Shawn Phillips Hey Miss Lonely
Hey miss lonely, won't you come here soon
Have you been standing on a star-flaked snowdune
Lookin' at the moon
Feelin' pretty funny sayin' what is that?
Hey miss lonely, don't you know, where are you at?
Well now, hey miss lonely, have you been to school?
Have you been learnin' everything that you can
About the golden rule
Teacher tellin' you who you ought to be
Hey miss lonely, don't you know, you ought to be free?
Hey miss lonely, don't you feel so sad?
Things are going by in a blinding flash
It's just a passing fad
Money's quite a problem got to work to see the world
Take a letter here, bring a message there
You start to wonder if anyone cares at all, cares at
all
Fade awake thought words, foldaway bed
Redwinged blackbird, fly away Fred
Soaring free and easy high on a stormy sea, my baby
Don't you know that you can come to me
Come my baby, don't you know that you can come to me
Come my baby, don't you know that you can come to
Hey miss flipped-out, don't you ever want to scream and
shout?
Telling this sphere about all the wrong there is, my
dear
Got to remember that you're part of the day
Hey miss lonely, you can stay, don't go away
Well now, hey miss lonely, don't you feel the pain
I keep spending my cash, and I'm talking this trash
And I think I'm going to miss the train
Even though you're going to Morocco in the Spring
Hey miss lonely, don't forget your king
Will you remember to ring?
Because he's feelin' very lonely
And he's empty again, yeah
He's put you in a big brass bed now, mama
And it's tomorrow then
Got a lot of faith in his love for you be sure
Hey miss lonely, won't you be his cure
Nobody's pure,
Have fun on your tour
