Classics Live!

Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face gettin' clearer
The past is gone
It went by like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way?
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay

Yeah I know, nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know, how to win

Half my life's in books' written pages
Live and learn from fools and from sages
You know it's true
All the things come back to you,

Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away

Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away

Dream on, dream on, dream on,
Dream yourself a dream come true
Dream on, dream on, dream on,
Dream until your dream comes true
Dream on, dream on, dream on, dream on,
Dream on, dream on, dream on, dream on

Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away

Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away

It ain't easy, livin' like a gypsy,
Tell ya honey how I feel
I've been dreaming, floatin' down a stream and
Losin' touch with all that is real
Whole earth lover, keepin' under cover,
Never knowin' where you've been
You've been fadin', always out paradin,
Keepin' touch with Mama Kin

Well you've always got your tail on the wag
Shootin' fire from your mouth just like a dragon
You act like a perpertual drag
You better check it out,
'Cause someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon

It ain't easy, livin' like you wanna,
It's so hard to find piece of mind, yes it is
The way I see it, you've got to say shit
But don't forget to drop me a line

Said you're as bald as an egg at eighteen
And workin' for you dad is just a drag
He still stuffs your mouth with your dreams
You better check it out,
'Cause someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon

Keep in touch with Mama Kin
Tell her where you've gone and been
Livin' out your fantasy,
Sleeping late and smoking tea

Keep in touch with Mama Kin
Tell her where you've gone and been
Livin' out your fantasy,
Sleeping late and smoking tea

It aint easy, livin' like ya wanna,
its so hard to find piece of mind
The way I see it, you've got to say shit
But don't forget to drop me a line

Said you're as bald as an egg at eighteen
And workin' for you dad is just a drag
He still stuff your mouth with your dreams
You better check it out,
'Cause someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon

Keep in touch with Mama Kin
Tell her where you've gone and been
Livin' out your fantasy,
Sleeping late and smoking tea

Keep in touch with Mama Kin
I said tell her where you've gone and been
Livin' out your fantasy,
Sleeping late and smoking tea

Down to who knows who
Just to socialize
I'm waiting for my girls
When you caught my eyes

You got no way to make a man honey
You got to understand
I'm your man, child, lord of the thighs

Well, well, Lordie my God
What do we got here?
She's flashin' 'cross the floor
Make it perfectly clear

You're the bait, and you're the hook
Someone bound to take a look
I'm your man, child, Lord of the Thighs

You must of come here to find it
You've got the look in your eyes
Although you really don't mind it
I am the lord of your thighs

You must of come here to find it
You've got the look in your eyes
Although you really don't mind it
I am the lord of your thighs

Well, on a train, I met a dame
She rather handsome, we kind looked the same
She was pretty, from New York City
I'm walkin' down that old fair lane
I'm in heat, I'm in love
But I just couldn't tell her so

I said, train kept a rollin' all night long
Train kept a rollin' all night long
Train kept a rollin' all night long
Train kept a rollin' all night long
With a heave, and a ho
But I just couldn't tell her so

Well, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way
I'm in heat, I'm in love
But I just couldn't tell her so

On your way, get along, sweet little woman get along
On your way
I'm in heat, I'm in love
But I just couldn't tell her

Well, we made a stop in Albequerque
She must'a thought I was a real cool jerk
Got off the train, and lookin' handsome
Lookin' so good, Jack, I couldn't let her go
But I just couldn't tell her so

I said, train kept a rollin' all night long
Train kept a rollin' all night long
Train kept a rollin' all night long
Train kept a rollin' all night long
I'm in heat, I'm in love

Sweet Emotion
Sweet Emotion

Talk about things and nobody cares
You're wearin' other things that nobody wears
You're callin' my name, but I gotta make clear
I can't say, baby, where I'll be in a year

Some sweet-talkin' mama with a face like a gent
Said my get up and go must've got up and went
Well, I got good news, she's a real good liar
'Cause my backstage boogie set your pants on fire

Sweet Emotion
Sweet Emotion

I pulled into town in a police car
Your daddy said I took you just a little too far
You're tellin' her things, but your girlfriend lied
You can't catch me 'cause the rabbit done died
Yes it did!

You stand in the front just a-shakin' your ass
I'll take you back stage you can drink from my glass
I'm talkin' 'bout somethin' you can sure understand
'Cause a month on the road and I'll be eatin' from your hand

Long ago in days I'm told
Were ruled by Lords of greed
Maidens fared with gold
They dared to bare their wombs that bleed

Kings and queens and guillotines
Taking lives denied
Starch and parchment laid the laws
When bishops took the ride
Only to deceive

Oh I know I lived this life before
Somehow know now truths I must be sure
Tossin, turnin', nightmares burnin'
Dreams of swords in hand
Sailin' ships the Viking spits the
Blood of father's land
Only to deceive

Live in times of knights and mares
Raising swords for maidens fair
Sneer at death fear only loss of pride

Live in other centuries
Deja vu or what you please
Follows true to all who do or die

Screams of no reply, they died
Screams of no reply, and died
Lordy lordy they died
Lordy lordy they died

Live and do or die
Long ago in days I'm told
They died
Kings and queens and guillotines
Live and no reply
They died
Long ago in days I'm told
Kings and queens and guillotines

Take a walk in the warm New England sun
Ain't no time to look for clues
You get the point from Uncle Sam's loaded gun
Who be the hand that light the fuse

A take a look, take a look at my old billy goat
He used to raise all kinds of hell
He took a dose of radiation dope
A back in the barn is where he felt
Like hell

Lucy, chromosome
Lucy, superdome

What makes you think you patronizin' my old friends
After you ride in my car, car
What do you do when your oil's Mexican
OPEC boys, you went too far, too far

Lucy, superdome
Lucy, chromosome
Lucy, papadome
Lucy, sing the song

Dig it up
Live it up
A dig it up
Live it up

Look out!

Major

Major Barbara sits in the fields
And waits for her crops to grow
She sits in a chair, that
She made outta wood
So many many years ago

Major, why won't they grow?
You give 'em their water and hope
Major, why won't they grow?

She waits all day
And she hopes through the night
For a new day that might show
A bright yellow sun
That will make the crops come
And let the old days go

Major, why won't they grow?
You've given them water and hope
Major, why won't they grow?

Major
Look out in your field
Tell me what do you see shinin' through

Major
Look after your fields
And your fields will look after you

Yes they do
Yes they do

Major
Look out in your fields
Tell me what do you see shinnin' through

Major
Look after your fields
And your fields will look after you

Yes they do
Yeah they do
