The Yardbirds

Don't know where to run to,
Don't know where to hide.
See my future coming,
Like the rising of the tide.
But I lost you,
Lost you woman.
The only woman,
Woman who was my kind.

Made me lose my money,
You made me lose my mind.
It's people like you, baby,
Don't you rule mankind.
But I lost you,
Lost you woman.
The only woman,
Woman who was my kind.

But if you come back,
I won't be the same.
What you did to me,
You can hardly call humane.
But I lost you,
But I still love you.
The only woman,
Woman who was my kind

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Cars and girls are easy come by in this day and age
laughing joking drinking smoking
till I've spent my wage.
When I was young people spoke of immorality
all the things they said
were wrong are what I want to be.
Over under sideways down.
Hey, backwards forwards square and 'round.
Over under sideways down.
Hey, backwards forwards square and round.
When will it end, when will it end.
Hey! Hey!
I find comment 'bout my looks irrelativity
think I'll go and have some fun 'cos it's all for free
I'm not searching for a reason to enjoy myself
seems it's better done
than argued with somebody else.
Over under sideways down.
Hey, backwards forwards square and round.
Over under sideways down.
Hey, backwards forwards square and round.
When will it end, when will it end.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Over under sideways down...

I'm searching for my baby,
Well I think I'm gonna cry.
I'm searching for my baby,
I think I'm gonna cry, yeah.
I can't find that woman,
No matter how hard I try.

Well I've got myself a car,
And the thing is painted blue.
Well I've got myself a car,
And that thing is painted blue.
But no matter what's done to me baby,
I guess I'll always be blue.

I got a hundred and fifty things,
Now all I gotta find is you.
I got a hundred and fifty things,
Now all I gotta find is you.
And if the Nazz don't help me baby,
You better forget about me too.

I can't make your way.
Silly men, they all get worried,
Live their life so worthlessly,
Troubled, bothered, flustered, hurried,
They should take a look at me.
Taxman, rentman, they all chase me,
I ain't home when they come round.
Got no money, live my life free,
That's the best way, I have found.

I can't make your way.
I can't make your way.

I can't make your way.
Is that me I hear you calling?
Do I hear you call my name?
It ain't me that will be falling,
Ten years time, I'll be the same.

I can't make your way.
I can't make your way.
I can't make your way.
I can't make your way.
I can't make your way.

Baby I got a problem,
Don't know what to do.
Baby I got a problem,
I don't know what to do.
Can't find the words to describe you, woman,
None I got will do.

I gonna search a dictionary,
I find new words to use.
Gonna search a dictionary,
Find new words to use.
Woman you defy me,
Ain't no words to choose.

Baby I'm rackin' my mind,
Baby I'm rackin' my mind,
Now I can't [ ?].
Baby rackin' my mind,
I can't find,
Any words.

Tell me woman,
Got a hold on my mind.
My, my, my, my, my, mind,
You sure are the strangest kind.
Got no words for you baby,
Ain't no words I can find.

Now I know what to call you,
Know what to call you, baby.
I know what to call you,
Know what to call you,
You're the world's worst woman,
The devil ever made.

Now I know you baby,
Now I know you girl,
Now I know you baby,
[You find some other guy ?]
I know baby,
I sure raise my eye.

Looking at the world around,
For the very first time.
Never seen it all before,
Hope it's not all mine.

On Monday morning all alone,
I woke within my house of stone.
I ventured forth unto the day,
These things I saw upon my way.

Trees and flowers were wrapped around,
With people's castoffs on the ground.
Roads and noise of glass and steel,
And people snared within the wheel.

Tuesday looked into the sky,
Where birds in peace were left to fly.
Thunder rolled and lightning flashed,
I watched the world as people dashed.

Friday's sadness began to creep,
Upon me like the deepest sleep.
It seemed that only I could see,
Just what my world would finally be.

On Sunday back inside my room,
I draw the blinds, 'tis afternoon.
I let my mind find its own ways,
Farewell to future days.

(Chris Dreja / Jim McCarty / Jeff Beck
/ Keith Relf / Paul Samwell-Smith)
Meeting people along my way,
Seemingly alone one day,
But the reality of things,
That my dreaming always brings.

Happenings ten years time ago,
Situations we really know,
But the knowing is in the mind,
Sinking deep into the well of time.
Sinking deep into the well of time.

Walking in the room I see,
Things that mean a lot to me.
Why they do I never know,
Memories don't strike me so.
Memories don't strike me so.

It seems to me I've been here before,
The sounds I heard, and the sights I saw.
Was it real, was it in my dreams?
I need to know what it all means.

Happenings ten years time ago,
Situations we really know,
But the knowing is in the mind,
Sinking deep into the well of time.
Sinking deep into the well of time.

(Yardbirds)
Pennsylvania snow is pretty thick,
Michigan ain't where I get my kicks.

Texas is fine but it gets too hot,
And New York City's not a place to stop.

New Orleans is the home of the blues,
But California's my home with Mary Hughes.

Down in Mississippi I'm told is nice,
And all the meals there, they come with rice.

Oregon and Iowa are not for me,
The Colorado mountains are something you must see.

But back in California there's nothing to lose,
'Cos everything's swinging there with Mary Hughes.

(Chris Dreja / Jim McCarty / Jeff Beck
/ Keith Relf / Paul Samwell-Smith)

You're looking my way,
That's good to see.
Well how I'm thinking,
Is it really me.
You'll give me something,
That [lights up all?]
It can't be just my,
My eyes you call.

I'd like to get to know you, sure,
And take this thing just one step more,
And find out just what it's all for,
But he's always there.

You're fixing my eyes,
With a constant gaze.
It could really have me,
In an utter daze.
Come a little closer,
He's not to see,
There's something going,
Between you and me.

I'd like to get to know you, sure,
And take this thing just one step more,
And find out just what it's all for,
But he's always there.

I'd like to get to know you, sure,
And take this thing just one step more,
And find out just what it's all for,
But he's always there.

He's always there.
He's always there.
He's always there.

ah-ah-ah......

How your restless hungry eyes,
Speak of cloudy summer skies.
The morning dew,
Turns into rain,
Lonely winds will call my name.

Dying leaves of seasons brown,
Losing life as they drift down.
Too soon in life,
Return to earth,
Only they can know their worth.

Distant dreams of things to be,
Wandering thoughts that can't be free.
I feel my mind,
Turning away,
To the darkness of my day.

(Chris Dreja / Jim McCarty / Jeff Beck
/ Keith Relf / Paul Samwell-Smith)

I want somebody here to tell me why,
There's always smoke up in the sky.
Please don't make me want to cry,
Detail has not been seen.
Summer trees should all be green,
Plain and green as they have been,
Sun don't ever change the scene,
Please never let them die.

What do you want?
What do you want?
What do you want?
What do you want?

Sounds which soar above my ears,
Will naturally precede in years,
They only cause a flood of tears,
I want to turn and run.
Don't need someone to make my fun,
Only need to see the sun,
I will not go and cause harm,
I cannot think that way.

What do you want?
What do you want?
What do you want?
What do you want?

Sit spellbound by a flickering screen,
Watch the ever changing scenes,
Listen to the rising screams,
Of children of today.
Lock your doors and stay within,
Upon your face the stupid grins,
Penalty for unrealised sins,
Committed on your way.

What do you want?
What do you want?
What do you want?
What do you want?

What do you want?
What do you want?

Ever since the world began,
Satan's followed every man.
Trapping evil if he can,
I tell you now his greatest plan.
Invented when I cannot tell,
Defied the thoughts of man so well.
Man wants money for his need,
But soon it sows its evil seed.
Unhappiness it only brings,
As man wants more and better things.
If not enough the evil lies,
But soon you'll find somebody dies.
Throughout the years there have been wars,
Power and richness have been the cause.
Trapped in money's evil net,
Man wants more than he can get.

You don't need money.
No, no, no, no,
You don't need money.
No, no, no, no,
You don't need money.
... etc.

It'll never bring you love,
No more than the sun above.
You'll never see the end,
The money you will surely spend.
But ask for help if you sin,
Reclaim yourself, what a state you're in.
The devil has you in his grasp,
There ain't no mercy you can ask.
More and more you will need,
You're strangled in the clutch of greed.
You can't get out, no place to go,
You sold your soul - the answer's no!

> You made it very clear
How you feel about
The way you put me down
Whenever I'm around
What you're thinking of
You're crying out for love
Crying out for love
Your bitter words today
Are another way
Of hiding how you feel
Hiding what is real
What you're thinking of
You're crying out for love
Crying out for love
The love you need so much
You push away
All the gold you touch
Might as well be clay
What you're thinking of
You're crying out for love
Crying out for love

For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
I'd give you everything and more, and that's for sure.
For your love.
I'd bring you diamond rings and things right to your door.
For your love.

To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.

For your love.
For your love.
For your love.

For your love, for your love,
I would give the stars above.

For your love, for your love,
I would give you all i could.

I'd give the moon if it were mine to give.
For your love.
I'd give the stars and the sun 'fore i live.
For your love.

To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.

Aboard a train
I met a dame
She was a hipster
Man a real gone dame
She wasn't pretty
For New York City
As we strut down on that ol' fairlane
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go

Get along
Sweet little woman get along
On your way
Get along
Sweet little woman get along
On your way
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go

The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go

I made a stop round Albuquerque
She must'a thought I was real gone jerk
Got off the train at El Paso
A' looking so good I couldn't let her go
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go

The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go

Shapes of things before my eyes,
Just teach me to despise.
Will time make men more wise?
Here within my lonely frame,
my eyes just heard my brain.
But will it seem the same?

(Come Tomorrow) Will I be older?
(Come Tomorrow) May be a soldier.
(Come Tomorrow) May I be bolder than today?

Now the trees are almost green.
But will they still be seen?
When time and tide have been.
Fall into your passing hands.
Please don't destroy these lands.
Don't make them desert sands.

Chorus, Lead.

Soon I hope that I will find,
Thoughts deep within my mind.
That won't displace my kind.

(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Cars and girls are easy come by in this day and age.
Laughing, joking, dreams, weed smoking, till I've spent my wage.
When I was young, people spoke of immorality.
All the things they said were wrong are what I want to be.

(Hey!) Over, under, sideways, down,
(Hey!) I bounce a ball that's square and round.
(Hey!) Over, under, sideways, down,
(Hey!) I bounce a ball that's square and round.
When will it end? (When will it end?)
When will it end? (When will it end?)

(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
I find comments 'bout my looks irrelativity.
Think I'll go and have some fun, 'cause it's all for free.
I'm not searchin' for a reason to enjoy myself.
Seems it's better done than argue with somebody else.

(Hey!) Over, under, sideways, down,
(Hey!) I bounce a ball that's square and round.

Can you judge a man
By the way he wears his hair?
Can you read his mind
By the clothes that he wears?
Can you see a bad man
By the pattern on his tie?

[Chorus]
Then Misty you're a better man than I
Yeah Misty You're a better man than I
Oh Misty You're a better man than I
Yeah Misty You're a better man than I

Could you tell a wise man
By the way he speaks or spells?
Is this more important
Than the stories that he tells?
And call a man a fool
If for wealth he doesn't strive

[Chorus]
Then Misty you're a better man than I
Yeah Misty You're a better man than I
Oh Misty You're a better man than I
Yeah Misty You're a better man than I

Could you condemn a man
If your faith he doesn't hold?
Say the color of his skin
Is the color of his soul?
Or could you say if men
For king and country all must die?

[Chorus]
Then Misty you're a better man than I
Yeah You're a better man than I
Oh Misty You're a better man than I
Yeah Misty You're a better man than I

Little games are for little boys
I'm growin' up and changin' all my toys
Aeroplanes, motor cars, goldfish, and old jam jars
I just don't play these games no more
Little games are for little boys
Lovin' games are for bigger boys
Parties in Chelsea flats mixin' with kinky cats
Are games I wanna play some more
Ooh what they're doin' to me
Darlin' its so plain to see
My tem'prature's risin' but that's not surprisin'
When you do what you do to me
Little games are for little boys
But I've found out there are other joys
Margaret, Josephine, Susie and Katherine

Smile on me baby,
Make me feel like summer's here.
Smile on me baby,
Make me feel good when you're near.

Prove it to me baby,
That our love is in the clear.
Walk with me baby,
Make me hold my head up high.

Walk with me baby,
Make me feel the greatest guy.
I'm gonna love you baby,
Love you till you cry.

Stay with me baby,
Make me always feel so fine.
Stay with me baby,
Make me always feel so fine,
So I can tell all the world,
You always gonna be mine.

Smile on me baby,
Make me feel like summer's here.
Smile on me baby,
Make me feel good when you're near.
Prove it to me baby,
That our love is in the clear.

Glimpses of clouds in a forest,
Can review well within us,
And to never linger on one is life,
Energy radiates from the source,

The life around us is but a reflection of our own,
Flowing within never-ending boundless infinity,
Time is just a cumular limit,
Which with one glimpse will overcome,

Will overcome,
Will overcome,
Will overcome,
Will overcome,
Will overcome,
Will overcome.

Well I've been running and a-hiding,
Trying to lose my mind.
Well I've been running and a-hiding,
Trying to lose my mind.

Ever since you told me,
That you weren't my kind.

Drinking muddy water,
I don't know how long for.
I been drinking muddy water,
I don't know how long for.

Since I been running, babe,
I been treating you like a dog.

I'm moving,
I'm gonna see the world while I can.
I'm moving,
I'm gonna be a well rounded man.
And there ain't no room for no-one else,
I've got to learn it all for myself.

No excess baggage,
There to worry me.
No excess baggage,
There to hurry me.

No excess baggage, girl,
I must roam,
All alone,
On my own,
I'm hungry,
I want to taste the fruits of the world.

So hungry,
And assure I do love you girl.
But if you're what I'm searching for,
My heart will lead me back to your door.

No excess baggage,
There to worry me.
No excess baggage,
There to hurry me.

I gotta roam,
All alone,
No excess baggage.

On my own.
I gotta roam,
No excess baggage.
All alone,
On my own.
No excess baggage.
I gotta roam,
No excess baggage.
On my own.

Stealin', stealin',
Mama, don't ya tell on me,
I'm stealing back to the way I used to be.
Well, put your arms around me,
Like a circle round the sun,
Now (they's got the blue)

We can have a little fun,
How glad it's you,
And not your sister with me now,
Saw her yesterday,
And she look's just like a

Stealin', stealin,
Mama, don't ya tell on me,
I'm stealing back to the way I used to be.
I'm stealin', stealin,
Mama, don't ya tell on me,

Well, sit beside me baby,
The sun is shining out now,
Just for you and I,
Look, I mean to walk you home,
Your mama's getting bad,
So I'd rather stay at home.

Stealin', stealin',
Mama, don't ya tell on me,
I'm stealing back to the way I used to be.

Gone, gone away,
Gone away,
Almost nothing to do.

Gone away,
Now I'm far from you,
Though I'm alone now,
And there's nobody near,
I hush my voice,
Lest they should hear

My prayers go up to the sky,
Deep within me I die,
I'll never cry,
No-one must see me this way.

Left, left to find,
Someone kind,
Who won't leave me behind,
Who will guide me,
When I am blind

Soothe my brow,
When thoughts hurt my brain
Help me love,
When faced with pain.

I long to find someone who,
Will remind me of you,
Only the black rose knows what I will do.

Silence, silence now,
Not a sound,
Stillness everywhere now,
And the trees,
To the wind gently bow

Only visions of the past and the gloom,
And for the moment you're in the room,
And just as flowers bloom and die,
No-one watching to cry

Only the black rose stands up to the sky.
Only the black rose stands up to the sky.
Only the black rose.

Little wooden soldier boy,
How he's bored to be a toy.
Sitting on the mantelpiece,
Was not his idea of peace.
So one night at half past one,
He ordered all the toys to come.
He told them all a good game to play,
Next day.

The teddy bears and wind-up toys,
Together made a lot of noise.
The other side formed into ranks,
Proud 'cause they had plastic tanks.
High up on the shelf to see,
The soldier had to jump with glee.
At last before his eyes he saw,
A real war.

With a battle raging on the floor,
The soldier boy was urging more.
Soon the floor was strewn with bits,
Fur and stuff and building kits.
The soldier boy was feeling high,
As smoke clouds rolled across the sky.
He gave a last triumphant cry,
And fell into the fire.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
She's the queen of Clapham.
Every night,
She goes out with men to trap 'em,
In her net,
Of ecstasy.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
There's no-one else quite like you.
If Josephine could,
She'd give you her blood.
I know that she would,
Love to.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
We love you.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
We love you to distraction.
Whatever she does,
The police will take no action.
They're all in love,
With Josephine.

It's right that Josephine,
Should do just as she pleases.
And whether or not,
You like what she's got,
She's guaranteed not,
To fail you.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
We love you.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
We love you.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,

You never talk straight to me,
It's all puzzles to me.
If there's sense in what you talk about,
I can never see.

If you don't want me to spend your life with you,
Go and find someone new.
'Cause I know there's so many better girls than you.
Puzzles, hanging on my mind now,
Puzzles, puzzles in my mind,
In my mind,
That's all I find,
In my mind.

Life's puzzles,
I will never know,
Which way to go straight.
Love, war, people arguing,
How can they know what to hate?

Ever since I began thinking,
I wondered why things were so.
But no matter how hard I contemplate,
Puzzles will never go.

Puzzles, hanging on my mind now,
Puzzles, puzzles in my mind,
In my mind,
That's all I find,
In my mind.
Oh, puzzles.

I remember the night,
I was holding you tight,
And I'll never forget how you were.
You had ? of blue,

And an umbrella too,
And a beautiful long piece of fur.
And as I held you close,
And you'd propose a toast,

With champagne; and I'd cry out "Yes sir!"
And we took all our cares,
Up the apples and pears,
And I'll always remember the night.

Velvet and lace,
What an awful disgrace,
With the man who was sick in your soup.
He was rude, wasn't he,

And I told him to flee,
But he gave me a punch in the tooth.
Then he left, but before,
All the brandy he poured,

Down your dress, and you raised the roof.
And we took all our cares,
Up the apples and pears,
How well I remember the night.

Repeat first four verses
I'll always remember the night.

The first little Indian gave squaw pretty feather
(Little Indian boy)
The second little Indian made her an Indian dollar
(Fighting over a squaw)
Well the third little Indian gave her moccasin leather
(Little Indian boy)
The squaw didn't like 'em at all

The fourth little Indian took her riding in his big canoe
(Little Indian boy)
The fifth little Indian took her down the waterfall
(Fighting over a squaw)
The sixth little Indian taught the squaw how to woo-woo
(Little Indian boy)
But the squaw didn't like 'em at all

One little, two little, three little Indians
(Keep us humming we're the ten little Indians)
Four little, five little, six little Indians
(Keep us humming we're the ten little Indians)
Seven little, eight little, nine little Indians
(Keep us humming we're the ten little Indians)
Ten little Indian boys

The seventh little Indian took her over to his teepee
(Little Indian boy)
The eighth little Indian tried to give her a love poem
(Fighting over a squaw)
The ninth little Indian said "You're my Kemosabe"
(Little Indian boy)
The squaw didn't like 'em at all

The tenth little Indian said it really didn't matter
(Little Indian boy)
He acted like himself and he didn't look at her
(Fighting over a squaw)
The squaw didn't care if he never did a thing
(Little Indian boy)
Cause she loved the tenth Indian boy

Loved the tenth Indian boy
Loved the tenth Indian boy
Loved the tenth Indian boy

When will the clouds all roll away?
When will the good people have their say?
I hope you're still round to see the day.

[Chorus: x2]
Take a while,
Think about it.

Who can tell what is up or down?
You can be the king or be the clown.
Then climb your tree, take a look around.

[Chorus]

Circles of life, an infinite plane,
That which is now now will be again.
Who can decide who is insane?

[Chorus]

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
She's the queen of Clapham.
Every night,
She goes out with men to trap 'em,
In her net,
Of ecstasy.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
There's no-one else quite like you.
If Josephine could,
She'd give you her blood.
I know that she would,
Love to.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
We love you.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
We love you to distraction.
Whatever she does,
The police will take no action.
They're all in love,
With Josephine.

It's right that Josephine,
Should do just as she pleases.
And whether or not,
You like what she's got,
She's guaranteed not,
To fail you.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
We love you.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,
We love you.

Goodnight sweet Josephine,
Goodnight sweet Josephine,

For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
I'd give you everything and more, and that's for sure.
For your love.
I'd bring you diamond rings and things right to your door.
For your love.

To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.

For your love.
For your love.
For your love.

For your love, for your love,
I would give the stars above.

For your love, for your love,
I would give you all i could.

For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
I'd give the moon if it were mine to give.
For your love.
I'd give the stars and the sun 'fore i live.
For your love.

To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.

For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.

Sick at heart and lonely, deep in dark despair.
When you want her only, tell me where is she where?
And if she says to you, that she don't love me.
Just give her my message, tell her of my plea.
And I know, if I could have her back again, I would never make her sad.
I got a heart full of soul. I got a heart full of soul.
She's been gone such a long time, longer than I can bear.
But if she says she wants me, tell her I'll be there.

And I know, if I could have her back again, I would never make her sad.
I got a heart full of soul. I got a heart full of soul.
Sick at heart and lonely, deep in dark despair.
When you want her only, tell me where is she where?
And if she says to you, that she don't love me.
Just give her my message, tell her of my plea.
And I know, if I could have her back again, I would never make her sad.
I got a heart full of soul. I got a heart full of soul.
I got a heart full of soul!

Can you judge a man
By the way he wears his hair?
Can you read his mind
By the clothes that he wears?
Can you see a bad man
By the pattern on his tie?

[Chorus]
Then Misty you're a better man than I
Yeah Misty You're a better man than I
Oh Misty You're a better man than I
Yeah Misty You're a better man than I

Could you tell a wise man
By the way he speaks or spells?
Is this more important
Than the stories that he tells?
And call a man a fool
If for wealth he doesn't strive

[Chorus]
Then Misty you're a better man than I
Yeah Misty You're a better man than I
Oh Misty You're a better man than I
Yeah Misty You're a better man than I

Could you condemn a man
If your faith he doesn't hold?
Say the color of his skin
Is the color of his soul?
Or could you say if men
For king and country all must die?

[Chorus]
Then Misty you're a better man than I
Yeah You're a better man than I
Oh Misty You're a better man than I
Yeah Misty You're a better man than I

See the stars come joining down from the sky,
Gently passing, they kiss your tears when you cry.
See the wind of summer blow your hair upon your head,
See the rain, the falling rain, it's rain.
Still I'm sad.

Oh my flowers, my tears just falling two days,
We are driving the night to find they are lost.
Flower, flower the wind is blowing,
Time into my heart.

When the wind blows hard, we are apart.
Still I'm sad,
Still I'm sad.
Still I'm sad.

Sick at heart and lonely, deep in dark despair.
When you want her only, tell me where is she where?
And if she says to you, that she don't love me.
Just give her my message, tell her of my plea.
And I know, if I could have her back again, I would never make her sad.
I got a heart full of soul. I got a heart full of soul.
She's been gone such a long time, longer than I can bear.
But if she says she wants me, tell her I'll be there.

And I know, if I could have her back again, I would never make her sad.
I got a heart full of soul. I got a heart full of soul.
Sick at heart and lonely, deep in dark despair.
When you want her only, tell me where is she where?
And if she says to you, that she don't love me.
Just give her my message, tell her of my plea.
And I know, if I could have her back again, I would never make her sad.
I got a heart full of soul. I got a heart full of soul.
I got a heart full of soul!

Aboard a train
I met a dame
She was a hipster
Man a real gone dame
She wasn't pretty
For New York City
As we strut down on that ol' fairlane
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go

Get along
Sweet little woman get along
On your way
Get along
Sweet little woman get along
On your way
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go

The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go

I made a stop round Albuquerque
She must'a thought I was real gone jerk
Got off the train at El Paso
A' looking so good I couldn't let her go
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go

The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go

I want somebody here to tell me why,
There's always smoke up in the sky.
Please don't make me want to cry,
Detail has not been seen.
Summer trees should all be green,
Plain and green as they have been,
Sun don't ever change the scene,
Please never let them die.

What do you want? [Repeat: x4]

Sounds which soar above my ears,
Will naturally precede in years,
They only cause a flood of tears,
I want to turn and run.
Don't need someone to make my fun,
Only need to see the sun,
I will not go and cause harm,
I cannot think that way.

What do you want? [Repeat: x4]

Sit spellbound by a flickering screen,
Watch the ever changing scenes,
Listen to the rising screams,
Of children of today.
Lock your doors and stay within,
Upon your face the stupid grins,
Penalty for unrealized sins,
Committed on your way.

What do you want? [Repeat: x6]
