Born At the Right Time Lyrics


Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
The whole world whispering
You're born at the right timeDown among the reeds and rushes
A baby boy was found
His eyes as clear as centuries
His silky hair was brownAnd never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
The whole world whispering
You're born at the right time

Whao whao whao
Ohh I can goYea, me and my buddies we are traveling people, yea
We like to go down to restaurant row
Spend those euro dollars
All the way from Washington to TokyoBut I see them in the airport lounge
Upon their mother's breast
And they follow me with open eyes
Their uninvited guestAnd never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time
You're born at the right time, ooh
Born at the right timeToo many people on the bus from the airport
Too many holes in the crust of the earth
The planet groans
Every time it registers another birthBut down among the reeds and rushes
A baby girl was found
Her eyes as clear as centuries
Her silky hair was brownNever been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
You're born at the right time, yeah
You're born at the right time, you're
You're born at the right time, woo
You're born at the right timeBorn at the instant
The church bells chime
The whole world whispering
You born at the right time

Paul Frederic Simon (born October 13, 1941 in Newark, New Jersey) is an American singer, songwriter and guitarist. He first gained world-wide recognition as the writing talent behind the popular American folk-rock duo Simon & Garfunkel formed with fellow musician Art Garfunkel. When Simon & Garfunkel split in 1970, Simon quickly began his solo career with the release of the self-titled album, Paul Simon. This was followed by There Goes Rhymin' Simon and Still Crazy After All These Years, both of which featured chart-topping hits such as Loves Me Like A Rock and Kodachrome. In 1986 Simon released the immensely popular Graceland, which featured the groundbreaking use of African rhythms and performers Ladysmith Black Mambazo. In 1990, he followed up Graceland with the successor album The Rhythm of the Saints which featured Brazilian and Cajun musical themes. These albums helped to popularize world music as a genre.

He co-wrote the unsuccessful, but critically-acclaimed musical The Capeman with Nobel-winning poet Derek Walcott in 1997. His most recent album, Surprise, was produced by Brian Eno.

Paul Simon still tours occasionally, both as a solo artist and with his old musical partner Art Garfunkel. He is married to Edie Brickell.

In 1994 Paul Simon held 14 sold out concerts in Nantes (France) with International professional fusion players: Nino Manore (Italy), Francis Mc Gowan (UK), Gissele Masarde (France), Nikša Sviličić (Croatia), and others.
