Aaron Copland — Top: Thats crazy

[TOP] That's crazy! Hoppin' the freight After it's late Sleepin' in a railroad crate Is that how you see Laurie? Livin' on the run Burnin' in the sun Wantin' food and havin' none Is that how you see her? Drifting around Town after town Worried 'cause your luck is down! Is that how you see Laurie? Think, Martin, think! Our kind's no good for a girl like her She don't fit with guys like us She belongs in a soft white dress Upon that graduation stand With a mother and grandpa to make a fuss That she gets that roll with the ribbon band And look at you! You're crazy! Talkin' so big Big when you talk Walkin' down an endless road Do what you must Just what you do Don't take on an extra load What have you got? What can you give? What will you eat? Where will you live? Is that how you see Laurie? You're a daft bird, Martin, with only one pair of wings One pair fo wings that's got to fly south when it snows And north when it's spring Got to fly when the wind blows And when the world sings You can't change now, your ways is set You gotta go on so you better forget You got to walk in the wind You got to walk in the wind Got to fly in the weather Got to walk in the wind Got to fly in the weather Got to walk in the wind Got to fly in the weather! (Top goes back to the shed and gets their bundles.) C'mon hurry boy, day's acomin' C'mon we've got no time... Take it from me kid, and try to forget Try to forget Hurry! It'll soon be day [MARTIN] Laurie, Laurie, forgive me (Top and Martin leave.) [MARTIN] (from the distance) Forgive me…
