Song title:
Carpenters - Goofus
Edit By:
216.73.216.82
I was born on a farm out in iowa A flaming youth I was bound I would fly away I packed my grip and I grabbed my saxophone Cant read notes, but I play anything by ear I made up tunes on the sounds that I used to hear When Id start to play folks to say Sounds a little goofus to me (*) cornfed chords appeal to me I like rustic harmony Hold a note and change the key Hey but thats goofus Not according to the rules That you learn in music schools But the folks just dance like fools They sure go for goofus Got a job but I just couldnt keep it long The leader said that I played all the music wrong So I stepped out with an outfit of my own (**) got together a new kind of orchestra And we all played just the same goofus harmony And I must admit we made a hit Goofus has been lucky for me Repeat (*) Repeat (**)
