| 1. | Something In The Way She Moves |
There's something in the way she moves Or looks my way or calls my name That seems to leave this troubled world behind And if I'm feeling down and blue Or troubled by some foolish game She always seems to make me change my mind And I feel fine anytime she's around me now She's around me now almost all the time And if I'm well you can tell she's been with me now She's been with me now quite a long long time And I feel fine Every now and then the things I lean on loose their meaning And I find myself careering Into places where I shouldn't let me go She has the power to go where no one else can find me Yes and to silently remind me Of the happiness and good times that I know It isn't what she's got to say Or how she thinks or where she's been To me the words are nice the way they sound I like to hear them best that way It doesn't much matter what they mean But she says them mostly just to calm me down And I feel fine anytime she's around me now She's around me now almost all the time And if I'm well you can tell she's been with me now She's been with me now quite a long long time And I feel fine |
| 2. | Carolina In My Mind |
In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina Can't you see the sunshine Can't youjust feel the moonshine Maybe just like a friend of mine It hit me from behind Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind Karen she's a silver sun You best walk her way and watch it shinin' Watch her watch the mornin' come A silver tear appearing now I'm cryin' Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind There ain't no doubt it no ones mind That loves the finest thing around Whisper something warm and kind And hey babe the sky's on fire, I'm Dyin' Ain't I goin' to Carolina in my mind In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina Can't you see the sunshine Can't you just feel the moonshine Maybe just like a friend of mine It hit me from behind Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind Dark and silent last last night I think I might have heard the highway calling Geese in flight and dogs that bite Signs that might be omens say I going, going I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind With a holy host of others standing 'round me Still I'm on the dark side of the moon And it seems like it goes on like this forever You must forgive me If I'm up and gone to Carolina in my mind In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina Can't you see the sunshine Can't you just feel the moonshine Maybe just like a friend of mine Ithit me from behind Yes I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind |
| 3. | Fire And Rain |
Just yesterday mornin' they let me know you were gone Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you I walked out this mornin' and I wrote down this song I just can't remember who to send it to I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend but I always thought that I'd see you again Won't you look down upon me Jesus, you'vegotta help me make a stand You just got to see me through another day My body's aching and my time is at hand I won't make it any other way. I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend but I always thought that I'd see you again I've been walking my mind to an easy time my back turned toward the sun Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around Well there's hours of timeon the telephone line to talk about things to come Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground I've seen fire and I've seen rain I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend but I always thought that I'd see you again |
| 4. | Sweet Baby James |
There is a young cowboy He lives on the range. His horse and his cattle Are his only companions. He works in the saddle And he sleeps in the canyon, Waiting for summer, his pastures to change. As the moon rises He sits by his fire, Thinking 'bout women And glasses of beer. And closing his eyes As the dogies retire, He sings out a song Which issoft but it's clear. As if maybe someone could hear. Good night youmoonlight ladies Rock 'a bye sweet baby James. Deep greens and blues Are the colors I choose. Won't you let me go down in my dreams? And rock 'a bye sweet baby James. Now the first of December Was covered in snow. So was the turnpike >From Stockbridge to Boston. Though the Berkshires Seemed dreamlike On account of that frosting. With ten miles behind me And ten thousand more to go. There's a song that they sing When they take to the highway A song that they sing When they take to the sea. A song that they sing Of their home in the sky. Maybe you can believe it If it helps you to sleep. But singing works just fine for me. Good night you moonlight ladies Rock 'a bye sweet baby James. Deep greens and blues Are the colors I choose. Won't you let me go down in my dreams? And rock 'a bye sweet baby James. |
| 5. | Country Road |
Take to the highway won't you lend me your name Your way and my way seem to be one and the same Mamma don't understand it She wants to know where I've been I'd have to be some kind of natural born fool To want to pass that way again But I could feel it On a country road Sailon home to Jesus won't you good girls and boys I'm all in pieces, you can have your own choice But I can hear a heavenly band full of angels And they're coming to set me free I don't know nothing 'bout the why or when But I can tell that it's bound to be Because I could feel it, child, yeah On a country road I guess my feet know where they want meto go Walking on a country road Take to the highway won't you lend me your name Your way and my way seem to be one and the same, child Mamma don't understand it She wants to know where I've been I'd have to be some kind of natural born fool To want to pass that way again But Icould feel it On a country road Walk on down, walk on down, walk ondown Walk on down, walk on down a country road country road Walking on a country road |

| 8. | Walking Man |
Moving in silent desperation keeping an eye on the holy land a hypothetical destination say, who is this walking man Well the leaves havecome to turnin' and the goose has gone to flight and bridges are for burnin' so don't you let that yearnin' pass you by. Walking man, The walking man walks while any other man stops and talks but the walking man walks Well the frost is on the pumpkin and the hay is in the barn, yeah And Pappy's come to ramblin' on stumblin' around drunk down onthe farm and the walking man walks he doesn't know nothing at all any other man stops and talks but the walking man walks on by, walk on by Most everybody's got seeds to sow It ain't always easy for a weed to grow, no, no So he don't hold the rope for no one the short one's always missing, or something is never quite right ah, but who would want to listen to 'ya kissin' his existence goodnight Walking man, walk on by my door while any other man stops and talks but not the walking man he's the walking man born to walk, walk on walking man Well now, would he have wings to fly? Would he be free? Golden wings against thesky... |

| 10. | Mexico |
Way down here you need a reason to move Feel a fool running your stateside games Lose your load, leave your mind behind, Baby James Oh, Mexico It sounds so simple I just got to go The sun's so hot I forgot to go home Guess I'll have to go now "Americano" got the sleepy eye But his body's still shaking like a live wire Sleepy "Seņorita" with the eyes on fire Oh, Mexico It sounds so sweet with the sun sinking low Moon's so bright like to light up the night Make everything all right Baby's hungry and the money's all gone The folks back home don't want to talk on the phone She gets a long letter, sends back a postcard; times are hard Oh, down in Mexico I never really been so I don't really know Oh, Mexico I guess I'll have to go Oh, Mexico I never really been butI'd sure like to go Oh, Mexico I guess I'll have to go now |
