LED ZEPPELIN I

 

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 X4

 

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 dont know what it is i like about you

But i like your love

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 X2

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? X3

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 all your dreams are still as new,

And happiness is what you need so bad,

Girl, the answer lies with you, yeah.

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 X2

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, X2

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 they're drivin 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

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 ( Helen told ??) tales of how it used to be,

Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.

With the butler and the maid and the servants three ( servantry ? ).

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 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 OF 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 sunshine’s 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 door 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

When I done quit hollerin' baby

I believe I shake 'em on down

Get my babe, won't be late,

You know by that I mean seconds late

Ah, must I holler,

Gonna go shoot her now...

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)

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 standing 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,

Darling please don't go.

 

CHORUS

 

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)

(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. Sure is fine. I blow my mind.

And the tears all go away now.

Yeah yeah

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

Oh, so good!

I've been to London, seen seven wonders

TRAMPLED UNDER FOOT

Grease me straight down, good electric

I could lay it on the road, mama, it ain't no trick

Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout

Ooh, trouble-free transmission, helps your oil's flow

Mama, let me pump your gas, mama, let me do it all

Talkin' 'bout love, huh, Talkin' 'bout love, ooh, Talkin' 'bout

Take that heavy metal underneath your hood

Baby, I could work all night, leave a big pile of tubes

Talkin' 'bout lo-ove, Talkin' 'bout lo-ove, Talkin' 'bout

Automobile club-covered, really built in style

Special is tradition, mama, let me feast my eyes

Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout

Factory air-conditioned, wind begins to rise

Guaranteed to run for hours, mama, and brand-new tires

Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout

Groovin' on the freeway, blazes on the road

>From now on my gasoline is even gonna conk your hair

Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout

I can't stop talkin' about, I can't stop talkin' about

Ooh, yeah-yeah, yes, ah, drive on

Ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yes, I'm comin' through

Come to me for service every hundred miles

Baby, let me check your valves, fix your overdrive

Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout

Ooh, yes, fully automatic, comes in any size

Makes me wonder what I did, before I got synchronized

Talkin' 'bout lo-ove, Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout

Ooh, feather-light suspension, coils just couldn't hold

I'm so glad I took a look inside your showroom doors

Talkin' 'bout love, Talkin' 'bout lo-oo-oh-ove, Talkin' 'bout

Oh yeah, oh yeah, Oh, I can't stop talkin' about love

I can't stop talkin' about love

Ooh, let me go in down, go in down, go in down, go in down, go in down, yes, I can't stop talkin' about

Ounheahhonhouh

 

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

Oh, I would share your load

Let me share your load

Ooh, let me share, share your load

And if you feel that you can't go on

In the light you will find the road

Hey, ah-oh, though the winds of change may blow around you

But that will always be so

Oh, whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa, when love is pain it can devour you

If you are never alone

I would share your load

I would share your load

Baby, let me, oh, let me

In the light

Everybody needs a light, whooh, yeah-yeah

Ooh, baby, in the light, in the light, in the light

Light, light, light, in the light

Everybody, come on now

 

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'

'll don't it make you wanna go on an' feel alright

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'

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,

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

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 X3

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

Ah, ah, ah...

Oh, nobody's fault but mine

Nobody's fault but mine, yeah

Trying to save my soul to light

Oh, it's nobody's fault but mine

Devil he told me to roll

The devil he told me to roll

How to roll the line tonight

Nobody's fault but mine

Ah, ah, ah ...

Somebody show me the (gun? door? gong?)

Somebody show me the ding dong ding dong

I will get down rolling tonight

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

 

CANDY STORE ROCK

Well, Oh baby baby, Don't you want a man like me?

Oh baby baby, Im just as sweet as anybody could be

Oh baby baby, I want to look to your eyes, of blue

(solo)

Yeah, Talk about you, Oh yeah, Talk about you

Ooh baby oh baby its alright, its alright

 Oh baby baby

Tastes so bad

Tastes so bad

Tastes so bad

Ohhh baby its alright, oh its alright

Ohhh baby its alright, oh its alright

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

Hey babe, Hey babe, Hey babe, I lost my way

Hey babe, Hey babe, I really, really did now.

Hey babe, Hey babe, I don't know where I'm gonna find it.

Hey babe, Hey babe, Do you wanna know,

o you really, really, wanna help me, yeah?

Let me tell you now, babe, Let me tell you

That it feels so good that it must be right

Now my babe, Let me tell you

That it feels so good that it must be right

Now my babe, Let me tell you

If it feels, if it feels, if it feels, if it feels so good,

so good, so good, Oh, yes.

 

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 in 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, I can break the golden rule

'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., I give to you girl

Idon't have to go by plane, I ain't gotto go by car

I don't care just where my darling is,

People I just don't care how far, I'm gonna crawl

I don't care if I got to go back home

I don't care what I got to stand to her back, I'm gonna crawl

I'm gonna move the car, baby, She give me good lovin

Yes I love her, I guess I love her, I wanna crawl

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'
