Busa Rhyme
(Bob Lucas/Belly Boy Music, BMI)
When I was a child
I used to love to watch the rain
I'd stand under the downspout
Let the water cool my brain
I never thought to worry
If the river rose too high
That all the seeds we planted
Would get washed out with the tide
But now I am a man
And I need a place to hide
Chorus:
But there's nowhere to run
And there's no place to hide
Where the water runs free
And the mud starts to slide
When I was a young man
I could work through wind and rain
I never thought to worry
Had no reason to complai
When I was a child
I used to love to watch the rain
I'd stand under the downspout
Let the water cool my brain
I never thought to worry
If the river rose too high
That all the seeds we planted
Would get washed out with the tide
But now I am a man
And I need a place to hide
Chorus:
But there's nowhere to run
And there's no place to hide
Where the water runs free
And the mud starts to slide
When I was a young man
I could work through wind and rain
I never thought to worry
Had no reason to complai
Tanging Mahal
Long ago, and, oh so far away
I fell in love with you
before the second show.
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear,
but you're not really here.
It's just the radio.
Don't you remember you told me
you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way
again baby.
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby.
I love you, I really do.
Loneliness is such a sad affair,
and I can hardly wait
to be with you again.
What to say, to make you come again?
Come back to me again,
and play your sad guitar.
