Billy Joel - The River Of Dreams
I go walking in my sleep
From the mountains of faith
To the river so deep
I must be lookin' for something
Something sacred I lost
But the river is wide
And it's too hard to cross
even though I know the river is wide
I walk down every evening and stand on the shore
I try to cross to the opposite side
So I can finally find what I've been looking for
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the valley of fear
To a river so deep
I've been searching for something
Taken out of my soul
Something I'd never lose
Something somebody stole
I don't know why I go walking at night
But now I'm tired and I don't want to walk anymore
I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life
Until I find what it is I've been looking for
(Two beat Pause)
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the jungle of doubt
To the river so deep
I know I'm searching for something
Something so undefined
That it can only be seen
By the eyes of the blind
In the middle of the night (break)
I’m not sure about a life after this
God knows I've never been a spiritual man
Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river
That is runnin' through the promised land (Long Five beat Pause)
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the desert of truth
To the river so deep
We all end in the ocean
We all start in the streams
We're all carried along
By the river of dreams
In the middle of the night

Right Here Waiting- Richard Marx
Oceans apart day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain
If I see you next to never
How can we say forever
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
I took for granted, all the times
That I though would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now
Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me goin' CrAzY
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
I wonder how we can survive
This romance
But in the end if I'm with you
I'll take the chance
Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me goin' cRaZy
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

Bobby Bloom - Montego Bay
Vernon'll meet me When the BO-AC 1 lands.
Keys to the M.G. 2 will be in his hands.
Adjust to the driving, and I'm on my way.
It's all on the right side of Montego Bay.
Sing out.
(Woh, oh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh-woh.)
(Woh, oh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh-woh.)
Come sing me loud. (Loud.)
Come sing me ((Montego Bay.))
((Woh, oh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh-woh.))
And Gillian'll meet me like a brother would.
I think I remember, but it's twice as good.
Like how cool the rum is from a silver tray,
I thirst to be thirsty in Montego Bay.
Sing out.
((Woh, oh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh-woh.))
((Woh, oh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh-woh.))
Come sing me loud. (Loud.)
Come sing me ((Montego Bay.))
((Woh, oh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh-woh.))
[Instrumental break.]
I lay on the lilo 3 till I'm lobster-red,
I still feel the motion here at home in bed
I tell you it's hard for me to stay away,
You ain't been, till you been high, Montego Bay.
Sing out.
((Woh, oh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh-woh.))
((Woh, oh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh-woh.))
Come sing me loud. (Loud.)
Come sing me ((Montego Bay.))
((Woh, oh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh-woh.))
Dance in the streets.
[Short instrumental break.]
Yes, sing me loud. (Loud.)
Come sing me ((Montego Bay.))
((Woh, oh-oh, woh-oh, woh-oh,)) woh-woh...
[Bloom sings the last 4 lines 'a capella' 4 :]
Oh, what a beautiful morning.
Oh, what a beautiful day.
And I got a beautiful feeling.
Everything's going my way.

Merle Haggard Kern River
I'll never swim Kern River again.
It was there that I met her.
It was there that I lost my best friend.
And now I live in the mountains.
I drifted up here with the wind.
And I may drown in still water,
But I'll never swim Kern River again.
I grew up in an oil town,
But my gusher never came in.
And the river was a boundary,
Where my darlin' and I used to swim.
One night in the moonlight,
The swiftness swept her life away.
And now I live on Lake Shasta,
And Lake Shasta is where I will stay.
There's the South San Joaquin,
Where the seeds of the dust bowl are found.
And there's a place called Mount Whitney,
From where the mighty Kern River comes down.
Now, it's not deep nor wide,
But it's a mean piece of water, my friend.
And I may cross on the highway,
But I'll never swim Kern River again.
I'll never swim Kern River again.
It was there that I met her.
It was there that I lost my best friend.
And now I live in the mountains.
I drifted up here with the wind.
And I may drown in still water,
But I'll never swim Kern River again.
Instrumental break.
I'll never swim Kern River again.
An' it was there that I met her.
It was there that I lost my best friend.
Now I live in the mountains.
I drifted up here with the wind.
And I may drown in still water,
But I'll never swim Kern River again.

Sea Shanties: Santy Anno
Santy Anna gained the day
Away Santy Anno
Santy Anna gained the day
All on the plains of Mexico
Mexico, oh Mexico
Away Santy Anno
Mexico is a place I know
All on the plains of Mexico
Them yaller girls I do adore
Away Santy Anno
With their shinin' eyes and their cold black hair
All on the plains of Mexico
Why do them yaller girls love me so
Away Santy Anno
Because I won't tell them all I know
All on the plains of Mexico
Them Liverpool girls don't use no combs
Away Santy Anno
They combs their hair with a kipper backbone
All on the plains of Mexico
When I was a young man in me prime
Away Santy Anno
I knocked them scouse girls two at a time
All on the plains of Mexico
Times is hard and the wages low
Away Santy Anno
It's time for us to roll and go
All on the plains of Mexico
