      - John Lennon and Paul McCartney

        (The Beatles - from the album Abbey Road)



    [Golden Slumbers]

    Once there was a way to get back homeward

    Once there was a way to get back home

    Sleep pretty darling do not cry

    And I will sing a lullaby



    Golden slumbers fill your eyes

    Smiles awake you when you rise

    Sleep pretty darling do not cry

    And I will sing a lullaby



    Once there was a way to get back homeward

    Once there was a way to get back home

    Sleep pretty darling do not cry

    And I will sing a lullaby



    [Carry That Weight]

    Boy, you're gonna carry that weight

    Carry that weight a long time

    Boy, you're gonna carry that weight

    Carry that weight a long time



    I never give you my pillow

    I only send you my invitation

    And in the middle of the celebrations

    I break down



    Boy, you're gonna carry that weight

    Carry that weight a long time

    Boy, you're gonna carry that weight

    Carry that weight a long time



    Yeah, all right!

    Are you gonna be in my dreams, tonight?



    And in the end

    The love you take

    Is equal to the love you lend
