Kalyope Driver - Lyrics - Dando Shaft

Dando Shaft is the name of a short-lived psych progressive folk and folk jazz band that was primarily active in the early 1970s. The band has attracted a measure of attention from recent compilation releases and Dando Shaft is today known primarily as one of the major influences on the progressive stream of the 1960s folk revival.

Kalyope driver wait for me Time is short but I have to see If there's anyone else that I can bring For I've a song to sing them Kalyope driver wait a while There's still hope for those who smile And think a while but haven't found The love that's all around them Don't forget that some are growing Sowing seeds of love among them Kalyope driver bide your time The sun will shine among them Shine among them Shine among them Kalyope driver blow your horn Linger long for those who scorn For ignorance is a poor excuse And you would not refuse them Kalyope driver guard the train Ignorance will strike again As darkness tries to hide the rows Of rose that bloom among them Take your time the word is spreading Heading down towards the answer Kalyope driver blow your horn If only for to warn them For to warn them For to warn them Kalyope driver dance your dance Those of us who have the chance Will carry the word and sing the song So don't go on without them Kalyope driver there's no need To leave us having sowed the seed With carriages wanting to be filled Find the minds to fill them Save the ears that hear your preaching And the teaching of the dancer Kalyope driver wait for me For I can see the answer See the answer See the answer See the answer See the answer
