Close the door, put out the light
You know they wont be home tonight
The snow falls hard and dont you know?
The winds of Thor are blowing cold
Theyre wearing steel thats bright and true
They carry news that must get through
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, ooh
The snow drives back the foot thats slow
The dogs of doom are howling more
They carry news that must get through
To build a dream for me and you, oh
They choose the path where no-one goes
They hold no quarter
They ask no quarter
They hold no quarter
They ask no quarter
Oh!
The pain, the pain without quarter, oh yeah!
They ask no quarter
They give no quarter
Oh |
Theres a lady whos sure all that glitters is gold
And shes 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 shes buying a stairway to heaven
Theres 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, theres a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
Ooh, makes me wonder
Ooh, makes me wonder
Theres 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, really makes me wonder
And its 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 theres a bustle in your hedgerow, dont be alarmed, now
Its just a spring clean for the May queen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
Theres still time to change the road youre on
And it makes me wonder
Ohh, woah
Your head is humming and it wont go, in case you dont know
The pipers 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 everything 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 shes buying a stairway to heaven |
Hey lady, you got the love I need
Maybe more than enough
Oh darling, darling, darling
Walk a while with me
Ohh, youve got so much, so much, so much
Many have I loved, and many times been bitten
Many times Ive gazed along the open road
Many times Ive lied, and many times Ive listened
Many times Ive wondered how much there is to know
Many dreams come true, and some have silver linings
I live for my dream, and a pocket full of gold
Mellow is the man who knows what hеs been missing
Many, many men cant see the open road
Many is a word that only lеaves you guessing
Guessing bout a thing you really ought to know, oh, oh, oh, oh
Really ought to know
I really ought to know
Oh
You know I should, you know I should, you know I should, you know I should |

The leaves are falling all around, time I was on my way
Thanks to you, Im much obliged for such a pleasant stay
But now its time for me to go, the autumn moon lights my way
For now I smell the rain, and with it pain, and its headed my way
Ah, sometimes I grow so tired
But I know Ive got one thing I got to do
Ramble on, and nows the time, the time is now
To sing my song, Im going round the world, I gotta find my girl
On my way, Ive been this way ten years to the day
Ramble on, gotta find the queen of all my dreams
Got no time to for spreading roots
The time has come to be gone
And though Our health we drank a thousand times
Its time to ramble on
Ramble on, and now the time, the time is now
To sing my song, Im going round the world, I gotta find my girl
On my way, Ive been this way ten years to the day
I gotta ramble on, I gotta find the queen of all my dreams
I tell you no lie
Mines a tale that cant be told, my freedom I hold dear
How years ago in days of old, when magic filled the air
Twas 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, yeah
Ah, theres nothing I can do now
I guess Ill keep on
Ramblin, Im gonna shake
I gotta find my baby
Im gonna ramble on, sing my song
Gonna work my way, going round the world
Baby, baby
Do do do do do do do do, my baby
I cant stop this feeling in my heart
Every time I think about my baby I think we gots to part
Gotta keep on searching for my baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I gotta keep on searching for my baby
My, my, my, my, my, my, baby
I cant find my bluebird!
I listened to what my bluebird said, but I, I cant find my bluebird!

Been dazed and confused for so long its 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 abuse telling all of your lies
Run round, sweet baby, Lord, how they hypnotize
Sweet little baby, I dont know where youve been
Gonna love you, baby, here I come again
If youre going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If youre going to San Francisco
Youre gonna meet a lot of gentle people there
Every day I work so hard bringing home my hard earned pay
Try to love you, baby, but you push me away
Dont know where youre going, only know just where youve been
Sweet little baby, I want you again
Been dazed and confused for so long its not true
Wanted a woman, never bargained for you
Take it easy, baby, let them say what they will
Did your tongue wag so much when I sent you the bill? |
You said I was the only
With my lemon in your hand
Exhibition is your habit
Emotion second hand
Had to pull away to save me
Maybe next time around
And she said, dont you want it?
Dont you want cocaine, cocaine, cocaine?
Hadnt planned to, could not stand to
Try it, fry it, na na na na yeah
Heard a cry for mercy
In the city of the damned
Oh, oh, babe, damned
Down in the pits you go no lower
The next stops underground
Oh, hello underground
Wine and roses aint quite over
Fate deals a losing hand
And I said, didnt mean to
Did not mean to f-fail
You didnt plan it, you over-ran it
You want do it, you want to
You want do it when you want to
You want do it, do it when you want to
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
When you fake it, baby
Youre faking 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, do it
Do it when you wanna
Oh, I can have you, baby
But I dont know what to do, yeah
Sometime, baby, nothing I could do
On the balance of a crystal
Paying through the nose
And when they couldnt resist you
I thought youd go with the flow
And now your stage is empty
Bring down the curtain, baby please
Fold up your show
Hadnt planned to
Could not stand to fry in it
Hadnt planned it
I over-ran it, frying
For your life, for your life |

Walking in the park just the other day, baby
What do you, what do you think I saw?
Crowds of people sitting on the grass with flowers in their hair said
Hey, boy, do you wanna score?
And you know how it is?
I really dont know what time it was
Woah, oh, oh
So I asked them if I could stay a while
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, oh
He said that his friends would all drop by, ooh
Why dont 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 rusting
Ah! Not trying to fight it
You really dont care if they’re coming?
Oh, oh, oh
I know that its 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 dont care
Really dont care, dont care, really dont
Which, which way the pressure lies
So Ive decided what Im going to 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, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I really dont know, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Carry me back, carry me back
Carry me back, baby, where I come from
Whoa, whoa, oh

Hey, girl, stop what youre doing
Hey, girl, youll drive me to ruin
I dont know what it is that I like about you, but I like it so much, yeah

Communication breakdown

Drive me insane
Hey, yeah, I got something I think you ought to know
Ooh, babe, I wanna tell you that I love you so
I wanna hold you in my arms, yeah
Im never gonna let you go, cause I like your charms
Communication breakdown

Im having a nervous breakdown
Drive me insane
Communication breakdown
Its always the same
Im having a nervous breakdown
Drive me insane
Communication breakdown
Communication breakdown
Yeah yeah yeah yeah |
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 brightness, 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
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Still in their bliss unchallenged mighty fеast
Unending dances shadowed on thе day, oh
Within the wall, their daunting formless keep
Preserved their joy that 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
Ah, ah, ah, ah
How keen the storied hunters 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
But no one there had heaven within their reach
Im singing
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh
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 couldnt stay, oh
I couldnt stand it another day, another day
Another day, another day
Touched by the timely coming
Roused from the keepers 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
Take of the fruit
But guard the seed |
Oh shes my baby
Let me tell you why
Hey, she drives me crazy
Shes 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
Aint no other like my baby
I can break the golden rule
Cause I get down on my knees
Oh, I pray that love wont die
And if I always try to please
I dont know the reason why, yeah
If she would come back, only stay with me
Every little bit, every little bit
Every little bit of my love, I give to you girl
Every little bit, every little bit
Every little bit, every, every little bit of my love
Hit me!
I dont have to go by plane
I aint gotta go by car
I dont care just where my darling is
People, I just dont care how far

Im gonna crawl, now
I dont care if I got to go back home
I dont care what I got to stand again, babe

Woo, yes, I love her
I guess I love her
Yes, I love her
I wanna crawl |
Walking in the park just the other day, baby
What do you, what do you think I saw?
Crowds of people sitting on the grass with flowers in their hair said
Hey, boy, do you wanna score?
And you know how it is?
I really dont know what time it was
Woah, oh, oh
So I asked them if I could stay a while
I didnt 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, oh
He said that his friends would all drop by, ooh
Why dont 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 rusting
Ah! Not trying to fight it
You really dont care if theyre coming?
Oh, oh, oh
I know that its all a state of mind, ooh
If you go down in the streets
Today, baby, you better
You better open your eyes, oh
Folk down there really dont care
Really dont care, dont care, really dont
Which, which way the pressure lies
So Ive decided what Im gonna do now
So Im packing my bags for the Misty Mountains
Where the spirits go now
Over the hills where the spirits fly, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh....
I really dont know, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I really dont know, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I really dont know |
Its been a long time since I rock and rolled
Its 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
Its been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Yes, it has
Its been a long time since The Book of Love
I cant count the tears of a life with no love
Carry me back, carry me back
Carry me back, baby, where I come from
Whoa, whoa, oh
Its been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Oh! Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight
Making vows that just cant work right
Oh yeah, open your arms, opens your arms
Open your arms, baby, let my love come running in!
Yeah!
Its been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Its been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time |
I got the key to the highway, yeah
Billed out and bound to go
I gotta keep walking this highway
Walking most too slow
I eat my breakfast in California
I eat my dinner in Caroline
Woo, I’m gonna keep on
Keep on walking this highway, yeah
Til I reach the end of the line
Walk on, yeah
Show the movie, yeah
Lordy mama keeps on shining, shining
And the good, good, good Lord, heavens above
Everybody know, life aint, aint worth livin
If you ain’t with the one you love
So trouble in mind, yeah
Lordy, mama, I’m blue, yeah
And I won’t, I won’t, I won’t be blue always
Oh yeah, the sun gon shine
Sun gonna shine in my backdoor
Some on rainy day, oh yeah |
It was an April morning
When they told us we should go
And as I turned to you, you smiled at me
How could we say no?
With all the fun to have
To live the dreams we always had
Oh, the songs to sing
When we at last return again
Sending off a glancing kiss
To those who claim they know
Below the streets that steam and hiss
The devils 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
At last the birds have flown
Shackles of commitments fell
In piеces on the ground
Oh, to ride thе wind
To tread the air above the din
Oh, to laugh aloud
Dancing as we fought the crowd, yeah
To seek the man whose pointing hand
The giant step unfolds
To guide us from the curving path
That turns our feet to 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
Oooh, yeah
Days went by when you and I
Bathed in eternal summers glow
As far away and distant
Our mutual child did grow
Oh, the sweet refrain
Soothes the soul and calms the pain
Oh, Albion remains
Sleeping now to rise again
Wandering and wandering
What place to rest the search
The mighty arms of Atlas
Hold the heavens from the Earth
For the mighty arms of Atlas
Hold the heavens from the Earth
From the Earth, Earth
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...
Oh oh oh oh
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...
Ooh... |
Ahh, ooh, ahh, ahh
Oh, I cant quit you, babe
I think Im gonna put you down for awhile
I said I cant quit you, babe
I think I wanna put you down for awhile
I said you messed up my happy home
You made me mistreat my only child
Said you know I love you, baby
My love for you I could never hide
Oh, you know I love you, babe
My love for you I could never hide
Oh, when I see you near me, babe
I know you are my one desire, yeah
I love the way you do me, baby
I dont know what it is
Oh, what you doing to be babe?
Show it, show it, show it, show it, show it, show it, show it
Aint nothing but it
Ahh, ahh
Thank you very much, and welcome to Paris |
Oh, baby, its crying 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 rivers red
Ah, baby, in my head
Theres a funny feeling going on
I dont 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 rivers run dry, baby, how would you feel?
Craze, baby, the rainbows end
Mm, baby, its just a den for those who hide
Who hide their love to depths of life
And ruin dreams that we all knew so, babe
And when the owls cry in the night
And baby, when the pines begin to cry
Oh, baby, baby, how do you feel?
If thе rivers run dry, baby, how do you feel?
Ah, ah...
Baby, how do you feel?
Ooh yeah, brave I еndure
Ooh yeah, strong shields and lore
They cant hold the wrath of those who walk
And the boots of those who march
Baby, through the roads of time so long ago
Ooh, yeah
Ooh, ooh yeah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ooh, hoo
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ah |
Weve done four already but now were 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
Got no time to pack my bags, my foots outside the door
I got a date, I cant be late, for the high hopes hailla ball
Oh ho
Oh yeah
Singing to an ocean, I can hear the oceans roar
Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more, more!
Singing about good things and the sun that lights the day
I used to sing on the mountains, has the ocean lost its way?
I dont know
Oh-oh yeah
Na nana na na na na na na na na na na na na
Na nana na na na na na na na na na na na na
Na nana na na na na na na na na na na na na
Na nana na na na na na na na na na na na na
Sitting round singing songs until the night turns into day
Used to sing on the mountains, but the mountains washed away
Now Im singing all my songs to the girl who won my heart
She is only three years old and its a real fine way to start
Oh yeah
It sure is fine
I blow my mind
When the tears are going down
Yeah, yeah
Oh, so good! |
And if I say to you tomorrow
Take my hand, child, come with me
Its to a castle I will take you
Where whats 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 wont blow, you really shouldnt go
It only goes to show
That you will be mine, by taking our time
Oh-oh
And if you say to me tomorrow
Oh, what fun it all would be
Then whats to stop us, pretty baby
But what is and what should never be?
Catch the wind, see us spin, sail away, leave today
Way up high in the sky
But the wind wont blow, you really shouldnt go
It only goes to show
That you will be mine, by taking our time
Ahh
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
Catch the wind, see us spin, sail away, leave today
Way up high in the sky
But the wind wont blow, you really shouldnt go
It only goes to show
That you will be mine, by taking our time
Oh, bum, bum, bum
The wind wont blow and we really shouldnt go
And it only goes to show
Catch the wind, were gonna see it spin, were going to... sail, leave today
Do do do, bop bop a do-oh
My my my my my my, yeah
Everybody I know seems to know me well
But theyre never gonna know that I move like hell
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Oh lord
Baby, baby, babe |
Lyrics for this song have yet to be released. Please check back once the song has been released. |
Oh, baby
Well. theres a light in your eye that keeps shining
Like a star that cant wait for the night
I hate to think Ive been blinded, baby
Why cant I see you tonight?
And the warmth of your smile starts a-burning
And the thrill of your touch gives me fright
And Im shaking so much, really yearning
Why dont you show up, make it all right?
Yeah, its all right
And if you promised youd love so completely
And you said you would always be true
You swore that you never would leave me, baby
Whatever 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 bеlieve me, baby
Im standing hеre feeling blue
Yeah, Im blue
Now I will stand in the rain on the corner
Ill watch the people go shuffling downtown
Another ten minutes no longer
And then Im turning around, around
The clock on the walls 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, found
Light of the love that I found
Light of the love that I found
Oh, that I found
Hey, babe!
Ooh! Hands on the clock
Just don’t seem to stop when I’m thinking it over
Ooh! Tired of the light
I just don’t seem to find
Gotta get away, get away
Oh, ooh-ooh! I see it in my dreams
But I just don’t seem to be
Ive got to get all, gotta get it all
Gotta get it all, I’ve got to get it all
Ooh, now my body is starting to quiver
And the palms of my hands getting wet, oh
Ive got no reason to doubt you, baby
Its all a terrible mess
And Ill run in the rain till Im breathless
When Im breathless, Ill run till I drop, hey
The thoughts of a fools kind of careless
Im just a fool waiting on the wrong block, oh yeah
Oh, oh-oh
Light of the love that I found
Light of the love that I found
Light of the love that I
Light of the love that I found
Light of the, hey, eh, light of the, hey, eh
Light of the love that I found
Light of the love that I found |
Hey fellas, have you heard the news?
You know that Annies back in town
It wont take long, just watch and see
How the fellas lay their money down
Her style is new, but the face the same
As it was so long ago
But from her eyes, a different smile
Like that of one who knows
Well, its been ten years or 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 Ill just keep on rolling along
With the grace of the Lord above
People talking all around
About the way you left me flat
I dont 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
Its the way you call me by another guys name
When I try to make love to you, yeah
But it aint no use
Mmm, work so hard I couldnt unwind
Get some money saved
Abuse my love a thousand times
However hard I tried
Heartbreaker; your time has come
Cant take your evil way
Go away, Heartbreaker
Heartbreaker!
Heartbreaker! |
Been working from seven
To eleven every night
Really makes life a drag
I dont think thats right
Ive really been the biggest fool
Baby, what I could do now
Cause I love you, baby
How I love you, baby
How I love you, baby
How I love you, yeah
Since Ive been loving you, baby
Im about to lose, lose, yeah, my worried mind
But baby, since Ive been loving you, yeah
Im about to lose my worried mind, oh yeah
Evrybody tells me that
That you didnt mean no good
But I really helped you, darling
I did the best, I did the best, I really did the best I could, yeah
So now Im gonna tell you what Im gonna do, yeah
Im gonna stop my cryin, stop my cryin over you, yeah
Im leaving you darling
It breaks my heart, yeah, yeah
Since Ive been loving you, baby
Im, Im, Im, Im about to lose my worried mind, oh
Hey
Ive been crying
My tears; they fell like rain
I hear them fallin, fallin, fallin
I hear them fallin, fallin
Ahh
You build my hopes so high
Baby, babe, you let me down so low
I gotta tell you, I gotta tell you
I just dont know, I dont know which way to go, oh
Cause youre a little bitty girl, yes, you are
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know, and I know
You dont mean me no harm, baby
But I, I need you, I need you, I need you
Be mine, ah
Since Ive been loving you
Im about to lose, about to lose my worried mind
Oh
Baby, since Ive been loving you
Im about to lose my worried mind |
I dont know how Im going to tell you
I cant play with you no more
I dont know how Im gonna do what mama told me
My friend, the boy next door
I cant believe what people saying
Youre gonna let your hair hang down
Im satisfied to sit here working all day long
Youre in the darker side of town
And when Im out I see you walking
Why dont your eyes see me
Could it be youve found another game to play
What did mama say to me?
Thats the way
Oh, thats the way it ought to be
Yeah, yeah, mama say
Thats the way it ought to stay, yeah, yeah, ooh-ooh
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river
And werent 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 dont know what to say about it
When all you ears have turned away
But nows the time to look and look again at what you see
Is that the way it ought to stay?
Thats the way
Thats the way it ought-ta be
Oh, dont you know now, mama said
Thats the way its gonna stay, yeah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah |
I was burned in the heat of the moment
Though it couldnt been the heat of the day
When I learned how my time had been wasted
Tear fell as I turned away
Now Ive got friends who will give me their shoulder
When I should happen to fall
Time and his bride growing older
Ive got friends who will give me fuck all
Lalala, yeah
Lalala, my baby
Lalala, yeah
Lalala
Corner of Bleecker and nowhere
In the land of not quite day
A shiver runs down my backbone
Face in the mirror turns grey
So looked round to hitch up the reindeer
Searching hard trying to brighten the day
I turned around to look for the snowman
To my surprise hed melted away
Lalala, yeah
Lalala, my baby
Lalala, yeah
Lalala
As the moon and the stars call the order
Inside my tides dance the ebb and sway
The sun in my souls sinking lower
While the hope in my hands turns to clay
I dont ask that my fields full of clover
I dont moan at opportunitys door
And if you ask my advice, take it slower
Then your storyd be your finest reward
Lalala, yeah
Lalala, my baby
Lalala, yeah
Lalala, now do it
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Lost on the path to attainment
Search in the eyes of the wise
When I bled from the heart of the matter
I started bleeding without a disguise
Now everythings fine under heaven
Now and then youve got to take time to pause
When youre down on the ground, dont be messing around
Or youll land in a boat without oars
Lalala, yeah
Lalala, my baby
Lalala, yeah
Lalala
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh |
Yeah
One time love, 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 peeked through
John Cameron with Suzanna
He kissed the whiskers, left and right
Whiskers
Now, now, now, fright subsides
Out at a hotel in the quarter
Our friends check in to pass the night
Now love gets hot, but fire preceded water
Poor whiskеrs set that room alight
Whiskers
Down on Bourbon street, you know its right
You can see my friend
Thеy run around all through the night
Most everywhere
Until the closets bare
Run for the razor burn
Doin up my hair
New Orleans queens
Sure know how to schmooze it
Maybe for some that seems alright
When I step out
Strut down with my sugar
Shed best not talk like Barry White!
One time love, 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
Whiskers |
Dancing days are here again
As the summer evenings grow
I got my flower, I got my power
I got a woman who knows
I said its alright, you know it’s alright
I guess its all in my heart
Youll be my only, my one and only
Is that the way it should start?
Crazy ways are evident
By the way you wearing your clothes
Sipping booze is precedent
As the evening starts to glow
You know it’s alright, I said its alright
You know its all in my heart
Youll be my only, my one and only
Is that the way it should start?
Dig
You told your mama Id get you home
But you didnt say that I got no car
I saw a lion, he was standing alone
With a tadpole in a jar
You know its alright
I said its alright
I guess it’s all in my heart, heart, heart, heart
You’ll be my only
My one and only
Is that the way it should start?
So dancing days are here again
As the summer evenings grow
You are my flower, you are my power
You are my woman who knows
I said its alright
You know it’s alright
You know its all in my heart
Youll be my only, yes
My one and only, yes
Is that the way it should start?
I know it is, yeah |

Ahh, ahh |
Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face
And stars fill my dream
Im a traveler of both time and space
To be where I have been
To sit with elders of the gentle race
This world has seldom seen
They talk of days for which they sit and wait
All will be revealed
Talk in song from tongues of lilting grace
Sounds caress my ear
And not a word I heard could I relate
The story was quite clear
Oh, baby, I been blind
Oh, yeah, mama, there aint no denyin
Oh, ooh yes, I been blind
Mama, mama, aint no denyin, no dеnyin
All I see turns to brown
As the sun burns the ground
And my eyеs fill with sand
As I scan this wasted land
Try to find, try to find the way I feel
Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace
Like sorts inside a dream
Leave the path that led me to that place
Yellow desert stream
Like Shangri-la beneath the summer moon
I will return again
As the dust that floats finds you
Were moving through Kashmir
Oh, father of the four winds fill my sails
Cross the sea of years
With no provision but an open face
Along the straits of fear
Oh, when I want, when Im on my way, yeah
And my feet wear my fickle way to stay
Ooh, yeah yeah, oh, yeah yeah
But Im down oh, yeah yeah, oh, yeah
Yeah, but Im down, so down
Ooh, my baby, oh, my baby
Let me take you there
Come on, oh let me take you there
Let me take you there |
You said I was the only
With my lemon in your hand
Exhibition is your habit
Emotion second hand
Had to pull away to save me
Maybe next time around
And she said, dont you want it?
Dont you want cocaine, cocaine, cocaine?
Hadnt planned to, could not stand to
Try it, fry it, na na na na, yeah
Heard a cry for mercy
In the city of the damned
Oh, oh, baby, damned
In the pits you go no lower
The next stops underground
Oh, hello underground
Wine and roses aint quite over
Fate deals a losing hand
And I said, didnt mean to
Did not mean to f-fail
You didnt plan it, you over-ran it
You want do it, you want to
You want do it when you want to
You want do it, do it when you want to
When you blow it, babe
You got to blow it right
Oh baby, if you fake it, mama
Baby, fake with all your might
Whеn you fake it, mama
Please fakе it right for yourself, babe
When you fake it, baby
Youre faking 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, do it
Do it when you wanna
Oh, I can have you, baby
But I dont know what to do, yeah
Sometime, baby, nothing I could do
On the balance of a crystal
Paying through the nose
And when they couldnt resist you
I thought youd go with the flow
And now your stage is empty
Bring down the curtain, baby please
Fold up your show
Hadnt planned to
Could not stand to fry in it
Hadnt planned it
I over-ran it, frying
For your life, for your life |
In the evening
When the day is done
Im looking for a woman
But the girl dont come
So dont let her
Play you for a fool
She dont show no pity, baby
She dont make no rules
Oh, oh, I need your love
I need your love
Oh, I need your love
I just got to have
So dont you let her
Oh, get under your skin
Its only bad luck and trouble
From the day that you begin
I hear you crying in the darkness
Dont ask nobodys help
Aint no pockets full of mercy, baby
Because you can only blame yourself
Oh, I need your love
Oh, oh, I need your love, ooh yeah
Oh, I need your love
I got to have
Oh, its simple
All the pain that you go through
You can turn away from fortune, fortune
Because thats all thats left to you
Hey, its lonely at the bottom
Man, its dizzy at the top
But if youre standing in the middle
Aint no way youre gonna stop
Oh, I need your love
Oh, oh, I need your love
Oh, oh, I need your love
I got to have
Ooh, whatever
That your days may bring
No use hiding in a corner
Because that wont change a thing
If youre dancing in the doldrums
One day soon, its got to stop, its got to stop
When youre the master of the off-chance
When you dont expect a lot
Oh, oh, I need your love
I need your love
Ooh, I need your love
I got to have, I got to have
Baby, I got to have your love
I got to have
Babe, I got to have your love
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I got to have your love
Just got to
I just got to |
Well, I just got into town today
To find my girl whos 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 couldnt 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 Ill never go to Texas anymore
Now my babys gone, I dont know what to do
She took my love and walkеd right out the door
And if I ever find that girl, I know onе thing for sure
Im 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 hanging round for more, ah, oh
Now my babys gone, I dont 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
Im 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 rocking bands
But they just rolled my doll right out the door
Oh yeah, they just rolled my doll right out the door
Why, well, they just rolled my doll right out the door! |
Baby, when you walk that sweet walk
Oh, you walk it good, yes you walk it good
Baby, when you talk that sweet talk
It sounds so good, oh so good
With a little bit of concentration
And a little bit of helping 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-shaking, shaking
And a little bit of fly right down
Woo, just 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 Im so glad, so glad, so glad, so glad
And Im good, oh, so good
With a little bit of, oh, concentration
And a little bit of helping hands, yeah
And a little bit of, oh way, I like this
It makes me feel, it makes mе feel, baby
Im back on the ground
Oh yes, it sure doеs
It makes me feel back on the ground
Suarez! Suarez!
Baby, baby, youre back on the ground! Yeah
Im feeling good child
Im feeling good child
Im feeling good child
Im feeling good child
Down on the ground
Sha la la la

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while
I think I see my friends coming, riding many a mile
Friends, 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 couldnt get no silver, I couldnt get no gold
You know that were too damn poor to keep you from the gallows pole
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while

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 many a 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 mad man
Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile
Tell me that Im free to ride
Ride for many a mile, mile, mile
Oh yes, you got a fine sister
She warmed my blood from cold
She warmed my blood to boiling hot
To keep you from the gallows pole, pole, pole, pole, yeah, yeah
Your brother brought me silver and your sister warmed my soul
But now I laugh and pull so hard, see you swinging on the gallows pole, yeah

Aw yeah! |
Her face is cracked from smiling
All the fears that shes been hiding
And it seems pretty soon everybodys gonna know
And her voice is sore from shouting
Cheering winners who are losing
And she worries if their days are few
And soon theyll have to go
My, my, my, Im so happy
Im gonna join the band
We 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 its 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
My, my, my, Im so happy
Im gonna join the band
We gonna sing and dance in celebration
We are the promised land
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 youre gonna get there
Though it takes a little longer
And when you see it in the distance
You will wring your hands and moan
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
If you walk youre gonna get there
Though it takes a little longer
And when you see it in the distance
You will wring your hands |
Hey fellas, have you heard the news?
You know that Annies back in town
It wont take long, just watch and see
How the fellas lay their money down
Her style is new, but the face the same
As it was so long ago
But from her eyes, a different smile
Like that of one who knows
Well, its been ten years or 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 Ill just keep on rolling along
With the grace of the Lord above
People talking all around
About the way you left me flat
I dont 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
Its the way you call me by another guys name
When I try to make love to you, yeah
I try to make love but it aint no use
Give it to me, give it
Work so hard I couldnt unwind
Get some money saved
Abuse my love a thousand times
However hard I tried
Heartbreaker; your time has come
Cant take your evil way
Go away, heartbreaker
Heartbreaker!
Heartbreaker!
Heart! |

Now let me tell you about my girl
I open up a newspaper and what do I see?
Ah, ah

Let me tell you, when she talks, she talks
And when she looks me in my eye
Shes my baby, Lord, I wanna make her mine, baby
Ooh, tell me baby what you want me to do
And you want me to love you, love some other men?

Shes the one that really makes me whirl and twirl, and
Shes the kind of lover that makes me feel the whole world, and
