When I’m Sixty-Four The Beatles

When I get older losing my hair Many years from now Will you still be sending me a Valentine Birthday greetings bottle of wine

If I'd been out till quarter to three Would you lock the door Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four

You'll be older too And if you say the word I could stay with you

I could be handy, mending a fuse When your lights have gone You can knit a sweater by the fireside Sunday mornings go for a ride

Doing the garden, digging the weeds Who could ask for more Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four

Every summer we can rent a cottage In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear We shall scrimp and save Grandchildren on your knee Vera, Chuck and Dave

Happy With You Paul McCartney I sat round all day I used to get stoned I liked to get wasted But these days I don't 'cos I'm happy, with you I got lots of good things to do, oh yeah

I walked around angry I used to feel bad But nowadays my days Don't have to be sad 'cos I'm happy, with you I got lots of good things to do, oh yeah

Like, hear the high clear robin sing Walk a bluebell carpet Watch the children playing games Catch a moon and then drop it Hear the gentle mantle roll On a frosty morning See the mighty ocean break Like a sailor's warning

I used to drink too much Forgot to come home I lied to my doctor But these days I don't 'cos I'm happy, with you I got lots of good things to do

Throw a pocketful of coins in the Trevi fountain See an ice cold running stream Rushing down the mountain Hear a new born baby lamb Calling for its mother Watching reunited friends Loving one another

Happy with you I'm happy with you Happy with you

Build a Bridge Mavis Staples

I'm tired of us living so lonely I think I know what to do Gonna build a bridge right over the mountain I will walk right over to you

Look around at our city Look at us out on the street Got kids looking over their shoulders People looking down at their feet

I'm tired of us living so lonely I hope I know what to do Gonna build a bridge right over the ocean I'm coming right over for you

When I say my life matters You can say yours does too But I betcha never have to remind anyone To look at it from your point of view

Gotta build a bridge right over the mountain Gotta build it right over the sea Gonna build a bridge right over the ocean So you can walk right over to me

Look around at our country At the people that we don't ever see Standing side by side us divided 4

Lonely in the land of the free

I'm gonna pull the shades off of my window I'm gonna let the sunlight in I'm gonna open my heart to a stranger I think I know where to begin

I'm gonna build a bridge right over the mountain I think I know what to do Gonna build a bridge right over the ocean I'm gonna walk right over to you I'm gonna walk right over to you I'm gonna walk right over to you I'm gonna walk right over to you I'm gonna walk right over to you

All Over Again Mavis Staples

Time is slow And the world gets cold Sometimes I have regrets But I ain't done yet

I'd do it All over again

With the stars all closing in I'd set out on the old ocean

I'd dream the same dreams I'd do the same things My friend I'd do it all over again All over again

You Can’t Make Old Friends Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers

What will I do when you are gone? Who's gonna tell me the truth? Who's gonna finish the stories I start, The way you always do?

When somebody knocks at the door, Someone new walks in I will smile and shake their hands, But you can't make old friends

You can't make old friends, can't make old friends It was me and you, since way back when but you can't make old friends

How will I sing when you are gone? 'Cause it won't sound the same Who'll join in on those harmony parts, When I call your name?

You can't make old friends, can't make old friends It was me and you, since way back when but you can't make old friends

When Saint Peter opens the gate, And you come walking in I'll be there just waiting for you 'Cause you can't make old friends 'Cause you can't make old friends, no no

When I am out on the stage all alone And I hear the music begin We all know the show must go on But you can't make old friends

You can't make old friends, can't make old friends And you and me, we’ll be young again, but you can't make old friends

You and me, will be together again Cause we both know, we will still be old friends

You can't make old friends Not the way we have always been 6

Another World

I need another place Will there be peace? I need another world This one's nearly gone Still have too many dreams Never seen the light I need another world A place where I can go Another World Another World

I'm gonna miss the sea I'm gonna miss the snow I'm gonna miss the bees I'll miss the things that grow I'm gonna miss the trees I'll miss the sun I'll miss the animals I'll miss you everyone Another World Another World

I need another place Will there be peace? I need another world This one's nearly gone
