Happy Birthday, Miss Christie!

Turn Around
Written by: Harry Belafonte / Alan Greene / Malvina Reynolds
Where are you going
My little one, little one Where are you going My baby, my own
Turn around and you’re two Turn around and you’re four
Turn around and you’re a young girl Going out of the door
Turn around, turn around
Turn around and you’re a young girl Going out of the door


Where are you going
My little one, little one
Little pigtails, petticoats Where have they gone
Turn around and you’re tiny Turn around and you’re grown
Turn around and you’re a young wife With babes of your own
Turn around, turn around
Turn around and you’re a young wife With babes of your own


Where have they gone My little ones, little ones 
Where have they gone My babies, my own 
Turn around and they’re young Turn around and they’re old 
Turn around and they’re gone And we’ve no one to hold
Turn around, turn around
Turn around and they’re gone And we’ve no one to hold
Where are you going
My baby, my own?

Do you remember my singing this to you when you were little?

Where have those 43 years gone?

Are you singing ithis yet to your own girls?

Turn around they're gone ... and we've no one to hold ....

But we have wonderful memories.

Happy birthday, my daughter.

My prayers are for you today.
