Where the river flows, where the river flows.
I was walkin' the main road, comin' into town,
I came upon a stranger, lying on the ground.
He said ";I been in prison, and now I'm on the run,
I'm feelin' kinda weary, gotta make it home.";
CHORUS:
Where the river flows, where the water goes,
I'll be over there, waitin' over there, where the river flows.
Well I didn't have a lot to give, but I gave him what I could,
Listened while he talked about the bad times and the good.
And early in the mornin', I took an old man home,
Left him by the river, left him all alone.
CHORUS
CHORUS
CHORUS

He take the thunder from the mountain
He take the lightning from the sky
He bring the strong man to his bended knee
He make the young girls mama cry
You got to hidey-hide
You got to jump and run
You got to hidey hidey-hide
The old man's down the road
He got the voices speakin' riddles
He got the eye as black as coal
He got a suitcase covered with rattlesnake hide
And he stand right in the road
You got to hidey-hide
You got to jump and run away
You got to hidey hidey-hide
The old man's down the road
He make the river call your lover
He make the barking of the hound
Put the shadow across the window
When the old man comes around
You got to hidey-hide
You got to jump and run again
You got to hidey hidey-hide
The old man's down the road
The old man is down the road
The old man is down the road

I lay here at night, toss and I turn, lovin' you so, how my heart yearns,
Honey, you're the reason I don't sleep at night.
A-justa walkin' the floor, thinkin' of you, smoke cigarettes, and drink all day too,
Honey, you're the reason I can't sleep at night.
I'm bettin' you're not losin' sleep over me, but if I'm wrong don't fail to call,
Come over and keep me-hee company.
Sometimes I go for a walk, look at the moon, strum my guitar to some old lonesome tune,
Honey, you're the reason I can't sleep at night.
I'm bettin' you're not losin' sleep over me, yeah but if I'm wrong don't fail to call,
Come over and keep me-hee company.
Sometimes I go for a walk, look at the moon, strum my guitar and sing out of tune,
Honey, you're the reason I can't sleep at night.
Honey, you're the reason I can't sleep at night.
Honey, you're the reason I can't sleep at night.

(omitting the background ";chorus";)
I'm workin' on a building, I'm workin' on a building,
I'm workin' on a building, for my Lord, for my Lord.
If IIIIIIIIIIIIII were a drunkard, tell you what I'd do,
I'd quit my drinkin', and work on a building too.
CHORUS:
I'm workin' on a building, I'm workin' on a building,
I'm workin' on a building, for my Lord, for my Lord.
It'a a Holy Ghost building, It'a a Holy Ghost building,
It'a a Holy Ghost building, for my Lord, for my Lord.
If IIIIIIIIIIIIII were a gambler, tell you what I'd do,
I'd quit my gamblin', and I'd work on a building too.
CHORUS
If IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII were a preacher, tell you what I'd do,
I'd keep on preachin', and I'd work on a building too.

CHORUS:
Violence, (oh no!) is golden. Aa-aa-aa-aa-ah!
Violence, (oh no!) is golden. Aa-aa-aa-aa-ah!
Pass another plate of shrapnel, sprinkle it with TNT;
Gotta have another grenade salad, split it with your enemy.
Gotta sell another Uzi, maybe couple 44 Mags,
Got a wife and a kid to support, and a payment on the Jag.
Won't you try this personal bazooka, make you feel like a man,
Show the little girls what's what by the size of the thunder in your hands.
Take a pocketful of Teflon bullets, maybe 'nother Tommy gun,
Gotta keep stuff movin' out the door, got a business to run.
Take it from me, son - you can have a lot of fun!
CHORUS
CHORUS
Pass another fleet of B-1 bombers, grab an M-16,
Buildin' Chevies was never the fun of buildin' up the war machine.
Got a rocket in my pocket and it's ready, do you think we can deal?
Got a year-end sale goin' on, you can see the appeal;
'Cause I'm sellin' both sides of the fence, that be the name of the game,
I don't care about your silly little struggle, money's colored all the same.
Take a handful of Star Wars missiles, maybe super laser gun,
Gotta keep stuff movin' out the door, got a business to run.
Take it from me, son - we can have a lot of fun!
CHORUS
CHORUS
CHORUS

(was originally ";Zanz Kant Danz";)
CHORUS:
Vanz can't dance, but he'll steal your money,
Watch him or he'll rob you blind. (X 4)
CHORUS
Out in the street a crowd is gatherin',
Pushed down by the heat of the building, they're wantin' to dance.
Makin' their way up the street, a boy with a pig and a radio;
Little Billy can work on the crowd, put 'em into a trance,
For the little pig Vanz.
CHORUS
You're watchin' 'em dance, not a care in the world;
So Billy and Vanz get busy, they're makin' their move;
The little pig knows what to do, he's silent and quick, just like Oliver Twist;
Before it's over, your pocket is clean,
A four-legged thief paid a visit on you.
CHORUS
CHORUS
CHORUS

He take the thunder from the mountain, he take the lightning from the sky,
He bring the strong man to his begging knee, he make the young girl's mama cry.
You got to hidey-hide, you got to jump and run;
You got to hidey-hidey-hide, the Old Man is down the road.
He got the voices speak in riddles, he got the eye as black as coal,
He got a suitcase covered with rattlesnake hide, and he stands right in the road.
You got to hidey-hide, you got to jump up run away;
You got to hidey-hidey-hide, the Old Man is down the road.
Aaah!
He make the river call your lover, he make the barking of the hound,
Put a shadow 'cross the window, when the Old Man comes around.
You got to hidey-hide, you got to jump and run again;
You got to hidey-hidey-hide, the Old Man is down the road.
The Old Man is down the road.
Aaah!
You got ta, you got ta, you got ta, hidey-hidey-hide!

Sometimes I think life is just a rodeo,
The trick is to ride and make it to the bell.
But there is a place, sweet as you will ever know,
In music and love, and things you never tell.
You see it in their face, secrets on the telephone,
A time out of time, for you and no one else.
CHORUS:
Hey let's go all over the world,
Rock and Roll Girls, Rock and Roll Girls.
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
If I had my way, I'd shuffle off to Buffalo;
Sit by the lake, and watch the world go by.
Ladies in the sun, listenin' to the radio,
Like flowers on the sand, a rainbow in my mind.
CHORUS
CHORUS
CHORUS
Yeah, yeah yeah!

CHORUS:
Well, today I started lovin' you again,
I'm right back where I've really always been.
I got over you just long enough, to let my heartache mend,
Then today, I started lovin' you again.
What a fool I was to think I could get by,
With only these few million tears I've cried.
I should have known the worst was yet to come,
And that cryin' time for me, had just begun.
CHORUS

CHORUS:
Soda Pop, Soda Pop, everybody want to make it to the top. (X4)
CHORUS
Take a million dollars, baby, put it in my hand;
Put my favorite retouched photo on the soda can.
Put my face on television, say my name a lot; (lot lot lot)
Show your cola in every household, give it all you got;
Better strike while the iron's hot.
CHORUS
There's a generation out there, waitin' to be tapped;
If we play our cards right, baby, we'll be sittin' fat.
Play a little rock 'n roll music, tease 'em with a tune;
Show a couplea old time pictures from the baby boom,
An' suck 'em in while I croon.
CHORUS
CHORUS
CHORUS
Gimme that, gimme that, money, money, money....

Mama, come look quick - there's a light up in the sky;
I see the silent ship, and it's calling you and I;
And if you listen close, the reasons all come clear;
I'm ready now to go, there's nothing left to fear.
Oh there's nothing left to fear.
Leavin' all of this pain behind, gonna sail away;
Lettin' all of these chains unwind, gonna steal away.
Mama, come look quick - do I see an open door?
The passageway is lit, an' it's time to get on board.
What wonders we will see, what beauty to my eyes;
So come along with me, across the rainbow sky,
Across the rainbow sky.
Leavin' all of this pain behind, gonna sail away;
Lettin' all of these chains unwind, gonna fly away;
Makin' over this troubled mind, gonna wash away;
Leavin' all of this doubt behind, gonna sail away.
Mama, come look quick - there's a light up in the sky;
I see the silent ship, and it's calling you and I.

CHORUS:
Oh the midnight, need a searchlight.
Oh the midnight, need a searchlight.
I walk along the rocky shore, the place I lost myself;
I search the water, look in the sky, I hear the cries for help.
I trace my footsteps down to the sea, but then the path disappears;
Here in the darkness, I'm runnin' blind,
Been stumblin' for all of these years.
CHORUS
What was the demon that made me run, can I ever hope to understand?
I hear my voice, echoes on the wind; I try to reach out with my hand.
Without a light, I might be here forever, lost for all eternity;
There in the darkness, slippin' through my fingers,
The face that smiles back is me.
CHORUS
CHORUS
CHORUS

Just because I asked a friend about her, just because I spoke her name somewhere,
Just because I dialled her number by mistake today, she thinks I still care.
Just because I haunt the same old places, where the memory of her lingers everywhere,
Just because I'm not the happy guy I used to be, she thinks I still care.
Oh if she's happy thinkin' I still need her, then let that silly notion bring her cheer,
Oh how could she ever be so foolish, and where would she get such an idea?
Just because I asked a friend about her, just because I spoke her name somewhere,
Just because I saw her, then went all to pieces, she thinks I still care.
She thinks I still caaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaare.

CHORUS:
Please help me, I'm fallin' in love with you,
Close the door to temptation, don't let me walk through,
For I shouldn't want you, but darlin' I do.
Please help me, I'm fallin' in love with you.
Please help me, I'm fallin', and that would be sin,
Close the door to temptation, don't let me walk in,
Turn away from me darlin', I'm beggin ya to,
Please help me, I'm fallin' in love with you.
CHORUS
Please help me, I'm fallin' in love with you.

Oh babe I wonder, just how we ever,
Got so far apart;
And it seems like just the other day we were happy,
Holdin' hands in the dark.
Here I'm standin' out in the rain,
With a heart full of pain.
CHORUS: Baby here I am, knockin' on your door.
Baby here I am, knockin' on your door.
Ooh! Oh girl I'm beggin', hear what I'm sayin',
Don't send me away.
Just what I'm feelin', I got to tell ya,
Don't say it's too late.
I'm walking up and down the street,
Just tryin' to get my nerve up.
CHORUS
Ooh, Lord!
Ooh baby, babe, I want ya, want you,
Gotta keep you for all time.
And I think I'm goin' crazy over you,
'Cause I got to have you, got to have you,
CHORUS
Pow! Just think it over, whoa babe, I know you
Will see what I mean.
Try to remember, when we're together,
How good life can be.
I'm walkin' up and down the street,
Just tryin' to get my nerve up.
CHORUS
Here I am, here I am knockin' on your door.
Here I am, here I am knockin' on your door.
Justa justa knockin', justa justa knockin' on your door.
Justa justa justa knockin', babe.
Justa justa justa justa justa knockin', babe

My oh my, what's a guy to do?
The time is right, time to make a move;
This is hard to take, I can hardly wait!
I can't help myself.
Pins and needles, nervous alley cat;
I can't sit down, I'm burnin' up the track;
Like a runaway truck, I just gotta buck;
I can't help myself.
CHORUS:
There's a whirlwind up ahead, so spread the news;
I can't be late, I gotta break, I feel like bustin' loose!
I can't help myself.
My oh my, ride the wild stampede;
I can't let go, I can't control the speed;
I'm chompin' at the bit, and it's too late to quit!
I can't help myself.
CHORUS
I can't help myself, I can't help myself.
This is hard to take, I can hardly wait!
I can't help-a-my, I can't help-a-my, I can't help-a-myself.

Goodbye, Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh.
Me gotta go, pole the pirogue down the bayou.
My Yvonne, sweetest one, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou.
CHORUS:
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou.
Thibodeaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin',
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen.
Dress in style, go hog wild, and be gayo.
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou.
CHORUS:
Oh, guitar!
CHORUS
Oh, Lord!
Hang tight, ooh Lord!
Ah, take it out.
He's comin', ah!

Wellllllll, I ain't never, I ain't never, seen nobody like you,
No no never, have I ever, seen nobody like you-oo-oo.
You call me up, say you'll meet me at nine,
I have to hurry, hurry, but I'm there on time,
I walk right up and knock on your door,
The landlord says ";She ain't here no more.";
CHORUS:
I ain't never, oh darlin', seen nobody like you-oo-oo,
But I love ya, yeah I love ya, I love you just the same.
Well, you tell me things that you don't mean,
You got me livin' in a haunted dream,
You make me do things, I don't wanna do,
My friends they stay away, but what's so wrong with you?
CHORUS:
I love you just the same.

Well, hearts of stone will never break,
And the love you give, it just won't take.
You can 'em ";Please, please, please, please break,";
And all your love is their's to take.
Well, hearts of stone, will cause you pain,
Although you love them, they'll stop you just the same.
You can 'em ";Please, please, please, please break,";
And all your love is their's to take.
But they'll say ";No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Everybody knows - I thought you knew; hearts are made of stone.";
Whoa!
Well, hearts of stone, will cause you pain,
Although you love them, they'll stop you just the same.
You can 'em ";Please, please, please, please break,";
And all your love is their's to take.
Yeah!
But they'll say ";No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Everybody knows - I thought you knew; hearts are made of stone.";

Would you like to sail the sea, like a pirate, wild and free?
Cast your whole life upon the wind, well it's your song, and it's your dream.
Would you like, to turn the page; Fight the dragon, or find your maid,
Makin' merry at the village green, well it's your song, and it's your dream.
Would you like to lead the band, hittin' that old time sweet Dixieland,
And that side show go marchin' on, well it's your song, and it's your dream.
Would you like to be a song, like a river just rolls along,
Teach the whole world how to sing, well it's your song, and it's your dream.
It's your song, and it's your dream.

[Instrumental]

Hoo! Oooooh!
Shadows on the mountain, and the night begins to fall;
Gather up the children, 'fore the darkness takes us all.
Tribe has come together, standin' naked against the night;
Twenty feet from the fire, the evil waits with zombie eyes.
CHORUS:
Eye-eye-eye eye of the Zombie!
Eye-eye-eye eye of the Zombie!
Oh! Sneakin' through the long grass on leopard feet silently,
A beast already dead comes to join the dance on the zombie.
Ooh! Time has come again - again the moment of truth;
The terror is at hand, and there's nothin' you can do.
CHORUS
Oh! Hoo! Aaa-aah! Hoo! Aaa-aaa-aaaah!
From out of nowhere he's there, flashing hideous teeth,
Panic in the crowd, helter-skelter, we're brought to our knees.
Back to the darkness, back on the mountain he stands,
You can't fight a shadow, you can't kill a dead man.
CHORUS (X4)

Have thine own way, Lord, have thine own way,
Thou art the potter, I am the clay,
Mold me and make me, fester thy will,
While I am waiting, gilded and still.
Have thine own way, Lord, have thine own way,
Search me and try me, master today,
Whiter than snow, Lord, push me just down,
As in thy presence humbly I bow.
Have thine own way, Lord, have thine own way,
Wounded and weary, help me I pray,
Power of power, surely is thine,
Touch me and heal me, saviour divine.
Have thine own way, Lord, have thine own
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

When I was young, I spent my summer days playin' on the track.
The sound of the wheels rollin' on the steel took me out, took me back.
CHORUS:
Big Train from Memphis, Big Train from Memphis,
Now it's gone gone gone, gone gone gone.
Like no one before, he let out a roar, and I just had to tag along.
Each night I went to bed with the sound in my head, and the dream was a song.
CHORUS
Well I've rode 'em in and back out again - you know what they say about trains;
But I'm tellin' you when that Memphis train came through,
This ol' world was not the same.
CHORUS

I'm goin' to California, where they sleep out every night, yeah.
I'm goin' to California, where they sleep out every night, yeah.
I'm leavin' you, Mama, 'cause you know you don't treat me right.
Let me tell you somethin', Mama that you don't know,
Let me tell you somethin', good gal that you don't know,
Yeah, I'm a do-right Papa, and got a home everywhere I go.
I got the California blues, and I'm sure gonna leave here, Lord, Lord.
I got the California blues, and I'm sure gonna leave you here,
I may rob you blind, I ain't got not railroad fare.
Come on in here.
Listen to me, Mama, while I sing this song, Lord.
Listen to your Daddy sing you this lonesome song.
You got me worried now, but I won't be worried long.
I got the California blues, and I'm sure gonna leave here, hey, hey, hey.
I got the California blues, and I'm sure gonna leave you here,
I may rob you blind, I ain't got not railroad fare.
Honey, get over here.

When I was young and in my prime (in my prime!),
I left my home in Caroline.
Now all I do is sit and pine, for all those folks I left behind.
I got the Blue Ridge mountain blues, and I sat right here to say,
";My grip is packed to travel, and I'm back to ramble,
To my Blue Ridge far away.";
I'm goin' to stay right by my Pa, I'm goin' to do right by my Ma,
I'll hang around the cabin door, no work or worry anymore.
I got the Blue Ridge mountain blues, goin' to see my old oak tree,
Gonna hunt the possum where the corn cob blossom,
In my Blue Ridge far away.
Woo!
I see a haze of snowy white, I see a window with light,
I seem to hear them both sigh, ";Where is my wand'rin boy tonight?";
I got the Blue Ridge mountain blues, and I stay right here to say,
";Every day I'm countin' 'til I climb that mountain,
In my Blue Ridge far away.";

Well thunder, lightning, strike me down, I do believe I see,
A ghostly figure on the ground, fallen to his knees.
CHORUS:
And the wall gets higher, so you could not see,
I said the wall gets higher, so you could not see.
Well the lightning flash, the cannon roar, the ground begin to shake,
The people wondered but they heard no more, but the Big Chief will not wait.
CHORUS
Well!
Well a beast so bad it put me to bed, but the air was thick and deep,
The people wonder but they heard no more, the mountain would not speak.
CHORUS
CHORUS
CHORUS
Run tonight, run tonight oh,
Risin' right now, risin' right now.

Now I'll be glad when you're dead, you rascal you, uh-huh.

Well I let into my home, you gonna leave my woman alone,

Now I'll be glad when you die, you rascal you, uh-huh.
I'll be glad, oh I'll be tickled to death when you leave this Earth it's true, oh yeah.
When you're lyin' down six feet deep, no more fried chicken will you eat.
I'll be glad when you're dead, you rascal you, oh yeah.
Ah, you just ain't no good! Oh, you dog!
Now listen here, I'll be glad when you're dead, you rascal you, uh-huh.
I'll be glad when you're dead, you rascal you, oh yeah.
I'll be standin' on the corner high, when they drag your body by,
I'll be glad when you're dead, you know I'm gonna be so happy when you're gone you dog!
I'll be glad when you're dead, you rascal you.

Here come that good ol' travelin' band once again mmm-hmmm
Back in the alley, lookin' like a long-lost friend, oh yeah.
I know for certain there won't be no jive,
We're back in business, and you know I can fly, fly, fly.
Oh my my, travelin' high! Yeah.
Hey, hey, it's been a long long time, yeah,
But if it's all right, you know you're gonna blow my mind, oh yeah,
'Cause I'm a natural boogie-woogie fool,
Ain't good for nothin' but chasin' down the hoochie-coo.
Oh my my, travelin' high! Yeah.
Now whatcha gonna do with the old rockin' chair, Mmm-hmm,
Just sit you right down, start to rock, start to rock,
Start to rockin' away from here,
'Cause you ain't nothin' but a struttin' fool,
Back in the alley with the hoochie-coochie-coo.
Oh my my, travelin' high, high, high! Yeah.

Now Old Man Rhythm is in my shoes, it's no use sittin' here singin' the blues,
So be my guest, you got nothin' to lose, won't you let me take you on a sea cruise?
Ooowee, ooowee baby, ooowee, ooowee baby,
Ooowee, ooowee baby! Won't you let me take you on a sea cruise?

* - based on the rest of the song, these are probably all ";Come home"; and not ";Come on";, but it sure sounds like it to me!

Well I feel like flyin' away, 'cause more and more I'm just in the way, yeah.
Through the night, and far across the sky,
There's another light, you know I must fly.
Far, far away.
Well I feel it now, somehow in me, the power of flight should appear,
I hear a song callin' my name, And I might be wrong, but I'm goin' just the same.
Far, far away.
Well I feel like flyin' away, and walk on the clouds along the way.
Well don't be sad, it's gonna be alright, yeah.
And if you're strong, just come along tonight.
Far, far away; Far, far away.

Outside my window, I can hear the radio,
And I know that motor wagon is ready to fly,
'Cause it's almost Saturday night.
Bye bye, tomorrow, Jody's gone to the rodeo,
And you know some good old boys are ready to ride,
'Cause it's almost Saturday night.
CHORUS:
Gonna push the clouds away, let the music have it's way,
Let it steal my heart away, and you know I'm-a-goin'!
Outside the ringing, the night train is bringin' me home,
When you hear that locomotion get ready to ride,
'Cause it's almost Saturday night.
CHORUS
Outside the ringing, the night train is bringin' me home,
When you hear that locomotion get ready to ride,
'Cause it's almost Saturday night.
Oh yeah!

Ooh!
Wasn't that a woman! (X4)
Oh, yeah!
(Wasn't that a woman) Took me by surprise,
(Wasn't that a woman) Uh-huh, right between the eyes.
(Wasn't that a woman) Well, I hope to believe,
(Wasn't that a woman) Made a schoolboy outta me.
CHORUS:
Oh yeah, I got it badly, ain't too much to figure out;
Bam boom, and she had me. Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah.
(Wasn't that a woman) Watch me, watch me, watch me runnin' down the line,
(Wasn't that a woman) Ain't she fine, ain't she fine;
(Wasn't that a woman) Well I'm chasin' after that,
(Wasn't that a woman) Uh-huh, pure Cadillac.
How! Oh, yeah!
CHORUS
(Wasn't that a woman) Whoa smile on my face,
(Wasn't that a woman) Turn every head in the place;
(Wasn't that a woman) Oww, such sweet agony,
(Wasn't that a woman) Whoa 'cause she's leavin' here with me!
Wasn't that a woman!...
(various shouting and talking)

Yeah, hey! What you talkin' about?
I read it in the paper today,
Two cats howlin' 'til the break of day.
Up on the back fence, they're makin' a play;
One stepped across the line, the other blew him away.
Up in the morning, down the road 'n I'm gone;
Been with my sweetie, we was up all night long.
My head is throbbin', man I gotta find a song,
The radio depress me, tell me what's goin' on?
CHORUS:
Headlines, screamin' everywhere I go;
Headlines, like I really want to know;
Headlines, gotta million ways to say,
Another crazy day, Headlines.
I saw it on the 6:30 news,
Some freakin' deacon wearin' military shoes;
He's mad at me, buddy, he's mad at you,
He's gonna drop the Big One and there's nothin' I can do.
CHORUS
Oh! Just another crazy day.
Do, do, do, do.
Up on the mountain, man I'm feelin' alright,
Been to the temple and I'm sleepin' at night.
Here come a stranger, need a paper to light,
Man, he's bustin' with the news about the fightin' tonight.
CHORUS
CHORUS
Oh! Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah!
Whoa! Think I'll play all night!

Aaah!
CHORUS:
Change in the weather, change in the weather,
Somethin's happenin' here.
Change in the weather, change in the weather,
People walkin' round in fear.
Uh huh, you better duck and run,
Get under cover 'cause the change has come.
Storm warning, and it looks like rain,
Be nothin' left after the hurricance.
This here's a jungle, ain't no lie,
Look at the people, terror in their eyes.
Bad business comin', can't be denied,
They're running with the dogs, afraid to die.
CHORUS
Uh huh, you best believe it's true,
The levee's busted, badness comin' through.
Oh no, there ain't no place to hide,
Reach out and pluck you, take you for a ride.
Sea of frustration, take everything in sight,
Won't be no blessing if we make it through the night.
Down on your knees, go ahead and pray,
But every demon has to have his day.
CHORUS
Well! Oh, God!
High noon, I can't believe my eyes,
Wind is ragin', there's a fire in the sky.
Ground shakin', everything comin' loose,
Run like a coward but it ain't no use.
Edge of the river, it's an ugly scene,
People gettin' pushed, people gettin' mean.
The change is comin' and it's gettin' late,
Ain't no survivin', and there ain't no escape.
CHORUS
Oh!
CHORUS
Well! Oh, no!

Mr. Greed, why you got to own everything that you see?
Mr. Greed, why you put a chain on everybody livin' free?
You're hungerin' for his house, you're hungerin' for his wife,
And your appetite will never be denied.
You're a devil of consumption; I hope you choke, Mr. Greed.
CHORUS:
How do you get away with robbin'? Did your mother teach you how?
I hear you got away with murder, did you do your mama proud?
Mr. Greed, why you got to take more than you can ever use?
Bring 'em to their knees; isn't it enough just to win while they lose?
You bring no honor to the game, you feast upon the blood and pain,
But the bones you hoard can only bring you shame.
There's corruption in your path, be that your epitaph, Mr. Greed.
CHORUS

They sent us home to watch the show comin' on the little screen;
A man named Ike was in the White House, big black limousine;
There were many shows to follow, from 'Hooter' to 'Doodyville',
Though I saw them all, I can't recall which cartoon was real.
The coon-skin caps, Yankee bats, the ";Hound Dog"; man's big start;
The A-Bomb fears, Annette had ears, I lusted in my heart.
A young man from Boston set sail the new frontier,
And we watched the Dream dead-end in Dallas,
They buried innocence that year.
I know it's true, oh so true, 'cause I saw it on TV.
We gathered round to hear the sound comin' on the little screen,
The grief had passed, the old men laughed, and all the girls screamed
'Cause four guys from England took us all by the hand,
It was time to laugh, time to sing, time to join the band.
But all too soon, we hit the moon, and covered up the sky;
They built their bombs, and aimed their guns, and still I don't know why
The dominoes tumbled and big business roared;
Every night at six, they showed the pictures and counted up the score.
I know it's true, oh so true, 'cause I saw it on TV.
The old man rocks among his dreams, a prisoner of the porch;
";The light,"; he says ";At the end of the tunnel,
Was nothin' but a burglar's torch.";
And them that was caught in the Cover are all rich and free,
But they chained my mind to an endless tomb
When they took my only son from me.
I know it's true, oh so true, 'cause I saw it on TV.
I know it's true, oh so true, 'cause I saw it on TV.

Well, beat the drum and hold the phone - the sun came out today!
We're born again, there's new grass on the field.
A-roundin' third, and headed for home, it's a brown-eyed handsome man;
Anyone can understand the way I feel.
CHORUS:
Oh, put me in, Coach - I'm ready to play today;
Put me in, Coach - I'm ready to play today;
Look at me, I can be Centerfield.
Well, I spent some time in the Mudville Nine, watchin' it from the bench;
You know I took some lumps when the Mighty Casey struck out.
So Say Hey Willie, tell Ty Cobb and Joe DiMaggio;
Don't say ";it ain't so";, you know the time is now.
CHORUS
Yeah! I got it, I got it!
Got a beat-up glove, a homemade bat, and brand-new pair of shoes;
You know I think it's time to give this game a ride.
Just to hit the ball and touch 'em all - a moment in the sun;
(pop) It's gone and you can tell that one goodbye!
CHORUS
CHORUS
Yeah!

(omitting background ";choir";)
Ohhhh, when He calls my name, I will ah-ah-a-answer,
When He calls, calls me yeah, I will ah-ah-a-answer,
When He calls my name, I will ah-ah-a-answer,
Wanna be somewhere, yeah Lord, call my name!
I wanna be somewhere, Lord, yeah Lord call my name.
Wanna be somewhere-hair yeah Lord call my name.
On that day we shall rise, wipe the tears from my eyes,
I wanna be somewhere, yeah Lord call my name!
Mmm, I say ";Lord, you know I don't have no friend like you,
If Heaven's not my home, please tell me what shall I do?";
Somebody sendin' for your child to lay Heaven, oh but soon
I'm goin' to be somewhere, yeah call my name.
Oh, I wanna be somewhere, Lord when He calls my name,
I wanna be somewhere, Lord when He calls, calls my name,
Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down, sometimes leveled to the ground,
I wanna be somewhere, Somewhere! Somewhere! Somewhere!
Somewhere! Somewhere! Somewhere!
Call my name, my name.

[John n Bruce]
I've been cheated, been mistreated
When will I be loved
I've been pushed down, I've pushed 'round
When will I be loved
[John]
When I find a new girl
That I want for mine
She always breaks my heart in two
[John n Bruce]
It happens every time
I've been made blue, I've been lied to
When will I be loved
(Instrumental to John's then Bruce's comment->singin)
[John]
Aww man, I just wanna know when
[Bruce]
Yeah that's what I'm talkin' about
When I find a new girl that I want for mine
She always breaks my heart in two
[John n Bruce]
it happens every time (oh whoa oh)
I've been cheated, been mistreated
When will I be loved
When will I be loved
[John ----> John n Bruce]

Someone told me long ago There's a calm before the storm,
I know; It's been comin' for some time.
When it's over, so they say, It'll rain a sunny day,
I know; Shinin' down like water.
I want to know, Have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, Have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down on a sunny day?
Yesterday, and days before, Sun is cold and rain is hard,
I know; Been that way for all my time.
'Til forever, on it goes Through the circle, fast and slow,
I know; It can't stop, I wonder.
I want to know, Have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, Have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down on a sunny day?
Yeah!
I want to know, Have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, Have you ever seen the rain

Famous quotes by John Fogerty:

"I dearly loved my brother Tom,"

"Take Me Out to the Ballgame."

"Born On The Bayou"

"I always assumed I would meet him. I never got to touch base from my heart to his heart, and I'm sure that millions of us felt the same way."

"There's no way to overstate how cool this is,"

"About a year ago we heard the same rumor again, so Julie and I met with Norman and Hal, and other people at Concord, just to get acquainted. At our first meeting, they expressed great respect and appreciation. When they finally acquired Fantasy, we figured the time was right to see if we could work together."

"We heard rumors over the years that Fantasy was on the market, but nothing materialized,"

"I'm very happy to be back in touch with a part of myself, ... It's surreal. For 35 years, I never thought I'd be reunited with the music I wrote during the Creedence Clearwater Revival years."

"I must admit I was hesitant. What I found disarming is they were delightful people, very respectful of me and my music. They decided to start paying me artist royalties, which they weren't contractually obligated to do. They recognized that I created all this music, and it was a huge asset for them."

"I'm sorry to say we're doing the same damn thing again,"

"The only sliding I did was on the kind of instrument that you put on your lap; no Spanish electrics."

"Now that I'm older, I like almost anything that's done well, even surf music and instrumentals; I really enjoyed the interviews with the Ventures in your magazine."

"I wrote that song for my wife, and it's what some guy who's sitting under a tree would be singing to the woman of his life, telling her how wonderful she is. To me, that's more lasting than something that sounds like it belongs on a movie soundtrack."

"Even though I have often recorded alone, I still feel the best music is made by musicians playing off each other."

"Even though James Burton was my idol, I didn't think I could carry his shoes back then."

"I've studied a lot of great people over the years - Pete Seeger, James Brown - and tried to incorporate elements that I've admired, though I can't say I dance like James."

"There's just not a lot of guys around playing like that these days; a lot of steel players are plugging into stomp boxes, trying to sound like Jeff Beck on a steel guitar."

"I'm much more energetic now; you might say live performance is my mission."

"But I think beautiful is simple and elegant, like a ballad with simple harmony."

"And I now think that Stratocasters and Telecasters are way cool."
