'Fixin'-To-Die-Rag', 'Fixin'-To-Die-Rag', Take 1.<br />
One, two, three, four.<br />
Well, come on all of you, big strong men,<br />
Uncle Sam needs your help again.<br />
Yeah, he's got himself in a terrible jam<br />
Way down yonder in Vietnam<br />
So put down your books and pick up a gun,<br />
Gonna have a whole lotta fun.<br />
And it's one, two, three,<br />
What are we fighting for?<br />
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,<br />
Next stop is Vietnam;<br />
And it's five, six, seven,<br />
Open up the pearly gates,<br />
Well there ain't no time to wonder why,<br />
Whoopee! we're all gonna die.<br />
Yeah, come on Wall Street, don't be slow,<br />
Why man, this is war au-go-go<br />
There's plenty good money to be made<br />
By supplying the Army with the tools of its trade,<br />
Just hope and pray that if they drop the bomb,<br />
They drop it on the Viet Cong.<br />
And it's one, two, three,<br />
What are we fighting for?<br />
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,<br />
Next stop is Vietnam.<br />
And it's five, six, seven,<br />
Open up the pearly gates,<br />
Well there ain't no time to wonder why<br />
Whoopee! we're all gonna die.<br />
Well, come on generals, let's move fast;<br />
Your big chance has come at last.<br />
Now you can go out and get those reds<br />
'Cause the only good commie is the one that's dead<br />
And you know that peace can only be won<br />
When we've blown 'em all to kingdom come.<br />
And it's one, two, three,<br />
What are we fighting for?<br />
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,<br />
Next stop is Vietnam;<br />
And it's five, six, seven,<br />
Open up the pearly gates,<br />
Well there ain't no time to wonder why<br />
Whoopee! we're all gonna die.<br />
Come on mothers throughout the land,<br />
Pack your boys off to Vietnam.<br />
Come on fathers, and don't hesitate<br />
To send your sons off before it's too late.<br />
You can be the first ones in your block<br />
To have your boy come home in a box.<br />
And it's one, two, three<br />
What are we fighting for?<br />
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,<br />
Next stop is Vietnam.<br />
And it's five, six, seven,<br />
Open up the pearly gates,<br />

I got love, love, I said love, love,<br />
I got love, baby.<br />
Well, I can tell by your smile what you wanna do,<br />
I can see in your eyes you got the feeling, too.<br />
So come on, baby, it's time to move,<br />

Johnny's gone to carry a gun<br />
Off he goes in the break of dawn<br />
Johnny's gone to the war<br />
<br />
See my Johnny standin' in the line<br />
Don't his uniform look fine?<br />
Children laughin' and girls all sighin'<br />
Johnny's gone to the war<br />
<br />
Early in the mornin' at the break of day<br />
See the young men march away<br />
Mothers weepin' and fathers prayin'<br />
Johnny's gone to the war<br />
<br />
Out of the land the young men poured<br />
It's flesh to feed the guns of war<br />
Johnny isn't a boy anymore<br />
Johnny's gone to the war<br />
<br />
Out on the field where the young men fell<br />
In the scream of shot and the roar of shell<br />
Men plunged down the throat of... heaven<br />
Johnny's gone to the war<br />
<br />
After the battle in the mud and rain<br />
The air is red with the screams of pain<br />
His eyes will never see the light again<br />
Johnny's gone to the war<br />
<br />
There's a mail train a-rollin' down the track<br />
Carryin' a letter edged in black<br />
And it says that Johnny won't be back<br />
Johnny's gone to the war...<br />

I thought I'd join the Army just to take a look around.<br />
I went on down to the recruiter man<br />
And that's when all my troubles began.<br />
Well, I've been up, down and around<br />
This country more than a couple of times,<br />
But I never knew until I got into the Army<br />
That thinking for yourself was a crime.<br />
Get over here, stand over there,<br />
Let's see your identification.<br />
Shut your mouth, son, get back in line,<br />
We're sending you to South East Asia.<br />
Well, they gave me some shoes that hurt my feet<br />
They gave me some food not fit to eat,<br />
They told me that I wasn't fighting alone,<br />
They sent me to Saigon and they stayed home.<br />
Well, I've been up, down and around<br />
This country more than a couple of times,<br />
But I never knew until I got into the Army<br />
That thinking for yourself was a crime.<br />
Get over here, stand over there,<br />
Let's see your identification.<br />
Shut your mouth, son, get back in line,<br />
We're sending you to South East Asia.<br />
All right.<br />
One, two, three, four,<br />
We don't want your fuckin' war,<br />
A, B, C, D,<br />
Get someone else, hey don't get me,<br />
Left, right, left, right,<br />
You know the whole damn thing puts me uptight.<br />
I done my duty and I fought my fight<br />
And I thought I knew I was doing right,<br />
But that's all over, I'm free at last,<br />
An' if they want any more, they can kiss my ass.<br />
'Cause I've been up and down and around<br />
This country more than a couple of times,<br />
But I never knew until I got into the Army<br />
That thinking for yourself was a crime.<br />
Get over here, stand over there,<br />
Let's see your identification.<br />
Shut your mouth, son, get back in line,<br />

Late last night I was watchin' the tube<br />
When I saw the most incredible thing<br />
They built a new mechanical man<br />
Looked just like a human being.<br />
I started to become terrified,<br />
Good God it was makin' me sick<br />
And then I began to realize<br />
It was no one but Tricky Dick.<br />
Yes, it was Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda<br />
Hip hip hip hurrah.<br />
Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda<br />
Hip hip hip hurrah.<br />
He walks and he talks, he smiles, he frowns,<br />
He does what a human can,<br />
It was Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda,<br />
The genuine plastic man.<br />
There is no can't in American<br />
Or so we once could say<br />
But now our boys won't fight no more<br />
To bring us victory.<br />
Where are the mountain majesties<br />
Above the fruited plains?<br />
Who will come to lead us<br />
In our hour of pain?<br />
Why it's Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda<br />
Hip hip hip hurrah.<br />
It's Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda<br />
Hip hip hip hurrah.<br />
He walks and he talks, he smiles, he frowns,<br />
He does what a human can,<br />
He's Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda,<br />
The genuine plastic man, hey!<br />
Oh my God, it's terrible<br />
Here in the U.S.A.<br />
The water's polluted, the economy's crashing<br />
And can someone save the day?<br />
The war keeps going on and on<br />
And the kids won't respect the cops,<br />
It's even said that God is dead,<br />
When will it ever stop?<br />
Hey, it's Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda<br />
Hip hip hip hurrah.<br />
Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda<br />
Hip hip hip hurrah.<br />
He walks, he talks, he smiles, he frowns,<br />
He does what a human can,<br />
He's Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda,<br />
The genuine plastic man.<br />
And across the garbaged highways<br />
From the oil-drenched plains<br />
Now we'll see a victory,<br />
America shall rise again.<br />
Past the word that the buffalo heard<br />
To the home of the free and the brave,<br />
He's Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda<br />
Hip hip hip hurrah.<br />
Well, it's Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda<br />
Hip hip hip hurrah.<br />
Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda<br />
Hip hip hip hurrah.<br />
He walks, he talks, he smiles, he frowns,<br />
He does what a human can,<br />
He's Tricky Dicky from Yorba Linda,<br />
The genuine plastic man, oh yeah,<br />
He's the genuine plastic man, oh yeah,<br />
He's the genuine plastic man.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6258430588886587759.post-48299460959540598042017-01-17T01:00:00.001-08:002017-01-17T01:00:11.144-08:00Free Some Day lyrics - Country Joe and The FishOh brothers and sisters come on and join the army<br />

The night 'fore Christmas we put up a tree,<br />
You know it sure was a beautiful sight to see<br />
The kids standin' round with a smile on their face<br />
Were hangin' their stockings over the fireplace<br />
And off to bed you know we all did race<br />
Just a-waitin' for ol' Santa Claus.<br />
Santa Claus, you dirty dog,<br />
You know you done us wrong.<br />
Woke up this morning, took a look around,<br />
The Christmas tree was gone.<br />
Well, come on, folks won't you listen to me,<br />
I'm gonna tell ya the story about my Christmas tree<br />
This kind of thing it won't happen no more<br />
I'm gonna nail down the tree to the living-room floor<br />
Wait for ol' Santa behind the door<br />
And when he comes I'm gonna say<br />
Santa Claus, you dirty dog,<br />
You know you done us wrong.<br />
Woke up this morning, took a look around,<br />
The Christmas tree was gone.<br />
Well, come on, folks won't you listen to me,<br />
I'm gonna tell ya the story about my Christmas tree<br />
This kind of thing it won't happen no more<br />
I'm gonna nail down the tree to the living-room floor<br />

Behind volumes of literature based on herself<br />
And runs across the pages like some tiny elf<br />
Knowing that it's hard to find<br />
Stuff way back in her mind<br />
Winds up spending all of her time<br />
Trying to memorize every line<br />
Sweet Lorraine, ah sweet Lorraine.<br />
<br />
Sweet lady of death wants me to die<br />
So she can come sit by my bedside and sigh<br />
And wipe away the tears from all my friends eyes<br />
Then softly she will explain<br />
Just exactly who was to blame<br />
For causing me to go insane<br />
And finally blow out my brain<br />
Sweet Lorraine, ah sweet Lorraine.<br />
<br />
Well you know that it's a shame and a pity<br />
You were raised up in the city<br />
And you never learned nothing 'bout country ways<br />
Ah 'bout country ways.<br />
<br />
The joy of life she dresses in black<br />
With celestial secrets engraved in her back<br />
And her face keeps flashing that she's got the knack<br />
But you know when you look into her eyes<br />
All she's learned she's had to memorize<br />
And the only way you'll ever get her high<br />
Is to let her do her thing and then watch you die<br />
Sweet Lorraine, ah sweet Lorraine.<br />
<br />
Now she's the one who gives us all those magical things<br />
And reads us stories out of the I Ching<br />
Then she passes out a whole new basket of rings<br />
That when you put on your hand<br />
Makes you one of the Angel Band<br />
And gives you the power to be a man<br />
But what it does for her you never quite understand<br />
Sweet Lorraine, ah sweet Lorraine.<br />
<br />
Well you know that it's a shame and a pity<br />
You were raised up in the city<br />
And you never learned nothing 'bout country ways<br />
Oh 'bout country ways, oh 'bout country ways<br />
Yeah about country ways, oh country ways...<br />

Open my eyes, I've been dreaming<br />
After all this time it seems so strange<br />
I woke up today and changed my way of living.<br />
<br />
Sing, sing, sing<br />
Sing, sing, sing<br />
Sing me a love song<br />
Sing me a love song.<br />
<br />
Last night while lying in our bed was you who turned to me and said:<br />
'Is it really me you love? Tell me what you're thinking of'<br />
'Are you thinking thoughts of loving me?'.<br />
<br />
'My love for you is something warm like silver drops of laughter'<br />
'Giving life and taking form, dreaming dreams of unborn'<br />
'Children by our side'.<br />
<br />
Open my mind, I've been sleeping<br />
Open my mind, I've been sleeping<br />
After all this time it seems so strange<br />
I woke up today and changed my way of living.<br />
<br />
Sing, sing, sing (sing, sing, sing)<br />
Sing, sing, sing (sing me a love song)<br />
Sing, sing, sing (sing me a love song)<br />
Sing, sing, sing (sing me a love song)<br />

She's a bird that whistles, a bird that sings<br />
She'll fly off into the morning rain<br />
She'll fly off into the morning rain.<br />

Yonder comes my darling after me<br />
Yonder comes my darling after me<br />
And for one of her smiles I'd promise the mountains and the sea<br />
For one of her smiles I'd promise the mountains and the sea.<br />

They come to me with open eyes<br />
Dreaming of her and other lives<br />
To pass the time waiting for Mara.<br />
<br />
And I alone beside her sit<br />
There's just a lonely candle lit<br />
It casts a glowing over it, Mara.<br />
<br />
Green is ember, blue is gold<br />
A not so different story told<br />
Please take my arms, they're growing cold, Mara.<br />
<br />
Green and silver, they're off to the moon<br />
I've lost my way, she's lost hers too<br />
Now that I love what shall I do<br />
To pass the time waiting for Mara.<br />
<br />
And I alone beside her sit<br />
There's just a lonely candle lit<br />
It casts a glowing over it, Mara.<br />

Green is ember, blue is gold<br />

Looking for people to feed him lines<br />
Feeling up his head then reaching for mine<br />
I ask him how he's doing and he says: 'Just fine'<br />
He calls it learning but we know that he's dying<br />
That seems to be the price when you're walking on ice<br />
It ain't so nice but it helps to pass the time.<br />
You got to hang on, you got to hang on<br />
You got to hang on before you fall, hey before you fall.<br />
At social functions of the marching band<br />
He takes his routine up on the stand<br />
And trying to get the lay of the land<br />
You know he sings and dances in the burning sand<br />
Until someone puts a microphone in his hand<br />
And then he will say as he slowly backs away<br />
'Another day perhaps you'll understand'.<br />
You got to hang on, you got to hang on<br />
You got to hang on before you fall, before you fall.<br />
<br />
With maps and charts now he plots the skies<br />
Surrounds himself with mystic eyes<br />
Dwells on deeds of other lives<br />
Sings secret chants and lullabies<br />
Then he'll come to sit and hypothesize<br />
Again and again about the shape that he's in<br />
Well now he's my friend but I know that they're mostly sighs.<br />
<br />
You got to hang on, you got to hang on<br />
You got to hang on before you fall, before you fall.<br />
And running behind the Hit Parade<br />
He yells out songs that others have made<br />
Unable to see his own masquerade<br />
You know he waves his sword with the gilt edge blade<br />
And I'd love to send him to Travelers' Aid<br />
For when he hears the sound of the stuff he's putting down<br />
He might drown in his own cascade.<br />
You got to hang on, you got to hang on<br />
You got to hang on before you fall, before you fall<br />
Before you fall, fall, fall, before you fall<br />
You got to hang on, Sloopy, hang on<br />
Hang on before you fall, all right.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6258430588886587759.post-2881046379026320022017-01-09T02:57:00.008-08:002017-01-09T02:57:47.002-08:00The Baby Song lyrics - Country Joe and The FishNever before, never again<br />
Inside of her all life begins<br />
Far more than we can ever hope to comprehend.<br />
<br />
Some part from her, some part from me<br />
Life from our love eternally<br />
Now from the one of us, one more shall be.<br />
<br />
Come with me, come with me<br />
And we shall make a baby<br />
Come with me, come with me<br />
And we shall make a baby.<br />

Laughing and singing, smoke filled the air<br />
Everybody was rapping on the way it used to be<br />
I searched my mind for the good old days, they're coming up you know.<br />
<br />
Hey Bobby, where you been? We missed you out on the streets<br />
I hear you've got yourself another scene, it's called a retreat<br />
I can still remember days when men were men<br />
I know it's difficult for you to remember way back then, hey.<br />
<br />
Screamin' Jay can't put no spell on me, I ain't afraid of no bones<br />
Tell them guys in Washington, D.C. to leave my friends alone<br />
I'm sick and tired of hearing your lies<br />
Takes nothin' less than the truth to get me high.<br />
<br />
Hey, I had a dream the other night, everybody was there<br />

Dress my baby in silver and<br />
Dress my baby in silver and gold<br />
Now, now, now, now, now.<br />

Rubies, sapphires and diamonds<br />
Rubies, sapphires and diamonds<br />
Rubies, sapphires and diamonds on her hands<br />
Now, now, now, now, now.<br />
<br />
She don't never tell me lies<br />
She don't go with other guys<br />
She just wants to keep me high<br />
Oh my baby drives me crazy.<br />

Oh my baby drives me crazy.<br />

Makes you wanna get up and stomp your feet<br />
Clap your hands and scream and shout<br />
You know that rock and roll just knocks me out.<br />
<br />
Rockin' all around the world<br />
Rockin' all around the world<br />
Rockin' all around the world<br />

Come on, boys, now haven't you heard?<br />
Come on, girls, did you get the word?<br />
They're rockin' all around the world<br />
Rockin' round the world.<br />
<br />
Some people say country music is fine<br />
Psychedelic music will blow your mind<br />
Blues it got soul and so does jazz<br />
Rockin' got the stomp that... rock 'n' roll has.<br />
Rockin' all around the world<br />

Hey, rockin' round the world.<br />
<br />
Old folks don't know, they can't understand<br />
The words and the music of a rock and roll band<br />
But the kids in the schools and the hippies in the streets<br />
Are doing their thing to a rock and roll beat.<br />
Rockin' all around the world<br />
Rockin' all around the world<br />
Rockin' all around the world<br />
Rockin' all around the world<br />
Come on, boys, now haven't you heard?<br />

Comes a new kind of engine from way out of sight<br />
She's good looking and her lines are mighty clean<br />
The name of that engine is the Love Machine.<br />
<br />
Put some fuel in her tender and turn up the steam<br />
You can hear, you can hear that whistle scream<br />
You can see her coming on down the track<br />
She'll send little shivers up and down your back.<br />
<br />
I know you've heard of old ninety-nine<br />
Perhaps the red caboose<br />
But they will all be left behind<br />
When the Love Machine gets loose.<br />

Now people I'm talking about love<br />
And I'm talking about a machine yeah, huh!<br />
It's a clean machine and a fine machine<br />

Sweet lady, won't you come beside me and make me feel all right?<br />
The hours without you seem too long to bear<br />
Gray witch goddess, I suspect that you don't care<br />
But it's simply a matter of wanting you here by me<br />
Here by me.<br />
<br />
And off into the silent night she creeps from her bed<br />
Beaming, gleaming crystal screams surrounding her in red<br />
If she can't have your heart then she'll have your soul instead<br />
Remember her name, it's sweet Lorraine<br />
Now, nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah.<br />
<br />
A million years, a trillion stars away from me<br />
Fluorescent spheres and diamond studded galaxies<br />
Swirling, spinning, soft and swift<br />
At last our love has come to this<br />
The silver circle returned to energy<br />
Returned to energy.<br />
<br />
I've closed the curtains, now we're all alone all by ourselves<br />
I can see your eyes aglow, I can feel all the things you've felt<br />
I watch you slowly turning, screaming into someone else<br />
And I remember your name, it's sweet Lorraine.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6258430588886587759.post-58477309909954739192017-01-09T02:55:00.003-08:002017-01-09T02:55:47.152-08:00The Hand Of Man lyrics - It's many an hour I've been thinking of our fate<br />
Doomed it seemed to live in a world of fear and hate<br />
I thought about the good and the love there could be<br />
How fear can blind a man, how people are not free.<br />
<br />
Hey, take my hand and come walk with me<br />
Brothers and sisters we all can be<br />
From a spark in the dark, from the hand of man<br />
Peace and understanding spread through our land.<br />
<br />
Take my hand and come walk with me<br />
Brothers and sisters we all can be<br />
From a spark in the dark, from the hand of man<br />
Peace and understanding spread through our land.<br />
<br />
I gazed into the sky and saw the rains come down<br />
I saw the deadly poisons flowing to the ground<br />
The rivers and the oceans turned into a grave<br />
All years of effort wasted, there was nothing left to save.<br />
<br />
Hey, take my hand and come walk with me<br />
Brothers and sisters we all can be<br />
From a spark in the dark, from the hand of man<br />
Peace and understanding spread through our land.<br />
<br />
Take my hand and come walk with me<br />

And evening's drowsiness to carry me away<br />
I know once again that there is nothing we can save,<br />
So I'll pack up my things, I'll be on my way.<br />
Yes, here I go again<br />
Off down the road again<br />
Thinking thoughts of days gone by.<br />
Here I am again<br />
Singing my songs again<br />
Thinking and dreaming<br />
Thoughts of you and I.<br />
Swirls of giant colors swam madly through my head,<br />
I looked around to find you, but I just found him instead.<br />
It might have been a dream for all the things we said<br />
But you promised me —<br />
Darling you promised me —<br />
Yes, and here I go again<br />
Off down the road again<br />
Thinking thoughts of things gone by.<br />
Here I am again<br />
Singing my songs again<br />
Thinking and dreaming<br />
Oh I feel like I could cry.<br />
Father's gone to fight the war,<br />
He left us here alone.<br />
I shiver in the lonesome night<br />
Beside the telephone<br />
But time brings no word,<br />
I guess he's not coming home,<br />
It feels like the end,<br />
It feels like the end, my friend.<br />
Here we go again<br />
Off down the road again<br />
Thinking thoughts of things gone by.<br />
Here I am again<br />
Singing my songs again<br />
Thinking and dreaming<br />
Oh I feel like I could<br />
Thinking and dreaming<br />
Oh I feel like I could<br />
Thinking and dreaming<br />
Oh I feel like I could die.<br />
Oh, yeah!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6258430588886587759.post-49842858901909691292017-01-09T02:54:00.000-08:002017-01-09T02:54:06.026-08:00Donnovan's Reef lyrics - Country Joe and The FishScorching the painted desert adrift off of Donovan's reef<br />
Tossing and spinning your pills alone brings such sweet relief.<br />
Open your mind and show me a sign to prove you're insane.<br />
Open your arms and show me the scars reflecting your pain.<br />
Lovely lady, forgive me now<br />
If words seem cruel<br />
If words seem cruel.<br />
You've lost your soul<br />
You've grown so cold<br />
You've learned the rules,<br />
Obey the rules of their game:<br />
Life's just a game.<br />
Pig boat sails across the seven seas<br />
Servants at home are down on their knees<br />
The master's praying and begging me, "Please<br />
Look away."<br />
Diamonds shining through an emerald sky<br />
Watch the phantom as he flies by<br />
Trying to laugh but he knows he must die.<br />
Look away, look away, look away.<br />
Satan dances of death and doom our time has finally come<br />
Lower imps of sin sing an orgy of our flesh begun.<br />
Excuse me, I can't seem to recall exactly what's happening here,<br />
Your mask in the past always seemed to me to be so sincere.<br />
She's stolen you away<br />
Taken your heart<br />
Once it was mine,<br />
Ah once it was mine.<br />
You look so cool<br />
But I'm no fool<br />
You'll pay for your crimes<br />
By doing your time in their game,<br />
Life's just a game<br />
Life's just a game<br />
You know that life is just a game<br />
Life's just a game<br />
Life's only a game...Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
