Brown Eyed Girl
Hey, where did we go, days when the rains came
Down in the hollow, playin' a new game
Laughing and a runnin', hey, hey, skipping and a jumping
In the misty morning fog with our hearts a thumpin' and you
My brown eyed girl, you my brown eyed girl

And whatever happened to Tuesday and so slow
Goin' down the old mine with a transistor radio
Standing in the sunlight laughing, hidin' behind a rainbow's wall
Slipping and sliding all along the water fall with you
My brown eyed girl, you my brown eyed girl

Do you remember when we used to sing
Sha, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, te, da, just like that
Sha, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, te, da, la, te, da

So hard to find my way, now that I'm all on my own
I saw you just the other day, my how you have grown
Cast my memory back there, lord, sometime I'm overcome thinking bout
Making love in the green grass behind the stadium with you
My brown eyed girl, you my brown eyed girl

Do you remember when we used to sing
Sha, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, te, da - lyin' in the green grass
Sha, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, te, da - bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit
Sha, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, te, da

T.B. Sheets
Now listen, Julie baby, it ain't natural for you to cry in the midnight
It ain't natural for you to cry when the midnight come
Until the wee small hours, long 'fore the break of dawn, oh lord
Now Julie, there ain't nothin' on my mind
More further way than what you're lookin' for
I see the way you jumped at me, lord, from behind the door
And looked into my eyes
Your little star struck innuendos, inadequacies and foreign bodies
And the sunlight shining through the crack in the window pane
Numbs my brain
And the sunlight shining through the crack in the window pane
Numbs my brain, oh lord

Ha, so open up the window and let me breathe
I said open up the window and let me breathe
I'm looking down to the street below, lord, I cried for you
I cried, I cried for you, oh lord

The cool room, lord is a fool's room
The cool room, lord is a fool's room
And I can almost smell your t.b. sheets
And I can almost smell your t.b. sheets
On your sick bed

I gotta go, I gotta go
And you said, "Please stay, I wanna, I wanna,
I want a drink of water, I want a drink of water,
Go in the kitchen get me a drink of water."
I said, "I gotta go, gotta go, baby."
I said, "I'll send, I'll send somebody around later
You know we got John comin' around here later
With a bottle of wine for you, baby, but I gotta go."

The cool room, lord, is a fool's room
The cool room, lord, lord, is a fool's room, fool's room
And I can almost smell your t.b. sheets
I can almost smell your t.b. sheets, t.b.

I gotta go, yeah
I'll send around, send around one that grumbles later on, baby
I'll see what I can pick up for you, you know
Yeah, I got a few things I going, too
Don't worry about it, don't worry about it, don't worry
Huh uh, go, go, go
I've gotta go, gotta go, gotta, gotta go, gotta go, gotta go
All right, all right

I turned on the radio
Wanna hear a few tunes, turn on the radio for you
There you go, there you go
There you go, baby, there you go

You'll be all right, too
I know it ain't funny, it ain't funny at all, baby
Laying in the cool room, man, laying in the cool room
