    The Rover

    I've been to London, seen seven wonders. I know to trip is just to fall
    I used to rock it, sometimes I'd roll it. I always knew what it was for.

    There can be no denyin' that the wind 'll shake 'em down
    And the flat world's flyin'. There's a new plague on the land

    If we could just join hands (repeat 3 times)

    Traversed the planet when heaven sent me. I saw the kings who rule them all
    Still by the firelight and purple moonlight. I hear the rested rivers call
    And the wind is crying, from a love that won't grow cold
    My lover, she is lying, on the dark side of the globe

    If we could just join hands (repeat 3 times)

    You got me rockin' when I ought to be a-rollin'
    Darlin', tell me, darlin', which way to go
    You keep me rockin', baby, then you keep me stolen
    Won't you tell me, darlin', which way to go... that's right

    Oh how I wonder, oh how I worry and I would dearly like to know
    I've all this wonder of earthly plunder will it leave us anything to show

    And our time is flyin' see the candle burnin' low
    Is the new world rising, from the shambles of the old

    If we could just join hands.
     
     

    In My Time Of Dying

    In my time of dying, want nobody to mourn
    All I want for you to do is take my body home

    Well, well, well, so I can die easy (repeat 2 times)

    Jesus, gonna make up my dyin' bed.
    Meet me, Jesus, meet me. Meet me in the middle of the air
    If my wings should fail me, Lord. Please meet me with another pair

    Well, well, well, so I can die easy (repeat 2 times)

    Jesus, gonna make up.. somebody, somebody...
    Jesus gonna make up... Jesus gonna make you my dyin' bed

    Oh, Saint Peter, at the gates of heaven... Won't you let me in
    I never did no harm. I never did no wrong

    Oh, Gabriel, let me blow your horn. Let me blow your horn
    Oh, I never did, did no harm.

    I've only been this young once. I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong
    No, not once.

    Oh, I did somebody some good. Somebody some good...
    Oh, did somebody some good. I must have did somebody some good...

    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.

    Hear the angels marchin', hear the' marchin', hear them marchin',
    hear them marchin', the' marchin'

    Oh my Jesus... (repeat)

    Oh, don't you make it my dyin', dyin', dyin'... cough

    (That's gonna be the one, isn't it?)
    (Come have a listen, then.)
    (Oh yes, thank you.)
     
     

    Houses Of The Holy

    Let me take you to the movies. Can I take you to the show
    Let me be yours ever truly. Can I make your garden grow

    From the houses of the holy, we can watch the white doves go
    From the door comes Satan's daughter, and it only goes to show. You know.

    There's an angel on my shoulder, In my hand a sword of gold
    Let me wander in your garden. And the seeds of love I'll sow. You know.

    So the world is spinning faster. Are you dizzy when you're stoned
    Let the music be your master. Will you heed the master's call
    Oh... Satan and man.

    Said there ain't no use in crying. Cause it will only, only drive you mad
    Does it hurt to hear them lying? Was this the only world you had? Oh-oh

    So let me take you, take you to the movie. Can I take you, baby, to the show.
    Why don't you let me be yours ever truly. Can I make your garden grow
    You know.

    Come to me for service every hundred miles
    Baby, let me check your valves, fix your overdrive

    Makes me wonder what I did, before I got synchronized

    Talkin' 'bout love (repeat 3 times)

    Feather-light suspension, coils just couldn't hold
    I'm so glad I took a look inside your showroom doors

    Oh, I can't stop talkin' about love.
     
     

    Kashmir

    Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dream
    I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been
    To sit with elders of the gentle race, this world has seldom seen
    They talk of days for which they sit and wait and all will be revealed

    Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace, whose sounds caress my ear
    But not a word I heard could I relate, the story was quite clear
    Oh, oh.

    Oh, I been flying... mama, there ain't no denyin'
    I've been flying, ain't no denyin', no denyin'

    All I see turns to brown, as the sun burns the ground
    And my eyes fill with sand, as I scan this wasted land
    Trying to find, trying to find where I've been.

    Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace, like thoughts inside a dream
    Heed the path that led me to that place, yellow desert stream
    My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon, I will return again
    Sure as the dust that floats high and true, when movin' through Kashmir.

    Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails, across the sea of years
    With no provision but an open face, along the straits of fear
    Ohh.

    When I'm on, when I'm on my way, yeah
    When I see, when I see the way, you stay-yeah

    Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, when I'm down...
    Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, well I'm down, so down
    Ooh, my baby, oooh, my baby, let me take you there

    Let me take you there. Let me take you there
     
     

    In The Light

    And if you feel that you can't go on. And your will's sinkin' low
    Just believe and you can't go wrong.
    In the light you will find the road. You will find the road

    Oh, did you ever believe that I could leave you, standing out in the cold
    I know how it feels 'cause I have slipped through to the very depths of my soul.
    I just wanna show what I'd give you it is from every bend in the road
    Now listen to me
    Oh, whoa-whoa, as I was and really would be for you, too, honey
    As you would for me, oh, I would share your load.
    Let me share your load. Ooh, let me share, share your load

    And if you feel that you can't go on
    In the light you will find the road

    Though the winds of change may blow around you, but that will always be so
    When love is pain it can devour you, if you are never alone
    I would share your load. I would share your load
    Baby, let me, oh, let me

    In the light
    Everybody needs the light.
    In the light, in the light, in the light

    Light, light, light, in the light
    Light, light, light, in the light, ooh, yeah
    Light, light, light, in the light

    Down By The Seaside

    Down by the seaside. See the boats go sailin'
    Can the people hear, What the little fish are sayin'

    Oh, oh, the people turned away. Oh, the people turned away

    Down in the city streets, see all the folk go racin', racin'
    No time left, to pass the time of day

    The people turned away. The people turned away
    So far away, so far away

    See how they run, see how they run, see how they run, see how they run.

    Do you still do the twist
    Do you find you remember things that well
    I wanna tell you... Some go twistin' every day
    though sometimes it's awful hard to tell

    Out in the country, hear the people singin'
    Singin' 'bout their progress, knowin' where they're goin'

    Oh, oh, oh, oh, the people turned away
    Yes, the people turned away

    Sing loud for the sunshine, pray hard for the rain
    And show your love for Lady Nature. And she will come back again The people turned away
    The people turned away
     
     

    Ten Years Gone

    Then as it was, then again it will be
    An' though the course may change sometimes
    Rivers always reach the sea
    Blind stars of fortune, each have several rays
    On the wings of maybe, down in birds of prey
    Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didn't have to grow
    But as the eagle leaves the nest, it's got so far to go

    Changes fill my time, baby, that's alright with me
    In the midst I think of you, and how it used to be

    Did you ever really need somebody, And really need 'em bad
    Did you ever really want somebody, The best love you ever had
    Do you ever remember me, baby, did it feel so good
    'Cause it was just the first time, And you knew you would

    Through the eyes an' I sparkle, Senses growing keen
    Taste your love along the way, See your feathers preen
    Kind of makes makes me feel sometimes, Didn't have to grow
    We are eagles of one nest, The nest is in our soul

    Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me
    Never thought I'd see your face the way it used to be
    Oh darlin', oh darlin'

    I'm never gonna leave you. I never gonna leave
    Holdin' on, ten years gone
    Ten years gone, holdin' on, ten years gone
     
     

    Night Flight

    I received a message from my brother across the water
    He sat laughin' as he wrote the end's in sight
    So I said goodbye to all my friends
    And packed my hopes inside a matchbox
    'Cause I know it's time to fly

    Come on, meet me in the morning, Meet me in the middle of the night
    The morning light is comin', don't it make you wanna go and feel alright

    I just jumped a train that never stops,
    So know somehow they'll know I never finished payin' for my ride
    Just n' someone pushed a gun into my hand
    Tell me I'm the type of man to fight the fight that I'll require

    Come on, meet me in the morning, Meet me in the middle of the night
    The morning light is comin', don't it make you wanna go and feel alright

    Oh, mama, well I think it's time I'm leavin'
    Nothin' here to make me stay
    Whoa, mama, well it must be time I'm goin'
    They're knockin' down them doors
    They're tryin' to take me away

    Please Mr. Brakeman, won't you ring your bellAnd ring loud and clear
    Please Mr. Fireman, won't you ring your bell
    Tell the people they got to fly away from here

    I once saw a picture of a lady with a baby
    Suddenly they have a very, very special smile
    We are in the middle of a change in destination
    When the train stops, all together we will smile
    Oh, meet me in the morning. Won't you meet me in the middle of the night, night, night
    Everybody know the mornin' time is comin'
    Don't it make you wanna feel alright. Ah, ah, yeah
    Make me feel alright. Fly now, baby
    Get to fly, yeah. Fly now, baby
     
     

    The Wanton Song

    Silent woman in the night, you came, Took my seed from my shaking frame.
    Same old fire, another flame, And the wheel rolls on.

    Silent woman through the flames, you come, From the deep behind the sun
    Seems my nightmares, have just begun
    Left me barely holding on.

    With blazing eyes you see my trembling hand.
    When we know the time has come
    Lose my senses, lose command
    Feel your healing rivers run

    Is it every time I fall, That I think this is the one
    In the darkness can you hear me call
    Another day has just begun.

    Silent woman, my face is changed
    Some know in ways to come.
    Feel my fire needs a brand new flame
    And the wheels rolls on.... rolls on.

    Sick Again

    From the window of your rented limousine, I saw your pretty blue eyes
    One day soon you're gonna reach sixteen, Painted lady in the city of lies.

    Oh, do you know my name? Do I look the same
    You know I'm the one you want. I must be the one you need, yeah

    Clutching pages from your teenage dream In the lobby of the Hotel Paradise
    Through the circus of the L.A. queens. How fast your learn the downhill side

    Oh, do you know my name? Do I look the same
    You know I'm the one you want. I must be the one you need,.

    Lips like cherries and the brow of a queen, Come on, flash it in my eyes
    Said you dug me since you were thirteen,Then you giggle as you heave and sigh.

    Oh, do you know my name? Do I look the same
    You know I'm the one you want. I must be the one you need.

    Hours, hours, and the moments in between, Oh, baby, I couldn't count the times
    I've thought of comin' on a plane that's leavin', Baby, dry those silver eyes

    Oh, do you know my name? Do I look the same
    You know I'm the one you want. I must be the one you need,

    Ooh, that's right.
