      • The Lark In The Morning

        Trad. English Folk song arranged by Anna Tabbush (ROUD 151)

         

         

        Lay still my fond shepherd and don't you rise yet

        It's a fine dewy morning and besides, my love, it is wet

        Oh no, my bright Floro, it is no such thing

        It's a bright sun a-shining and the lark is on the wing

         

        Oh the lark in the morning she rises from her nest

        And she mounts in the air with the dew about her breast

        And like the pretty ploughboy she'll whistle and sing

        And at night she’ll return to her own nest again

         

        When the ploughboy has done all he's got for to do

        He trips to the meadows where the grass is all cut down

        The nightingale she whistles upon the hawthorn spray

        And the moon is a-shining upon the new-mown hay

         

        Oh the lark in the morning she rises from her nest

        And she mounts in the air with the dew about her breast

        And like the pretty ploughboy she'll whistle and sing

        And at night she’ll return to her own nest again

         

        Never One Thing

        by May Erlewine

         

        oo, oo, oo, oo x2

         

        I’m the underbelly, I am the claw

        Never one thing, no not one thing at all

        I’m a street fighter, I’m a prayer for peace

        I’m a holy roller, I’m a honey bee

         

        I am the truth, I am the lie,

        I am the ground, I am the sky,

        I am the silence, I am the call

        Never one thing, no not one thing at all

         

        I’m the underbelly, I am the claw

        Never one thing, no not one thing at all

        I’m a street fighter, I’m a prayer for peace

        I’m a holy roller, I’m a honey bee

         

        I am hope, I am defeat,

        I am broken, I am complete

        I am the grace, I am the fall

        Never one thing, no not one thing at all

         

        I’m the underbelly, I am the claw

        Never one thing, no not one thing at all

        I’m a street fighter, I’m a prayer for peace

        I’m a holy roller, I’m a honey bee

         

        oo, oo, oo, oo

         

        I am a mother, I am the child

        I am the meek, I am the wild

        I am the witch, I am the saint

        I am alive, never one thing

         

        I'm the underbelly, I am the claw etc...

        x2

         

        oo, oo, oo, oo etc...

         

         

         

        Au Revoir

        by Anna Tabbush

         

         

        This is not goodbye

        This is au revoir

        Though we part our ways

        Take me in your heart

        You’re not alone

        When we’re miles apart

        This is not goodbye

        This is au revoir
