What I Want This To Accomplish

I love music. I love all kinds of music. I love a good melody and I love good lyrics. Here's the thing. Too often I have noticed people getting lost in the melodic side of a song and never listen to the lyrics, the message that the songwriter is trying to share with the listener. Words mean things and there are a lot of songs out there with great lyrics. Here you will find love and hurt, pain and longing, emotions and intimate thoughts from songwriters over the years. There will be no commentary from me on the lyrics. Just the words. The words for you to read, process and ponder and hopefully come away with a little more meaning to a song than just a lovely melody. A more complete understanding of where the artist is coming from. - Bill Clark

GITCHY GOOMY

Gitchy Goomy, gitchy gaddy
Sit you laddie down on your daddy's knee
And ain't it a nice place to be

Goggin noggin, papa's rockin'
Like a mockin' bird in a windy tree
And that ain't no place for me

Been there one time, been there two times
Been there three times
More than I care to be
But we're gonna make it through
Gitchy Goomy

Life is good, life is fine, life is warm
Life is kind, can you see it?
Love is great, love is right
Keeps you warm late at night
When you need it

Baby boy, daddy's joy, life's a toy
But you don't wanna break it
Like a sweet symphony,
All you need is the key, you can play it

Gitchy Goomy, gitchy gaddy
Sit you laddie down while I have my say
Now don't be runnin' away

Goggin noggin, papa's talkin'
Don't go walkin' off like you mean to play
Well, you can have it your way

Been there one time, been there two times
Been there three times
More than I care to say
But you're gonna be okay,
Gitchy Goomy

Life is good, life is fine, life is warm
Life is kind, can you see it?
Love is great, love is right
Keeps you warm late at night
When you need it

Baby boy, daddy's joy, life's a toy
But you don't wanna break it
Like a sweet symphony,
All you need is the key, you can play it

Been there one time, been there two times
Been there three times
More than I care to be

Seen it one time, seen it two times
Seen it three times,
Lord 'n' it's plain to see
Ah, you gonna make it through
Gitchy Goomy

You 'n me gonna make it through
Gitchy Goomy
Ah, you gonna make it through
Gitchy Goomy
