My Sunday feeling is coming on over me.
My Sunday feeling is coming on over me,
Now that the night is over.
Got to clear my head so I can see.
Till I get to put together,
that old feeling won't let me be.

Won't somebody tell me where I laid my head last night?
Won't somebody tell me where I laid my head last night?
I really don't remember,
But with one more cigarette and I think I might.
Till I get to put together,
well that old feeling can't get me right.

Need some assistance, have you listened to what I said?
Need some assistance, have you listened to what I said?
Oh, I don't feel so good.
Need someone to help me to my bed.
Till I get to put together,
that old feeling is in my head.

SOME DAY THE SUN WON'T SHINE FOR YOU
In the morning, gonna get my things together.
Packing up and I'm leaving this place.
I don't believe you'll cry, there'll be a smile upon your face.

I didn't think how much you'd hurt me.
That's something that I laugh about.
Bring in the good times, baby.
And let the bad times out.

That old sun keeps on shining,
But someday it won't shine for you.
In the morning I'll be leaving.
I'll leave your mother too.

BEGGAR'S FARM
You're taking chances and your reputation's going down.
Going out in the night-time, you think you made no sound.
But you don't fool me 'cos I know what you feel.
If you ignore all the things I see, someday soon’s gonna find you
Way down on Beggar's Farm, way down on Beggar’s Farm

I pay my money for no returns.
I think I need you gonna find someone.
Oh, you don't fool me 'cos I know what you feel.
When you go out I ask you why.
And I won't worry when I see you lying down on Beggar's Farm.

When you run to me, gonna turn away.
Won't even listen when you try to say
that you were only foolin’ ‘round 'cos I know what you feel.
But if you ask me nicely, woman I'll wake up early one day soon
and I'll visit you down on Beggar's Farm.

MOVE ON ALONE
I feel so sad now that she's gone,
I've been loving that woman too long.
There is no place to go because my friends have all moved,
Got nothing but sit in the sun.
Got tired of crying, guess I'll move on alone.

My bed is so empty and my heart is grown cold,
Guess I'll just die before I grow old.
The place is untidy, that's `cos I ain't done my dirt,
I just grown tired of thinking.
Got tired of crying, guess I'll move on alone.

SERENADE TO A CUCKOO
(Instrumental)

DHARMA FOR ONE
She's really turned on by the television, and vice versa.
Here's a song called, and it still can be described.
Yes, right, rearranged though nevertheless.
A new lease on life, in other words, it's just a bit louder.
“Dharma For One''.

Dharma, seek and you will find
truth within your mind, Dharma.

Dharma, each to his own we say,
together we'll end astray, Dharma, Dharma.

Truth is like freedom, it doesn't fool me
Be true to yourself, never think that you're free.
And Dharma will come eventually, yeah.
Dharma, Dharma, Dharma.

Dharma, seek and you will find
truth within your mind, Dharma, Dharna.

Truth is like freedom, it doesn't fool me
Be true to yourself, never think that you're free.
And Dharma will come eventually, yeah.
Dharma, Dharma, Dharma, Dharma

IT'S BREAKING ME UP
So many long days. in so many ways.
I try to get through to what lies deep inside of you.
Oh, baby. I said, you're breaking me up, woman.
Yeah, you're breaking me down.
You're lying in little pieces
Scattered all around.

You're doing your worst to see me get hurt.
You're waiting to see the tears running out of me.
But, oh, baby, I said you're breaking me up, woman.
You're breaking me down.
You're lying in little pieces
Scattered all around.

My teares have run dry and you wonder why.
I've found a new woman who don't do the things you can.
Oh, baby, I said you're breaking me up, woman.
You're breaking me down.
You're lying in little pieces
Scattered all around.

CAT'S SQUIRREL
(Instrumental)

A SONG FOR JEFFREY
Gonna lose my way tomorrow,
gonna give away my car.
I'd take you along with me,
but you would not go so far.

Don't see what I do not want to see,
you don't hear what I don't say.
Won't be what I don't want to be,
I continue in my way.

Don't see, see, see where I'm goin',
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin',
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin' to,
I don't want to.

Everyday I see the mornin'
come on in the same old way.
I tell myself tomorrow brings me
things I would not dream today.

Gonna lose my way tomorrow,
gonna give away my car.
I'd take you along with me,
but you would not go so far.

Don't see what I do not want to see,
you don't hear what I don't say.
Won't be what I don't want to be,
I continue in my way.

Don't see, see, see where I'm goin',
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin',
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin' to,
I don't want to.

ROUND
(Instrumental)

ONE FOR JOHN GEE
(Instrumental)

LOVE STORY
Going back in the morning time
to see if my love has come around, yeah.
Going back in the morning time
to see if my love has come around, yeah.
I know what I will find
That she is wasting time
She could be picking roses.

Going back in the morning time
to see if my love has seen the light, yeah.
Going back in the morning time
to see if my love has seen the light, yeah.
Oh, I told her last night
She should improve her sight
She could be painting the roof.

Going back in the morning time
to see if my love has come around, yeah.
Going back in the morning time
to see if my love has come around, yeah.
She offered me no sound,
Her head is in the ground,
She could be calling for winter.

CHRISTMAS SONG
Once in royal David's city stood a lonely cattle shed,
Where a mother held her baby.
You'd do well to remember the things he later said.
When you're stuffing yourselves at the christmas parties,
You'll just laugh when I tell you to take a running jump.
You're missing the point I'm sure does not need making
That christmas spirit is not what you drink.

So how can you laugh when your own mother's hungry,
And how can you smile when the reasons for smiling are wrong?
And if I just messed up your thoughtless pleasures,
Remember, if you wish, this is just a christmas song.

Hey! santa! pass us that bottle, will you?
