Hiawatha(Album Version) - Laurie Anderson

By the shores of gitche gumee
By the shining big- sea- water
Downward through the evening twilight
In the days that are forgotten
From the land of sky blue waters
And I said: hello operator
E memphis tennessee and she said:
I know who you're tryin to call darlin
And he's not home he's been away
But you can hear him on the airwaves
He's howlin at the moon yeah
This is your country s
And honey this next ones for you
And all along the highways
And under the big western sky they're singing
Ooo oooooo
They're singing wild blue
And way out on the prairie and up in the high
Rral they hear a voice it says:
Good evening this is captain midnight speaking
And I've got a song for you goes somethin like this:
Starlight starbright were gonna hang some new stars
In the he Tonight
They're gonna circle
By day they're gonna fly
By night were goin sky high
Yoo hooooo hooo
Yeah yoo hooo ooo hooooooooo
So good night ladies and good night gentlemen
Keep those cards
Letters coming and please don't
Call again
Geronimo and little nancy marilyn and john f dancing
Uncle took the message
And it's written on the wall
These are pictures of the houses shining
In the midnight moonlight while the
G sings love me tender
And all along the watchtowers
And under the big western sky
They're singing yoo hooooo they're singing wild blue
And wau wau up there bursting in air red rockets
Brig D glare
From the land of sky blue waters
Sent by freedoms sons
And daughters were singing
Ooo hoooooooo
Were singing wild blue were singing
Ooo hoooooooo ooo hooooooooo
And dark behind
Ose the forest rose the black
And gloomy pine trees rose the firs with ones upon them
And bright before it beat the water beat the clear
And sunny water beat the shing big- sea- water
