| Goodbye Yellow Brick Road [www.youtube.com] When are you gonna come down When are you going to land I should have stayed on the farm I should have listened to my old man You know you can't hold me forever I didn't sign up with you I'm not a present for your friends to open This boy's too young to be singing the blues [chorus] So goodbye yellow brick road Where the dogs of society howl You can't plant me in your penthouse I'm going back to my plough Back to the howling old owl in the woods Hunting the horny back toad Oh I've finally decided my future lies Beyond the yellow brick road What do you think you'll do then I bet that'll shoot down your plane It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics To set you on your feet again Maybe you'll get a replacement There's plenty like me to be found Mongrels who ain't got a penny Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground [repeat chorus] |
Green Green Grass Of Home [www.youtube.com] The old home town looks the same As I step down from the train And there to meet me is my Mama and Papa Down the road I look and there runs Mary Hair of gold and lips like cherries It's good to touch the green, green grass of home Yes, they'll all come to meet me Arms reaching, smiling sweetly It's good to touch the green, green grass of home The old house is still standing, Though the paint is cracked and dry And there's that old oak tree that I used to play on Down the lane I'll walk with my sweet Mary Hair of gold and lips like cherries It's good to touch the green, green grass of home Then I awake and look around me At four gray walls that surround me And I realize that, yes I was only dreamin' For there's a guard and there's a sad old padre Arm and arm we'll walk at daybreak Again I'll touch the green, green grass of home Yes, they'll all come to see me In the shade of that old oak tree As they lay me 'neath the green, green grass of home **** Right or wrong, good or bad matters very little. In the end HOME is where your heart is. |
