12 Feb 03 - 02:10 PM (#888739) Subject: Lyr Req: At My Window, Sad and Lonely From: Frankham Woody Guthrie used to sing this song. Has it been recorded on Billy Brag's Mermaid Avenue with another tune? I remember how Woody sang it but can't remember more lyrics. Anybody got 'em? Thanks. Frank |

Every day is sad and lonely every night is sad and blue Do you ever think of me my darling as you sail that ocean blue? At my window, sad and lonely, I stand and look across the sea I, sad and lonely, wonder, do you ever think of me? Will you find another sweetheart In some far and distant land? Sad and lonely now I wonder if our boat will ever land? Ships may ply the stormy ocean planes may fly the stormy sky Sad and lonely but remember I will love you till I die WORDS: Woody Guthrie 1939 - MUSIC: Jeff Tweedy |

Was it from Mermaid Avenue or did you find it in a book? Reason is, I remember Woody singing a tune for it and wondered if others even knew it. Thanks, Frank |

16 Feb 03 - 10:39 AM (#891498) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: At My Window, Sad and Lonely From: Frankham Mary, went to www.winmix.com and couldn't find any artists who did it. I typed it in and got all kinds of irrelevant information. Can you tell me please who are some of the artists that you found who did it? Maybe I can shortcut the process? Frank |

I didn't see your question to me until this a.m. So....I apologize for not answering you before this. I typed in the song...in winmx.com on the weekend and only... came up with the Mermaid Avenue... I did not try to type in Woody Guthrie.. usually on the weekends when lots of people are on line I find the best luck to get the songs that I am looking for . Best of luck.... Mary |
