THE LOVIN' SPOONFUL
01-DAYDREAM – C1 Do M
Lovin’ spoonful
What a day for a daydream
What a day for a daydreamin' boy
And I'm lost in a daydream
Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy
And even if time ain't really on my side
It's one of those days for taking a walk outside
I'm blowing the day to take a walk in the sun
And fall on my face on somebody's new-mown lawn
I've been having a sweet dream
I been dreaming since I woke up today
It's starring me and my sweet thing
'Cause she's the one makes me feel this way
And even if time is passing me by a lot
I couldn't care less about the dues you say I got
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for dropping my load
A pie in the face for being a sleep'n bull dog
{Whistle}
And you can be sure that if you're feeling right
A daydream will last long into the night
Tomorrow at breakfast you may pick up your ears
Or you may be daydreaming for a thousand years
What a day for a daydream
Custom made for a daydreaming boy
And I'm lost in a daydream
Dreaming 'bout my bundle of joy
{Whistle}
02-RAIN ON THE ROOF – Re M
Lovin’ spoonful
You and me and rain on the roof
Caught up in a summer shower
Drying while it soaks the flowers
Maybe we'll be caught for hours
Waiting out the sun
You and me, we're gathered away
Dreamin' conversation, sitting in the hay
Honey, how long was I laughing in the rain with you?
'Cause I didn't feel a drop'
Til the thunder brought us to
You and me underneath a roof of tin
Pretty comfy feeling, how the rain ain't leaking in
We can sit and dry just as long as it can pour
'Cause the way it makes you look
Makes me hope it rains some more
You and me and rain on the roof
Caught up in a summer shower
Drying while it soaks the flowers
Maybe we'll be caught for hours
Waiting out the sun
03-YOUNGER GIRL – Do M
Lovin’ spoonful
She's one of those girls
who seems to come in the Spring
One look in her eyes
and you forget everything
You had ready to say
And I saw her today, yeah...
Chorus:
A younger girl
keeps a-rollin' 'cross my mind
No matter how much I try,
I can't seem to leave her memory behind
I remember her eyes,
soft dark and brown
Said she'd never been in trouble,
or even in town
A younger girl keeps
a-rollin' 'cross my mind
No matter how much I try,
I can't seem to leave her memory behind
A younger girl
04-SUMMER IN THE CITY – C1 Si m
Lovin’ spoonful
Hot town summer in the city
back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
been down, isn't it a pity
doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
all around people looking half dead
walking on the sidewalk
hotter than a match head
but at night it's a different world
go out and find a girl
come on, come on and dance all night
despite the heat it will be alright
and babe, don't you know it's a pity
the days can't be like the night
in the summer in the city
in the summer in the city
cool town, evening in the city
dressed so fine and looking so pretty
cool cat lookin for a kitty
gonna look in every corner of the city
ill i'm wheezing like a bus stop
running up the stairs
gonna meet ya on the roof top
but at night it's a different world
go out and find a girl
come on, come on lets dance all night
despite the heat it will be alright
and babe, don't you know it's a pity
the days can't be like the night
in the summer in the city
in the summer in the city
but at night it's a different world
go out and find a girl
come on, come on lets dance all night
despite the heat it will be alright
and babe don't you know it's a pity
the days can't be like the night
in the summer in the city
in the summer in the city
hot town summer in the city
05-COCONUT GROOVE – Mi M
Lovin’ Spoonful
It's really true how nothin' matters.
No mad, mad world and no mad hatters.
And no-one's pitchin' 'cause there ain't no batters
In Coconut Grove.
Don't bar the door, there's no-one comin'.
The ocean's roar will dull the drummin'
Of any city thoughts or city ways.
[Bridge]
The ocean breezes cool my mind
The salty days are hers and mine
Just to do what we want to.
Tonight we'll find a dune that's ours
And softly she will speak the stars
Until sun up.
