I started a joke, which started the whole world crying
But I didn't see, that the joke was on me, oh no

I started to cry, which started the whole world laughing
Oh If I'd only seen, that the joke was on me

I looked at the skies, running my hands, over my eyes
And I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I said

'Till I finaly died which started the whole world living
Oh If I'd only seen that the joke was on me

I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I said

'Till, I finaly died which started the whole world living
Oh If I'd only seen that the joke was on me                                              Oh no that the joke was on me

You are the sunshine of my life
That's why I'll always be around
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay in my heart

I feel like this is the beginning
'though I've loved you for a million years
And if I thought our love was ending
I'd find myself drowning in my own tears

Whoa whoa

You are the sunshine of my life
That's why I'll always stay around
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay in my heart

You must have known that I was lonely
Because you came to my rescue
And I know that this must be heaven                                                         How could so much love be inside of you

So you say you tried, But you just can't find the pleasure
People around you givin' you pressure
Try to resist all the hurt that's all Around you
If you taste it, it will haunt you

So come, take me by the hand, We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can, I know we can
I know we can, I know we can Getaway

Watch for the signs That lead in the right direction
Not to heed them is a bad reflection
They'll show you the way Into what you have been seeking
To ignore them you're only cheating

So come, take me by the hand, We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can getaway, Getaway

Lay awake every night Till the sun comes up in the morning
Nothing exciting, it all seems boring
Make up your mind which way to go about it
To your road, you just don't doubt it.

So come, take me by the hand, We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can, I know we can, I know we can, I know we can
Getaway

My, my, my, my
Don’t you worry ’bout what’s on your mind (oh my)
I’m in no hurry I can take my time (oh my)
I’m going red and my tongue’s getting tied (tongues’s getting tied)
I’m off my head and my mouth’s getting dry.
I’m high, but I try, try, try (oh my)
Let’s spend the night together, Now I need you more than ever
Let’s spend the night together now

I feel so strong that I can’t disguise (oh my)                                            Let’s spend the night together
But I just can’t apologize (oh no)                                                                Let’s spend the night together
Don’t hang me up and don’t let me down (don’t let me down)
We could have fun just groovin’ around around and around                 Oh my, my
Let’s spend the night together Now I need you more than ever
Let’s spend the night together
Let’s spend the night together Now I need you more than ever

You know I’m smiling baby, You need some guiding baby
I’m just deciding baby; now- I need you more than ever
Let’s spend the night together Let’s spend the night together now

This doesn’t happen to me ev’ryday (oh my)                                            Let’s spend the night together
No excuses offered anyway (oh my)                                                           Let’s spend the night together
I’ll satisfy your every need (every need)
And I now know you will satisfy me Oh my, my, my, my, my
Let’s spend the night together Now I need you more than ever
Let’s spend the night together now

Early in the evenin’ just about supper time,
Over by the courthouse they’re starting to unwind.
Four kids on the corner trying to bring you up.
Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp.

Down on the corner, out in the street,
Willy and the poorboys are playin’;
Bring a nickel; tap your feet.

Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile,
Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while.
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out on his kalamazoo.
Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo.

Chorus

Chorus

You don’t need a penny just to hang around,
But if you’ve got a nickel, won’t you lay your money down?
Over on the corner there’s a happy noise.
People come from all around to watch the magic boy
