Deep Purple In Concert (1st disc) |
The sky is red, I don't understand, past midnight I still see the land. People are sayin' the woman is damned, she makes you burn with a wave of her hand. The city's a blaze, the town's on fire. The woman's flames are reaching higher. We were fools, we called her liar. All I hear is "Burn!" I didn't believe she was devil's sperm. She said, "Curse you all, you'll never learn! When I leave there's no return." The people laughed till she said, "Burn!" Warning came, no one cared. Earth was shakin', we stood and stared. When it came no one was spared. Still I hear "Burn!" You know we had no time, we could not even try. You know we had no time. You know we had no time, we could not even try. You know we had no time. The sky is red, I don't understand, past midnight I still see the land. People are sayin' the woman is damned, she makes you burn with a wave of her hand. Warning came, no one cared. Earth was shakin, we stood and stared. When it came no one was spared. Still I hear "Burn!"
She was a juke-box dancer A blue eyed gypsy queen She always had an answer For what she'd done And where she'd been A feathercane Lady Midnight For all around to see She spoke with words of wisdom And this is what she said to me Lady luck C'mon give me what I want Pull me up Lady luck If I see you again I will call you my friend I have always been a sinner But then the lady came along She stole my heart and turned me 'round 'Till I didn't know right from wrong She whispered words of kindness I'd never ever heard before Golden words and silver tongue Till I really couldn't take no more Lady luck C'mon give me what I want Pull me up Lady luck If I see you again I will call you my friend C'mon shake me
When night time comes And I'm ten thousand miles away Just lose yourself And watch the band kick back and play Get up--keep in line It's gettin' tighter all the time You say you're feelin' fine It's gettin' tighter all the time Get a load off your mind This place is right It's hard to find The mood is set alright It's gonna be a long long night You keep spinnin' 'round You find it hard to touch the ground And time is all it takes You'll find it easy once you make Get up--keep in line It's gettin' tighter all the time Gettin' tighter Gettin' tighter
You can walk through fire Make the north wind blow Squeeze 'n' tease me honey When you shake your body You move my soul Let me be your lover Won't you let me be your child Take me through your universe Y'know that when you smile You drive me wild Love child Driving me wild Love child Always teasin' me You can ride your pony Day dream in fairy tales All I know is I need more When I see you dance the seven veils
We all came out to Montreux On the Lake Geneva shoreline To make records with a mobile We didn't have much time Frank Zappa and the Mothers Were at the best place around But some stupid with a flare gun Burned the place to the ground Smoke on the water, fire in the sky They burned down the gambling house It died with an awful sound Funky & Claude was running in and out Pulling kids out the ground When it all was over We had to find another place But Swiss time was running out It seemed that we would lose the race Smoke on the water, fire in the sky We ended up at the Grand Hotel It was empty cold and bare But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside Making our music there With a few red lights and a few old beds We make a place to sweat No matter what we get out of this I know we'll never forget Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
Georgia, Georgia, just smile and ease my pain An old sweet song Georgia on my mind Georgia, Georgia, just smile... An old sweet song, baby Georgia on my mind (I love you baby, I love you so ) or... (You know what I'm talking about)
You're lazy just stay in bed You're lazy just stay in bed You don't want no money You don't want no bread If you're drowning you don't clutch no straw If you're drowning you don't clutch no straw You don't want to live you don't want to cry no more Well my trying ain't done no good I said my trying ain't done no good You don't make no effort no not like you should Lazy you just stay in bed Lazy you just stay in bed You don't want no money You don't want no bread
