if you go away on this summer day then you might as well take the sun away
all the birds that flew in the summer skies when our love was new and our hearts were high
when the day was young and the nights were long and the moon stood still to the nightbird song
if you go away if you go away if you go away
but if you stay i'll make you a day like no day has been or will be again
we'll sail on this summer day
the sun will glide on the rain we'll talk to the trees and worship the wind
then if you go i'll understand leave me just enough love to fill my head
if you go away if you go away if you go away
if you go away
if you go away

if you go away as i know you will you must tell the world to stop turning
till you return again if you ever do for what good is life without loving you
can i tell you now as you turn to go i'll be dying slowly till the next hello
if you go away
if you go away if you go away if you go away
if you go away as i know you must there'll be nothing left in this world to trust
just an empty room full of empty space like the empty look i see on your face
I'd have been the shadow of your shadow
If I thought it might have kept me by your side
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
But if you stay, I'll make you a night
Like no night has been, nor will be again
I'll sail on your smile, I'll glide on your touch
I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much
Then if you go, though I will cry
All the good is gone from the word goodbye
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
Please don't go away
Hey, thank y'all.
I'd like to introduce this gang up here.
Denny's the youngest one in the group, just a growing boy.
He's from beautiful downtown Burbank, California.
My good friend and piano player, Mr. Dennis McCarthy.
He's a big one.
Now here on bass,
is the Texican in the group.
He's from beautiful downtown Brownwood.
He's got a supporter.
From Brownwood?
No, not from Brownwood.
It's only open on weekends.
It's a small place.
In fact, when Bill went home the last time,
he said he went down to the library
and they'd already checked out the book.
This is his real name, too.
Bill's...
Oh, tell him your name first.
My good friend and bass player, Mr. Billy Graham.
That's his name.
Would you like to play?
Let's do it.
Your mom really hung that name on you, huh?
She did.
He comes up with some of the weirdest drinks.
He whooped up some about three months ago.
He had one with milk of magnesia and vodka.
It took him three months to get over that one, too.
He's carried around some 1x10s of himself.
You've lost a little weight, haven't you?
Milk of magnesia and vodka.
He called that a Phillips screwdriver.
Bill said his dad used to whoop it up around Christmas time down home
He'd say, boy, you talk about dashing through the snow
Now here on drums, I don't know what we can say about him
He's 29 years old and he's got nine children
What's that?
His wife bought him a television for Christmas
My good friend and drummer, Mr. Bob Feltz
The rest of this gang up here is the 1969 Garden State Arts Center Orchestra
Let's give a great big round of applause for a real fantastic orchestra
There it is

something else.
And I'd like to say
a special thanks
to a guy that came
all the way out
from Los Angeles.
He came out today
with his lovely wife,
Maxine.
Every Glen Campbell
record you hear,
he's always playing
rhythm guitar on it
or 12-string or something.
My good friend
for many years,
Mr. Al Casey.
Al?
This is a 12-string.
It's embarrassing
to walk out
with a flat G-string,
you know?
Now on this one
you can have two of them.
This is an old
Chinese custom
called tuning.
That's close enough
for jazz, ain't it?
Here's to y'all.
