Carnuntum
Carnuntum (Καρνους in Ptolemy) was a Roman army camp on the Danube in the Noricum province and after the 1st century the capital of the Pannonia Superior province, with 50,000 people. Its remains are situated in Lower Austria halfway between Vienna and Bratislava on the "Archaeological Park Carnuntum", extending over the area of 10 km² near today's villages Petronell-Carnuntum and Bad Deutsch-Altenburg.
History
Carnuntum originated as a Roman army camp. Its name is nearly always found with "K" on monuments and is derived from Celtic karn- ("cairn"). Its name first occurs in history during the reign of Augustus (6 AD), when Tiberius made it his base of operations in the campaigns against Maroboduus (Marbod). Significant Romanization occurred when the town was selected as the garrison of the Legio XV Apollinaris. A few years later, it became the centre of the Roman fortifications along the Danube from Vindobona (now Vienna) to Brigetio (Ó-Szőny). Under Trajan or Hadrian, Carnuntum became the permanent quarters of Legio XIV Gemina and the capital of Pannonia Superior.

Cryin Time
by: George Jones(Both)
Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that faraway look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling,
Darlingm that it won't be long before it's crying time.
(George)
Now they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder
And the tears are only rain to make love grow
Well, my love for you could never grow no stronger,
Baby, if I live to be a hundred years old.
(Both)
Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that faraway look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling,
Darlingm that it won't be long before it's crying time.
(Tammy)
Now you say you've found someone you love better
That's the way it's happened every time before
And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow
Crying time will start when you walk out the door.
(Both)
Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that faraway look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling,
Darlingm that it won't be long before it's crying time.
