2. GOING TO THE COUNTRY

Gonna leave the city put my troubles behind
People in the city goin' out of their minds
Goin' to the country just to feel like gold
People in the country really let themselves go

Hey, ho, one thing i know
People in the country got one thing for sure
Hey, ho, one thing i know
Every mother's child really lets himself go

Goin' to the country and leavin' right away
No time to talk i got to make a getaway
Gonna leave the city it's a crime and a shame
People in the city are goin' insane

Hey, ho, one thing i know
Every mother's child really lets himself go
Hey, ho, one thing i know
People in the country really let themselves go

Joining hands
Making plans
Come on down
Look around


3. BABY'S HOUSE

Inside her silver house, alone
She sings a song
Of water turned to sand
She waits, her time is her own

Inside her looking glass
Black is the color she sees
While waiting for the sun
She lives, so patiently

Young man travelling along
Passes by a window
Singing a song

Feel the wind blow
As my blood flows
Through the shadows
Of my soul, today

See the rainbows
As my love grows
My heart knows
What my mind won't say

The living is easy
I'm born to be free
The living is easy
There's no reason to explain

Sitting in her sitting room, patiently
She waits for a change, suddenly
Oh, the changes come
Hearing a song, her blood begins to flow
She no longer is alone

Lying in her sitting room, silently
He touches her hand, joyfully
And so love has begun
With joy in her heart
She receives his flowing soul
And love grows
And it grows
And it grows

Inside her purple house
Oh lord, filled by her man
A child begins to grow
Oh lord, who can understand


4. KOW KOW CALQULATOR

Kow kow calqulator
Was a very smooth operator
Had himself a pet alligator
Kept it in a chrome elevator, yeah

When the sun began to shine
The alligator come outside
Kow kow played the chimes
Together they would go for a ride

As they travelled with a heavy load
They came across a dead horse at the side of the road
With two generals standing at each end
Fighting over whose fault it had been

And all that's left was this war
And they couldn't get things back together like they were before

Well, listen
Turn on your love light
Turn it on, let it shine
Inside your heart
Let it shine, turn it on
Your love light
Turn it on
Turn it on
Let it shine
Inside your mind

So many times kow kow had heard it said before
Oh, don't, lord, don't go near that door
The cause of our evil you'll uncover
Because of our misery you discover
Well, misery seeks its own company
Kow kow had heard it said

Now he sits there crying
Oh, with his hands across his head
Kow kow calqulator
Oh, a very smooth operator

Get back in your elevator
Kow kow calqulator
Turn on your love light
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Let it shine


5. YOUR SAVING GRACE

Winter's people watching
As i sail from season's four
To join some crazy ladies
In a game upon the shore
None of them with broken wings
But still refuse to fly
So with sweetness on my lips
I smile a last goodbye

And now i spend my life
On the velvet side of hell
Aimlessly here searching
For what i cannot tell
The quietness is terrible
It's more than i can stand
But thousands now stand cheering
As my blood flows in the sand

Spoken: you're not the child
You thought you were
You wake up in the night
And know you're blind
And yet they keep on pushing
Trying the insides of your mind
Forever, forever arresting to control
Until the emptiness of heaven welcomes your weary soul

Rise up with the new dawn's early morning
Feel the sunshine warm upon your face
Tomorrow's come a long, long way to help you
Yes, it's your saving grace

Every day, every way
Tomorrow, it's your saving grace
Well, now got no time to worry
Cause i've got no time to hurry
Baby, it's your saving grace
Now don't you lay those blames on me
Don't you play those games on me
Cause baby it's your saving grace
You got to need a little lovin'
Now baby it's your saving grace
Hey, i feel alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Your saving grace
Ah, hey, hey, hey
Your saving grace
La la la la la la la la....
Oh baby, it's your saving grace


6. GOING TO MEXICO

Pack my bags
Don't be too slow
I should have quit you baby
A long time ago
Left you flat
And split for mexico

Don't try to stop me
Child, you're talkin' too fast
You and your friends babe
You are a thing in my past
You're much too slow
I'm goin' to mexico

I've got four or five hundred miles to go
Down that southbound highway
'53 studebaker goin' for broke
I'm pushin' it night and day
I've had enough of your lies
To last a long, long time
You and your mother, babe
You're like a nursery rhyme
You're much too slow
I'm goin' to mexico

Yeah, come on baby

7. SPACE COWBOY

I told you 'bout living in the u.s. of a.
Don't you know that i'm a gangster of love
Let me tell you people that i found a new way
And i'm tired of all this talk about love
And the same old story with a new set of words
About the good and the bad and the poor
And the times keep on changin'
So i'm keepin' on top
Of every fat cat who walks through my door

I'm a space cowboy
Bet you weren't ready for that
I'm a space cowboy
I'm sure you know where it's at
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I was born on this rock
And i've been travelin' through space
Since the moment i first realized
What all you fast talkin' cats would do if you could
You know, i'm ready for the final surprise
There ain't no way around it
Ain't nothing to say
That's gonna satisfy my soul deep inside
All the prayers and surveyors
Keep the whole place uptight
While it keeps on gettin' darker outside

I'm a space cowboy
Bet you weren't ready for that
I'm a space cowboy
I'm sure you know where it's at
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I see the show downs, slow downs, lost and found, turn arounds
The boys in the military shirts
I keep my eyes on the prize, on the long fallen skies
And i don't let my friends get hurt
All you back room schemers, small trip dreamers
Better find something new to say
Cause you're the same old story
It's the same old crime
And you got some heavy dues to pay

I'm a space cowboy
Bet you weren't ready for that
I'm a space cowboy
I'm sure you know where it's at
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

9. JOURNEY FROM EDEN

Listen to the blackbird sadly sing
For you, for me
Look at all the pointless suffering
Humanity

I am dreaming of a garden
And i see the midnight flight
Of a blackbird, through my vision
To the light
To the light

She is standing in the doorway
With the love light in her eye
And she beckons me to journey
Through the night
Through the night

Listen to the blackbird sadly sing
For you, for me
Look at all the pointless suffering
Humanity

To the people, who are naked
As they breathe in amber haze
Wandering endlessly narcotic
Through the maze
Through the maze

To the leaders, who are timeless
As they flaunt their warlike ways
Flying endlessly o'er the wasteland
Seeking praise
Seeking praise

Listen to the blackbird sadly sing
For you, for me
Look at all the pointless suffering
Humanity


10. SEASONS

Summer, fall, winter, spring
Of the seasons i will sing
To help you through your birth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind

The summer song won't last long
When this warm old man has come
I'll sing your of your birth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind

And so it goes
As the wind blows
The seasons will flow
To help you through your birth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind

A mother's child
A father's son
In this crowd, i'm only one
To tell you of your worth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind

And so it goes
As the wind blows
And so it goes
As the wind blows


11. MOTHERLESS CHILDREN

Motherless children have a hard time
When their mother is gone
Motherless children have a hard time
When their mother is gone
Motherless children have a very hard time
All the weepin', all that cryin'
Motherless children have a hard time
When their mother is gone

People say a sister will do
When the mother is gone
People say a sister will do
When the mother is gone
People say a sister will do
She'll get married, turn her back on you
Motherless children have a hard time
When their mother is gone

Father do the best he can
When the mother is gone
Father do the best he can
When the mother is gone
Father do the best he can
But there's so many things he just don't understand
Motherless children have a hard time
When their mother is gone

I was lookin' for some place to plead my case
And i'm standing here all alone
I was framed, the times they have change
And i don't know where i'm goin'
Motherless children have a hard time
All that weepin', all that cryin'
Motherless children have a hard time
When their mother is gone


12. NEVER KILL ANOTHER MAN

When the wind blows you home
To the shores of home
Will you be one of those
Who killed another man

When the wind blows you home
To the shores of home
Will you be one
Who killed another man
Killed another man
Killed another man
Killed another man

If i can make it through this life
If i can make it through this life
If i can make it
If i can make it
I'll never kill another man
As my time rolls out
As my time rolls out
If i can make it
If i can make it
I'll never kill another man with these hands
Never kill another man

16. My Dark Hour

My dark hour
My dark hour, you know it's drivin' me wild

Well, well, i went to see the doctor
And i had my fortune read
And you know the doctor told me
Son you better stay in bed

Who's that comin' down that road
Looks like he's carryin' a heavy load
{??} and he started to say
Want to come with me on my way

My dark hour, mother nature's child
My dark hour, oh, it's drivin' me wild

Well, i went to see the doctor
Just to have my fortune read
Well, well, well, well, well, the doctor told me
Son you better stay in bed

So do you think these sinners will fall
Or do you think they'll survive us all
Well, well, well, well down this road
Won't you help me carry my load

My dark hour, mother nature's child
My dark hour, oh, it's drivin' me wild
