THE PLACES, TIMES, AND THE PEOPLE

SO MANY THINGS TO REMEMBER

AND SO MANY MORE TO FORGET

AND ALL THAT I REMEMBER

IS ALL THAT I'M TRYING TO FORGET

THE PLACES TIMES AND THE PEOPLE

A TANGLE OF MISFORTUNE I HAVE FOUND

LORD THE EAGLE CRIES HIGH ABOVE THE STEEPLE

TO THE PLACES TIMES AND PEOPLE ON THE GROUND

WHEN WILL THE PEOPLE

GO WHERE THEY'RE GOIN'

WHEN WILL THEY ALL COME BACK

THE PLACES THEY GO TO

THE TIME THAT IT TAKES THEM

MAYBE THEY'LL NEVER COME BACK

STANDIN' LOOKIN' OUT OF MY WINDOW

THE RAIN IS LIKE THE TEARDROPS I HAVE CRIED

LORD THERE'S NOTHIN' BUT A ROOM AND A WINDOW

AND THE TIMES IN THE PAST I HAVE TRIED

THE PLACES TIMES AND THE PEOPLE

A TANGLE OF MISFORTUNE I HAVE FOUND

AND THE EAGLE CRIES HIGH ABOVE THE STEEPLE

TO THE PLACES TIMES AND PEOPLE ON THE GROUND
