Losin' your mind
Horse called war
Shine on
Lovin' woman
Harvester of pain
The chosen one
Sweet Jesus
Troubled wine
Machine gun man
Cry me a river
Toe'n the line
Found a friend
Fadin' away
Hate your guts
Machine Gun Man
Mother Mary
The Wizard
Torn and Tattered
In My Time of Dyin'
The Hammer & the Nail
Come Together
Losin' your mind
Woke up early this morning
As I looked around
My world be crumblin' down
What I saw
I couldn't believe
Who are you ?
What might I be ?
Oh, the things you do

Stare at the sun
1 means 3
At the helm insanity
If you'd look Mama, ya just might find
But you're too far gone
Now you're just losin' your mind

Wanting to get away
One more fix you'll be o.k.
The things ya do
Try and try to talk you down
You're so damn high, can't hear a sound
Oh, what's going on ?

Once you start
You can't stop
Start to shake
Fall apart
Engine's burnin', burnin' out of time
You're too far gone
Now you're just losin' your mind

Pass through time
Without a move
You're the one that's being used
If you'd look
You must might find
But you're too far gone
Now you're just losin' your mind

Horse called war
If the end be a comin'
I soon be a bummin'
All you Jesus freaks I hope you're wrong
I've got so much left to live for
All these religions without God's supervision
All you Jesus freaks you kill yourselves
All in the name of the Lord

You're gonna meet your maker
Soon he be comin' to town
You tear the horse a comin'
Mercy on your soul when you're found

Been out ridin'
Ridin' a horse called war
Ain't no denyin'
You can't bury a horse called war

All of this hatin'
Just social masturbation
All you Jesus freaks we need you now
What the hell are you waiting for
Through all the pollution
Ain't seen no solution
For you Jesus freaks that ride the horse called war

You're gonna meet your maker
Soon he be comin' to town
You hear the horse a comin'
Mercy on your soul when you're found

Been out ridin'
Ridin' a horse called war
Ain't no denyin'
You can't bury a horse called war

Everyone's talkin'
But nobody's walkin'
We keep feedin'
It keeps eatin'
We'll be down, down, down on the killin' floor

You're gonna meet your maker
Soon he be comin' to town
You hear the horse a comin'
Mercy on your soul when you're found

Been out ridin'
Ridin' a horse called war
Ain't no denyin'
You can't bury a horse called war

Take, take a little time

But there ain't nowhere you gonna hide
Now you done takin' all I done had
Paybacks be a comin'
So ya best start sayin' your prayers
Shine on
So I can find my way on back to you
Shine on
So I can shine my lovin' light on you

Ain't never comin' back
A better set of hands is where she be at
Don't go thinkin' you ain't done nothin' wrong
I'm the judge
I'm the jury
I'm gonna put your ass where you belong

Shine on
So I can find my way on back to you
Shine on
So I can shine my lovin' light on you

Lovin' woman
I'm kinda sick Mama
Kinda down
Truckload of trouble child
Be what I found
Be what I found
And as I turn
To get away
Another spoken problem done
Got something to say

Lord, I gotta find my home
I need a lovin' woman
I can call my own
I'm just tired
Mama tired of runnin' alone
I need a lovin' woman
I can call my own

Ain't got no time
No time to think
Search me some gold child
Grab me a drank
Got's me a frown
Need to find a smile
Whether your grass is green or blue child
I'll walk the smile

Lord, I gotta find my home
I need a lovin' woman
I can call my own
I'm just tired
Mama tired of runnin' alone
I need a lovin' woman
I can call my own

Harvester of pain
The morning mist is burning slow
Blood od sons and brothers gonna flow
Tomorrow will I live,
I just don't know
Morning comes we march again
Into the fields of the killing man
Don't know where I'm going
Or just where I been

At times I feel so alone
Hope to find my way back home
Mama I done asked the Lord 
He told me, ³Son, I just don't know...²

Harvester of pain
I ain't the one to blame
Harvester of pain
Caught between the blue and the gray

Mama I done killed a man
Was told he wasn't part of the plan
Don't worry none
I be getting by best that I can
Every day's a living hell
The reapear be weaving his spell
Serageant take me aside
Tell me son, ³Peace ain't what we're here to sell...²

At times I feel so alone
Hope to find my way back home
Mama I done asked the Lord
He told me, ³Son, I just don't kow...²

Harvester of pain
I ain't the one to blame
Harvester of pain
Caught between the blue and the gray

The chosen one
Hey Papa, wanna thank you so
For who you is and what you be and all that ya do
You, yeh, you, you always taught me right from wrong
I ain't got much but Papa I done wrote you this song

All the pain and suffering I watched you ignore
From a poor boy, through the ruins of war
When my life is over and I done found my home
Just remember ... son you're not alone

A hard road is what it's gonna be
When I think of all you been and done
So glad I got to know ya Papa
So glad I was the chosen one
So glad I was the chosen one

You, yeh, you, always seemed find some time
Beyond my dying day, you'll always be a friend of mine
And you, ya left some big shoes to fill
I'll do my best to make ya proud
I promise that I will
All the pain and suffering I watched you ignore
From a poor boys, through the ruins of war
When my life is over and I done found my home
Just remember... son you're not alone

When I think of all you been and done
So glad I got to know ya Papa
So glad I was the chosen one

Sweet Jesus
Talkin' down the line
I nearly lost my mind
Nearly lost you babe
Think about you child
Through my sick and twisted smile
I nearly lost you babe
Shakin' in my hands
I just don't understand
I nearly lost ya mama
Lovin' just to hate
A war that just won't wait
I nearly lost ya babe

My eyes have gone blind
The past I just can't find
A flower to be saved
A flower for your grave
Mama at times I just don't know
Oh sweet Jesus
Where did I go ?

What it was to be
Was kinda clear to see
Nearly lost ya babe
Ain't no backin' down
ŒCus I ain't nobody's clown
I nearly lost you babe
Breakin' down inside
Nearly lost you babe
Forever one more time
Until the day I die
I nearly lost ya babe

My eyes have gone blind
The past I just can't find
A flower to be saved
A flower for your grave
Mama at times I just don't know
Oh sweet Jesus
Where did I go ?

Troubled wine
Take your time, time
Take your time
Take it Mama
Take your sweet time
Take your time
Take it baby
Gonna get to you
Don't even try
Ain't gettin' by Mama
Think ya can but ya can't
Ain't no gettin' by babe
I'm gonna get to you

The bottom of the barrel is where I've been
And I'll always be
It's where I find reality
I ain't seein' clear no
And I don't wanna be
Just let me drown in my misery

Wine - I'll make you mine
Serve you a glass of my troubled wine
Tell me what you is
Tell me who you is
What you be
Lord I'll be your ship
Your ship sinkin' in the sea
Just take my hand
when you hurt
When you cry
When you bleed
A little ship
A little bit's all ya ned
I'm always here for you

The bottom of the barrel is where I've been
And I'll always be
It's where I find reality
I ain't seein' clear no
And I don't wanna be
Just let me drown in my misery

Wine - I'll make you mine
Serve you up a glass of my troubled wine

Machine gun man
Tell me what a young man Mama
What's he got to live for
Tossed in the shuffle of everyday war
Searchin' for some trouble
Which I'm sure he will find
Spend your whole like fightin' son
Meet your dyin' time

It's a shame
It's a shame
The trigger be his only friend
It's a shame, oh yeh
But it ain't never gonna end

He's a pocketful of hate
That don't give a damn
What fate awaits the machine gun man ?
Well, he ain't got no future
And he ain't got no plan
What fate awaits the machine gun man ?

I can't see tomorrow
And I don't see today
Trail of confusion done leadin' my way
They say the only thing worth killin' Lord
Be killin' time
I say the only soul worth savin' now Mama
Resavin' mine

It's a shame
Its a shame
The trigger be his only friend
It's a shame, oh yeh
But it ain't never gonna end

He's a pocketful of hate
That don't give a damn
What fate awaits the machine gun man ?
Well, he ain't got no future
And he ain't got no plan
What fate awaits the machine gun man ?

He keeps shootin' mama like any old fool would do
Lord, the life he be leadin' ain't the one he has to choose
As he walks on out that door
Mama breaks down to cry
As she waves the machien gun man
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye...

Cry me a river
I keep on runnin' baby
I keep on runnin'
But I just can't hide
No, I just can't hide
I keep on hurtin' baby
I keep on hurtin' so deep inside
So deep inside

Lord I need your smile
Child like the one I once knew
Made my grass green
And my blue skies blue
Lord was time when 2 was 1
Tell me now girl
Where've all the good times gone

Cry me a river
Wash my blues all away
Cry me a river
Girl you is my riverboat
Take me away
Is reachin' out my hand
Won't ya please help me to my feet once again
Tears fallin' like rain
Lord it's a time
When everybody needs a friend
Girl where've you been

Lord I need your smile
Child like the one I once knew
Made my grass green
And my blue skies blue
Lord was a time when 2 was 1
Where've all the good times gone

Cry me a river
Wash my blues all away
Cry me a river
Girl you is my riverboat
Take me away

Toe'n the line
Hey, hey, won't you get yourself out my way
Yeh, yeh, I'm living life like it's my last day
It's got me comin'
It's got me going
Which way I just don't know
Lord, oh Lord, I thank you and I love you so

It's my obsession
It's a truckload of aggression
Come lookin' for a friend
I ask a question
You start messin' around with my head once again

I'm just toe Œn the line

Mama don't you worry none
We're just toe Œn the line

Yeh, yeh, it's a rush running through my veins
Yeh, yeah I'm gonna drive the wife insane
It's got me comin'
It's got me going
Which way I just don't know
Lord, oh Lord, I love you and I thank you so

It's my obsession
It's a truckload of aggression
Come lookin' for a friend
I ask a question
You start messin' around with my head once again

I'm just toe Œn the line

A fist for your head
A fist for my cure
I'm tired of feeling weak
I'm tired of feeling small
I ain't gonna feel like this anymore

I'm just toe Œn the line

Afterthought

Got me a fistful of creation
Ain't nothin' Mama I can't do
Build me your walls I'm gonna break on through
Won't ya tell me, won't ya tell me
Who I am and who I can't be
Well the loser be you
ŒCus I know it ain't me
				
top

Found a friend
Time; take some time
If you wouldn't mind
Just a minute or two
ŒCus time done weighin' on my mind
Blinded my eyes
Not knowin' what to do
Alone I done held the hand of sorrow
Feelin' like I'm hangin' from the gallow
Lord won't ya please color my sky one time blue
When life's left town and run me through
I'm glad I found a friend in you

I tried Lord how I done tried
Not to break down when it was goodbye
And no one said it was gonna be easy
I found out that ain't no damn lie

Alone I done held the hand of sorrow
Feelin' like I'm hangin' from the gallow
Lord won't ya please color my sky one time blue
When life's left town run me through
I'm glad I found a friend in you

Fadin' away
Should I feel lost
Or should I feel found
What should it be ?
Up or down
Won't yo please help me...
Searching high
I'm searching low
Where might it be ?
A loss for words
That'll set me free

Fadin' away
Mama, it's been a year to the day

You ask for this
They sell you that
A better place
Is where I hope you're at
Who's gonna live and who's gonna die ?
Is it hello or goodbye ?
Could you tell me how
Could you tell me why

Fadin' away
Mama, it's been a year to the day

When the daisies are growing over top of me
Where is it that I go
Running out of time
Lord, I need to know

Fadin' away
Mama, it's been a year to the day

Hate your guts
I got the call Monday mornin'
Sometime around 9 a.m.
I felt down and out, left for dead,
Lost without a friend
Now how you live with yourself
Well child, I just don't know
But as far as I'm concerned I think ya
Really suck, you're rotten and you really blow

I hate your guts
I wish that you was dead
I hate your guts
You're damn right that's what I said
I hate your guts
And I wish that you was dead
I'd dig the holy myself
But I'd rather run ya over with my truck instead

Your first name should be ass
Your last name should be wipe
Believe me when I say this
ŒCus I've been shit on more than twice
Well it's funny how it works
It just seems to never end
Just when ya think ya had enough
They'll bend ya over and fuck ya once again !

I hate your guts
I wish that you was dead
I hate your guts
You're damn right that's what I said
I hate your guts
And I wish that you was dead
I'd dig the hole myself
But I'd rather run ya over with my truck instead

What's mine is mine
What's yours is mine
And that's the way it's gonna be
If ya got a problem with that ya little bastard
Don't ya come around to me
Now I've been doin' this now
For quite a many day
I'll rip off your nuts and
Shove them down your throat and
Head off on my merry way

Money-hungry and greedy
Child you're just downright wrong
Ya pissed me off so many times
I just had to write this song
Everyone's got their problems
And I know you sure got yours
But you make livin' child
Seem like a backbreakin' chore

I hate your guts
I wish that you was dead
I hate your guts
You're damn right that's what I said
I hate your guts
And I wish that you was dead
I'd dig the hole myself
But I'd rather run ya over with my truck instead

The Wizard

Black Sabbath's song

Misty morning, clouds in the sky
Without warning, the wizard walks by
Casting his shadow, weaving his spell
Funny clothes, tinkling bell

Never talking
Just keeps walking
spreading his magic

Evil power disappears
Demons worry when the wizard is near
He turns tears into joy
Everyone's happy when the wizard walks by

Never talking
Just keeps walking
spreading his magic

Sun is shining, clouds have gone by
All the people give a happy sigh
He has passed by, giving his sign
Left all the people feeling so fine

Never talking
Just keeps walking
spreading his magic

Torn and Tattered
Take a listen
Child, if you can
Gonna tell you a story, now
About a broken man
He done built his walls
In time they all caved in
He done lost what he loved, son
Done killed him in the end
(Chorus)
Lord, I'll take it here to heaven
Feelin' like you don't belong
Lord, if life was music
Yours would be one torn and tattered song
Oh yeah. A whole lot of hurtin', child
A whole lotta pain
If you could do it all over, son
Tell me, would it end the same?
A never ending feeling
Forever sinkin' low
I lost the light in your tunnel, child
You lost which way to go
(Chorus)
(Solo)
(Chorus)
Oh, yeah now
One torn and tattered song,
Hey, yeah now
Lord, one torn and tattered song now
Lord, one torn and tattered song.

In My Time of Dyin'

Led Zeppelin's song

In my time of dying, want nobody to mourn
All I want for you to do is take my body home

Well, well, well, so I can die easy [X2]

Jesus, gonna make up my dyin' bed.
Meet me, Jesus, meet me. Meet me in the middle of the air
If my wings should fail me, Lord. Please meet me with another pair

Well, well, well, so I can die easy [X2]

Jesus, gonna make up.. somebody, somebody...
Jesus gonna make up... Jesus gonna make you my dyin' bed

Oh, Saint Peter, at the gates of heaven... Won't you let me in
I never did no harm. I never did no wrong

Oh, Gabriel, let me blow your horn. Let me blow your horn
Oh, I never did, did no harm.

I've only been this young once. I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong
No, not once.

Oh, I did somebody some good. Somebody some good...
Oh, did somebody some good. I must have did somebody some good...

And I see them in the streets
And I see them in the field
And I hear them shouting under my feet
And I know it's got to be real
Oh, Lord, deliver me
All the wrong I've done
You can deliver me, Lord
I only wanted to have some fun.

Hear the angels marchin', hear the' marchin', hear them marchin',
hear them marchin', the' marchin'

Oh my Jesus... [repeat]

Oh, don't you make it my dyin', dyin', dyin'...

[Studio Chatter:] "That's gonna be the one, isn't it? "
"Come have a listen, then. "
Oh yes, thank you."

The Hammer & the Nail
Clearing webs from the hovel
A blistered hand on the handle of a shovel
I've been digging too deep, I always do.
I see my fate on the surface
I look a lot like Narcissus
A dark abyss of an emptiness
Standing on the edge of a drowning blue.
I look behind my ears for the green
Even my sweat smells clean
Glare off the white hurts my eyes.
Gotta get out of bed get a hammer and a nail
Learn how to use my hands, not just my head
I think myself into jail
Now I know a refuge never grows
From a chin in a hand in a thoughtful pose
Gotta tend the earth if you want a rose.
I had a lot of good intentions
Sit around for fifty years and then collect a pension,
Started seeing the road to hell and just where it starts
But my life is more than a vision
The sweetest part is acting after making a decision
I started seeing the whole as a sum of its parts
My life is part of the global life
I'd found myself becoming more immobile
When I'd think a little girl in the world can't do anything.
A distant nation my community
A street person my responsibility
If I have a care in the world I have a gift to bring.

Come Together

The Beatles's song

Here come old flattop he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

He wear no shoeshine he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola
He say "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
Come together right now over me

He bag production he got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard he one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease
Come together right now over me

He roller-coaster he got early warning
He got muddy water he one mojo filter
He say "One and one and one is three"
Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see
Come together right now over me
