@ALBUM: Van Morrison His Band And The Street Choir
All songs by Van Morrison, 1970
@SONG: Domino
Don't Want To Discuss It
I think it's time for a change
You may get disgusted
And think i'm strange
In that case I'll go undergound
Get some heavy rest
Never have to worry
About what is worst and what is best
Chorus:
I said oh oh Domino
Roll me over Romeo
There you go
I said oh oh Domino
Roll me over Romeo
There you go
I said oh oh Domino
Oh oh Domino
There's no need for argument
There's no argument at all
And if you never hear from him
That just Means he didn't call
Or vice versa
That depends on where ever you're at
And if you never hear from me
That just means I would rather not
Chorus

@SONG: Crazy Face
All the people are waiting for crazy face
He said he'd meet them at his favourite place
Dressed in black satin, white linen and lace
With his head held high and a smile on his face
He said:
Ladies and gentlemen, the prince is late
As he stood outside the church yard gate
And polished up on his .38 and said
I got it from Jesse James
--------------------------------------------
@SONG: Give Me A Kiss (Just One Sweet Kiss)
Baby just one sweet kiss,
Honey from your sweet lips
Baby just one sweet kiss,
Honey from your sweet lips
That's all I want, that's all I need
I'm satisfied
Baby just one of your smiles
You know makes it all worthwhile
Baby just one of your smiles
You know makes it all worthwhile
We could go walking down the lane
Together hand in hand
But if you think
That it's gonna rain
We'll stay at home
And listen to the band
Baby just one sweet kiss
Honey from your sweet lips
Baby just one of your smiles
You know makes it all worthwhile
That's all I want, that's all I need
I'm satisfied
--------------------------------------------
@SONG: I've Been Workin'
I've been workin'
I've been workin' so hard
I've been workin'
I've been workin' so hard
When I come home
I make love to you, make love to you
I've been grindin'
I've been grindin' so long
I've been grindin'
I've been grindin' so long
I been up the thruway,
Down the thruway
Up the thruway, down the thruway,
Up the thruway, down, up down, back
Up again
I said woman, woman, woman, woman, woman
Make me feel alright
I said woman, woman, woman, woman, woman
Make me feel alright
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
--------------------------------------------
@SONG: Call Me Up In Dreamland
Well I've tried and I've tried
But the river seems so wide
And my head hurts and my hands are tied
And it's so hard
When you're standing on the yard
Every time your number comes around
Chorus:
Call me up in dreamland
Radio to me man
Get the message to me
Let your river roll
Never to grow old
On a saxophone
>From the airport to the plane
Way to the railroad train
Why don't we take it from the top
And start all over again
Every time you hear that whistle blow
You know you gotta put on your show
Every time your number comes around
Chorus
From the car to the bar
Why don't you pour it in a jar
Put a label on it
And send it to the lost and found
You gotta get it on your brain
Before you go insane
Every time your number comes around
Chorus
--------------------------------------------
@SONG: I'll Be Your Lover, Too
I'll be your man
I'll understand
And do my best to take good care of you
Yes I will
You'll be my queen
I'll be your king
And I'll be your lover too
Derry down green
Colors my dream
A dream that's daily coming true
When day is through
I will come to you
And tell you of your many charms
You'll look at me
Whit eyes that see
And melt into my waiting arms
And so I come
To be the one
Who's always standing close to you
Reach out for me
So I can be
The one who's always reaching out for you
You'll be my queen
I'll be you king
And I'll be your lover too
--------------------------------------------
@SONG: Blue Money
The photographer smiles
Take a break for a while
Take a rest, do your very best
Take five, honey
You search in your bag
Light up a fag
Think it's a drag, but you're so glad
To be alive honey
Do do you do ... etc.
Well the cameraman smiles
Take a break for a while
Take a rest, do your very best
Take five, honey
You search in your bag
Light up a fag
Think it's a drag, but you're so glad
To be alive honey
When this is all over
You'll be in clover
We'll go out and spend
All of your blue money
Do do you do ... etc.
Blue money
Breau money
Juice money
Loose money
Blue money, honey
Breau money
--------------------------------------------
@SONG: Virgo Clowns
Let us free you from the pain
Let us see you smile again
Let us unlock all the chains
You're brocken-hearted
Let us help you to forget
Let us help you unlock it
It's not nearly time to quit
You've only started
Chorus:
You gotta
Sit down funny face
Let you laughter fill the room
Light up your golden smile
Take away all my misery and gloom
Let you laughter fill the room
Let you laughter fill the room
Let us shake you by the hand
Let us help you understand
Take your head out of the sand
And shake it free now
Let us help you to go on
We are here to lean upon
Now you know exactly who
You want to be now
Come on
Chorus
Let us lift you up on high
See the twinkle in your eye
Raise your head up to the sky
And say it's easy
Hey let the trumpets ring it
Let the angels sing it
Let your pretty feet go dancing
Let your worn out mind go prancing
And
Chorus
--------------------------------------------
@SONG: Gypsy Queen
Dance on Gypsy Queen
If it's all night,
It's alright
Rave on, let your love
Come tumbling down
If you let your love come tumbling down,
It's alright
Dance on, you know it's all right
Gypsy Queen
Rave on, there beneath the silvery moon
Don't stop your carburetor
Let your car run
And if it starts to rain
Keep on dancin in the rain
And if it's all night,
It's alright
Ohh la la la la la la la la la la
Dance dance dance the night away
Come on come on let me hear you say
You're gonna dance on Gypsy Queen
Stars shine down on you
And it's alright
Ooowee I wanna throw my arms around you
I'm so glad I've found you
Gypsy Queen
--------------------------------------------
@SONG: Sweet Jannie
Oh Sweet Jannie girl won't you come out tonight
Oh Sweet Jannie girl won't you come out tonight
I want to take you walkin way out in the clear moonlight
Oh Baby come on and take me by my hand
Oh Baby come on and take me by my hand
I don't want to stop walkin till ew
Get up to the Preacher Man
I've been in love with you baby
Ever since you were in Sunday School
I've been in love with you baby
Ever since you were in Sunday School
And I knew right down there and then
I just wanted to be your fool
--------------------------------------------
@SONG: If I Ever Needed Someone
Chorus:
Lord if I ever needed someone I need you
Lord if I ever needed someone I need you
To see me through the daytime
And through the long lonely night
To lead me through the darkness
And on into the light
To stand with me when I'm troubled
And help me through my strife
When times get so uncertain to turn you
To you in my young life
Chorus
Someone to hold onto
And keep me form all fear
Someone to be my guiding light
And keep me ever dear
To keep me from my selfishness
To keep me from my sorrow
To lead me on to givingness
So I can see a new tomorrow
Chorus
Someone to walk with
Someone to hold my hand
Someone to talk with
Someone to understand
To call on when I need you
And I need you very much
To open up my arms to you
And feel it and to keep it
And care for it and keep it with me
Never to grow old
Chorus
--------------------------------------------
@SONG: Street Choir
Street choir sing me the song for the new day
Don't make it long and remember to sing it the old way
Let your voice ring, let it all out in the street now
My fun, will be this one to complete now
Chorus: Why did you leave America
Why did you let me down
And now that things seem better off
Why do you come around
You know i just can't see you now
In my new world crystal ball
You know i just can't free you now
That's not my job at all
Move it on up, move it on up by the window
Magnificent flow, let it all go in the moonglow
I'll take the wine, i'll take the wine in the grave
Ask you the time, and just send the bill to my baby
Chorus
