Neil Diamond Moods Lyrics
1.Song Sung Blue

Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond

Song sung blue
Everybody knows one
Song sung blue
Every garden grows one

Me and you are subject to the blues now and then
But when you take the blues and make a song
You sing them out again
Sing them out again

Song sung blue
Weeping like a willow
Song sung blue
Sleeping on my pillow

Funny thing, but you can sing it with a cry in your voice
And before you know, start to feeling good
You simply got no choice

Song sung blue
Everybody knows one
Song sung blue
Every garden grows one


2.Porcupine Pie

Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond

Porcupine pie, porcupine pie, porcupine pie,
Vanilla soup, a double scoop please.
No, maybe I want, maybe I won't, maybe I will.
The titti fruit, with fruity blue cheese.

Ah, but porcupine pie, porcupine pie, porcupine pie,
Don't let it get on your jeans, I know it sounds a little
strange,
but you got to eat it with gloves--or your hands will turn
green.

Ah, but porcupine pie, porcupine pie, porcupine pie,
It weaves its way through my dreams,
And I do believe I'm gonna have one and leave enough room for
dessert,
chicken ripple ice cream.


3.High Rolling Man

Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond

Roll 'em in the morning, roll without no warning,
Hot damn, hot damn, hot damn, you know that he could and he
would,
He's a high rollin' man in a high rollin' neighborhood.

Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em.
Don't do much good, but good Lord, he could roll 'em.
Lord, he was a dreamer, hardly worth redeeming,
Hot damn, hot damn, hot damn, you know that he was, Lord, he
was,
But when it comes to his thumbs, ain't a man who can do what he
does.

Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll'em,
Don't do much good, but good Lord, he could roll 'em.
Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em,
Don't do much good, but good Lord, he could roll 'em.
Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em,
Don't do much good, but good Lord, he could roll 'em.


4.Canta Libre

Lyricist:Neil Diamond
Writer(s):Neil Diamond

Canta libre, Canta vida, de mi madre, y mi padre,
Canta mi corazon, Para los ninos, y sus ninos, canta libre.

I got music runnin' in my head,
Makes me feel like a young bird flyin',
'Cross my mind and layin' in my bed,
Keeps me away from the thought of dyin'.
Canta libre, Canta vida, de mi madre y mi padre.

I got music runnin' in my brain,
Ev'ry song with it's own kind of meaning,
Cleanse the soul and wash away the pain,
Baptized by the song that you're singing.
Canta libre, Canta la vida,
siempre conmigo, canta libre.

Canta libre, canta la vida.

Canta mi corazon, Paralos ninos, y sus ninos, canta libre,
de mi madre, y mi padre, canta libre, canta libre.


5.Captain Sunshine

Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond

Captain Sunshine, make me drink wine,
Make me feel fine when I'm feelin' wrongly down.
He don't take much, he don't make much,
But ah, to be such a man as he,
and walk so pure between the earth and the sea.

Captain Sunshine, he do me fine,
Make the words rhyme when he knows the tune is sad.
He don't take much, he don't make much,
But ah, to be such a man as he,
and walk so pure between the earth and the sea.

He don't take much, he don't make much,
But ah, to be such a man as he,
and walk so pure between the earth and the sea.


6.Play Me

Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond

She was moring
And I was night time
I one day woke up
To find her lying
Beside my bed
I softly said
'Come take me'

For I've been lonely
In need of someone
As though I'd done
Someone wrong somewhere
I don't know where
Come lately

You are the sun
I am the moon
You are the words
I am the tune
Play me

Song she sang to me
Song she brang to me
Words that rang in me
Rhyme that sprang from me
Warmed the night
And what was right
Became me

You are the sun
I am the moon
You are the words
I am the tune
Play me

And so it was
That I came to travel
Upon a road
That was thorned and narrow
Another place
Another grace
Would save me

You are the sun
I am the moon
You are the word
I am the tune
Play me


7.Gitchy Goomy

Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond

Gitchy Goomy, gitchy gaddy, sit you laddie down on your daddy's
knee,
And ain't it a nice place to be?
Goggin noggin, papa's rockin' like a mockin' bird in a windy
tree,
and that ain't no place for me.
Been there one time, been there two times,
been there three times more than I care to be,
But we're gonna make it through, Gitchy Goomy.

Life is good, life is fine, life is warm,
life is kind, can you see it?
Love is great, love is right,
keeps you warm late at night when you need it.
Baby boy, daddy's joy, life's a toy,
but you don't wanna break it.
Like a sweet symphony, all you need is the key, you can play it.

Gitchy Goomy, gitchy gaddy, sit you laddie down while I have my
say,
Now don't be runnin' away.
Goggin Noggin, papa's talkin'
don't go walkin' off like you mean to play,
Well, you can have it your way.
Been there one time, been there two times,
been there three times more than I care to say,
But you're gonna be O.K. Gitchy Goomy.

Life is good, life is fine, life is warm,
life is kind, can you see it?
Love is great, love is right,
keeps you warm late at night when you need it.
Baby boy, daddy's joy, life's a toy,
but you don't wanna break it.
Like a sweet symphony, all you need is the key, you can play it.

Been there one time, been there two times,
been there three times more than I care to be,
Seen it one time, seen it two times,
Seen it three times, Lord 'n' it's plain to see.
Ah, you gonna make it through Gitchy Goomy.
You 'n' me gonna make it through Gitchy Goomy.
Ah, you gonna make it through Gitchy Goomy.


8.Walk On Water

Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond

Walk on water, ain't it like her,
She leads the children,
Ain't it right, ain't it right, ain't it right!
And ain't it wond'rous, the way she does it,
Gives love and loves it,
Ain't it right, ain't it right, ain't it right!

Light de light, we got mornin', mornin' makes another day,
Glory sight, got de dawnin',
Lordy, light the night away!

Light de light, we got mornin', mornin' makes another day,
Glory sight, got de dawnin'
Lordy, light the night away!

Light de light, we got mornin', mornin' makes another day,
Glory sight, got de dawnin'
Lordy, light the night away!

She walks on water, ain't it like her,
She leads the children,
Ain't it right, ain't it right, ain't it right!


9.Theme


10.Prelude In E Major


11.Morningside

Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond

Morningside
The old man died
And no one cried
They simply turned away
And when he died
He left a table made of nails and pride
And with his hands, he carved these words inside
'For my childen'
Morning light
Morning bright
I spent the night
With dreams that make you weep
Morning time
Wash away the sadness from these eyes of mine
For I recall the words an old man signed
'For my children'

And the legs were shaped with his hands
And the top made of oaken wood
And the children that sat around his table
Touched it with their laughter
Ah, and that was good

Morningside
An old man died
And no one cried
He surely died alone
And truth is sad
For not a children would claim
the gift he had
The words he carved
became his epitaph
'For my children'
