Winter was cold and the clothing was thinBut the gentle shepherd calls the tuneOh, dear mother what shall I do?First please your eyes and then your ears, JennyExchanging love tokens say goodnightLay down my dear sisterWon't you lay and take your rest?Won't you lay your head upon your saviors breast?And I love you but Jesus loves you the bestAnd I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnightLord, I bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnightOne of these mornings bright and early and fineGoodnight, goodnightNot a cricket, not a spirit going to shout me onGoodnight, goodnightI go walking in the valley of the shadow of deathGoodnight, goodnightAnd his rod and his staff shall comfort meGoodnight, goodnightOh John, the wine he saw the signGoodnight, goodnightOh, John say, I seen a number of signsGoodnight, goodnightTell a for the ark that wonderful boatGoodnight, goodnightYou know they built it on the land getting water to floatGoodnight, goodnightOh, tell B for the beast at the ending of the woodGoodnight, goodnightYou know it ate all the children when they wouldn't be goodGoodnight, goodnightI remember quite well, I remember quite wellGoodnight, goodnightAnd I was walking in Jerusalem just like JohnGoodnight, goodnight, goodnightWho would lose and who would bruiseOr who would live quite prettily?And who would love what comes alongAnd fill the air with joyous songWho would go and who would comeOr who would simply linger?And who would hide behind your chairAnd steal your crystallized ginger?Nebulous nearnesses cry to meAt this timeless moment someone dear to meWants me near, makes me highI can hear vibrations flyThrough mangoes, pomegranates and planesAll the sameWhen it reaches me and teaches meTo sighWho would mouse and who would lionOr who would be the tamer?And who would hear directions clearFrom the unnameable namer?Who would skip and who would plotOr who would lie quite stilly?And who would ride backwards on a giraffe?Stopping every so often to laughAmoebas are very smallOh ah ee ooThere's absolutely no strifeLiving the timeless life, I don't need a wifeLiving the timeless lifeIf I need a friend I just give a wriggleSplit right down the middleAnd when I look there's two of meBoth as handsome as can beOh, here we go slithering, here we goSlithering and squelching onOh, here we go slithering, here we goSlithering and squelching onOh ah ee ooThere's absolutely no strifeLiving the timeless lifeBlack hair, brown hair feather and scaleSeed and stamen and all unnamed lives that liveTurn your quivering nerves in my directionTurn your quivering nerves in my directionFeel the energy projection of my cells wishes you wellMay the long time sun shine upon youAll love surround youAnd the pure light within youGuide you all the way onMay the long time sun shine upon youAll love surround youAnd the pure light within youGuide you all the way onMay the long time sun shine upon youAll love surround youAnd the pure light within youGuide you all the way on...
