hahahaha, one shot, two shot, coppertone red... Arabella's got some interstellagator skin boots And a helter skelter around her little finger and I ride it endlessly She's got a Barbarella silver swimsuit And when she needs a shelter from reality she takes a dip in my daydreams My days end best when this sunset gets itself Behind that little lady sitting on the passenger side It's much less picturesque without her catching the light The horizon tries but it's just not as kind on the eyes As Arabella, oh As Arabella Just might have tapped into your mind and soul You can't be sure Arabella's got a 70s head But she's a modern lover It's an exploration, she's made of outer space And her lips are like the galaxy's edge And a kiss the colour of a constellation falling into place My days end best when this sunset gets itself Behind that little lady sitting on the passenger side It's much less picturesque without her catching the light The horizon tries but it's just not as kind on the eyes As Arabella, oh As Arabella Just might have tapped into your mind and soul You can't be sure That's magic in a cheetah print coat Just a slip underneath it I hope Asking if I can have one of those Organic cigarettes that she smokes Wraps her lips round the Mexican coke Makes you wish that you were the bottle Takes a sip of your soul and it sounds like... Just might have tapped into your mind and soul You can't be sure

One soft infested summer Me and Terry became friends Trying in vain to breathe The fire we born in Catching rides to the outskirts Tying faith between our teeth Sleeping in that old abandoned beach house Getting wasted in the heat And hiding on the backstreets Hiding on the backstreets With a love so hard and filled with defeat Running for our lives at night on them backstreets Slow dancing in the dark On the beach at Stockton's Wing Where desperate lovers park We sat with the last of the Duke Street Kings Huddled in our cars Waiting for the bells that ring In the deep heart of the night We let loose of everything To go running on the backstreets Running on the backstreets Terry you swore we'd live forever Taking it on them backstreets together Endless juke joints and Valentino drag Where famous dancers scraped the tears Up off the street dressed down in rags Running into the darkness Some hurt bad some really dying At night sometimes it seemed You could hear the whole damn city crying Blame it on the lies that killed us Blame it on the truth that ran us down You can blame it all on me Terry It don't matter to me now When the breakdown hit at midnight There was nothing left to say But I hated him And I hated you when you went away Laying here in the dark You're like an angel on my chest Just another tramp of hearts Crying tears of faithlessness Remember all the movies, Terry We'd go see Trying to learn to walk like the heroes We thought we had to be Well after all this time To find we're just like all the rest Stranded in the park And forced to confess To hiding on the backstreets Hiding on the backstreets Where we swore forever friends On the backstreets until the end Hiding on the backstreets Hiding on the backstreets...

FYI the STL Cards are giving a portion of their Dead tribute night proceeds to the Rex foundation. Glad I decided against the 1st Dead and Co. Couldn't make it if we tried... Nobody on the road Nobody on the beach I feel it in the air The summer's out of reach Empty lake, empty streets The sun goes down alone I'm driving by your house Though I know you're not home But I can see you- Your brown skin shinin' in the sun You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone I never will forget those nights I wonder if it was a dream Remember how you made me crazy? Remember how I made you scream Now I don't understand what happened to our love But babe, I'm gonna get you back I'm gonna show you what I'm made of I can see you- Your brown skin shinin' in the sun I see you walking real slow and you're smilin' at everyone I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone Out on the road today, I saw a DEADHEAD sticker on a Cadillac A little voice inside my head said, "Don't look back. You can never look back" I thought I knew what love was What did I know? Those days are gone forever I should just let them go but- I can see you- Your brown skin shinin' in the sun You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone I can see you- Your brown skin shinin' in the sun You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone

Tried at 10:01 am est with AmEx presale for a friend, tried for 2 tix, no go, tried for one, no go....If this tour materializes after MSG, there ought to be a way to protect the fans... Stub hub has plenty of good tickets for sale... Good choice to skip MSG.... Ain't no way I'm stayin' home tonight I'll be out until the mornin' light Just hangin' 'round the local parking lot Checkin' out the girls see what they got Yea they love it when me and the boys Start playin' love with them human toys Yea we just wind 'em up and let 'em go, oh yea Summer nights and my radio That's all we need baby don't cha know We celebrate when the the gang's all here Hot summer nights that's my time of the year We made it through the cold This freezin' snow is gettin' really old Next year I'll head out for the coast Say boys I think that might just call for a toast, yea I got a line, you got a pole I'll meet you down at the ole fishing hole Yea them girls are biting good tonight Oh yea, uh oh, oh yea

Hi All, I've been out of the electronic loop for some time - just moved 1,037 miles and am just now catching my breath. So...are you guys going to try to get tickets to MSG? I'm really not looking forward to the spinning ball again but will do what it takes. Hoping the SD'ers will be reuniting!! Miss you guys, Anita

Welcome back...hoping the move went well. MSG not in the cards for me but if they take it on the road to da Buff I will be there... Chicago will stand as my pinnacle of Dead shows for far many more reasons than the music.... Stay connected!

Coffee is on...my boss. She bought me a cup o joe cause I'm such a great employee. And from Saint Louis Bread Co I get a free cup everyday this month...how cool is that? I love Panera Bread Co!!! Standing at the crossroads, trying to read the signs To tell me which way I should go to find the answer, And all the time I know, Plant your love and let it grow. [Chorus:] Let it grow, let it grow, Let it blossom, let it flow. In the sun, the rain, the snow, Love is lovely, let it grow. Looking for a reason to check out of my mind, Trying hard to get a friend that I can count on, But there's nothing left to show, Plant your love and let it grow. [Chorus] Time is getting shorter and there's much for you to do. Only ask and you will get what you are needing, The rest is up to you. Plant your love and let it grow. [Chorus 2x]

Saw the Ferguson MO nonsense on the news, hope it hasn't affected you n Matt much....said they stormed the courthouse yesterday.... Why can't people just get along.... Speaking of planting things.... Homegrown's all right with me. Homegrown is the way it should be. Homegrown is a good thing. Plant that bell and let it ring. The sun comes up in the morning, Shines that light around. One day, without no warning, Things start jumping up from the ground. Well, homegrown's all right with me. Homegrown is the way it should be. Homegrown is a good thing. Plant that bell and let it ring.

Unfortunately, during peaceful protests, bad actors come out with their own agendas. Happens everywhere. Matt and I went to the first peaceful protests last year before the fires so we could document the ordeal. I drove through crowds of people while filming and Matt took photos. We were not the least bit afraid. Parents and Children took part in the peaceful protests. There can never be enough good protesters when there are a few bad ones (and anarchists) But the area gets taken over at night by those who crawl the streets on a regular basis. The city itself is plagued by gun violence. I used to work in ortho trauma and saw all the gunshot victims that survived being shot. Why can't we all just get along indeed. Until the philosophy which hold one race superior And another Inferior Is finally And permanently Discredited And abandoned - Everywhere is war - Me say war. That until there no longer First class and second class citizens of any nation Until the colour of a man's skin Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes - Me say war. That until the basic human rights Are equally guaranteed to all, Without regard to race - Dis a war. That until that day The dream of lasting peace, World citizenship Rule of international morality Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued, But never attained - Now everywhere is war - war. And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes that hold our brothers in Angola, In Mozambique, South Africa Sub-human bondage Have been toppled, Utterly destroyed - Well, everywhere is war - Me say war. War in the east, War in the west, War up north, War down south - War - war - Rumours of war. And until that day, The African continent Will not know peace, We Africans will fight - we find it necessary - And we know we shall win As we are confident In the victory Of good over evil - Good over evil, yeah! Good over evil - Good over evil, yeah! Good over evil - Good over evil, yeah!

Life is way too short for all of this senseless crap.... Problem as I see it is that people, a goodly subset of them at least are "stupid", they don't learn from the past or their own mistakes...while its job security for my profession it's a shame to see.... Sing it Bruuuuuuuuuuce!!!!! War What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Say it again, war What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, come on War is something that I despise For it means destruction of innocent lives And thousands words in mothers' cry When their son's go out to fight to give their lives War What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Say it again, war What is it good for? Absolutely nothing War It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker War Friend only to the undertaker War is the enemy of all mankind The thought of war it just blows my mind Handed down from generation to generation Induction, destruction, who wants to die? War What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Say it again, war What is it good for? Absolutely nothing War It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker War Friend only to an undertaker War has shattered many young men's dreams Made them disabled bitter and mean Life is too precious to be fighting wars each day War can't give life it can only take it away War What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Say it again, war What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Peace, love and understanding it all There must be some place for these things today They say we must fight to keep our freedom But Lord there's gotta be another way that's better than War What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Say it again, war What is it good for? Absolutely nothing, come on now War What is it good for? Absolutely nothing Say it again, war What is it good for? Nothing I'm talkin' about war

Well there is certainly no shortage of stupid people! Learning from your mistakes takes wisdom and insight, which sadly most are lacking. Keeping with the theme: Generals gathered in their masses, just like witches at black masses. Evil minds that plot destruction, sorcerer of death's construction. In the fields the bodies burning, as the war machine keeps turning. Death and hatred to mankind, poisoning their brainwashed minds...Oh lord yeah! Politicians hide themselves away They only started the war Why should they go out to fight? They leave that role to the poor Time will tell on their power minds Making war just for fun Treating people just like pawns in chess Wait `till their judgement day comes, yeah! Now in darkness, world stops turning, ashes where the bodies burning. No more war pigs have the power, hand of god has struck the hour. Day of judgement, god is calling, on their knees the war pigs crawling. Begging mercy for their sins, Satan, laughing, spreads his wings...Oh lord, yeah!

How about this Wrighteous tune.... Us and Them And after all we're only ordinary men Me, and you God only knows it's not what we would choose to do Forward he cried from the rear and the front rank died And the General sat, as the lines on the map moved from side to side Black and Blue And who knows which is which and who is who Up and Down And in the end it's only round and round and round Haven't you heard it's a battle of words the poster bearer cried Listen son, said the man with the gun There's room for you inside "Well I mean, they're gonna kill ya, so like, if you give 'em a quick sh...short, sharp shock, they don't do it again. Dig it? I mean he got off light, 'cause I coulda given 'I'm a thrashin' but I only hit him once. It's only the difference between right and wrong innit? I mean good manners don't cost nothing do they, eh?" Down and Out It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about With, without And who'll deny that's what the fightings all about Get out of the way, it's a busy day And I've got things on my mind For want of the price of tea and a slice The old man died

take all your overgrown infants away somewhere and build them a home a little place of their own the fletcher memorial home for incurable tyrants and kings and they can appear to themselves every day on closed circuit t.v. to make sure they're still real it's the only connection they feel "ladies and gentlemen, please welcome reagan and haig mr. begin and friend mrs. thatcher and paisley mr. brezhnev and party the ghost of mccarthy the memories of nixon and now adding colour a group of anonymous latin american meat packing glitterati" did they expect us to treat them with any respect they can polish their medals and sharpen their smiles, and amuse themselves playing games for a while boom boom, bang bang, lie down you're dead safe in the permanent gaze of a cold glass eye with their favourite toys they'll be good girls and boys in the fletcher memorial home for colonial wasters of life and limb is everyone in? are you having a nice time? now the final solution can be applied

Our regularly scheduled programming but I just heard this great old song..... redone by the late Steve Marriott of Humble Pie fame..... The um um um um um song....... It needs to be heard....reading the lyrics does not do it justice.... Walking through the park It wasn't quite dark There was a man Sitting on a bench Out of the crowd As his head lowly bowed He just moaned and He made no sense He'd just go Um, um, um, um, um... I just couldn't help myself Yes, I was born With a curious mind I asked this man Just what did he mean When he moaned If he'd be so kind And he'd just go Um, um, um, um, um... Now that I've grown up And the woman I love She has gone Now that I'm a man I think I understand Sometimes everyone Must sing this song Listen to me sing Um, um, um, um, um... Can't you hear me, now Um, um, um, um, um... Everybody now Um, um, um, um, um...

Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin' You gotta have somethin' If you wanna be with me Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin' You gotta have somethin' If you wanna be with me I'm not tryin' to be your hero 'Cause that zero is too cold for me, brrr I'm not tryin' to be your highness 'Cause that minus is too low to see, yeah Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin' And I'm not stuffin' Believe you me Don't you remember I told ya I'm a soldier in the war on poverty, yeah Yes, I am [Instrumental Interlude] Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin' You gotta have somethin' If you wanna be with me Nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin' You gotta have somethin' If you wanna be with me You gotta have somethin' If you wanna be with me You gotta bring me somethin' girl If you wanna be with me

Well, while were at it...I'm crying Picture yourself in a boat on a river With tangerine trees and marmalade skies Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly A girl with kaleidoscope eyes Cellophane flowers of yellow and green Towering over your head Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes And she's gone Lucy in the sky with diamonds Lucy in the sky with diamonds Lucy in the sky with diamonds Aaaaahhhhh... Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers That grow so incredibly high Newspaper taxis appear on the shore Waiting to take you away Climb in the back with your head in the clouds And you're gone Lucy in the sky with diamonds Lucy in the sky with diamonds Lucy in the sky with diamonds Aaaaahhhhh... Picture yourself on a train in a station With Plasticine porters with looking-glass ties Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile The girl with kaleidoscope eyes Lucy in the sky with diamonds Lucy in the sky with diamonds Lucy in the sky with diamonds Aaaaahhhhh... Lucy in the sky with diamonds Lucy in the sky with diamonds Lucy in the sky with diamonds Aaaaahhhhh... Lucy in the sky with diamonds Lucy in the sky with diamonds Lucy in the sky with diamonds [fade out]

In this life I've seen everything I can see womanI've seen lovers flying through the air Hand in hand I've seen babies dancing in the midnight sun And I've seen kings and queens from the heavenly skies above I've seen old men crying at their own grave sides And I've seen pigs all sitting watching Picture slides But I never seen nothin' like you. [Chorus] Do ya want my love Do ya want my face Do ya want my mind Do ya want my love Well I heard the crowd singin' out of tune As they sat and sang auld lang syne by the light Of the moon I heard the preacher bangin' on the drums And I heard the police playin' with their guns But I never heard nothing like you In the country where the sky touches down On the field she lay her down to rest In the morning sun They come a runnin' just to get a look just to Feel to touch her long black hair they don't Give a damn [Chorus] Well I think you know what I'm trying to say Woman That is I'd like to save you for a rainy day I've seen enough of the world to know That i've got to get it all to get it all to grow

By the light of the silvery moon I want to spoon To my honey, I'll croon love's tune Honey moon, keep a-shinin' in June Your silvery beams will bring love's dreams We'll be cuddlin' soon By the silvery moon Place, park, scene, dark Silvery moon is shining through the trees Cast, two, me, you Summer kisses floating on the breeze Act one, be done Dialog, where would ya like to spoon? My cue, with you Underneath the silvery moon By the light of the silvery moon I wanna spoon To my honey, I'll croon love's tune Honey moon, keep a-shinin' in June Your silvery beams will bring love's dreams We'll be cuddlin' soon By the silvery moon Act two, Scene new Roses blooming all around the place Cast three, You me Preacher with a solemn-looking face Choir sings, bell rings Preacher, you are wed forever more Act two, all though Every night the same encore By the light, not the dark but the light Of the silvery moon, not the sun but the moon I wanna spoon, not croon, but spoon To my honey, I'll croon love's tune Honeymoon, honeymoon, honeymoon Keep a-shinin' in June Your silvery beams will bring love's dreams We'll be cuddlin' soon By the silvery moon The silvery moon

Moon over miami,Shine on my love and me, So we can stroll beside the roll, Of the rolling sea. Moon over miami, Shine on as we begin, A dream or two that may come true, When the tide comes in. Hark to the song of the smiling troubadours, Hark to the throbbing guitars, Hear how the waves offer thunderous applause, After each song to the stars. Moon over miami, You know we're waiting for, A little love, A little kiss On miami shore.

hehehe One two three four Never been anywhere, south of the Delaware Never been through Kalamazoo Never been to Timbuktu Livin' is fantasy, travelin' mentally Makin' up tunes in hotel rooms 'Bout places I've never been to Though I've never crooned under a Kentucky moon I had my dream, Kentucky moon But it's all imagery From songs, films and TV But I can visualize, what I've never seen? But I had my dream, Kentucky moon Route sixty six to me is still a mystery And Ohio, too Went Chicago blue down to St. Louis blues Never been anywhere, south of the Delaware Never been through Kalamazoo Never been to Timbuktu But I can visualize, what I've never seen? So I sit and dream, Kentucky moon As I sit by a stream in the moon But it's just imagery From songs, films and TV But I can visualize, what I've never seen? So I sit and dream, Kentucky moon

Come a little bit closerHear what I have to say Just like children sleepin' We could dream this night away. But there's a full moon risin' Let's go dancin' in the light We know where the music's playin' Let's go out and feel the night. Because I'm still in love with you I want to see you dance again Because I'm still in love with you On this harvest moon. When we were strangers I watched you from afar When we were lovers I loved you with all my heart. But now it's gettin' late And the moon is climbin' high I want to celebrate See it shinin' in your eye. Because I'm still in love with you I want to see you dance again Because I'm still in love with you On this harvest moon.

Remember the old days when I met you. I never thought I would get you. Remember the good times we shared together, and now they're just a song. Remember the first time that I saw you. Remember the first time that I taught you. Remember the old friends we knew together, and how they've all gone on. Well we danced by the light of the moon. The band kept on playing that tune. You asked me to carry you home, we were alone. And then I saw moonlight dance in your hair. Now I'll never, never, never see it again. No I'll never, ever, ever have it again. It's gone, just like the song that lives on. Doesn't it seem like the right time. I wanna go way back through my lifetime. Gotta go way back and re-live those days, when everything was mine. Doesn't it seem like a long ways. Back through the fog and the byways. Doesn't it seem strange it took so long, but I saw it all today. The moon through the trees did go down. The snowflakes had covered the ground. Morning left moonlight behind; day was unkind. But then I saw lovelight dance in your hair. Ah I'll never, never, never see it again. I'll never, ever, ever have it again. Oh no, just the snow and I know.

.....HERE I IS,,,,,,,!!!! Tomorrow.....God willin and the creek don't rise...... When the dream came I held my breath with my eyes closed I went insane, Like a smoke ring day When the wind blows Now I won't be back till later on If I do come back at all But you know me, and I miss you now. In a strange game I saw myself as you knew me When the change came, And you had a Chance to see through me Though the other side is just the same You can tell my dream is real Because I love you, can you see me now. Though we rush ahead to save our time We are only what we feel And I love you, can you feel it now.

The sun will come out tomorrow... All my little plans and schemes Lost like some forgotten dream Seems like all I really was doing Was waiting for you Just like little girls and boys Playing with their little toys Seems like all they really were doing Was waiting for you Don't need to be alone No need to be alone It's real love It's real, yes it's real love It's real From this moment on I know Exactly where my life will go Seems that all I really was doing Was waiting for love Don't need to be afraid No need to be afraid It's real love It's real, yes it's real love It's real Thought I'd been in love before, But in my heart I wanted more Seems like all I really was doing Was waiting for you Don't need to be alone No need to be alone It's real love Yes it's real, yes it's real love It's real, yes it's real love...

Do you feel like we do? Oh, that's true. Do you feel like we do? Get back. Do you feel..do you feel like we do? Oh baby do you feel? Oh baby do you feel, feel like we do?

Seems I got to have a change of sceneCause every night I have the strangest dreams Imprisoned by the way it used to be Left here on my own or so it seems I got to leave before I start to scream But someone's locked the door and took the key Feelin' alright Not feelin' too good myself Feelin' alright Not feelin' too good myself Boy you sure took me for one big ride Even now I sit and wonder why And when I think of you I start to cry Got to stop belivin' in all your lies Cause I got to much to do before I die Before someone comes along and takes my place With a different name and yes a different face

Slow down, you move too fast. You got to make the morning last. Just kicking down the cobble stones. Looking for fun and feelin' groovy. Hello lamppost, What cha knowing? I've come to watch your flowers growing. Ain't cha got no rhymes for me? Doot-in' doo-doo, Feelin' groovy. Got no deeds to do, No promises to keep. I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep. Let the morning time drop all its petals on me. Life, I love you, All is groovy.

Once upon a time you dressed so fineThrew the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you? People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall' You thought they were all kidding you You used to laugh about Everybody that was hanging out Now you don't talk so loud Now you don't seem so proud About having to be scrounging your next meal How does it feel, how does it feel? To be without a home Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone Ahh you've gone to the finest schools, alright Miss Lonely But you know you only used to get juiced in it Nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street And now you're gonna have to get used to it You say you never compromise With the mystery tramp, but now you realize He's not selling any alibis As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes And say do you want to make a deal? How does it feel, how does it feel? To be on your own, with no direction home A complete unknown, like a rolling stone Ah you never turned around to see the frowns On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you You never understood that it ain't no good You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you You used to be so amused At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose You're invisible now, you've got no secrets to conceal How does it feel, how does it feel? To have on your own, with no direction home Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone Ahh princess on a steeple and all the pretty people They're all drinking, thinking that they've got it made Exchanging all precious gifts But you better take your diamond ring, you better pawn it babe You used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat Ain't it hard when you discovered that He really wasn't where it's at After he took from you everything he could steal How does it feel, ah how does it feel? To be on your own, with no direction home Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone

She was a be-bop baby on a hard day's nightShe was hangin' on Johnny, he was holdin' on tight I could feel her coming from a mile away There was no use talking, there was nothing to say When the band began to play and play And we danced like a wave on the ocean, romanced We were liars in love and we danced Swept away for a moment by chance And we danced, danced, danced I met my be-bop baby at the Union Hall She could dance all night and shake the paint off the walls But when I saw her smile across a crowded room, yeah Well I knew we'd have to leave the party soon As the band began to play out of tune And we danced like a wave on the ocean, romanced We were liars in love and we danced Swept away for a moment by chance And we danced, danced, danced, yeah and we danced The endless beat, she's walkin' my way Hear the music fade when she says Are we getting too close, do we care to get closer The room is spinning as she whispers my name And we danced like a wave on the ocean, romanced We were liars in love and we danced Swept away for a moment by chance And we danced, danced And we danced like a wave on the ocean, romanced We were liars in love and we danced Swept away for a moment by chance And we danced, danced, danced And we danced and we danced And we danced, oh baby And we danced, danced, danced Oh and we danced

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life See that girl, watch that scene, digging the Dancing Queen Friday night and the lights are low Looking out for the place to go Where they play the right music, getting in the swing You come in to look for a king Anybody could be that guy Night is young and the music's high With a bit of rock music, everything is fine You're in the mood for a dance And when you get the chance... You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life See that girl, watch that scene, digging the Dancing Queen You're a teaser, you turn 'em on Leave them burning and then you're gone Looking out for another, anyone will do You're in the mood for a dance And when you get the chance... You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life See that girl, watch that scene, digging the Dancing Queen [fade]

Looking back on the memory of The dance we shared 'neath the stars above For a moment all the world was right How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye And now I'm glad I didn't know The way it all would end the way it all would go Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain But I'd have had to miss the dance Holding you I held everything For a moment wasn't I a king But if I'd only known how the king would fall Hey who's to say you know I might have changed it all And now I'm glad I didn't know The way it all would end the way it all would go Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain But I'd have had to miss the dance Yes my life is better left to chance I could have missed the pain but I'd have had to miss the dance

Ooooh the water, I hope it don't rain on me.... Well it was out in California by the San Diego sea That was when I was taken in and it left its mark on me Yeah she nearly drove me crazy with all those China toys And I know she really didn't mean a thing to any of those sailor boys Louisiana rain is falling at my feet Baby I'm noticing the change as I move down the street Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge South Carolina put out its arms for me Right up until everything went black somewhere on Lonely Street And I still can't quite remember who helped me to my feet Thank God for a love that followed the angel's remedy Louisiana rain is falling just like tears Running down my face, washing out the years Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge Well I never will get over this English refugee Singing to the jukebox in some all-night beanery Yeah he was eating pills like candy and chasing them with tea You should have seen him lick his lips, that old black muddied beak Louisiana rain is falling at my feet Baby I'm noticing the change as I move down the street Louisian rain is soaking through my shoes I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge Louisiana rain is falling just like tears Running down my face, washing out the years Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes I may never be the same when I reach Baton Rouge

they only serve to lengthen the work week, no other purpose that I can see.. The song came and went Like the times that we spent Hiding out from the rain under the carnival tent I laughed and she'd smile It would last for awhile You don't know what you got till you lose it all again Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go A cool evening dance Listening to the bluegrass band takes the chill From the air till they play the last song I'll do my time Keeping you off my mind but there's moments That I find, I'm not feeling so strong Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go Running down by the lake shore She did love the sound of a summer storm It played on the lake like a mandolin Now it's washing her away once again Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go The boat's steaming in I watch the side wheel spin and I Think about her when I hear that whistle blow I can't change my mind I knew all the time that she'd go But that's a choice I made long ago Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Listen to my heart break every time she runs away Listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go

The rain is falling through the mist of sorrow that surrounded meThe sun could never thaw away the bliss that lays around me Let it rain, let it rain, Let your love rain down on me Let it rain, let it rain, Let it rain, rain, rain Her life was like a desert flower burning in the sun Until I found the way to love, it's harder said than done Let it rain, let it rain, Let your love rain down on me Let it rain, let it rain, Let it rain, rain, rain Now I know the secret; there is nothing that I lack If I give my love to you, you'll surely give it back Let it rain, let it rain, Let your love rain down on me Let it rain, let it rain, Let it rain, rain, rain Let it rain, let it rain, Let your love rain down on me Let it rain, let it rain, Let it rain, rain, rain

Grab your sombrero chica...... I feel a hot wind on my shoulder And the touch of a world that is older I turn the switch and check the number I leave it on when in bed I slumber I hear the rhythms of the music I buy the product and never use it I hear the talking of the dj Can't understand just what does he say?

South of the border, down Mexico wayThat's where I fell in love when the stars above came out to play And now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray South of the border, down Mexico way She was a vision in old Spanish lace Just for a tender while, I kissed the smile upon her face For it was fiesta and we were so gay South of the border, down Mexico way Then she smiled as she whispered manana Never dreaming that we were parting And I lied as I whispered manana For our tomorrow never came South of the border, I rode back one day There in a veil of white, by candle light, she knelt to pray But the mission bells told me, that I mustn't stay South of the border, down Mexico way Ay ay ay ay, ay ay ay ay Ay ay ay ay, ay ay ay, ay
