Expecting Rain

Just thinking of a series of dreams

While riding on a train goin’ west
I fell asleep for to take my rest
I dreamed a dream that made me sad
Concerning myself and the first few friends I had

You're gonna have to find yourself another best friend somehow.

Yer gonna make me give myself a good talking to.

You're gonna have to leave me now, I know

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door

...just like so many times before....

The sun keeps shining and the North Wind keeps picking up speed

Blowin' through the buttons of our coats,
Blowin' through the letters that we wrote

The crashing waves roll over me
As I stand upon the sand
Wait for you to come
And grab hold of my hand

You’re beautiful beyond words
You’re beautiful to me
You can make me cry
Never say goodbye

It's fare thee well, my darlin' true,
I'm leavin' in the first hour of the morn
I'm bound all for the bay of Mexico
Or maybe the coast of Californ

I can't help it if I'm lucky

Little rooster crowin’

When your rooster crows at the break of dawn,
Look out your window, and I'll be gone

If you got to go, Pilgrim, go

All your seasick sailors, they're all rowing home

Gypsy queens will play your grand finale
Way down in some Tularosa alley
Maybe in La Rio Pecas valley
Billy, you're so far away from home
Billy, you're so far away from home

And you're driftin' too far from shore.

A song will lift as the mainsail shifts
And the boat drifts on to the shoreline

On A Rockin' Boat

Whole lot of hearts shaking tonight

Shake, shake Mama, like a ship goin' out to sea

Now and then there's a fool such as I
Pardon me if I'm sentimental, came to say goodbye

God bless.

May God bless and keep you always,
may your wishes all come true....
