Lyrics Randy Newman

Randy Newman

Texas Girl at the Funeral of Her Father

Here I am lost in the wind

'Round in circles sailing

Like a ship that never comes in

Standing by myself

Sing a sad song for a good man

Sing a sad song for me

Sing a sad song for the sailor

A thousand miles from the sea

Here I am along on the plain

Sun's going down

It's starting to rain

Papa, we'll go sailing
