Woodstock
|
|
I came upon the child of god He was walking along the road When I asked him where he was going this he told me I'm going down to Yasgur's Farm Think I'll join a rock n' roll band I'll camp out on the land and try and set my soul free We are stardust We are golden And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden Then can I walk beside you I have come here to lose the smog And I feel just like a cog in something turning Well maybe it's the time of year or maybe it's the time of man And I don't know who I am but life is for learning We are stardust We are golden And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden By the time I got to Woodstock They were half a million strong Everywhere there were songs and celebration In a dream I saw the bombers Riding shotgun in the sky Turning into butterflies above our nation We are stardust We are golden And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden |

I'm Only Sleeping
|
|
When I wake up early in the morning Lift my head, I'm still yawning When I'm in the middle of a dream Stay in bed, float up stream Please don't wake me, no don't shake me Leave me where I am I'm only sleeping Everybody seems to think I'm lazy I don't mind, I think they're crazy Running everywhere at such a speed 'Til they find there's no need Please don't spoil my day, I'm miles away And after all I'm only sleeping Keeping an eye on the world going by my window Taking my time Lying there and staring at the ceiling Waiting for a sleepy feeling Please don't spoil my day, I'm miles away And after all I'm only sleeping Keeping an eye on the world going by my window Taking my time When I wake up early in the morning Lift my head, I'm still yawning When I'm in the middle of a dream Stay in bed, float up stream Please don't wake me, no don't shake me Leave me where I am I'm only sleeping |

Mr. Tambourine Man
|
|
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you. Though I know that evenin's empire has returned into sand, Vanished from my hand, Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping. My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet, I have no one to meet And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you. Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship, My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip, My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels To be wanderin'. I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade Into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you. Though you might hear laughin', spinnin', swingin' madly across the sun, It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escapin' on the run And but for the sky there are no fences facin'. And if you hear vague traces of skippin' reels of rhyme To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind, I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're Seein' that he's chasing. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you. Then take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind, Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves, The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach, Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow. Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves, Let me forget about today until tomorrow. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you. |

Girl
|
|
Is there anybody going to listen to my story All about the girl who came to stay? She's a kind of girl you want so much it makes you sorry Still, you don't regret a single day Ah, girl Girl, girl When I think of all the times I've tried so hard to leave her She will turn to me and start to cry And the promises the earth to me and I believe her After all this time I don't know why Ah, girl Girl, girl She's a kind of girl who puts you down when friends are there You feel a fool When you say she's looking good she acts as if it's understood She's cool, oh, oh, oh Ah, girl Girl, girl Was she told when she was young that fame would lead to pleasure Did she understand it when they said That a man must break his back to earn his day of leisure? Will she still believe it when he's dead? Ah, girl Girl, girl |

Scarborough Fair
|
|
Are you goin' to Scarborough Fair Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme Remember me to one who lives there She once was a true love of mine Tell her to make me a cambric shirt On the side of a hill in the deep forest green Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme Tracing of sparrow on snow-crested brown Without no seam nor needle work Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain Then she'll be a true love of mine Sleeps unaware of the clarion call Tell her to find me an acre of land On the side of a hill a sprinkling of leaves Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme Washes the grave with silvery tears Between the salt water and the sea strand A soldier cleans and polishes a gun Then she'll be a true love of mine Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme General order their soldiers to kill And to gather it all in a bunch of heather And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten Then she'll be a true love of mine Are you going to Scarborough Fair Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme Remember me to one who lives there She once was a true love of mine |

Here Comes the Sun

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun And I say it's all right Little darling, it's been a long, cold, lonely winter Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here Here comes the sun, here comes the sun And I say it's all right Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here Here comes the sun, here comes the sun And I say it's all right Sun, sun, sun, here it comes Sun, sun, sun, here it comes Sun, sun, sun, here it comes Sun, sun, sun, here it comes Sun, sun, sun, here it comes Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear Here comes the sun, here comes the sun And I say it's all right It's all right |

Here, There and Everywhere
|
|
To lead a better life I need my love to be here Here, making each day of the year Changing my life with a wave of her hand Nobody can deny that there's something there There, running my hands through her hair Both of us thinking how good it can be Someone is speaking but she doesn't know he's there I want her everywhere And if she's beside me I know I need never care But to love her is to meet her everywhere Knowing that love is to share Each one believing that love never dies Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there I want her everywhere And if she's beside me I know I need never care But to love her is to meet her everywhere Knowing that love is to share Each one believing that love never dies Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there To be there and everywhere Here, there and everywhere |

You've Got a Friend
|
|
When you're down and troubled And you need a helping hand And nothing, whoa nothing is going right. Close your eyes and think of me And soon I will be there To brighten up even your darkest nights. You just call out my name, And you know wherever I am I'll come running, oh yeah baby To see you again. Winter, spring, summer, or fall, All you have to do is call And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah. You've got a friend. If the sky above you Should turn dark and full of clouds And that old north wind should begin to blow Keep your head together and call my name out loud And soon I will be knocking upon your door. You just call out my name and you know where ever I am I'll come running to see you again. Winter, spring, summer or fall All you got to do is call And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend? People can be so cold. They'll hurt you and desert you. Well they'll take your soul if you let them. Oh yeah, but don't you let them. You just call out my name and you know wherever I am I'll come running to see you again. Oh babe, don't you know that, Winter spring summer or fall, Hey now, all you've got to do is call. Lord, I'll be there, yes I will. You've got a friend. You've got a friend. Ain't it good to know you've got a friend. Ain't it good to know you've got a friend. You've got a friend. |

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down
|
|
Virgil Caine is the name, and I served on the Danville train, 'Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again. In the winter of '65, we were hungry, just barely alive. By May the tenth, Richmond had fell, It's a time I remember, oh so well, The night they drove Old Dixie down, and the bells were ringing, The night they drove Old Dixie down, and the people were singin'. They went la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Back with my wife in Tennessee, when one day she called to me, "Virgil, quick, come see, there goes Robert E. Lee!" Now I don't mind choppin' wood, and I don't care if the money's no good. Ya take what ya need and ya leave the rest, But they should never have taken the very best. The night they drove Old Dixie down, and the bells were ringing, The night they drove Old Dixie down, and the people were singin'. They went la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Like my father before me, I will work the land, Like my brother above me, who took a rebel stand. He was just eighteen, proud and brave, but a Yankee laid him in his grave, I swear by the mud below my feet, You can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat. The night they drove Old Dixie down, and the bells were ringing, The night they drove Old Dixie down, and the people were singin'. They went la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. |

A Day in the Life
|
|
I read the news today, oh boy About a lucky man who made the grade And though the news was rather sad I just had to laugh I saw the photograph He blew his mind out in a car He didn't notice that the lights had changed A crowd of people stood and stared They'd seen his face before Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords I saw a film today, oh boy The English army had just won the war A crowd of people turned away But I just had to look Having read the book I'd love to turn you on Woke up, got out of bed Dragged a comb across my head Found my way downstairs and drank a cup And looking up I notice I was late Found my coat and grabbed my hat Made the bus in second flat Found my way upstairs and had a smoke And somebody spoke and I went into a dream I read the news today, oh boy Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire And though the holes were rather small They had to count them all Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall I'd love to turn you on |
