Not just a fad cause it's been going on so long
All the surfers going strong
They said it wouldn't last too long
They'll eat their words with a fork and spoon
And watch 'em they'll hit the road and all be surfin' soon
And when they, catch a wave they'll be sittin' on top of the world

I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth
The north side of my town faced east, and east was facing south
And now you dare to look me in the eye
Those crocodile tears are what you cry
It's a genuine problem, you won't try
To work it out at all you just pass it by, pass it by

He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door
 
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
 
White lace and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was laid
 
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooh, what a lucky man he was

Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands

 

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away

 

I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you've decided to show me the same
No sweeping exit or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind


Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away

I took the horses up to the stall
Went to the barroom, ordered drinks for all
Three days in the saddle, You know my body hurt
It being summer, I took off my shirt
And I tried to wash off some of that dusty dirt

You see the world through your cynical eyes
You're a troubled young man I can tell
You've got it all in the palm of your hand
But your hand's wet with sweat and your head needs a rest
 
And you're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it
Why must you be such an angry young man
When your future looks quite bright to me

There's a place in the world for the angry young man
With his working class ties and his radical plans
He refuses to bend, he refuses to crawl
He's always at home with his back to the wall
And he's proud of his scars and the battles he's lost
And he struggles and bleeds as he hangs on the cross
And he likes to be known as the angry young man

He's not concerned with yesterday
He knows constant change is here today
He's noble enough to know what's right
But weak enough not to choose it
He's wise enough to win the world
But fool enough to lose it
He's a New World Man...

I was searchin' (searchin') on a one-way street
I was hopin' (hopin') for a chance to meet
I was waitin' for the operator on the line
(She's gone so long)
What can I do?
(Where could she be?)
Don't know what I'm gonna do
I gotta get back to you
 

You gotta slow down (slow down), sweet talkin' woman
You got me runnin', you got me searchin'
Hold on (hold on), sweet talkin' lover
It's so sad if that's the way it's over

Well I came upon a child of God, he was walking along the road
And I asked him, "Tell me where are you going?" This he told me:
Said, "I'm going down to Yasgur's farm, going to join in a rock and roll band.
Got to get back to the land, and set my soul free."

When you put your arms around me...I feel so satisfied
I want to love you forever...I just can't...I can't decide
Every time I move I lose...when I look I'm in
And every time I turn around...I'm back in love again
(right back, right back...in love again) Alright (seems like, seems like)
Back in love...again

You welcome me with open arms and open legs
I know only fools have needs, but this one never begs.
I don't really mind how much you love me
A little is alright
When you say, "Come over and spend the night"
Tonight ... tonight.

All over the country
I'm seeing it the same
Nobody's winning at this kind of game
We gotta do better, it's time to begin
You know all the answers, must come from within
So (ooh, ooh, ooh) come on and take a free ride
(Free ride)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh) Come on and sit here by my side
Come on and take a free ride

I can pull up by the curb,
I can make it on the road,
Goin' mobile
I can stop in any street
And talk with people that we meet
Goin' mobile
Keep me moving

Well the party was nice, the party was pumpin' (Hey, Yippie-Yi-Yo)
And everybody havin' a ball (Hah, ho, Yippie-Yi-Yo)
Until the fellas started name callin' (Yippie-Yi-Yo)
And the girls respond to the call
I heard a woman shout out

"Who let the dogs out?"
(Who, who, who, who)
Who let the dogs out?

Well, the joint was jumpin', going around and around
Hey, reelin' and a rockin', what a crazy sound
Well, they never stopped rockin' till the moon went down

Well, it sounds so sweet, I had to take me a chance
I rose out of me seat, Lord, I had to dance
Started moving my feet, well, a clapping my hands

The VCR and the DVD
There was none of that crap
Back in 1970
 
We didn't know about a
World Wide Web
It was a whole different game
Playin' back when
I was a kid
 
Want to get down in a cool way
Picture yourself on a beautiful day
Big bell bottoms and groovy long hair
Just walkin' in style with a portable CD player
 
No you'd listen to the music on the
AM radio AM radio
Yeah you could hear the music on the
AM radio AM radio

The first thing I remember
I was lying in my bed
I couldn't have been no more
Than one or two
I remember there's a radio
Comin' from the room next door
And my mother laughed
The way some ladies do
When it's late in the evening
And the music's seeping through

I remember, when I used to see you jumping rope
(Jumping rope up and down baby)
And I remember, when you got your first baby coach,
But you were young and didn't understand,
Now you're a woman and I'm a man,
And it's me that you're kissing,
Ain't it fun reminiscing.
Now our lives are not the same,
Our whole world has been rearranged.

Then jump 
For my love
Jump in 
And feel my touch
Jump if you want to taste my kisses in the night then
Jump, jump for my love
Jump, I know my heart can make you happy
Jump in, you know these arms can feel you up
Jump, if you want to taste my kisses in the night then
Jump, jump for my love

You'd like to show me all around
Thank you girl but I know this town
It's all right, hey lawdy mama, it's all right
Don't you know they're all the same,
Only difference is the name
It's all right, hey lawdy mama, it's all right
Three motels, dusty cars,
Movie shows and a dozen bars
It's all right, hey lawdy mama, it's all right.

Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here
You didn't have to make me a total disgrace
You didn't have to leave me with that beer in my face
Hey, hey, mama, what's the matter here
That's alright, it's awful dog-gone clear

Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
 
Mama, ooh 
Didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on
As if nothing really matters
