Steve Porcaro [작곡, 키보드, 피아노]

There was a young girl
Ridin' on the wind
She had all of the answers
Didn't need to pretend
I remember - she was the only friend
I ever needed

Now I wonder
How to work it all out
My hands are tremblin'
I've got this feelin' now

There's a bit of thunder
Pounding in my heart
A little uncertainty
That's been there from the start
Don't tell me all the looks you gave
Were the ones that I misread
'Cause all I hear now
Is a voice inside my head

Could this be love
That I hear calling
Could this be love
That I hear calling

Got a fast education
Holding you in tears
Someone finally hurt you
After all these years
Got to get my message to you somehow

Now you're lookin' in my eyes for courage
Too late to think this through
Baby
There must be something we can do

There's a bit of thunder
Pounding in my heart
A little uncertainty
That's been there from the start
Don't tell me all the looks you gave
Were the ones that I misread
'Cause all I hear now
Is a voice inside my head

Could this be love
That I hear calling
Could this be love
That I hear calling

(Instrumental brake)

There's a bit of thunder
Pounding in my heart

Don't tell me all the looks you gave
Were the ones that I misread
'Cause all I hear now
Is a voice inside my head

Could this be love
That I hear calling
Could this be love
That I hear calling

Bodhisattva
Would you take me by the hand

Bodhisattva
Would you take me by the hand
Can you show me
The shine of your Japan
The sparkle of your china
Can you show me
Bodhisattva

Bodhisattva
I'm gonna sell my house in town

Bodhisattva
I'm gonna sell my house in town

And I'll be there
To shine in your Japan
To sparkle in your China
Yes I'll be there

Bodhisattva

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I know it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know why nobody told you how to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you.

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps

I don't know why nobody told you how to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you.

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps

I look at you all...

Still my guitar gently weeps

I, my, my, my, my
Oh I,
Can turn the gray sky blue, I
You see I can make it rain, when I want it to, oh I

You see I can make a ship sail, on dry land tell 'em yeah
I'm unhappy with all the powers I possess, yeah
Girl you're the key to my happiness and I
(I can't get next to you, babe )
(I can't get next to you)

(I can't get next to you, babe)
(I can't get next you)
I don't know what to do

I, Lord I've been working on it, baby
I've been thinking about it
Oh I
But you see, I've been trying to call you all day long
But you see I don't have your phone number, honey, I
I've been, I've been, thinking about you baby, something awful
You see, I, oh I, sometimes I feel like I want to moan about it
And I, I don't just know what to say about it

A boy is born in hard time Mississippi
Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty
His parents give him love and affection
To keep him strong moving in the right direction
Living just enough, just enough for the city..ee ha!

His father works some days for fourteen hours
And you can bet he barely makes a dollar
His mother goes to scrub the floors for many
And you'd best believe she hardly gets a penny
Living just enough, just enough for the city.. yeah!

His hair is long, his feet are hard and gritty
He spends his life walking the streets of New York City
He's almost dead from breathing in air pollution
He tried to vote but to him there's no solution
Living just enough, just enough for the city..

I hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow
And that it motivates you to make a better tomorrow
This place is cruel no where could be much colder
If we don't change the world will soon be over

Living just enough...
For the city... ooh, ooh
(Repeat several times)

You tell me there's an angel in your tree
Did he say he'd come to call on me
For things are getting desperate in our home
Living in the parish of the restless folks I know

Everybody now bring your family down to the riverside
Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide
Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps
It's time we put the flame torch to their keep

Burn down the mission
If we're gonna stay alive
Watch the black smoke fly to heaven
See the red flame light the sky

Burn down the mission
Burn it down to stay alive
It's our only chance of living
Take all you need to live inside

Deep in the woods the squirrels are out today
My wife cried when they came to take me away
But what more could I do just to keep her warm
Than burn burn burn burn down the mission walls

Bring your family down to the riverside
Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide
Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps
It's time we put the flame torch to their keep

Chorus

It's getting near dawn.
The lights close their tired eyes.
I'll soon be with you, my love,
to give you my dawn surprise.
I'll be with you, darling, soon,
I'll be with you when the stars start falling.

I've been waiting so long
to be where I'm going
in the sunshine of your love.

I'm with you, my love.
The light shining through on you.
Yes, I'm with you, my love,
it's the morning and just we two.
I'll stay with you, darling, now,
I'll stay with you till my seeds are dried up.

I've been waiting so long
to be where I'm going
in the sunshine of your love.

It's getting near dawn.
The lights close their tired eyes.
I'll soon be with you, my love,
to give you my dawn surprise.
I'll be with you, darling, soon,
I'll be with you when the stars start falling.

I've been waiting so long..

There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one

My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk

------ organ solo ------

Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun

Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one
And God I know I'm one

Nice girls not one with a defect,
cellophane shrink-wrapped, so correct.
Red dogs under illegal legs,
she looks so good that he gets down and begs.

She is watching the detectives, "ooh, he's so cute!"
She is watching the detectives, when they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot.
They beat him up until the teardrops start,
But he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart.

Long shot of that jumping sign,
visible shivers running down my spine.
Cut the baby taking off her clothes.
Close-up of the sign that says,"We never close"
You snatch a tune, you a match a cigarette,
She pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet.
I don't know how much more of this I can take.
She's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake.

She is watching the detectives...

You think you're alone until you realize you're in it.
Now fear is here to stay. Love is here for a visit.
They call it instant justice when it's past the legal limit.
Someone's scratching at the window. I wonder who is it?
The detectives come to check if you belong to the parents
who are ready to hear the worst about their daughter's disappearance.
Though it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay,
it only took my little fingers to blow you away.

Just like watching the detectives, don't get cute!"
It's just like watching the detectives.
I get so angry when the teardrops start,
but he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart.
Just like watching the detectives..

Well, I ride on a mailtrain, baby,
Can't buy a thrill.
Well, I've been up all night, baby,
Leanin' on the window sill.
Well, if I die
On top of the hill
And if I don't make it,
You know my baby will.

And if I don't make it,
You know my baby will.

Now the wintertime is coming,
The windows are filled with frost.
I went to tell everybody,
But I could not get across.
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby,
I don't wanna be your boss.
Don't say I never warned you
When your train gets lost.

Don't say I never warned you
When your train gets lost.

Chorus:
You supply the night, baby, I'll supply the love
You supply the night, baby, I'll supply the love

I see a horseman in the sky, it makes me turn and wonder why
I hear the same old fourteen reasons, must be the changin' of
the seasons

Chorus:

I met the girl across the sea, she saved my life and came with
me
A tender night of dark persuasion, could be my first and last
occasion

Chorus:

(Instrumental break)

Chorus repeats 2x:

Baby, I'll supply the love, baby, I'll supply the, I'll supply
the love
