Moon River, Wider than a mile, I'm crossing you in style some day. Oh, dream maker, You heart breaker, Wherever you're going I'm going your way. Two drifters off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see. We're after the same rainbow's end Waiting 'round the bend, My huckleberry friend, Moon River and me.

I put a spell on you 'Cause you're mine You better stop the things you do I ain't lyin' No I ain't lyin' You know I can't stand it You're runnin' around You know better I can't stand it if you put me down I put a spell on you Because you're mine You're mine I love ya I love you I love you I love you anyhow And I don't care If you don't want me I'm yours right now You hear me
I put a spell on you Because you're mine
Screamin' Jay Hawkins (1949)
There is a house in New Orleans Call it the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin Of many a poor girl And me, oh Lord, I'm one If I'd listened what my mama said Be at home today Bein' so young And foolish, my Lord Let a gambler lead me astray
My mother was a tailor Sews new blue jeans My sweetheart's is a drunkarad, Lord Drinks down in New Orleans
Go tell my baby sister Never do what I have done Shun that house in New Orleans They call it the Rising Sun
Goin' back to New Orleans Race is almost run Goin' back to spend my life Beneath, beneath, beneath, oh Lord Beneath, oh now Beneath the rising, rising sun Now, now
You come on by. . .
and how are you feeling?
Birds flyin' high You know how I feel Sun in the sky You know how I feel Breeze driftin' on by You know how I feel
It's a new dawn, It's a new day, It's a new life for me Yeah, It's a new dawn It's a new day It's a new life for me ooooooooh And I'm feeling good
Fish in the sea, You know how I feel River runnin' free You know how I feel Blossom on the tree You know how I feel
It's a new dawn, It's a new day, It's a new life for me And I'm feelin good
Dragonfly out in the sun You know what I mean Don't you know Butterflies all havin' fun You know what I mean Sleepin' peace when day is done That's what I mean And this old world Is a new world And a bold world for me
Stars when you shine You know how I feel Scent of the crime You know how I feel Your freedom is mine, And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn, It's a new day, It's a new life for me
Oh I'm feeling good. . .
dinner is served!

and say a big thank you to dinahmow too!
and you can't have a roof party without these guys
The heart is a bloom Shoots up through the stony ground There's no room No space to rent in this town You're out of luck And the reason that you had to care The traffic is stuck And you're not moving anywhere You thought you'd found a friend To take you out of this place Someone you could lend a hand In return for grace
It's a beautiful day Sky falls, you feel like It's a beautiful day Don't let it get away
You're on the road But you've got no destination You're in the mud In the maze of her imagination You love this town Even if that doesn't ring true You've been all over And it's been all over you It's a beautiful day Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day Touch me Take me to that other place Teach me I know I'm not a hopeless case
See the world in green and blue See China right in front of you See the canyons broken by cloud See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out See the Bedouin fires at night See the oil fields at first light And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth After the flood all the colors came out
It was a beautiful day Don't let it get away Beautiful day
Touch me Take me to that other place Reach me I know I'm not a hopeless case
What you don't have you don't need it now What you don't know you can feel it somehow What you don't have you don't need it now Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day
and a final song. . .
Just a perfect day, Drink sangria in the park, And then later, when it gets dark, We go home. Just a perfect day, Feed animals in the zoo Then later, a movie, too, And then home.
Oh it's such a perfect day, I'm glad I spent it with you. Oh such a perfect day, You just keep me hanging on, You just keep me hanging on.
Just a perfect day, Problems all left alone, Partygoers on our own. It's such fun. Just a perfect day, You made me forget myself. I thought I was someone else, Someone good.
Oh it's such a perfect day, I'm glad I spent it with you. Oh such a perfect day, You just keep me hanging on, You just keep me hanging on.
You're going to reap just what you sow, You're going to reap just what you sow, You're going to reap just what you sow, You're going to reap just what you sow...
