A THOUSAND SONGSCopyright (c) 1969Whitfeld Music (BMI)All rights reservedBill Steelews21@cornell.edu by Bill SteeleI woke up smelling bacon with a pinecone in my sideI stuck my head out in the morning sunThere was one guy fixing breakfast and twenty singing songsSo I knew that breakfast never would get doneI crawled out of my sleeping bag and picked up my guitarTo start the day with coffee and a songWe`d built a singing city underneath the spreading treesTo join it all you do is sing along With started in the morning with a hymn to the sun We sang through lunch and dinner and we`ve hardly just begun We`ll try to sing a thousand songs before this day is done And tomorrow there`ll be a thousand moreI met a girl down by the fire from a green Missouri farmShe sang a song she said her mother madeShe sang about her father and the love he had to giveAnd I offered her a song of mine in tradeShe said she didn`t have the time; she had to catch a trainAnd I feel a little sorry now and thenBut when you hear a thousand songs I guess it has to beThere`s some that you`ll never hear againA kid came up and said hello and said he knew my nameAnd he thought my songs were really where it`s atAnd then he sang a song of his - he said it wasn`t muchBut I wish that I could write one song like thatThey used to say that making songs was only for the fewBut we took these old guitars and proved them wrongFor music is a language most anyone can learnAnd if you sing then you can write a songWe sang around a lantern when we should have been in bedAnd everybody took a turn or twoWhenever one crawled off to sleep, another took his placeAnd everybody brought in something newI used to think I knew most every song there was to knowI could sing out any one you cared to callBut now I`d need three lifetimes just to learn what`s going roundAnd if everybody`s got a song, then no one`s got em allrecorded by Bill Steele on Garbagefilename[ THOUSONGplay.exe THOUSONGSF===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY===
