They talk about great lyrics in songs today, usually two or three phrases or sentences repeated endlessly. Back in the old days songs actually had lyrics, and funny lyrics sometimes. Ill let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours I said that. Talkin World War lll Blues Some time ago a crazy dream came to me I dreamt I was walkin into World War Three I went to the doctor the very next day To see what kinda words he could say He said it was a bad dream I wouldnt worry bout it none, though Theyre dreams and theyre only in your head. I said, Hold it, Doc, a World War passed through my brain. He said, Nurse, get your pad, this boys insane. He grabbed my arm, I said Ouch. As I landed on the psychiatric couch He said, Tell me about it. Well, the whole thing started at 3 oclock fast It was all over by quarter past I was down in the sewer with some little lover When I peeked out from a manhole cover Wondering who turned the lights on. Well, I got up and walked around And up and down the lonesome town I stood a-wondering which way to go I lit a cigarette on a parking meter And walked on down the road It was a normal day. Well, I rung the fallout shelter bell And leaned my head and I gave a yell Give me a string bean Im a hungry man A shortgun fired and away I ran I dont blame them too much though They didnt know me. Down at the corner by a hot-dog stand I seen a man I said Howdy friend, I guess theres just us two He screamed a bit and away he flew Thought it was a Communist. Well, I spied me a girl and before she could leave Lets go and play Adam and Eve I took her by the hand and my heart it was thumpin When she said, Hey man, you crazy or sumpin You see what happened last time they started. Well, I seen a Cadillac window uptown And there was nobody aroun I got into the drivers seat And I drove down to 42nd Street In my Cadillac Good car to drive after a war. Well, I remember seein some ad So I turned on my Conelrad But I didnt pay my Con Ed bill So the radio didnt work so well Turned on my record player It was Rock-A-Day Johnny singin Tell Your Ma, Tell Your Pa Our Loves Are Gonna Grow Ooh-wah, Ooh-wah . I was feelin kinda lonesome and blue I needed somebody to talk to So I called up the operator of time Just to hear a voice of some kind When you hear the beep It will be three oclock She said that for over an hour And I hung up. Well the doctor interrupted me just about then Sayin Hey Ive been havin the same old dreams But mine was a little different you see I dreamt that the only person left after the war was me I didnt see you around. Well, now time passed and now it seems Everybodys having them dreams Everybody sees themselves walkin around with no one else Half of the people can be part right all of the time Some of the people can be all right part of the time But all of the people cant be all right all of the time I think Abraham Lincoln said that Ill let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours I said that. youtu.be/_rRxwMyOZX8
