Headed for Ohio when I read the news 'Bout the people demonstrating 'gainst the President's views Four were shot down by the National Guard troops Just like Uncle Sam I put on my fighting shoes School shot down cause there's no more to lose Now we're headed to D.C. two by twos Cause those low down, profound, killin' four blues Lookin' for my Congressman to make it well known But the politicians already won't answer his telephone Making in his office while they're shooting kids down at home Worried about the voters but he won't be worried long Silent majority still glued to the tube Say CIA ain't lookin', FBI come unglued Shot some more in Jackson just to show the world what they can do While we're marching to D.C. cause there's too much to do Give peace a chance Give peace a chance There's no turnin' back my friend There's no turnin' back When the President said that the tear gas is gone The army's pulled out leavin' blood on the ground The streets are empty and the crying's died down You can be President if no one's around Just like Kow Kow, you've heard it before Get back gangster, don't you open that door Space Cowboy's back to tell you the score Nothing any good is gonna come from a war Got those low down, profound, killin' four blues Give peace a chance Give peace a chance Give peace a chance |

Ooh, mama
Well look what's been done You can only see the stars After a setting sun You run for the money You don't even know about wild mountain honey Come on mama Heal this lonesome man Grow the tree of wholeness In this desert land Come on children Now learn how to run By heaven, the stars, the moon and the sun Come on papa Your end is the means Don't trade your love and goodness For the golden machine You run for the money You don't even know about wild mountain honey |

Your cash ain't nothing but trash (Take 1).
Here we go. Yeah, you may have heart about the gangster of love and the space cowboy, But I'm gonna whip a cat on you right now who's had more trouble, trials and tribulations. One, two, three, hey Yeah It's alright Look here I was walking down the main track One night I met a fine chick She was built just right She stopped when I flashed my roll I told her she could have all of my dough She turned around and with a frown She said this ain't no circus And I don't need a clown [Chorus] Your cash ain't nothin' but trash [Repeat: x3] And there ain't no need in your hangin' around Just to make a hit with that chick I tried to get a Cadillac right quick The man at the place he looked so strange I had 900 bucks and some change We disagreed I tried to plead Well, he said I ain't a chicken And I don't need your feed [Chorus] Well, baby you're crawling way past your speed I was walkin' into town in my white bucks A man with a gun, he said hands up I tried to get away but too slow He got me and took all of my dough I heard him shout As he cut out Well you ain't lost nothin' What you cryin' about [Chorus] And he took my watch and I passed out I woke up in the arms of a big cop Police station Next stop Judge swung his fist down Plunk plunk $20 fine cause you're drunk Pick up the dough And you can go All I had was a buffalo [Chorus] But I'm sure gonna get me some more |

But they are such a chosen few, chosen few And clover being green Is something I've never seen Cause I was born to be blue When there's a yellow moon above me They say there's moonbeams I should view, I should view But moonbeams being gold Are something I can't behold Cause I was born to be blue When I met you The world was bright and sunny When you left the curtain fell I'd like to laugh But nothing strikes me funny Now my world's a faded pastel, oh well I guess I'm luckier than some folks Woo woo woo I've known the thrill of lovin' you, lovin' you And that alone is more than I was created for Cause I was born to be blue When I met you The world was bright and sunny When you left the curtain fell I'd like to laugh But nothing strikes me funny Now my world's a faded pastel, oh well I guess I'm luckier than some folks I've known the thrill of lovin' you, lovin' you And that alone is more than I was created for Cause I was born to be blue Woo woo |

When Sunny gets blue Her eyes get gray and cloudy Then the rain begins to fall Pitter, patter, pitter, patter Love has gone so what can matter No lover man comes to call When Sunny gets blue She breathes a sigh of sadness Like the wind that stirs the tree Wind that sets the leaves to swayin' Like some violins are playin' Weird and haunting melody People used to love to hear her laugh, to see her smile That's how she got her name Since that sad affair She's lost her smile, she's changed her style Somehow she's not the same But memories will fade and pretty dreams will rise up Where her other dreams fell through Hurry new love, hurry here And brush away each falling tear and hold her near When Sunny gets blue People used to love to hear her laugh, to see her smile That's how she got her name Since that sad affair She's lost her smile, she's changed her style Somehow she's not the same But memories will fade and pretty dreams will rise up Where her other dreams fell through Hurry new love, hurry here And brush away each falling tear and hold her near When Sunny gets blue |

So you think you know just what goes on inside your head, my friend
There is so much more than you and I can comprehend Things that make you laugh, things that make you cry Let you love when you feel like you wanna die There's no answer to the questions that we find inside, my friend But when we start to wonder why, we wind up further behind, my friend All we see has always been shown But there's so many things that I've never known So you think you know, my friend But you don't know, my friend, my friend You think you know But you don't know All for one and one for all It's everything or nothing at all Listen, my friend You don't know No, my friend You don't know |

Well, the room is a cyclone
And you are in the eye There ain't no movement Things that could die But the reelin' and the spinnin' Of the rock and roll sides Will all be gone before midnight And die before sunrise You better go to overdrive Go to overdrive If you know what it is And you wanna stay alive You better go to overdrive Go to overdrive Yes, the corner's full of monkeys And your ear drum's full of lies Time is out the window And there's echoes in your sides They've been burnin' down your walls Ever since the peep of dawn And now the dealer's in the fireplace Tryin' to turn it on You better go to overdrive Go to overdrive If you know that it's time And you oughtta take a dive You better go to overdrive Go to overdrive Go to overdrive Go to overdrive You know what it is And you wanna stay alive You better go to overdrive Go to overdrive Now the light road's gettin' restless Cause he knows your overdue But it's just another train ride Bein' all the same to you And the last shot's at your finger tips Like that flicker in the grass And the last cord hits the ashes And you know you gotta pass You better go to overdrive Go to overdrive If you know that it's time And you oughtta take a dive You better go to overdrive Go to overdrive |

Feel like I'm livin' under some kind of hex
Livin' in here in this industrial military complex Doesn't really help when I read Time magazine Cause they only distort the scene The sky is so hazy I can't even see the sun Livin' here is like livin' under a gun I really do wonder 'bout the United Nations Why don't they face the situations I'm a troubadour Lookin' for a dream I'm a troubadour Lookin' for some dream Lord, I'm so tired of payin' all of these dues From Sunday to Sunday all I hear is bad news Tired of the war and those industrial fools Got to make it better cause I've got nothin' to lose Ain't too clear to pay my income taxes 'Specially when I know it goes to kill the masses Love to hear the President make it perfectly clear How the donkeys and the elephants are police up here I'm a troubadour Lookin for a dream I'm a troubadour Lookin for some dream Lord, I'm so tired of payin' all of these dues From Sunday to Sunday all I hear is bad news Tired of the war and those industrial fools I've got to make it better cause I've got nothin' lose Won't somebody help me cause I've gotten in my shoes Those industrial military complex blues |

I was down in Nashville just payin' my dues
Headed for Ohio when I read the news 'Bout the people demonstrating 'gainst the President's views Four were shot down by the National Guard troops Just like Uncle Sam I put on my fighting shoes School shot down cause there's no more to lose Now we're headed to D.C. two by twos Cause those low down, profound, killin' four blues Lookin' for my Congressman to make it well known But the politicians already won't answer his telephone Making in his office while they're shooting kids down at home Worried about the voters but he won't be worried long Silent majority still glued to the tube Say CIA ain't lookin', FBI come unglued Shot some more in Jackson just to show the world what they can do While we're marching to D.C. cause there's too much to do Give peace a chance Give peace a chance There's no turnin' back my friend There's no turnin' back When the President said that the tear gas is gone The army's pulled out leavin' blood on the ground The streets are empty and the crying's died down You can be President if no one's around Just like Kow Kow, you've heard it before Get back gangster, don't you open that door Space Cowboy's back to tell you the score Nothing any good is gonna come from a war Got those low down, profound, killin' four blues Give peace a chance Give peace a chance Give peace a chance |
