I know it as We Bid you Goodnight. It was one of my favorite ways the Grateful Dead would close a show.
Your up Darth

Have a go at this... For the modest!.....  I used to have a girlfriend but she just couldn't compete with all of these love starved women who keep clamoring at my feet. Well I prob'ly could find me another but I guess they're all in awe of me. Who cares, I never get lonesome cause I treasure my own company. |

Ahha! My theme song!! "Oh Lord it's Hard to be Humble" Mac Davis.
When the golden sun sinks in the hills
And the toil of a long day is o'er
Though the road may be long, in the lilt of a song
I forget I was weary before
Far ahead, where the blue shadows fall
I shall come to contentment and rest
And the toils of the day will be all charmed away

While shepherds washed their socks by night
All seated round the tub
An Angel of the Lord came down
And gave them all a scrub.
Sorry I'm pissed. (uk for drunk)

Darth, "Grandma's Feather Bed".
Ken, you old reprobate, yours is, of course, a parody of "When Shepherds Watched Their Flocks by Night". How's your head? What were you gargling? Your good plonk or some flat warm dishwater (laughingly known as English beer)?
Have a go at:
"I can't get the old job can't get the new
Can't carry on as I used to do
I look around me and daily I see
Thousands and thousands of fellows
A lot worse off than me"

I wasn't there that morning
When my Father passed away
I didn't get to tell him
All the things I had to say
But I think I caught his spirit
Later that same year
I'm sure I heard his echo
In my baby's new born tears
I just wish I could have told him, in....................

Let's get this thread moving!
Mine was "Stony Broke in No Mans Land". Nobody got it. So according to the rules, you are all obliged to send me US$20 in a plain brown envelope.
Ken, yours was "The Living Years".
As Ken hasn't surfaced for a week, how about someone else come up with one?

galvo, is that your $$ or Mine? I wish I had a contribution, this has been a great thread and I'd like to keep it going. Thanks. I'll try to think of something and come back when I am not at dialysis. |

I've got one...
Then in nineteen fifteen my country said Son
It's time to stop rambling 'cause there's work to be done
So they gave me a tin hat and they gave me a gun
And they sent me away to the war

Thanks, Darthvadar, here it goes...
... Pictures hanging in a hallway
And a fragment of this song
Half remembered names and faces
But to whom to they belong...

Windmills of the Mind".
Here's an easy one for New Year:
Off went the van with the home packed in it,
I walked behind with me old cock linnet.
But I dillied and dallied, dallied and dillied,
Lost the van and don't know where to roam.
You can't trust the specials like the old-time coppers
When you can't find your way home.

Ha Ha!!!... Thanks Galvo....
Thinking of this one made me smile.... A gentleman I visited in a nursing home used to sing this... I got a tear or two as well, but mostly smiled when I though of Bill... May God rest his soul...
It's 'My Old Man said follow the van'
How's this???.....
My name it is Sean Demspey, as Dublin as can be
Born hard & late in Pimlico, in a house that ceased to be
By trade I was a cooper, lost out to redundancy
Like my house that fell to progress, my trade's a memory

Ah Ha!!!... A party piece of mine....
'The Streets of London'...
Try this...
Near Banbridge town in the County Down
one morning last July,
from a boreen green came a sweet Colleen
And she smiled as she passed me by.

I'll take a go at this!!
Branbridge Town
At the age of sixteen years he left his native home
And through Australia's sunny clime he was inclined to roarn
He robbed the lordly squatters, their flocks he would destroy
A terror to Australia was the Wild Colonial Boy

That's right Darth!! Now do you know this good old irish song ( irish music is popular in Newfoundland!!)
Her eyes they shone like the diamonds
You'd think she was queen of the land
And her hair hung over her shoulder
Tied up with a black velvet band.
In a neat little town they call Belfast
Apprenticed to trade I was bound
And many an hour's sweet happiness
I spent in that neat little town.
Till bad misfortune came o'er me
That caused me to stray from the land
Far away from my friends and relations
To follow the black velvet band.
