How Have You Been - John Sebastian[00:00:00]
How have you been my darling children [00:00:00]
While I have been away in the west [00:00:10]
Though you are strangers [00:00:18]
I feel that I know you [00:00:22]
By the way that you treat me[00:00:27]
And offer to feed me[00:00:31]
And egarly ask if I'll stay for a rest [00:00:34]
Now sit yourselves down in a pile here before me [00:00:43]
I wish I had presents for each of your smiles [00:00:50]
But I have been traveling [00:00:57]
Without much to carry [00:01:00]
Just a broken guitar case with tape on the sides [00:01:04]
A bag and a few signs to help me get rides [00:01:10]
But here are some beads from a throat of a princess [00:01:22]
Who reigned in the years 'round 200 BC [00:01:29]
Divid them and wear them [00:01:36]
And make sure to share them [00:01:39]
Because I want you to have them in hopes that'll be [00:01:43]
As lovely as the lady who gave them to me [00:01:49]
And here is a strange European guitar string [00:02:00]
I found on the floor of a Club in Marselles [00:02:07]
It's fat for the third string[00:02:14]
And skinny for the fourth string [00:02:16]
But I keep in hopes that I use it someday [00:02:21]
It's funny how people just keep things that way [00:02:27]
And here is a turtle from a Long Island Expressway [00:02:38]
He says that his home has been covered with tar [00:02:45]
So I gave him a ride on the back of my suitcase [00:02:51]
And he says he'd like to stay here in your yard [00:02:58]
At long last his life won't be quite so hard [00:03:04]
How have you been my darling children [00:03:13]
While I have been away in the west [00:03:21]
Though you are strangers [00:03:28]
I feel that I know you [00:03:31]
By the way that you treat me[00:03:35]
And offer to feed me[00:03:38]
And egarly ask if I'll stay for a rest [00:03:41]
By the way that you treat me[00:03:49]
And offer to feed me[00:03:52]
And egarly ask if I'll stay for a rest[00:03:55]
