Corona, Corona
Lyrics by Douglas Clegg

(A la Corrina, Corrina)
Corona, Corona, we’re hunkered down so long
Corona, Corona, we’re hunkered down so long
Lord I can’t wait til’ you done gone
I got a scarf on my face, my sanitizer stings
I got a scarf on my face, and sanitizer stings
But if I get the Corona, it won’t mean a thing
Nurses and doctors, people on the front line
Nurses and doctors, people on the front line
The sick and the dying, Lord I can’t keep from crying
Corona, Corona, you come across the sea
This old Corona come from ‘cross the sea
Babe, don’t get the Corona, or you can’t come home to me
We got the Corona, the whole wide world do
We got the Corona, the whole wide world do
Lord I pray, you’re gonna move on soon
Corona, Corona, hunkered down so long
Corona, Corona, hunkered down so long
Lord I can’t wait til’ you done gone

from A MOMENT A LIFETIME
HOBO HEADING WEST
Words and Music by Douglas Clegg and Mike Lopez

All I have is starlight as I walk this road alone
Covering the rocks and trees, makes it look like snow
There’s no nightbird singing in the silent glen below
Where’s the melody of olden times that leads me home?
This road I’m on has brought me up and just as surely brought me down
There are places I have stumbled and some good things I have found
And there are things that the chains I wear cannot allow
But there are fields that lie fallow that I have yet to plow
If it wasn’t for the bottle I’d have never come this way
And if not for just a little bit of grace I could never have walked away
So tonight I wander looking for what’s next
Hoping that I’ll find a place where I can take some rest
I’ll make my bed of dreams and poems and things that I love best
And I’ll wait for sunrise and a freight train heading west
