Hope Springs Eternal
Girl afraid
Where do his intentions lay ?
Or does he even have any ?
She says :
"He never really looks at me
I give him every opportunity
In the room downstairs
He sat and stared
In the room downstairs
He sat and stared
I'll never make that mistake again !"
I'll never make that mistake again
I'll never make that mistake again
Boy afraid
Prudence never pays
And everything she wants costs money
"But she doesn't even LIKE me !
And I know because she said so

Mon Pays Bleu (Durham Town)
I've gotta leave old Durham town
I've gotta leave old Durham town
I've gotta leave old Durham town
And that leavin's going to get me down
Back in nineteen-forty-four
I remember Daddy walking out the door
Mama told me he was going to war
He was leaving
Leaving, leaving, leaving, leaving me.
When I was a boy I spent my time
Sitting on the banks of the River Tyne
Watching all the ships going down the line
They were leaving
Leaving, leaving, leaving, leaving me.
Last week Mama passed away
"Goodbye Son," was all she'd say
There's no cause for me to stay
So I'm leaving
Leaving, leaving, leaving, leaving free.
