Sorry, Winston made me do it...

To My Father's House

Come and go with me
to my father's house
to my father's house.
Come and go with me
to my father's house
to my father's house.
There'll be no cryin' there.
There'll be no dyin' there.
Come and go with me
to my father's house
to my father's house.
In my father's house.
There are so many mansions there.
If they were not true
you know I would have told you so.
I'm goin' to prepare a place for you
and where I go you can go there too.
Come and go with me
to my father's house
to my father's house.
Come and go with me
to my father's house
to my father's house.
Come and go with me
to my father's house
to my father's house.
There'll be no cryin' there.
There'll be no dyin' there.
Come and go with me
to my father's house
to my father's house.

(Do you remember who suggested how to spell your handle )

I'm at a stage where I really just enjoy the terrific melodies and rephrains of their music, not so much the specific lyrics at this point, but that was a good one for sure.

This is really some of the first pop music I remember hearing as a very young boy back in the early 70's.

My sister who is 8 years my senior had a reel tape player and she played a lot of "Humphries" back then.

...the pretty girls are coming. There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago...

Mexicooo

Mexicooo

MODS, WAKE UP !!! CLOSE THIS THREAD AS SOON AS POSSIBLE !!! IT IS NOTHING BUT PSYCICAL TORTURE !!!

Until the unavoidable deletion of this thread I will defend myself with all means possible :

UNA PALOMA BLANCA
George Baker Selection (The Netherlands)


When the sun shines on the mountain
And the night is on the run
It's a new day
It's a new way
And I fly up to the sun

I can feel the morning sunlight
I can smell the new-mown hay
I can hear God's voice is calling
For my golden sky light way

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away

Once I had my share of losing
for they locked me on a chain
Yes they tried to break my power
oh I still can feel the pain

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away
