"And I see them in the streets, And I see them in the field, And I hear them shouting under my feet. And I know it's got to be real. Oh, Lord, deliver me. All the wrong I've done, You can deliver me, Lord. I only wanted to have some fun."

"Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar, Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more. Singing about the good things and the sun that lights the day, Used to sing on the mountains, Has the ocean lost its way?"

"Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain, Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the brain. Got no time to pack my bag, my foot's outside the door, Got a date, can't be late for the high hopes hailla ball."

"Walking side by side with death, The devil mocks their every step. The snow drives back the foot that's slow, The dogs of doom are howling more."

"Many have I loved, many times been bitten Many times I've gazed along the open road. Many times I've lied - Many times I've listened Many times I've wondered how much there is to know. Many dreams come true and some have silver linings I live for my dream and a pocketful of gold."

"Hey lady—you got the love I need Maybe more than enough. Oh darling, darling, darling walk a while with me. You've got so much...so much..."

"This is the springtime of my loving - the second season I am to know You are the sunlight in my growing—so little warmth I've felt before. It isn't hard to feel me glowing—I watched the fire that grew so low."

"California sunlight, sweet Calcutta rain, Honolulu starlight, the song remains the same!"

"Hear my song. People won't you listen now? Sing along. You don't know what you're missing now. Any little song that you know Everything that's small has to grow. And it has to grow!"

"All last night sat on the levee and moaned; All last night sat on the levee and moaned. Thinkin' about my baby and my happy home, Going, going to Chicago.. Going to Chicago.. Sorry but I can't take you..Going down.. going down now.. going down..."

"Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good. Now, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good. When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move."

"To find a queen without a king, They say she plays guitar and cries and sings... la la la Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born. Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams, Telling myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems."

"Seems like the wrath of the gods got a punch on the nose and it started to flow, I think I might be sinking. Throw me a line if I reach it in time, I'll meet you up there where the path runs straight and high."

"Spent my days with a woman unkind, Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine. Made up my mind to make a new start, Going to California with an aching in my heart. Someone told me there's a girl out there With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.Took my chances on a big jet plane, Never let them tell you that they're all the same. The sea was red and the sky was grey, Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today. The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake As the children of the sun began to awake."

"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 river runs dry, baby, how do you feel?"

"If you go down in the streets today, Baby, you better, You better open your eyes. Folk down there really don't care, really don't care, don't care, really don't Which, which way the pressure lies, So I've decided what I'm gonna 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."

"Walkin' in the park just the other day, baby, What do you, what do you think I saw? Crowds of people sittin' on the grass with flowers in their hair said, Hey, Boy, do you wanna score?" And you know how it is I really don't know what time it was, woh, oh, oh so I asked them if I could stay a while."

"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."

"Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know. The Piper's calling you to join him. Dear lady, can't you hear the wind blow, and did you know? Your stairway lies on the whispering wind."

"If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now, It's just a spring clean for the May Queen. Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run There's still time to change the road you're on. And it makes me wonder."

"And it's whispered that soon if we all call a 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."

"There's 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. And it makes me wonder, Really makes me wonder."

"There's 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, there's a songbird who sings Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven. It makes me wonder."

"It's been a long time since I rock and rolled, It's 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. It's been a long time, been a long time, Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Yes it has."

"All I ask for when I pray, steady rollin' woman gonna come my way. Need a woman gonna hold my hand, won't tell me no lies, make me a happy man."

"Didn't take too long 'fore I found out, what people mean by down and out. Spent my money, took my car, started telling her friends she wants to be a star. I don't know but I been told, a big-legged woman ain't got no soul."

"Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move, gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove. Oh, oh, child, way you shake that thing, gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting. Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way, watch your honey drip, can't keep away."

"Ah caught you smiling at me, That's the way it should be. Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine. Ah all the good times we had, I sang love songs so glad. Always smiling, never sad, so fine."

"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."
