Lyric Lullabys, Legends and Lies

(Shel Silverstein)

Gather round fellows I ll tell you some tales
About murder and blueberry pies
And heroes and hells and bottomless wells
And lullabys, legends and lies.

And gather round ladies come sit at my feet
I ll sing about warm sunny skies
There s mermaids and beans and lovin machines
In my lullabys, legends and lies.

Lullabys, legends and lies and lies
Lullabys, legends and lies
I ll sing you a song then I ll shuffle along
With my lullabys, legends and lies .

I may make you wonder I may make you smile
I may bring the tears to your eyes
But when I disappear Lord you ll wish I was here
With more lullabys, legends and lies.

So open the bottle and pass a guitar
And look in my warm lovin eyes
I ll take you to places you ain t been before
With my lullabys, legends and lies.

Lullabys, legends and lies
Lullabys, legends and lies
I ll sing you a song then I ll shuffle along
With my lullabys, legends and lies...
