Disc 1: 1. Custard Pie     Drop down baby let daddy see. Drop down mama just dream of me. Mama allow me I'd fool around all night long. Well I may look like I'm crazy, I still know right from wrong. See me coming slowly on by your door. Ain't no stranger, I been this way before. See me coming mama slowly on by your door. I ain't no stranger I been this way before. Put on your night shirt and your morning gown. You know by night I'm gonna shake 'em on down. Put on your night shirt, Mama and your morning gown. Well you know by night, I'm surely gonna shake 'em on down. Your custard pie: sweet and nice. When you cut it mama save me a slice. Your custard pie I declare ain't seen the like. I like your custard pie. When you cut it mama, Mama please save me a slice. I'll chew on a piece of your custard pie. Chew on a piece of your custard pie. Drop down. Drop down. 2. The Rover     I've been to London, Seen seven wonders, I know to trip is just to fall. I used to walk it, Sometimes I'd roll it, I always knew what it was for. There can be no denying, That we'll really shake em down. And the flag we're flying, Is the new flag of the land. If we could just join hands. If we could just join hands. If we could just join hands. Converse the planet, When heaven send me, I saw the kings who rule them all. Still by the firelight, And purple moonlight, I hear the rusting rivers call. And the wind is crying, Of a love that won't grow cold. My lover she is lying, On the dark side of the globe. If we could just join hands. If we could just join hands. If we could just join hands. You got me rocking when I ought to be alone, Darling come on tell me darling which way to go. You keep me rocking baby then you keep me spinning, Won't you tell me darling which way to go. Oh how I wonder, Oh how I worry, And I would dearly like to know. I always wonder, If earthly plunder, Will leave us anything to show. And our time is flying, See the candle burning low. Is the new world rising, From the shambles of the old? If we could just join hands. If we could just join hands. If we could just join hands. 3. In My Time of Dying     In my time of dying, Want nobody to moan. All I want for you to do, Is take my body home. Well well well so I can die easy. Well well well so I can die easy. Jesus got to make you shiver. Jesus gonna make you. Jesus gonna make you my dying 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. Well well well so I can die easy. Jesus gonna make you somebody. Jesus gonna make you. Jesus gonna make you my dying bed. Oh Saint Peter, I can make amends, Won't you let me in. I never did no wrong, I never did no wrong. Oh Gabriel, Let me blow your horn, Let me blow your horn. I never did no wrong, Did no wrong. I only can be young once. I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong, No not once. Oh I did somebody so good, Somebody some good. Oh did somebody some good, I must have did somebody some good, Oh I believe I did. I seen the smiling faces. I know I must have left some traces. And I see them in the streets. And I see them in the theater. And I even felt my feet. And I never tried to be real. Oh lord deliver me, All the wrongs I've done. Oh you can deliver me lord, I only wanted to have some fun. Oh keep the angels marching, Keep them marching, Keep them marching, Oh my Jesus... That's got to be my Jesus. It's got to be my Jesus. Oh take me home. Come on, come on. I can hear the angels singing, Here they come, Bye bye. Oh feels pretty good up here. I'll touch Jesus. I seen him, Come on. Oh don't you make it my dying dying dying. 4. Houses of the Holy     Let me take you to the movies. Can I take you to the show. Let me be yours ever truly. Can I make your garden grow. From the houses of the holy. We can watch the white doves go. From the door comes Satan's daughter. And it only goes to show that you know. There's an angel on my shoulder. In my hand a sword of gold. Let me wander in your garden. And the seeds of love I'll sow. So the world is spinning faster. Are you dizzy when you're stoned. Let the music be your master. Will you heed the master's call. Said there ain't no use in crying. Because it will only only drive you mad. Does it hurt to hear him lying. Was this the only world you had. So let me take you take you to the movie. Can I take you baby to the show. Why don't you let me be yours ever truly. Can I make your garden grow. 5. Trampled Under Foot     Greasy slicked down body, groovy leather trim I like the way you hold the road, mama, it ain't no sin Talkin' 'bout love (X3) Trouble-free transmission, helps your oil's flow Mama, let me pump your gas, mama, let me do it all Talkin' 'bout love (X3) Dig that heavy metal underneath your hood Baby, I could work all night, believe I've got the perfect tools Talkin' 'bout love (X3) A model built for comfort, really built with style Special is tradition, mama, let me feast my eyes Talkin' 'bout love (X3) Factory air-conditioned, heat begins to rise Guaranteed to run for hours, mama your the perfect size Talkin' 'bout love (X3) Groovin' on the freeway, gauge is on the red Gun down on my gasoline, I believe I'm gonna crack a head.

Kashmir     Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, with stars to fill my dreams. I am a traveller of both time and space, to be where I have been, and sit with elders of a gentle race this world has seldom seen, who talk of days for which they sit and wait when all will be revealed. With talk and song from tounges of lilting grace the sounds caressed my ears. Though not a word I've heard could I relate, the story was quite clear. All I see turns to brown, as the sun burns the ground, and my eyes fill with sand as I scan this wasted land trying to find where I've been. Oh pilot of the storm who leaves no trace like thoughts inside a dream. Who hid the path that led me to that place with yellow desert screen? My Shangrila beneath the summer moon, I will return again. Sure as the dust it blows high in June when moving through Kashmir. Oh Father of the four winds fill my sails to cross the sea of years with no provisions but an open face to flaunt the straits of fear.

Disc 2: 1. In the Light     And if you feel that you can't go on, And your will's sinking low, Just believe and you can't go wrong, In the light you will find the road. Hey, did you ever believe, That I could leave you, Standing out in the cold? Hey baby I know how it feels, Because I have slipped through, To the very depths of my soul. Oh baby I just want to show you, What I'd give you, In case you ever been on the road. Now listen as I was and would do for you too, Honey, as you would do for me. I would share your load. Let me share your load. And if you feel that you can't go on, In the light you will find the road. Hey, the winds of change my blow around you, And that will always be so. Oh, when love is pain it can devour you, If you are never alone. I'll share your load. I will share your load. Baby let me, Oh, let me. In the light. Everybody needs the light. 2. Bron-Yr-Aur     [instrumental] 3. Down By the Seaside Down by the seaside, See the boats go sailing. Can the people hear, What the little fish are saying. People turned away. People turned away. Down in the city streets, See all the folk go racing. No time left, To pass the time of day. People turned away. People turned away. So far away, so far away. Do you still do the twist, Do you find you remember things that well. Some folks twistin' every day, Though sometimes it's awful hard to tell. Out in the country, Hear the people singing. Singing about their progress, Knowing where they're going. People turned away. People turned away. Sing loud for the sunshine, Pray hard for the rain. And show your love for lady nature, And she will come back again. People turned away. People turned away. Now they know where they're going. 4. Ten Years Gone     Then as it was, Then again it will be. Though the course may change sometimes, Rivers always reach the sea. Like stars of fortune, Each has separate rays. On the wings of maybe, Down in birds of prey. Kind of makes me feel sometimes, I didn't have to grow. But as the eagle leaves the nest, He got so far to go. Changes fill my time, Baby that's all right with me. In the midst I think of you, And how it used to be. Did you ever really need somebody? And really need them bad. Did you ever really want somebody? The best love you ever had. Do you ever remember me baby? Did it feel so good. Because it was just the first time, And you knew you would. Turn the eyes and I sparkle, Senses growing keen. Tasting love along the way, See your feathers preen. Kind of make you feel sometimes, Didn't have to go. We are eagles of one nest, The nest is in our souls. Vixen in my dreams, With great surprise to me. Never thought I'd see your face, The way it used to be. Oh darling, oh darling. I'm never gonna leave you. Ten years gone, holding on, ten years gone. 5. Night Flight I received a message from my brother across the water, He sat laughing as he wrote "the end's in sight." So I said goodbye to all my friends, And packed my hopes inside a matchbox, Because I know it's time to fly. Oh yeah come on meet me in the morning, Meet me in the middle of the night. Oh yeah the morning light is coming, Don't it make you wanna feel all right. I just jumped a train that never stops, So now so how'll they know I never, Finished paying for my ride. Just now someone pushed a gun into my hand, Tell me I'm the type of man, To fight the fight that I'll require. Oh yeah come on meet me in the morning, Meet me in the middle of the night. Oh yeah the morning light is coming, Don't it make you wanna feel all right. Oh mama well I think it's time I'm leaving, Nothing here to make me stay. Oh mama well it must be time I'm going, They're knocking down them doors, And trying to take me away. Please Mr. Brakeman won't you ring your bell, And ring it loud and clear. Please Mr. Fireman won't you ring your bell, Tell the people they got to fly away from here. I once saw a picture of a lady with a baby, Southern lady had a very very special smile. We are in the middle of a change in destination, When the train starts all together we will smile. Oh yeah come on meet me in the morning, Meet me in the middle of the night. Everybody know the morning time is coming, Don't it make you wanna feel all right. 6. The Wanton Song     Silent woman in the night you came, Took my seed from my shaking frame. Same old fire another flame, And the wheel rolls on. Silent woman through the flames you come, From the deep behind the sun. Seems my nightmares have now begun, Left me barely holding on. With blazing eyes you see my trembling hand, When we know the time has come. Lose my senses, lose command, Feel your healing rivers run. Is it every time I fall, That I think this is the one? In the darkness can you hear me call? Another day has just begun. Silent woman my face is changed, Some know in ways to come. Feel my fire needs a brand new flame, And the wheel rolls on. 7. Boogie with Stu     Been in town my baby, We just got to run home. Yeah yeah yeah yeah darling, We just got to go home. I don't want no tutti-frutti, no lollipop, Come on baby just rock, rock, rock. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah honey, We been shaking all night. Oh, darling we just got to run right, Aah, my head, rock on. Rock On. Hey babe, hey babe. Hey babe, hey babe. Hey babe, hey babe. Hey babe, hey babe. I don't want no tutti-frutti, no lollipop, Come on, baby, just rock, rock, rock. I don't want no tutti-frutti, no lollipop, Come on, baby, just rock, rock, yeah. 8. Black Country Woman     Hey hey mama, what's the matter here. Hey hey mama, what's the matter here. You didn't have to tell me that you love me so, Didn't have to love me mama let me go. Hey hey mama, what's the matter here. You didn't have to make me a total disgrace, Didn't have to leave me with that beer in my face. Hey hey mama, what's the matter here. Oh that's all right, it's awful doggone clear. Hey hey baby, why you treat me mean. Oh oh baby, why you treat me mean. You didn't have to crucify me like you did, You didn't have to tell me I was just your kid. Hey hey mama, why'd you treat me mean. You didn't have to say you'd always be by my side, Didn't have to tell me you'd be my blushing bride. Hey hey mama, why you treat me mean. But that's all right, I know your sister too. You didn't have to tell me that you love me so, You didn't have to leave me mama, let me go. Hey hey mama, what is wrong with you. You didn't have to leave me like a total disgrace, You didn't have to leave me with that beer on my face. Hey hey mama, what is wrong with you. Oh but that's all right, I'd be the same way too, oh yeah. Now my baby you didn't have to crucify me like you did, You didn't have to tell me I was just your kid. Hey hey mama, what's the matter here. You didn't have to tell me you would be my own, You didn't have to tell me baby, let me go. Hey hey mama, what is wrong with you. Oh that's all right, I know your sister too. What's the matter with you mama. 9. Sick Again From the window of your rented limousine, I'm looking in your eyes. One day soon you're gonna reach sixteen, Ain't a lady in the city of lights. Do you know my name? Do I look the same? You know I'm the one you want, I must be the one you need. Reflections baby from your teenage dream, In the lobby of a hotel cafe dive. Through the circus of the L. A. queens, I passed you round went right on by. How you play the game, Still don't know your name. You know I'm the one you want, Yes I'd love to be the one you need. Lips like cherries on the frown of a queen, Come on flash it right in my eyes. Said you dug me since you were thirteen, Then you giggle as you hurt inside. Do you know my name? Do I look the same? I got to tell you I'm the one you want, And everybody knows I'm the one you need. Hours hours and the moments in between, Oh baby I could count the times. I've thought of coming on a plane and leaving, Baby dry those silver eyes. Do you know my name? Do I look the same? You know I'm the one you want, I'm the one you need.
