Don Chastain - The Dream lyrics

[FLOYD & NELLIE vocalizing] [FLOYD] Is it, is it really you? [NELLIE] Floyd! [FLOYD] Is it, is it really happ'nin'? [NELLIE] Yes! [FLOYD] I declare, I declare, I declare I never saw such beauty as my sister girl [NELLIE] No sir! [FLOYD] Can it, can it really be true? [NELLIE] Yes sir! [FLOYD] Like a, like a miracle! Finally on my feet again [NELLIE] Circlin', circlin', circlin' around You got the luck [FLOYD] We both got the luck [NELLIE] Us too, we got it [FLOYD] Right here! [NELLIE] Circlin' Circlin' [FLOYD] I got ya! Oh [NELLIE & FLOYD] Welcome home! [FLOYD, spoken] I done missed you Nell! Worried after you at the 'sylum [NELLIE, spoken] But you was right aside me Floyd. Just like I been with you (sung) Some people go place to place Some people go underground Some gotta go crazy like, I just journey in And that is where I've been... We all go somewhere And that's how we get along If folks just don't understand it Why that ain't nothin' wrong You and me, we follow a sound That is whistlin' around in the air... Since momma's gone, we heard it callin' And it's kinda restful When you see that you're not alone We're finally together Here in the unknown We are always wanderin' and wantin' to know Why we are what we are We always have the whistlin' question And there ain't an answer but only the askin' Forever [LEE] Ah-oogah, ah-oogah! Time to go, home [FLOYD, spoken] Where we goin'? [LEE, sung] Y'all hop in my shiny, Auto-mobile [FLOYD, spoken] Hot damn, she's a beauty-beau. [LEE, sung] 'Cause you gotta be there for your openin' day [FLOYD, spoken] What openin' day? [NELLIE, sung] We moved the rocks [FLOYD, spoken] We did? [LEE, sung] And made some trails. [LEE & NELLIE] And smoothed the floors And built the stairs! [FLOYD, spoken] Hot damn, you must'a worked like dogs! [LEE & NELLIE, sung] And set up some big signs out here on the road! [NELLIE] There's a ticket office! [LEE] And a curio shop! [ALL] And refreshment stand, open seven days a week! [LEE & FLOYD] At the Great Sand Cave! [ALL vocalizing] [LOCALS] The Great Sand Cave! Floyd Collins! The Great Sand Cave! The greatest caver ever known! The Great Sand Cave! Floyd Collins! The Great Sand Cave! The greatest caver ever known! [vocalizing continues] [FLOYD & NELLIE (echoed by LEE)] No more plowin' a hardscrabble field (No more plowin' a hardscrabble field) I just know it, I knew we was lucky! [FLOYD, with echoes] Pa pa, Listen to this! You gotta hear this! Pa pa! [music cuts out] Noh yoh do-ee-oh. [silence; music gradually comes back in] [LOCALS] The greatest caver ever known. The greatest caver ever known. Buried with his greatest treasure. Buried with his greatest treasure. Buried with his greatest treasure. [LEE] No son. You're still trapped. [FLOYD] No, Pa. What'cha talkin', I'm free now, it's all over This has got to be [vocalizing in background] No, Nellie! What's happenin'? Hold me! Hold on to me! Hold on to me! Nellie! No! Oh! Oh, oh, oh... [NELLIE] Floyd, Let go. Floyd, Let go. You have to let go. You have to let go, Floyd. Ooh ooh oh ohh oh. You have to let go. Oh... [LEE] Let go.
