DISC 1

1. L.A DRONE

(Instrumental)


2. IMMIGRANT SONG

We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow.

The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming, yeah

On we sweep with, threshing oar
our only goal will be the western shore.

We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.

How soft your fields so green
Can whisper tales of gore
Of how we calmed the tides of war.
We are your overlords.

On we sweep with, threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore.

I think you'd better stop
And rebuild all your ruins
For peace and trust can win the day despite, despite of all your losing.


3. HEARTBREAKER

Hey fellas, have you heard the news
You know that Annie's back in town
It won't take long just to watch an' see
How the fellas lay their money down.
Her style is new but the face is the same
As it was so long ago
But from her eyes is a different smile
Like that of one who knows.

Ooh yeah, it's been ten years and maybe more
Since I first put eyes on you;
The best years of my life gone by
Here I am alone and blue.
Some people cry and some people die
By the wicked ways of love
But I'll just keep on rollin' along
With the grace of the Lord above.

People talkin' all around
'Bout the way you left me flat
I don't care what people say
I know where their jive is at.
One thing I do have on my mind
If you can clarify, please do
It's the way you call me by another guy's name, name, name, name,
name, awww yee-ahhh



Ohhhhh, work so hard I couldn't unwind
Get some money saved
Abuse my love a thousand times
However hard I tried.
Heartbreaker, your time has come
Can't take your evil way
Go away
Heartbreaker
Heartbreaker
Heart


4. BLACK DOG

Hey hey, mama, said, the way you move
Gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove
Ah ah, child, the way you shake that thing
Gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting
Ah, ah, baby, when you walk that way
Watch your honey drip, I can't keep away

I gotta roll, can't stand still
Got a flamin' heart, can't get my fill
Eyes that shine burning red
Dreams of you all through my head

You got


I've got a girl, wanna love me soul
Wanna love me strong, Sweet jelly roll
Spent my money, took my car
Started tellin' her friends she gonna be a star, ah ha
I don't know, but I been to-ooh-old
A big-legged woman ain't got no soul, I could be wrong

Oh yeah

All I ask for, all I pray
Steady-rollin' woman gonna come my way
Need a woman gonna hold my hand
And tell me no lies, make me a happy man



5. OVER THE HILLS AND FAR AWAY

Hey lady--you got the love I need
Maybe more than enough.
Oh Darling... walk a while with me
You've got so much...

Many have I loved - Many times been bitten
Many times I've gazed along the open road.
Many times I've lied - Many times I've listened
Many times I've wondered how much there is to know.

Many dreams come true and some have silver linings
I live for my dream and a pocketful of gold.
Mellow is the man who knows what he's been missing
Many many men can't see the open road.

Many is a word that only leaves you guessing
Guessing 'bout a thing you really ought to know, ooh!
You really ought to know...


6. SINCE I'VE BEEN LOVING YOU
Oh-oh
I've been workin' from seven to eleven every night
Lemme tell ya, lemme tell ya, lemme tell ya, it really makes life
a drag
I don't think that's right.
I've really been the best, the best of fools, yeah
Oh have mercy, I did what I could...
Oh I love you, baby, mama, darling, how was I, babe,
Oh I love you girl
Ohhhhh, little girl, little girl
Baby, since I've been loving you
I'm about to lo-oo-ose my worried mind

Ev'rybody trying to tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
That you didn't mean me no good
I said I've tried, oh, ow, ow
I've tried to do the best I could
I've been working from seven, seven, seven, seven
Seven, seven, seven, seven, oh, to eleven every night
It really, it really makes it a drag
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, ow, I don't think that's right
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, babe-yeah
I'm about to lose my worried mind, only for five minutes

Oooooooooooooooooh, I've been cryin', cryin'-oh
All my tears they fell like rain, rain
Whoahhhhhh, somebody hear them calling
Please, please, please, whoa-oh-oh, now listen

Do you remember mama, when I knocked upon your door
You had the nerve to tell me you didn't want me no more.
I open my front door, I hear my backdoor slam.
I think I got one o' them.....
Oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah

I've been working working working from seven
Ooooooooh, to eleven every night
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
It just isn't right
So baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I'm about to lose my worried mind
I can't really lose it, I don't really want to loo-oose it, no no no no

Oh yeah, don't make me, don't make me, don't make me, don't make me lose
Oh, my worried mind

7. STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN

There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
And when she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word, she can get what she came for.
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven

There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure.
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven, you know

There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts, I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking, that's you

And it's whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter, remember laughter

Ohhh yeah-ee-yeah, yeah-ee-yeah, yeah-ee-yeah, yeah-ee-yeah, yeah-ee-yeah, yeah-ee-yeah
And it makes me wonder, wait a minute

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May-Queen.
Yes there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It really, really, really, really, really makes

Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him.
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind, oh-oh

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know, yeah
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last, yeah
When all are one and one is all, that's what it is
To be a rock and not to roll-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooll, yeah

And she's buying a stairway to heaven.


8. GOING TO CALIFORNIA

Spent my days with a woman unkind
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
Made up my mind, make a new start
Going to California with an aching in my heart.
Someone told me there's a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.

Took my chances on a big jet plane
Never let them tell you that they're all the same.
Hoh, the sea was red and the sky was grey
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
As the children of the sun began to awake, come on children

Seems that the wrath of the Gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow
I think I might be sinking, ah ah
Throw me a line if I reach it in time
I'll see you up there where the path
Runs straight and high, oh-ooooh-ooooh

To find a queen without a king
They say she plays guitar and cries and sings, Joni
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin' to find a Woman who's never, never, never been born.
Standing on a hill in a my mountain of dreams
Telling myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems, ooh-ooh-ooh, sure is hard, yeah


9. THAT'S THE WAY

I don't know how I'm gonna tell you
I can't play with you no more
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me
My friend, the boy next door.

I can't believe what people sayin'
You're gonna let your hair hang down
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long
You're in the darkest side of town, whatcha doin, whatcha doin, whatcha doin there, I know

And when I'm out I see you walking
Why don't your eyes see me
Could it be you've found another game to play
What did mama say to me, oh-oh-oh

That's the way Ohhhh, oh, oh yeah-ee-yeah, oh now
Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma, ma m-m-ma m-m-mama
That's the way it ought to stay, I don't think so
Sho' don't think so
Ohhh oh-oh-oh, Ohhh oh-oh-oh, oh, oh oh-oh, whoa

And yesterday I saw you standing by the river
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying, dying
Had they got you hypnotized, oh dear

An' yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers
But all that lives is born to die
And so I say to you that nothing really matters, no no
And all you do is stand and cry, I know, I know

That's the way
That's the way it oughta be
Oh don't you know now
And when I wake up in the morning, morning, I tell my mama
That's the way it oughta gonna stay, I don't think so, uh uh, oh

Ohhh oh-oh-oh, Ohhh oh-oh-oh, oh, ah-ah-ah
Hey, it ain't right, it ain't right, it ain't right, it ain't right, it ain't right, mama

It ain't right, it ain't right, it ain't right, it ain't right, no-no-oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh




10. BRON-YR-AUR STOMP

Yeah, caught you smiling at me
That's the way it should be
Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine, let's hear it

Yeah, all the good times we had
I sang love songs so glad
Always smiling, never sad, so fine.

As we walk down the country lanes
I'll be singing a song, hear me calling your name
Hear the wind within the trees
Telling Mother Nature about you and me.

Yeah, if the wind was so right
Or on our way it's darkest night
The road we choose is always right, so fine.

Yeah can your love be so strong
When so many loves go wrong
Will our love go on and on and on and on and on and on

As we walk down the country lanes
I'll be singing a song, hear me calling your name
Hear the wind within the trees
Telling Mother Nature 'bout you and me

My my, law-dee-law, come on now it ain't too far
Tell your friends all around the world
Ain't no companion like a blue-eyed merle
Come on now well let me tell ya
What you're missing, missing, 'round these brick walls

Yeah, of one thing I am sure
It's a friendship so pure
Angels singing all around my door, my dog's so fine.

Yeah, ain't but one thing to do
Spend my natural life with you
You're the finest dog I knew, so fine.

When you're old and your eyes are dim
Ain't no old Shep gonna happen again
We'll still go walking down country lanes
I'll sing the same old songs
Hear me call your name, Strider!


DISC 2

1. DAZED AND CONFUSED

Oooooh, I've been dazed and confused for so long it's not true

2. WHAT IS AND WHAT SHOULD NEVER BE

And if I say to you tomorrow
Take my hand, child, come with me, yeah
It's to a castle I will take you
Where what's to be, they say will be.

Catch the wind, see us spin,
Sail away, leave the day,
Way up high in the sky.
But the wind won't blow
You really shouldn't go
It only goes to show
That you will be mine
By takin' our time, ahh yeah

And if you say to me tomorrow
Oh what fun it all would be, yeah
What's to stop us, pretty baby
But what is and what should never be.

That you will be mine
Oh, by takin' our time ooooh, ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha baby

And if you wake up with the sunrise
And all your dreams are still as new, yeah
And happiness is what everybody need so bad
Well, lemme tell ya, the answer lies in you, oh yes

Catch the wind, see us spin
Sail away, leave the day
Way up high in the sky
But the wind won't blow
You really shouldn't go
It only goes to show

Well, the wind won't blow and we really shouldn't go
And it only goes to show, yeah

But they really didn't know that I fall out o' hell
Baby baby baby, just give me the good things, mama love ya
Oh yes, uh-huh
Oh, you just sold out on me

3. DANCING DAYS

Dancing days are here again
As the summer evenings grow
I got my flower, I got my power
I got a woman who knows.

[Chorus]
You know it's all right
I said it's all right
I know it's all in my heart
You'll be my only, my one and only
Is that the way it should start

Now crazy ways are evident
In the way that you're wearing your clothes
Sippin' booze is precedent
As the evening starts to glow.

I said it's all right
You know it's all right
I said it's all in my heart
You'll be my only, my one and only
Is that the way it should start

[Chorus]
I told your mamma I'd get you home
But I didn't tell her I had no car
I saw a lion he was standing alone
With a tadpole in a jar.

Ohhh, you know it's all right
I said it's all right
I guess it's all in my heart ohhh
You'll be my only, my one and only
Is that the way it should start

[Chorus]
So, dancing days are here again
As the evening starts to grow
You are my flower, you are my power
You are my woman who knows.

I said it's all right
You know it's all right
I know it's all in my, all in my, all in my
You'll be my only, my one and only
Is that the way it should start
Hey, isn't it?

3. THE OCEAN

"We've done four already but now we're steady
And then they went: One, two, three, four"

Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain
Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the grain
Ain't no time to pack my bag, my foots outside the door
Got a date, I can't be late, for the high hopes hailla ball.

Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar
Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more, more!
Singing about good things and the sun that lights the day
I used to sing on the mountains, has the ocean lost it's Way.

Sitting round singing songs 'til the night turns into day
Used to sing on the mountains but the mountains washed away
Now I'm singing all my songs to the girl who won my heart
She is only three years old and it's a real fine way to Start.


4. BRING IT ON HOME

Baby, baby, I'm gonna bring it on home to you
I've got my ticket, I've got that load
Got up, gone higher, "all aboard"
Take my seat, right way back
Watch this train roll down the track
I'm gonna bring it on home, bring it on home to you
Watch out, watch out...

Try to tell you baby, "what you tryin' to do ?"
Tryin' to love me baby, love some other man too
Bring it on home, bring it on home

Went a little walk downtown, honey, messed and got back late
Found a note there waiting, it said, "Daddy, I just can't wait"
Bring it on home, bring it back home to me baby

Tell you, pretty baby, you love to mess me `round
I'm gonna give you lovin', baby, gonna move you outta town
Bring it on home, bring it on home

Sweetest little baby, daddy ever saw
I'm gonna give you lovin' baby, I'm gonna give you more
Bring it on home, bring it on home

Bring it on home, bring it on home to you
