Rip Van Winkle
Long time ago when New York was young
And Dutch ruled the land with hearts so strong
There lived a man named Rip Van Winkle
A simple soul loved by one and all
Oh Rip Van Winkle a tale so true
Of a man who slept through years anew
Gone for twenty years he's back and alone
To face the new world on his own
He wandered off to the mountains high
Where magic unfolded before his eyes
Henrick Hudson and his ghostly crew
Playing games that seemed eternal too
Oh Rip Van Winkle a tale so true
Of a man who slept through years anew
Gone for twenty years he's back and alone
To face the new world on his own
Time passed him by like a thief in the night
His village changed in the dark moonlight
He woke up to find a place brand new
And stories to share for me and you
Oh Rip Van Winkle a tale so true
Of a man who slept through years anew
Gone for twenty years he's back and alone
To face the new world on his own
Oh Rip Van Winkle a tale so true
Of a man who slept through years anew
Gone for twenty years he's back and alone
To face the new world on his own
And Dutch ruled the land with hearts so strong
There lived a man named Rip Van Winkle
A simple soul loved by one and all
Oh Rip Van Winkle a tale so true
Of a man who slept through years anew
Gone for twenty years he's back and alone
To face the new world on his own
He wandered off to the mountains high
Where magic unfolded before his eyes
Henrick Hudson and his ghostly crew
Playing games that seemed eternal too
Oh Rip Van Winkle a tale so true
Of a man who slept through years anew
Gone for twenty years he's back and alone
To face the new world on his own
Time passed him by like a thief in the night
His village changed in the dark moonlight
He woke up to find a place brand new
And stories to share for me and you
Oh Rip Van Winkle a tale so true
Of a man who slept through years anew
Gone for twenty years he's back and alone
To face the new world on his own
Oh Rip Van Winkle a tale so true
Of a man who slept through years anew
Gone for twenty years he's back and alone
To face the new world on his own
