Words for the CD's

Here are words for two of the songs. I'll post the other two tomorrow. Also, please, please, PLEASE, do the breathing exercises every day!!!

Thanks!



'Cross the Wide Missouri

Away, I'm bound away 'cross the wide Missouri.

The water is wide, I cannot get o'er.
Give me a boat to take me home.
My true love waits on yonder shore,
So far away, so long alone.

But love is gentle, and love is kind;
and love can soothe a lonely heart.
The more we seek, the more we find,
Love keeps us strong though we're apart.

For it's many long years since last I saw you,
Away, you rollin' river.
And still I know I have not lost you.
Away, I'm bound away 'cross the wide Missouri.

The water is wide, but I must cross o'er.
Bo more can I be all alone.
My future waits on yonder shore.
Send me a boat to take me home
'cross the wide Missouri.


Cold and Fugue Season

We just want to sing this classy fugue for you.
But I keep on sneezing and sneezing,
and my neighbor's coughing and wheezing,
And I don't think Bach wrote sneezes in this fugue.

I don't think we'll ever make it through this song
Without Kleenex, coughdrops, and NyQuil
Hot tea and a heating pad and Vicks and a doctor bill
and anyway I think it's much too long!

Please pass the kleenex.
Hand out the coughdrops.
Turn on the vaporizer.
Call for the flu shots.

Dish out the chicken soup.
Hand out the crackers.
Please call my mother,
I'm feeling sick!

Mom, please take me home.
(Put me to bed)
I have this cold
(My aching head)
I should have stayed
(home like you said)
but here I am instead,

Oh, I don't want to sing this classy fugue for you,
'Cause we keep on sneezing and sneezing,
and my neighbor's coughing and wheezing,
And I don't think Bach wrote sneezes in this fugue.
