Mamas And The Papas, The - Too Late Lyrics
When it's too late for talking,
But it's too early to be walking
And your world slowly stops its spin...
When the mind that once was open shuts
And no one can get in...
And we know that you're faking,
And there's no give or taking...
And no one's really sure who's been had.
When the love and trust have turned to dust,
And that was all you had...
Get on your pony and ride;
Get on your pony and ride.
No one to catch up to you,
If you try.
Get on your pony and ride.
No one to catch up to you,
If you try.
No one to catch up to you,
If you try...cause I've tried.
Cause when the mind that once was open shuts
And you knock on the door, nobody answers anymore...
When the love and trust has turned to dust...
When the mind that once was open shuts...
When you knock on the door, nobody answers anymore...
When the love and trust has turned to dust...

Mamas And The Papas, The Too Late Comments
I love this whole album! I was obsessed with it when I was 17 (in the late 80s) unable to get over the fact I had missed the 1960s. I was only interested in interviewing for colleges on the West Coast in places where I thought I would be able to somehow recreate the 1960s in my mind or in the groups of people I found. I was in Portland interviewing at Reed College and staying at kind of rundown youth hostel in a shady neighborhood and I found this used record store. Suddenly this album jumped out at me with its cool mix and match heads and shoulders that you could fold over and put the top half of the Mama's and Papa's heads on the wrong bottom halves (hard to describe.) I bought it, along with obscure albums by Arlo Guthrie and Country Joe McDonald. When I got back to Delaware I played this album over and over and pretty much memorized it.
When it's too late for talking,
But it's too early to be walking
And your world slowly stops its spin...
When the mind that once was open shuts
And no one can get in...
And we know that you're faking,
And there's no give or taking...
And no one's really sure who's been had.
When the love and trust have turned to dust,
And that was all you had...
Get on your pony and ride;
Get on your pony and ride.
No one to catch up to you,
If you try.
Get on your pony and ride;
Get on your pony and ride.
No one to catch up to you,
If you try.
No one to catch up to you,
If you try...cause I've tried.
Cause when the mind that once was open shuts
And you knock on the door, nobody answers anymore...
When the love and trust has turned to dust...
When the mind that once was open shuts...
When you knock on the door, nobody answers anymore...
When the love and trust has turned to dust...
