15) what will be divided -
oh, what will be divided
when the time for parting comes?
what will be divided
when it comes to yours and mine?
how shall we separate
what we are from what we own?
and who will count the cost
when every farthing is laid down ?
and who will count the cost
when the last farthing is laid down?
if the laughter be too hearty
then our clerk may be deceived
turn two pages o'er together
in the column, accounts received
if a tear fall on the ledger
will the reckoning still be true?
will it not blot out some property
that's accrued to me or you?
then who will strike a balance
'twixt the tithing and the time?
tell the value of each moment
when it comes to your and mine?
and we may both feel cheated
and we may both feel sad
if we are not properly credited
to the sum of what we had.
what can be divided
will be piled here and there
item: a broken Cuckoo clock
i've time now to repair
so here, take back your loneliness
and give to me my pain
oh, your mare is in the meadow, dear
she's standing in the rain
what cannot be divided
is a cloth that has no seam
the warp and woof were me and you
we wove it in a dream
our love, it was the shuttle, see
where it's spilled upon the floor
alas, the loom is silent now
and the colors come no more
oh, what will be divided
when the time for parting comes?
what will be divided
when it comes to yours and mine?
how shall we separate
what we are from what we own?
and who will count the cost
when every farthing is laid down ?
and who will count the cost
when the last farthing is laid down?

2) death of a hobo -
oh come, oh come, emanuel
and ransom captive israel
that mourns in lowly exile here
until the son of man appear
rejoice, rejoice, emanuel
will come to thee, oh israel
and ransom captive israel
that mourns in lowly exile here
until the son of man appear
rejoice, rejoice, emanuel
will come to thee, oh israel
the orange blossom special
is a'ballin' up the Bowery
all air horn, rush and thunder
past the Palace Hotel
in that second story flop
Perry Como, with a mop
is already cleanin' up
the muscatel
that's where you dropped your bottle
when that trucker hit the throttle
and you lay all still and crumpled
at the top of the stairs
now the ambulance is waiting
for the short ride up to Bellevue
but that won't change the verdict
when they get you there
it's just one last mercy mission
and it's just a rubber stamp
on the record of your DOA
condition
'cause you won't be comin' back
except one time in the obits
of the Hobo Gazette
final edition
as they carry you through the door
'cross your last three squares of sidewalk
your Echo Harp slips
from your inside pocket
along with your effects
one dirty racing form
one billfold, very flat
one broken locket
oh, is this what laid you low, my friend
is this what left you lyin'
what broke your heart
and drove you to despair
why, it's only a gambler's itch
just a worn out dollar bill
just a picture of someone
with a ribbon in her hair
why then, oh susanna
don't you cry for me
i come from Alabama
with my banjo on my knee
oh susanna,
don't you cry for me
i'm goin' to Louisiana
my true love for to see.
