RED RUBBER BALL

I imagine most of you know that these are all Paul Simon's songs that we're singing. There is -amongst the 23 or 24 songs that Paul has written, there is one that we have never recorded. It's about the only one, and a group called The Cyrkle beat us to it, recorded it, and sold about 890,000 copies of it ...called Red Rubber Ball. I should have known You bid me farewell There's a lesson to be lerned from this And I learned it very well Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me And I think it's gonna be all right Yeah, the worst is over now The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball You never care For secrets I confide For you I'm just an ornament Something for your pride Always runnin', never carin' That's the life you live Stolen minutes of your time were all you had to give And I think it's gonna be all right Yeah, the worst is over now The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball The story's in the past With nothing to recall I've got my life to live And I don't need you at all The roller coaster ride we took is nearly at an end I bought me ticket with my tears, that's all I'm going to spend And I think it's gonna be all right Yeah, the worst is over now The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball And I think it's gonna be all right Yeah, the worst is over now The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball
