    Summer is still trying to hold on in STL. But you can feel that fall air creeping in and taking over. Do you remember the 21st night of September? Love was changing the minds of pretenders While chasing the clouds away Our hearts were ringing In the key that our souls were singing. As we danced in the night, Remember how the stars stole the night away Ba de ya - say do you remember Ba de ya - dancing in September Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day Ba duda, ba duda, ba duda, badu Ba duda, badu, ba duda, badu Ba duda, badu, ba duda My thoughts are with you Holding hands with your heart to see you Only blue talk and love, Remember how we knew love was here to stay Now December found the love we shared in September. Only blue talk and love, Remember the true love we share today Ba de ya - say do you remember Ba de ya - dancing in September Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day There was a Ba de ya - say do you remember Ba de ya - dancing in September Ba de ya - golden dreams were shiny days The bell was ringing, aha Our souls were singing Do you remember Never a cloudy day There was a Ba de ya - say do you remember Ba de ya - dancing in September Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day There was a Ba de ya - say do you remember Ba de ya - dancing in September Ba de ya - golden dreams were shiny days Ba de ya de ya de ya Ba de ya de ya de ya ba de ya de ya de ya De ya Ba de ya de ya de ya Ba de ya de ya de ya ba de ya de ya de hope the mountains have treated you well!

    Seen a man standin' over a dead dog lyin' by the highway in a ditch He's lookin' down kinda puzzled pokin' that dog with a stick Got his car door flung open he's standin' out on highway 31 Like if he stood there long enough that dog'd get up and run Struck me kinda funny seem kinda funny sir to me Still at the end of every hard day people find some reason to believe Now Mary Lou loved Johnny with a love mean and true She said baby I'll work for you everyday and bring my money home to you One day he up and left her and ever since that She waits down at the end of that dirt road for young Johnny to come back Struck me kinda funny funny yea indeed how at the end of every hard earned day you can find some reason to believe Take a baby to the river Kyle William they called him Wash the baby in the water take away little Kyle's sin In a whitewash shotgun shack an old man passes away take the body to the graveyard and over him they pray Lord won't you tell us, Tell us what does it mean At the end of every hard earned day people find some reason to believe Congregation gathers down by the riverside Preacher stands with his bible, groom stands waitin' for his bride Congregation gone and the sun sets behind a weepin' willow tree Groom stands alone and watches the river rush on so effortlessly Wonderin' where can his baby be still at the end of every hard earned day people find some reason to believe

    @ Finally Friday
    Let's bring this one to a close... My DJ's got the cuts and the beats are on We're comin with the limericks and we're comin' strong And the rhythm's on time to every word and rhyme When it comes to keep it real I keep it really wrong At the risk of sounding crass I would like to mention That I am well aware of your wack intentions To usurp my prose you so and so It's my primary bone of contention I tell you everybody I've had it With all these people with static I'll go insane if it don't rain Sucker MC's are problematic I love it when you hit those switches A curve ball's what my pitch is So here we here we come Like dum ditty dum I keep all five boroughs in stitches The sound sounds sweeter through the echolex It'll spin you around and throw you in a hex Until you feel no pain inside your brain All your worries are soothed by the sound effects You ead it in the Post and the Daily News Listen everybody lets show improve Don't let me begin about heroin Living six feet deep just ain't the move We're giving you soul power I like it sweet and sour When it comes to rhymes and beat designs I'm at the control tower Tell me what makes you so afraid Of all those people you say you hate Just give it one time for your mind And let's try to negotiate [3x]

    Not a huge fan, but saw him live....he put the Dick in Dixie and the Cunt in Country...not my cup of tea, but an amusing YouTube video nonetheless.....if only for its sophomoric humor....I prefer the original Hank Williams..... Now for some Kinks..... He don't need no sedatives to ease his troubled mind. At work he is invariably unpleasant and unkind. Why should he care if he is hated in his home, 'Cause he's gotta house in the country, And a big sports car. He's gotta house in the country, And a big sports car. But he ain't gotta home, oh no, And he's as wicked as he can be, 'Cause he's gotta house in the country Where he likes to spend his weekend days. Oh yeah, oh yeah, well all right Well, he got his job when drunken Daddy tumbled down the stairs. From that very day this boy is more than having his share. One of these days I'm gonna knock him off of his throne, 'Cause he's gotta house in the country, And a big sports car. He's gotta house in the country, And a big sports car. And he's oh so smug, oh yeah. He's got everything he needs, 'Cause he's gotta house in the country Where he likes to spend his weekend days. Oh yeah, oh yeah, well all right And he's oh so smug, oh yeah. He's got everything he needs, 'Cause he's gotta house in the country, And a big sports car. He's gotta house in the country, And a big sports car. But he's socially dead, oh yeah, And it don't matter much to him, 'Cause he's gotta house in the country Where he likes to spend his weekend days. Oh yeah, oh yeah, well all right House in the country House in the country House in the country House in the country

    @ Gonna leave this city
    don't like to go down to flats'Cause I can't park on a hill Instead getting a rolling start I have to pay the bill. I guess I need that city life It sure has lots of style But pretty soon it wears me out And I have to think to smile. I'm thankful for my country home It gives me peace of mind Somewhere I can walk alone And leave myself behind. It's only someone else's potatoes You pickin' someone else's patch And if you go down there anyway It very seldom lasts. I found that out once long ago And it sure got me confused I still don't know which way to go To lose those old spud blues. I'm thankful for my country home It gives me peace of mind Somewhere I can walk alone And leave myself behind.

    I'm going up the country, babe, don't you wanna go?I'm going up the country, babe, don't you wanna go? I'm going to some place where I've never been before. I'm going, I'm going where the water tastes like wine. Well, I'm going where the water tastes like wine. We can jump in the water, stay drunk all the time. I'm gonna leave this city, got to get away. I'm gonna leave this city, got to get away. All this fussing and fighting, man, you know I sure can't stay. Now baby, pack your leaving trunk, you know we've got to leave today, Just exactly where we're going I cannot say, but We might even leave the USA, 'Cause there's a brand new game that I want to play. No use of you running, or screaming and crying, 'Cause you've got a home as long as I've got mine.

    baby don't you want to go, if you can't make it babe, I'm sure Ozark would want to go...... Shoot high, aim low....Buy low, sell high.... It's high time for a walk on the real side Let's admit the bastards beat us I move to dissolve the corporation In a pool of margaritas So let's switch off all the lights And light up all the Luckies Crankin' up the afterglow 'Cause we're goin' out of business Everything must go Talk about your major pain and suffering Now our self-esteem is shattered Show the world our mighty hidey-ho face As we go sliding down the ladder It was sweet up at the top 'Til that ill wind started blowing Now it's cozy down below 'Cause we're goin' out of business Everything must go We gave it our best shot But keep in mind we got a lot The sky the moon good food and the weather First-run movies - does anybody get lucky twice? Wouldn't it be nice... Tell me can you dig it Miss Fugazy Now it's gone from late to later Frankly I could use a little face time In the service elevator And if Dave from Acquisitions Wants to get in on the action With his Handicam in tow Well we're goin' out of business Everything must go Can it be the sorry sun is rising Guess it's time for us to book it Talk about the famous road not taken In the end we never took it And if somewhere on the way We got a few good licks in No one's ever gonna know 'Cause we're goin' out of business Everything must go

and the music kepps on playin on and on... You came to me just like a song You changed the rhythm of my heart You are the symphony that plays You are the music of my life A haunting theme that never ends You're spinning round inside my brain You're like a magical refrain You are the music of my life I never want your song to end I need your touch to comfort me Just like a thousand violins You are the song my melody I want your tune to linger on A never-ending serenade A chandler rhapsody that plays You are the music of my life I'll never love this way again Don't ever change the song you sing And when you speak the church bells chime A love like yours I'll never find The song will take us high To another place I know our special love Can still survive through time and space And if the song should ever end My heart will never be the same The song will always speak your name You are the music of my life The song will always speak your name You are the music of my life it's about all the music that we share!

I shared the stage with Jerry for 35 years and think about him every time I pick up my guitar. This special coming together is one way to celebrate all that Jerry has given us - to feel alive and good with Jerry's spirit and smile. Happy Birthday Bob.....guess I'm not the only one who misses Jerry..... Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were. Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were. Old man look at my life, Twenty four and there's so much more Live alone in a paradise That makes me think of two. Love lost, such a cost, Give me things that don't get lost. Like a coin that won't get tossed Rolling home to you. Old man take a look at my life I'm a lot like you I need someone to love me the whole day through Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true. Lullabies, look in your eyes, Run around the same old town. Doesn't mean that much to me To mean that much to you. I've been first and last Look at how the time goes past. But I'm all alone at last. Rolling home to you. Old man take a look at my life I'm a lot like you I need someone to love me the whole day through Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true. Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were. Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were.

You make me feel so young You make me feel so spring has sprung And every time I see you grin I'm such a happy individual The moment that you speak I wanna go play hide-and-seek I wanna go and bounce the moon Just like a toy balloon You and I are just like a couple of tots Running across the meadow Picking up lots of forget-me-nots You make me feel so young You make me feel there are songs to be sung Bells to be rung and a wonderful fling to be flung And even when I'm old and gray I'm gonna feel the way I do today 'Cause you make me feel so young You make me feel so young You make me feel so spring has sprung And every time I see you grin I'm such a happy individual The moment that you speak I wanna go play hide-and-seek I wanna go and bounce the moon Just like a toy balloon You and I are just like a couple of tots Running across the meadow Picking up lots of forget-me-nots You make me feel so young You make me feel there are songs to be sung And bells to be rung And a wonderful fling to be flung And even when I'm old and gray I'm gonna feel the way I do today 'Cause you, you make me feel so young You make me feel so young [x2] Ooh, you make me feel so young

My grandfather is not doing very well... Please send him your love and vibes I dont know what else to play so here is a song for him. I was walking home from school, on a cold winter day Took a shortcut through the woods, and I lost my way It was getting late, and I was scared and alone But then a kind old man, took my hand, and led me home Mama couldn't see him, oh but he was standing there And I knew in my heart, he was the answer to my prayers Oh I believe there are, angels among us Sent down to us, from somewhere up above They come to you and me, in our darkest hours To show us how to live, to teach us how to give To guide us with the light of love When life held troubled times, and had me down on my knees There's always been someone, to come along, and comfort me A kind word from a stranger, to lend a helping hand A phone call from a friend, just to say, I understand But ain't it kind of funny, at the dark end of the road That someone lights the way, with just a single ray of hope Oh I believe there are, angels among us Sent down to us, from somewhere up above They come to you and me, in our darkest hours To show us how to live, to teach us how to give To guide us with the light of love They wear so many faces, show up in the strangest places To grace us with their mercy, in our time of need Oh I believe there are, angels among us Sent down to us, from somewhere up above They come to you and me, in our darkest hours To show us how to live, to teach us how to give To guide us with the light of love To guide us with a light of love

Very sorry for the news..... I prefer to view this in a different manner..... Half a mile from the county fair And the rain keep pourin' down Me and Billy standin' there With a silver half a crown Hands are full of a fishin' rod And the tackle on our backs We just stood there gettin' wet With our backs against the fence Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Hope it don't rain all day [Chorus:] And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like Jelly Roll And it stoned me And it stoned me to my soul Stoned me just like goin' home And it stoned me Then the rain let up and the sun came up And we were gettin' dry Almost let a pick-up truck nearly pass us by So we jumped right in and the driver grinned And he dropped us up the road We looked at the swim and we jumped right in Not to mention fishing poles Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Let it run all over me [Chorus] On the way back home we sang a song But our throats were getting dry Then we saw the man from across the road With the sunshine in his eyes Well he lived all alone in his own little home With a great big gallon jar There were bottles too, one for me and you And he said Hey! There you are Oh, the water Oh, the water Oh, the water Get it myself from the mountain stream Be grateful for what you have and have had.....there ain't no going back.....will pray for what is best....

Thanks. gotta go home. I know you, rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone; I know you, rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone; Gonna miss your baby, from rolling in your arms. Laid down last night, Lord, I could not take my rest; Laid down last night, Lord, I could not take my rest; My mind was wandering like the wild geese in the West. The Sun will shine in my back door someday. The Sun will shine in my back door someday. March winds will blow all my troubles away. I wish I was a headlight, on a North bound train; I wish I was a headlight, on a North bound train; I'd shine my light through cool Colorado rain. I know you, rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone; I know you, rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone; Gonna miss your baby, from rolling in your arms. I appreciate you.

Thanks for the well wishes, Gramps is OK for now. Whoa-oh-oh-woah-ahh There she stood in the street smilin' from her head to her feet; I said, "Hey, what is this? Now baby, maybe, maybe she's in need of a kiss." I said, "Hey, what's your name? Maybe we can see things the same." "Now don't you wait, or hesitate Let's move before they raise the parking rate." Ohh All right now, baby, it's a-all right now. All right now, baby, it's a-all right now. (Let me tell you now) I took her home to my place, Watchin' every move on her face; She said, "Look, what's your game, baby? Are you tryna' put me to shame?" I said "Slow, don't go so fast, don't you think that love can last?" She said, "Love, Lord above, now you're tryna' trick me in love." All right now, baby, it's a-all right now. All right now, baby, it's a-all right now. Whoo, oh yeah All right now, baby, it's a-all right now, yeah All right now, baby, it's a-all right now All right now, baby, it's a-a-all right now All right n-now, baby baby baby it's all right All right now, it's all right, it's all right, it's all right All right now, baby, it's a-all right now Yeah, we're so happy together It's all right, it's all right it's all right Everything's all right

There's a time for feelin' as good as we can The time is now and there's no stoppin' us There's a time for livin' as high as we can Behind us you will only see our dust You know we're havin' good days And we hope they're gonna last Our future still looks brighter than our past We feel no need to worry No reason to be sad Our mem'ries remind us Maybe road life's not so bad Just keep smilin', move onward every day And try to keep our thoughts away from home We're trav'lin' around, no time to settle down And satisfy our wanderlust to roam Well from sea to shining sea and a hundred points between Still we go on diggin' ev'ry show The cities in the land all extend a welcome hand Till morning when it's time for us to go

A great technique to master, helps one live in the moment..... Well, you say you've got the blues You've got holes in both your shoes, yeah You're feeling alone and confused You got to keep on smilin', just keep on smilin' Yeah, you're 'bout to go insane 'Cause your woman's playin' games And she says that you're to blame Just keep on smilin' Keep on smilin' through the rain Laughin' at the pain Just flowin' with the changes Till the sun comes out again Singin' in a honkey tonk cafe But nobody's hearin' what you play They're too busy drinkin' anyway You gotta keep on smilin' Say you found a piece of land You're gonna change from city boy To country man, yeah Try to build your life with your hands And just keep on smilin', keep on smilin' Keep on smilin' through the rain Laughin' at the pain Just flowin' with the changes Till the sun comes out again You're just hangin' out at a local bar And you're wonderin', who the hell you are? Are you a farmer? Are you a star? Smile on through the rain Laugh through all the pain Flow on with the changes Till the sun shines out again Keep on smilin', smilin', laughin', laughin' Flowin', flowin', flowin', flowin'

I do try to keep my mind in fullness whenever possible. And I never thought I'd feel this way And as far as I'm concerned I'm glad I got the chance to say That I do believe I love you And if I should ever go away Well then close your eyes and try To feel the way we do today And then if you can remember Keep smiling, keep shining Knowing you can always count on me, for sure That's what friends are for For good times and bad times I'll be on your side forever more That's what friends are for Well you came in loving me And now there's so much more I see And so by the way I thank you Oh and then for the times when we're apart Well then close your eyes and know The words are coming from my heart And then if you can remember

Oh here it comes That funny feelin again winding me up inside Every time we touch Hey I don't know Just tell me where to begin cause I never ever Felt so much [Chorus 1:] No I can't recall any love at all Baby this blows 'em all away [Chorus 2:] It's got what it takes So tell me why can't this be love Straight from my heart oh tell me why Can't this be love I tell myself Hey only fools rush in an only time will tell If we stand the test of time All I know You've got to run to win an I'll be damned if I'll get hung up on the line [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] [Solo] [Chorus 2] Tell me why can't this be love Baby why can't this be love Got to know why can't this be love I wanna know why can't this be love

After seeing your Van Hagar post, my mind goes immediately to this very obscure Lou Reed tune later covered by Peter Gabriel....encourage you to seek it out.... You and me we always sweat and we strain you look for sun and I look for rain we're different people, we're not the same the power of the sun I looked for treetops, you looked for caps above the water, where the waves snap back I flew around the world to bring you back ah the power of the heart you looked at me and I looked at you the sleeping heart was shining through the wispy cobwebs that we're breathing through the power of the heart I looked at you and you looked at me I thought of the past, you thought of what could be I asked you once again to marry me the power of the heart Everybody says love makes the world go round I hear a bubbling and I hear a sound of my heart beating and I turn around and find you standing at the door you know me I like to dream a lot of this and that and what is not and finally I figured out what was what it was the power of the heart You and me we sweat and strain the result is always the same you think somehow we're in a game the power of the heart the power of the heart I think I'm dumb I know you're smart the beating of a purebred heart I say this to you and it's not a lark marry me today You know me I like to dream a lot of what there is and what there's not but mainly I dream of you a lot the power of the heart the power of the heart I miss Lou Reed ..... but I really miss Jerry.....

The power of love is a curious thing make a one man weep, make another man sing Change a hawk to a little white dove more than a feeling that's the power of love Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream Stronger and harder than a bad girl's dream make a bad one good make a wrong one right power of love that keeps you home at night [Chorus 1:] You don't need money, don't take fame Don't need no credit card to ride this train It's strong and it's sudden and it's cruel sometimes but it might just save your life That's the power of love That's the power of love First time you feel it, it might make you sad Next time you feel it it might make you mad But you'll be glad baby when you've found that's the power makes the world go'round [Chorus 2:] And it don't take money, don't take fame don't need no credit card to ride this train It's strong and it's sudden it can be cruel sometimes but it might just save your life They say that all in love is fair yeah, but you don't care But you know what to do when it gets hold of you and with a little help from above you feel the power of love you feel the power of love Can you feel it? Hmmm [Chorus 3:] It don't take money and it don't take fame don't need no credit card to ride this train Tougher than diamonds and stronger than steel you won't feel nothin' till you feel you feel the power, just the power of love That's the power, that's the power of love You feel the power of love you feel the power of love feel the power of love

Just one more mornin'I had to wake up with the blues Pulled myself outta bed, yeah Put on my walkin' shoes, Went up on the mountain, To see what I could see, The whole world was fallin', right down in front of me. 'Cause I'm hung up on dreams I'll never see, yeah Baby. Ahh help me baby, or this will surely be the end of me, yeah. Pull myself together, put on a new face, Climb down off the hilltop, baby, Get back in the race.

Spare a little candle Save some light for me figures up ahead Moving in the trees White skin in linen Perfume on my wrist And the full moon that hangs over these dreams in the mist Darkness on the edge Shadows where I stand I search for the time On a watch with no hands I want to see you clearly Come closer than this But all I remember Are the dreams in the mist These dreams go on when I close my eyes Every second of the night I live another life These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away Is it cloak 'n dagger Could it be spring or fall I walk without a cut Through a stained glass wall Weaker in my eyesight The candle in my grip And words that have no form Are falling from my lips These dreams go on when I close my eyes Every second of the night I live another life These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away There's something out there I can't resist I need to hide away from the pain There's something out there I can't resist The sweetest song is silence That I've ever heard Funny how your feet In dreams never touch the earth In a wood full of princes Freedom is a kiss But the prince hides his face From dreams in the mist These dreams go on when I close my eyes Every second of the night I live another life These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away These dreams go on when I close my eyes Every second of the night I live another life These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

Now here you go againYou say you want your freedom Well, who am I to keep you down? It's only right that you should Play the way you feel it But listen carefully to the sound Of your loneliness Like a heartbeat.. drives you mad In the stillness of remembering what you had And what you lost... And what you had... And what you lost [Chorus:] Thunder only happens when it's raining Players only love you when they're playing Say... Women... they will come and they will go When the rain washes you clean... you'll know, you'll know Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions I keep my visions to myself It's only me Who wants to wrap around your dreams and... Have you any dreams you'd like to sell? Dreams of loneliness... Like a heartbeat... drives you mad... In the stillness of remembering what you had... And what you lost... And what you had... And what you lost [Chorus 2x]

hahahaha, I think you could find a way to market that...Cerebral Massage! Sunlight bright upon my pillow Lighter than an eiderdown Will she let the weeping willow Wind his branches round Julia dream, dreamboat queen, queen of all my dreams Every night I turn the light out Waiting for the velvet bride Will the scaly armadillo Find me where I'm hiding Julia dream, dreamboat queen, queen of all my dreams Will the misty master break me Will the key unlock my mind Will the following footsteps catch me Am I really dying Julia dream, dreamboat queen, queen of all my dreams

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman Tiptoes to my room every night Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper "Go to sleep. Everything is all right." I close my eyes, then I drift away Into the magic night. I softly say A silent prayer like dreamers do Then I fall asleep to dream, my dreams of you In dreams I walk with you, in dreams I talk to you In dreams you're mine, all of the time We're together in dreams, in dreams But just before the dawn, I awake and find you gone I can't help it, I can't help it, if I cry I remember that you said goodbye It's too bad that all these things Can only happen in my dreams Only in dreams, in beautiful dreams bonne nuit, mon'amie

Here comes the woman With the look in her eye Raised on leather With flesh on her mind Words as weapons sharper than knives Makes you wonder how the other half die Other half die Here come the man With the look in his eye Fed on nothing But full of pride Look at them go Look at them kick Makes you wonder how the other half live The devil inside The devil inside Every single one of us the devil inside The devil inside The devil inside Every single one of us the devil inside Here come the world With the look in its eye Future uncertain but certainly slight Look at the faces Listen to the bells It's hard to believe we need a place called hell

...but I have a feeling I know where this is headed.... nice avatar, very festive Come on down from the top of the mountain, flowing Doin' the slow slide into town, keep on going Darkness dancers get down, heavily hoping Stroking the stone soul, loving, drinking and doping Like a blind moth looking for color in the lights Dance in the spotlight, I feel alright Just my devil, my devil delight I've seen those midnight ladies just for the moment's using She keep on playing, never know whether she's losing it He got those sexy green eyes, clicking the trigger, no warning It's all gonna come rolling back in the morning You might feel me burning all night Like a dirty demon daughter, don't put up no fight I dance in the spotlight, I'm alright It's just my devil, my devil delight Lover and fool, glass and jewel, the potion Comedy, tragedy, making the game, emotion On your toes, do the gambling roll for your fortune We fall for love from up above to the ocean

In the distance, she saw me comin' roundI was callin' out, I was callin' out. Still shakin', still in pain You put me back together again. I was cold and you clothed me, honey I was down, and you lifted me, honey. Angel, angel or devil? I was thirsty And you wet my lips. You, I'm waiting for you You, you set my desire I trip through your wires. I was broken, bent out of shape I was naked in the clothes you made. Lips were dry, throat like rust You gave me shelter from the heat and the dust. No more water in the well No more water, water. Angel, angel or devil? I was thirsty And you wet my lips. You, I'm waiting for you You, you set my desire I trip through your wires. Oh I need, oh I need Oh I need, oh I need it. Oh I need, oh I need All I need, yeah, yeah! Thunder, thunder on the mountain There's a raincloud In the desert sky. In the distance She saw me comin' round I was callin' out I was callin' out.

I've had nothing but bad luck Since the day I saw the cat at my door So I came into you sweet lady Answering your mystical call Crystal ball on the table Showing the future, the past Same cat with them evil eyes And I knew it was a spell she cast She's just a devil woman With evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you... She's just a devil woman With evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you from behind... Give me the ring on your finger Let me see the lines on your hand I can see me a tall dark stranger Giving you what you hadn't planned I drank the potion she offered me I found myself on the floor Then I looked in those big green eyes And I wondered what I came there for... She's just a devil woman With evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you... She's just a devil woman With evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you from behind... If you're out on a moonlit night Be careful of them neighbourhood strays Of a lady with long black hair Tryin' to win you with her feminine ways Crystal ball on the table Showing the future, the past Same cat with them evil eyes You'd better get out of there fast... She's just a devil woman With evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you... She's just a devil woman With evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you... She's just a devil woman With evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you... She's just a devil woman With evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you... She's just a devil woman With evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you... She's just a devil woman With evil on her mind Beware the devil woman She's gonna get you...

pun intended..... before the Dead, Wake of the Flood being the first LP of theirs I heard, I was hooked.....but I digress.... before the Dead there was Deep Purple and Sabbath.....how I went from point A to Jerry so quickly, I have no idea....but to this day, this is the title track to one of my favorite albums..... 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!"

There's a place just south of Witches' Valley Where they say the wind won't blow And they only speak in whispers of her name There's a lady they say who feeds the darkness It eats right from her hand With a crying shout she'll search you out And freeze you where you stand Lady Evil, evil She's a magical, mystical woman Lady Evil, evil in my mind She's queen of the night All right! In a place just south of Witches' Valley Where they say the rain won't fall Thunder cracks the sky, it makes you bleed, yeah There's a lady they say who needs the darkness She can't face the light With an awful shout, she'll find you out And have you for the night Lady Evil, evil She's a magical, mystical woman Lady Evil, evil on my mind She's queen of the night So if you ever get to Witches' Valley Don't dream or close your eyes And never trust your shadow in the dark 'Cause there's a lady I know who takes your vision And turns it all around The things you see are what to be, lost and never found Lady Evil, evil She's a magical, mystical woman Lady Evil, evil on my mind She's queen of the night She's the queen of sin Look out, she'll pull you in! Lady wonder!

I've been stuck in the dark Stumbling around reaching out for my heart Wondering just how I allowed you to turn the light out inside of me You've got tricks up your sleeve And got the power to keep me intrigued Well I guess I should have known I guess I should have seen That you would pull the love right from underneath Under your love spell I'm just trying to forget you But nobody compares nobody even close baby You got that logic I need and it's holding me hostage And now I've just become prisoner to your love baby Well I'm trying to let go But I don't know how Won't you set me free give me the remedy For this love spell Love spell Should have heard what they said When they told me I end up caught in your web I thought that I was strong Don't know what went wrong But now I'm frozen in your captivity Under your love spell I'm just trying to forget you But nobody compares nobody even close baby You got that logic I need and it's holding me hostage And now I've just become prisoner to your love baby Well I'm trying to let go But I don't know how Won't set me free I need a remedy From this love spell that you cast over me I can't speak I can't see I've been poisoned with romance And it's cruel cause you know what your doing When you cast this illusion, that I stand a chance But I'm just standing... Under your love spell I'm just trying to forget you But nobody compares nobody even close You got that logic I need And I can't let go Won't you set me free I need a remedy For this love spell Love spell Love spell Please set me free

So many versions of this song but my favorite version is over the top......Vanilla Fudge..... This orchestration must have inspired Meatloaf......I love Meatloaf...... Set me free, why don't cha, babe Get out my life, why don't cha, babe 'Cause you don't really love me You just keep me hangin' on You don't really need me But you keep me hangin' on Why do you keep on coming around Playing with my heart? Why don't you get out of my life And let me make a new start? Let me get over you The way you've gotten over me Hey, set me free, why don't cha, babe Let me be, why don't cha, babe 'Cause you don't really love me You just keep me hangin' on Now you don't really want me You just keep me hangin' on You say although we broke up You still wanna be just friends But how can we still be friends When seeing you only breaks my heart again And there ain't nothing I can do about it Whoa oh oh, set me free, why don't cha, babe Whoa oh oh, get out my life, why don't cha, babe Set me free, why don't cha, babe Get out my life, why don't cha, babe You claim you still care for me But your heart and soul needs to be free And now that you've got your freedom You wanna still hold on to me You don't want me for yourself So let me find somebody else, hey hey Why don't you be a man about it And set me free? Now you don't care a thing about me You're just using me Go on, get out, get out of my life And let me sleep at night, please 'Cause you don't really love me You just keep me hangin' on good night......BOO!

The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling, way down in the valley tonight. There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye, and a blade shining oh so bright. There's evil in the air and there's thunder in sky, and A killer's on the bloodshot streets. Oh and down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising, Oh I swear I saw a young boy down in the gutter, He was starting to foam in the heat. Oh baby you're the only thing in this whole world, that's pure and good and right. And wherever you are and wherever you go, there's always gonna be some light. But I gotta get out, I gotta break it out now, Before the final crack of dawn. So we gotta make the most of our one night together. When it's over you know, We'll both be so alone. Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes. When the night is over Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone. Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes. But when the day is done and the sun goes down, and the moonlights shining through, Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven, I'll come crawling on back to you. I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram, on a silver black phantom bike. When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry, and we're all about to see the light. Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole. Everything is stunted and lost. And nothing really rocks And nothing really rolls And nothing's ever worth the cost. And I know that I'm damned if I never get out, And maybe I'm damned if I do, But with every other beat I've got left in my heart, You know I'd rather be damned with you. If I gotta be damned you know I wanns be damned, dancing through the night with you. If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned. Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned. If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned, Dancing through the night Dancing through the night Dancing through the night with you. Oh baby you're the only thing in this whole world, that's pure and good and right. And wherever you are and wherever you go, there's always gonna be some light. But I gotta get out, I gotta break it out now, Before the final crack of dawn. So we gotta make the most of our one night together. When it's over you know, We'll both be so alone. Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes. When the night is over Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone. Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes. But when the day is done and the sun goes down, and the moonlights shining through, Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven, I'll come crawling on back to you. I can see myself tearing up the road, Faster than any other boy has ever gone. And my skin is raw but my soul is ripe. No-one's gonna stop me now, I gotta make my escape. But I can't stop thinking of you, and I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late. I never see the sudden curve 'till it's way too late. Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun. Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike. And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell. And the last thing I see is my heart, Still beating, Breaking out of my body, And flying away, Like a bat out of hell. Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun. Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike. And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell. And the last thing I see is my heart. Still beating, still beating, Breaking out of my body and flying away, Like a bat out of hell. Like a bat out of hell. Like a bat out of hell. Oh like a bat out of hell! Oh like a bat out of hell! Like a bat out of hell! good evening (said in my dracula voice)
