    Ever hear Janis' version of this one, Mcbill - it brings tears to
    your eyes, and the guitar arrangements are something special too.

385.5Second verse, from memory45944::CARLINDick Carlin IOSGFri May 12 1989 13:3412
    Something like:
    
    One of these mornings, you're gonna rise up singing
    Spread your wings, and take to the sky
    But until that morning, there ain't nothing can harm you
    With your daddy and mammy standing by
    
    Not much use, unless your course was delayed a month.
    
    But great stuff anyway
