep inside the forest
I got to see you at the waning of the moon
Said, ‽Oh, won't you come on back?
Want you to be of good cheer
Come back home on the Celtic New Yearâ€
Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year
Come on home, come on home
Come on home, come on home
In the Celtic New Year
In the Celtic New Year
Come on home, come on home
Come on home, come on home
In the Celtic New Year
86.Keep Mediocrity At Bay
作詞:Van Morrison
You gotta fight every day to keep mediocrity at bay
You got to fight every day to keep mediocrity at bay
Got to fight with all your might not to get in the bleeding
heart's way
You got to fight for your rights, you can't bury your head in
the sand
You gotta fight for your rights, you can't just bury your head
in the sand
Politics and religion, superstition go hand in hand
Well you're going through the motions
And they can't hear a word you say
Well you're going through the motions
They don't want to hear a word you say
Got to keep boredom at bay and keep mediocrity away
Got to fight every day to keep mediocrity at bay
Got to fight every day to keep mediocrity at bay
Got to fight with all your might not to get in the bleeding
heart's way
You got to fight with all your might not to get in the bleeding
heart's way
87.Whatever Happened To PJ Proby?
作詞:Van Morrison
Whatever happened to PJ Proby?
Wonder can you fix it Jim
Where the hell do you think is Scott Walker?
My memory's getting so dim
Don't have no frame of reference no more
Not even Screaming Lord Sutch
Without him now there's no Raving Loony Party
Nowadays I guess there's not much
To relate to anymore
'Less you wanna be mediocre
Ain't nothin' new under the sun
And the moon, and the stars now chum
I'm makin' my way down the highway
Still got a monkey on my back
Facing it head on and doing it my way
Please, can you cut me some slack?
There's nothin' to relate to anymore
'Less you wanna be mediocre
Ain't nothin' new under the sun
And the moon, and the stars now chum
Still making my way down the highway
Still got a monkey on my back
Facing head on and doing it my way
Please, can you cut me some slack?
All the cards fell so many rounds
Down the road a piece Jack
Saw a bus comin' and I had to get on it
I'm still trying to find my way back
Whatever happened to all those dreams a while ago
Whatever happened way across the sea
Whatever happened to the way it's supposed to happen
And whatever happened to me?
88.Let's Talk About Us
作詞:Otis Blackwell
We talked about the birdies
That fly up in the trees
We talked about the moon
And the stars we couldn't see
But you keep on pretending
You don't know what's wrong with me
Come on, let's talk, about us
We talked about the good times
That made us laugh and sigh
We talked about the bad times
That brought tears to our eyes
Now, I think it's about time
For you to realize
Come on, let's talk, about us
Hey
Dear, I swear I'll love you, 'til the very end
But I don't plan on stickin' around
If it's just to be your friend
We've talked, and talked, and talked, and talked
But there's been nothin' said
The things that you've been talkin' about
Just don't stick to my head
Sometimes I think, little girl
That your heart is filled with lead
Come on, let's talk, about us
Well, dear I swear I'll love you, oh, 'til the very end
Well, I don't plan on stickin' around
If it's just to be your friend
We've talked, and talked, and talked, and talked
And there's been nothin' said
The thing that you've been talkin' about
Just don't stick to my head
My darlin' little girl
I think that your heart is made of lead
Come on, let's talk, about us
Come on, let's talk, about us
Well, well, well, well, well
Come on, let's talk, about us
89.She's My Baby
作詞:Van Morrison
Well, I'm so blue
I'm thinking about you
I'm feeling so blue
I'm feeling so sad
I just don't understand
I'm feeling so sad
And in the midnight
I don t turn off the light
Until the daylight
Well, I toss and I turn
And my heart it still burns
Till I see her again
She's my lady, she's my baby, she's my lady
She's my baby, she's my lady, she's my baby
She's my lady, now, now, now, now
In the morning I wake
To go get food on my plate
But I just can't eat
And when I go in the cafe
To sit down at my seat
I don't have egg on my face
When it stops and it starts
It just tears me apart
Like a pain in my heart
But it's been misunderstood
Somebody's breaking the rules
And I'm nobody's fool
Well, well, well
She's my lady, she's my baby, she's my lady
She's my baby, she's my lady, she's my baby
She's my lady, now, now, now, now
When it's so high
I can reach for the sky
But when it's so low
I got nowhere to go
When it goes wrong
I just don't belong
When it goes right
It's clean out of sight
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm feeling so glad
I'm on top of the world
When I see you again
Well, it's so true
I been thinking about you
Baby, you're my flame
When it goes down
Down on the ground
When it goes down
But when it goes up
It just fills up my cup
When it goes up
Well, well, well
She's my lady, she's my baby, she's my lady
She's my baby, she's my lady, she's my baby
She's my lady, now, now, now, now
90.Choppin' Wood
作詞:Van Morrison
You wired the trains and went back home to St. Claire's shores
Before you became a spark down at the yard
You were passing through those hungry years alone
You were just trying to make a living out in Detroit
When you came back off the boats, you didn't want to go anywhere
You sit down to TV in your favorite chair
You watch the big picture fade away down at Harland and Wolff
But you still kept on choppin' wood
And you came back home to Belfast
So you could be with us like
You lived your life of quiet desperation on the side
Going to the shipyard in the morning on your bike
Well, the spark was gone but you carried on
You always did the best you could
You sent for us once but everything fell through
But you still kept on choppin' wood, choppin' wood
Well, you came back home to Belfast
So you could be with us like
And you lived a life of quiet desperation on the side
Going to the shipyard in the morning on your bike
Well, the spark was gone but you carried on
Well, you did just the best that you could
You sent for us one time but everything fell through
But you still kept on choppin' wood
Kept on choppin' wood
Kept on choppin' wood
Local man chops wood
You know you did the best you could
Well, everything just fell through
Kept on choppin' wood
Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop
Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop
Chop, chop, chop, keep on choppin'
Chop, chop, chop, choppin' wood

96.Man Has To Struggle
作詞:Morrison Van
Man makes his money and they call him rich
Deep down inside he knows that life's still a bitch
Man tries to keep things but they're taken away
Man has to struggle all the live long day
Man has to sweat and toil his life filled with trouble
Man got to step and fetch it on the double
Man has to work so hard to make it all pay
Man has to struggle all the live long day
Man keeps on moving 'cause he can't keep still
Man has to set his goals and climb up the hill
Man sees the mountains and the deep blue sky
Man has to struggle till the day that he die
Well, yes, siree Bob, them there's the breaks
That's how it is my friend don't make no mistake
Man has to take some action all of the time
Man by his nature's never satisfied
Man just can't vegetate no matter what they say
Man has to make it all the live long day
Man has to create karma that's the way that it is
Man has to keep on going way beyond his will
Man has to keep on being 'cause there's nothing else
And man just always has to go for himself
Take all the gurus when they meditate
Transcend the mundane into some altered state
You just might get there but you'll have to pay
Man's got to struggle all the live tong day
Well, yes, siree now, Bob them there's the breaks
That's how it is my friend don't make no mistake
Man has to watch the weather and the food that he eats
Man has to keep fit else he's prone to disease
No matter what he does there's stress every which way
Man has to struggle all the live long day
Man is in conflict with his natural self
Man has to suppress his own desires and instincts
Man has to work so hard to keep them at bay
Man has to struggle all the live long day
Man was told that he was born in original sin
By people long ago that were conning him
Man is so out of touch he can't trust himself
But man's still got to win by cunning and stealth
作詞:Wes Farrell, Bert Russell
Goodbye baby, so long girl
I know you ain't gonna like it
But I'm stepping right
Out in your world
But I'm coming to your party
And I won't be able to stay
But I'm gonna kiss you
One more time then I'm going away
Goodbye baby, hmm
Baby goodbye
You made lonely
Yeah, you made me hurt
Just like a fool I gave you candy
And you fed me dirt
But I'm coming to your party
And just before the break of day
I'm gonna touch you
One more time then I'm going away
Goodbye baby, goodbye
Baby goodbye, hmm
I see that train a-coming, down the long lonely track
Girl, you know I gotta go on home now
But deep down in your heart
You know that I'm coming back
And I'm gonna look for you at your party
'Cause all the time I know I'll find you there
And I'm gonna dance with you
One more time, oh yeah
Goodbye baby
Baby goodbye
(Sing it to me one more time)
Goodbye baby
(See you around sometime)
Baby goodbye
98.This Has Got To Stop
作詞:Van Morrison
I'm giving you my heart and my soul
I've given you more than you'll ever know
I'm giving you just about everything I can
Can't you see that I'm just only one man, yeah?
I took you out to the picture show
Then I took you walkin' outdoors
I walked you up and down the block
Then I warned you, baby, this has got to stop
This has got to stop, you're way over the top
Pack my things and walk, we can't even talk
This has got to stop, I just had enough
I'm gonna call you a bluff, walk you one more lap
And I watched you watching me
As I watched you walk away from me
And I went off to that far country
I took a plane out to that Newfoundland
And you said to me that you didn't understand
This has got to stop, you're way over the top
I'm gonna pack my things and walk, we don't even talk
This has got to stop, baby, I just had enough
I'm gonna call you a bluffer, walk me one more lap
Well, I came back home and I burnt our house down
I watched it crumble to the ground
Oh, it caved in like a piece of balsa wood
I turned to you and said, 'Baby, this is just no good'
And I worked and I tried to build it all back up again
The day you told me that you had really changed
Then you knocked down all my castles in the sand
Then I said, 'Baby, I know now just where we stand'
This has got to stop, you're way over the top
Pack my bags and walk, we don't even talk
This has got to stop, I've just had enough
I'm gonna call you a bluffer and this has got to stop
This has got to stop, moving over the top
I've just had enough, gonna call you a bluffer
This has got to stop, this has got to stop
Moving over the top, this has got to stop
99.Evening in June
作詞:Van Morrison
By the light of the moon
When the night holds the secrets
Of the sleepy lagoon
I'm contemplating moonlight on the water
When I'm walking with you
On an evening in June
On an evening in June
It can get so sentimental
When I'm thinking of you
And I can't think of anything
Except being with you
When the summer is through
On an evening in June
On an evening in June
Well, it lifts me up
When I'm talking to you
On an evening in June
When the flowers are in bloom
And the sky is so blue
Well, there's so many things taking place
That it's hard to keep up with it all
Keep your eye on the ball
And to make the right call
When we're longing for fall
On this evening in June
On an evening in June
Well, it lifts me up
When I'm talking to you
On an evening in June
When the flowers are in bloom
And the sky is so blue
Well, there's so many things taking place
That it's hard to keep up with it all
Keep your eye on the ball
And to make the right call
When we're longing for fall
On this evening in June
By the sleepy lagoon
On an evening in June
By the light of the moon
By the sleepy lagoon
On an evening in June
On an evening in June
By the sleepy lagoon
By the light of the moon
By the sleepy lagoon
On an evening in June
