"Midnight Caller" lyrics
"Midnight Caller"
Beneath the midnight caller
She thinks of paper green
You never hear them calling her name
They just know where they've been
You never hear them holler
The tears no longer come
She reads her daily book of the panic
That shows up everyone
Grey is that snow in her hair
Can't be, but she don't seem to care
She locks the door and there's no one there
She sees a daytime stroller
Walk from the night before
And though she paints the smile on her face
He won't be back no more
She got no saint to follow
She's got no place to go
Too proud to ask an old friend for help
Too proud to let him know
Grey is that snow in her hair
Can't be, but she don't seem to care
She locks the door and there's no one there
Nobody
Nobody

Fred Neil - "Yonder Comes The Blues" Raindrops falling on a roof of tin
Oh, bad news
Roof keeps leaking the rain pours in
I guess I'm paying my dues
Look over yonder now
Tell me what do you see
Yonder comes the blues
Running after me...
Ralph McTell - "Barges" Me and my brother returned to the water
I saw a pike that was two feet long
Two small magicians, each with a jam jar
Cast spells on the water with hazel twig wands
Country boys catch tadpoles, dive...
Nick Drake - "Saturday Sun" Saturday sun
Came early one morning
In a sky so clear and blue
Saturday sun
Came without warning
So no one knew what to do
Saturday sun
Brought people and faces
That didn't seem much
In their day...
