Where have all the flowers, gone?.
I(ed roses for a blue lady, your best white
orchid for her wedding gown, Rases; for
Mama; a roomful of roses. The snow is, on
the roses; days of wine and roses.
Your,pretty roses camt✓ to late. The first
cot is the deepest.
You don't send me flowers anymore. I'll
pick you a daisy a . day, dear. I never
promised you a rose garden.
Where have alt the flowers gone? The
answer is blowing in the winds four strong
winds.
The above may not make any sense to you,.
but it's a musical question answered with
titles and; lyries from other songs.
A few months ago I wrote a column: on.
musical messa$es, 1 decided to try another
4. one,not because of popular demand; but
I because I, had a long list of tunes left, As 1
studied them more closely, 1 noticed many
songs asked questions that were answered
by other tunes.
For example, what's your mama's name,
child?
K -K -K -Katie, Mona Lisa, Rosemarie,
Annie Laurie,.' Delilah, Diana, Delta Dawn,.
Paper Rosie, Devil Woman, Voodoo Woman,
Cat Ballou, Mrs. Robinson, Sweet Caroline,
Lucille, Maybelline or. Mammy, Mammy.
Julie? Who's Julie? I'm not Lisa; my name
is Julie.
If the question changes to "what's your
papa's name, child?" the answers are still
abundant.
Davy Crockett, Johnny Canack, Bad, Bad.
Leroy- Brown, 'Big Bath John, Danny. Boy,
Paddy Doyle the Poacher, Kawliga,; Fiddter
on the Roof, ;Rhinestone Cowboy, Country
Boy,; Bobby McGee, King of the Road or; My
Papa.
Which way you goin' Billie? Galveston?
Abilene? • Seattle? Saskatchewan?
Ontari-ari-o? Kingston town? .Durham,
stork
town? dirty old town' 1.'..e been, eve
where.
Which way you gon? Billie? Sam's', FIttee.
The rail : Corne Rack ,Saloom.
Which, way you pin' 'Billie? Wolf Creek
Pass, way up on the Great Divide; truckin"
on downthe other side.
Do you know the way to San Jose? Follow
me. I'm, leavin' on a jet plane. 1'1l fly- away.,
Where's the playground, Susie?
Down in the boondocks; in a mansion on
the hill; in the swamp;. down on the farm; out
behind the barn; down by the riverside;
sight" on the _dock of the bay..
Does your chewing gum lose its flavour oa;.
the bedpost overnight? Fool!
Have you never been mellow?
I'm praying for rain in California, so the
grapes. Will grow and they can: make,
wine; stomp, stomp them grapes)
Why Y yfor?
Wh ,have you Left the one you left me
Making the best of a bad situation.
Don't it make my brown eyes blue? Little
green apples.
Don't it make my brown eyes blue? 1 left
my heart in San :Francisco. All alone am 1.
Alone again, naturally, Blue eyes crying in
the rain.,'
Can't you hear the song? Sounds of
silence, Silence is golden. Hear the whisper,
of the raindrops blowing soft against ,my
window.
Can't you hear the song? Sneaky snake
gees dancin', wiggling and hissing; when he
goes•crawling through the grass it tickles his
,underneath:
The snakes•s crawl at night and 1 don't like
spiders and snakes.
Can't you hear the song? Disco Duck, You
and I travel to the beat of a different drum.
Seventy-six trombones. The band played on..
The above doesn't make much• sense, but
"can't you hear the song?'.'..
