DOLLY DAGGER
Here comes Dolly Dagger
Her love's so heavy, gonna make you stagger
Dolly Dagger
She drinks the blood from a jagged edge
Aw, drink up baby

Been riding broomsticks since she was fifteen
Blowin' out all the other witches on the scene
She got a bull whip just as long as your life
Her tongue can even scratch the soul out of the devil's wife
Well I seen her in action at the Player's Choice
Turn all the love men into doughnut boys
Hey, red hot mama you better step aside
This chicks gonna turn you to a block of ice
Look out!

Here comes Dolly Dagger,
Her love's so strong gonna make you stagger, baby
Dolly Dagger
She drinks her blood from a jagged edge
Uh, right on
Drink up, baby
Hey!

Yeah, look at old burnt out Superman, tryin' to shoot his dust on the sun
Captain Karma kids, they're dead on the run
Oh the words of love, ah, do they ever touch Dolly Brown?
Better get some highway an' clear outta town

Here comes Dolly Dagger,
Her love's so heavy gonna make you stagger
Dolly Dagger
She ain't satisfied 'til she gets what she's after
She drinks the blood from a jagged edge
Better watch out baby; here comes your master

Alright
Watch out Devon
You give me a little bit of that heaven

Dolly, heavy mama, get it on, get it on, get it on
Dolly, heavy mama, get it on, get it on, get it on
Dolly, heavy mama, get it on, get it on, get it on
Dolly, heavy mama, get it on, get it on, get it on
Get it on, get it on, get it on, get it on, get it on, get it on

Woo, yeah, yeah, yeah

Woo, yeah, yeah, yeah...

EARTH BLUES
Well, I see hands and attesting faces

reachin’ up but not quite touching the Promised Land

Well, I taste tears and a whole lot of previous years wasted,

saying “Lord please give us a helping hand”
(Lord Lord Lord)

Lord, there’s got to be some changes
(Lord Lord Lord)

Gonna be a whole lot of re-arranges
(Lord Lord Lord)

You better hope love is the answer
(Lord Lord Lord)

Yeah, it better come before the summer

Well, everybody can hear the sound of freedom’s beating heart

Sirens flashing with earth and rockets stoning

You better love me like it’s gonna be the last time
and tell the child to bury Daddy’s old clothes
(Love love love)

Yeah, they’re talking about getting together, yeah,
(Love love love)
together for love, love, love
(Love love love)

You better hope love is the answer, baby
(Love love love)
I think you better hope it comes before the summer

Everybody, every Sister, every Mama to feel the light, it’s shining bright, baby

Everybody, we got to live together, oh

Right on baby

Feel those Earth Blues coming at you

Don’t let your imagination take you by surprise

A Queen and me I, one day, visualise

My head in the cloud, my feet on the pavement

Don’t get too stoned, please remember you’re a man
(Love love love)

Lord, there’s got to be some changes
(Love love love)

Living together’s gonna be a lot of re-arranges
(Love love love)

You better be ready, Lord, my Lord
(Love love love)

Just hope love comes before the summer

Everybody, got to feel the light

You gotta feel the light, baby

Everybody, we gotta live together

Keep it together, right on together, oh

All standing together for the Earth Blues coming at you baby
Right on

Feel those Earth Blues coming at you

Yeah, yeah let me hear it

PALI GAP

(Instrumental)

ROOM FULL OF MIRRORS
I used to live in a room full of mirrors
All I could see was me
Then I take my spirit and I smash my mirrors
And now the whole world is here for me to see
I said the whole world is here for me to see
Now I’m searching for my love to be

Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Bbroken glass was solvin’ my brain
Cut and screamin’ crowdin’ in my head
A broken glass was loud in my brain
It used to fall on my dreams and cut me in my bed
It used to fall on my dreams and cut me in my bed
I said making love was strange in my bed

Yeah, yeah, yeah...

All right
Ooo ooo
Yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
No place to stumble
No place to fall
Can't find war
No where at all
See nothing but sunshine
All around

Love comes shinin' over the mountains
Love comes shinin' over the sea
Love will shine on my baby
Then I'll know who's exactly for me
Lord, I'll know who'll be for me

In the meantime, which is a groovy time

STAR SPANGLED BANNER

(Instrumental)

LOOK OVER YONDER
Look over yonder, here come the blues
Pretending they're good guys powered by fools
I can see 'em comin'
Wearing a blue armored coat
You're sittin' there with your violence
Hittin' wrong notes

Look over yonder, he's comin' my way
When he's around,
I never have a happy day

(You even bust my guitar strings)

Look over yonder...

Look over yonder
Well, he's talkin' to my babe
They found my peace pipe on her
Now they're draggin' her away
Lord knows we don't need a devil like him beatin' us around
Well, he's knockin' on my door
Now my house is tumbling down

Don't you come no closer
The path is getting colder
Get away from my door, babe
Unless you wanna start another war

Look over yonder...

HEAR MY TRAIN A COMIN'

Well I hear my train a comin'
I hear my train, hear my train a comin'

I wait around train station,
waitin' for that train
to take me away
boy, take me the hell out a here
take me from this lonesome town

Too bad you don't love me no more baby
too bad your people put me down
put me down
Tears burnin' me
Tears burnin' me in my soul
a whole lot of brothers gettin'
tears burnin' me in my heart
tears burnin' me down in my soul

Too bad you don't love me no more baby
too bad your people, lord, they ran me through
hey hey hey
Hear my train a comin'
Hear my train a comin'
I hear freedom comin'
I hear my train a comin'

I got to leave this town
lord I got to leave this town
I gotta go on the road right now baby
lord I gotta be a voodoo child baby
Go out of your world and become a magic boy yeah
come back and buy this town
come back and buy this town
give it all give it all give it all to you

Yeah baby, make love to me one more time
and lord, I got to give it all to you
and all my love is for you
I got to groove to ya
well I hear my train a comin'
hear my train a comin'
hear my train a comin'
hear my train a comin'

Hear my train a comin'
Lord I hear my train a comin'
one of these days i got to be free
hear my train a comin'
lord I can hear my train comin'

Hear my train a comin'

HEY BABY (NEW RISING SUN)
Hey baby where are you coming from?

Well she looked at me and smiled

And looked into space and said "I'm coming from the land of the new rising sun."

Then I said "Hey baby where are you trying to go to?"

Then she said "I'm going to spin and spread around

peace of mind and a whole lotta love to you and you

Hey girl I'd like to come along

Yes, I'd like to come along

Would you like to come along? She asked me

Yes take me along right now
