1. TELEPHONE LINE

"Hello, how are you?
Have you been alright through all those lonely,
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely nights?"
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you ev'rything
If you pick up that telephone, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, How you feelin'?
Are you still the same, don't you realize the things we did,
We did were all for real, not a dream.
I just can't believe they've all faded out of view,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oo.

Doo da wop, doo bee doo da wop, do wah doo lang.
Blue days, black nights, doo wah doo lang.

I look into the sky, The love you need ain't gonna see you through,
And I wonder why the little things you planned ain't comin' true.

Oh, oh, telephone line, Give me some time, I'm living in twilight.
Oh, oh, telephone line, Give me some time, I'm living in twilight.

O.K. so no one's answering,
Well, can't you just let it ring a little longer,
Longer, longer oh, I'll just sit tight,
Through shadows of the night let it ring forever more, oh, hoh hoh hoh.

Doo da wop, doo bee doo da wop, do wah doo lang
Blue days, black nights, doo wah doo lang
Doo da wop, doo bee doo da wop, do wah doo lang


2. POORBOY (the Greenwood)

Me I'm just a poor boy, from across the far southland,
And I've traveled many days to reach this place to mke my stand,
I fell in with a merry band, and drank away the hours.

(Chorus)
Rollin' on, I've been rollin' on,
And my head is high, from the battle won,
Laid down my life for the Greenwood

The city boys, and the country boys, they come from miles around,
To defy their king and country, save the poor folks from the hand,
Of the thieving dukes and abbotts, and the gentry of the land.

(Chorus)

Sweet Maid marion, don't you do me no wrong,
Stay on the right side, the Greenwood is your home,
The dancing girls and the open fires, the wine that flows like water.

(Chorus)
