Spill The Wine
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take
that pearl
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that
pearl
I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day
When I
thought I'd lay myself down to rest
in a big field of tall grass
I lay
there in the sun and felt it caressing my face
And I fell asleep and dreamed
I dreamed I was in a
Hollywood movie
And that I was the star of the movie
This really blew my
mind, the fact that me,
an overfed, long-haired leaping gnome
should be
the star of a Hollywood movie
But there I was, I was taken to a place, the hall of the
mountain kings
I stood high upon a mountain top, naked to the world
In
front of every kind of girl, there was
black ones, round ones, big ones,
crazy ones...
Out of the middle came a lady
She whispered in my ear
something crazy
She said:
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take
that pearl
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that
pearl
I thought to myself what could that mean
Am I going crazy
or is this just a dream
Now, wait a minute
I know I'm lying in a field of
grass somewhere
so it's all in my head
and then.. I heard her say one more
time:
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take
that pearl
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that
pearl
I could feel hot flames of fire roaring at my back
As she
disappeared, but soon she returned
In her hand was a bottle of wine, in the
other, a glass
She poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass
And raised it to her lips
And just before she drank it, she said:
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take
that pearl
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that
pearl
Spirit
I’ve been watching you,
For such a long time.
I can’t
lose your memory, baby,
You’re always on my mind.
Tearin’ my day, baby.
Weekends too.
I just can’t lose your memory, baby,
Everywhere I look I see
you.
You got spirit. Spirit, baby.
You got, you got spirit.
Spirit, baby.
Come on, come on, come on, spirit. Spirit, baby.
Give it up,
give it up, give it up. Yea, yea.
Spirit, but I ain’t got you. I ain’t got
you.
Blow your horn, blow your horn, baby.
Blow your horn, baby. Blow,
blow.
Oooo your spirit is taunting me, baby.
Oooooooo your spirit
is haunting me, baby. Yea.
I can’t get you, baby, out of my mind (out of my
mind).
Oooo I can’t get you, baby, yea
Out of my mind. I swear,
I’m goin’ crazy, yes I am.
I swear I’m goin’ crazy, for you.
You got what
I need so bad,
You got what I need so bad.
Everywhere I go, baby, all I
see is you
Staring back at me.
Spirit, spirit baby.
Spirit, spirit
baby.
Give it up, give it up, give it up. Yea, yea.
Spirit, spirit baby.
Come on, come on, come on.
Spirit I ain’t got you.
I wish that I
If
only I, if only I, if only I, if only I,
If I had you, baby, I’d have the
world tied in the palm of my hand.
Ooo in the palm of my hand, I’d have the
world in the palm of my hand
If only I had you, If only I, If only I.
Maybe you don’t know, baby. Maybe you don’t know, baby,
But you know that
love is, love is everywhere, yes it is.
Love is, love is everywhere, love is
everywhere, love is, love is, love is....
Mother Earth
Mother Earth is waitin’ for you, yes she is.
She is big and
she’s round,
And it’s cold way down in the ground.
You may not be happy all the time,
You may never be that
way,
Mother Earth is waitin’ for you,
For that debt you’ve got to pay.
Don’t care how big you are,
I don’t care what you were,
When it all is up,
You’ve got to go back to Mother Earth.
You could be blasé with life,
Only make love to foreign
girls,
You may have a little jet, baby,
And fly all around the world,
Don’t care how big you are,
I don’t care what you were,
When it all is up,
You’ve got to go back to Mother Earth.
She is waitin’
for you. Yea.
When it all is up,
You got to go back,
Way back to
Mother Earth, yes.
I feel so bad, oh, all I can do is sing these blues, yea.
When it all is up,
You’ve got to go back to Mother Earth.
Oh baby you hear
what I say?
Magic Mountain
Well, I’m goin’ up, up on Magic Mountain.

Feeling

Poor people way down below,
That’s one place I never

You’ll be my baby, we will never come down,
Be my queen,

Visit my kingdom, it belongs to all,
Stay up

The time is now, up on this mountain.
Bare Back Ride
Let’s go bare back ridin’ baby, yes.
Come on baby, let’s go

Hat on your head, boots on your feet, spurs on your heels, you

And this little pony rides so sweet, so sweet, so sweet, so
sweet, so sweet!
Get on that little pony right now, baby, yes.
Get on that

Saddle on her back, bit in her mouth,

Don’t blow it, don’t blow it, don’t blow!
Oh, blow

Like
Sittin’ Bird used to ride. Like Apaches used to ride.
I’m talkin’ ‘bout bare back, bare back ridin’.
You can’t
get any closer, talkin’ ‘bout bare back, yea.
Talkin’ ‘bout skin-to-skin,
Talkin’ ‘bout you and me,
Talkin’ ‘bout ridin’ in the sunset,
Ridin’ all
night long, yea, all night long, all night long.
Grab the pony and ride,
Grab that pony and ride,
Grab

Grab that pony and ride,
Grab that pony, grab that
pony, grab that pony,
Grab that pony, grab that pony and ride.
Gun
Throw away your gun,
All it takes to have fun.
Throw away your knife,
Ain’t nobody got it made.
Throw away your,
Distorted life.
Throw away your anger, would save some tears.
Throw away
your anger, would save some tears.
Save the tears from all who are still back there,
Who have
not seen the love we share. Ooo, baby.
Throw away your hunger,
I’ll feed you.
Throw away your anger,
I’ll soothe you.
Throw away your hatred,
You’ve got my hand.
Throw away your mis-
understanding.
Throw it all away, come with me.
Throw it all away, come

I’ll take you to a place, you will smile.
I’ll take you to
a place, where you will,
Where you will, be at peace, be at peace with you,
You, yourself.
Take me baby.
Throw away your grass,
Your cocaine too.
Throw away your rage,
And those blues.
You won’t need any of that,
When I do the things I’ve got,
To say to you will get you high,
The things I do will make you cry.
Throw away your gun,
Your hatchet too.
Throw your mad,
Body too.
Throw it all away,
Throw it all away,
Come with me,
Come with me,
Come on let’s go with me,
Don’t hold on, baby,
Let go

Home Dream
Oooo yea.
Somethin’ pretty bad,
Has got a hold on me.
Somethin’
pretty bad, people,
Has got a hold on me.
At night, I just can’t sleep,
I can’t even close my eyes.
I just lay awake and think, people,
‘Bout that place, way across the sea.
Oh I just lay awake and dream, people,
About that place,
way across the sea, oh yea.
Where I was raised, where I was born,
Place
that means so much to me.
Well, I dreamed I saw the city, baby,
With its castles as
old as time.
I held hands with my baby, yes,
I could hardly keep from
crying.
Something pretty bad,
Has got a hold on me,
Got a hold
on me.
I just dream and dream and dream and hope and pray,
‘Bout that
place way across the sea,
Well, it means so much to me.
Oh yea tell ‘em.
Yea, all right.
Oh you’ll get there, I
know.
So I’ll just lay down in this gutter, baby,
And ease my
spinnin’ head.
Well, I’ll just lay down in this gutter, people,
And ease
my spinnin’ head.
I’ve got to have someone to ease the pain, baby,
Please
help me to my bed. Yea, yea.
You know somethin’ pretty bad,
I believe, has got a hold on
me, Yea.
I said somethin’ pretty bad,
I know, has got a grip on me.
I
just dream and dream and dream,
‘Bout my home way across the sea.
Yea, yea, yea, yea,
I’m comin’ home.
