One By One [ top ]
One by one People come Give your name Lose your pain Sing together Come to me gently for I want you to join me for a song or two I’ve traveled through a lot of time and space just to share a feeling True songs are often sad these days and yet I’ll sing for you Voices raised in song are meant for healing The world in pain is more than I can deal with but people one by one is a different thing Songs are all I have to try to heal with Thoughts of peace and love I’ll truly sing One by one People come Give your name Lose your pain Sing together Ever since I was born, just like you I want to live that’s all Live on my own in a world away from hatred Wars and greed and guns won’t feed the hungry children all; Look what is happening to the life that we call sacred. The world in pain is more than I can deal with but people one by one is a different thing Songs are all I have to try to heal with Thoughts of peace and love I’ll truly sing. One by one People come Give your name Lose your pain Sing together.

Friendly man, friendly man Friendly man na na na na A Friendly man, friendly man Friendly person... A friendly man is hard to find A lot of life is so unkind Life makes too many people cold It makes them sad when they grow old. Friendly man, friendly man Friendly man, na na na na A friendly man, friendly man Friendly person... Earth is sweet, sun is warm How did man’s society get deformed? Was it the money we got and spent? It hasn’t seemed hard to love prevent. Friendly man, friendly man Friendly man na na na na A friendly man, friendly man Friendly person... A friendly man is hard to find A lot of life is so unkind Life makes too many people cold It makes them sad when they grow old. Friendly man, friendly man Friendly man na na na na A friendly man, friendly man Friendly person

Like to sing about sunshine, like to sing about rain, Like to sing about good times, like to sing about pain; Like to think about friendship, like to think about skin Like to think about Jesus, like to think about sin. Like to talk about horses, and the way they run; Like to talk to robins in the morning sun. Like to take some chances, like to play some ball Like to play with you girl, if you’re not too tall. Like to love my brother, like to love your wife Like to love the peace time, like to love my life.

Go lean on a river you old master trouble giver You’re just another mother fake so go lean over on a lake When your baby says she loves you never do you any wrong Then she puts herself above you you just sing to her this song Go lean on a river you old master trouble giver You’re just another mother fake so go lean over on a lake Who’s that man saying he wants me to walk in line, do as I am told? I’ll do what my mind says to me; Let’s all tell him where to go. Go lean on a river you old master trouble giver You’re just another mother fake so go lean over on a lake.

Going back to simple livin’ Going back to whatever I was before Gonna play some ball, some music Ain’t gonna rush no more- ‘Cause I’m fond of the fun that I now lack; I’m going back. Why should I become a servant Doin’ work that I never did like no how. This is a dream that someone else had, I never dreamed ‘til now. and I’m scheming to get what I now lack... I’m going back Where love was made outdoors and the summer time was fruitful Gonna sell my car, and ride a horse and leave the crowds, I knew it full well... Going back to simple livin’ Going back to whatever I was before Gonna play some ball, some music Ain’t gonna rush no more No, I ain’t gonna rush no more.

Come away with me and love again Once more try to be my friend and lover. Love me. If I could take you to another world where just you and I could learn to live together We could leave behind the memories of how our love was lost like hidden treasure to be found again in some forgotten place Where we learn again to read each other’s faces Come away with me and love again Once more try to be my friend and lover Love me. If we could free ourselves from all the petty things of life I think we could learn to love And when you think of how we spent the time so wrong before it has to be our turn to love If we really live to love each other more We can learn again about what love is for. Come away with me and love again Once more, try to be my friend and lover Love me. Love me.

I’d like to thank my friends for being my friends It means a lot more to me than you’ll ever know Think how different life would be If none of you were around to see me through Bad as we all are, we’re good enough to show it when we can and not worry when we don’t I hope you have that same different feeling in your chest from friendly favors done. Communion time with smoke and wine Make you want to listen, take for all is given Think and dream and share your mental wealth The world is out to get us, but it can’t Because we’re friends, and because we had a picnic. And while we helped each other carry weight, The storm, it went away. And every time I think of it Oh, God, I love you all Love you all. I’d like to thank my friends for being my friends It means a lot more to me than you’ll ever know Think how different life would be If none of you were around to see me through Bad as we all are, we’re good enough to show it when we can and not worry when we don’t I hope you have that same different feeling at your chest from friendly favors done. Thank you all Love you all Thank you all.
