1. FREEDOM

You got my pride
Hanging out of my bed
You are messing around with my life
So I bought my ...
You even mess with my children
And you're screaming at my wife, baby
Get off my back, if you wanna get outta here alive

Freedom, give it to me
That's what I want now
Freedom, that's what I need now
Freedom to live
Freedom, so I can give

You got my heart speak electric water
You got my soul screaming and howling
You know you hook my girlfriend
You know the drugstore man
But I don't need it now
I was trying to slap it out of her head

Freedom, so I can give
Freedom
Freedom, that's what I need

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 sticking your dagger in someone else
So I can leave
Set me free

Right on, straight ahead
Stay up and straight ahead

Freedom


2. IZABELLA

Thank you very much I'd like to do this song dedicated
To maybe a soldier in the army singing about his old lady that
He dreams about and humping a machine gun instead or it could be
Could be a cat maybe trying to fall in love with that girl baby,
But a little bit too scared.
That's where the problems come from

Sometimes isn't it, I mean the cat is really insecure a little bit
So the call girls groupies and they call girls this. and they call
Passive people hippies and bla bla, woof, woof, all down the line
That's because they are not in love man that's what's happening.
That's the other half of a man, is woman and we'd like to play a thing called
Izabella, and don't you ever forget it."

Izabella
Girl, I dream about you every night
Every night
Hey, girl you know we got a war
Got a war to fight
So i think about you every day
Oh, and i hope you listen to me right

Hey, Izabella
Girl, I'm fighting this war for the you
Hey little girl i fight this war for the children and the world and you
So I hope you hear me baby, yeah
Cause what I try to tell you is true
Hey

Izabella
I fight this war for the children and you
Hey girl, I said I fight this war for the children and you
Please save your love for me
Then I'll know the fighting is true
Izabella
Hey
Izabella
I'm gonna fight this war against nature, my heart

"Thank you very much. and I'd like to go on with another slow thing.
I'd like to get by with a little bit of jam messing around with back
At the house I think we're going to call "get my heart back together again"


3. NIGHT BIRD FLYING

She's just a nigh bird flying through the night
Fly on
She's just a night bird making a midnight, midnight flight
Sail on, sail on
Well, she's flying down to me
But, 'til tomorrow got to set her free
Set her free

So all we got, baby, is one precious night
All we got is one precious night
Throw your blues and shoes and things
And lay it down under the bed
Just wrap me up in your beautiful wings,
Better hear what I say, yeah
Oh, carry me home
Please take me through your dreams
Inside your world I want to be

Until tomorrow no tears will be shed
Hold on 'til the sun gets out of bed
Hold on, hold on, baby
Fly on


4. ANGEL

Angel came down from heaven yesterday
She stayed with me just long enough to rescue me
And she told me a story yesterday,
About the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea
And then she spread her wings high over me
She said she's gonna come back tomorrow

And I said: "fly on my sweet angel,
Fly on through the sky,
Fly on my sweet angel,
Tomorrow I'm gonna be by your side"

Sure enough this morning came unto me
Silver wings silhouetted against the child's sunrise
And my angel she said unto me,
"Today is the day for you to rise
Take my hand, you're gonna be my man,
You're gonna rise"
And then she took high over yonder

And I said: "fly on my sweet angel,
Fly on through the sky,
Fly on my sweet angel,
Forever I will be by your side"


5. ROOM FULL OF MIRRORS

I used to live in a room full of mirrors
All I could see was me
Well I take my spirit and I crash my mirrors
Now the whole world is here for me to see
I said the whole world is here for me to see
Now I'm searching for my love to be

Rubber glass was all in my brain
Cotton screaming crying in my head
Rubber glass was all in my brain
Just the thought of my dreams cut me in my bed
And just the thought of my dreams cut me in my bed
I said a making love was strange in my bed

All right

No place stumping
No place far
Can't find the floor
No where at all
See nothing but sunshine
All around

Love comes shining over the mountains
Love comes shining over the sea
Love won't shine on my baby
Then I'll know who's exactly for me
Lord, I'll know who'll be for me
In the mean time, which is a groovy time


6. DOLLY DAGGER

Here comes dolly dagger
Her love's so heavy, gonna make you stagger.
Dolly dagger, she drinks her blood from a jagged edge
Been riding broomsticks since she was fifteen
Blow out all the other witches on the scene.
She got a bull whip, just as long as your life.
Her tongue can even scratch
The soul out of the devil's wife.


7. EZY RIDER

There goes ezy
Ezy ryder
Riding down the highway of desire
He says the free wind
Takes him higher
Trying to find his heaven above
But he's dying to be loved

He's telling me living
Is so magic
Something is forever
So he claims
He's talking bout lying
It's so tragic baby
But don't you worry bout today
We got freedom coming our way

How long
Do you
Think he is gonna last
Carrying out on a gas

See all the others say:
I ‘ll do what you please
Gotta get the brothers together
And the right to be free
In a cloud of angel dust
I think I see me a freak
Hey motorcycle mama
You gonna marry me

I'll be stone crazy
Love coming in at you
Stone crazy baby


8. DRIFTING

Drifting
On a sea of forgotten teardrops
On a lifeboat
Sailing for
Your love

Sailing home

Drifting
On a sea of old heartbreaks
On a lifeboat
Sailing for
Your love
Sailing home


9.BEGINNINGS

(Instrumental)


10. STEPPING STONE

I sure got the blues this morning, baby
Yeah! and I'm here to tell you about it
So you might as well pick up on it!
I'm a man
At least I'm trying to be
I've lived before
The other half of me
I've lived before
That you don't want me
But in this search
For nothing desperately
Oh, I'm trying, trying
Not to be a fool
I'm trying, trying
Lord to keep my cool, baby trying so hard to keep it together

After I find, baby
That true love of mine
I'm just rolling screaming
Crying, flying
Can't be trusted, but busted
Rolling stone

You're a woman
At least you say you are
You're a woman
At least you look like you are
You're a woman
At least you taste like you are
But you can take it off
In bed with my guitar
And then you leave them
Throw me outside
To cry, cry
To the moon and the nighttime
Save my soul,
You can't find
All you want is a ticket to ride
After you show me everything
It did prove otherwise
You just rolling, screaming, crying good love is sometime, But can't be trusted

Stepping stone
Stepping stone
Stepping stone


11. MY FRIEND

Hey, look out for my glass up there, man!
That's my drink, man, that's my drink, alright...
Make it a double, or eh...
Somebody has to sing
Somebody will sing
Somebody will sing, right
I don't know

Y'all pass me that bottle,
And I'll sing you all a real song
Yeah!
Let me get my key

Well, I'm looking through Harlem
My stomach squeal just a little more
A stagecouch full of feathers and footprints,
Pulls up to soap box door
Now a lady with a pearl handled necktie
Tied to the driver's fence
Breathes in my face,
Bourbon and coke possessed words
Haven't I seen you somewhere in hell,
Or was it just an accident
You know how I felt then, and so..

Before I could ask, was it the east or west side
My feet they howled in pain
The wheels of a bandwagon cut very deep,
But not as deep in my mind as the rain
And as they pulled away I could see her words
Stagger and fall on my muddy tent
Well I picked them up, brushed them off,
To see what they say,
And you wouldn't believe..
`Come around to my room, with the tooth in the middle,
And bring along the bottle and a president'

And sometimes it's not so easy, baby
Especially when your only friend,
Talks, sees, looks and feels like you,
And you do just the same as him
Gets very lonely up this road, baby
Got more to say

Well I'm riding through la
On a bicycle built for fools
And I seen one of my old buddies
And he say: 'you don't look the way you usually do'
I say: 'well, some people look like a coin-box'
He say: 'look like you ain't got no coins to spare'
And I laid back and I thought to myself, and I said this..
I just picked up my pride from underneath the pay phone,
And combed this breath right out of my hair
And sometimes it's not so easy
Especially when your only friend
Talk, sees, looks and feels like you,
And you do just the same as him

Just got out of a Scandinavian jail,
And I'm on my way straight home to you
But I feel so dizzy I take a quick look in the mirror,
To make sure my friend's here with me too
And you know good well I don't drink coffee,
So you fill my cup full of sand
And the frozen tea leaves on the bottom
Sharing lipstick around the broken edge
And my coat that you let your dog lay by the fire on
And your cat he attacked me from his pill box ledge
And I thought you were my friend too
Man, my shadow comes in line before you
I'm finding out that it's eh not so easy
Specially when your only friend
Talks, looks, sees and feels like you,
And you do the same just like him

Lord it's so lonely here
Pass me that bottle over there


12. STRAIGHT AHEAD

Straight ahead
Hello my friends
So happy to see you again
I was so alone
All by myself I just couldn't make it

Have you heard baby
With the wind blown round
Have you heard baby
A whole lot a people coming right on down
Communication is coming on strong
I don't give damn baby
If your hair is short or long
I said get out of your grave

Oh everybody is dancing in the street
Do what you know
Don't be slow
You got to practice what you preach
Yeah ha
Cause it's time for you and me
Come to face reality
Forget about the past baby
Things ain't what they used to be
Keep on straight ahead
Keep on straight ahead
Strait ahead baby
Strait ahead baby

We got to stand side by side
We got to stand together and organize
Send power to the people, that's what their screaming
Freedom of the soul
Pass it on, pass it on, to the young and the old
You gotta tell the truth and the truth yeah
They're gonna need a whole lot of lives
Because one of these days baby
They'll be running things
So when you give them love you better give it right
Woman and child and man and wife
The best love to have is the love of life
That's about all baby

Hello, my friends
It's so good to see you again
Now I've been all by myself
I don't think i could make it alone
I don't think i could make it alone


13. HEY BABY (NEW RISING SUN)

Hey, Baby, where do you come from?
Well she looked at me and smiled and looked into Space
and said, "I'm coming from the land of a new Rising Sun."
Then I said, "Hey Baby, where you trying to go to?"
Then she says: "I'm gonna spin and spread around peace of mind
And a whole lotta love to you and you!"

Hey, Girl! I'd like to come along
Yes, I'd like to come along
"Would you like to come along", she asked me.
Yes take me along, right now

Hey Baby, can I step into your world a while
"Yes you can," she said, "come on back with me for a while
We're gonna go cross the Jupiter's sands
And see all your people one by one

That's what I'm doing here, all about

Yeah! Yeah! May I come along
May I come along
May I come along
Please take me


14. EARTH BLUES

Well, I see hands and attesting faces
Reaching up but not quite touching the promised land
Well, I taste tears and a whole lot of previous years wasted
Saying: 'lord please give us a helping hand'
Lord lord lord

Lord lord lord
Gonna be a whole lot of re-arranges
Lord lord lord
You better hope love is the answer
Lord lord lord

My head in the cloud, my feet on the pavement

Love, love, love
Lord, there's got to be some changes
Love,, love love
Living together's gonna be a lot of re-arranges

15. ASTRO MAN

Here I come to save the day

A little boy inside a dream just the other day
His mind fell out of his face and the wind blew it away
A hand came out from heaven and pinned a badge on his chest
It said: 'get out there, man, and do your best'

They call him astro man
And he's flying higher than
That faggot superman ever could

Oh, they call him cosmic nut
And he's twice as dense as donald duck
And he'll try his best to screw you up
The rest of your mind
Oh, look out! my guitars

Astro man, flying across the sky two times higher
Than that old faggot superman ever, ever could
Ever could

There he goes, there he goes
Where he stops, no one knows
There he goes, there he goes
He's trying to, trying to blow out the rest of your mind
He's gonna blow out the rest of your mind
Talking about looking for peace of mind

Astro man will leave it in pieces
Have you put our trouble behind him
Make you fly around in pieces
Yeah, blow out the rest of your mind
Astro man will blow out the rest of your mind
He's gonna blow out the rest of your mind


16. IN FROM THE STORM

Well I, I just came back today
I just came back from the storm.
Yeah!
I said: "I just came back, baby
I just came back from the storm”
Yeah, from the storm
Well, I didn't know it then
But I was suffering, suffering
For my love to keep me warm

It was so cold and lonely
The wind 'n' crying blue rain
Were tearing me up
It was so cold and lonely
The crying blue rain was tearing me up
Oh, tearing me up.
I wanna thank you my sweet darling
For digging in the mud and picking me up.
Thank you so much

It was a terrible rain that was burning my eyes

It was you my love who brought me in.
I love you so much
I'll never stray from you again.

I just came back baby.
I just came back to get my baby on her way


17. BELLY BUTTON WINDOW

Well. I'm up here in this womb
I'm looking all around
Well, I'm looking out my belly button window
And I see a whole lot of frowns
And I'm wondering if they don't want me around

What seems to be the fuzz out there
Just what seems to be the hang
'Cause you know if you just don't want me this time around
Yeah I'll be glad to go back to spirit land
And even take a longer rest,
Before I'm coming down the chute again
Man, I sure remember the last time, baby
They were still hawking about me then
So if you don't want me now,
Make up your mind, where or when
If you don't want me now,
Give or take, you only got two hundred days
'Cause I ain't coming down this way too much more again

You know they got pills for ills and thrills and even spills
But I think you're just a little too late
So I'm coming down into this world, daddy
Regardless of love and hate
And I'm gonna sit up in your bed, mama
And just a grin right in your face
And then I'm gonna eat up all your chocolates
And say: “I hope I'm not too late”

So if there's any questions
Make up your mind
'Cause you better give or take
Questions in your mind
Give it a take
You only got two hundered days

Way up into this womb
Looking all around
Sure it’s dark in here
And I'm looking out my belly button window
And I swear I see nothing but a lot of frowns
And I'm wondering if they want me around
