| He
got O-no sideboard / He one spinal cracker / He bag production / He got
walrus gumboot
Here come old flat top / He come groovin' up slowly / He got joo joo eyeball / He one holly roller / He got hair down to his knee / Got to be a joker / He just do what he please / He wear no shoe shine, he got toe jam football / He got funny finger / He shoot Coca - Cola / He say I know you, you know me / One thing I can tell you is you got to be free Come together, right now, over me... He got feet down below his knee / Hold you in his armchair, you can feel his disease Come together, right now, over me... He roller coaster / He got early warning / He got muddy water / He one mojo filter / He say one and one and one is three / Got to be good lookin', 'cause he's so hard to see Come together, right now, over me... |
| 02. Dead Flowers |
|
Well when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair / Talking to some rich folk that you know / Well I hope you won't see me in my ragged company / Cause you know I could never be alone Chorus Well when you're sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac / Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day / I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon / And another girl to take my pain away Chorus Take me down little Susie, take me down / I know you think you're the queen of the underground / And you can / Send me dead flowers every morning / Send me dead flowers by the US mail / Say it with dead flowers in my wedding / And I won't forget to put roses on your grave / No, I won't forget to put roses on your grave. |
| 03. Heartbreak Hotel |
|
Now since my baby left me I've found a new place to dwell / down at the end of Lonely Street at Heartbreak Hotel. I'm so lonely, I'm so lonely / I'm so lonely that I could die. And tho' it's always crowded you can still find some room / for broken hearted lovers to cry there in the gloom / and be so lonely, oh so lonely / oh so lonely they could die. The bell hop's tears keep flowing, the desk clerk's dressed in black / They been so long on Lonely Street they never ever will go back / and they're so lonely, oh they're so lonely, they're so lonely they pray to die. So if your baby leaves and you have a tale to tell / just take a walk down Lonely Street to Heartbreak Hotel / where you'll be lonely and I'll be lonely / we'll be so lonely that we could die. |
| 04. Jumpin' Jack Flash |
|
I was born in a crossfire hurricane / And I howled at my mind in the drying
rain / But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas / But it's all right
/ I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash / it's a gas, gas, gas
I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag / I was schooled with a strap right across my back / But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas / But it's all right / I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash / it's a gas, gas, gas I was drowned I was washed up and left for dead / I fell down to my feet and I saw they bleed / I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread / I was crowned with a spike right through my head / But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas / But it's all right / I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas Slash was drowned, he was washed up left for dead / Steven scowled as the sight of the crust of bread / Duff looked around, there was no sign of a friend / Oh, Izzy was crowned, with a spike right through his face. |
| 05. Salt Of The Earth |
|
Lets drink to the hard working people / lets drink to the lowly of birth / raise your glass to the good and the evil / lets drink to the salt of the earth Say a prayer for the common foot soldier / spare a thought for his back breaking work / say a prayer for his wife and his children / who burn the fires and who still till the earth And when I search a faceless crowd / a swirling mass of gray and / black and white / they don't look real to me / in fact, they look so strange Raise your glass to the hard working people / lets drink to the uncounted heads / lets think of the wandering millions / who need leaders but get gamblers instead / spare a thought for the stay at home voter / his empty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows / and a parade of the gray suited grafters / a choice of cancer or polio And when I search a faceless crowd / a swirling mass of gray and / black and white / they don't look real to me / in fact, they look so strange Lets drink to the hard working people / lets think of the lowly of birth / spare a thought for the rag taggy people / lets drink to the salt of the earth / lets drink to the hard working people / lets drink to the salt of the earth / lets think of the two thousand millions / lets think of the humble of birth. |
| 06. Train Kept A Rolling |
|
Well, on a train, I met a dame / She rather handsome, but the same / She was pretty, from New York City / I'm walkin' down that old fair lane / I'm in heat, I'm in love / But I just couldn't tell her so Chorus Well, get along, sweet little woman get along / On your way, get along, sweet little woman get along / On your way / I'm in heat, I'm in love / But I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no Well, on a train, I met a dame / She rather handsome, but the same / She was pretty, from New York City / I'm walkin' down that old fair lane / I'm in heat, I'm in love / But I just couldn't tell her so Chorus Well, get along, sweet little woman get along / On your way, get along, sweet little woman get along / On your way / I'm in heat, I'm in love / But I just couldn't tell her Well, we made a stop in Albequerque / She must'a thought I was a real cool jerk / Got off the train, and put her hands up / Lookin' so good I couldn't let her go / But I just couldn't tell her so I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long / Train kept a-rollin' all night long / Train kept a-rollin' all night long / Train kept a-rollin' all night long / I'm in heat, I'm in love / But I just couldn't tell her. |
| 07. It's Alright |
|
Told you once about your friends and neighbors / They were always seeking but they'll never find / That its alright, yes its alright Where to go, where to be / Its always been that way and it will always be / but its alright, yes its alright Give it all and ask for no return / And very soon you'll see and you'll begin to learn / that its alright, yes its alright Don't you know that its so good for you / you can be making love and see it all go through / but its alright, yes its alright Hold her now and you can both go home / its been a long time coming but you've finally shown / that its alright, yes its alright. |
| 08. Whole Lotta Rosie |
| I
wanna tell you a story / 'bout a woman I know / When it comes to lovin'
/ Oh, she steals the show / She ain't exactly pretty / Ain't exactly small
/ 42-39-56 / You can say she's got it all
Never had a woman / Never had a woman like you / Doin' all the things / Doin' all the things you do / Ain't no fairy story / Ain't no skin and bone / But you give it all you got / Weighin' in at nineteen stone Chorus Oh honey you can do it / Do it to me all night long / Only one that turns / Only one that turns me on / All through the night-time / Right around the clock / To my surprise / Rosie never stops. Chorus |
| 09. Wild Horses |
| Childhood
living is easy to do / The things you wanted / I bought them for you graceless
lady / You know who I am / You know I can't let you slide through my hand
Chorus I watched you suffer / A dull aching pain / Now you're decided / to show me the same / No sweeping exits / or offstage lines / could make me feel bitter / or treat you unkind I know I've dreamed you / a sin n' a lie / I have my freedom / But I dont have much time / Faith has been broken / tears must be cried / let's do some living / after we die Chorus |
