Hey Hey What Can I Do

Wanna tell you 'bout the girl I love
My she looks so fine
She's the only one that I been dreamin' of
Maybe someday she will be all mine
I wanna tell her that I love her so
I thrill with her every touch
I need to tell her she's the only one I really love

I got a woman, wanna ball all day
I got a woman, she won't be true, no
I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
I said I got a little woman and she won't be true

Sunday morning when we go down to church
See the menfolk standin' in line
I said they come to pray to the Lord
With my little girl, looks so fine
In the evening when the sun is sinkin' low
Everybody's with the one they love
I walk the town
Keep a-searchin' all around:
Lookin' for my street corner girl

I got a woman, wanna ball all day
I got a woman, she won't be true, no no
I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
I said I got a little woman and she won't be true

In the bars, with the men who play guitars
Singin', drinkin' and rememberin' the times
My little lover does a midnight shift
She followed around all the time
I guess there's just one thing a-left for me to do
Gonna pack my bags and move on my way
Cause I got a worried mind
Sharin' what I thought was mine
Gonna leave her where the guitars play

I got a woman, she won't be true, no no
I got a woman, wanna ball all day
I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
I got a little woman and she won't be true

(hey hey what can I do)

I said she won't be true

(Hey Hey, What can I say?)

Hey hey, what can I do
I got a woman, she won't be true
Lo-o-ord, hear what I say
I got a woman, wanna ball all day

Baby Come On Home

There was a time
I used to call you on my very own
We were so happy woman
Talkin' for hours and hours on the telephone

Then one day
I set you up to walk right outta my life
Leavin' me all by myself
All alone, to cry every night

(Babe...) oooh, I want you to come back home yeah (come on home)
(oooh yeah)
Sweet little girl
(ooh yeah, been gone so long)
been away so long

Now listen to me

I said I made up my mind
Woman when you left me there, oh
I was gonna find another sweet lover
Who's gonna feel all of my... cares

So I met a sweet little girl
Just about as nice as she could be, oh
I fell in love with that woman
But she turned around, and did the same thing again to me, woohoo...

(Babe...) Baby, please come home (come on home) hoome yeah...
I know, (ya been gone too long) been away so long

'Cause I keep thinkin about all the good times
Keep thinkin' about it
I wanna make you mine

Good Times Bad Times

In the days of my youth
I was told what it means to be a man,
Now I've reached the age
I've tried to do all those things the best I can.
No matter how I try,
I find my way into the same old jam.

*Good Times, Bad Times,
You know I had my share;
When my woman left home
For a brown eyed man,
Well, I still don't seem to care.

Sixteen: I fell in love
With a girl as sweet as could be,
Only took a couple of days
Till she was rid of me.
She swore that she would be all mine
And love me till the end,
But when I whispered in her ear
I lost another friend, oooh.

* Chorus

I know what it means to be alone,
I sure do wish I was at home.
I don't care what the neighbors say,
I'm gonna love you each and every day.
You can feel the beat within my heart.
Realize, sweet babe, we ain't ever gonna part.



Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You

Babe, baby, baby, I'm Gonna Leave You.
I said baby, you know I'm gonna leave you.
I'll leave you when the summertime,
Leave you when the summer comes a-rollin'
Leave you when the summer comes along.

Baby, baby, I don't wanna leave you,
I ain't jokin' woman, I got to ramble.
Oh, yeah, baby, baby, I believin',
We really got to ramble.
I can hear it callin' me the way it used to do,
I can hear it callin' me back home!

Babe...I'm gonna leave you
Oh, baby, you know, I've really got to leave you
Oh I can hear it callin 'me
I said don't you hear it callin' me the way it used to do?
Ohhh

I know, I know
I know I never never never gonna leave your babe
But I got to go away from this place,
I've got to quit you, yeah
Ooh, baby...
Baby, ooh don't you hear it callin' me?
Woman, woman, I know, I know
It feels good to have you back again
And I know that one day baby, it's really gonna grow, yes it is.
We gonna go walkin' through the park every day.
Come what may, every day
Oooh, mama baby
I'm gonna leave you--go away

It was really, really good.
You made me happy every single day.
But now!
I've got to go away!

Baby, baby, baby, baby
That's when it's callin' me
I said that's when it's callin' me back home...



You Shook Me

You know you shook me,
You shook me all night long.
You know you shook me, baby,
You shook me all night long.
You shook me so hard baby,
Baby, baby, please come home.

I have a bird that whistles,
And I have birds that sing.
I have a bird that whistles,
And I have birds that sing.
I have a baby, won't do nothing, oh!
Oh, oh, buy a diamond ring.

You know you shook me, baby,
You shook me all night long.
I know you really, really, did baby.
I said you shook me, baby.
You shook me all night long.
You shook me so hard, baby.
You shook me all night long.



Dazed And Confused

Been Dazed and Confused for so long it's not true,
Wanted a woman, never bargained for you.
Lots of people talk and few of them know,
Soul of a woman was created below. Yeah!

You hurt and abused tellin' all of your lies,
Run around sweet baby, Lord how they hypnotize.
Sweet little baby, I don't know where you've been,
Gonna love you baby, here I come again.

Every day I work so hard
Bringin' home my hard earned pay
Try to love you baby, but you push me away.
Don't know where you're goin'
Only know just where you've been,
Sweet little baby, I want you again.

Been dazed and confused for so long, it's not true,
Wanted a woman, never bargained for you.
Take it easy baby, let them say what they will.
Will your tongue wag so much when I send you the bill?



Your Time Is Gonna Come

Lyin', cheatin', hurtin, that's all you seem to do.
Messin' around with every guy in town,
Puttin' me down for thinkin' of someone new.
Always the same, playin' your game,
Drive me insane, trouble is gonna come to you,
One of these days and it won't be long,
You'll look for me but baby, I'll be gone.
This is all I gotta say to you woman:

*Your Time Is Gonna Come
Your Time Is Gonna Come
Your Time Is Gonna Come
Your Time Is Gonna Come

Made up my mind to break you this time,
Won't be so fine, it's my turn to cry.
Do want you want, I won't take the brunt.
It's fadin' away, can't feel you anymore.
Don't care what you say 'cause I'm goin' away to stay,
Gonna make you pay for that great big hole in my heart.
People talkin' all around,
Watch out woman, no longer
Is the joke gonna be on my heart.
You been bad to me woman,
But it's coming back home to you.

* Chorus



Communication Breakdown

Hey, girl, stop what you're doin'!
Hey, girl, you'll drive me to ruin.
I don't know what it is that I like about you,
But I like it a lot.
Won't let me hold you,
Let me feel your lovin' charms.

*Communication Breakdown,
It's always the same,
I'm having a nervous breakdown,
Drive me insane!

Hey, girl, I got something I think you ought to know.
Hey, babe, I wanna tell you that I love you so.
I wanna hold you in my arms, yeah!
I'm never gonna let you go,
'Cause I like your charms.

* Chorus

I want you to love me all night...

* Chorus

I want you to love me all night
I want you to love me
I want you to love...yeah! I want you to love!



I Can't Quit You, Baby

I Can't Quit You, Baby,
So I'm gonna put you down for awhile.
I said I can't quit you, baby,
I guess I gotta put you down for awhile.
Said you messed up my happy home,
Made me mistreat my only child.
Yessir, you did!

Said you know I love you, baby,
My love for you I could never hide.
Oh, you know I love you, baby,
My love for you I could never hide.
Oh, when I feel you near me little girl
I know you are my one desire.

When you hear me moaning and groaning, baby,
You know it hurts me deep down inside.
When you hear me moaning and groaning, baby,
You know it hurts me deep down inside.
Oh, when you hear me, honey, baby,
You know you're my one desire.
Yes, you are.



How Many More Times

How Many More Times,
Treat me the way you wanna do?
How Many More Times,
Treat me the way you wanna do?
When I give you all my love,
Please, please be true.

I'll give you all I've got to give,
Rings, pearls, and all.
I'll give you all I've got to give,
Rings, pearls, and all.
I've got to get you together baby,
I'm sure, sure you're gonna crawl.
Wanna love some other man too!

I was a young man, I couldn't resist
Started thinkin' it all over, just what I had missed.
Got me a girl and I kissed her and then and then...
Whoops, oh Lordy, well I did it again.
Now I got ten children of my own
I got another child on the way that makes eleven.
But I'm in constant heaven.
I know it's all right in my mind
'Cause I got a little schoolgirl and she's all mine
I can't get through to her 'cause it doesn't permit
But I'm gonna give her everything I've got to give.

Oh, Rosie, oh, girl
Oh, Rosie, oh, girl
Steal away now, steal away
Steal away baby, steal away
Little Robert Anthony wants to come and play.

Why don't you come to me baby?
Steal away, all right, all right...

Well they call me the hunter, that's my name
They call me the hunter, that's how I got my fame
Ain't no need to hide,
Ain't no need to run
'Cause I've got you in the sights of my..........gun!

How Many More Times
Barrelhouse all night long, all right!
How Many More Times
Barrelhouse all night long?
I've got to get to you, baby
Baby, please come home.
Why don't you listen to me babe?
Why don't you please come home?
Why don't you please come home?
Why don't you please come home?

Ooh!

What Is And What Should Never Be

And if I say to you tomorrow,
Take my hand, child, come with me.
It's to a castle I will take you,
Where what's to be, they say will be.

*Catch the wind, see us spin,
Sail away, leave today,
Way up high in the sky.
But the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go,
It only goes to show
That you will be mine
By takin' our time. Ooh!

And if you say to me tomorrow,
Oh what fun it all would be,
Then what's to stop us, pretty baby,
But What Is And What Should Never Be.

* Chorus

So if you wake up with the sunrise,
And all your dreams are still as new,
And happiness is what you need so bad,
Girl, the answer lies with you, yeah.

* Chorus

Hey, oh
Oh the wind wont blow and we really shouldn't go
and it only goes to show-ow-ow.
Catch the wind, we're gonna see it spin
we're gonna...sail, little girl
do do do, bop bop a do-oh
my my my my my my yeah

Everybody I know seems to know me well
--but does anybody know I'm gonna move like hell
--but they're never gonna know cause I move like hell.
(pick one...heh)



The Lemon Song

I should have quit you long time ago,
Yeah, long time ago.
Oh yeah, long time ago.
I wouldn't be here, my children,
down on this killin' floor.

I should have listened, baby, to my second mind
I should have listened, baby, to my second mind
Everytime I go away and leave you, darling,
You send me the blues way down the line.

Babe, treat me right, baby, oh my my my
People tellin' me baby can't be satisfied;
They try to worry me baby
But they never hurt you in my eyes.

Said, people worry I can't keep you satisfied.
Let me tell you baby,
You ain't nothin but a two-bit, no-good jive.

Went to sleep last night, worked as hard as I can,
Bring home my money, you take my money, give it to another man;
I should have quit you, baby, such a long time ago,
I wouldn't be here with all my troubles
Down on this killing floor.

Squeeze me baby, till the juice runs down my leg,
Squeeze me baby, till the juice runs down my leg;
The way you squeeze my lemon,
I..I'm gonna fall right out of bed.

Yeah.
Hey! (conversation between Robert Plant & guitar)
Baby baby baby...

I'm gonna leave my children down on this killin floor.



Thank You

*If the sun refused to shine,
I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea,
There will still be you and me.

Kind woman, I give you my all,
Kind woman, nothing more.

Little drops of rain whisper of the pain,
Tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
Together we shall go until we die.
My, my, my,
An inspiration is what you are to me,
Inspiration, look see.

And so today, my world it smiles,
Your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done,
For you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad,
Happiness....I'm glad.

*Chorus



Heartbreaker

Hey fellas, have you heard the news?
You know that Annie's back in town?
It won't take long just watch and see
How the fellas lay their money down.
Her style is new but the face is the same
As it was so long ago,
But from her eyes, a diff'rent smile
Like that of one who knows.

Well, it's been ten years and maybe more
Since I first set eyes on you;
The best years of my life gone by,
Here I am alone and blue.
Some people cry and some people die
By the wicked ways of love;
But I'll just keep on rollin' along
With the grace of the Lord above.

People talkin' all around 'bout the way you left me flat,
I don't care what the people say, I know where their jive is at.
One thing I do have on my mind, if you can clarify please do,
It's the way you call me by another guy's name when I try to make love to you!
I try to make love but it ain't no use.
Give it to me, give it!

(Guitar solo)

Work so hard I couldn't unwind,
Get some money saved;
Abuse my love a thousand times,
However hard I tried.
Heartbreaker, your time has come,
Can't take your evil way;
Go away,
Heartbreaker.

Heartbreaker!



Living Loving Maid (She's Just A Woman)

With a purple umbrella and a fifty cent hat,
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
Missus cool rides out in her aged Cadillac.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.

*Come on, babe on the round about,
Ride on the merry-go-round,
We all know what your name is,
So you better lay your money down.

Alimony, alimony payin' your bills,
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
When your conscience hits, you knock it back with pills.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.

* Chorus

Tellin' tall tales of how it used to be.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
With the butler and the maid and the servants three.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.

Oh, you got it.

Nobody hears a single word you say.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
But you keep on talkin' till your dyin' day.
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.

* Chorus

Livin', Lovin', She's just a woman.



Ramble On

Leaves are falling all around,
It's time I was on my way.
Thanks to you, I'm much obliged
For such a pleasant stay.

But now it's time for me to go,
The autumn moon lights my way.
For now I smell the rain,
And with it pain,
And it's headed my way.
Ah, sometimes I grow so tired,
But I know I've got one thing I got to do,

*Ramble On,
And now's the time, the time is now
To sing my song.
I'm goin' 'round the world,
I got to find my girl, on my way.
I've been this way ten years to the day, Ramble On,
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams.

Got no time to for spreadin' roots,
The time has come to be gone.
And tho' our health we drank a thousand times,
It's time to Ramble On.

* Chorus

I ain't tellin' no lie.

Mine's a tale that can't be told,
My freedom I hold dear;
How years ago in days of old
When magic filled the air,
T'was in the darkest depths of Mordor
I met a girl so fair,
But Gollum, and the evil one crept up
And slipped away with her.
Her, her....yea.
Ain't nothing I can do, no.

* Chorus

Gonna ramble on, sing my song
Gotta keep-a-searchin' for my baby...
Gonna work my way, round the world
I can't stop this feelin' in my heart
Gotta keep searchin' for my baby
I can't find my bluebird!
I'd listen to my bluebird sing but I can't find my blue bird
A-keep-a ramblin' baby...



Bring It On Home

Baby, baby
I'm gonna bring it on home to you.
I've got my ticket, I've got that load.
Got up, gone higher, all aboard.
Take my seat, right way back. ooh yeah
Watch this train roll down the track.
I'm gonna bring it on home,
Bring it on home to you.
Watch out, watch out, man move

Try to tell you baby
what you tryin' to do?
Tryin' to love me baby
Love some other man too.
Bring it on home...

Went a little walk downtown,
Messed and got back late.
Found a note there waiting
And it said, "Daddy, I just can't wait."
Bring it on home...
Bring it back home to me baby...

Tell you, pretty baby,
You love to mess me `roun'.
I'm gonna give you lovin', baby,
Gonna move you out o' town.
Bring it on home...

Sweetest little baby
Daddy ever saw.
I'm gonna give you lovin' baby
I'm gonna give you more.
Bring it on home...
All right.

Bring it on home,
Bring it on home to you...



Led Zeppelin III

Immigrant Song

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying:
Valhalla, I am coming!
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green,
Can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war.
We are your overlords.
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite of all your losing.



Friends

Bright light almost blinding,
Black night still there shining,
I can't stop, keep on climbing,
Looking for what I knew.

Had a friend, she once told me,
"You got love, you ain't lonely,"
Now she's gone and left me only
Looking for what I knew.

Mmm, I'm telling you now,
The greatest thing you ever can do now,
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now,
It's very easy just.

Met a man on the roadside crying,
Without a friend, there's no denying,
You're incomplete, they'll be no finding
Looking for what you knew.

So anytime somebody needs you,
Don't let them down, altho' it grieves you,
Some day you'll need someone like they do,
Looking for what you knew.

Mmm, I'm telling you now,
The greatest thing you ever can do now,
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now,
It's very easy just...ooh, yeah.



Celebration Day

Her face is cracked from smiling,
All the fears that she's been hiding,
And it seems pretty soon ev'rybody's gonna know.
And her voice is sore from shouting,
Cheering winners who are losing,
And she worries if their days are few
And soon they'll have to go.

*My, my, my, I'm so happy,
I'm gonna join the band,
We are gonna dance and sing in celebration,
We are in the promised land.

She hears them talk of new ways
To protect the home she lives in,
Then she wonders what it's all about
When they break down the door.

Her name is Brown or White or Black,
You know her very well,
You hear her cries of mercy
As the winners toll the bell.

* Chorus

There is a train that leaves the station
Heading for your destination,
But the price you pay to nowhere has increased a dollar more.
Yes, it has!
And if you walk you're gonna get there
Tho' it takes a little longer,
And when you see it in the distance
You will wring your hands and moan.



Since I've Been Loving You

Oh!

Workin' from seven to eleven ev'ry night,
It really makes life a drag,
I don't think that's right.
I've really, really been the best of fools,
I did what I could, yeah
'Cause I love you, baby,
How I love you, darling,
How I love you, baby,
How I love you, girl, little girl.
But baby, Since I've Been Loving You, yeah,
I'm about to lose my worried mind, oh, yeah.

Ev'rybody trying to tell me
That you didn't mean me no good.
I've been trying, Lord, let me tell you,
Let me tell you I really did the best I could.
I've been working from seven to eleven ev'ry night,
I said It kinda makes my life a drag.
Lord, that ain't right, no no!
Since I've Been Loving You,
I'm about to lose my worried mind.
Said I've been crying,
My tears they fell like rain,
Don't you hear,
Don't you hear them falling,
Don't you hear,
Don't you hear them falling.

Said I been cryin, yeah!
Oh my tears they felt like rain.
Don't you hear them falling?
Don't you hear them?

Do you remember, mama, when I knocked upon your door?
I said you had the nerve to tell me
You didn't want me no more, yeah
I open my front door, hear my back door slam,
You must have one of them new fangled,
New fangled back door man,

I've been working from seven, seven, seven,
To eleven ev'ry night,
It kinda makes my life a drag, a drag, drag,
Ah, yeah, it makes a drag.
Baby, Since I've Been Loving You,
I'm about to lose,
I'm about to lose, lose my worried mind.

Just one more!
Oh yeah
Since I've Been Loving You, I'm about to lose my worried mind.



Out On The Tiles

As I walk down the highway all I do is sing this song,
And a train that's passin' my way helps the rhythm move along.
There is no doubt about the words are clear,
The voice is strong, is oh so strong.

I'm just a simple guy, I live from day to day.
A ray of sunshine melts my frown and blows my blues away,
There's nothing more that I can say but on a day like today
I pass the time away and walk a quiet mile with you.

*All I need from you is all your love,
All you got to give to me is all your love,
All I need from you is all your love,
All you got to give to me is all your love.
Oooh yeah, ooh yeah, ooh yeah, oh yeah.

I'm so glad I'm living and gonna tell the world I am,
I got me a fine woman and she says that I'm her man,
One thing that I know for sure gonna give her all the loving
Like nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody can.

Standing in the noonday sun trying to flag a ride,
People go and people come, see my rider right by my side,
It's a total disgrace, they set the pace, it must be a race
And the best thing I can do is run.

* Chorus



Gallows Pole

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
Think I see my friends coming,
Riding a many mile.
Friends, did you get some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my dear friends,
To keep me from the Gallows Pole?
What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?

I couldn't get no silver, I couldn't get no gold,
You know that we're too damn poor
To keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
I think I see my brother coming,
Riding a many mile.
Brother, did you get me some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my brother,
To keep me from the Gallows Pole?

Brother, I brought you some silver,
I brought a little gold,
I brought a little of ev'ry thing
To keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Yes, I brought you to keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Hangman, hangman, turn your head awhile,
I think I see my sister coming,
Riding a many mile, mile, mile.
Sister, I implore you, take him by the hand,
Take him to some shady bower,
Save me from the wrath of this man,
Please take him,
Save me from the wrath of this man, man.

Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile,
Pray tell me that I'm free to ride,
Ride for many mile, mile, mile.

Oh, yes, you got a fine sister,
She warmed my blood from cold,
Brought my blood to boiling hot
To keep you from the Gallows Pole,
Your brother brought me silver,
Your sister warmed my soul,
But now I laugh and pull so hard
And see you swinging on the Gallows Pole

Keep-a-swingin'!
Swingin' on the gallows pole!



Tangerine

Measuring a summer's day,
I only finds it slips away to grey,
The hours, they bring me pain.

*Tangerine, Tangerine,
Living reflection from a dream;
I was her love, she was my queen,
And now a thousand years between.

Thinking how it used to be,
Does she still remember times like these?
To think of us again?
And I do.

* Chorus



That's The Way

I don't know how I'm gonna tell you
I can't play with you no more,
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me,
My friend, the boy next door.

I can't believe what people saying
You're gonna let your hair hang down,
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long,
You're in the darker side of town.

And when I'm out I see you walking,
Why don't your eyes see me,
Could it be you've found another game to play,
What did mama say to me.

*That's The Way,
Oh, That's The Way it ought to be,
Yeah, yeah, mama say
That's The Way it ought to stay.

And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes,
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
Had they got you hypnotized?

And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
But all that lives is born to die.
And so I say to you that nothing really matters,
And all you do is stand and cry.

I don't know what to say about it,
When all you ears have turned away,
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay?


That's the way
That's the way it oughtta be
Oh don't you know now
Mama said.. that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah.



Bron-Y-Aur Stomp

Ah caught you smiling at me,
That's the way it should be,
Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine.

Ah all the good times we had,
I sang love songs so glad
Always smiling, never sad, so fine.

*As we walk down the country lanes,
I'll be singing a song,
Hear me calling your name.
Hear the wind within the trees,
Telling Mother Nature 'bout you and me.

Well if the sunshines so bright,
Or on our way it's darkest night
The road we choose is always right, so fine.

Ah can your love be so strong
When so many loves go wrong
Will our love go on and on and on and on and on and on?

* Chorus

My, my la de la come on now it ain't too far,
Tell your friends all around the world,
Ain't no companion like a blue eyed merle.
Come on now well let me tell you,
What you're missing, missing, 'round them brick walls.

So of one thing I am sure,
It's a friendship so pure,
Angels singing all around
My dog is so fine.
Yeah, ain't but one thing to do
Spend my nat'ral life with you,
You're the finest dog I knew, so fine.

When you're old and your eyes are dim,
There ain't no old Shep gonna happen again,
We'll still go walking down country lanes,
I'll sing the same old songs,
Hear me call your name.



Hats Off To (Roy) Harper

Black Dog

Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move
Gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove.
Oh, oh, child, way you shake that thing
Gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting.
Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way
Watch your honey drip, can't keep away.

*Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.
Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.

Got a flame in my heart, can't get my fill,
Eyes that shine burning red,
Dreams of you all thru my head.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.

Hey, baby, oh, baby, pretty baby,
Tell me what you do me now.
(Repeat)

Didn't take too long 'fore I found out
What people mean my down and out.
Spent my money, took my car,
Started tellin' her friends she wants to be a star.
I don't know but I been told
A big legged woman ain't got no soul.

* Chorus

All I ask for when I pray,
Steady rollin' woman gonna come my way.
Need a woman gonna hold my hand
And tell me no lies, make me a happy man.



Rock And Roll

It's been a long time since I Rock and Rolled,
It's been a long time since I did the Stroll.
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back,
Let me get it back, baby, where I come from.
It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
Yes it has.

It's been a long time since the book of love,
I can't count the tears of a life with no love.
Carry me back, carry me back,
Carry me back, baby, where I come from.
It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,
Making vows that just can't work right.
Open your arms, opens your arms,
Open your arms, baby, let my love come running in.
It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.



The Battle Of Evermore

Queen of Light took her bow
And then she turned to go,
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom
And walked the night alone.

Oh, dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morn - ing light.
The dark Lord rides in force tonight
And time will tell us all.

Oh, throw down your plow and hoe,
Rest not to lock your homes.

Side by side we wait the might
Of the darkest of them all.

I hear the horses' thunder
Down in the valley blow,
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon,
Waiting for the eastern glow.

The apples of the valley hold,
The seas of happiness,
The ground is rich from tender care,
Repay, do not forget, no, no.
Oh,-------dance in the dark of night,
sing to the morning light.

The apples turn to brown and black,
The tyrant's face is red.

Oh the war is common cry,
Pick up you swords and fly.
The sky is filled with good and bad
That mortals never know.

Oh, well, the night is long
The beads of time pass slow,
Tired eyes on the sunrise,
Waiting for the eastern glow.

The pain of war cannot exceed
The woe of aftermath,
The drums will shake the castle wall,
The ring wraiths ride in black,
Ride on.

Sing as you raise your bow,
Shoot straighter than before.
No comfort has the fire at night
That lights the face so cold.

Oh dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the mornin' light.
The magic runes are writ in gold
To bring the balance back.
Bring it back.

At last the sun is shining,
The clouds of blue roll by,
With flames from the dragon of darkness
The sunlight blinds his eyes.



Stairway To Heaven

There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.

There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.

There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And it's whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.

And she's buying a stairway to heaven.



Misty Mountain Hop

Walkin' in the park just the other day, Baby,
What do you, what do you think I saw?
Crowds of people sittin' on the grass with flowers in their hair said,
"Hey, Boy, do you wanna score?"
And you know how it is;
I really don't know what time it was, woh, oh,
So I asked them if I could stay awhile.

I didn't notice but it had got very dark and I was really,
Really out of my mind.
Just then a policeman stepped up to me and asked us said,
"Please, hey, would we care to all get in line,
Get in line."
Well you know,
They asked us to stay for tea and have some fun,
Oh, oh, he said that his friends would all drop by, ooh.

Why don't you take a good look at yourself and describe what you see,
And Baby, Baby, Baby, do you like it?
There you sit, sitting spare like a book on a shelf rustin'
Ah, not trying to fight it.
You really don't care if they're coming, oh, oh,
I know that it's all a state of mind, ooh.

If you go down in the streets today, Baby, you better,
You better open your eyes.
Folk down there really don't care, really don't care, don't care, really don't
Which, which way the pressure lies,
So I've decided what I'm gonna do now.
So I'm packing my bags for the Misty Mountains
Where the spirits go now,
Over the hills where the spirits fly, ooh.
I really don't know.



Four Sticks

Oh, Baby, it's cryin' time,
Oh, Baby, I got to fly.
Got to try to find a way,
Got to try to get away,
'Cause you know I gotta get away from you, Babe.

Oh, Baby, the river's red,
Oh, Baby, in my head.
There's a funny feelin' goin' on,
I don't think I can hold out long.

*And when the owls cry in the night,
Oh, Baby, Baby, when the pines begin to cry,
Baby, Baby, Baby, how do you feel?
If the river runs dry, Baby,
How do you feel?

Craze, Baby, the rainbow's end,
Mmm, Baby, it's just a den
For those who hide,
Who hide their love to depths of life
And ruin dreams that we all knew so, Babe.

* Chorus



Going To California

Spent my days with a woman unkind,
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
Made up my mind to make a new start,
Going To California with an aching in my heart.

Someone told me there's a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
Took my chances on a big jet plane,
Never let them tell you that they're all the same.

The sea was red and the sky was grey,
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
As the children of the sun began to awake.

Seems that the wrath of the Gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
I think I might be sinking.
Throw me a line if I reach it in time
I'll meet you up there where the path
Runs straight and high.

To find a queen without a king;
They say she plays guitar and cries and sings.
La la la la
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born.
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
Telling myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.



When The Levee Breaks

If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break,
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break,
When The Levee Breaks I'll have no place to stay.

Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan,
Lord, mean old levee taught me to weep and moan,
Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home,
Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well.

Don't it make you feel bad
When you're tryin' to find your way home,
You don't know which way to go?
If you're goin' down South
They go no work to do,
If you don't know about Chicago.

Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
Now, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move.

All last night sat on the levee and moaned,
All last night sat on the levee and moaned,
Thinkin' 'bout me baby and my happy home.
Going, go'n' to Chicago,
Go'n' to Chicago,
Sorry but I can't take you.
Going down, going down now, going down.

Houses Of The Holy

The Song Remains The Same

I had a dream
Oh, yeah
Crazy dream, uh-huh.
Anything I wanted to know
Any place I needed to go

Hear my song
Yeah...People don't you listen now? Sing along!
Oh, You don't know what you're missing now.
Any little song that you know
Everything that's small has to grow.
And it has to grow!
Push push, yeah!

California sunlight, sweet Calcutta rain
Honolulu starbright--the song remains the same. ooh! ooh!
Here we go!

Honolulu now...
Sing out Hare Hare, dance the Hoochie Koo.
City lights are oh so bright, as we go sliding
sliding
sliding through.

Oh!



The Rain Song

This is the springtime of my loving-
the second season I am to know
You are the sunlight in my growing-
so little warmth I've felt before.
It isn't hard to feel me glowing-
I watched the fire that grew so low.

It is the summer of my smiles-
flee from me Keepers of the Gloom.
Speak to me only with your eyes
it is to you I give this tune.
Ain't so hard to recognize-
These things are clear to all from
time to time. Ooooh...

Talk Talk-
I've felt the coldness of my winter
I never thought it would ever go
I cursed the gloom that set upon us...

But I know that I love you so
but I know that I love you so.

These are the seasons of emotion
And like the winds they rise and fall
This is the wonder of devotion-
I see the torch we all must hold.
This is the mystery of the quotient-
Upon us all a little rain
must fall.
Just a little rain?
ooooh, yeah yeah yeah!



Over The Hills And Far Away

Hey lady--you got the love I need
Maybe more than enough.
Oh Darling... walk a while with me

Ooh, you've got so much...

Many times I loved
Many times been bitten
Many times I've gazed
Along the open road.

Many times I've lied
Many times I've listened
Many times I've wondered
How much there is to know.

Many dreams come true
And some have silver linings
I live for my dream
And a pocketful of gold.

Mellow is the man
Who knows what he's been missing
Many many men
Can't see the open road.

Many is a word
That only leaves you guessing
Guessing 'bout a thing
You really ought to know, ooh!
You really ought to know
I really ought to know!
oooh, You know I should, you know I should, you know I should...



The Crunge

And she's the kind of lover that makes me me fill the whole world and
She's the one who really makes me jump and shout, ooh!
She's the kind of girl--I know what it's all about!
Take it take it

Excuse me
Oh will ya excuse me
I'm just trying to find the bridge
Has anybody seen the bridge?
Please!

(Have you seen the bridge?)

I ain't seen the bridge!

(Where's that confounded bridge?)



Dancing Days

Dancing days are here again
As the summer evenings grow
I got my flower, I got my power
I got a woman who knows.

CHORUS

I said it's alright
You know it's alright
I guess it's all in my heart

You'll be my only, my one and only
Is that the way it should start?

Crazy ways are evident
In the way that you're wearing your clothes
Suppin' boze is precedent
As the evening starts to glow.

CHORUS

I told your mamma I'd get you home
But I didn't tell her I had no car
I saw a lion he was standing alone
With a tadpole in a jar.

CHORUS

Dancing days are here again
As the summer evening grows
You are my flower, you are my power
You are my woman who knows.

CHORUS



D'yer Mak'er

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh
Baby please don't go.

Ay ay ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay ay
All those tears I cry ay ay ay ay ay
Baby please don't go.

CHORUS

When I read the letter you wrote
it made me mad mad mad
When I read the news that it brought me
It made me sad sad sad.
But I still love you so
I can't let you go
I love you- ooh baby I love you.

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Every breath I take oh oh oh oh oh
Every move I make oh oh oh oh oh
Baby please don't go.

Ay ay ay ay ay ay
You hurt me to my soul ay ay ay ay ay
You hurt me to my soul ay ay ay ay ay

(Whatever happened to Rosie and the Originals?)



No Quarter

Close the door, put out the light.
No, they won't be home tonight.
The snow falls hard and don't you know?
The winds of Thor are blowing cold.
They're wearing steel that's bright and true
They carry news that must get through, oooh

They choose the path where no-one goes.

They hold no quarter.
They hold no quarter.

Walking side by side with death
The devil mocks their every step
The snow drives back the foot that's slow
The dogs of doom are howling more
They carry news that must get through
To build a dream for me and you

They choose the path where no-one goes.

They hold no quarter.
They ask no quarter.

The pain, the pain without quarter.
They ask no quarter.
Yeah! Without quarter, quarter, yeah!
The dogs of doom are howling more!
I hear the dogs of doom are howling more!



The Ocean

(We've done four already but now we're steady and then they went:
One, two, three, four)

Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain
Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the grain
Ain't no time to pack my bag, my foots outside the door
Got a date, I can't be late, for the high hopes hailla ball.
'got a hell hound on my t(r)ail'
'cause it's hell I'm headed for'
(No one really knows which one it is)

Uh-huh! oh oh yeah!

Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar
Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more, more!
Singing 'bout good things and the sun that lights the day
I used to sing on the mountains, then the ocean lost it's way.
I've been there (I don't know?)
Oh oh yeah!

Oh, yeah!

na na na..., La la la...

Sitting round singing songs til the night turns into day
Used to sing on the mountains but the mountains washed away
Now I'm singing all my songs to the girl who won my heart
She is only three years old and it's a real fine way to start.
Oh yeah!

It sure is fine!
Blow my mind!
>>(He's saying _something_ here)
Yeah yeah!

Do wop a diddly diddly........

Oh, so good!

The Rover

I've been to London, seen seven wonders,
I know to trip is just to fall.
I used to rock it, sometimes I'd roll it,
I always knew what it was for.

There can be no denying,
That the wind'll shake 'em down,
An' the flag we're flyin',
Is the new flag of the land.

We could just join hands,
If we could just join hands,
If we could just join.

In fields of plenty, when heaven sent me,
I saw the Kings who rule them all.
Still by the firelight, in purple moonlight,
I hear the rustic rivers call.

And the wind is cryin',
From a love that won't grow cold,
My lover she is lying,
On the dark side of the globe.

We could just join hands,
We could just join hands,
If we could just join hands.

Yeah-ah. Yeah-ah.
Yeah-ah. Yeah-ah.
Yeah-ah. Yeah-ah.
Yeah-ah.

Do it, hah.

You got me rockin'
When I oughta be a-rollin' darlin',
Tell me darlin' which way to go.

Keep me rockin' baby,
Can you keep me strollin'?
Won't you tell me darlin' which way to go.
That's right!

Oh how I wonder, oh how I worry,
And I would dearly like to know
How all this squander of earthly plunder,
Will leave us anythin' to show.

And our time is flyin',
See the candle burning low,
Is the new world risin',
From the shambles of the old?

We could just join hands,
If we could just join hands,
If we could just, if we could just, if we could just,
If we could just, if we could just join hands, hey.

That's all it takes, that's all it takes,
That's all it takes, that's all it takes.

Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah,
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah,
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah,
Yeah yeah.
Ooh, yeah.
Ah. Ah. Yeah.

That's right, that's right, that's right, that's right.



In My Time Of Dying

In my time of dying, want nobody to mourn
All I want for you to do is take my body home

Houses Of The Holy

Let me take you to the movies
Can I take you to the show
Let me be yours ever truly
Can I make your garden grow

From the houses of the holy
We can watch the white doves go
From the door comes Satan's daughter
And it only goes to show
Ah, you know

There's an angel on my shoulder
In my hand a sword of gold
Let me wander in your garden
And the seeds of love I'll sow
You know-whoa-oh

So the world is spinning faster
Are you dizzy when you're stoned
Let the music be your master
Will you heed the master's call
Oh-whoa-oh, Satan an' man

Said there ain't no use in cryin'
'Cause it will only, only drive you mad
Does it hurt to hear them lyin'
Was this the only world you had
Oh-oh

So let me take you, take you to the movie
Can I take you, baby, to the show
Why don't you let me be yours ever truly
Can I make your garden grow
You know-whoa, that's right

Kashmir

Whoa, let the sun beat down upon my face
And stars to fill my dream
I am a traveler of both time and space
To be where I have been
T' sit with elders of the gentle race
This world has seldom seen
Th' talk of days for which they sit and wait
All will be revealed

Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace
Whose sounds caress my ear
But not a word I heard could I relate
The story was quite clear
Whoa-hoh, whoa-wa-oh

Oooh, oh baby, I been flyin'
Lord, yeah, mama, there ain't no denyin'
Oh, oooh yes, I've been flying
Mama, mama, ain't no denyin', no denyin'

Oh, all I see turns to brown
As the sun burns the ground
And my eyes fill with sand
As I scan this wasted land
Tryin' to find, tryin' to find where I beeeeeuhoaoh

Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace
Like thoughts inside a dream
Heed the path that led me to that place
Yellow desert stream
My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon
Will return again
Sure as the dust that floats b'hind you
When movin' through Kashmir

Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails
Across the sea of years
With no provision but an open face
'Long the straits of fear
Whaoh, whaoh
Whaoh-oh, oh

Ohhhh

Well, when I want, when I'm on my way, yeah
When I see, when I see the way, you stay-yeah

Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, well I'm down, yes
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, well I'm down, so down
Ooh, my baby, oooh, my baby, let me take you there

Oh, oh, come on, come on
Oh, let me take you there
Let me take you there
Whoo-ooh, yeah-yeah, whoo-ooh, yeah-yeah, let me take you



In The Light

And if you feel that you can't go on
And your will's sinkin' low
Just believe and you can't go wrong
In the light you will find the road
You will find the road

Hey, ooh, did you ever believe that I could leave you
Standing out in the cold
Hey, yeah, baby, I know how it feels 'cause I have slipped through
To the very depths of my soul, yeah
Oh-whoa, baby, I just wanna show what I'd give you
It is from ev'ry ben' in the road
Now listen to me
Oh, whoa-whoa, as I was and really would be for you, too, honey
As you would for me

Let me share your load

Down By The Seaside

Down by the seaside
See the boats go sailin'
Can the people hear, oh
What the little fish are sayin'

Oh, oh, the people turned away
Oh, the people turned away

Down in the city streets
See all the folk go racin', racin'
No time left, no-no
To pass the time of day

Hey, hey, yeah, the people turned away
The people turned away
So far away, so far away

See how they run, see how they run, see how they run, see how they run
Run-run, run-run, run-run

Do you still do the twist
Do you find you remember things that well
I wanna tell you
Some folk twistin' every day
Though sometimes it's awful hard to tell
Ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha, oh

Out in the country
Hear the people singin'
Singin' 'bout their progress
Knowin' where they're goin'
Yeah, yeah

Oh, oh, oh, oh, the people turned away
Yes, the people turned away

Sing loud for the sunshine
Pray hard for the rain
And show your love for Lady Nature
And she will come back again
Yes she will, yes she will

Oh, oh, oh, the people turned away
The people turned away

Don't they know that they're goin'



Ten Years Gone

Then as it was, then again it will be
An' though the course may change sometimes
Rivers always reach the sea

Blind stars of fortune
Each have several rays
On the wings maybe
Down in birds of prey
Kind of makes me feel sometimes
Didn't have to grow
But as the eagle leaves the nest
It got so far to go

Changes fill my time
Baby, that's alright with me
In the midst I think of you
And how it used to be

Did you ever really need somebody
And really need 'em bad
Did you ever really want somebody
The best love you ever had
Do you ever remember me, baby
Did it feel so good
'Cause it was just the first time
And you knew you would

Through the eyes an' I sparkle
Senses growing keen
Taste your love along the way
See your feathers preen
Kind of makes makes me feel sometimes
Didn't have to grow
We are eagles of one nest
The nest is in our soul

Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me
Never thought I'd see your face the way it used to be
Oh darlin', oh darlin'

Ohh

Oh darlin'
Oh, yeah
Oh darlin'
I'm never gonna leave you
I never gonna leave
Holdin' on, ten years gone
Ten years gone, holdin' on, ten years gone
Ten years gone, holdin' on, ten years gone
Holdin' on, everday
I'm never
I nev'
I'm never
I never
I'm never
Oh



Night Flight

I received a message from my brother 'cross the water
He sat laughin' as he wrote the end's in sight
So I said goodbye to all my friends
And packed my hopes inside a matchbox
'Cause I know it's time to fly

Ohhoaoh, yeah, come on, meet me in the morning
Meet me in the middle of the night
Ah-oh, yeah, the morning light is comin'
Don't it make you wanna go 'n an' feel alright

Ooh, yeah
Ah-ha

I just jumped a train that never stops
So know somehow they'll know I never
Finished payin' for my ride
Just n' someone pushed a gun into my hand
Tell me I'm the type of man
To fight the fight that I'll require

Ohhoaoh, yeah, ha, come on meet me in the morning
Won't you meet me in the middle of the night, night, night, yeah
Ohhoaoh, well, the morning light is comin'

Oh, mama, well I think it's time I'm leavin'
Nothin' here to make me stay
Whoa, mama, well it must be time I'm goin'
They're knockin' down them doors
They're tryin' to take me away

Please Mr. Brakeman, won't you ring your bell
And ring loud and clear
Unnh, please Mr. Fireman, won't you ring your bell
Tell the people they got to fly away from here

Ohhoaoh, I once saw a picture of a lady with a baby
Suddenly they have a very, very special smile
We are in the middle of a change in destination
When the train stops, all together we will smile

Ohhoaoh, come on, come on, now, meet me in the morning
Won't you meet me in the middle of the night, night, n-n-ni-night
Hoah, hoah, yeah, everybody know the mornin' time is comin'

The Wanton Song

Silent woman in the night, you came
Tell me 't I see through my shakin' frame
Same old thing, yeah, I'm not a-playin'
And the wheel rolls on

Silent moves through the flames, you come
From the deep behind the sun
Gives me nightmares, my love has gone
Left me barely holdin' on, oh... oh

With blazin' eyes I see my tremblin' hands
When we know the time has come
Lose many senses, lose command
Feel your healin' rivers run

'Y 's it every time I fall
That I think this is the one
Ooh, in the darkness can you hear me call
Another day has just begun... another day, yeah

Ooh

Sud'en'y all of my face is changed
Some know wha' it has become
Feel my fire needs a brand-new flame
And the wheels rolls on

Rolls on
Rolls on
Rolls on, eunh

Sick Again

From the windows of a rented limousine
I saw your pretty blue eyes
One day soon you're gonna reach sixteen
Painted lady in the city of lies.

Oh, do you know my name
Do I look the same
You know I'm the one you want, baby
I must be the one you need, yeah

Clutchin' pages from your teenage dream
In the lobby of the Hotel Paradise
Through the circus of the L.A. queens
How fast your learn the downhill slide

Oh, how you play the game
Still don't know your name
You know I'm the one you want, baby
Whooh, yes, I've got to be the one you need, need, need, need,
yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Oh, you got to tell me

Just a minute, just a minute
Lips like cherries on the brow of a queen
Come on, flash it, flash in my eyes
Said you dug me since you were thirteen
Then you giggle as heave an' sigh

Oh, do you know my name
Do I look the same
Baby, I got to tell you, I'm the one you want
And everybody knows I'm the one you need, yeah-yeah

Oh, get it, get it
Come on now
Come on now
Come on now

Hours, hours, were the moments in between
Oh, baby, I couldn't count the times
I've thought of comin' on a plane an' leavin'
Oh, baby, dry those silver eyes

Oh, do you know my name
Do I look the same
You know I'm the one you want
Whoo-ooh, ye-yes, I'm the one you need, yeah-yeah

Presence

Achilles Last Stand

It was an April morning
When they told us we should go
As I turn to you
You smiled at me
How could we say no?

With all the fun to have
To live the dreams we always had
Woa the songs to sing
When we at last return again

Sending off a glancing kiss
To those who claim they know
To know the streets the seaman hears
The devil is in his hole

Oh to sail away
To sandy lands and other days
Oh to touch the dream
Hides inside and never seen, yeah

Into the sun the south the north
Lies the first of hope
The shackles of commitment fell
In pieces on the ground

Oh to ride the wind
To tread the air above the din
Oh to laugh aloud
Dancing as we fought the crowd

To seek the man whose pointing hand
The giant step unfolds
With guidance from the curving path
That churns up into stone

If one bell should ring
In celebration for a king
So fast the heart should beat
As proud the head with heavy feet, yeah

(Cool Guitar Solo)

Days went by when you and I
Made an eternal summers glow
As far away and distant
Our mutual time to grow

Oh the sweet refrain
Soothes the soul and calms the pain
Oh Albion remains, sleeping now to rise again

Wandering upon the rings
What place to rest the search
The mighty arms of Atlas
Hold the heavens from the earth

The mighty arms of Atlas
Hold the heavens from the earth

From the earth
Ooooooooooooooh

I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way (2x)

Ooh, ahh, etc...

Oh the mighty arms of Atlas
Hold the heavens from the earth
Oooh, ahh, etc...



For Your Life

You said I was the only, oh, oh
With my lemon in your hand
Exhibition is your habit
Emotions second hand, oh, oh
Had to pull away to save me
Maybe next time around
And she said, don't you wannit?
Don't you want coca coca cocaine?
Hadn't planned to, could not stand to
Try it, friend, yeah, na, na, yeah
Whoo ooh ooh ooh

Heard a cry for mercy
In the city of the damned
Oh oh babe, damned
Impossible to go lower
The next stop's on the ground
Oh, low on the ground
You want to know is it quite over
To fame and tears and losing hair
And I said didn't mean to... did not mean to f-fail
You didn't plan it, you overran it...yeeeeeeah!

You wanna do it, you wanna
You wanna do it when you wanna
You wanna do it, do it when you wanna

When you blow it, babe
You got to blow it right
Oh baby, if you fake it, mama
Baby, fake with all your might
When you fake it, mama
Please fake it right

For yourself, babe, will you fake it?
You're fakin' it for your life
For your life
For your life
For your life

Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it
Do it when you wanna
Do it, do it, do it
Do it when you wanna

Oh, I can have you, baby
But I don't know what to do, yeah
Sometime, baby, nothin' I could do

Wanna find myself a crystal
Payin' through the nose

And when they couldn't resist you
I said "Just go with the flow"

And now your stage is empty
and now the curtain, baby please.
Fold up your show

Hadn't planned to
Could not stand to
(fryin!)
Hadn't planned it
I over ran in
(fryin!)
For your life
For your life



Royal Orleans

One town love
You better take care how you use it
Try to make it last all night
And if you take your pick
Be careful how you choose it
Sometimes its hard to feel it bite
Feel it bite

A man I know, went down to Louisiana
Had himself a bad, bad fight
And when the sun peeks through
John Cameron he sees (sandy???)
He kissed the whiskers and left and right
Whiskers!

Now, now, now
A fight subsides
Out at a hotel in the quarter
A friendship took a bash tonight
Now love gets hot
Look far for a sea with water
Grew whiskers sittin' there through the night

Whiskers!

Down on Bourbon street
You know it's right
You can see my friend
When they run around us in the night
Most everywhere
Until the closet's bare
Run for the razor, fun
Doin' up my hair

New Orleans queens
Sure know how to schmooz it
Maybe for some that seems alright
When I step out
I'm struck down with my sugar
She wears my cloak like fairy white
Now, one town love
Take care how you use it
And try to make it last all night
Take your pick
Be careful how you choose it
Sometimes it's hard to feel it bite.



Nobody's Fault But Mine

Nobody's fault but mine

Ah, ah, ah ...

Somebody show me the ding dong ding dong

Oh, it's nobody's fault but mine

That monkey on my back
The m-m-m-m-monkey on my back, back, back
Gonna change my ways tonight
Nobody's fault but mine

Hots On For Nowhere

I was burned in the heat of the moment,
Oh! it could've been the heat of the day
When I learned how my time had been wasted,
Dear fellows I turned away
Now I've got friends who will give me their shoulder,
When I should happen to fall
Time and his bride growing older
I've got friends who will give me fuck all ???????????

La, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
La, la, la, la, la, na, na, baby
La, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
La, la, la, la, la, la

Corner of Bleeker and nowhere
In the land of not quite day
A shiver runs down my backbone
Face in the mirror turns grey
So, I looked 'round for a hitch from a reindeer
Said you oughtta find him out in the day
I turned 'round to look for the snowman
To my surprise he'd melted away, yeah

La, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
La, la, la, la, la, na, na, baby
La, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
La, la, la, la, la, la

The moon and the stars out of order
As the tide tends to ebb and sway
The sun in my soul's sinking lower
While the hope in my hands turns to clay
I don't ask that my feet fall on clover
I don't roam at opportunity's door
Why don't you ask my advice, take it slower
Then your story'd be your finest reward ??????????

La, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
La, la, la, la, la, na, na, baby
La, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
La, la, la, la, la, la

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

[guitar solo]

Lost on the path to attainment
Search in the eyes of the wise
When I bled from the heart of the matter (matchhead?)
I started bleeding without a disguise
Now everything's finally happened
Now and then you've got to take time to pause
When you're down on the ground, don't be messin' around
Or you'll land in a boat without oars

La, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
La, la, la, la, la, na, na, baby
La, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
La, la, la, la, la, la

Tea For One

How come twenty four hours
Baby sometimes seem to slip into days
Oh twenty-four hours
Baby sometimes seem to slip into days
When a minute seems like a lifetime
Ooh baby when I feel this way

Sittin, lookin at the clock
Oh time moves so slow
I've been watchin for the hands to move
Until I just can't look no more

How come twenty four hours
Baby sometimes seems to slip into days
A minute seems like a lifetime
Baby when I feel this way

To sing a song for you
I recall you used to say
"Oh baby this one's for we too"
Which in the end is you anyway

How come twenty four hours
Baby sometimes slip into days
A minute seems like a lifetime
Oh baby when I feel this way

There was a time that I stood tall
In the eyes of other men
But by my own choice I left you woman
And now I can't get back again

How come twenty-four hours
Sometimes slip into days

Well well well
A minute seems like a lifetime
Baby when I feel this way
A minute seems like a lifetime
Oh baby
When I feel this way...I feel this way



In Through The Out Door

In The Evening

In the evening
When the day is done
I'm looking for a woman
Oh, but the girl don't come
So don't let her
Play you for a fool
She don't show no pity baby
No no, she don't make no rules


Oh, oh, I need your love,
I need your love
Oh, I need your love
I just got to have

So don't you let her
Oh, get under your skin
It's only bad luck and trouble
>From the day that you begin
I hear you crying in the darkness
Don't ask nobody's help
Ain't no pockets full of mercy baby
Cause you can only blame yourself

Oh, oh, I need your love,
I need your love
Oh, I need your love
I just got to have

Oh it's simple
All the pain that you go through
You can turn away from fortune, fortune
Cause that's all that's left to you
It's lonely at the bottom
Man, it's dizzy at the top
But if you're standing in the middle
Ain't no way you're gonna stop

Oh, oh, I need your love,
I need your love
Oh, I need your love
I got to have

Oh whatever that your days may bring
No use hiding in a corner, Oh no
Cause that won't change a thing
If you're dancing in the doldrums
One day soon, it's got to stop, it's got to stop
When you're the master of the off-chance
When you don't expect a lot

Oh, oh, I need your love,
I need your love
Oh, yeah, I need your love
I got to have

oooh, ooh, etc...



South Bound Saurez

Baby, when you walk that sweet walk
Oh, you walk it good, yes you walk it good
Baby, when you talk that sweet talk
Oh, it sounds so good, oh so good

With a little bit of concentration
And a little bit of helpin' hands, yeah
And a little bit of raving madness
You know it makes me feel, baby
Both my feet are back on the ground

And when the rhythm takes me
It feels so good, oh so good
Baby if it keeps a-shaking
It will do you good, oh so much good

With a little bit of stop-a-shakin' shakin'
And a little bit of ?fly right down?
And a little bit of sweet con carne
It makes me feel, makes me feel
I got my feet on the ground

Ooh now baby, when you move it makes me
Really feel so good, oh so good
And I'm so glad, so glad, so glad, so flad
And I'm good, oh, so good

With a little bit of concentration
And a little bit of helping hand
And a little bit of ?saving madness?
You know it makes me feel, baby
I'm back on the ground oh yes, sure does
It makes me feel back on the ground.

I'm feelin' good child!
Down on the ground.
Sha la la la...



Fool In The Rain

Oh, baby

Well there's a light in your eye that keeps shining
Like a star that can't wait for the night
I hate to think I've been blinded baby
Why can't I see you tonight?

And the warmth of your smile starts a-burnin'
And the thrill of your touch gives me fright
And I'm shaking so much, really yearning
Why don't you show up, make it all right?
Yeah, it's all right.

And if you promised you'd love so completely
and you said you would always be true
You swore that you would never leave me, baby:
What ever happened to you?

And you thought it was only movies
As you wish all your dreams would come true--Hey
It ain't the first time believe me, baby
I'm standin here feeling blue
Yeah I'm blue

Now I will stand in the rain on the corner
I'll watch the people go shuffling downtown
Another ten minutes no longer
And then I'm turning around

The clock on the wall's moving slower
My heart it sinks to the ground
And the storm that I thought would blow over
Clouds the light of the love that I found

Now my body is starting to quiver
And the palms of my hands getting wet
I've got no reason to doubt you baby,
It's all a terrible mess

I'll run in the rain till I'm breathless
When I'm breathless I'll run till I drop, hey
The thoughts of a fool's kind of careless
I'm just a fool waiting on the wrong block, oh yeah

Light of the love that I found...



Hot Dog

Well I just got into town today
To find my girl who's gone away
She took the Greyhound at the General Store
I searched myself I searched the town
When I finally did sit down
I find myself no wiser than before

She said we couldn't do no wrong
No other love could be so strong
She locked up my heart in her bottom drawer
Now she took my heart she took my keys
>From in my old blue dungarees
And I'll never go to Texas anymore

Now my baby's gone I don't know what to do
She took my love and walked right out the door
And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure
I'm gonna give her something like she never had before

I took her love at seventeen
A little late these days it seems
But they said heaven is well worth waiting for
I took her word I took it all
Beneath the sign that said U-haul
She left angels hangin round for more

Now my baby's gone I don't know what to do
She took my love and walked right out the door
And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure
I'm gonna give her something like she never had before

I thought I had it all sewn up
Our love, a plot, a pick-up truck
But folks said she was after something more
I never did quite understand
All that talk about rockin' bands
But they just rolled my doll right out the door
Oh yeah, they just rolled my doll right out the door!



Carouselambra

Sisters of the way-side bide their time in quiet peace,
Await their place within the ring of calm;
Still stand to turn in seconds of release,
Await the call they know may never come.
In times of lightness, no intruder dared upon
To jeopardize the course, upset the run;
And all was joy and hands were raised toward the sun
As love in the halls of plenty overrun.

Aaah, ahhh...

Still in their bliss unchallenged mighty feast,
Unending dances shadowed on the day.
Within their walls, their daunting formless keep,
Preserved their joy and kept their doubts at bay.
Faceless legions stood in readiness to weep,
Just turn a coin, bring order to the fray;
And everything is soon no sooner thought than deed,
But no one seemed to question in anyway.

Aaah, ahhh...

How keen the storied hunter's eye prevails upon the land
To seek the unsuspecting and the weak;
And powerless the fabled sat, too smug to lift a hand
Toward the foe that threatened from the deep.
Who cares to dry the cheeks of those who saddened stand
Adrift upon a sea of futile speech?
And to fall to fate and make the 'status plan'
...............reach

Singin'....

Where was your word, where did you go?
Where was your helping, where was your bow? Bow.

Dull is the armour, cold is the day.
Hard was the journey, dark was the way. Way.

I heard the word; I couldn't stay. Oh.
I couldn't stand it another day, another day-ay,
Another day, another day.

Touched by the timely coming,
Roused from the keeper's sleep,
Release the grip, throw down the key.

Held now within the knowing,
Rest now within the peace.
Take of the fruit, but guard the seed.

They had to stay!

Held now within the knowing,
Rest now within the beat.
Take of the fruit, but guard the seed...



All My Love

Should I fall out of love, my fire in the light
To chase a feather in the wind
Within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight
There moves a thread that has no end.

For many hours and days that pass ever soon
the tides have caused the flame to dim
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom
Is this to end or just begin?

All of my love, all of my love, oh,
All of my love to you, now.
All of my love, all of my love,
All of my love to you, now.

The cup is raised, the toast is made yet again
One voice is clear above the din
Proud Aryan one word, my will to sustain
For me, the cloth once more to spin

All of my love, all of my love, oh,
All of my love to you, now.
All of my love, all of my love,
All of my love to you, child.

Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time
his is the force that lies within
Ours is the fire, all the warmth we can find
He is a feather in the wind

All of my love, all of my love, oh,
All of my love to you, now.
All of my love, oh, yes, all of my love, to you now
All of my love to you, child.

Sometimes... hey hey hey, oh yeah, it's all all all of my love, all of
my love, all of my love, to you now. all of my love, all of my love,
all of my love, to to you and you and you and yeah! i get a little bit
lonely. just standin' up...a little bit a-lonely



I'm Gonna Crawl

Oh she's my baby
Let me tell you why
Hey, she drives me crazy
She's the apple of my eye
'Cause she is my girl
And she can never do wrong
If I dream too much at night
Somebody please bring me down

Hey, I love that little lady
I got to be her fool
Ain't no other like my baby

'Cause I get down on my knees
Oh, I pray that love won't die
And if I always try to please
I don't know the reason why, yeah

If she would come back
Only stay with me
Every little bit of my love, etc.

Poor Tom

Here's a tale of Tom
Who worked the rivers run
His wife would cook his meat
But he wouldn't care to eat

Poor Tom, Seventh Son, Always knew what's goin on

Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
There ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom

Worked for thirty years
Sharin' hopes and fears
Dreamin' of the day
He could turn and say

Poor Tom, work's gone, lazin' out in the noonday sun

Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom

His wife was Ellie May
One of many games she played
When Tom was out of town
She couldn't keep her dress down

Poor Tom, Seventh Son, always knew what's goin on

Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom

And so it was one day
People got to Ellie May
^^^^^^^^^^ (again, I'm open to suggestions)

Tom took a gun in his hand
And stopped all the runnin' around

Poor Tom, Seventh Son, gotta die for what you've done

All those years of work are thrown away
To ease your mind is that all you can say?

But what about that grandson on your knee?
And railroad song is ... he could be
^^^ (any ideas?)

Ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
There ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom

Keep-a Truckin'
Keep-a Truckin'

Wearing And Tearing

It starts out like a murmur

Anything that you want to do

Ya know, ya know, ya know...

Now listen:
You say your body's aching?
I know that it's aching
Chill bumps come up on you

And then you ask for medication
Who cares for medication
When you've worn away the cure

Ya know, ya know, ya know...

Go back to the country
Yeah, go back to the country
Feel a change is good for you
When you keep convincin'
Ah, don't keep convincin'
