The Music Never Stopped
  -----------------------
    There's mosquitos on the river
  Fish are rising up like birds
  It's been hot for seven weeks now,
  Too hot to even speak now,
  Did you hear what I just heard?
    Say it might have been a fiddle
  or it could have been the wind
  but there seems to be a beat now
  I can feel it in my feet now
  Listen here it comes again!
    There's a band out on the highway
  They're high steppin'into town
  They're a rainbow full of sound
  It's fireworks, calliopes and clowns
  Everybody's dancin'
  C'mon children, C'mon children
  Come on clap your hands
    Sun went down in honey,
  Moon came up in wine
  Stars were spinnin' dizzy, Lord
  the band kept us too busy
  We forgot about the time.
    They're a band beyond description
  Like Jehovah's favorite choir
  People join in hand 'n hand
  While the music plays the band, Lord
  They're settin' us on fire.
    Crazy rooster crowin' midnight
  Balls of lightnin' roll along
  Old men sing about their dreams
  Women laugh and children scream
  And the band keeps playin' on.
    Keep on dancin' thru to daylight
  Greet the mornin' air with song
  No one noticed, but the band's all packed and gone
  Was it ever here at all?
  But they keep on dancin'
  C'mon children, C'mon children
  Come on clap your hands
    Well the cool breeze came on Tuesday
  And the corn's a bumper crop
  The fields are full of dancin'
  Full of singin' and romancin', cause
  The music never stopped.
