Satisfaction
( The Rolling Stones, "Out of Our Heads"
LP )
When I'm drivin' in my car
And the man come on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more
About some useless information
Tryin' mess my imagination
When I'm watchin' my TV
And a man comes on to tell me
How white my shirts can be
But, he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
The same cigarettes as me
When I'm ridin' around the globe
And I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that
And I'm tryin' to make some boy
Baby, baby, baby, come back
'Cause you see I'm on a losing streak
When I'm ridin' a round the globe
And I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that
And I'm tryin'
And I'm tryin'
Kingsport town
( Bob Dylan, "The Bootleg Series"
Box Set )
The winter wind
Is blowing so strong
My hands have got
No gloves
Wish to my sole
That I could have
The boy I'm dreaming of
Don't you remember me, babe
I remember you quite well
Caused me to leave
All of New York town
With a high sheriff on my tail
A high sheriff on my tail, boys,
High sheriff on my trail.
All because I've fallen for
A curly headed dark-eyed boy
Who's gonna stroke
Your coal black hair
And your sandy colored skin
Who's gonna walk you side by side
And tell you everything is alright
Who's gonna look
You straight in the eye
And hold your bad luck hand
Who's gonna walk you
Who's gonna talk to you
And who's gonna be your woman
The winter wind
Is blowing so strong
My hands have got
No gloves
Don't you remember me, babe
I remember you quite well
Troubled waters
( Michael Hurley, "Armchair Boogie"
LP )
I must be
One of the devil's daughters
They look at me with scorn
I'll never hear their horn
Sometimes
It's like being in chains
Sometimes I hang my head
In chains
When people see me
They scandalize my name
I'm going down
To the devil's daughter
I'm gonna drown
In that troubled water
It's coming round my soul
It's way beyond control
I must be one
I must be one
I must be
One of the devil's daughters
They look at me with scorn
I'll never hear their horn
Sometimes it's like
Being in chains
Sometimes I hang my head
In chains
When people see me
They scandalize my name
I'm going down
To the devil's daughter
I'm gonna drown
In that troubled water
It's coming round my soul
It's way beyond control
I must be one
I must be one
I must be
Naked if I want to
( Moby Grape, "Moby Grape" LP )
Would you let me walk down your street
Naked if I want to
Can I pop fireworks on the fourth of every single July
Can I buy an amplifier, oh, on time
My sweet time
Well I ain't got no money
I will pay this time
And I ain't got no money
But I will pay you before I die
And would you let me walk down your street
Naked if I want to
Can I pop fireworks on the fourth of every single July
Can I buy an aeroplane while i'm high in all the sky
And I got no mercy
I will pay this time
And I got no mercy
I will pay you before I die
Swee dee dee
( Michael Hurley, "Armchair Boogie"
LP )
You wash them clothes
Swee dee dee
And hang em on the line
I can see by the way
You wash them clothes
Your cookin' must be fine
I'm with you in the morning
'Til the break of day
And I know everybody
Has a little hard luck
Sometimes
And I know lately
I've been havin' mine
We used to live
In a fleabag apartment
You know the kind
And he come home and he'd say to me
"We gotta leave, leave, leave the city"
You wash them clothes
Swee dee dee
And hang 'em on the line
I can see by the way you wash them clothes
Your cookin' must be fine
I'm with you in the morning
Unil the break of day
I know everybody
Has a little hard luck
Sometimes
I know lately
I've been havin' mine.
In This Hole
( Cat Power, "What Would the Community
Think?" LP )
In this hole we have fixed
We get further and further and further
Further from the world
We must do
We must do
I saw you asleep beside a wall
Your skull inside the wall
Your mind blackened by
All the thought of God
One absence of truth
One horrible thing you saw
What you truly wanted to become
And who you thought I was
Who you thought I was
In this hole we have fixed
We get further and further
Further from the world
We must do
We must do
I saw you outside that wall
The skull outside that wall
Your mind finally free
And all the thoughts you thought
And all the thought of God
I found a reason
( Velvet Underground, "Loaded"
LP )
Oh I do believe
In all the things you say
What comes is better than what came before
And you'd better come come, come come to
me
Better come come, come come to me
Better run, run run, run run to me
Better come
Oh I do believe
In all the things you say
What comes is better that what came before
And you'd better run run, run run to me
Better run, run run, run run to me
Better come, come come, come come to me
You'd better run
Wild is the wind
( Nina Simone, "Wild is the Wind"
LP )
Love me, love me
Say you do
Let me fly away
With you
We're creatures of the wind
Wild is the wind
Give me more than one grasp
To satisfy this hungryness
We're creatures of the wind
Wild is the wind
You touch me
I hear the sound of mandolines
You kiss me
With your kiss my life begins
Like a leaf clings to a tree
Baby please cling to me
We're creatures of the wind
Wild is the wind
You touch me
I hear the sound of mandolins
And you kiss me
With your kiss my life begins
Love me, love me
Say you do
Let me fly away
With you
Red apples
( Smog, "Red Apple Falls" LP )
I went down to the river
To meet the widow
She gave me an apple
And it was red
I slept in her black arms
For a century
She wanted nothing in return
I gave her nothing in return
The ghost of her husband
Beautiful as a horse
Pulled up an apple cart
Full of millions of red apples for us
Full of millions of red apples for us
I went down to the river
To meet the widow
She gave me an apple
And it was red
I slept in her black arms
For a century
She wanted nothing in return
I gave her nothing in return
I went down to the river
To meet the widow
Paths of victory
( Bob Dylan, outtake from "The Times
They Are A-Changin'" Sessions )
The trail is dark and dusty
The road is kinda rough
But the clearer road up yonder
With the cinders on the side.
Trails of troubles
And your roads of battle,
They lead paths of victory
We shall walk
I walked down to the valley
Turned my head up high.
Seen that silver linin'
That was hangin' in the sky
Trails of troubles
And your roads of battle,
They lead paths of victory
We shall walk
The mountain was a movin'
The hummin' of its wheels,
Told me of the new day
it was coming across the fields
Trails of troubles
And your roads of battle,
They lead paths of victory
We shall walk
The gravel road is bumpy,
It's a hard old road to ride,
But the good road is a-waitin'
And the boys it ain't far off.
Trails of troubles
And your roads of battle,
They lead paths of victory
We shall walk
Salty dog
( Papa Charlie Jackson "Complete Chronological
Recordings, Vol. 1 (1924-1926)" )
Salty dog, salty dog
I don't wanna be your Annie doll
Honey let me be your salty dog
Candyman
Two old maids
Sittin' in the sand
One were a she
The other were a man
Salty dog
Candyman
Worst day I ever had in my life
My best friend caught him kissin his wife
Salty dog
Candyman
Salty dog, salty dog
I don't wanna be your Annie doll
Honey let me be your salty dog
Candyman
Sea of love
( Phil Phillips & the Twilights )
Come with me
My love
To the sea
The sea of love
I wanna tell you
How much
I love you
Do you remember
When we met
That's the day
I knew you were mine
I wanna tell you
How much
I love you
Come with me
My love
To the sea
The sea of love
I wanna tell you
How much
I love you
