Hello! I'm Lyrkit!

I tried many ways to memorize English words and found the most effective one for me!

We already have all the words of the songs that we have heard throughout our lives in our memory. We simply did not pay attention to them, but we all already hear them!

I noticed that when you learn a new word from a song that you have already heard before, you already know the translation of this word forever and you will never forget it!

I want to share this method with you. So, the scheme is as follows.

We find songs that we have already heard.

We add all unfamiliar words from them.

We pass mini tests of memory games. done

Now that you know a lot of words, you will very quickly come to know the whole language!

I bet you'll be surprised how effective this method is!)

The Mayor Of Macdougal Street

 

The Mayor Of Macdougal Street

(album: Redemption Road - 2015)


He's been gone for many years now, that's for certain.
Left a vacant spot no man can fill.
They closed the hall and someone drew the curtain.
No one's replaced him yet no one will.

Hanging around the Gaslight back in the day,
Laughing with Dave Van Ronk and hearing him play
It was Green, Green Rocky Road and play it as it lays,
The devil's on the bandstand, it's a helluva tune he plays.
But the devil puts down his banjo and he reaches for the booze
When the Mayor of MacDougal Street's playing the blues.

When Dave Van Ronk sat down, the room got quiet.
He strummed a lazy chord on his Guild guitar.
Sounds so sweet, it made you wanna try it;
It made you dream of swinging on a star.

Hanging around the Gaslight back in the day,
Laughing with Dave Van Ronk and hearing him play
It was Green, Green Rocky Road and play it as it lays,
The devil's on the bandstand, it's a helluva tune he plays.
But the devil puts down his banjo and he reaches for the booze
When the Mayor of MacDougal Street's playing the blues.

Never knew a man to suffer fools less gladly.
Or to view this world of ours with more jaundiced eye.
I miss this friend of mine, I miss him badly
In this pygmy world, a giant came stomping by.

Hanging around the Gaslight back in the day,
Laughing with Dave Van Ronk and hearing him play
It was Green, Green Rocky Road and play it as it lays,
The devil's on the bandstand, it's a helluva tune he plays.
But the devil puts down his banjo and he reaches for the booze
When the Mayor of MacDougal Street's playing the blues.
