Hey Joe [by Billy Roberts]
“Hey, Joe,
Oh where you’re goin’ with that gun in your . . .?
Hey, Joe,
I said, where you goin’ with that gun in your hand?”
“I’m goin’ down to shoot my old lady.
You know I caught her messin’ ’round with another man.
Yeah,
I’m goin’ down to shoot my old lady.
You know I caught her messin’ ’round with another man.
Huh, and that ain’t too cool.”
“Hey, Joe,
I heard you shot your woman down,
You shot her down, now.
Hey, Joe,
I heard you shot your old lady down,
shot her down to the ground.”
“Yes I did, I shot her.
You know I caught her messin’ ’round, messin’ ’round town.
Yes I did, I shot her.
You know I caught my old lady messin’ ’round town,
And I gave her the gun.
I shot her.”
“All right,
Shoot 'er one more time again, baby
Yeah,
Oh, dig”
All right...
“Hey, Joe,
Where you gonna run to now?
Where you gonna run to?
Hey, Joe, I said,
Where you gonna run to now?
Where you . . . where you gonna go?”
“Well, dig,
I’m goin’ way down south,
Way down to Mexico way.
All right!
I’m goin’ way down south,
Way down where I can be free.
Ain’t no one gonna find me.
Ain’t no hangman gonna,
He ain’t gonna put a rope around me
You better believe it right now! I gotta go now.”
“Hey, hey Joe,
You better run on down
Goodbye everybody . . .”
Hey Joe, uhh
Run on down
Stone Free
Every day in the week
I’m in a different city.
But if I stay too long
People try to pull me down.
They talk about me like a dog
Talk about the clothes I wear
But they don’t realize
They’re the ones who’s square.
Hey, that’s why,
you can’t hold me down.
I don’t wanna be down.
I gotta move on, oh
Stone free to do what I please.
Stone free to ride the breeze?
Stone free - I can’t stay.
I gotta, gotta, gotta get away, man
Yeah, all right
Listen to this baby!
A woman here, a woman there
Try to keep me in a plastic cage
But they don’t realize
It’s so easy to break.
Oh, but sometimes I feel, hah
I feel my heart kind of running hot.
That’s when I gotta move
Before I get caught.
Hey, that’s why
Listen to me baby!
You can’t hold me down
I don’t wanna be tied down
I gotta be free, oh
I said “Stone free to do what I please,
Stone free to ride the breeze,
Stone free - I can’t stay
I gottta, gotta, gotta get away, yeah”
Turn me lose baby . . .
Yeah, oh
Yeah, stone free to ride the breeze
Stone free, to do what I please.
Stone free - I can’t stay.
Stone free - I gotta gotta get away.
Stone free - I’m stone free right now.
Stone free - don’t try to hold me back.
Purple Haze
Purple Haze all in my brain
Lately things just don’t seem the same
Actin’ funny, but I don’t know why
’Scuse me while I kiss the sky.
Purple Haze all around
Don’t know if I’m coming up or down
Am I happy or in misery?
Whatever it is, that girl put a spell on me!
Help me, help me . . .
Yeah, Purple Haze all in my eyes
Don’t know if it’s day or night
You got me blowin’, blowin’ my mind
Is it tomorrow or just the end of time?
No, help me, oh . . .
Yeah, Purple Haze . . .
Oh, no, no
Oh help me, tell me, tell me
I can’t go on like this.
You’re making me blow my mind.
Oh, no, no . . .
51st Anniversary
For fifty years they’ve been married
They can’t wait for their fifty first
To roll around, yeah, roll around.
For thirty years they’ve been married
And now they’re old and happy
And they settle down, ha ha
Settle down, yeah.
For twenty years they’ve been married
And they did everything that could be done
You know, they have their fun.
And then you come along and talk about it:
“So you, you say you wanna be married,
I’m gonna change your mind.
Oh, gotta change it.”
That was the good side baby
Here comes the best side.
For ten years they’ve been married
A thousand kids went around homeless
‘Cause their Mom was a louse
Daddy’s down at the whiskey house.
That ain’t all,
For three years they’ve been married
They don’t get along so good,
They’re tired of each other.
You know how that goes,
She got another lover.
Hah, same old thing.
So now you’re seventeen
You run around hangin’ out
And having your fun
Life for you has just begun baby.
And then you come sayin’:
“So you, you say you wanna be married.
Oh, baby, tryin’ to put me on a chain
Ain’t that some shame?
You must be losin’ your weak little mind.
I ain’t ready to get married,
I ain’t ready.
I’m gonna change your mind.
Ooh, look out baby.
Auh, I ain’t ready to get tied down
I ain’t ready, I ain’t ready now
Let me live a little while longer
Let me live, let me live a little while longer
So I can finish talking,
Let me get back to my groooove . . .
The Wind Cries Mary
After all the jacks are in their boxes
And the clowns have all gone to bed
You can hear happiness
Staggering on down street
Footprints dressed in red
And the wind whispers Mary
A broom is drearily sweeping
Up the broken pieces of yesterday’s life
Somewhere a Queen is weeping
Somewhere a King has no wife
And the wind it cries Mary
The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sags downstream
‘Cause the life they’d lived is - is dead
And the wind screams Mary
Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past
And with this crutch, its old age and its wisdom
It whispers “No, this will be the last”
And the wind cries Mary.
Highway Chile
Yeah . . .
His guitar slung across his back.
His dusty boots is his Cadillac.
Ah flamin’ hair just a-blowin’ in the wind.
Ain’t seen a bed in so long it’s a sin.
He left home when he was seventeen.
The rest of the world he went on to see.
And everybody knows, boss,
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
Now you’d probably call him a tramp,
But it goes a little deeper than that
He’s a Highway Chile.
Yeah!
Now some people say
He had a girl back home.
Who messed around and did him pretty wrong.
They tell me it gotta hurt him bad.
Gotta made him feel pretty sad.
I couldn't say what went through his mind
Anyway, he left the world behind
Well everybody knows the same old story,
In love and war you can't lose in glory
Now you probably call him a tramp,
But I know it goes a little deeper than that
He’s a Highway Chile.
Walk on brother!
Yeah!
Woah
Yeah
Walk on down the highway
His old guitar slung across his back
His dusty boots is his Cadillac.
Flamin’ hair just a-blowin’ in the wind.
Ain’t seen a bed in so long it’s a sin.
Now you may call him a tramp,
But I know it goes a little deeper than that
He’s a Highway Chile.
Walk on brother!
Don’t let no one stop you!
Highway Chile!
Yeah, yeah, yeah . . .
Highway Chile!
Rollin’ stone
Go on down the highway!
Rollin' on
Highway Chile!
Yeah, yeah . . .
Highway Chile!
Yeah, roll...

Manic Depression
Manic depression's touching my soul
I know what I want but I just don't know
How to, huh, go about gettin' it
Feeling sweet feeling,
Drops from my fingers, fingers
Manic depression's a catchin' my soul
Woman so weary, the sweet cause in vain
You make love, you break love
It's, a, all the same
When it's, when it's over, baby
Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Manic depression's a frustrating mess
U'ow!
Well, I think I'll go turn myself off,
And, huh, go on down
All the way down
Really ain't no use in me hanging around
In,a, your kinda scene
Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, in a kiss, kiss
Manic depression is a frustrating mess
U'ow!
Yeah
Ow!
Music sweet music, sweet music, sweet music, uh. . .
Music sweet music, sweet music. . .yeah
Ooooooo....
Depression . . .
Red House
Oh, yeah
There’s a Red House over yonder
That’s where my baby stays
Lord, there’s a Red House over yonder
Lord, that’s where my baby stays
I ain’t been home to see my baby,
in ninety nine and one half days.
Wait a minute something’s wrong here
The key won’t unlock this door.
Wait a minute something’s wrong
Lord, have mercy, this key won’t unlock this door,
something’s goin’ on here.
I have a bad bad feeling
that my baby don’t live here no more.
That’s all right, I still got my guitar
Look out now . . .
Yeah . . .
That’s all right, I still got my guitar . . .
Well, I might as well go back over yonder
Way back up on the hill
That’s something to do
Lord, I might as well go back over yonder
Way back yonder 'cross the hill
‘Cause if my baby don’t love me no more,
I know her sister will.
Can You See Me
Can you see me, yeah, begging you on my knees?
Oh yeah, can you see me, baby?
Baby please don’t leave, all right
If you can see me doing that
You can see in the future of a thousand years.
Love or Confusion
Is that the stars in the sky or is it rain falling down?
Will it burn me if I touch the sun, yeah, so big, so round?
Will I be truthful yeah, in, eh, in choosing you as the one for me?
Is this love, baby, or is it, uh, just-a confusion?
Oh, my mind is so messed up,
Goin’ round and round.
Must there be all these colors,
Without names, without sound, baby?
My heart burns with feelin’, but, uh,
Woah, but my mind is cold and reeling,
Is this love, babe, or, heh, or is it confusion?
Oh my head is poundin’, poundin’,
Goin’ round and round, and round and round.
Must there always be these colors,
Without names, without sound?
My heart burns with feelin’.
Oh, but my mind is cold and reeling,
Is this love, babe, or is it, uh, just-a confusion?
Oh, you tell me baby.
Is this, uh, love or confusion?
Oh, we must get together and, uh, find out
Exactly what we're trying to do?
Love or confusion?
I Don't Live Today
Will I live tomorrow?
Well, I just can’t say.
Will I live tomorrow?
Well, I just can’t say.
But I know for sure,
I don’t live today.
No sun coming trough my windows.
Feel like I’m living at the bottom of a grave.
No sun coming through my windows.
Feel like I’m living at the bottom of a grave.
I wish you’d hurry up and execute me
So I can be on my miserable way
I don’t live today.
Maybe tomorrow, I just can’t say.
But I don’t live today.
It’s such a shame to waste your time away like this,
Existing.
Well, I don’t live today.
Maybe tomorrow,
I just can’t tell you baby.
But I don’t live today.
It’s such a shame to spend your time away like this,
Existing.
Yeah, woh . . .
Yeah, oh no . . .
Oh, there ain’t no life nowhere.
Huh, huh, damn man . . .
Get experienced!
Get experienced!
Get experienced!
May This Be Love
Waterfall
Nothing can harm me at all
My worries seem so very small
With my waterfall
I can see
My rainbow calling me
Through the misty breeze
Of my waterfall
Some people say
Day-dreaming's for all the
Lazy minded fools
With nothin' else to do
So let them laugh, laugh at me
So just as long as I have you
To see me through
I have nothing to lose
As long as I have you

Don't ever change your ways
Fall with me for a million days

Third Stone From The Sun
Starfleet to scoutship, please give your position, Over.
I'm in orbit around the third planet from the star called the sun. Over.
You mean its the earth? Over.
Positive. It is known to have some form of intelligent species. Over.
I think we should take a look.
Strange beautiful grass of green,
With your majestic silver seas
Your mysterious mountains I wish to see closer
May I land my kinky machine
Strange beautiful grass of green,
With your majestic silver seas
Your mysterious mountains I wish to see closer
May I land my kinky machine
Although your world wonders me,
With your majestic and superior cackling hen
Your people I do not understand,
So to you I shall put an end
And you'll
Never hear
Surf music again
Secret
Oh, secret
Oh
Shhhh...
Remember
Oh, remember
The mocking bird, my baby bun.
He used to sing for his supper, baby.
Yes, he used to sing for his dinner, baby,
He used to sing so sweet,
But since my baby left me
He ain’t sang a tune all day.
Oh, remember
The bluebirds and the honey bees,
They used to sing for the sunshine.
Yes, they used to sing for the honey, baby,
They used to sing so sweet
But since my baby left me
They ain’t sang a tune all day.
Hey, pretty baby, come on back to me
Make everybody happy as can be, yeah
So baby, if you’ll please come home again
You know I’ll kiss you for my supper, yeah.
You know I’ll kiss you for my dinner, baby, now.
But if you don’t come back
You know I’ll have to starve to death
‘cause I ain’t had a kiss all day now, all day.
Please remember
You've got to remember
You've got to remember our love
Come on back, baby, come on back in my arms,
I'll make ev'rything that better
Come on, baby, hurry up now
Can you hear me calling you back again now?
Come on, baby, stop jiving around,
Hurry home, hurry home...
Are You Experienced
If you can just get your mind together
Then come on across to me
We'll hold hands and then we'll watch the sunrise
From the bottom of the sea
But first, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Well, I have...
I know, I know you probably scream and cry
That your little world won't let you go
But who in your measly little world
Are you trying to prove that
You're made out of gold and, uh, can't be sold
So, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Well, I have...
Ah, let me prove you...yeah
Trumpets and violins I can hear in the distance
I think they're calling our names
Maybe now you can't hear them, but you will
If you, huhu, just take hold of my hand
Oh, but are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Not necessarily stoned, but beautiful...

Bold As Love
|
Bold As Love
Anger! He smiles,
Towering in shiny metallic purple armor
Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him
Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground
Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted,
They quietly understand
Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready,
But wonder why the fight is on
But they're all bold as love,
Yes, they're all bold as love
Yeah, they're all bold as love
Just ask the Axis
My red's so confident that he flashes trophies of war
And ribbons of euphoria
Orange is young, full of daring,
But very unsteady for the first go 'round
My yellow in this case is not so mellow
In fact I'm trying to say, it's frightened like me
And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from, uh,
Giving my life to a rainbow like you
But, I'm uh , yeah, I'm bold as love
Yeah, yea-ah
Well I'm bold, bold as love (hear me talking, girl)
I'm bold as love
Just ask the Axis (he knows everything)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Little Miss Lover
Little Miss Lover, where have you been in this world for so long?
Well, I love a lover that feels like you, would you like to tag along?
Well, I really don't need any help little girl,
But I believe you could help me out anyway
Would you believe, babe, I've been looking for a Sue
That feels like you
For some time
Excuse me while I see if the gypsy in me is right
If you don't mind
Well, he signals me O.K.
So I think it's safe to say,
I'm gonna make a play
Hey, hey, little Miss Lover,
There's so much you and me can discover
And I think we should start, start right now
Hey little Miss Lover
One Rainy Wish
Golden rose, the color of the dream I had
Not too long ago
A misty blue and the lilac too
A never to grow old.
A there you were under the tree of song
Sleeping so peacefully
In your hand a flower played
A waiting there for me.
I have never
Laid eyes on you
Not like a before
This timeless day
A but you walked and ya ha
Once smiled my name
And you stole
My heart away
A stole my heart away little girl, yeah
All right !
Golden rose, the color of the dream I had
Not too long ago
Misty blue and lilac too
A never to grow old.
Golden rose, the color of the dream I had
Misty blue and lilac too
Golden rose, the color of the dream I had
Misty blue and lilac too
Gold and rose, gold are rose, gold and rose.
It's only a dream
I'd love to tell somebody about this dream
The sky was filled with a thousand stars
While the sun kissed the mountains blue
And eleven moons played across rainbows
Above me and you.
Gold and rose the color of the velvet walls surround us.
She's So Fine [by Noel Redding]
She walks with a bell-clock round her neck,
So the hippies think she's in with time
Her hair glistens like robins on a deck
Branches attack me from her neck
She's so fine
She's so very, very fine
When I veer I get so near
But so far far far away
Listen to me today.
We united just beside a leaf
The ground was hard underneath, her, her
She's so fine.
Castles Made Of Sand
Down the street you can hear her scream "you're a disgrace"
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbors start to gossip and drool
He cries "Oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?"
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green
And so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually
A little Indian brave before he was ten,
Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends
And he built up a dream that when he grew up
He would be a fearless warrior Indian chief
Many moons past and more the dream grew strong until
Tomorrow he would sing his first war song and fight his first battle
But something went wrong, surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night
And so castles made of sand melts into the sea, eventually
There was a young girl, whose heart was a frown
'Cause she was crippled for life,
and she couldn't speak a sound
And she wished and prayed she could stop living,
So she decided to die
She drew her wheelchair to the edge of the shore
And to her legs she smiled "you won't hurt me no more"
But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say
"look a golden winged ship is passing my way"
And it really didn't have to stop, it just kept on going...
And so castles made of sand slips into the sea, eventually

Little Wing
Well she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind that's running round
Butterflies and zebras and moonbeams
And fairly tales,
That's all she ever thinks about...
Riding the wind
When I'm sad she comes to me
With a thousand smiles she gives to me free
It's all right, she says,
It's all right,
Take anything you want from me...
Anything.
Fly on, little wing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, little wing

But I really hope to see you tomorrow.

The feelin' there always hangs up my day
Oh Cleopatra, she's driving me insane
She's tryin' to put my body in her brain
So uh, just uh, kiss me goodbye, just to ease the pain.
Sing it, hah, sing it, hah !

Wait Until Tomorrow

Oh, what a drag.
Oh, Dolly Mae, how can you hang me up this way ?
Oh, on the phone you said you wanted to run off with me today
Now I'm standing here like some turned down serenading fool
Hearing strange words stutter from the mixed mind of you
And you keep tellin' me that ah...
I think we better wait till tomorrow
What are you talkin' 'bout ?
(I think we better wait till tomorrow)
No, can't wait that long
(I think we better wait till tomorrow)
Oh, no
Got to make sure it's right, until tomorrow, goodnight, oh.
Let's see if I can talk to this girl a little bit here...
Ow ! Dolly Mae, girl, you must be insane
So unsure of yourself leaning from your unsure window pane
Do I see a silhouette of somebody pointing something from a tree ?
Click bang, what a hang, your daddy just shot poor me
And I hear you say, as I fade away...
We don't have to wait till tomorrow
Hey !
We don't have to wait till tomorrow
What you say ?
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
It must have been right, so forever, goodnight, listen at 'cha.
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Ah ! Do I have to wait ? Don't have to wait
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
It's a drag on my part
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow) Don't have to wait, uh, hmm ! Ah, no !
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Don't have to wait, don't have to wait, yeah !

Oh, oh

Don't have to wait
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Goodbye, bye bye !
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Oh, what a mix up
Oh, you gotta be crazy, hey, ow!
Don't have to wait till tomorrow.

You say you just want me ta take you for a drive
You're just like Crosstown traffic
So hard to get through to you
Crosstown traffic
I don't need to run over you
Crosstown traffic
What you do is slow me down
And I'm tryin' to get on the other side of town
I'm not the only soul who's accused of hit-and-run
Tire tracks all across your back, I can,

Well, I'm a Voodoo Chile
Lord, I'm a Voodoo Chile
Yeah
Well, the night I was born
Lord, I swear the moon turned a fire red
The night I was born
I swear the moon turned a fire red
Well, my poor mother cried out "Lord, the Gypsy was right"
And I see'd her fell down right there
(How was that)
Well, mountain lions found me there waiting, and
and set me on a eagle's back
(Oh Lord, a mountain lion)
Well, mountain lions found me there
and set me on a eagle's wing (Yeah)
(It's an eagle's wing, baby. What'd I say)
Well, uh, he took me past the outskirts of infinity (Play on)

Little Miss Strange [by Noel Redding]
No one knows where she comes from
Maybe she's a devil in disguise
I can't tell by looking in her eyes
Little Miss Strange
Little Miss Strange
Little Miss Strange came into my parlor
I don't know just what to ask her
I don't remember what we did after
Little Miss Strange
Little Miss Strange
When Miss Strange came out after darkness
Walked across my head, I stood beneath the light
I told you about the dream I had the other night
Little Miss Strange
Little Miss Strange
Long Hot Summer Night
(Umm-hmm-hmm-hmm)
It sure was a long, long, long hot summer night
as far as my eyes could see (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
And my heart was way down in a cold, cold winter storm
Well, my darlin', where can you be (Ahhh-ahhh)
Where can you be, baby. Where can you be
There were three sugar walls and, uh,
two candy-cane windows (woop woop woop woop oooh)
But Celia's mood melted all those in sight (All those in sight)
Everybody's on fire, but I'm, uh, snowing in a cold blizzard
Where are you on this a hot-cold summer
Where are you on this a hot-cold summer
Where are you on this a hot-cold summer night (Night, night)
Around about this time the telephone blew it's horn across the room
Scared little Annie clean
out of her mind (Out of her mind) and in trouble, yeah
Roman The Candle, he peaks out of his peak-a-boo hide-and-seek
and grabbed little Annie from the ceiling
just in time (He grabbed Annie just in time)
And the telephone keeps on screamin'
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
"Hello" said my shaky voice, "Well, how you doin'?" (Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
I start to stutter
"Uh, uh, can't you tell I'm doin' fine" (Can't you tell I'm doin' fine)
It was my baby talkin', she's way down across the border (Ahh ahh)
She says "I'm gonna hurry to ya. I've been a fool,
and I'm tired of cryin'" (Ahh ahh, ahh ahh)
Sometimes I (Ahhhh)
Yeah, was a long (long), long (long) hot summer night (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
as far as my eyes could see (as far as my eyes could see)
But I can feel the heat comin' on as my baby's gettin' closer (Ahh ahh)
I'm so glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me
(Glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me)
I say so glad that my baby's (Hey) comin' to rescue me
(Glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me)
So glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me
(Glad that my baby's comin to rescue)
(Rescue me, rescue, rescue me, rescue, rescue, rescue)
What'd I say (rescue me, rescue me, rescue, rescue me, rescue me, rescue me)
Come On (Let the Good Times Roll) [by Earl King]
People talkin' but they just don't know
What's in my heart ain't why I love you so
I love you, baby, like a miner love gold
Come on, sugar, let the good times ro-oo-oll
Hey
So many people live in make believe
They'll keep a lot of dirt up their sleeve
But my love, baby, isn't the kind that fold
Come on, baby, let the good times ro-oo-oll
Hey
Hey baby, let the good times roll
Oh, let them, baby
Come on and let daddy thrill your soul
Hey-hey
Baby
Let the good time roll
Hey
Our love is nice if it was understood
It's even nicer when you're feelin' good
You got me flippin' like a flag on a pole
Come on, sugar, let the good times ro-oll
Hey
Let the good times roll
Hey
Get on me, baby
and show how the good times roll
Oh mama, let me thrill your soul
Hey, let the good times roll
Gypsy Eyes
Well I realize that I am hypnotized
I love you Gypsy Eyes
I love you Gypsy Eyes
Well, all right
Ah!
Gypsy
Way up in my tree I'm sitting by my fire
wondering where in this world might you be
And knowin' all the time you're still rovin' the country side
Do you still think about me?
Oh my
Gypsy
Well I walk right on up to your rebel road-side
The one that rambles on for a million miles
Yes, I walk down this road searchin' for your love an' my soul too
When I find ya, I ain't gonna let go
I remember the first time I saw you
the tears in your eyes looked like they was tryin' to say
"Oh, little boy, you know I could love you
but first I must make my getaway
Two strange men fightin' to the death over me today
I'll try to meet ya by the old highway"
Hey
Well, I realize that I've been hypnotized
I love you Gypsy Eyes
I love you Gypsy Eyes
I love you Gypsy Eyes
I love you Gypsy Eyes
All right
I've been searchin' so long, my feet they painfully lose the battle
Down against the road my weary knees take their place
Off to the side I fall, but I hear her sweet call
My Gypsy Eyes has found me and I've been saved
Oh, I've been saved
That's why I love you
Said I love you
Hey
Love you
Lord, I love you
Burning of the Midnight Lamp
The morning is dead
and the day is too
There's nothing left here to greet me
but the velvet moon
All my loneliness
I have felt today
It's a little more than enough
to make a man throw himself away
I continue
to burn the midnight lamp
alone
Now, the smiling portrait of you
is still hangin' on my frowning wall
But it really doesn't, really doesn't bother me
too much at all
It's just the, uh, ever falling dust
that makes it so hard for me to see
that forgotten ear-ring laying on the floor
facing coldly toward the door
And I continue
to burn the midnight lamp
whoa, alone
Burn
Yeah, yeah
Lonely, lonely, lonely
Loneliness is such a
drag
So here I sit to face
that same old fireplace
Gettin' ready for the same old explosion
goin' through my mind
And soon enough, time will tell
about the circus an' the wishing well
And someone who will buy and sell for me
Someone who will toll my bell
And I continue
to burn the same old lamp
alone
Yeah, right now
Can you hear me callin' you
So lonely
Gotta blow my mind
Yeah
Yeah
Lonely, lonely
Blow my mind
Rainy Day, Dream Away
(De de de de)
(Are we rolling yet, are we rollin yet?)
Cough, cough, sniff, sniff
(Here we can see your ass landing, twist you up inside)
Hey man, take a look out the window an' see what's happening
Hey man, it's rainin'
It's rainin' outside, man
Oh, don't worry about that, brother
Everything's gonna be everything
We'll get into something real nice, you know
Why don't ya sit back and groove on a rainy day
Sniff, yeah
SNIFF
Yeah, I see what you mean, brother
Maybe I can groove
Rainy day
Dream away
Let the sun take a holiday
Flowers bathe, and, uh,
see the children play
Lay back and groove on a rainy day
Well I can see a bunch of wet preachers,
look at 'em on the run
The carnival traffic noise, it sinks
into the splashy hum
Even the ducks can groove
rain burdened in a park-side pool
And I'm leanin' out my window sill
diggin' everything
And, uh, you too
Rainy day
Rain all day
Ain't no use in gettin' up tight
Just let it groove its own way
Let it drain
your worries away
Lay back and groove on a rainy day
Lay back and dream on a rainy day
[fade out. Start of 1983...]
1983...(A Merman I Should Turn To Be)
Hurray, I awake from yesterday
Alive, but the war is here to stay
So my love, Catherina, and me
desire to take our last walk thru the noise to the sea
Not to die, but to be reborn
Away from the land so battered and torn
Forever
Forever
Oh say, can you see it's really such a mess
Every inch of Earth is a fighting nest
Giant pencil and lipstick-tube shaped things
continue to rain and cause screamin' pain
And the arctic stains from silver blue to bloody red
as our feet find the sand and the sea
is straight ahead
Straight up ahead
Well it's too bad
that our friends
can't be with us today
Well, it's too bad
The machine
that we built
would never save us, that's what they say
That's why they ain't comin' with us today
And they also said "It's impossible
for a man to live and breathe underwater
forever", was a main complaint (too bad)
Yeah. And they also threw this in my face, they said
"Anyway,
you know good and well
it would beyond the will of God
and the grace of the King"
Grace of the King
Yeah
Ooo
So my darling and I make love in the sand
to salute the last moment ever on dry land
Our machine has done its work, played its part well,
without a scratch on our body, and we bid it farewell
Starfish and giant foams greet us with a smile (Why)
Before our heads go under we take our last look at the killing noise
of the out of style
The out of style, out of style, oh yeah
Ooo
Moon, Turn the Tides...gently gently away
So down and down and down and down
and down and down we go
Hurry, my darling, we mustn't be late
for the show
Neptune champion games to an aqua world is so very dear
"Right this way" smiles a mermaid,
I can hear Atlantis full of cheer
Atlantis full of cheer
I can hear Atlantis full of cheer
Oh yeah
Still Raining, Still Dreaming
Rainy day, rain all day
Ain't no use in gettin' uptight,
just let it groove its own way
Let it drain your worries away, yeah
Lay back and groove on a rainy day
Hey
Lay back and dream on a rainy day
Lay back and groove on a rainy day
Lay back and groove. Oh yeah
Lay back and groove on a rainy day
Lay back and groove on a rainy day
Lay back and dream on a rainy day
Lay back and groove on a rainy day
Lay back and dream on a rainy day
Lay back an', lay back, lay back
Lay back and groove
(Lay back)
(Yeah)
(Oh yes)
Ah ah-ah-ah
(Lay back and groove on a rainy day)
Lay back and groove on a rainy day
Lay back and dream on a rainy day
Lay back and dream on a rainy day
(Lay back and groove on a rainy day)
Still rainin', still rainin', yeah
(Top that)
House Burning Down
Yeah
Said hey
Hey, said that
Hey
Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red
Somebody's house is burnin'
down, down
down, down,
Down, down, yeah
Well, I asked my friend
"Where is that black smoke comin' from"?
He just coughed and changed the subject,
and said "Uh, well, I think it might snow some"
So I left him sippin' his tea,
and I jumped in my chariot
and rode off to see
just why and who could it be this time
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Sisters and brothers, daddies, mothers standin' around cryin'
When I reached the scene, the flames were making a ghostly whine
So I stood on my horse's back, and I screamed without a whack
"I say, oh baby, why did you burn your brother's house down?"
Hey
Hey
Hey. Go get me something
Hey
Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red, Lord
Somebody's house is burning
down, down
down, down
Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red, Lord
Somebody's house is burning
down, down
down, down, down
Well, someone stepped from the crowd,
he was nineteen miles high
He shout "We're tired and disgusted
so we paint red through the sky"
I say the truth is straight ahead,
so don't burn your self instead
Try to learn instead of burn,
hear what I say
(Yeah, yeah)
So I finally rode away,
but I'll never forget that day
'Cause when I reached the valley,
I looked way down 'cross the way
A giant boat from space
landed with eerie grace
and came and take all the dead away
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey. What'd I say
Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red, Lord
Somebody's house is burning (Umm, it's still burning)
down, down
down, down
Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red, Lord
Somebody's house is burning
down, down (Are you up)
down, down
Look at the sky turn, look at the sky turn hell-fire red
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Aww baby, lose it
All Along the Watchtower [by Bob Dylan]
There must be some kind of way out of here
said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief
Businessmen, they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None will level on the line
Nobody of it is worth
Hey, hey
No reason to get excited
the thief he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
who feel that life is but a joke. But, uh
But you and I, we've been through that (and then)
and this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now,
the hour's getting late
Hey
Hey
All along the watchtower
princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Bare-foot servants too. But, uh
Outside in the cold distance
a wild cat did growl
Two riders were approachin'
and the wind begin to howl
Hey
(Oh)
(All along the watchtower)
(Hear you sing around the watch)
Gotta beware (gotta beware, I will)
(Yeah)
(Ooh, baby)
All along the watchtower
Voodoo Child (Slight Return)
Well, I stand up next to a mountain
and I chop it down with the edge of my hand
Yeah
Well, I stand up next to a mountain
I chop it down with the edge of my hand
Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island
Might even raise a little sand
Yeah
'Cause I'm a voodoo child
Lord knows, I'm a voodoo child, baby
I want to say one more last thing
I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time
I'll give it right back to ya one of these days. Hahaha
I said I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time
I'll give it right back one of these days (Oh yeah)
If I don't meet you no more on this world, then, uh,
I'll meet ya on the next one
And don't be late
Don't be late
'Cause I'm a voodoo child, voodoo child
Lord knows, I'm a voodoo child
Hey, hey, hey
I'm a voodoo child, baby
I don't take no for an answer
Question, no
(Yeah)
