She asked me maybe I would share her sorrow About the men that tried to treat her wrong Though just a baby A waiting her tomorrow It's rock me baby, rock me baby All night long She needs an answer to her confusion someone to guide her with tenderness But if she's asking for a solution All that she gets You know it's something like this Don't know where we come from Don't know where we're going to But if all of this should have a reason We would be the last to know So let's just hope there is a promised land Hang on till then as best you can Everybody's ills you know it Fills her with compassion That's why she tries To save the world alone She helps the needy in her own fashion And tries to give them all her own Rock me baby, rock me baby All night long |

I like to dream
Yes, yes right between the sound machine On a cloud of sight I drift in the night Any place it goes is right Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here Well, you don't know what we could find Why don't you come with me little girl on a magic carpet ride? Well you don't know what we could see Why don't you tell your dreams to me?, fantasy will set you free. Last night I held Aladdin's lamp, so I wished that I could stay. Before the thing could answer me well someone took, Took the lamp away I looked around a lousy can was all I found. Close your eyes girl, look inside girl, let the Sound take you away |

Ride the waves of everlove
Let them throw you on the beach Gathering experience While it's still in your reach Faster faster Faster than the speed of life Faster faster Faster than the speed of life Summer nights of secret fun Moving farther out each day Like a shooting star you're flying Burning up what's in your way Faster faster Faster than the speed of life Faster faster Faster than the speed of life Screaming through the walls of inhibition Past the stream, you're breaking free There you stand, attained and in confusion Spread your arms and come to me Faster faster Faster than the speed of life Faster faster Faster than the speed of life Faster faster faster Faster faster faster Faster than the speed of life |

Out on my Night Hog somebody temptin'
Hear it scream on by your house The highway sign is my only call Cause a demon deep inside keeps driving me to roam Well I'm nobody's slave, I'm nobody's master Time is mine, morning, night and afternoon And you hitch-hiking woman, when you see me coming, Jump on my back and let your hair come tumbling down I'm going downtown to see my lady I'm going downtown to tell her goodbye I won't hang around, it's driving me crazy I'll be out of town 'til the chilly winds start to blow Out on my Night Hog somebody temptin' Hear it scream on by your house My rolling hog will hunt the night And chase the road until it's time to strike Well I'm nobody's slave, I'm nobody's master Time is mine, morning, night and afternoon And you hitch-hiking woman, when you see me coming, Jump on my back and let your hair come tumbling down |

Words and music by John Kay
Some of us are Rock n' Roll stars Chasing the flash and travel Most of us wear the right length of hair But that's all that is left of the dream Oh, the dream it was born in the summer of love And it died with the Woodstock Nation But what has it left for the carpenter's son And the new coming generation? Oh, we all believed we knew the way But fate did not agree Now we've tired of asking who we are And what we ought to be Children of the night howling at the gate Here to claim forgotten dreams Too late, too late Orphans of the darkness Waiting to belong Been list'ning to the same old story Too long to care, too long Barely thirteen…hard and they're mean… Hunting in packs…like jackals… They prey on the meek, the old and the weak Like a scourge on the face of the earth All around our town They're fighting with guns And building their homemade bazookas And ten year old Jimmy got arrested in school They found a tank in his locker Oh, we all believed we held the key To peaceful harmony But the times have changed the way we feel And we fear our destiny Sure must be fun to watch a president run Just ask the man who owns one Why, up on the hill, they're killing the bill That would pay for his capitol crime But cardinal sin- he blessed him and said "I know that you're rotten down to the core But nobody else can do it so well That's why I'm behind you for three years more" Oh, they all believed they'd found the one Who'd lead them to the light But the tides will turn against the fool Who'd believe that wrong it right ⓒ 1974 Black Leather Music, Inc.

At six a.m. this morning, oh the man knocked at my door
I screamed in his ear, I'm not the guy you're looking for But got taken, I got taken just the same When it comes to getting sleep at night Oh I just can't seem to win I went down to the zoo where I thought I might hide There I met a friendly grizzly bear, who took me for a ride And I got mangled, oh I got pushed all out of shape When it comes to being sociable Oh I just can't seem to win While climbing up Mt. Everest to get away from all the noise I slipped on a banana peel and almost got destroyed And I was worried all the way down to the ground When it comes to holding safety nets Nobody seems to be around When I put myself together I found that it was best If I no longer tried to be just like all the rest Because I'm twisted, yeah but that's the bag I'm in When it comes to being normal Oh I just can't seem to win |

We'll call you when you're six years old
And drag you to the factory To train your brain for eighteen years With promise of security But then you're free And forty years you waste to chase the dollar sign So you may die in Florida At the pleasant age of sixty nine The water's getting hard to drink We've mangled up the country side The air will choke you when you breathe We're all committing suicide But it's alright It's progress folks keep pushin' till your body rots Will strip the earth of all it's green And then divide her into parking lots But there's nothing you and I can do You and I are only two What's right and wrong is hard to say Forget about it for today We'll stick our heads into the sand Just pretend that all is grand Then hope that everything turns out ok You're free to speak your mind my friend As long as you agree with me Don't criticize the father land Or those who shape your destiny 'Cause if you do You'll lose your job your mind and all the friends you knew We'll send out all our boys in blue They'll find a way to silence you But there's nothing you and I can do You and I are only two What's right and wrong is hard to say Forget about it for today We'll stick our heads into the sand Just pretend that all is grand Then hope that everything turns out ok |

Your eyes are moist, you scream and shout
As though you were a man possessed From deep inside comes rushing forth All the anguish you suppressed Up on your wall hangs your degree Your parents craved so much for you And though you're trained to make your mark You still don't quite know what to do It's never too late to start all over again To love the people you caused the pain And help them learn your name Oh, no, not too late It's never too late to start all over again Well, it's much to late to start again To try and find a little bliss So on your woman and your child You release your bitterness You drift apart some more each day You feel the guilt and loneliness And the God of your childhood you can't find To save you from your emptiness It's never too late to start all over again To love the people you caused the pain And help them learn your name Oh, no, not too late It's never too late to start all over again You say you've only got one life to live And when your dead your gone Your family comes to your grave And with tears in their eyes They tell you, you did something wrong "You left us alone" Tell me who's to say after all is done And you're finally gone, you won't be back again You can find a way to change today You don't have to wait 'til then |

I was raised in the ruins, mama, 'till I was thirteen
Every day I heard the radio Every night I had the same old dream To sing a song, oh, baby, to watch my name in lights If you wanna see your dream come true Honeychild, you gotta get right down and fight Well I sailed cross the ocean, girl, I felt so all alone Many times I thought about goin' right back home But the Joy I found in song gave me the will to carry on Live your life the way you want to Don't let fools lead you astray Live you dreams so you hold on to All you need along the way I was payin' my dues right here in the land of the free All the time I learned to sing along I could not speak and I could barely see Still all the while I knew where I was at But the people that believed in me Lord, I could count them all in seconds flat Well, someday I would be, I knew it all along A gentleman of leisure, girl, right or wrong And though my dream has come and gone There's plenty more where those came from Repeat Chorus |

If I should go astray and say "I lost my way" nobody would know me
But if I don't believe I can and still say "Hear my plan" Somebody would follow just because it's free We're all Hippos rollin' down the river Sometimes we can't touch the ground Like Hippos slidin' in the water Somehow we're stompin' around If you should go astray and say "I lost my way" nobody will know you But if you don't believe you can and still say "I'm your man" Somebody will follow just because it's free We're all Hippos rollin' down the river Sometimes we can't touch the ground Like Hippos slindin' in the water Somehow we're stompin' around Now you can see me lyin' down in my swamp Any time I feel disgusted You'll see me do the hippo stomp You stop and watch me while you're out on your midnite romp And I can feel the silent question What the heck is the Hippo Stomp? Hey! Hey! You should try it when you're feelin' blue Let me answer you and let me tell ya true Just how I feel when I'm down Sometimes I wonder You'll see me stumblin' around But you just point and stare Come on let me hear ya Somewhere there's a voice down inside And when you find it let it teach you how to ask the question "why" Just because we live together We don't have to like each other So please don't fall asleep on me again Nobody, nobody, nobody knows for sure You just might never wake up from the dream Hey! Speak up let me hear ya Let me show you 'round the reservation I know my way around these parts I've lived here long enough Now you can have a taste, an indication Of things and times to come Early in the morning, late at night Somebody seems to know just how this thing work's right 'Cause every time I come around the corner somebody's looking out my door He's been snoopin' like a hound I'll grab his neck and shake him on down Now you can see me lyin' down in my swamp Any time I feel disgusted You'll see me do the Hippo Stomp |
