Poor people are poor people -
And they don't understand
A man's got to make whatever he wants-
And take it with his own hands.
Poor people stay poor people -
And they never get to see
Someone's got to win in the human race-
If it isn't you, then it has to be me.
So smile while you're makin' it-
Laugh while you're takin' it-
Even though you're fakin' it-
Nobody's gonna know.
Nobody's gonna know.
It's no use mumbling.
It's no use grumbling.
Life just isn't fair-
There's no easy days
There's no easy ways
Just get out there and do it!
And sing and they'll sing your song-
Laugh while you're getting on-
Smile and they'll string along-
And nobody's gonna know.
Nobody's gonna know.
Nobody's gonna know.

If you have a friend on whom you think
you can rely - You are a lucky man!
If you've found the reason to live on and
not to die - You are a lucky man!
Preachers and poets and scholars don't know it,
Temples and statues and steeples won't show it,
If you've got the secret just try not to blow
it - Stay a lucky man!
If you've found the meaning of the truth
in this old world- You are a lucky man!
If knowledge hangs around your neck like
pearls instead of chains - You are a lucky man!
Takers and fakers and talkers won't tell you.
Teachers and preachers will just buy and sell you.
When no one can tempt you with heaven or hell-
You'll be a lucky man!
You'll be better by far to be just what you are
You can be what you want if you are what you are
And that's a lucky man, oh yeah, a lucky man

Down on the corner of the street
Where I was born we used to meet
And sing the old songs
We called them dole songs
And we'd harmonize so clear
Even though it was the beer
That made the tears run
About the years gone by
And we'd go home and kiss the wife
Hoping a kiss could change your life
That's how romance is
No second chances
Back in my home town
[00:01:20 Instrumental Break]
Things aren't so very different now
Poor folk must get along somehow
You live forever
On the never never

When there's a bluebird singing by your window pane,
And the sun shines bright all day through.
Don't forget boy -
Look over your shoulder.
'Cause there's always someone coming after you.
(La la la la)
Yo-o-o-o-u
(La la la la)
When everything in life seems just as it should be,
At last success seems just around the door.
Don't forget boy -
Look over your shoulder.
'Cause things don't stay the same forever more.
(La la la la)
Hope springs eternal in a young man's breast,
And he dreams of a better life ahead.
Without that dream,
you are nothing, nothing, nothing.
You have to find out for yourself that dream is dead (La la la la)
Dead (La la la la)
Dead (La la la la)
Dead (La la la la)
Dead (La la la la)

We all want justice but you got to have the money to buy it
You'd have to be a fool to close your eyes and deny it
There's a lot of poor people who are walking the streets of my town
Too blind to see that justice is used to do them right down
All through life from beginning to end
You pay your monthly installments
Next to health is wealth
And only wealth will buy you justice
There'll always be a fool who insists on taking his chances
And that is the man who believes in true love romances
He will trust and rely on the goodness in human nature
Now a judge will tell you that's a pathetic creature
All through life from beginning to end
You pay your monthly installments
Next to health is wealth
And only wealth will buy you justice
Money, justice
Money and justice

Just for you
I'll take whatever life can give
Just for you
I'll pour the ink right out my nib
I can do all the things
you've ever wanted to do
Every single moment I think about you
For you
I'll do it all just for you
Just for you
I'll take the rough and take the smooth
Just for you
I'll try to do my best to prove
I can do all the things you've ever wanted to do
and what's more baby everything is times two
For you
I'll do it all just for you
Just for me
Your all I ever dreamed you'd be
Just for you
I'll reach and shake the money tree
I will do all the things you've ever wanted to do
what's more baby every thing is times two
For you
I'll do it all just for you
Just for you
I'll do it all just for you
Just for you

My name is Geordie McIntyre.
And the bairns don't even have a fire.
So the wife said Geordie go to London town.
And if they don't give us half a chance.
Don't even give us a second glance.
Then Geordie with my blessings burn them down.
Come on you Geordie boys

They're marching for their freedom now.
Come on follow the Jarra lads

They singing now yes now is the hour.
My name is little Billy White
And I know what's wrong and I know what's right.
And the wife said Geordie go to London town.
And if they won't give us a couple of bob.
Won't even give you a decent job.
Then Geordie with my blessings burn them down.
Come on you Geordie boys
they fill your heart with joy.
They're marching for their freedom now.
Come on follow the Jarra lads
they make your heart feel glad.
They singing now yes now is the hour.
I can see them, I can feel them, I can hear them.
As if they were here today.
I can see them, I can feel them, I can hear them.
As if they were here today.
Come on, boys, come on, hear the call now.

Sell, sell, sell, sell everything you stand for
Tell, tell, tell, tell all the people that you care for
Running here, running there
Keep it moving, sonny, don't despair
Because the next one will be, the next one will be, the next one will be, the best one of the year
Give, give, give, give everything you paid for
Run, run, run, run for everything you prayed for
Keep that smile on your face
With a smile you're welcome any place
Because the next one will be, the next one will be, the next one will be, the best one of the year
Can I interest you in this article of mine?
Can I interest you to spare some of your time?
Can I interest you in this life of mine?
Won't you listen, listen, listen, listen, listen?
Sell, sell, sell, sell everything you stand for
Tell, tell, tell, tell all the people that you care for
Running here, running there
Keep it moving, sonny, don't despair

Willow weep for me
Willow weep for me
Bend your branches green
Along the stream that runs to sea
Listen to my plea
Listen willow and weep for me
Gone my lover's dream
Lovely summer dream
Gone and left me here
To weep my tears into the stream
Sad as I can be
Hear me willow and weep for me
Whisper to the wind
And say that love has sinned
To leave my heart a breaking
And making a moan
Murmur to the night
To hide her starry light
So none will find me crying
And sighing, all alone
Oh willow weep for me
Oh willow weep for me
Won't you bend your branches down
Along the ground and cover me
When the shadows fall
Bend oh willow and weep for me
I said willow won't you weep for me

I may go out tomorrow, If I can borrow my coat to wear
Oh I'd step out in style, With my sincere smile and my dancing bear
Outrageous - allow me, Courageous - charming
Oh who will think a boy and bear
Could be well accepted everywhere
It's just amazing how fair people can be - doop-n-doo-dee
Seen at the nicest places, Where well fed faces all stop to stare
They give em the grandest influences
Simon Smith and his dancing bear
They love us, don't they, They feed us, won't they,
Oh who will think a boy and bear
Could be well accepted everywhere
It's just amazing how fair people can be - doop-n-doo-dee
Oh who needs money, When you're funny
A great attraction everywhere
With the Simon Smith and his dancing bear

Ramona, come closer,
Shut softly your watery eyes.
The pangs of your sadness
Shall pass as your senses will rise.
The flowers of the city
Though breathlike, get deathlike at times.
And there's no use in tryin'
T' deal with the dyin',
Though I cannot explain that in lines.
Your cracked country lips,
I still wish to kiss,
As to be under the strength of your skin.
Your magnetic movements
Still capture the minutes I'm in.
But it grieves my heart, love,
To see you tryin' to be a part of
A world that just don't exist.
It's all just a dream, babe,
A vacuum, a scheme, babe,
That sucks you into feelin' like this.
I can see that your head
Has been twisted and fed
By worthless foam from the mouth.
I can tell you are torn
Between stayin' and returnin'
On back to the South.
You've been fooled into thinking
That the finishin' end is at hand.
Yet there's no one to beat you,
No one t' defeat you,
'Cept the thoughts of yourself feeling bad.
I've heard you say many times
That you're better 'n no one
And no one is better 'n you.
If you really believe that,
You know you got
Nothing to win and nothing to lose.
From fixtures and forces and friends,
Your sorrow does stem,
That hype you and type you,
Making you feel
That you must be exactly like them.
I'd forever talk to you,
But soon my words,
They would turn into a meaningless ring.
For deep in my heart
I know there is no help I can bring.
Everything passes,
Everything changes,
Just do what you think you should do.
And someday maybe,
Who knows, baby,

But I'm afraid that up to date it doesn't work

We're marching for our freedom now
Come on follow this Jarrow lad, He'll try and make your heart feel glad

Brother Nigel paints the stairs with the signs of the Zodiac
Throws mink in the mirror as he stands in his plastic bag
Sister Emma rises ever round and round the garden
Spends the whole day saying I beg your pardon
Oh my my my my my my my
It makes you wanna cry
This is the house that Jack built, baby,
And it reaches up to the sky
Uncle Joe cracks walnuts in between his toes for fun
And looks through coloured glass at the dark spots on the sun
And Mary she believes that her mother was a queen
Keeps sayin' you just missed him, and Solomon's just been
Oh my my my my my my my
It makes you wanna cry
This is the house that Jack built, baby,
And it reaches up to the sky
Oh my my my my my my my
It makes you wanna cry
This is the house that Jack built, baby,
And it reaches up to the sky
Cousin Festus writes a letter each and every single day
He believes that writing letters keep the Asian flew away
I got a reservation, now it's given it for free
'Cause I killed all the flies in the State of Tennessee
Oh my my my my my my my
It makes you wanna cry
This is the house that Jack built, baby,
And it reaches up to the sky
I'm coming, please save a place for me

Sunshine and rain
Everything seems the same
Who take the blame
That's the name of the game
I don't know why I talk to you
I'm wasting my words and time
I spent the best part of last night
Tryin' to make this right
Sunshine and rain
Everything seems the same
Who take the blame
That's the name of the game
If you have a problem
And you don't know what to do
Yeah, don't you know it, darling patience please
And you're gonna feel the same way too
Sunshine and rain
Everything seems the same
Oh, who take the blame
That's the name of the game
Sunshine and rain
Everything seems the same
Who take the blame
That's the name of the game
I heard a story yesterday
About a captive in distress
But she does fine, doesn't resist
And now she needs a wedding dress
Sunshine and rain
Everything seems the same
Who take the blame

On every tree there sits a bird
Singing a song of love
On every tree there sits a bird
And every one I ever heard
Could break my heart
Without a word
Singing a song of love
A song of love is a sad song
Hi-li Hi-lili Hi-lo
A song of love is a song of woe
Don't ask me how I know
A song of love is a sad song
For I have loved and it's so
Hi-lili Hi-lili Hi-lo Hi-lo
Hi-lili Hi-lili Hi-lo
Hi-lili Hi-lili Hi-lo Hi-lo
Hi-lili Hi-lili....Hi-lo
A tear for him, a tear for me
A tear for the love he swore
A tear for him and one for me
And one for under the tree
And one for wherever my love may be
And then I shall weep no more
A song of love is a sad song
Hi-lili Hi-lili Hi-lo
A song of love is a song of woe
Don't ask me how I know
A song of love is a sad song
For I have loved and it's so
Hi-lili Hi-lili Hi-lo Hi-lo
Hi-lili Hi-lili Hi-lo
Hi-lili Hi-lili Hi-lo Hi-lo

Lord, don't stop the carnival
Lord, don't stop the carnival
You'll never find a better way
Lord, don't stop the carnival
Let us sing the night and day away
Lord, don't stop the carnival
Sunshine I'm only dreaming
Sunshine I'm only dreaming
You'll never find a better way
Lord, don't stop the carnival
That's the signal night and day with
Lord, don't stop the carnival
Sunshine I'm only dreaming
Sunshine I'm only dreaming
But this is England on a winter's afternoon
There is no sun, there's just a pale and tardy moon
And chivering sparrows on the smoking chimney tops
And all the children suffer from cold and flue and raindrops
Lord, don't stop the carnival
Lord, don't stop the carnival
You'll never find a better way
Lord, don't stop the carnival
Let us sing the night and day away
Lord, don't stop the carnival
Sunshine I'm only dreaming
Sunshine I'm only dreaming
T-t-t-t-t-t only dreaming

Everyone is going through changes
No one knows what's going on.
And everybody changes places-
But the world still carries on.
Love must always change to sorrow
And everyone must play the game,
It's here today and gone tomorrow-
But the world goes on the same.
Now love must always change to sorrow...
And everyone must play the game,
It's here today and gone tomorrow-
