Текстове на песни: Crosby Stills Nash. How Have You Been.

How Have You Been
by John Sebastian
Performed by Crosby, Stills, & Nash
on "Nintendo: White Knuckle Scorin' "
1991

How have you been, my darling children
While I have been away in the west
Though you are strangers I feel like I know you
By the way that you treat me and offer to feed me
And eagerly ask if IA'll stay for a rest

Now sit yourselves down in a pile here before me
I wish I had presents for each of your smiles
But I have been travelling without much to carry
Just a broken guitar case with paint on the sides
A bag and a few signs to help me get rides

But here are some beads from the throat of a Princess
Who lived in the years around 200 BC
Divide them and wear them, but make sure to share them
'Cause I want you to have them in hopes that you'll be
As lovely as the lady who gave them to me...

And here is a strange European guitar string

I found on the floor of a club in Marseilles
ItA's fat for the third string and skinny for the fourth string
But I kept it in hopes that IA'd use it some day
ItA's funny how people just keep things that way

And here is a turtle from the Long Island Expressway
He says that his home has been covered with tar
So I gave him a ride on the back of my suitcase
And he says that heA'd like to stay here in your yard
At long last his life wonA't be quite so hard

And how have you been, my darling children
While I have been away in the west
Though you are strangers I feel like I know you
By the way that you treat me and offer to feed me
And eagerly ask if IA'll stay for a rest

And how have you been, my darling children
