1.Cracklin' Rosie
Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond
Cracklin' Rosie, get on board
We're gonna ride till there ain't no more to go
Taking it slow
Lord, don't you know
Have me a time with a poor man's lady
Hitchin' on a twilight train
Ain't nothing there that I care to take along
Maybe a song
To sing when I want
Don't need to say please to no man for a happy tune
Oh, I love my Rosie child
She got the way to make me happy
You and me, we go in style
Cracklin' Rosie you're a store-bought woman
You make me sing like a guitar hummin'
So hang on to me, girl
Our song keeps runnin' on
Play it now
Play it now
Play it now, my baby
Cracklin' Rosie, make me a smile
God if it lasts for an hour, that's all right
We got all night
To set the world right
Find us a dream that don't asks no questions, yeah
Oh, I love my Rosie child
You got the way to make me happy
You and me, we go in style
Cracklin' Rosie, you're a store-bought woman
You make me sing like a guitar hummin'
So hang on to me, girl
Our song keeps runnin' on
Play it now
Play it now
Play it now, my baby
Cracklin' Rosie, make me a smile
God if it lasts for an hour, that's all right
We got all night
To set the world right
Find us a dream that don't asks no questions, yeah
2.Free Life
Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond
Neil Diamond
Free life.
Scratch on my head.
Pick me a tune.
Sing it like a black man,
Oh, oh, oh, mm, mm, mm.
Free life.
You know my name.
I'll leave on a light
And burn it in the window,
Oh, oh, oh, mm, mm, mm.
Talking bout round, brown ladies
And maybe some wine.
All be fine.
If she ain't no belle, hell, it's OK;
I won't pay no mind.
We'll just have us a time.
Free life.
I'll wait right here,
But I ain't no kid
Believin' in the Bible,
Oh, oh, oh, mm, mm, mm.
Ah, free life.
3.Coldwater Morning
Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond
Neil Diamond
One, knowing I'm one, hearing of two,
And like a child believing dreams,
Always a dream to take you home.
Day, after the day, there comes the night,
There comes the knowing when you laugh.
If you should laugh, the night alone will hear,
And the night don't care.
Coldwater morning,
Take off your nighttime shoes.
Coldwater morning,
I been waiting so long for you.
One, knowing I'm one, hearing of two,
Hearing of things that I once had,
That you once had.
And when the night would come
We'd sleep like one.
Coldwater morning,
Take off your nighttime shoes.
Coldwater morning,
I been waiting so long for you.
I been waiting so long for you.
4.Done Too Soon
Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond
Jesus Christ, Fanny Brice,
Wolfie Mozart and Humphrey Bogart and
Genghis Khan and
On to H. G. Wells.
Ho Chi Minh, Gunga Din
Henry Luce and John Wilkes Booth
And Alexanders
King and Graham Bell.
Ramar Krishna, Mama Whistler,
Patrice Lumumba and Russ Colombo,
Karl and Chico Marx,
Albert Camus.
E. A. Poe, Henri Rousseau,
Sholom Aleichem and Caryl Chessman,
Alan Freed and
Buster Keaton too
And each one there
Has one thing shared:
They have sweated beneath the same sun,
Looked up in wonder at the same moon,
And wept when it was all done
For bein' done too soon,
For bein' done too soon.
For bein' done.
5.He Ain't Heavy...He's My Brother
Lyrics:Bob Russel/Bobby Scott
Music:Bob Russel/Bobby Scott
The road is long with many awaiting turns
That lead us to who knows where,
who knows where
But I'm strong,
strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
So long we go
His welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bare, we'll get there
For I know
he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
If Im laden at all,
I I am laden with sadness that
everyone's heart isn't filled with the gladness
I am alone for one and other
It's so long long road
From there is no return
while we're on the way to live why not share
And the load doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy , he's my brother
He's my brother
He ain't heavy
He's my brother
He's my brother
He ain't heavy
He's my brother
6.Childsong
Lyrics:Neil Diamond
Music:Neil Diamond
Weeping sky
We bring the sun
To make you glad
And fill you with the day.
Quiet tree
We have the wind
To make you dance
And fill you with our play.
And you shall be glad
And you shall dance
And you shall come
To hear our song
And learn its tune
Before it fades away.
