The Cowsills Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Hair

Lyricist:James Rado, Gerome Ragni

She asks me why I'm just a hairy guy
I'm hairy noon and night hair that's a fright
I'm hairy high and low, don't ask me why, don't know
It's not for lack of bread like the Grateful Dead, darling

Gimme head with hair
Long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming
Streaming, flaxen, waxen

Give me down to there hair
Shoulder length or longer
Here baby, there mama
Everywhere daddy daddy

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair

Let it fly in the breeze and get caught in the trees
Give a home to the fleas in my hair
A home for fleas, a hive for bees, a nest for birds
There ain't no words for the beauty, the splendor, the wonder of
my

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair

I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
Snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
Oily, greasy, fleecy, shining
Gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen

Knotted, polka-dotted
Twisted, beaded, braided
Powdered, flowered, and confettied
Bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied

Oh say, can you see my eyes?
If you can then my hair's too short?

Down to here
Down to there
Down to where
It stops by itself

They'll be ga ga at the go go
When they see me in my toga
My toga made of blond
Brilliantined, Biblical hair

My hair like Jesus wore it
Hallelujah, I adore it
Hallelujah, Mary loved her son
Why don't my mother love me?

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it, long as God can grow it
My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it, long as God can grow it


2.The Rain, the Park and Other Things

Lyricist:Steve Duboff, Arthur Kornfeld

I saw her sitting in the rain
Raindrops falling on her
She didn't seem to care
She sat there and smiled at me

Then I knew
She could make me happy
Flowers in her hair
Flowers everywhere

I love the flower girl
Oh, I don't know just why, she simply caught my eye
I love the flower girl
She seemed so sweet and kind, she crept into my mind

To my mind

I knew I had to say hello
She smiled up at me
And she took my hand
And we walked through the park alone

And I knew
She had made me happy
Flowers in her hair
Flowers everywhere

I love the flower girl
Oh, I don't know just why, she simply caught my eye
I love the flower girl
She seemed so sweet and kind, she crept into my mind

To my mind

Suddenly, the sun broke through
I turned around, she was gone
All I had left
Was one little flower in my hand

But I knew
She had made me happy
Flowers in her hair
Flowers everywhere

I love the flower girl
Was she reality or just a dream to me?
I love the flower girl
Her love showed me the way to find a sunny day

Sunny day

I love the flower girl
Was she reality or just a dream to me?
I love the flower girl


3.The Path Of Love

Lyricist:Tony Romeo

Well come on
Follow down the Path of Love
Come on little children
Gather 'round me and hear what I say
To lead the life you should
You got to strive to be good ev'ry day
You can brighten the dark
With a light in your heart
That'll shine like the sun above

So come on
Follow down the Path of Love
Come on, ev'rybody together
Come on, let me show you the way
Come on, we can do much better
Follow down the Path of Love
Come on, ev'rybody together
Come on, let me show you the way
Come on, we can do much better
Follow down the Path of Love

Believe there is someone who loves you
No matter what
You can count your blessings
And be happy with whatever you've got
Won't you brighten the dark
With a light in your heart
You better shine like the sun above

So come on
Follow down the Path of Love
Come on, ev'rybody together
Come on, let me show you the way
Come on, we can do much better
Follow down the Path of Love
Come on, ev'rybody together
Come on, let me show you the way
Come on, we can do much better
Follow down the Path of Love


4.We Can Fly

Lyricist:Bill Cowsill, Bob Cowsill, Steve Duboff, Arthur Kornfeld

See how the fluffy clouds move by us
See how the clouds move by
See how the morning mist can hide us away
And how the day is so much fun, wha oh

Isn't it groovy in a daydream? Dreamin' today
Doesn't the day seem like it could never end
And so my friend we're one

Baby it's funny, how I can feel so sunny
When you're beside me, we can fly
Oh we can fly

Hey Mister Wind keep on sailin'
Keep on sailin' along
High in the sky there's no curtailing our fun
Yes we'll have fun, so everyone come on

Hey, you on the ground
Take a look up and see what we've found
Nothing to tie us, bluebirds come up to guide us

When you're beside me we can fly
Oh, we can fly, we can fly
Hey, everyone on the ground let's fly


5.Love American Style

Lyricist:Charles Fox, Arnold Margolin

Love, love, love, love

Love, American style
Truer than the red, white and blue
Love, American style
That's me and you

And on a star spangled night my love
You can rest your head on my shoulder
I will defend your right to try

Love, American style
Freer than the land of the free
Love, American style
That's you and me

We pledge our love 'neath the same old moon
But it shines red and white and blue now
Upon this land of hopes and dreams my love
Where all I hope for tis of thee

Love, American style
Truer than the red, white and blue
Love, American style
That's me and you

And in this land of hopes and dreams, my love
All that I hope for tis of thee

Love, American style
Freer than the land of the free
Love, American style
Truer than the red, white and blue

Love, American style
Freer than the land of the free
Love, American style
Truer than the red, white and blue
