Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Tom Paxton Song From: Tootler Date: 22 Sep 08 - 05:56 PM Google "Tom Paxton". There are plenty of sites with Lyrics on. You might even get a link to his own site <g> |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Tom Paxton Song From: Jim Dixon Date: 23 Sep 08 - 08:32 PM ONE SHIP IS SAILING appears on 2 of Tom Paxton's albums: "Peanut Butter Pie" (1992) and "American Troubadour" (2003). I was able to transcribe this much from a couple of sound samples: One star is shining, high in the evening sky, Just over baby's head, soft as a lullaby. That's where the sun man lives, down with the sandman's lies (?) Here comes the.... ...kiss in the silver sand. Blow, blow, the breezes blow, cooling the baby's brow. Soft, soft, the breezes blow. Baby's sleeping now. Soft, soft, the breezes blow. Baby's sleeping now. |

Subject: Lyr Add: ONE SHIP IS SAILING (Tom Paxton) From: GUEST,Mia Date: 25 Nov 10 - 07:51 AM Probably far too late now, but I have the album Peanut Butter Pie and managed to transcribe: One ship is sailing Over the deep blue sea One sail is billowing Billowing the sweet baby Home flies the yellow bird Down sinks the red, red sun Close, close those sleepy eyes Baby's day is done Close, close those sleepy eyes Baby's day is done. One ship is sailing Off to a faraway land Blue water rippling Kissing the silver sand Blow, blow, the breezes blow Cooling the baby's brow Soft, soft, the breezes move Baby's sleeping now Soft, soft, the breezes move Baby's sleeping now One star is shining High in the evening sky Just over baby's head Soft as a lullaby That's where the Sandman lives Down where the Sandman lies Here comes the Sandman now Closing the baby's eyes (For future reference if anyone else comes looking!) |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: One Ship Is Sailing (Tom Paxton) From: GUEST,leeneia Date: 02 Feb 16 - 08:35 PM Hello, Mengying. Welcome to the Mudcat. Do you know who the Sandman is? The Sandman puts sand in children's eyes when it's time for them to go to sleep. Actually, that's just a a story someone started because children rub their eyes when they are tired. |
