When I was just a child. My life was, oh, so simple. And the ways of the great world. Seemed strange and funny. Then when I was a young man. I learned of that machine.
Life's good, friends are hard to find and now one of mine is dead.. And things I should have said to her, I shall say to you instead.. Mona, Mona, so much of you to love, too much of you to take care of, Mona, Mona..
Now my grandfather was a sailor. He blew in off the water. My father was a farmer. And i, his only daughter. Took up with a no good millworking man. From massachusetts.

Me and my guitar. Always in the same mood. I am mostly flesh and bones. And he is mostly wood. Never does grow impatient. For the changes I don't know, no.

Don't come to me with your sorrows anymore. I don't need to know. How bad you're feeling today. I declare I've had my share. And I've heard it all before.
Need a reason to be here. Hoping to find it tonight. Walking alone on broadway. Watching the people. Watching the town go down. Broadway's a river to me.
Long ago a young man sits and plays his waiting game. But things are not the same it seems as in such tender dreams. Slowly passing sailing ships and Sunday afternoon.
I do believe, I must believe,. I think I can begin again.. Become again the man I was back when.. So I'm walking on your streets again,. Feeling now as I did then,.
Lonely by day, empty and cold. Only to say lo and behold. Deep in the night, down in my dreams. Glorious sight this soul has seen. . There's a well on the hill.
