Nick Drake

Nicholas Rodney "Nick" Drake (19 June 1948 – 25 November 1974) was an English singer-songwriter and musician, known for his gentle guitar-based songs. He failed to find a wide audience during his lifetime but his work has gradually achieved wider notice and recognition. Drake signed to Island Records when he was 20 years old and a student at the University of Cambridge, and released his debut album, Five Leaves Left, in 1969. By 1972, he had recorded two more albums—Bryter Layter and Pink Moon. Neither sold more than 5,000 copies on initial release. Drake's reluctance to perform live, or be interviewed, contributed to his lack of commercial success. more »

Believe me, pretty mama
Better not treat me right
Just have to forget you
After tomorrow night

Believe me, pretty mama
Better take your picture too
Don't want to remember
What a good looking girl can do

Don't send me no letter
Don't write me no postcard
Thinking about you, baby
Makes it twice as hard

Believe me, pretty mama
Better not treat me right
Just have to forget you
After tomorrow night

Well I'm sitting here
On the sudden(? )
Watching the trees go by
My baby, at the end of the depot(? )
Lay me down and cry

Believe me, pretty mama
Better not treat me right
Just have to forget you
After tomorrow night
