Puerto Rican nursery rhymes 
angels in the snow and thyme.
And I'm keeping my mind on that rose 
in a church in Spanish Harlem.
They got Watchtowers and Awakes for free
in the laundromats for you and me.
But you can't take me down that way 
as I'm not sinking.
And if we go down one time
next time not gonna be the last time.
And I'm contemplating that rose 
in a church in Spanish Harlem.
 Piano Solo
Didn't I bring you precious gifts 
Came to kiss you on the lips
Didn't even appear 
to beg your pardon.
To lay out in the morning sun
feel the cool breeze and the one.
Right there in my garden.
Puerto Rican nursery rhymes etc...
