Don't you think it may be "cold hole" on the missing line of "River Of Grog"?

Hey Shangri La, Wonderful that you put up the lyrics..I've been going nuts over a line in Follow the Ribbon that you provided.

But try this for a couple of lines...what do some of you others  think?

"Today's been a while feeling"
 "root me a patch of *earth"* (or is it 'rootin')
" by the cold lagoon"

I'm also not sure he's saying 'where a million stars are *fools*...but...???

Great job and thanks!

Shangri la - I'd like to add my thanks too for the lyrics to the songs!   :)

May I suggest for the first line of Follow The Ribbon:

"The day's been a while fading"

I agree with Jennja on "Root me a patch of earth"  and "by the cold lagoon"

Thanks so much for all these lyrics that you all comtributed here.  For a non-English speaker, I'd love to read and learn the lyrics while listening each time here and there.
