SECOND MOVEMENT: VOICE, BASS
All I wish,
That I wasn't here,
Don't you know?
I've got a rotten feeling,
Of dizzy heights,
It's what they want to know,
Oh, well here I go,
Oh, what a funny show.

Take my time,
It's the odds that count,
Who am I?
What a silly sound,
Hold my breath,
Talk of sudden death,
Rhyme and reason must prevail,
I need a glass of ale.

Still I've a got a feeling now,
No need for me to tell you how,
It's kind of easy now,
Woh-oh like rock'n'roll.

Boogaloo and now I feel alright,
It's funky and it's out of sight,
Feeling good, feeling right,
It's gonna be alright.

Now I know where I'm going,
Now I know where it's at,
Can I treat you alone?

SPEED KING
Good golly said little Miss Molly
When she was rocking in the house of blue light
Tutti Frutti was oh so rooty
When she was rocking to the east and west
Lucille, oh so real
When she didn't do her daddy's will
Come on baby, drive me crazy, do it, do it

I'm a speed king, you gotta hear me sing
I'm a speed king, see me fly

Saturday night and I just got paid
Gonna fool about ain't gonna save
Some people gonna rock, some people gonna roll
Gonna have a party to save my soul
Hard headed woman, soft hearted man
They been causing trouble since it all began
Take a little rice, take a little beans
Gonna rock and roll down to New Orleans

I'm a speed king, you gotta hear me sing
I'm a speed king, see me fly

Good golly said little Miss Molly
When she was rocking in the house of blue light
Tutti Frutti was oh so rooty
When she was rocking in the east and west
Hard headed woman, soft hearted man
They been causing trouble since it all began
Take a little rice, take a little beans
Gonna rock and roll down to New Orleans

I'm a speed king, you gotta hear me sing
I'm a speed king, see me fly

BLOODSUCKER
Gotta black breast Chinese eyes
Got an English brain that's gonna make me wise
Got a long story that I wanna tell
To a rhythm that I know so well
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery, but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't want to know
Oh, no no no

Take a hold now if you can
Take a lesson from a hard lovin' man
I'm a long way from where I wanna go
Guess I'll stay a while I really love you so
How's about another sip of all that wine you got
Take a tip from me and give it here I'll drink the lot
I'm not a winey, I'm a puttin' on a show
Oh, no no no

You really really grab me but I've gotta move
Before they know I'm here and spread the news
Maybe in while when I've moved around
I can find a way to pay you back your twenty pounds
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery, but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't want to know
Oh, no no no

CHILD IN TIME
Sweet child in time, you'll see the line
The line that's drawn between, the good and the bad
See the blind man, shooting at the world
Bullets flying, taking toll
If you've been bad, Oh Lord I bet you have
And you've not been hit by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes, and bow your head
And wait for the ricochet

Sweet child in time, you'll see the line
The line that's drawn between, the good and the bad
See the blind man, shooting at the world
Bullets flying, taking toll
If you've been bad, Oh Lord I bet you have
And you've not been hit by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes, and bow your head
And wait for the ricochet

FLIGHT OF THE RAT
Spread the word around
The rat's leaving town
The message is a song
The misery is gone

Once I had a dream
To sing before the queen
She didn't want to know
She wouldn't see the show

Oh, what a fright
I couldn't do it right
Oh, what a night
Oh, what a sight

Mystic demons fly
All about the sky
With memories of a clown
The saddest show in town, oh yes
When I was seventeen
My mother said to me
Be careful what you touch
You shouldn't take so much

I blew my mind
She was so kind
I could have cried, oh no

Ooh, in my mind
I had to find
A kind of new way
Of being oh so cool
Like a blue blooded
Well studded
English fool

Speak about the past
Times are changing fast
Once I was so weak
I couldn't even speak, not a word

Shaking out a curse
Nothing could be worse
Walking through the door
Who could ask for more

Now I'm free
And I can see
And I am me
Yes I am free

Spread the word around
The rat's leaving town
The message is a song
The misery is gone

Shaking out a curse
Nothing could be worse
Walking through the door
Who could ask for more

Now I'm free
And I can see
And I am me
Yes I am free
Oh, please stay away

INTO THE FIRE
Take the trouble to decide the things you do
Will not be the things that don't appeal to you
See the mess your makin', can't you see your fakin'
Gonna make it hard for you, you're gonna
Into the fire

Turn on to the mandrake that was given to you
See if you can make it like the others do
Feel the blood a knockin', when you're finger poppin'
Gonna make it hard for you, you're gonna
Into the fire

Stop your bleeding mind before it's over and done
Listen very closely to the message I've sung
Feel the blood a knockin', when you're finger poppin'
Gonna get a message through, you're gonna
Into the fire

LIVING WRECK
You came along for a weekend
But you only stayed for one night
You took off your hair, you pulled out your teeth
Oh I almost died of fright

You'd better do something for your own sake
Yes it's a shame
Ah you know you're a living wreck

You said you were a virgin
Full of promise and mystery
But I knew that you would bring me down
'Cos ev'ryone calls you big G

You'd better do something for your own sake
Yes it's a shame
Ah you know you're a living wreck

You said you're gonna love me
You said you're gonna set me free
But I knew that you would bring me down
And cause me misery

You'd better do something for your own sake
Yes it's a shame
Ah you know you're a living wreck

HARD LOVIN' MAN
Break my back with hard lovin'
Take my hand and keep movin'
Don't slow down we're nearly there now
Oh oh oh oh, can you stand the pain
I'm a hard lovin' man

What's your name, it's alright now
Trick or treat, we're uptight now
Wanna feel ya, I wanna hear ya
Oh oh oh oh, here we go again
I'm a hard lovin' man

Come back here, it's not over
Can't you see, there's still time girl
I can last, make if fast now
Oh oh oh oh, gotta catch a train
I'm a hard lovin' man

BLACK NIGHT
Black night is not right
I don't feel so bright
I don't care to sit tight
Maybe I'll find on the way down the line that I'm free
Free to be me
Black night is a long way from home

I don't need a dark tree
I don't want a rough sea
I can't feel, I can't see
Maybe I'll find on the way down the line that I'm free
Free to be me
Black night is a long way from home

Black night, black night
I don't need black night
I can't see, dark night
Maybe I'll find on the way down the line that I'm free
Free to be me
Black night is a long way from home

CRY FREE
Pass your mother, lose your brother
Be a lover too
Well, all together, make it better
You gotta cry free

Bridges burnin', eyes are turnin'
Now they're learnin' fools
They're gonna talk it over
While they're talkin'
You gotta cry free

Cry free, cry free

Fists are shakin', homes are breakin'
Know what's makin' blues
Oh, true convictions, satisfaction
While you cry free

FIRST MOVEMENTE: MODERATO-ALLEGRO
(Instrumental)

SECOND MOVEMENT: ANDANTE
How can I see when the light is gone out?
How can I hear when you speak so silently?
More than enough is never too much
Hold out a hand I'm so out of touch
Do unto me as your heart would have you do
Words in my head can I get the message through?
Sword in my hand can cut through the wood
Peace in my heart can soften the mood

What shall I do when they stand smiling at me?
Look at the floor and be oh, so cool
Oh, so cool?

How shall I know when to start singing my song?
What shall I do if they all go wrong?
What shall I do?

What shall I do when they stand laughing at me?
Walk through the door and be oh so cool?

How shall I know when to stop singing my song?
What shall I do when it all goes wrong

THIRD MOVEMENT: VIVACE-PRESTO

CHASING SHADOWS
Chasing shadows over my walls
With myself hardly sleeping
Dwarfs and giants twenty feet tall
Fill the room with their creeping
Sounds of breathing sharpen my ears
Then they fade into nothing
Someone's laughter out in the street
Fills the night with their loving

I feel the ice in my head
Running his hands through my bed
Not even dreaming I seem to be dead
Colours of yellow and colours of red

All I'm asking some secret voice
Is to lead me to darkness
I'm so tired dawn never comes
I just lie in the shadows

BLIND
I see reflections in the water
Autumn colours, summer's daughter
And as as the year is growing older
I see winter on my shoulder
I stand in the haze
Watching stormy ripples grow
On my own

Never knew you were needed
'Til I found myself standing here alone

And in the water, such a sad face
Slowly drowning, such a sad face
If only I could change the seasons
Like a poet, I've my reasons
It started to snow, in the middle of July
Wonder why

Never did understand you
My sorrow is hanging in the grey sky

In the summer days we flew to the sun
On melting wings
But the seasons change so fast
Leave us all behind
Blind

But then the stone fell on the water
Putting end to summer's daughter
And me, I turn away remembering
All the seasons, such a sad thing
It started to rain in the middle of the sun
Winter's begun

Never did understand you
My sorrow is hanging in the grey sky

In the summer days we flew to the sun
On melting wings
But the seasons change so fast
Leave us all behind
Blind

LALENA
When the sun goes to bed
That's the time your raise your head
That's your lot in life Lalena
Can't blame you Lalena

Arty Tart, la de da
Can your part get much sadder
That's your lot in life Lalena
Can't blame you Lalena

Run you hand through your hair
Paint your face with despair
That's your lot in life Lalena
I can't blame you Lalena

When the sun goes to bed
That's the time your raise your head
That's your lot in life Lalena
Can't blame you Lalena

Arty Tart Oh so la de da
Can your part ever get, ever get much sadder
That's your lot in life Lalena
Can't blame you Lalena
Oh, Lalena

FAULT LINE
(Instrumental)

THE PAINTER
Painter, come colour up my life
Oh painter, come colour up my life
Take away the misery
Take away the strife

Writer, write me out a play
Writer, make the meaning gay
Oh, I don't need a poem
Just give me words to say

Singer, let me sing a song
Oh singer, let me sing a song
You don't have to worry
'cos singer you can sing along

WHY DIDN'T ROSEMARY
There's a black hill
We have to climb
Everything I need but nothing's mine
Satan's world, I've had a kill
Why didn't Rosemary ever take the pill?

Laying there waiting, waiting for the kill
Oh men won't do it, but the devil will

I'm losing time and my mind
Why can't I ever have what's naturally mine?
I got life and the things that go with it
If there's something else, where can I get it?

Laying there waiting, waiting for the kill
Oh men won't do it, but the devil will

Well here's my views, I always lose
Things I want to do are yesterday's news
Say life's a ball, I've had it all
Out there in another dance hall

Laying there waiting, waiting for the kill
Oh men won't do it, but the devil will

Take me as I am, an excuse for a man
Wherever I push someone stops my hand
As a matter of interest, tell me if you will
Why didn't Rosemary ever take the pill?

Laying there waiting, waiting for the kill
Oh men won't do it, but the devil will

Oh, why didn't Rosemary ever take the pill?

BIRD HAS FLOWN
Oh the beggar, on his cornerstone
Catches pity in his wrinkled hand
But the lover whose bird has flown
Catches nothing, only grains of sand

All the children in the distant house
They have feelings only children know
But the lover whose bird has flown
Catches nothing only flakes of snow

The sensation is not new to you
It's something you all have known
You get it, it goes right through you
Yes it's something we all have known

And the bird it has flown
To a place on it's own
Somewhere all alone

Oh, the hermit in his lonely cave
Has himself to keep him company
But the lover whose bird has flown
He has heartaches same as you and me

The sensation's not new to you
It's something we all have known
You get it , it goes right through you
Yes it's something we all have known

And the bird it has flown

Oh, the hermit in his lonely cave
Has himself to keep him company
But the lover whose bird has flown
He has heartaches same as you and me
Yeah it's started snowing

APRIL
April is a cruel time
Even though the sun may shine
And the world looks in the shade as it slowly comes away
Still falls the April rain
And the valley's filled with pain
And you can't tell me quite why
As I look up to the

Grey sky, where it should be blue
Grey sky, where I should see you
Ask why, why it should be so
I'll cry, say that I don't know

Maybe once in a while
I'll forget, and I'll smile
But then the feeling comes again
Of an April without end
Of an April lonely as they come
In the dark of my mind
I can seek, hope to find
But there is nothing to be done
When I just can't feel the sun
And the springtime is the season of the night

Grey sky, where it should be blue
Grey sky, where I should see you
Ask why, why it should be so
I'll cry, say that I don't know
I don't know

EMMARETTA
Emmaretta, did you get my letter
I sent it to you, Oh Emmaretta
Do you still feel, when night is falling
Something calling, Oh Emmaretta

Behind my bars, Oh Emmaretta
I can't get to you, to feel better
I must go now, Oh Emmaretta
Full moon's rising, Oh Emmaretta

Oh, it's a thousand miles
Oh, and I need you child
Oh, you can drive me wild
What I feel, make it real

Oh, it's a thousand miles
Oh, and I need you child
Oh, it could drive me wild
What I feel, make it real

Emmaretta, did you get my letter
I sent it to you, Oh Emmaretta
Do you still feel, when night is falling
Something calling, Oh Emmaretta

  5. Shield
  6. Anthem
  7. River deep, mountain high
  8. Oh no no no

LISTEN, LEARN, READ ON
In ages past when spells were cast
In a time of men in steel
When a man was taught no special thing
It was all done by feel

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

Hear the song of lovely Joan
Her sound so sweet and clear
In the courtroom of the King
Among children and the peers

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

"Now hear ye the words of Taliesyn,
on the foaming beach of the ocean,
in the day of trouble,
I shall be of more service to thee
than three hundred salmon..."

The hare he bounds across the page
Past castles white and fair
Past dreaming chessmen on their boards
With a fool's mate as a snare

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

"Three times I have been born
I know this from meditation..."

The bird he flies the distance
From pages two to six
Past minstrels in their boxes
To the waters of the Styx

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

Don't take the pictures lightly
Listen to their sound
For from their coloured feeling
Experience is found

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

"All the sciences of the world are collected in my breast,
for I know what has been, what is now,
and what hereafter will occur..."

WRING THAT NECK
(Instrumental)

KENTUCKY WOMAN
Kentucky woman she shines in her own kind of light
She looks at you once and a day what's wrong is alright
And I love her, God knows I love her

Kentucky woman
She gets to know you
She gets to own you, yes she does
Kentucky woman
She ain't the kind to turn at the drop of her name
Well all the things she does they turn you on just the same
And I love her, God knows I love her

Kentucky woman
She gets to know you
She gets to own you
Kentucky woman
I don't want much
The good Lord's earth beneath my feet
A gentle touch
And that one girl in life is sweet and good
There ain't no doubt, talking about

Kentucky woman
She gets to know you
She gets to own you
Kentucky woman
Kentucky woman she shines in her own kind of light
Oh she looks at you once and a day what's wrong is alright
And I love her, yes I do, I love my

Kentucky woman
She gets to know you, yes she does
She gets to own you
Kentucky woman
Kentucky woman, Kentucky woman, Kentucky woman,
Kentucky woman

EXPOSITION (instrumental) / WE CAN WORK IT OUT
Try to see it my way
Do I have to keep on talking 'til I can't go on?
While you see it your way
Run the risk of knowing that our love will soon be gone

We can work it out
We can work it out
Think of what you're saying
You can get it wrong and still you think that it's alright
Think of what I'm saying
We can work it out and get it straight or say goodnight

We can work it out
We can work it out
Life is very short and there's no time
For fussing and fighting my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again
I'll ask you once again

Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While I see it your way
There's a chance that we might fall apart before too long

We can work it out
We can work it out
Life is very short and there's no time
For fussing and fighting my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again
I'll ask you once again

Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While I see it your way
There's a chance that we might fall apart before too long

We can work it out
We can work it out
At least we can try
We can try out to work it out someday

SHIELD
Mama plays a queen on the hill built on a dream
While her children play in the field
Papa smokes the pipe of a sweet and better life
But how strong is the shield?

Can peace be found on the carpet above ground?
Where sky is forever blue

So let it pass baby now
The slow inviting cloud
Which may take me from you

Many things a man can lose, his health, his rights, his views
But never his heart or his love
So take this hand of mine and climb baby, climb
To the hill up above

Now you can play a queen on that hill built on a dream
While our children play in the field

I can smoke the pipe of a sweet and better life
And trust in the strength of the shield

So trust in your love, and you'll see up above
And let life pass like a wheel
Don't take the chance of life's hectic dance
Kiss the strength of the shield

The seeker will be found by the looker underground
And to his wish ye will yield

Fate will have it's word, of course
But time will change it's course
And hold the strength of the shield

ANTHEM
When the night winds softly blow
Through my open window
Then I start to remember
The girl that brought me joy
Now the night winds softly blow
Sadness to tomorrow
Bringing tears to eyes so tired
Eyes I thought could cry no more

If the day would only come
Then you might just appear
Even though you'd soon be gone
When I reached out my hand

If I could see you
If only I could see you
To see if you are laughing or crying
When the night winds softly blow

In my dark and whispering room
Memories still bring me
A numbness to my feelings
Take my hand and brush my brow
In the warm and fevered dark
Heart is madly beating
My crazy thoughts are worrying
When the night winds softly blow

If the day would only come
Then you might just appear
Even though you'd soon be gone
When I reached out my hand

If I could see you
If only I could see you
To see if you are laughing or crying
When the night winds softly blow

If the day would only come
Then you might just appear
Even though you'd soon be gone
When I reached out my hand

If I could see you
If only I could see you
To see if you are laughing or crying
When the night winds softly blow

RIVER DEEP, MOUNTAIN HIGH
When you were a young girl
Did you have a rag doll, the only doll you've ever owned?
Now I'll love you just the way you loved that rag doll
Only now my love has grown

Oh, and it gets stronger as the river flows
Deeper baby, heaven knows
Higher, as it goes

Do I love you, my oh my?
River deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah
Do I love you, would I cry?
Oh I love you baby, baby, baby, baby

When you were a young girl
Did you have a puppy, that always followed you around?
Well I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy
No I'll never never let you down

'Cos it gets stronger as the river flows
And it gets deeper baby, heaven knows
It gets higher, so higher, as it goes

Do I love you, my oh my?
River deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah
Do I love you, would I cry?
Oh I love you baby, baby, baby, baby

Well I love you baby like a flower loves the spring
And I love you baby like a robin likes to sing
And I love you baby like a schoolboy likes his pie
Oh and I love you baby
River deep, mountain high

Do I love you, my oh my?
River deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah
Do I love you, would I cry?
Oh I love you baby, baby, baby, baby

Do I love you, my oh my?
River deep, mountain high, yeah, yeah, yeah
Do I love you, would I cry?
Oh I love you baby, baby, baby, baby

OH NO NO NO
You think by leaving me the sun will go away
You think that if you go there'll be no other way
But your leaving now won't even spoil my day

Oh no no no
Oh no no no
You keep a-waiting for the tears I'm supposed to cry
The promise leaves so I'm supposed to die
I'd forgotten who you were until you dropped on by

Oh no no no
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
You think I'm guilty throwing off the likes of you
That there'll be no one else but there'll be quite a few
At least I've got my head but somehow I'll pull through

Oh no no no
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
Oh no no no

IT’S ALL OVER
Outside her window
That's where I am every night and every day
But outside her window
I cry, I cried my life away

There's a jukebox a-playin'
A half a block down
Singing I'm going to the river
I'm gonna jump on in and drown
But I ain't gonna do it, no
Just gonna keep on hanging around

Oh it's all over
Oh it's all over
All over
Now, now, now, now

But outside her window
A pretty bird comes to play
And I know, I know I must have cried a teardrop
Because I scared that pretty little thing right on away

When I see two young lovers
Walkin' down the street
It just hits me
When I see their two lips meet
Oh I put my head
Right over where my heart used to be, 'cos

It's all over
Oh don't tell me it's all over
It's all over
Now, now, now, now

HEY BOP A RE BOP
No, no, no Gloria
Oh try and help me, Gloria
Standing at the station
Waiting for you Gloria

Oh standing at the station
I've been waiting there for you Gloria
Oh I've been waiting, I've been waiting there for you Gloria
I've been waiting, waiting for you Gloria

No, long day is dying
Long day is dying, Gloria
Long day is dying
Long day is dying, Gloria
Don't you know I'm standing at the station
Waiting for you Gloria

HUSH
Na na na na na na na na na na

No doubt about it she looks so fine
She's the best girl that I ever had
Sometime she's gonna make me feel so bad

Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na

Hush, hush, I thought I heard her calling my name, now
Hush, hush, She broke my heart but I love her just the same, now
Hush, hush, I thought I heard her calling my name, now
Hush, hush, I need her loving and I'm not to blame, now

(Love, love) Well, I want it, I need it

Only took one touch of her hand
Blown my mind and I'm in so deep
That I can't eat y'all and I can't sleep

ONE MORE RAINY DAY
Changes, visible changes
Sky looking so forlorn
It looks like the world bein' born
On one more rainy day

Trying to see the sunlight
My heart's crying out loud
I try to see through the clouds
On one more rainy day

One more rainy day
Once again my mind is grey
This is what a rainy day can do
One more rainy day
One more rainy day

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

Sun starts shining on through
New world, my world with you
It's strange what sun can do
On one more rainy day

One more rainy day
Once again my mind is grey
This is what a rainy day can do
One more rainy day
One more rainy day

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

One more rainy day
One more rainy day
One more rainy day
One more rainy day
One more rainy day
One more rainy day

MANDRAKE ROOT
We got a mandrake root
It's a thunder in my brain
Yeah, I feed it to my baby
She thunders just the same

Food of love, sets her aflame
Ah, stick it up
Yeah, I got the mandrake root
Baby's just the same
She still feels a quiver
She's still got the flame

She slows down, slows right down
I got the power

HELP
When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind, opened up the door

Help me if you can I'm feeling down,
But I do appreciate your being 'round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please help me?
And now my life has changed in oh so many ways
My independence seems to vanish in the haze
But every now and then I feel so insecure
Now I know I need you like I've never done before

Help me if you can I'm feeling down,
But I do appreciate your being 'round me
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please help me, my love?

(Help) I need somebody
(Help) Not just anybody
(Help) I need someone
(Heeeeeeeeelp)

Won't you please help me, my love?
Help me baby, help me

LOVE HELP ME
Vibrant flashes in my mind
Remind me of a foregone time
The blackened faces, broken romance
Blackened faces

My broken heart has bled
With memories of a love that's dead
Sometimes happy then sad
I need love, love help me

Passing by the grounds of time
Memories that are only mine
Looking for love, a brand new love
Looking for love

Dreams that are hard to see
Finding a new love for me
Someday she must come along
I need love, love help me

I need love to come home
Somewhere there must be one

Hoping someday for good news
Waiting for that girl to choose
Only hoping, all I can do
Only hoping

One day she must come along
A girl as pretty as a song
A woman just meant for me
I need love, love help me

Vibrant flashes in my mind
Remind me of a foregone time
The blackened faces, broken romance
Blackened faces

My broken heart has bled
With memories of a love that's dead
Sometimes happy then sad
I need love, love help me
I need love, love help me
I need love, love help me

HEY JOE
Hey Joe, where you going with that gun in your hand
Hey Joe, now tell me where you going with that gun in your hand

I'm goin' down to shoot my lady
'Cos I caught her messing around with another man
Yes, I'm going down to shoot my lady
'Cos I caught her messing around with another man

Hey Joe, I heard you shot your woman down
Hey Joe, I heard you shot your woman down
Right down to the ground

Yes I did I shot her
You know I shot her 'cos I caught her messing 'round town
Yes I did I shot her
I shot my woman 'cos she was messing 'round town
And I gave her the gun - I shot her!

Hey Joe, tell me where you gonna run to?
Hey Joe, c'mon tell me where you gonna run to?

Don't you worry about me
I'm going way down south
Way down south where I'm gonna be free
I'm going way down south
Way down south maybe outside Mexico way
I'm gonna run, oh yeah

SHADOWS
Walk through the night looking for your kind of smile
Hoping to meet you I walk, my love, for miles
Your face, your eyes, I can't find the girl I look for

Shadows can't conceal you
You can't hide, so please don't try
Your life and my love
But to search just makes me cry

Light was so young and another day is gone
Love seems a lost word how can my heart be strong
When night falls again I wait for love to be there

Shadows can't conceal you
You can't hide, so please don't try
Your life and my love
But to search just makes me cry

Then in the shadows I see the face I look for
But then like the night you're gone just as before
A face in a crowd, a shadow once more

Shadows can't conceal you
You can't hide, so please don't try
Your life and my love
But to search just makes me cry

Ah ah ah ah ah ...

Shadows can't conceal you
You can't hide, so please don't try
Your life and my love
But to search just makes me cry

Shadows, shadows, shadows, shadows
Shadows, shadows, shaaaaadows

ROCKING CHAIR
Old rockin' chair's got me,
cane by my side
Fetch me my gin, son,
'fore I tan your hide
Get from this cabin,
I ain’t goin' nowhere
I’m sittin’ here grabbin'
at the flies ‘round my rockin' chair

RIVER RUNS DEEP
Well, the river runs deep and the water is cold as ice
River runs deep and the water is cold as ice
I go down there every chance I get
It's where my baby she met her death
And the river runs deep and the water's cold as ice

Ain't no woman gonna make a fool out of me
Ain't no woman gonna make a fool out of me
Running 'round, that's what they said
She's at the bottom of the river bed
And the river runs deep and the water's cold as ice

Cheating woman gonna get a good man down
Cheating woman gonna get a good man down
Running 'round like a silly fool
End up at the bottom of the pool
River runs deep and the water's cold as ice

River runs deep and the water's cold as ice
That river runs deep and the water's cold as ice
River runs deep and the water's cold as ice
River runs deep and the water's cold as ice

JUDGEMENT DAY
What you gonna do on judgement day
The time's run out now, you can't stay
Screaming and crying, you got to go
Turn and say, "Peter won't you open the door?"

Yes, I'm coming (Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming (Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming
Just like my time alone

When I die you can't bury me
Groups come women at my head and feet
You fold my arms across my chest
You tell my friends that I'm gone to rest

Yes, I'm coming (Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming (Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming
Just like my time alone

When I'm dead right there in my grave
You're gonna be sorry that you treat me like a slave
There ain't no one can take my place
You're gonna cry your blues away

Yes, I'm coming (Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming (Yes, I’m coming)
Yes, I’m coming
Just like my time alone

HOW DEEP IS THE OCEAN
How much do I love you?
I'll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

How many times a day
Do I think of you?
How many roses
Are sprinkled with dew?

How far would I travel
To be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?

And if I ever lose you
How much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

How many times a day
Do I think of you?
How many roses
Are sprinkled with dew?

How far would I travel
To be where you are?

From here to a star?

And if I ever lose you
How much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

And if I ever lose you
How much would I cry?

MY VERY GOOD FRIEND THE MILKMAN
My very good friend, the milkman says
That I've been losing too much sleep
He doesn't like the hours I keep
And he suggests that you should marry me

My very good friend, the mailman says
That it would make his burden less
We both had the same address
And he suggests that you should marry me

And then there's a very friendly fellow who prints
All the latest real estate news
And every day he sends me blueprints
Of cottages with country views

My very good friends, the neighbors say
They've been watching little things I do
And they perceive that I love you
So I suggest that you should marry me

And then there's a very friendly fellow who prints
All the latest real estate news
And every day he sends me blueprints
Of cottages with country views

And my very good friends, the neighbors say
They've been watching little things I do
They perceive that I love you
So I suggest that you should marry me

Here comes the bride, all fat and wide

CAN’T HOLD OUT MUCH LONGER
You know I'm crazy about you baby,
Wonder, do you ever think of me.
You know I'm wild about you baby, but you
don't care nothing in the world for me.

Oh, I can't sleep at night
I just cats nap through the day
I can't hold out much longer
Lord, living this way.
You know I'm crazy about you baby,
Wonder, do you ever think of me.
You know I'm wild about you baby, but you
don't care nothing in the world for me.

Well, there ain't but the one thing baby
That makes your daddy drink.
When you say that you don't love me,
Lord I begin to think.

You know I'm crazy about you baby,
Wonder, do you ever think of me.
You know I'm wild about you baby, but you
don't care nothing in the world for me.

THAT’S NO WAY TO GET ALONG
Well I'm goin' home (well I’m goin’ home),
friends, sit down (friends sit down)
and tell my, (and tell my) my mama (my mama)
Friends, sit down and tell my mama
I'm goin' home, sit down and tell my mama
I'm goin' home, sit down and tell my mama
That’s no way to me to get along

These low-down (these low-down)

ahw, your poor son wrong (your poor son wrong)
Mama, treated me wrong
Low-down women, mama, treated your poor son wrong

And that's no way for him to get along

They treated me (they treated me)

a rock or stone (a rock or stone)
Mama, made of a rock or stone
My poor heart was made of a rock or stone
My poor heart was made of a rock or stone
And that's no way for me to get along

But I stood on (but I stood on)
the roadside (the roadside),
I had cried alone (I cried alone),
all by myself (all by myself)
I cried alone all by myself
I stood on the roadside and cried all by myself
I stood on the roadside and cried all by myself
And that's no way for me to get along

I just wont some (I just wont some)
train to come along (come along)
and take me
friends away from here
Friends, take me away from here
Train come along and take me away from here
Train come along and take me away from here
And that's no way for me to get along

EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT
Same old hassle every night
All we do is fuss and fight
Ain't no use in talking, might as well start walking
Walking out into the night
You get your gun, I'll get mine
We can do it just one time
If we live no longer, it won't get no stronger
Then we'll know who's really right

All we do is weep and moan
Trying to build ourself a home
Ain't no shame in trying, ain't no use denying
Everything will be alright
Ain't no shame in trying, ain't no use denying
Everything will be alright

DIAMONDS MADE FROM RAIN
The moment's come and gone
Every memory leaves a trace
All that I've come to know
In the lines upon my face
Every storm that I have turned
Each forgiveness I have earned
Every shame that's taught me grace
From you I have learned
No love is lost
No love is lost

That everything is shown to me
I let it wash over me
Like diamonds made of rain
You can find joy inside the pain
Everything that I've endured
For the wisdom of a pearl
I wouldn't change a thing
You can make diamonds from the rain

Every mile of this road
Every chord that's struck my soul
You are the melody
That will soothe me 'til I'm old
If the promises are kept
I'll waive all of my regrets
I can say I've overcome
With you, my heart is open
No love was lost
No love was lost

That everything is shown to me
I let it wash over me
Like diamonds made of rain
You can find joy inside the pain
Everything that I've endured
For the wisdom of a pearl
I wouldn't change a thing
You can make diamonds from the rain

WHEN SOMEBODY THINKS YOU’RE WONDERFUL
When somebody thinks you're wonderful
What a difference in your day
Seems as though your troubles disappear
Like a feather in your way

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Tells you with a smile so sweet
What are little stones you step upon
Just a meadow 'neath your feet

And how you meet the morning
And you gaily swing along
At night you may be weary
But your heart still sings a song

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Love is mighty close to you
Just another thing more wonderful
Making all her dreams come true

And how you meet the morning
And you gaily swing along
At night you may be weary
But your heart still sings its song

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Love is mighty close to you
Just another thing more wonderful
Making all her dreams come true

HARD TIMES BLUES
Well, hard times, baby, hard times everywhere I go
All hard times baby, hard times everywhere I go
Now these people keep cryin' 'bout hard times, they comin' more and more

Now can't you see what, what people is going to do
Now I can't see what people, these poor people is going to do
Keep cryin' about these hard times and they coming more and more

Now I went to the factory this mornin' where I had worked ten years ago
And I went to the factory this mornin' where I had worked ten years ago
And the bossman told me that they ain't hirin' in here no more

Now if I was a bluebird, baby, had my trunk packed on my back
Hey if I was a bluebird, baby, had my trunk packed on my back
I would fly away from this town, mama, and I'd swear I would never come back

RUN BACK TO YOUR SIDE
'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
I got nothing to lose, boy
All I had is gone

I should've know better
I should've hung around
I should've know better
I should've hung around
I had my head out of the window
Big beat on the ground

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
You know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

Well, I don't wanna be here
When the sun go down
I don't wanna be here
When the sun go down
Another day goin' nowhere
In this lonesome town

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
Well, you know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
But you know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

AUTUMN LEAVES
The falling leaves
Drift by my window
The autumn leaves
Of red and gold
I see your lips
The summer kisses
The sunburned hands
I used to hold

Since you went away
The days grow long
And soon I'll hear
Old winter's song
But I miss you most of all
My darling
When autumn leaves
Start to fall

Since you went away
The days grow long
And soon I'll hear
Old winter's song
But I miss you most of all
My darling
When autumn leaves
Start to fall

Yes I miss you most of all
My darling
When autumn leaves
Start to fall
