Gaily bedight,
   A gallant knight,
In sunshine and in shadow, 
   Had journeyed long, 
   Singing a song,
In search of Eldorado.

   But he grew old—
   This knight so bold— 
And o’er his heart a shadow— 
   Fell as he found
   No spot of ground
That looked like Eldorado.

   And, as his strength 
   Failed him at length,
He met a pilgrim shadow— 
   ‘Shadow,’ said he, 
   ‘Where can it be—
This land of Eldorado?’

   ‘Over the Mountains
   Of the Moon,
Down the Valley of the Shadow, 
   Ride, boldly ride,’
   The shade replied,—
‘If you seek for Eldorado!’

Slow Poke
Pee Wee King & His Golden West Cowboys
F: (Slow poke, slow poke, I'm a silly old slow poke)
M: You keep me waitin' till it's gettin' aggravatin', you're a slow poke
F: You wait and worry but I never seem to hurry, I'm a slow poke
M: Time means nothin' to you, I wait (you wait) and then
F: Late again, eight o'clock, nine o'clock, quarter to ten
M: Why should I linger every time you snap your finger, little slow poke?
F: Why can't I hasten when I see the time's a-wastin'? I'm a slow poke, dear
M: Why should I keep tryin' to change you? It's not the thing to do
F: Here's the thing to do-I guess you'll have to learn to be a slow poke, too (slow
poke, too)
F: (Slow poke, slow poke, I'm a silly old slow poke)
ALL: We keep on waitin' till it's gettin' aggravatin', what a slow poke
We wait…
