Mary Travers is 70.

Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the flowers gone?
Girls have picked them every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the young girls gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the young girls gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the young girls gone?
Taken husbands every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the young men gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the young men gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the young men gone?
Gone for soldiers every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the soldiers gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Gone to graveyards every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the graveyards gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Covered with flowers every one
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

Where have all the Republicans gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the Republicans gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the Republicans gone?
Prison, rehab, unemployed every one.
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Waugh - nice find, Chuck. Thanks very much. Just to show you the universe in a circle, just last weekend I was fiddling around with my KT vinyls, trying to figure out how to digitize them through the computer.

And I edited out your name error.

Yeah, well, you better be careful, because if you Get a Hammer and Light One Candle with the Stewball you might find yourself Leaving on a Jet Plane and after All your Trials end up Inside across the River of Jordan and you may find your ass Blowing in the wind and being The Marvelous Toy Before the Day is Done
