You made me happy every single day,
But now I've got to go away, oh.

Baby, baby, baby,
That's when it's calling me,
That's when it's calling me back home.

In the days of my youth,
I was told what it means to be a man.
Now I've reached the age,
I've tried to do all those things the best I can.
No matter how I try,
I find my way to do the same old jam.

Good times, bad times,
You know I've had my share.
When my woman left home
With a brown eyed man,
Well I still don't seem to care.

Seventeen I fell in love,
With a girl as sweet as could be.
It only took a couple of days,
Till she was rid of me.
She swore that she would be all mine,
And love me till the end.
When I whispered in her ear,
I lost another friend.

Good times, bad times,
You know I've had my share.
When my woman left home
With a brown eyed man,
Well I still don't seem to care.

I know what it means to be alone,
I sure do wish I was at home.
I don't care what the neighbors say,
I'm gonna love you each and every day.
You can feel the beat within my heart.
Realize sweet babe we ain't ever gonna part.

Been dazed and confused for so long it's not true,
Wanted a woman never bargained for you.
Lots of people talk and few of them know,
Soul of a woman was created below.

You hurt and abused telling all of your lies,
Run arounds sweet baby lord how they hypnotize.
Sweet little baby I don't know where you've been,
God I love you baby here I come again.

Every day I work so hard bringing home my hard earned pay
Try to love you baby but you push me away.
Don't know where you're going only know just where you've been,
Sweet little baby I want you again.

Been dazed and confused for so long it's not true,
Wanted a woman never bargained for you.
Take it easy baby let them say what they will.
(Did your) tongue wag so much when I sent you the bill?

You need cooling,
Baby I'm not fooling.
I'm gonna send you,
Back to schooling.
Way down inside,
Honey you need it.
I'm gonna give you my love,
I'm gonna give you my love.

Wanna whole lotta love.

You've been learning,
Baby I been learning.
All them good times,
Baby baby I've been yearning.
Way way down inside,
Honey you need I.
I'm gonna give you my love,
I'm gonna give you my love.

Wanna whole lotta love.

You've been cooling,
Baby I've been drooling.
All the good times,
I've been misusing.
Way way down inside,
I'm gonna give you my love.
I'm gonna give you every inch of my love,
Gonna give you my love.

Wanna whole lotta love.

Way down inside woman,
You need love.

Hey fellas have you heard the news?
You know that Annie's back in town.
It won't take long just watch and see,
How the fellas lay their money down.
Her style is new but the face is the same,
As it was so long ago.
But from her eyes a different smile,
Like that of one who knows.

Well it's been ten years and maybe more,
Since I first set eyes on you.
The best years of my life gone by,
Here I am alone and blue.
Some people cry and some people die,
By the wicked ways of love.
But I'll just keep on rolling along
With the grace of the lord above.

People talking all around,
About the way you left me flat.
I don't care what the people say,
I know where their jive is at.
One thing I do have on my mind,
If you can clarify please do,
It's the way you call me by another guy's name,
When I try to make love to you.

Work so hard I couldn't unwind,
Get some money saved.
Abuse my love a thousand times,
However hard I tried.
Heartbreaker your time has come,
Can't take your evil way.
Go away heartbreaker.

Leaves are falling all around,
It's time I was on my way.
Thanks to you I'm much obliged,
For such a pleasant stay.

But now it's time for me to go,
The autumn moon lights my way.
For now I smell the rain,
And with it pain,
And it's headed my way.
Sometimes I grow so tired,
But I know I've got one thing I got to do,

Ramble on,
And now's the time the time is now.
To sing my song,
I'm going around the world,
I got to find my girl.
On my way,
I've been this way ten years to the day.
Ramble on,
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams.

Got no time to for spreading roots,
The time has come to be gone.
And though our health we drank a thousand times,
It's time to ramble on.

Ramble on,
And now's the time the time is now.
To sing my song,
I'm going around the world,
I got to find my girl.
On my way,
I've been this way ten years to the day.
Ramble on,
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams.

I ain't telling no lie.

Mine's a tale that can't be told,
My freedom I hold dear.
How years ago in days of old,
When magic filled the air.
It was in the darkest depths of Mordor,
I met a girl so fair.
But Gollum and the evil one crept up,
And slipped away with her.

Ain't nothing I can do no,
I guess I'll keep on rambling.
I'm gonna shake.
Gonna ramble on, sing my song.
Gonna work my way around the world.
I can't stop this feeling in my heart,
Gotta keep searching for my baby.

We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods,
Will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde singing and crying:
"Valhalla I am coming!"

On we sweep,
With thrashing oar.
Our only goal will be the western shore.

We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green,
Can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war,
We are your overlords.

On we sweep,
With thrashing oar.
Our only goal will be the western shore.

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day despite all your losing.

Her face is cracked from smiling,
All the fears that she's been hiding,
And it seems that pretty soon everybody's gonna know.
And her voice is sore from shouting,
Cheering winners who are losing,
And she worries if their days are few,
And soon they'll have to go.

My my my I'm so happy,
I'm gonna join the band,
We gonna dance and sing in celebration,
We're in the promised land.

She hears them talk of new ways,
To protect the home she lives in.
Then she wonders what it's all about,
When they break down the door.

Her name is Brown or White or Black,
You know her very well,
You hear her cries of mercy,
As the winners toll the bell.

My my my I'm so happy,
I'm gonna join the band,
We gonna sing and dance in celebration,
We're in the promised land.

There is a train that leaves the station,
Heading for your destination,
But the price you pay to nowhere has increased a dollar more.
Yes it has.
And if you walk you're gonna get there,
And though it takes a little longer,
And when you see it in the distance,
You will wring your hands and moan.

Working seven to eleven every night,
It really makes my life a drag.
I don't think that's right.
I've really been the best of fools,
I did what I could.
Beause I love you baby.
But baby, since I've been loving you,
I'm about to lose my worried mind.

Everybody trying to tell me,
That you didn't mean me no good.
I've been trying let me tell you,
Let me tell you I really did the best I could.
I've been working seven to eleven every night,
It kinda makes my life a drag.
Lord you know it ain't right.
Since I've been loving you,
I'm about to lose my worried mind.

Said I've been crying,
My tears they fell like rain.
Don't you hear,
Don't you hear them falling?
Don't you hear,
Don't you hear them falling?

Do you remember mama when I knocked upon your door?
I said you had the nerve to tell me you didn't want me no more.
I open my front door hearing my back door slam.
You must have one of them new fangled,
New fangled back door man.

I've been working from seven to eleven every night,
It kinda makes my life a drag.
Since I've been loving you,
I'm about to lose my worried mind.

Hey hey mama said the way you move,
Gonna make you sweat gonna make you groove.
Oh oh child way you shake that thing,
Gonna make you burn gonna make you sting.
Hey hey baby when you walk that way
Watch your honey drip can't keep away.

I gotta roll can't stand still,
Got a flaming heart can't get my fill.
Eyes that shine burning red,
Dreams of you all through my head.

Hey baby,
Oh baby,
Pretty baby.

Hey baby,
Oh baby,
Pretty baby.

Didn't take too long before I found out,
What people mean by down and out.
Spent my money took my car,
Started tellin' her friends she gonna be a star.
I don't know but I been told,
A big legged woman ain't got no soul.

All I ask for when I pray,
Steady rollin' woman gonna come my way.
Need a woman gonna hold my hand,
And tell me no lies make me a happy man.

It's been a long time since I rock and rolled,
It's been a long time since I did the stroll.
Let me get it back let me get it back,
Let me get it back where I come from.
It's been a long time been a long time,
Been a long lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely time.

It's been a long time since the book of love,
I can't count the tears of a life with no love.
Carry me back carry me back,
Carry me back baby where I come from.
It's been a long time been a long time,
Been a long lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely time.

Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,
Making vows that just can't work right.
Open your arms opens your arms,
Open your arms baby let my love come running in.
It's been a long time been a long time,
Been a long lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely time.

Queen of Light took her bow,
And then she turned to go.
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom,
And walked the night alone.

Dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morning light.
The dark Lord rides in force tonight,
And time will tell us all.

Throw down your plow and hoe,
Rest not to lock your homes.
Side by side we wait the might,
Of the darkest of them all.

I hear the horses' thunder down in the valley below.
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon,
Waiting for the eastern glow.

The apples of the valley hold,
The seas of happiness.
The ground is rich from tender care,
Repay do not forget.

Dance in the dark of night,
Ssing to the morning light.
The apples turn to brown and black,
The tyrant's face is red.

Oh the war is common cry,
Pick up you swords and fly.
The sky is filled with good and bad,
That mortals never know.

Oh well the night is long the beads of time pass slow.
Tired eyes on the sunrise,
Waiting for the eastern glow.

The pain of war cannot exceed,
The woe of aftermath.
The drums will shake the castle wall,
The ring wraiths ride in black.

Sing as you raise your bow,
Shoot straighter than before.
No comfort has the fire at night,
That lights the face so cold.

Dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morning light.
The magic runes are writ in gold,
To bring the balance back.

At last the sun is shining,
The clouds of blue roll by.
With flames from the dragon of darkness,
The sunlight blinds his eyes.

Walking in the park just the other day baby,
What do you think I saw?
Crowds of people sitting on the grass with flowers in their hair said,
"Hey boy, do you wanna score?"
And you know how it is,
I really don't know what time it was,
So I asked them if I could stay a while.

I didn't notice but it had got very dark and I was really,
Really out of my mind.
Just then a policeman stepped up to me and asked us said please hey would we care,
To all get in line.
Get in line.
Well you know,
They asked us to stay for tea and have some fun,
He said that his friends would all drop by.

Why don't you take a good look at yourself and describe what you see,
And baby baby baby do you like it?
There you sit, sitting spare like a book on a shelf rusting,
Not trying to fight it.
You really don't care if they're coming,
I know that it's all a state of mind.

If you go down in the streets today baby you better,
You better open your eyes.
Folk down there really don't care really don't care don't care really don't,
Which way the pressure lies.
So I've decided what I'm gonna do now.
So I'm packing my bags for the Misty Mountains,
Where the spirits go now,
Over the hills where the spirits fly.

I really don't know.

There's a lady who's sure,
All that glitters is gold,
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows,
If the stores are all closed,
With a word she can get what she came for.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

There's a sign on the wall,
But she wants to be sure,
Because you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook,
There's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
It makes me wonder.

There's a feeling I get,
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen,
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
It makes me wonder.

And it's whispered that soon,
If we all call the tune,
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn,
For those who stand long,
And the forests will echo with laughter.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow,
Don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes there are two paths you can go by,
But in the long run,
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won't go,
In case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him.
Dear lady can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know,
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road,
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know,
Who shines white light and wants to show.
How everything still turns to gold,
And if you listen very hard,
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all.
To be a rock and not to roll.

And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
