Rotterdam 05:13
From dream to dream From dream to dream From dream to dream… If Rotterdam were only steps away Ooooh, I’d be there in a day If Rotterdam were only lakes away I’d get there wet and warmed by your embrace Warm… ‘Cause I’m working The North and South below Where I’m going next I don’t rightly know ‘Cause I’m working my way through life it seems Hanging my shooting stars from dream to dream Hanging my shooting stars If Rotterdam waits for company The shortest road is longer than it seems Make it back or make a choice to stay My mind will wander back there anyway Yes, my mind will wander back ‘Cause I’m working The North and South below Where I’m going next I don’t rightly know ‘Cause I’m working my way through life it seems Hanging my shooting stars from dream to dream Hanging my shooting stars from dream to dream From dream to dream From dream to dream Yeah, ‘cause I’m working the colder seasons first I can get back here to quench my thirst ‘Cause I’m wading through colder seas it seems Hanging my shooting stars from dream to dream.

Even the oceans can recall The smell of summer grass Even arctic colds have known The heat from sand to glass Sunshine glows on rows of stone Where spring has found its fall Harbingers of life on seas That men have never known Men have never known Men have never When firmament and sullen waters Wash the womb away Stars will we become anew And shed the light of day Even the smell of summer grass The oceans can recall No need here for sand or glass Among these kingdom halls Sunshine glows on rows of stone Where spring has found its fall Harbingers of life on seas That men have never known Men have never known Men have never When firmament and sullen waters Wash the womb away Stars will we become anew And shed the light of day The light of day The light of day

I've got a mule, her name is Sal Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal She's a good old worker and a good old pal Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal We've hauled some barges in our day Filled with lumber, coal, and hay And every step of the way From Albany to Buffalo Where would I be without my Sal Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal I'd like to see you a mule pull as good as my pal Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal Get up, mule, that lock, We'll make Rome by six o'clock One more trip and then back down we'll go Right back home to Buffalo Low bridge, everybody down Low bridge for we're coming to a town And you'll always know your neighbour And you'll always know your pal If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal. A friend of mine once got her sore He went home with a broken jaw She let fly with an iron tow Kicked him back to Buffalo Low bridge, everybody down Low bridge for we're coming to a town And you'll always know your neighbour And you'll always know your pal If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal.

You work and work for years and years, you're always on the go You never take a minute off, too busy makin' dough Someday you say, you'll have your fun, when you're a millionaire Imagine all the fun you'll have in your old rockin' chair Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think Enjoy yourself, while you're still in the pink The years go by, as quickly as a wink Enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself, it's later than you think You're gonna take that ocean trip, no matter come what may You've got your reservations made, but you just can't get away Next year for sure, you'll see the world, you'll really get around But how far can you travel when you're six feet underground? Your heart of hearts, your dream of dreams, your ravishing brunette She's left you and she's now become somebody else's pet Lay down that gun, don't try my friend to reach the great beyond You'll have more fun by reaching for a redhead or a blond Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think Enjoy yourself, while you're still in the pink The years go by, as quickly as a wink Enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself, it's later than you think
