("He said, "No, dice, bud You gotta work late") Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues Well my mom and poppa told me "Son you gotta earn some money, If you want to use the car To go ridin' next Sunday." Well I wouldn't go to work Told the boss I was sick... (They said, "Now you can't use the car Cause you didn't work a lick") Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues I'm gonna take two weeks I'm gonna have a fine vacation Gonna take my problems To the United Nations Well I went to my congressman And he said, quote... ("I'd love to help you, son But you're too young to vote") Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Heart Full Of Soul Sick at heart and lonely, Deep in dark despair Thinking one thought only- Where is she tell me where And if she says to you She don't love me Just give her my message Tell her of my plea And I know if she had me back again Well I would never make her sad I've gotta heart full of soul She's been gone such a long time Longer than I can bear But if she says she wants me Tell her that I'll be there And if she says to you She don't love me Just give her my message Tell her of my plea. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For What It's Worth There's something happening here What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there Telling me I got to beware I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down There's battle lines being drawn Nobody's right if everybody's wrong Young people speaking their minds Getting so much resistance from behind I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down What a field-day for the heat A thousand people in the street Singing songs and carrying signs Mostly say, hooray for our side It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Paranoia strikes deep Into your life it will creep It starts when you're always afraid You step out of line, the man come and take you away We better stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, now, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Seeker I looked under chairs I looked under tables I try to find the key To fifty million fables They call me the seeker I've been searchin' low and high I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die I asked Bobby Dylan I asked the Beatles I asked Timothy Leary But he couldn't help me either They call me the seeker I've been searchin' low and high I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die People tend to hate me Cause I never smile As I ransack their homes they wanna shake my hand Focusin' on nowhere, investigatin' miles I'm a seeker, I'm a really desperate man I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die I learned how to raise my voice in anger Yeah but look at my face, ain't this a smile I'm happy when life's good, and when it's bad I cry I got values but I don't know how or why I'm lookin' for me You're lookin' for you We're lookin' at each other and we don't know what to do They call me the seeker I've been searchin' low and high I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mr. Soul Oh, hello, Mr. Soul, I dropped by to pick up a reason For the thought that I caught that my head is the event of the season Why in crowds just a trace of my face could seem so pleasin' I'll cop out to the change, but a stranger is putting the tease on I was down on a frown when the messenger brought me a letter I was raised by the praise of a fan who said I upset her Any girl in the world could have easily known me better She said "you're strange, but don't change," and I let her In a while, will the smile on my face turn to plaster? Stick around while the clown who is sick does the trick of disaster For the race of my head and my face is moving much faster Is it strange I should change? I don't know, why don't you ask her? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Seven and Seven Is When I was a boy I thought about the times I'd be a man I'd sit inside a bottle and pretend that I was in a jam In my lonely room I'd sit my mind in an ice cream cone You can throw me if you wanna 'cause I'm a bone and I go And I go "Oop-ip-ip, oop-ip-ip, yeah." If I don't start cryin' it's because that I have got no eyes My father's in the fireplace and my dog lies hypnotized Through a crack of light I was unable to find my way Trapped inside a night but I'm a day and I go And I go "Oop-ip-ip, oop-ip-ip, yeah." When I was a boy I thought about the times I'd be a man I'd sit inside a bottle and pretend that I was in a can Through a crack of light I was unable to find my way Trapped inside a night but I'm a day And I go "Oop-ip-ip, oop-ip-ip, yeah." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shapes Of Things Shapes of things before my eyes, Just teach me to despise. Will time make men more wise? Here within my lonely frame, My eyes just hurt my brain. But will it seem the same? Come tomorrow, will I be older? Come tomorrow, may be a soldier. Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today? Now the trees are almost green. But will they still be seen? When time and tide have been. Fall into your passing hands. Please don't destroy these lands. Don't make them desert sands. Soon I hope that I will find, Thoughts deep within my mind. That won't disgrace my kind. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Crossroads I went to the crossroads, fell down on my knees I went to the crossroads, fell down on my knees Asked the Lord above, have mercy now, save poor Bob if you please Standin' at the crossroads, tried to flag a ride Whee-hee, I tried to flag a ride Didn't nobody seem to know me, everybody pass me by Standin' at the crossroads, risin' sun goin' down Standin' at the crossroads baby, the risin' sun goin' down I believe to my soul now, po' Bob is sinkin' down You can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie Brown You can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie Brown That I got the crossroad blues this mornin', Lord, baby I'm sinkin' down I went to the crossroad, mama, I looked east and west I went to the crossroad, babe, I looked east and west Lord, I didn't have no sweet woman, ooh well, babe, in my distress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
