I can hear the cities calling
Come on down I can feel you falling
Happening for all of us to see
See the deepening cement hollow
Reaching out for those who follow
Hunkering on far too many lies
It's no surprise
I want to get away and live my life
In the rivers and trees
I want to spend my days making wine
And be free (be free, be free) and be free -
Buffalo Soldier, Dreadlocked Rasta
There was a Buffalo Soldier in the heart of America
Stolen from Africa, brought to America
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival -
Truckin', up to Buffalo
Been thinkin', you got to mellow slow Takes time, you pick a place to go, and just keep truckin' on
Sittin' and starin' out of the hotel window Got a tip they're gonna kick the door in again
I'd like to get some sleep before I travel, But if you got a warrant, I guess you're gonna come in

See, don't ever set me free
I always want to be by your side
Girl, you really got me now
You got me so I can't sleep at night
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, you really got me now
You got me so I don't know what I'm doin', now
Oh yeah, you really got me now
You got me so I can't sleep at night -
On the Sunday morning sidewalks, wishin' Lord, that I was stoned
'Cause there's something in a Sunday, makes a body feel alone
And there's nothin' short of dyin', half as lonesome as the sound
On the sleepin' city side walks, Sunday mornin' comin' down -
The traffic lights—they turn, uh, blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sags downstream
"Cause the life that lived is—is dead
And the wind screams, "Mary!" -
Ev'ry year along about this time it all goes dry
There's nothing round for love or money
That'll get you high
Henry got pissed off and said he'd run to Mexico
To see if he could come back holdin'
Twenty keys of gold
Now the road to Acapulco is very hard indeed
And it isn't any better if you haven't any weed
Henry's driving hard and straight
On twisty mountain roads
There's fifty people waiting back
At home for Henry's load -
Somewhere along the lonely road I had tried to find ya
Day after day on the windy road I had walked behind ya
Easy livin and I've been forgiven
Since you've taken your place in my heart
Waiting, watching
Wishing my whole life away
Dreaming, thinking
Ready for my happy day
And some easy livin'! -
It ain't the first time baby
Baby it won't be the last
I'd better get the boys round And do some drinkin' fast
Cause she's gone, gone, gone I don't know if I'm happy I don't know if I'm sad
She's gone gone gone I don't know if I'll cry I don't know if I'll die laughin'
-
Up go the flaps, down go the wheels
Hope you got your heat turned on, baby
Hope they've finally fixed your automobile
Hope it's better when we meet again, babe
Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like
Turn this crazy bird around
Should not have got on this flight tonight
Should not have got on this flight tonight -
Sweet child in time, you'll see the line
Line that's drawn between the good and the bad
See the blind man shooting at the world
Bullets flying, ooh taking toll
If you've been bad - Oh Lord I bet you have
And you've not been hit oh by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes, aahaouho bow your head
Wait for the ricochet -
in the attic
lights
voices scream
nothin' seen
real's the dream
leaving the things that are real behind
leaving the things that you love from mind
all of the things that you learned from fears
nothin' is left for the years
[repeat chorus]
toys, toys, toys
in the attic -
I've got to cool myself down stompin' around
Thinkin' some words I can't name ya
Meet ya halfway got nothin' to say
Still I don't s'pose I can blame ya
Seems to me you don't wanna talk about it
Seems to me you just turn your pretty head
Walk Away -
I'm-a through with romance, I'm a-through with love
I'm through with a-countin' the stars above
And here's the reason that I'm so free
My lovin' baby is through with me
Bye bye love
Bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness
I think I'm-a gonna cry-y -
You don't have to say that you love
If you don't mean it
You'd better believe
If you need me
Or you just wanna bleed me
You'd better stickin' your dagger in someone else
So I can leave
Set me free
(Yeah)
Right on, straight ahead
Stay up and straight ahead
Freedom -
The sun's still shining in the big blue sky
But it don't mean nothing to me
Oh let the rain come down
Let the wind blow through me
I'm living in an empty room
With all the windows smashed
And I've got so little left to lose
That it feels just like I'm walking on broken glass -
When the wagons leave the city For the forest, and further on
Painted wagons of the morning Dusty roads where they have gone

I was thinking of going to Arby's for the fish sandwich. Maybe not now.
Actually, their fish sandwich is pretty good, better than the other fast food joints. The brisket sandwich is good also, 'cept they are kind stingy with the meat. Overall if I were, to go to a fast food place, I would choose Arbys or Wendys, McD's, Burger King, taco bell are all nasty. A good local deli or family diner food will trump any fast food joint.

I'm home grown, growin' my own and I need ya Need ya to beg my pardon, to tend my garden Flowers, she's sittin' for poses She wants me to sing my song Hours, she's like a stoned Moses Guess I'll sing along

Now that's been fifty years ago an' if you go by there yet
There's a spot in the yard in the back of that shack
Where the ground is always wet
And on certain nights if the moon is right
Down by that dark footpath
You can hear three young men screaming
And you can hear one old man laugh -
I pounced
And I pounced again
Great googly-moogly
I jumped up 'n down on the chest of the...
I injured the fur trapper
Well, he was very upset, as you can understand
And rightly so
Because
The deadly Yellow Snow Crystals
Had deprived him of his sight
And he stood up
And he looked around
And he said:
I can't see-

I looked out this morning and the sun was gone
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away -
I've been downhearted baby I've been down,
I've been down hearted baby
Ever since the day we met, ever since the day we met
Am I alive or thoughts that drift away?
Does summer come for everyone? Can humans do as prophets say? And if I die before I learn to speak Can money pay for all the days I lived awake but half asleep?
Do do do
Do do do
Do do do

Skin against skin blood and bone
You're all by yourself but you're not alone
You wanted in and now you're here
Driven by hate consumed by fear
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor

I thought I heard a young man mourn this morning
I thought I heard a young man mourn today
I thought I heard a young man mourn this morning
I can't walk you out in the morning dew today
Walk me out in the morning dew my honey
Walk me out in the morning dew today
I'll walk you out in the morning dew my honey
I guess it doesn't really matter anyway
