Hello 1973

Roll Over Lay Down

When I got home that night early one morning
Seeing the note written in ink pinned to the door
Drinking the drink cold from the fridge on the table
I drank a toast you were the most the night before
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over it's a long way where I've been
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over lay down
When I get home tomorrow night after this morning
Show me the care you showed in the note the night before
Maybe I won't take a drink from the table
Reckon I'll lay me straight down on the floor
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over it's a long way where I've been
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over lay down
When I get home tomorrow night after this morning
Show me the day, show me the note the night before
Maybe I won't take a drink from the table
Reckon I'll lay me straight down on the floor
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over it's a long way where I've been
Roll over lay down and let me in
Roll over lay down

Claudie

It's so long since I sang songs to you
I forget all the words I once knew
I could look back
But I can't waste the time
Did it matter
They sometimes didn't rhyme
It's so long since I sang songs for you
It's so long since you smile just for me
Now your smile's just an old use to be
Does it matter
That I can take the time
Would you rather
I write you one more line
Can my songs once again be for you
Claudie made a fool out of me
Made me find another place to be
I've been living alone
In a house that wasn't my home
With Claudie is the place I want to be
When I left did you think of me crying
Did you care that I felt I was dying
I pretended
That I don't give a damn
All along
I've know what I really am
I'm a fool little Claudie just for you
Claudie made a fool out of me
Made me find another place to be
I've been living alone
In a house that wasn't my home
With Claudie is the place I want to be

A reason of living


I felt in need of some loving
So I sat down on a wall
I tried to find a reason for living
But I couldn't find a reason at all
So I owned up to my maker
And I started to say a prayer
I waited for an answer
But there wasn't anybody there
I thought there should have been someone
But I wasn't quite sure who
It finished me to find there was no-one
That I could take my troubles to
So I knelt down by my bedside
And I started to say a prayer
It was when I asked for nothing
I could feel that there was somebody there
I'm looking still, but it's easy
'Cause I know which way to go
It doesn't matter how long it takes me
'Cause there's someone there to help me who knows
All the things that I am after
All the loving that I want to share
It's so hard but I don't mind
'Cause there really is somebody there
I felt in need of some loving
So I sat down on a wall
I tried to find a reason for living
But I couldn't find a reason at all
So I owned up to my maker
And I started to say a prayer
I waited for an answer
But there wasn't anybody there

Blue eyed lady



Little blue eyed lady, how come you're all alone?
I've been asking, no-one seems to know
To whom do you belong little blue eyed lady?
The band are really moving, everyone is grooving around
Little lady, you're still sitting down
Excuse me if you will, little blue eyed lady
The party's nearly over, your eyes still read the same
Are you looking for one who never came?
Are you a passing cloud or a new found baby?
Little new found baby, how come you're all alone?
I've been asking, no-one seems to know
Are you a passing cloud little blue eyed lady
