7 And 7 Is lyrics - Deep Purple
When I was a boy I thought about the times I'd be a man
I'd sit inside a bottle and pretend that I was in the can
But here in my lonely room I'd sit my mind in an ice cream cone
You can throw me if you wanna 'cause I'm a bone and I go
Oop-ip-ip oop-ip-ip, yeah!
Well if I don't start crying it's because that I have got no eyes
My father's in the fireplace and my dog lies hypnotized
Through a crack of light I was unable to find my way
Trapped inside a night but I'm a day and I go
Oop-ip-ip oop-ip-ip, yeah!
Rockin' Pneumonia And The Boogie Woogie Flu lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by Huey "Piano" Smith)
I wanna jump but I'm afraid I'll fall
I wanna holler but the joint's too small
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia
And-a boogie woogie flu
Want some lovin', baby, that ain't all
I wanna kiss her but she's way's too tall
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia
And-a boogie woogie flu
I wanna squeeze her but I'm way too low
I would be runnin' but my feet's too slow
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia
And-a boogie woogie flu
I wanna squeeze her but I'm way too low
I would be runnin' but my feet's too slow
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia
And-a boogie woogie flu
Baby comin' now, I'm hurryin' home
I know she's leavin' 'cause I'm takin' too long
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia
And-a boogie woogie flu
'Cause some lovin', baby, that ain't all
I wanna kiss her but she's way's too tall
Young man rhythm's got a hold of me too
I got-a rockin' pneumonia
And-a boogie woogie flu
I wanna jump, oh yeah
I wanna holler, yeah
I wanna squeeze, oh yeah
Alright
Oh Well lyrics - Deep Purple
I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well
Now, when I talked to God I knew He'd understand
He said, "Stick by me, I'll be your guiding hand
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to"
Oh well
I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well

(originally by Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels)
Oh see, C. C. Rider
I said see, what you have done now
Oh see, C. C. Rider

Come along, baby, don't want you to stop
Watching The River Flow lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by Bob Dylan)
What's the matter with me
I don't have much to say
Daylight sneakin' through the window
I'm still in this all-night cafe
Walkin' to and fro beneath the moon
Out where the trucks are rollin' slow
To sit down on this bank of sand
And watch the river flow
Wish I was back in the city
Instead of this old bank of sand
With the sun beating down on the chimney tops
And the one I love so close at hand
If I had wings and I could fly
I know where I would go
But right now I'll just sit here contentedly
And watch the river flow
People disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah
Makes you wonder why
Oh yesterday I saw someone on the street
Who just couldn't help but cry
Oh, this ol' river keeps on rollin', though
Whatever way the wind does blow
I just sit here
And watch the river flow
And people disagreeing on all just about everything, yeah
Makes you wanna stop and read a book
Only yesterday I saw someone on the street
Who was really shook
Oh, this ol' river keeps on rollin', though
Whatever way the wind does blow
As long as it does I'll just sit here
And watch the river flow
Yes as long as it does I'll just sit here
And watch the river flow
Let The Good Times Roll lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by Louis Jordan)
Hey, everybody, let's have some fun
You only live but once
And when you're dead you're done, so
Let the good time roll, I said let the good time roll
I don't care if you're young or old
Get together, let the good time roll
Don't sit there mumblin', talkin' trash
If you wanna have a ball
Get out and spend some cash, and
Let the good time roll, I'm talking about the good time
It make no difference if you're young or old
Let the good time roll
Oh yeah
Why don't tell everybody
Rocket's back in town
I got a dollar and a ring in the clock
Don't let nobody play me cheap
I got fifty cents more than I'm ever gonna keep, so
Let the good time roll, let the good time roll
Make no difference if you're young or old
Let the good time roll
No matter whether rainy weather
You wanna have a ball you gotta get yourself together
Let the good time roll
Dixie Chicken lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by Little Feat)
I've seen the bright lights of Memphis and the Commodore Hotel
And underneath a street lamp I met a Southern Belle
Well, she took me to the river where she casts her spell
And in that southern moonlight, she sang the song so well
If you'll be my Dixie Chicken, I'll be your Tennessee Lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
Well, we made all the hot spots, my money flowed like wine
Then that lowdown southern whiskey began to fog my mind
And I don't remember church bells or the money I put down
On the white picket fence and boardwalk of the house at the edge of town
But boy do I remember the strain of her refrain
And the nights we spent together, and the way she called my name
If you'll be my Dixie Chicken, I'll be your Tennessee Lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
Well, it's been a year since she ran away, guess that banjo player sure could play
She always liked to sing along, she's handy with a song
Then one night in the lobby of the Commodore Hotel
I chanced to meet a bartender who said he knew her well
And as he handed me a drink, he began to hum a song
And all the boys there at the bar began to sing along
If you'll be my Dixie Chicken, I'll be your Tennessee Lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
Shapes Of Things lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by The Yardbirds)
Shapes of things before my eyes
Just teach me to despise
Will time make men more wise?
Here within my lonely frame
My eyes just heard my brain
But will it seem the same?
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier
Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today?
Now the trees are almost green
But will they still be seen
When time and tide have been?
Fallin′ into your passing hands
Please don't destroy these lands
Don′t make them desert sands
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier
Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today?
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier
The Battle Of New Orleans lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by Johnny Horton)
Well, in 1814 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
We met the bloody British in a town in New Orleans
We fired our guns and the British kep a-comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We looked down a river
And we see'd the British come
And there must have been a hundred of'em
Beatin' on the drums
They stepped so high
And they made their bugles ring
We stood beside our cotton bales
And didn't say a thing
We fired our guns and the British kep a-comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Old Hickory said we could take 'em by surprise
If we didn't fire our muskets
'Till we looked 'em in the eyes
We held our fire
'Till we see'd their faces well
Then we opened up our squirrel guns
And really gave 'em - well we
Fired our guns and the British kep a-comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Yeah, they ran through the briars
And they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes
Where the rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast
That the hounds couldn't catch 'em
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down
So we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round
We filled his head with cannon balls, and powdered his behind
And when we touched the powder off the gator lost his mind
Yeah, they ran through the briars
And they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes
Where the rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast
That the hounds couldn't catch 'em
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We fired our guns and the British kep a-comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
To the Gulf of Mexico
To the Gulf of Mexico
Lucifer lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by Bob Seger)
We're cruisin' on the grey snakes till my dyin' day
Checkin' all the hen houses out along the way
Wastin' time, drinkin' wine
Life is short and I ain't lyin'
Livin' all I can through every day
You can call me Lucifer
If you think you should
I know I'm good
Every night I'm barrelhousin' till the moon is low
Shoutin' blues and payin' dues and throwin' way my dough
Ramblin', gamblin', lovin', shovin', probably won't end up with nothin'
At least I'll reap the seeds I sow
You can call me Lucifer
If you think you should
I know I'm good
Funky water farmers daughter gonna make the law
Lucy Blue, Chicago Green, I'll love 'em till they thaw
Courtin' all the lovely foxes, brunette, redheads, goldilocks
Takin' time to grind my crosscut saw
You can call me Lucifer
If you think you should
Now I know I'm good
White Room lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by Cream)
In a white room with black curtains near the station
Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
Silver horses run down moonbeams in your dark eyes
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves
You said no strings could secure you at the station
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows
I walked into such a sad time at the station
And as I walked out, felt my own need just beginning
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings
I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves
Caught In The Act lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by Freddie King / The Spencer Davis Group / The Yardbirds / The Allman Brothers Band / Booker T. & The MG's)
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Well my temperature is rising
And my feet on on the floor
Crazy people knocking
Cause I wanna sell some more
Let me in baby, cause I don't know what you got
But you better take it easy cause this place is so hot
And I'm
So glad we made it
So glad we made it
I want you to
Gimme some lovin
Gimme some lovin
Gimme some lovin everyday
Well I feel so good everything is getting hot
You better take some time cause this place is on fire
You better start baby, cause I have too much to do
We made it baby and it happened to you
And I'm
So glad we made it
So glad we made it
I want you to
Gimme some lovin everyday
Gimme some lovin everyday
Gimme some lovin every night
Throw My Bones lyrics - Deep Purple
I don't know what lies ahead
It's all a mystery man, I heard it said
You do your thing, you do your best
I take a guess at what happen next
All I've got is what I need
And that's enough, as far as I can see
Why should I walk into the great unknown
When I can sit here, and throw my bones
I hear the future is so divine
But I'll just wait until I get a sign
'Cause what I've got here, what I'm holding in my hand
Is better for me than some promised land
All I've got is what I need
And that's enough, as far as I can see
Why should I walk into the great unknown
When I can sit here and throw my bones
What's the rush, who's to say?
You can't escape tomorrow, it's another day
I'm hanging here, I'm here on solid ground
'Cause heaven's full, or closing down
All I've got is what I need
And that's enough, as far as I can see
Why should I walk into the great unknown
When I can sit here and throw my bones
Oh yeah
Drop The Weapon lyrics - Deep Purple
Everybody shouting, working up a sweat
Stepping over lines, you know what happened next
More trouble, than anyone can use
It's a pre-determined thing, you lose your right to choose
No way to turn it around
You got no more time, no time to calm yourself down
Once you press the button man it's coming to a head
Pretty soon babe you'll be a long time dead
Little brother I'm telling you now
Your pride can take a hit
Little brother take a deep breath
Cool off man, forget about it
Drop the weapon
Kick it away
Drop your gun
Look the other way
Drop the weapon
Live another day
Drop your blade
Listen, to what I say
Who you trying to impress, you making a bid
To be a big shot brother, but you're just a small kid
Now your reputation got a minor stain
It'll be washed away by tomorrow's rain
Little brother I'm telling you now
Your pride can take a hit
Little brother take a deep breath
Cool off man, forget about it
Drop the weapon
Kick it away
Drop your gun
Look the other way
Drop the weapon
Live another day
Drop your blade
Listen, to what I say
No sound of silence
Just streets of violence
We're in overload
Wrong side of the road
Oh San Francisco
Where the hell did you go
We have enough of that
Peace and love
Drop the weapon
Kick it away
Drop your gun
Look the other way
Drop the weapon
Live another day
Drop your blade
Listen, to what I say
No sound of silence
Just streets of violence
We're in overload
Wrong side of the road
Oh San Francisco
Where the hell did you go
We have enough of that
Peace and love
Come and hold my hand
Then we can all stand
And say a prayer
To someone out there
Anyone out there
We're All The Same In The Dark lyrics - Deep Purple
Baby won't you be my friend?
And love me right until the end
I don't care what shape you're in
What you've done or where you've been
I've got nothing to hide from you
We can sit and talk about the past
We don't need to tell the truth
To tell the truth now
We're all the same in the dark
Baby won't you be my friend?
And love me right until the end
I guess we'll never know
What happened down in Mexico
Like what I see, I like the view
We can stay as long as it lasts
There's no difference 'tween me and you
To tell the truth now
We're all the same in the dark
I don't need to see a doctor
I know exactly who I am
I'm just like you
Baby won't you be my friend?
And love me right until the end
You know, that fashion come and fashion go
Melting like the summer snow
I don't know what you see in me
Some would say that we're miles apart
But when everything is said and done, and the lights go down
We're all the same, we're all the same in the dark
Nothing At All lyrics - Deep Purple
I'm talking to myself again
And waving to a passing friend
I've known her since I don't know when
Ah, it's nothing at all
Just a few of us walk arm in arm
It's innocent and charming
But the children seem to be getting alarmed
Don't worry kids, it's nothing at all
When I hear about the doom and gloom
That's around the corner, and coming soon
I take a sip of mother's ruin
And sit with my back to the wall
It's nothing at all
Nothing at all
And the old lady smiled
It's nothing at all
Then she blew all the leaves off my tree
And the junk that sails our seven seas
Is very nearly up to my knees
But the platitudes and pleasantries
Keep saying it's nothing at all
I'll deal with it on another day
If I close my eyes it'll go away
So, bottoms up boys, and what do you say?
Really, it's nothing at all
It's nothing at all
Nothing at all
And the old lady smiled
It's nothing at all
And the summer passed away
Nothing at all
It's nothing at all
And the old lady smiled
It was nothing at all
Then she blew all the leaves off my tree
No Need To Shout lyrics - Deep Purple
You stand there on your soapbox without fear
Like a chanting wild demented auctioneer
It's just a bunch of crap
You're talking out your hat
And, I don't want you chewing off my ear
(No need to shout)
I'm hearing what you say
(No need to shout)
Just shut your mouth and go away
You preach to the converted, it's insane
We're here already swinging like a train
I can only hope, that you won't
Ram it down my throat
Don't make me swallow it again
(No need to shout)
Alright, I'm hearing what you say
(No need to shout)
No, no just shut your mouth and go away
Your manifesto, stuffed inside your suitcase
Blah, blah, blah you're never wrong
And even when you're stooping, tying up your shoelace
You keep droning on and on and on and on
I got your message loud and clear
The meaningless is ringing in my ear
Oh, what a bunch of trash
You got exuding from your ass
That's not the shit I want to hear
(No need to shout)
No need to shout
Man, I'm hearing what you say
(No need to shout)
No, no, wrap it up
On your way
(No need to shout)
Woo-ooh-ooh (No need to shout)
No, no just shut your mouth and go away
Step By Step lyrics - Deep Purple
Step by step
Rattle through the night
Don't look now
There's no end in sight
Step by step
Moving on, through the graveyard shift
No way out
That's the truth, 'bout the size of it
Inch by inch
Shuffle through the heat
Stay in time
Don't you miss a beat
Inch by inch
Stay in line never dance alone
Stand close
Holding on to a bag of bones
Worming your way into my life
Little by little we're getting too tight
Taking me over and stealing my soul
Oh oh, stealing my soul
Step by step
Step by step
What The What lyrics - Deep Purple
We goin' out tomorrow, gonna do it right
Celebrate the fact that we're still alive
In that case, we better make it tonight
I'll drink for us all and you can drive
My mojo working, I paid my dues
I'm gonna break out my dancing shoes
I'm gonna do what I do best
I'm gonna spend my money till there's nothing left
So bad
I've been so bad
I've been so bad
What the what happened to you last night?
Every bar in London had an old Joanna
And cats who could play rock and roll piano
No one cared a few teeth gone missing
Everybody got up to sing
Five string guitars and old skin drums
On a river boat shuffle, bunch-a drunken bums
No way of knowing when the temperature dropped
The moment was hot, there was no time to stop
So bad
We were so bad
We been so bad
What the what happened to you last night?
Long, tall, Sally and short, fat, Dave
Arms and legs going every-ways
They didn't care about shape or size
The fever of love was in their eyes
Called every bad name under the sun
They did the same to us, we was just having fun
He went up and she went down
It didn't really matter, they just went to town
So bad
They were so bad
They been so bad
What the what happened to you last night?
I was so bad
I been so bad
I been so bad
What the what happened to you last night?
The Long Way Round lyrics - Deep Purple
You can't get me down
I got the "Things are looking up" blues
I know it happens
But it never sticks to my shoes
It's been a long time coming
I never thought it would last
I think about the future
Who knows what might have happened in the past?
And nothing is real
But it feels pretty good all the same
I know you from somewhere
But I can't remember your name
I don't need much space
But you don't have to step on my toes
I was looking over there
And all the time it was under my nose
I should have known
Which way the wind was blowin'
I was facing the wrong way
Always taking the long way round
Never looking the right way
Always going the wrong way
Always taking the long way round
Never looking the right way
Always going the wrong way
Always taking the long way round
You can reel me in slowly and surely
But there's a catch to this deal
It's not over yet
I get one more spin of the wheel
I promised myself
I would not get trashed again
But the way I'm feeling right now
That promise is going down the drain, yeah
I should have known
You were coming and I was gone
I was facing the wrong way
Always taking the long way round
The Power Of The Moon lyrics - Deep Purple
Who am I to say things may not all be what they seem?
And how can I disturb the facts of life?
And who am I to speak about the fabric of a dream?
And who's to say that dreams cannot be right?
It's the power of the moon
The power
Who am I to talk about the lunacy at hand?
Burnishing the madness in my head
And who am I to mention that before it all began
Everything I heard was never said at all?
It's the power of the moon
The power
Ah, it's a green balloon that travels so benign
On a path that goes along the shoreline
Ah, it's a green balloon that travels so benign
It's the only thing that's keeping me in line
Oh, the tides will rise and then they fall on time
And everything on earth begins to rhyme
Man Alive lyrics - Deep Purple
Sun sets in the West
The boy has gone to rest
Mama clutch her breast
All creatures great and small
Graze on blood red soil
And grass that grows on city streets
It's been a quiet town
Since the juice went down
Now something's washed up on the beach
A man alive
After some thousands of years
Fewer than the smallest imaginable intake of breath
The wisest guys in the evolution of humanity became extinct
Mother Nature loves a vacuum
And so, the earth was cleansed
In no time at all
All creatures great and small
Graze on blood red soil
And grass that grows on city streets
It's been a quiet town
Until the word got round
And something washed up on the beach
A man alive
A man alone
Washed up on the beach
Just a man
Whoosh
Dancing In My Sleep lyrics - Deep Purple
I'm flying through the night
To the rhythm of the street
I don't know what happened, baby
But my blood rise every time we meet
I come alive
I get the feeling everything will be alright
Lights are pure magenta
There's something going down
I don't know what happened, babe
I'm in the right place, my feet don't touch the ground
To my surprise
I'm all alone
Dancing in my sleep
Oh-yeah, dancing in my sleep
Don't you love my fancy footwork
I ain't no Fred Astaire
I can tap into your life, babe
I can take you anywhere
I come alive
Oh, yes I do
I get the feeling (Ahh-ha-ahh)
I come alive (Oh-whoa)
And when I get the feeling, I'm dancing in my sleep
Dancing in my sleep
I'm dancing in my sleep
I'm dancing in my sleep
Strange Kind Of Woman lyrics - Deep Purple
There once was a woman
A strange kind of woman
The kind that gets written down in history
Her name was Nancy
Her face was nothing fancy
She left a trail of happiness and misery
I loved her
Everybody loved her
She loved everyone and gave them good return
I tried to take her
I even tried to break her
She said, "I ain't for takin' won't you ever learn"
I want you, I need you, I got to be near you
I spent my money as I took my turn
I want you, I need you, I got to be near you
Ooh, I got a strange kind of woman
She looked like a raver
But I could never please her
On Wednesday mornings boy, you can't go far
I couldn't get her
But things got better, she said
"Saturday nights from now on baby, you're my star"
I want you, I need you, I got to be near you
I spent my money as I took my turn
I want you, I need you, I got to be near you
Ooh, I got a strange kind of woman
She's my soul, I love you
I want you, I need you, I got to be near you
I spent my money as I took my turn
I want you, I need you, I got to be near you
Ooh, I got a strange kind of woman
She finally said she loved me
I wed her in a hurry
No more callers and I glowed with pride
I'm dreaming
I feel like screaming
I won my woman just before she died
I want you, I need you, I got to be near you
I spent my money as I took my turn
I want you, I need you, I got to be near you
Ooh, I got a strange kind of woman
Who do you think you are?
Superstar
Who do you think you are?
Superstar
Superstar
Who do we think we are?
Oh my soul, I love you baby
Time For Bedlam lyrics - Deep Purple
Descending the cold steps of the institution for the politically insane
Never to be seen again
Saying farewell to daylight
From henceforth I shall rot in a stinking bed of wet straw
Right from the ashes of life I learned to behave
What to believe, what not to say, from cradle to grave
Ah..... like a good little slave
Sucking my milk from the venomous tit of the state
This clearly designed to suppress every thought of escape
Ah..... I surrender to fate
No pity, no pity
Don't want no pity for me in this filthy ceil
I'll see you in hell
See you in hell
Frozen in time, I'm a specimen pinned to my throne
With an army of butterflies pilloried placid and prone
Ah..... we were never alone
No pity, no pity
Don't want no pity for me in this filthy ceil
I'll see you in hell
After centuries of living with nothing but my convictions
Broken fingers clawing through the walls of my incarceration
Escaping the clutches of eternal damnation
I was justified
Never to be seen again
Saying farewell to daylight
From henceforth I shall rot in a stinking bed of wet straw
Right from the ashes of life I learned to behave
What to believe, what not to say, from cradle to grave
Ah..... like a good little slave
Sucking my milk from the venomous tit of the state
This clearly designed to suppress every thought of escape
Ah..... I surrender to fate
No pity, no pity
Don't want no pity for me in this filthy ceil
I'll see you in hell
See you in hell
Frozen in time, I'm a specimen pinned to my throne
With an army of butterflies pilloried placid and prone
Ah..... we were never alone
No pity, no pity
Don't want no pity for me in this filthy ceil
I'll see you in hell
After centuries of living with nothing but my convictions
Broken fingers clawing through the walls of my incarceration
Escaping the clutches of eternal damnation
I was justified
Hip Boots lyrics - Deep Purple
You can bury me up to my knees in shit
Or anything else... I don't mind a bit
You think I'm gonna drown but you're wrong
'Cos man I got my hip boots on
Get your ass in the water and swim like me
It's the only way you're going free
If you blink an eye I'm down the road and gone
It's plain to see that I don't belong
I got my hip boots on
And it's so cool
It's beautiful
Those rusty chains can't tie me down
'Cos man I got my hip boots on
I never give it up
Tear it up
Rip it up
Can't get enough
Oh yeah...
Before that shit starts going down
When I hear the dogs I go to ground
That's me high steppin' through the swamp
That's why I got these hip boots on
I got my hip boots on
It's so cool
It's beautiful
And it's so cool
Or anything else... I don't mind a bit
You think I'm gonna drown but you're wrong
'Cos man I got my hip boots on
Get your ass in the water and swim like me
It's the only way you're going free
If you blink an eye I'm down the road and gone
It's plain to see that I don't belong
I got my hip boots on
And it's so cool
It's beautiful
Those rusty chains can't tie me down
'Cos man I got my hip boots on
I never give it up
Tear it up
Rip it up
Can't get enough
Oh yeah...
Before that shit starts going down
When I hear the dogs I go to ground
That's me high steppin' through the swamp
That's why I got these hip boots on
I got my hip boots on
It's so cool
It's beautiful
And it's so cool
All I Got Is You lyrics - Deep Purple
Oh yeah, I see the way you roll your eyes, the way your purse your lips
Throw your stuff into a suitcase, put your hands upon your hips
I'm not moved by your evil glare, the way you toss your hair
You make stupid accusations by which time I've lost the thread
Sometimes I wonder how it is you get to piss me off this much
I may be heavier handed and I like the tender touch
You moan and groan about me staying out and drinking with the guys
I bet I bring them home try this one for size
Something awfully wrong with this deal babe
Any fool could see its true
Can't you understand how I feel babe
You got me, but all I got is you
I guess I just don't have it in me, to keep you satisfied
To be honest with you babe, I'm only in it for the ride
And you may never bring yourself to take me as I am
But in case you hadn't noticed, I don't give a fucking damn!
Throw your stuff into a suitcase, put your hands upon your hips
I'm not moved by your evil glare, the way you toss your hair
You make stupid accusations by which time I've lost the thread
Sometimes I wonder how it is you get to piss me off this much
I may be heavier handed and I like the tender touch
You moan and groan about me staying out and drinking with the guys
I bet I bring them home try this one for size
Something awfully wrong with this deal babe
Any fool could see its true
Can't you understand how I feel babe
You got me, but all I got is you
I guess I just don't have it in me, to keep you satisfied
To be honest with you babe, I'm only in it for the ride
And you may never bring yourself to take me as I am
But in case you hadn't noticed, I don't give a fucking damn!
One Night In Vegas lyrics - Deep Purple
Ooh what a night it was, the night I fell apart
I begged a lover not to go away but she went and broke my heart
I found myself in a Vegas bar with a whole new set of friends
Seen through the bottom of an empty glass
Like looking through a fisheye lens
One night in Vegas
It was a morning of revenge for what I did the night before
Which accompanied me to the following day to even up the score
In a stone cold sober mood next afternoon at ten
I found my tongue back in my mouth
And I told myself not to drink again
One night in Vegas
I was three sheets to the wind
The three shots did me in
Three angels there above me
As I was lying on the floor
I knew I should have run for the hills
But I still wanted more
I don't remember the chapel but I woke up with a wife
I looked at her, she looked at me and now we're hooked for life
How strange the situation, it's now been thirty years
Since I met that girl in Vegas
And would you believe it, she's still here
One night in Vegas
Oh yeah I gotta tell you, one night in Vegas
Get Me Outta Here lyrics - Deep Purple
Well I'm out of work, out of hope
I got mouths to feed and I'm stony broke
The rum's all gone and I could sure use a smoke
I can't help thinking how it used to be
Everybody danced 'til a quarter to three
Living on the wild side, getting our kicks
How'd I ever end up in a place like this? Oh...
Get me out of here
Somebody get me outta here
Three blind bastards parked on a bench
One said to the other hey who's your friend
That's how it started way back when
A shit-load of ways to communicate
One hates love, another loves hate
Now you're gonna tell me there's no end in sight
Next thing you know we're getting ready to fight, oh...
Get me out of here
Get me outta here
I got to tell you that I'm feeling rough
Been good to know you but I've had enough
You say pull yourself together and get a grip
You can stick it up your jacksie 'cos I'm jumping ship, oh...
Get me out of here
I got mouths to feed and I'm stony broke
The rum's all gone and I could sure use a smoke
I can't help thinking how it used to be
Everybody danced 'til a quarter to three
Living on the wild side, getting our kicks
How'd I ever end up in a place like this? Oh...
Get me out of here
Somebody get me outta here
Three blind bastards parked on a bench
One said to the other hey who's your friend
That's how it started way back when
A shit-load of ways to communicate
One hates love, another loves hate
Now you're gonna tell me there's no end in sight
Next thing you know we're getting ready to fight, oh...
Get me out of here
Get me outta here
I got to tell you that I'm feeling rough
Been good to know you but I've had enough
You say pull yourself together and get a grip
You can stick it up your jacksie 'cos I'm jumping ship, oh...
Get me out of here
The Surprising lyrics - Deep Purple
It wasn't quite the curse of Tutankhamen
Or the kiss of death from Judas in the night
And it felt so far beyond the blue horizon
Tempting me with transports of delight
And when the devil took my hand and said
Come along with me
There I was, wide awake and dreaming
Reaching out for something in the sky
But I could not control that trembling feeling
Everything I want is slipping by
And when the devil took my hand and said
Something you should see
I never knew what happened to my nightmare
Everything went dark that August day
And the eclipse was on the other side of somewhere
But I was on the upside of afraid
And then an angel took my hand and said
Come along with me
Or the kiss of death from Judas in the night
And it felt so far beyond the blue horizon
Tempting me with transports of delight
And when the devil took my hand and said
Come along with me
There I was, wide awake and dreaming
Reaching out for something in the sky
But I could not control that trembling feeling
Everything I want is slipping by
And when the devil took my hand and said
Something you should see
I never knew what happened to my nightmare
Everything went dark that August day
And the eclipse was on the other side of somewhere
But I was on the upside of afraid
And then an angel took my hand and said
Come along with me
Johnny's Band lyrics - Deep Purple
Johnny Jones woke up one day from dreaming
Told Bill the bass and soon they had a plan
He passed it on to Pete and Crazy Benny
Ah, suddenly they had a band
Hey Johnny's Band
He sure knew how to work up a crowd
The sound that they made put the rest in the shade
And the word soon got around
They played every dance hall in the city
Wrote themselves a cool forty-five
With a bullet it shot to the top of the pops
Oh man it was good to be alive
Hail Johnny's Band
Hear them on the radio
Smash after smash now they're rolling in the cash
Whatever they touch turns to gold
Benny went down with the hard stuff
And Pete joined a cult in LA
Johnny and Bill started going downhill
And the crowds began melting away
But hey, it's Johnny's Band
Playing Saturday nights at The Crown
The beards may be long and the money's long gone
It's a wonder that they're still around
But hey, it's Johnny's Band
Playing all those wonderful songs
Making the rounds with that old fashioned sound
And here we are singing along
Told Bill the bass and soon they had a plan
He passed it on to Pete and Crazy Benny
Ah, suddenly they had a band
Hey Johnny's Band
He sure knew how to work up a crowd
The sound that they made put the rest in the shade
And the word soon got around
They played every dance hall in the city
Wrote themselves a cool forty-five
With a bullet it shot to the top of the pops
Oh man it was good to be alive
Hail Johnny's Band
Hear them on the radio
Smash after smash now they're rolling in the cash
Whatever they touch turns to gold
Benny went down with the hard stuff
And Pete joined a cult in LA
Johnny and Bill started going downhill
And the crowds began melting away
But hey, it's Johnny's Band
Playing Saturday nights at The Crown
The beards may be long and the money's long gone
It's a wonder that they're still around
But hey, it's Johnny's Band
Playing all those wonderful songs
Making the rounds with that old fashioned sound
And here we are singing along
On Top Of The World lyrics - Deep Purple
Hot summer night, the working girls were on their way back home
It was getting late so I tagged along, couldn't let them walk alone
I followed them up some greasy steps to a rooftop in the sky
No walls around just a sea of stars, my throat was getting dry
Everyone could feel the heat that's why we all disrobed
Our clothes and inhibitions went off flying 'cross the globe
Dancing crazy getting loose and closer to the edge
I could feel my blood was up and it was pounding in my head
So there I was, just me and the girls
Under the moonlight on top of the world
So there I was, just me and the girls
Under the moonlight on top of the world
As things were dying down we retreated from the precipice
I lay beside the most beautiful girl in the universe
Her name was Venus in Heaven
She fed me rice and offered me wine
I accepted ambrosia and nectar
From an amber goddess
I collapsed between the thighs of Morpheus
Next thing I felt was a sharp pain of sunrise
My mouth was open and full of rice
As I managed to prize open one of my eyes
I saw Luigi the cockroach carry off his prize
And there lay Venus still sprawled out and naked for sure
But not quite what she was the night before
I made my excuses and left through the door
Stepped into space at the twentieth floor
And that's why I don't like heights no more
It was getting late so I tagged along, couldn't let them walk alone
I followed them up some greasy steps to a rooftop in the sky
No walls around just a sea of stars, my throat was getting dry
Everyone could feel the heat that's why we all disrobed
Our clothes and inhibitions went off flying 'cross the globe
Dancing crazy getting loose and closer to the edge
I could feel my blood was up and it was pounding in my head
So there I was, just me and the girls
Under the moonlight on top of the world
So there I was, just me and the girls
Under the moonlight on top of the world
As things were dying down we retreated from the precipice
I lay beside the most beautiful girl in the universe
Her name was Venus in Heaven
She fed me rice and offered me wine
I accepted ambrosia and nectar
From an amber goddess
I collapsed between the thighs of Morpheus
Next thing I felt was a sharp pain of sunrise
My mouth was open and full of rice
As I managed to prize open one of my eyes
I saw Luigi the cockroach carry off his prize
And there lay Venus still sprawled out and naked for sure
But not quite what she was the night before
I made my excuses and left through the door
Stepped into space at the twentieth floor
And that's why I don't like heights no more
Birds Of Prey lyrics - Deep Purple
Alarm bells ringing clear
Break the calm before the fall
Bad news travels at the speed of flight
Good news not at all
And here we are again
Playing endless games of war
Birds of prey
Without a word of warning
We dive in to attack
Vengeful and self-righteous
We turn the blue sky black
And a wretched few escape
They'll be forever looking back
At our sacrifice
And the golden sun is rising
At the dawn of a beautiful day
In the name of all that's holy
In the name of history
In the face of life and nature
We are driven by belief
Our faith a crumbling fortress
Once perfect and sublime
Will fail again and rise again
Until the death
Until the death of time
Break the calm before the fall
Bad news travels at the speed of flight
Good news not at all
And here we are again
Playing endless games of war
Birds of prey
Without a word of warning
We dive in to attack
Vengeful and self-righteous
We turn the blue sky black
And a wretched few escape
They'll be forever looking back
At our sacrifice
And the golden sun is rising
At the dawn of a beautiful day
In the name of all that's holy
In the name of history
In the face of life and nature
We are driven by belief
Our faith a crumbling fortress
Once perfect and sublime
Will fail again and rise again
Until the death
Until the death of time
Roadhouse Blues lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by The Doors)
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Yeah, we're going to the roadhouse
We're gonna have a real
Good time
Back at the roadhouse, some bungalows
Yeah, back at the roadhouse they got some bungalows
And that's for the people

Let it roll, baby, roll
All night long
A Simple Song lyrics - Deep Purple
Time, it does not matter
But time is all we have
To think about, think about
Road, it has no end
Crossroads every turn
So it goes, so it goes
Once you sang
A simple song
Got confused
Went on too long
Why does the promise fade
You lie on the bed you make
Stranger than fiction
Further from the truth
Beyond imagination
Those seeds have taken root
Wild as a dream could be
From black and white
To blue and red
Golden circles
Flow above your head
Once you sang
A simple song
You got confused
And now it’s gone
Once you sang
A simple song
It all went wrong
Time, it does not matter
Time is all we have
But time is all we have
To think about, think about
Road, it has no end
Crossroads every turn
So it goes, so it goes
Once you sang
A simple song
Got confused
Went on too long
Why does the promise fade
You lie on the bed you make
Stranger than fiction
Further from the truth
Beyond imagination
Those seeds have taken root
Wild as a dream could be
From black and white
To blue and red
Golden circles
Flow above your head
Once you sang
A simple song
You got confused
And now it’s gone
Once you sang
A simple song
It all went wrong
Time, it does not matter
Time is all we have
Weirdistan lyrics - Deep Purple
We travelled through time and we’re on the stretcher’s end
We’re all from up north and I live in Wonderland
Dear neighbor of mine was centuries, light years apart
You carry no flame, you’re visible in the dark
Bring it across the border, all those people are waiting flags
Some of them need a few rich men but I can’t prove that something holds me back
The man in the moon is looking the other way
And while he’s distracted we turn to another page
No questions or guilt, it seems like we’re just out of say
You do what you will, I’ll do another thing
Imagine when we’ll wake up
Scratching here, everything’s changed
While you spray here with it
You’ll know reality’s been rearranged
It’s beautiful
Oh yes, it’s beautiful
Oh yes, we merge into one
It’s beautiful
Oh yes, it’s beautiful
It’s beautiful
Oh yes, it’s beautiful
Beautiful
We’re all from up north and I live in Wonderland
Dear neighbor of mine was centuries, light years apart
You carry no flame, you’re visible in the dark
Bring it across the border, all those people are waiting flags
Some of them need a few rich men but I can’t prove that something holds me back
The man in the moon is looking the other way
And while he’s distracted we turn to another page
No questions or guilt, it seems like we’re just out of say
You do what you will, I’ll do another thing
Imagine when we’ll wake up

It’s beautiful
Oh yes, it’s beautiful
Oh yes, we merge into one
It’s beautiful
Oh yes, it’s beautiful

Out Of Hand lyrics - Deep Purple
Shiny silver faces, coloured paper falling into their hand.
Never to be seen again it must have been a one night stand.
Up until the dawn I could have sworn that everything was alright.
Thieving bastards stole my life and legged it off into the night.
It's a dirty business it's a dirty game.
Everybody different but they're all the same.
They draw you in you hear a siren call.
Build you up so they can see you fall.
You've seen it all before.
Been there since time began.
You know what's coming next.
Everything gets out of hand.
They've got the lot and god knows what they think that the deserve even more.
Psychopathic tendencies, they've got a lot of answer for.
Scratch my back and I'll stab Yours, no wonder it's a universal sickness.
Who are they, you well might ask, come with me and you can be my whitness.
It's a dirty business it's a crying shame.
You blink your eye and all the laws have changed.
They draw you in you hear a siren call.
Build you up so they can see you fall.
You've seen it all before.
Been there since time began.
You know what's coming next.
Everything gets out of hand.
It's a dirty business it's crying shame.
You blink your eye and all the laws have changed.
They say the vulture is a bird of prey.
No-one told me it would come this way.
You seen it all before.
Been there since time began.
You know what's coming next.
Everything, everything gets out of hand
Never to be seen again it must have been a one night stand.
Up until the dawn I could have sworn that everything was alright.
Thieving bastards stole my life and legged it off into the night.
It's a dirty business it's a dirty game.
Everybody different but they're all the same.
They draw you in you hear a siren call.
Build you up so they can see you fall.
You've seen it all before.
Been there since time began.
You know what's coming next.

Hell To Pay lyrics - Deep Purple
Big Betty or Two-tone Annie his hair was never right
He used to be cool with a glint in his eye but he lost it overnight
Spinning would change and things are rearranged and then Annie says to me
Nothing wrong with the way it was that's the way it's meant to be...
Up the revolution we're all prepared to die
Up the revolution that was the battle cry
There's gonna be Hell, Hell to pay
There's gonna be Hell, Hell to pay
Annie was a die-hard rebel in the good old days of way back when
The cigarette was cool and all the kids in school could read and count to ten
Annie once said he had a few to bribe of that there was no doubt
He never could make us understand what the rebellion was all about...
Up the revolution we're all prepared to die
Up the revolution that was the battle cry
There's gonna be Hell, yeah, Hell to pay
There's gonna be Hell, Hell to pay
Two-tone Annie drew up battle plans for making love not war
Everybody laughed at the fighting in the streets and behind the garden door
It came to nothing when it all went down and the band began to play
Another plan put your head in the sand live to fight another day...
Up the revolution we're all prepared to die
Up the revolution that was the battle cry
There's gonna be Hell, Hell to pay
There's gonna be Hell, Hell to pay
There's gonna be Hell, Hell to pay
There's gonna be Hell
He used to be cool with a glint in his eye but he lost it overnight
Spinning would change and things are rearranged and then Annie says to me
Nothing wrong with the way it was that's the way it's meant to be...
Up the revolution we're all prepared to die
Up the revolution that was the battle cry
There's gonna be Hell, Hell to pay
There's gonna be Hell, Hell to pay
Annie was a die-hard rebel in the good old days of way back when
The cigarette was cool and all the kids in school could read and count to ten
Annie once said he had a few to bribe of that there was no doubt
He never could make us understand what the rebellion was all about...
Up the revolution we're all prepared to die
Up the revolution that was the battle cry
There's gonna be Hell, yeah, Hell to pay

Up the revolution that was the battle cry

There's gonna be Hell, Hell to pay
There's gonna be Hell, Hell to pay
There's gonna be Hell
Bodyline lyrics - Deep Purple
I’ve been watching you dancing all night long
Your legs go on forever
Exquisite synchronicity, they never stayed together
My head’s spinning, keeping focused on my mind and building this
I don’t know who you are but I’m enslaved to make your service
Makes you fall in line
A moving silhouette
It’s your body line
You do that thing you read
Make you fall in line
Clearly defined
It’s your body line
A perfect outline, so divine
Chilling to half it must’ve been hazy
Smoking my eye a poppin
Fight for your country, you got something to gain
No one but Mike Jones driving
Girl come in and out, my excuse to get me is in danger
No will but that’s like just emptied it
Wouldn’t wanna be disillusion
Makes you fall in line
So heavenly ashamed
It’s your body line
My oh my, oh my, oh my
Make you fall in line
A perfect outline, so divine
Body line
When we’re moving, connection
Well bring me to the main view
It seems to want distraction
But what I need
Makes you fall in line
A moving silhouette
It’s your body line
You do that thing you read
Make you fall in line
Clearly defined
It’s your body line, body line
A perfect outline, so divine
Your legs go on forever
Exquisite synchronicity, they never stayed together
My head’s spinning, keeping focused on my mind and building this
I don’t know who you are but I’m enslaved to make your service
Makes you fall in line
A moving silhouette
It’s your body line
You do that thing you read
Make you fall in line
Clearly defined
It’s your body line
A perfect outline, so divine
Chilling to half it must’ve been hazy
Smoking my eye a poppin
Fight for your country, you got something to gain
No one but Mike Jones driving
Girl come in and out, my excuse to get me is in danger
No will but that’s like just emptied it
Wouldn’t wanna be disillusion
Makes you fall in line
So heavenly ashamed
It’s your body line
My oh my, oh my, oh my
Make you fall in line
A perfect outline, so divine
Body line
When we’re moving, connection
Well bring me to the main view
It seems to want distraction
But what I need
Makes you fall in line
A moving silhouette
It’s your body line
You do that thing you read
Make you fall in line
Clearly defined
It’s your body line, body line
A perfect outline, so divine
Above And Beyond lyrics - Deep Purple
Light turn the candle
I spark one for me
Let it float on the water
Right down to the sea
You draw back your curtain
A wavy goodbye
Lift up your arms
And look up to the sky
To the sky!
Stop me a candle
And keep it in the light
Thought it pairing window
And I come back tonight
You touch me in the darkness
I send you a sign
A give me your loving
And I’ll give you mine
I’m maybe leaving
But I won’t be gone
I’ll be there when you want me
Above and beyond
You’re fading like I tell you
It’s all up to you
I’ll be there if you’ll need me
If I get it through
Reached on your settlers
And tomorrow you’ll find
Your souls had been touched
Are forever entwined
I’m maybe leaving
But I won’t be gone
I’ll be there when you want me
Above and beyond
Yes I’m maybe leaving
But not for too long
I’ll be there when you want me
Above and beyond
I spark one for me
Let it float on the water
Right down to the sea
You draw back your curtain
A wavy goodbye
Lift up your arms
And look up to the sky
To the sky!
Stop me a candle
And keep it in the light
Thought it pairing window
And I come back tonight
You touch me in the darkness
I send you a sign
A give me your loving
And I’ll give you mine
I’m maybe leaving
But I won’t be gone
I’ll be there when you want me
Above and beyond
You’re fading like I tell you
It’s all up to you
I’ll be there if you’ll need me
If I get it through
Reached on your settlers
And tomorrow you’ll find
Your souls had been touched
Are forever entwined
I’m maybe leaving
But I won’t be gone
I’ll be there when you want me
Above and beyond
Yes I’m maybe leaving
But not for too long
I’ll be there when you want me
Above and beyond
Blood From A Stone lyrics - Deep Purple
In the shadow of the whole
Where my door used to be
You never give up, you want more out of me
Come on in, help yourself
Scratch around over these empty shelves
There’s nothing else that I can see except a string of these in some old bowery
You rip flesh from a bone
You sip blood from a stone
I will consider a life of crime
So I can feed these kids of mine
And should I fall down, should I fail
I’ll spend the rest of my days in some stinking jail
I won’t know who left me to your side
Stripped of my dignity low and dry
You rip flesh from a bone
You sip blood from a stone
Uh that’s damn nothing
Uh, I don’t care
You rob me blind without a gun
How can you sleep after what you’ve done?
There’s nothing but darkness deep in your soul
There’s no reflection, it’s dark and it’s cold
[x2]
You rip flesh from a bone
You sip blood from a stone
Where my door used to be
You never give up, you want more out of me
Come on in, help yourself
Scratch around over these empty shelves
There’s nothing else that I can see except a string of these in some old bowery
You rip flesh from a bone
You sip blood from a stone
I will consider a life of crime
So I can feed these kids of mine
And should I fall down, should I fail
I’ll spend the rest of my days in some stinking jail
I won’t know who left me to your side
Stripped of my dignity low and dry
You rip flesh from a bone
You sip blood from a stone
Uh that’s damn nothing
Uh, I don’t care
You rob me blind without a gun
How can you sleep after what you’ve done?
There’s nothing but darkness deep in your soul
There’s no reflection, it’s dark and it’s cold
[x2]
You rip flesh from a bone
You sip blood from a stone
Uncommon Man lyrics - Deep Purple
Our days fall together in time
You said you can’t have it all
Beast and the broom, I have that kind of feeling
It’s got to be twenty foot tall
But the man
Is still alive
Oh, oh, oh
It’s good to be king
Standing together again
Everyone is starting to sway
I wanna hit all the clubs to the sky
Oh, it’s a fabulous day
If I’m back
It’s walk and talk
Oh, oh, oh
It’s good to be king
It’s good to be king
By the way,
The carriage is waiting
To take yo away
If you let all the fear right in
We’d never betray you
Believe what you see
It’s late as enticing, drift away
It’s good to be king
It’s good to be king
It’s good to be king
Yea, it’s good to be king
You said you can’t have it all
Beast and the broom, I have that kind of feeling
It’s got to be twenty foot tall
But the man
Is still alive
Oh, oh, oh
It’s good to be king
Standing together again
Everyone is starting to sway
I wanna hit all the clubs to the sky
Oh, it’s a fabulous day
If I’m back
It’s walk and talk
Oh, oh, oh
It’s good to be king
It’s good to be king
By the way,
The carriage is waiting
To take yo away
If you let all the fear right in
We’d never betray you
Believe what you see
It’s late as enticing, drift away
It’s good to be king
It’s good to be king
It’s good to be king
Yea, it’s good to be king
Après Vous lyrics - Deep Purple
Should’ve been there to start the game
To witness why I was in
Me still the usual bow, got the awesome right ahead
Well that’s just to bring, you understand the prospect of our mission
Nothing could possibly go alright til we lost out inhibition
Then we hit the lights
Maybe we should bring the girl that is
There’s nothing about it
Another world
While you go ahead, I’ll clench my thirst
Après vous, so go first
Things got new since we tend to do
We’ll liquefy the future
We just played our skills in romance
In the art of self-delusion
We went from chosen few, our confidence grew
It depends on where you’re standing
It’s not much you think
It’s only a blink between takeoff and landing
Then we hit the lights
Maybe we should bring the girl that is
There’s nothing about it
Another world
While you go ahead, I’ll clench my thirst
Après vous, so go first
Uh, come on man
Feel the boot turn
If it’s a burst, so what can you do?
Yes I know that she wants me too
But I can’t jump the queue so après vous
While you go ahead, I’ll clench my thirst
Après vous!
To witness why I was in

All The Time In The World lyrics - Deep Purple
There's still a long way to go
And the nights are closing in
But if I'd travelled any faster babe
Lord knows where I might have been
Right from those early days
I put my faith in the axle not the wheels
Like old Zeno's toytus
with Achilles snapping at my heels
Don't worry
There's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world
I could have been a high-flying dealer
But I have no desire for speed
I could have been a wild receiver
But I've got everything I need
And so I watch the world
Go racing by tearing up the street
I lay back in the long grass
Take it easy and rest my feet
Don't worry
You know, there's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world
No-one ever held me back
You know that no-one ever put me in chains
No-one ever saw me racing ahead
No-one had to tug on my reins
As everybody knows
I may be slow but I never quit
Sometimes on a good day I sit and think
Sometimes I just sit
Don't worry
Relax, there's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world
And the nights are closing in
But if I'd travelled any faster babe
Lord knows where I might have been
Right from those early days
I put my faith in the axle not the wheels
Like old Zeno's toytus
with Achilles snapping at my heels
Don't worry
There's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world
I could have been a high-flying dealer
But I have no desire for speed
I could have been a wild receiver
But I've got everything I need
And so I watch the world
Go racing by tearing up the street
I lay back in the long grass
Take it easy and rest my feet
Don't worry
You know, there's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world
No-one ever held me back
You know that no-one ever put me in chains
No-one ever saw me racing ahead
No-one had to tug on my reins
As everybody knows
I may be slow but I never quit
Sometimes on a good day I sit and think
Sometimes I just sit
Don't worry
Relax, there's no hurry
Here we are
With all the time in the world
Vincent Price lyrics - Deep Purple
Lightning smashing on heavy like beat
Excuse me the diff but I just can’t wait
Deep in a dungeon that’s rattling the chains
Man got to fight, he’s gonna eat my brain
It feels so good to be afraid
Vincent Price is back again
The heart pumping now, the music sound of time
The vampire’s dying, he’s got him wild
Red blood dripping, she doesn’t have a prayer
I know it’s not real but I just don’t care
It feels so good to be afraid
Vincent Price is back again
I want seven screaming virgins on a sacrificial altar
Hell and God, screeching doors, zombies, aaaaah!
Excuse me the diff but I just can’t wait
Deep in a dungeon that’s rattling the chains
Man got to fight, he’s gonna eat my brain
It feels so good to be afraid
Vincent Price is back again
The heart pumping now, the music sound of time
The vampire’s dying, he’s got him wild
Red blood dripping, she doesn’t have a prayer
I know it’s not real but I just don’t care
It feels so good to be afraid
Vincent Price is back again
I want seven screaming virgins on a sacrificial altar
Hell and God, screeching doors, zombies, aaaaah!
It'll Be Me lyrics - Deep Purple
(originally by Jerry Lee Lewis)
Well, if you hear somebody knockin' on your door
If you see something crawlin' across the floor
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you
If you see a head a-peepin' from a crawdad hole
If you see somebody climbin' up a telephone pole
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you
Gonna look on the mountain and in the deep blue sea
Gonna search all the forests and look and look in every tree
Well, if you feel somethin' heavy on your fishing hook
If you see a funny face in your comic book
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you
If you hear a thought a-callin' out in the night
If you see somebody hangin' from a lamppost bright
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you
If you see somebody lookin' in all the cars
If you see a rocketship on its way to Mars
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you
Gonna look in the city where the lights are blue
Gonna search the countryside, all the haystacks, too
If you see a new face on a totem pole
If you find a lump in your sugar bowl
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you.
Well, if you hear somebody knockin' on your door
If you see something crawlin' across the floor
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you
If you see a head a-peepin' from a crawdad hole
If you see somebody climbin' up a telephone pole
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you
Gonna look on the mountain and in the deep blue sea
Gonna search all the forests and look and look in every tree
Well, if you feel somethin' heavy on your fishing hook
If you see a funny face in your comic book
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you
If you hear a thought a-callin' out in the night
If you see somebody hangin' from a lamppost bright

If you see somebody lookin' in all the cars
If you see a rocketship on its way to Mars
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you
Gonna look in the city where the lights are blue
Gonna search the countryside, all the haystacks, too
If you see a new face on a totem pole
If you find a lump in your sugar bowl
Baby, it'll be me, and I'll be lookin' for you.
First Sign Of Madness lyrics - Deep Purple
Somebody tell me
Why I'm talking to myself
I never listen to a word I say
Nor does anyone else
Somebody ask me
If I have any doubt
Maybe yes, maybe no
It's something to think about
The first sign of madness
Is talking to yourself
When I'm deep in conversation
Boy it sure is hard to tell
You're gonna have to put me down
You don't know where I've been
You can't imagine in your wildest dreams
The kind of shit we're in
Rambling on again
No-one's listening
On and on again
Don't believe a single word
Why I'm talking to myself
I never listen to a word I say
Nor does anyone else
Somebody ask me
If I have any doubt
Maybe yes, maybe no
It's something to think about
The first sign of madness
Is talking to yourself
When I'm deep in conversation
Boy it sure is hard to tell
You're gonna have to put me down
You don't know where I've been
You can't imagine in your wildest dreams
The kind of shit we're in
Rambling on again
No-one's listening
On and on again
Don't believe a single word
Money Talks lyrics - Deep Purple
I was young and healthy
Extremely wealthy
I swung in the trees
And did as I pleased
I thought I was rich
Oh yeah
Such sweet seduction
I could feel the suction
Greasing my palm
And doing no harm
Just making some deals
What a bitch
Money talks to me
Whispers in my ear
Gives me everything I want
Everything I want
I had rising stock
So I got more pockets
I knew somewhere to stick it
Where no-one would nick it
I kinda went private
And then, aha
Such sweet seclusion
No more intrusion
Too much food on my plate
But there's guards at the gate
Such joy
I could almost die of it
Money talks to me
Lays it on the line
Gives me everything I want
Everything I want
Money goes to money
Yes it always returns
Finds its way back to the big house
Where it lives all alone
Wraithlike silent partners
Operators of the system
Give words of quiet assurance
To an otherwise healthy victim
It's all coming back to me
I would swing in the trees
And I'd swim in the ocean
I used to show some emotion
I was not to blame
I feel no shame
The structure was shaking
Was there for the taking
I had the resources
But then, oh no
Someone outbid me
I can't take it with me?
Then I will devour it
I can't go without it
It's simply a question of
Market forces
Money talks to me
Whispers in my ear
Gives me everything I want
Everything I want
Money talks to me
Laughs right in my face
Gives me everything I want
Everything I want
Extremely wealthy
I swung in the trees
And did as I pleased
I thought I was rich
Oh yeah
Such sweet seduction
I could feel the suction
Greasing my palm
And doing no harm
Just making some deals
What a bitch
Money talks to me
Whispers in my ear
Gives me everything I want
Everything I want
I had rising stock
So I got more pockets
I knew somewhere to stick it
Where no-one would nick it
I kinda went private
And then, aha
Such sweet seclusion
No more intrusion
Too much food on my plate
But there's guards at the gate
Such joy
I could almost die of it
Money talks to me
Lays it on the line
Gives me everything I want
Everything I want
Money goes to money
Yes it always returns
Finds its way back to the big house
Where it lives all alone
Wraithlike silent partners

Give words of quiet assurance
To an otherwise healthy victim
It's all coming back to me

And I'd swim in the ocean

Girls Like That lyrics - Deep Purple
I'm in a bad spot babe
I can't hear what you say
I'd love to stop and talk
You keep fading away
Just the way she said it
Something in her tone
Always so convincing
But she's good on the phone
I'll wait until she's ready
That could be a while
She always takes her time
Then she turns up in style
Something not right
Didn't recognise the car
Women being what they are
There is no sense of reason
In a reasonable world
Makes any sense at all
To a reasonable girl
She said you know what I mean
But I couldn't understand
Didn't know what she said
I'm a reasonable man
It wasn't meant that way
I was only having fun
She looked me in the eye
But the damage was done
I got the vague impression
She was under my thumb
I looked the other way
And I had to succumb
Girls like that
I want girls like that
Girls like that
I like girls like that
I can't hear what you say
I'd love to stop and talk
You keep fading away
Just the way she said it
Something in her tone
Always so convincing
But she's good on the phone
I'll wait until she's ready
That could be a while
She always takes her time
Then she turns up in style
Something not right
Didn't recognise the car
Women being what they are
There is no sense of reason
In a reasonable world
Makes any sense at all
To a reasonable girl
She said you know what I mean
But I couldn't understand
Didn't know what she said
I'm a reasonable man
It wasn't meant that way
I was only having fun
She looked me in the eye
But the damage was done
I got the vague impression
She was under my thumb
I looked the other way
And I had to succumb
Girls like that
I want girls like that
Girls like that
I like girls like that
Wrong Man lyrics - Deep Purple
I wasn't in the room when the action was going down
I may have been there once but at the time I was out of town
I'm seeing strange fruit, they're saying off with his head
One way or another I'll end up dead
You got the wrong man
You don't understand
You got the wrong man
You got the wrong man
I do what I can
I plead not guilty to the charges you've laid out on your desk
I know what you're thinking "Oh yes - this is a DSF"
I think I'm prime ministerial material but I can't lie to you
So I'm out of the running
But from here in my cell I imagine
Wouldn't that be something
You got the wrong man
You don't understand
You got the wrong man
You got the wrong man
I do what I can
I may have been there once but at the time I was out of town
I'm seeing strange fruit, they're saying off with his head
One way or another I'll end up dead
You got the wrong man
You don't understand
You got the wrong man
You got the wrong man
I do what I can
I plead not guilty to the charges you've laid out on your desk
I know what you're thinking "Oh yes - this is a DSF"
I think I'm prime ministerial material but I can't lie to you
So I'm out of the running
But from here in my cell I imagine
Wouldn't that be something
You got the wrong man
You don't understand
You got the wrong man
You got the wrong man
I do what I can
Rapture Of The Deep lyrics - Deep Purple
I told you once about a place that I had accidentally stumbled upon
Can you imagine how it feels to find somewhere that you can do no wrong
But it's alright you're safe in my hands
I'll meet you in the sky tonight and we will trace some undiscovered stars
We'll go beyond the universe beyond all understanding, hey, it's not that far
But if s alright I feel safe in your hands
I can't stand living this way
Getting by from day to day
I'm drinking from your loving cup
I told you things were looking up
Oh oh oh so good
Oh it feels so good
We're all the same but then again we're all quite different in our own peculiar ways
We've come so far and now we're going through another phase
But it's alright
We made it so far
I can't stand living this way
Getting by from day to day
I'm drinking from your loving cup
Told you things were looking up
As we all know if s hard to breathe when something spiritual has taken place
We don't know why we don't know how we've been transformed into a state of grace
But it's alright
We walk in our sleep
Yes it's alright
This is rapture of the deep
Can you imagine how it feels to find somewhere that you can do no wrong
But it's alright you're safe in my hands
I'll meet you in the sky tonight and we will trace some undiscovered stars
We'll go beyond the universe beyond all understanding, hey, it's not that far
But if s alright I feel safe in your hands
I can't stand living this way
Getting by from day to day
I'm drinking from your loving cup
I told you things were looking up
Oh oh oh so good
Oh it feels so good
We're all the same but then again we're all quite different in our own peculiar ways
We've come so far and now we're going through another phase
But it's alright
We made it so far
I can't stand living this way
Getting by from day to day
I'm drinking from your loving cup
Told you things were looking up
As we all know if s hard to breathe when something spiritual has taken place
We don't know why we don't know how we've been transformed into a state of grace
But it's alright
We walk in our sleep
Yes it's alright
This is rapture of the deep
Clearly Quite Absurd lyrics - Deep Purple
After all we said today
The strangest thought occurred
I feel I ought to tell you
But it's clearly quite absurd
Wouldn't it be wonderful
If you could read my mind
Imagine all the stuff
That we could leave behind
How many words you waste
Before you're understood
Or simply sow some seeds
You'd do it if you could
Let me take a moment
Of your time
Inside you mind
I know what you're thinking
But I don't know what to say
The turmoil and the conflict
You don't have to feel that way
Look into my eyes
And feel my hand upon your heart
Holding us together
Not tearing us apart
How many words we waste
To justify a crime
Compare it to an act of love
That really takes no time
Why not take a moment
Of your time
Inside your mind
The strangest thought occurred
I feel I ought to tell you
But it's clearly quite absurd
Wouldn't it be wonderful
If you could read my mind
Imagine all the stuff
That we could leave behind
How many words you waste
Before you're understood
Or simply sow some seeds
You'd do it if you could
Let me take a moment
Of your time
Inside you mind
I know what you're thinking
But I don't know what to say
The turmoil and the conflict
You don't have to feel that way
Look into my eyes
And feel my hand upon your heart
Holding us together
Not tearing us apart
How many words we waste
To justify a crime
Compare it to an act of love
That really takes no time
Why not take a moment
Of your time
Inside your mind
Don't Let Go lyrics - Deep Purple
I get lost on a regular basis
I'm not alone I see the same old faces
Back on the road it's a worthy opponent
I get home in the heat of the moment
What's that stuff always rise to the surface
College cream, it always emerges
Be what you are I tell myself
And myself tells me we can't be anybody else
You always sleep with a smile on your face
Much as I want to put myself in your place
Not my business I've got dreams of my own
I try to recall but when I wake up it's gone
Don't let go of that image
You'll never see it again
I can hear voices they're buzzing in my head
Eyebrows raised was it something I said
A long hot night, it crept in like a thief
The engine stopped, the seatbelt popped
And her jaw dropped in disbelief
Don't let go of that beast
You'll never see it again
Don't let go of that whisky bottle
You'll never see it again
I'm not alone I see the same old faces
Back on the road it's a worthy opponent
I get home in the heat of the moment
What's that stuff always rise to the surface
College cream, it always emerges
Be what you are I tell myself
And myself tells me we can't be anybody else
You always sleep with a smile on your face
Much as I want to put myself in your place
Not my business I've got dreams of my own
I try to recall but when I wake up it's gone
Don't let go of that image
You'll never see it again
I can hear voices they're buzzing in my head
Eyebrows raised was it something I said
A long hot night, it crept in like a thief
The engine stopped, the seatbelt popped
And her jaw dropped in disbelief
Don't let go of that beast
You'll never see it again
Don't let go of that whisky bottle
You'll never see it again
Back To Back lyrics - Deep Purple
I read in the news
That the average man
Is uplifted five times a day
I'm confused
I have to confess
My feeling never goes away
I know it's right
They asked the average man
In a survey across the nation
I can't understand how the average man
Keeps losing his concentration
Oh you gotta use it
Oh you gonna lose it
I'm just begun
When you're all done
I see you running down the road
Can't hear a thing
My mind is blasted
And my head is about to explode
Feeling the pain
Just more of the same
As we're rolling through the night
Going so fast
We're sure to nit the next town
Before the last one's out of sight
Oh you gotta use it
Oh you gonna lose it
Back to back
One on one
Shake it up
Move it on
Back to back
One on one
Turn it up
Hold it down
That the average man
Is uplifted five times a day
I'm confused
I have to confess
My feeling never goes away
I know it's right
They asked the average man
In a survey across the nation
I can't understand how the average man
Keeps losing his concentration
Oh you gotta use it
Oh you gonna lose it
I'm just begun
When you're all done
I see you running down the road
Can't hear a thing
My mind is blasted
And my head is about to explode
Feeling the pain
Just more of the same
As we're rolling through the night
Going so fast
We're sure to nit the next town
Before the last one's out of sight
Oh you gotta use it
Oh you gonna lose it
Back to back
One on one
Shake it up
Move it on
Back to back
One on one
Turn it up
Hold it down
Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye lyrics - Deep Purple
I threw a rock in the lake and it sank to the bottom
The waves spread out but the rock got forgotten
The ripples came back just as we feared
Looking for the rock but the hole disappeared
It's somewhere in the middle some way down
The last guy that went looking almost certainly drowned
He ran out of time
He can kiss tomorrow goodbye
Yes I piss in the water and burn down trees
I watch as the creatures fall to their knees
They ain't got a clue as disaster looms
They're too busy choking on toxic fumes
They got no hope and there's no point running
No matter what they do I keep on coming
They ran out of time
They can kiss tomorrow goodbye
I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing
Well hallelujah and holy mackerel
All we got left is a thief and a jackal
The writing is big and it's there on the wall
Oh how the mighty empires fall
There's nothing to fix it's much too late
Sit down and prepare to meet your fate
You have run out of time
Kiss tomorrow goodbye
The waves spread out but the rock got forgotten
The ripples came back just as we feared
Looking for the rock but the hole disappeared
It's somewhere in the middle some way down
The last guy that went looking almost certainly drowned
He ran out of time
He can kiss tomorrow goodbye
Yes I piss in the water and burn down trees
I watch as the creatures fall to their knees
They ain't got a clue as disaster looms
They're too busy choking on toxic fumes
They got no hope and there's no point running
No matter what they do I keep on coming
They ran out of time
They can kiss tomorrow goodbye
I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing
I did a bad thing
Well hallelujah and holy mackerel
All we got left is a thief and a jackal
The writing is big and it's there on the wall
Oh how the mighty empires fall
There's nothing to fix it's much too late
Sit down and prepare to meet your fate
You have run out of time
Kiss tomorrow goodbye
MTV lyrics - Deep Purple
I was driving through the night
Into an endless tunnel of fog
When it dawned on me something was wrong
I was in a trance, hypnotized
Bored beyond belief, I was listening to the same old song
I know every lick, every word every nuance
I'm on first name terms with the crew
But I'd better get used to this poop du jour
Sure as hell they won't play anything new
Oh yes, I love you really
Classic Rock Radio
Oh, my dear it's time for bed
Time for you to go
Everyone is asleep
The pirates took to the water stole the charts
But sadly that didn't go down well with those upstairs
Who require loyalty, the establishment considered
That the uncontrolled appreciation of music
Was a danger to royalty, the mighty empire roared
As Cash 'n' Everitt on the high seas
Looked like they'd get blown out of the water
They did of course eventually come ashore
As meek as mice or to be more accurate as lambs to the slaughter
Oh yes, I love you really
I stand to attention
Oh, Fanny, I love you dearly
Something else I should mention?
You sweet thing
Let's not talk about MTV
I don't even want to start
I want to take a look at Classic Rock Radio
We're talking about the state of the art
Mr Grover 'n' Mr Gillian
You musta made a million
The night that Frank Zappa caught on fire
Could you tell us all about it
Keep it short and use my version
Or everyone out there'll think I'm a liar
We can speak about bananas for one second
Just because I understand
You have to get them off your chest
But in the meantime while you're talking
Could you do some more of these here ID's
And then this station might maintain some interest
Oh yes, I love you dearly
But why do you exist?
Oh yes, I love you really
Is there something that I missed?
Into an endless tunnel of fog
When it dawned on me something was wrong
I was in a trance, hypnotized
Bored beyond belief, I was listening to the same old song
I know every lick, every word every nuance
I'm on first name terms with the crew
But I'd better get used to this poop du jour
Sure as hell they won't play anything new
Oh yes, I love you really
Classic Rock Radio
Oh, my dear it's time for bed
Time for you to go
Everyone is asleep
The pirates took to the water stole the charts
But sadly that didn't go down well with those upstairs
Who require loyalty, the establishment considered
That the uncontrolled appreciation of music
Was a danger to royalty, the mighty empire roared
As Cash 'n' Everitt on the high seas
Looked like they'd get blown out of the water
They did of course eventually come ashore
As meek as mice or to be more accurate as lambs to the slaughter
Oh yes, I love you really
I stand to attention
Oh, Fanny, I love you dearly
Something else I should mention?
You sweet thing
Let's not talk about MTV
I don't even want to start
I want to take a look at Classic Rock Radio
We're talking about the state of the art
Mr Grover 'n' Mr Gillian
You musta made a million
The night that Frank Zappa caught on fire
Could you tell us all about it
Keep it short and use my version
Or everyone out there'll think I'm a liar
We can speak about bananas for one second
Just because I understand
You have to get them off your chest
But in the meantime while you're talking
Could you do some more of these here ID's
And then this station might maintain some interest
Oh yes, I love you dearly
But why do you exist?
Oh yes, I love you really
Is there something that I missed?
Junkyard Blues lyrics - Deep Purple
Broken down relations, beaten up guitars
Making one last appearance in a heap of old cars
Brambles and weeds flourishing amongst
Lines of empty bottles and rambling drunks
Junkyard blues sound familiar
I'm never alone
Always remind me of home
One of a dozen covered with stains
Blistered and stinking was all that remained
Cannibalised machines, mysterious bones
Unwanted contents of anonymous homes
Those junkyard blues sound familiar
Take me back
Always remind me of home
Mangy old dog scratching in the dust
Burned out Mercedes surrendering to rust
All this stuff was good for something
But here it is now, good for nothing
Junkyard blues sound familiar
I'm never alone
Always remind me of home
Making one last appearance in a heap of old cars
Brambles and weeds flourishing amongst
Lines of empty bottles and rambling drunks
Junkyard blues sound familiar
I'm never alone
Always remind me of home
One of a dozen covered with stains
Blistered and stinking was all that remained
Cannibalised machines, mysterious bones
Unwanted contents of anonymous homes
Those junkyard blues sound familiar
Take me back
Always remind me of home
Mangy old dog scratching in the dust
Burned out Mercedes surrendering to rust
All this stuff was good for something
But here it is now, good for nothing
Junkyard blues sound familiar
I'm never alone
Always remind me of home
Before Time Began lyrics - Deep Purple
The daylight fades and the stars come out
But there's never much to talk about
Another day goes rushing by and here we are just wondering why
We have to belong with a sense of purpose
That's all we need, without them we're worthless
Ah, we've come so far, hmm, but then again
All we see is more of the same
It's getting crowded here we agree no doubt
Oh dear brother what's it all about?
Hey you over there why don't you throw down your spear?
We all need some help right now
Where are we going from here?
The way things are working out
It won't be too long before we have to move
Better start thinking about it while there's still time to choose
Every day of my life I discover
Someone murdering my sisters and brothers
In the name of some god or another
What do you know?
For the first precious few it's time to go
What might have been we'll never know
All those bad ideas became the law
Oh yes, we've forgotten what we're looking for
All of you angels it's time to gather your wings
Leave it all behind you won't need any of those things
We're going on through the darkness hand in hand
To step into the future
Before time began
And for those who remain with your chosen gods
May your prayers be answered.
But there's never much to talk about
Another day goes rushing by and here we are just wondering why
We have to belong with a sense of purpose
That's all we need, without them we're worthless
Ah, we've come so far, hmm, but then again
All we see is more of the same
It's getting crowded here we agree no doubt
Oh dear brother what's it all about?
Hey you over there why don't you throw down your spear?
We all need some help right now
Where are we going from here?
The way things are working out
It won't be too long before we have to move
Better start thinking about it while there's still time to choose
Every day of my life I discover
Someone murdering my sisters and brothers
In the name of some god or another
What do you know?
For the first precious few it's time to go
What might have been we'll never know
All those bad ideas became the law
Oh yes, we've forgotten what we're looking for
All of you angels it's time to gather your wings
Leave it all behind you won't need any of those things
We're going on through the darkness hand in hand
To step into the future
Before time began
And for those who remain with your chosen gods
May your prayers be answered.
House Of Pain lyrics - Deep Purple
Have you ever had a woman that could make you crazy
Have you ever had a woman that could drive you mad
Have you ever had a woman give you so much trouble
And the best lovin' you ever had
My friends all say I'm losing it big time
But I know where I've got to go
I'm going back there again
I'm going back there again
I'm going back there again
Back to the house of pain
Have you ever had a rock that just keeps on rollin'
Have you ever seen a train comin' down the track
Have you ever jumped into the cold, cold never
And know there's no turning back
My friends all say I'm crazy, baby
But I know where I've got to go
I'm going back there again
I'm going back there again
I'm going home
Back to the house of pain
Have you ever had a weight that was much too heavy
Have you ever had a burden that was yours alone
Have you ever spent a night when you keep on waiting
Staring at the telephone
My friends all say I'm crazy, baby
But I know where I've got to go
I'm going back there again
I'm going back there again
I'm going back to my woman
Back to the house of pain
Then I run away
You'll always be my inspiration
I love you from afar
Have you ever had a woman that could drive you mad
Have you ever had a woman give you so much trouble
And the best lovin' you ever had
My friends all say I'm losing it big time
But I know where I've got to go
I'm going back there again
I'm going back there again
I'm going back there again
Back to the house of pain
Have you ever had a rock that just keeps on rollin'
Have you ever seen a train comin' down the track
Have you ever jumped into the cold, cold never
And know there's no turning back
My friends all say I'm crazy, baby
But I know where I've got to go
I'm going back there again
I'm going back there again
I'm going home
Back to the house of pain
Have you ever had a weight that was much too heavy
Have you ever had a burden that was yours alone
Have you ever spent a night when you keep on waiting
Staring at the telephone
My friends all say I'm crazy, baby
But I know where I've got to go
I'm going back there again
I'm going back there again
I'm going back to my woman
Back to the house of pain
Then I run away
You'll always be my inspiration
I love you from afar
Sun Goes Down lyrics - Deep Purple
Oh you're all looking up
With hearts of devotion
Through the dust and the heat lost to me
In a cloud of emotion
I have no motivation
To keep this breathless pace
I'm more inclined to stay here
In this breathing space
And the sun goes down
And the moon comes up
I never tried to walk the walk
'Cos the steps are elusive
The membership is too costly
And exclusive
Hey, the more I've got
The more I stand to lose
So I'm gonna unpack my bags
And take off my shoes
And the sun goes down
And the moon comes up
Let me tell you there's no point knocking
At the big oak door
Can't you see that it's all full up
They can't take no more
The line's so long
It's almost Disney
Ooh:
Wont somebody kiss me
And the sun goes down
And the moon comes up
With hearts of devotion
Through the dust and the heat lost to me
In a cloud of emotion
I have no motivation
To keep this breathless pace
I'm more inclined to stay here
In this breathing space
And the sun goes down
And the moon comes up
I never tried to walk the walk
'Cos the steps are elusive
The membership is too costly
And exclusive
Hey, the more I've got
The more I stand to lose
So I'm gonna unpack my bags
And take off my shoes
And the sun goes down
And the moon comes up
Let me tell you there's no point knocking
At the big oak door
Can't you see that it's all full up
They can't take no more
The line's so long
It's almost Disney
Ooh:
Wont somebody kiss me
And the sun goes down
And the moon comes up
Haunted lyrics - Deep Purple
I hear the beating of your wings
And you're playing on my strings
In mysterious ways
You draw me in
To a love
Beyond all understanding
Beyond my reach
So far away
But it seems
Like only yesterday
I'm Haunted
Haunted
Is that what you wanted
All that's left
Is the ghost of your smile
It stays awhile
Then fades away
I hear your footsteps on the ground
Tempting me to turn around
It's just the echo
Of a disenchanted lover
Shuffling aimlessly
Homeward bound
To empty rooms
And picture frames
And Friends
Who can't recall our names
I'm Haunted
Haunted
Is that what you wanted
All that's left
Is the ghost of your smile
It stays awhile
Then fades away
And you're playing on my strings
In mysterious ways
You draw me in
To a love
Beyond all understanding
Beyond my reach
So far away
But it seems
Like only yesterday
I'm Haunted
Haunted
Is that what you wanted
All that's left
Is the ghost of your smile
It stays awhile
Then fades away
I hear your footsteps on the ground
Tempting me to turn around
It's just the echo
Of a disenchanted lover
Shuffling aimlessly
Homeward bound
To empty rooms
And picture frames
And Friends
Who can't recall our names
I'm Haunted
Haunted
Is that what you wanted
All that's left
Is the ghost of your smile
It stays awhile
Then fades away
Razzle Dazzle lyrics - Deep Purple
I don't have the time of day
I don't know what day I is
Someone's falling on my head
Get up:get up
We're going out on the raz
Razzle dazzle
Call it what you want
To me it don't matter
It's where I belong
It's a matter of distinction
A real fine line
Between an orgy of destruction
And a wonderful time
This room's so cold and bare
There's nothing here for me
I've got to find some heat somewhere
Get up:get up
We're going out on the raz
Razzle dazzle
Call it what you want
It really doesn't matter
When I'm bangin' on a gong
While someone's holding out
To a willing congregation
And we can all forget about
The state of the nation
Can't hear a thing
But I see your lips are moving
I'm working on my thinking
And I think it's improving
I'm going to get the blame
So I might as well deliver
If only I can swim across
This weird human river
I know I started out
With the best of intentions
Some blinding inspiration
And a few not-to-mention
And now I'm looking deep
Into the last dying embers
Shouting what are we doing here
And nobody remembers
I've lost a friend or two
I don't know where they have gone
Only one thing I can do
Get up:get up
I'm going out on the raz
Razzle dazzle
Call it what you want
To me it don't matter
It's where I belong
It's a matter of distinction
A real fine line
Between an orgy of destruction
And a wonderful time
I don't know what day I is
Someone's falling on my head
Get up:get up
We're going out on the raz
Razzle dazzle
Call it what you want
To me it don't matter
It's where I belong
It's a matter of distinction
A real fine line
Between an orgy of destruction
And a wonderful time
This room's so cold and bare
There's nothing here for me
I've got to find some heat somewhere
Get up:get up
We're going out on the raz
Razzle dazzle
Call it what you want
It really doesn't matter
When I'm bangin' on a gong
While someone's holding out
To a willing congregation
And we can all forget about
The state of the nation
Can't hear a thing
But I see your lips are moving
I'm working on my thinking
And I think it's improving
I'm going to get the blame
So I might as well deliver
If only I can swim across
This weird human river
I know I started out
With the best of intentions
Some blinding inspiration
And a few not-to-mention
And now I'm looking deep
Into the last dying embers
Shouting what are we doing here
And nobody remembers
I've lost a friend or two
I don't know where they have gone
Only one thing I can do
Get up:get up
I'm going out on the raz
Razzle dazzle
Call it what you want
To me it don't matter
It's where I belong
It's a matter of distinction
A real fine line
Between an orgy of destruction
And a wonderful time
Silver Tongue lyrics - Deep Purple
Well I'm standing here on moving station
All the world is traveling by
To strange outlandish destinations
There they go, I wonder why
I may be crazy
But I'm no stupid
I get along
I use my silver tongue
You know I can dream in any language
Flying on my magic bed
And I don't need to work my passage
All I do is use my head
I may be crazy
But I'm no stupid
Sometimes I ramble
Then I'm Lucid
I might seem lazy
But I'm hurting no-one
I get along
I use my silver tongue
I know exactly what you're thinking
But you don't know what's in my mind
You went too fast and now your sinking
Because you forgot to read the signs
All the world is traveling by
To strange outlandish destinations
There they go, I wonder why
I may be crazy
But I'm no stupid
I get along
I use my silver tongue
You know I can dream in any language
Flying on my magic bed
And I don't need to work my passage
All I do is use my head
I may be crazy
But I'm no stupid
Sometimes I ramble
Then I'm Lucid
I might seem lazy
But I'm hurting no-one
I get along
I use my silver tongue
I know exactly what you're thinking
But you don't know what's in my mind
You went too fast and now your sinking
Because you forgot to read the signs
Walk On lyrics - Deep Purple
If you don't like what you see
If you can do better than me
Walk on
If the road before you winds
Obscuring al the signs
Walk on
You mean more to me
Than just a pretty face
I wont hold you down
You need a little space
If you don't like what you see
If you can do better than me
Walk on
You know I don't like to fight
No matter who's wrong or right
Walk on
If you can do better than me
Walk on
If the road before you winds
Obscuring al the signs
Walk on
You mean more to me
Than just a pretty face
I wont hold you down
You need a little space
If you don't like what you see
If you can do better than me
Walk on
You know I don't like to fight
No matter who's wrong or right
Walk on
Pictures Of Innocence lyrics - Deep Purple
I hear they're trying to make us all the same
It's mind control by any other name
Who's gonna pay the price
For this foolish paradise
Oh:Momma don't take that train
I hear it said we're headed too far south
Chinese whispers go by word of mouth
Rules for every size and shape
The nag has gone, shut the gate
Once you're in you're never getting out
I'm so misunderstood
There goes my manlihood
She's in my face again
With that picture of innocence
No drinks, No smokes
No dicking around
No dirty jokes
Straight lace, straight face
The old straight jacket
We got no hope
I hear they're gonna try out something new
I can feel it sticking to my shoe
So this is what tomorrow holds
Hopes and dreams are bought and sold
But still the world is misty green and blue
I', so misunderstood
There goes my mannish boyhood
She's in my face again
With that picture of innocence
No deals, No strokes
No forbidden fruit
No holy smoke
What next, no sex
That's the end of the road
That's the end of the road
We got no hope
No drinks, No smokes
No dicking around
No dirty jokes
Straight lace, straight face
The old straight jacket
We got no hope
No deals, No strokes
No forbidden fruit
No holy smoke
What next, no sex
That's the end of the road
We got no hope
It's mind control by any other name
Who's gonna pay the price
For this foolish paradise
Oh:Momma don't take that train
I hear it said we're headed too far south
Chinese whispers go by word of mouth
Rules for every size and shape
The nag has gone, shut the gate
Once you're in you're never getting out
I'm so misunderstood
There goes my manlihood
She's in my face again
With that picture of innocence
No drinks, No smokes
No dicking around
No dirty jokes
Straight lace, straight face
The old straight jacket
We got no hope
I hear they're gonna try out something new
I can feel it sticking to my shoe
So this is what tomorrow holds
Hopes and dreams are bought and sold
But still the world is misty green and blue
I', so misunderstood
There goes my mannish boyhood
She's in my face again
With that picture of innocence
No deals, No strokes
No forbidden fruit
No holy smoke
What next, no sex
That's the end of the road
That's the end of the road
We got no hope
No drinks, No smokes
No dicking around
No dirty jokes
Straight lace, straight face
The old straight jacket
We got no hope
No deals, No strokes
No forbidden fruit
No holy smoke
What next, no sex
That's the end of the road
We got no hope
I've Got Your Number lyrics - Deep Purple
So many signs
So many ways
It's a living thing
No need to rush
The buzz will last for days
When you discover
I'm just a man
Take it girl
Or leave it
Don't be reading out the label on the can
I got your number
I got your number
I got your number
I'll be your lover
I'll be your friend
I'll be your friend
And your brother in love
But that's where the story ends
If you say jump
I'll do it with affection
But don't get pissed
If I don't move
Too fast in your direction
I got your number
I got your number
I got your number
It's that same old nonsense
That same old look
But now I'm turning back
And I can read you like a book
It all means nothing
Nothing at all
It's the same old business
Man it drives me up the wall
You made the potion too strong
I feel I'm going soft
I've been that way far too long
You see, now it's wearing off
So many times
So many days
It's a spiritual thing
That loving touch
I thought you'd be amazed
I like the distance
I like the space
The money's good
The rent is cheap
And I can read suspicion on your face
I got your number
I got your number
I got your number
So many ways
It's a living thing
No need to rush
The buzz will last for days
When you discover
I'm just a man
Take it girl
Or leave it
Don't be reading out the label on the can
I got your number
I got your number
I got your number
I'll be your lover
I'll be your friend
I'll be your friend
And your brother in love
But that's where the story ends
If you say jump
I'll do it with affection
But don't get pissed
If I don't move
Too fast in your direction
I got your number
I got your number
I got your number
It's that same old nonsense
That same old look
But now I'm turning back
And I can read you like a book
It all means nothing
Nothing at all
It's the same old business
Man it drives me up the wall
You made the potion too strong
I feel I'm going soft
I've been that way far too long
You see, now it's wearing off
So many times
So many days
It's a spiritual thing
That loving touch
I thought you'd be amazed
I like the distance
I like the space
The money's good
The rent is cheap
And I can read suspicion on your face
I got your number
I got your number
I got your number
Never A Word lyrics - Deep Purple
Never a word, a word so true
Passed between us, me and you
Heard you found your pot of gold
That's the story I've been told
Never a word was said in vain
Some were never sad again
Some were lost in lovers' heat
Some lay fallen at our feet
All day all night
You and only you
All day all night
I think of you and only you
Never a word escaped my lips
Silenced by your fingertips
I kept my word, can you believe
All this time so hard to breathe
Hard to breathe
Passed between us, me and you
Heard you found your pot of gold
That's the story I've been told
Never a word was said in vain
Some were never sad again
Some were lost in lovers' heat
Some lay fallen at our feet
All day all night
You and only you
All day all night
I think of you and only you
Never a word escaped my lips
Silenced by your fingertips
I kept my word, can you believe
All this time so hard to breathe
Hard to breathe
Bananas lyrics - Deep Purple
I've got nothing to say today
I used my words up yesterday
I'm just lying here in the sun
Watching you guys having fun
Seven days and seven nights
Working till you got it right
Don't help me I'll help myself
I'll pull some crackers off the shelf
She had her hair done yesterday
Now she's coming out to play
First you pull and then you push
Two in the hand and one in the bush
Oh, my love is
So excited
When I say we've
Been invited
Now we're going
To the palace
Dressing up for
Tea with Alice
Some will rise and some will fall
Some will come to nothing at all
The strangest people have the power
To lead me to my darkest hour
How can you be sure it's me
When it's payment on delivery
Oh, my love is
So excited
When I say we've
Been invited
Now we're going
To the palace
Dressing up for
Tea with Alice
Now my love is
Richer than rich
'Cause I studied
Mathematics
Graduated
Without honours
Everyone has
Gone Bananas
I used my words up yesterday
I'm just lying here in the sun
Watching you guys having fun
Seven days and seven nights
Working till you got it right
Don't help me I'll help myself
I'll pull some crackers off the shelf
She had her hair done yesterday
Now she's coming out to play
First you pull and then you push
Two in the hand and one in the bush
Oh, my love is
So excited
When I say we've
Been invited
Now we're going
To the palace
Dressing up for
Tea with Alice
Some will rise and some will fall
Some will come to nothing at all
The strangest people have the power
To lead me to my darkest hour
How can you be sure it's me
When it's payment on delivery
Oh, my love is
So excited
When I say we've
Been invited
Now we're going
To the palace
Dressing up for
Tea with Alice
Now my love is
Richer than rich
'Cause I studied
Mathematics
Graduated
Without honours
Everyone has
Gone Bananas
Doing It Tonight lyrics - Deep Purple
I don't have a problem
I'm not seeking her advice
I'm saving that for later
Yeh, it's something awful nice
I had a shaky feeling
When she floated into sight
I imagine we'll be doing it tonight
I'm ragged round the edges
All these people in the room
There's magic in the air
I'm guessing she can feel it too
Prospective recreation
Helps me keep her in my sight
I imagine we'll be doing it tonight
That's why everybody's sitting around
We can't think of nothing better to do
There's no empty bottle
They're all half full
So we end up spinning a shoe
We keep on going 'til poor old Lenny's
Got drool hanging off of his chin
He can't stop winning
When the shoe stops spinning
But he doesn't know where to begin
She wasn't in the running
She was never in the game
I could see her in the distance
But I could not lay my claim
Let me tell you 'bout this cherry
I never got a single bite
Therefore I imagine we'll be doing it
tonight
I'm not seeking her advice
I'm saving that for later
Yeh, it's something awful nice
I had a shaky feeling
When she floated into sight
I imagine we'll be doing it tonight
I'm ragged round the edges
All these people in the room
There's magic in the air
I'm guessing she can feel it too
Prospective recreation
Helps me keep her in my sight
I imagine we'll be doing it tonight
That's why everybody's sitting around
We can't think of nothing better to do
There's no empty bottle
They're all half full
So we end up spinning a shoe
We keep on going 'til poor old Lenny's
Got drool hanging off of his chin
He can't stop winning
When the shoe stops spinning
But he doesn't know where to begin
She wasn't in the running
She was never in the game
I could see her in the distance
But I could not lay my claim
Let me tell you 'bout this cherry
I never got a single bite
Therefore I imagine we'll be doing it
tonight
Any Fule Kno That lyrics - Deep Purple
If you're in the right city at the right time
What's the last thing going through your mind
Not talking 'bout your
Ask no questions, you know it's a lie
You could have been the victim of a corporate crime
All the signs of a shark attack
You've got rivers of blood
On the streets, don't look back
Nothing personal, just another snack
'N Harley said you're better off sticking to your guns
Any fule kno that
Oh Moronica Queen of the Biz
And her friend Flash harry thinks he knows what it is
Tin Pan Alley Fat Head Larry don't know shit
Just trying to keep her happy
There's no laughing in heaven
Not the one, not the seven
And you'll never get to heaven in her row boat
Pea brain pisser, dog breath kisser
'N Harley said you're better off sticking to your guns
Any fule kno that
Won't it be nice
When everything falls into place
Salad days go a-tickling by, have a high time
Burn money in the meantime, they bleed you dry
Those suckers are smaller than life
Oh Moronica Queen of the Biz
And her friend Flash harry thinks he knows what it is
Tin Pan Alley Fat Head Larry don't know shit
I'm better off sticking to my guns
Any fule kno that
Won't it be nice
When everything falls into place
Danny went down to the river one day
Didn't come back, that's the last, they say
We ever saw of him, that's no lie
Spitting in your eye, have no fear
You don't want the truth
Stick your finger in your ear
Any fule kno that
What's the last thing going through your mind
Not talking 'bout your
Ask no questions, you know it's a lie
You could have been the victim of a corporate crime
All the signs of a shark attack
You've got rivers of blood
On the streets, don't look back
Nothing personal, just another snack
'N Harley said you're better off sticking to your guns
Any fule kno that
Oh Moronica Queen of the Biz
And her friend Flash harry thinks he knows what it is
Tin Pan Alley Fat Head Larry don't know shit
Just trying to keep her happy
There's no laughing in heaven
Not the one, not the seven
And you'll never get to heaven in her row boat
Pea brain pisser, dog breath kisser
'N Harley said you're better off sticking to your guns
Any fule kno that
Won't it be nice
When everything falls into place
Salad days go a-tickling by, have a high time
Burn money in the meantime, they bleed you dry
Those suckers are smaller than life
Oh Moronica Queen of the Biz
And her friend Flash harry thinks he knows what it is
Tin Pan Alley Fat Head Larry don't know shit
I'm better off sticking to my guns
Any fule kno that
Won't it be nice
When everything falls into place
Danny went down to the river one day
Didn't come back, that's the last, they say
We ever saw of him, that's no lie
Spitting in your eye, have no fear
You don't want the truth
Stick your finger in your ear
Any fule kno that
Almost Human lyrics - Deep Purple
I know you're the only one who understands
Afore ye go, before you leave
You always shake my hand
Even when I'm crazy, on fire and naked
Just as Nature intended
No style but easily blended
You always know where I'll be found
Hanging somewhere near the ground
Help me up or help me down
Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a haze
I'm dreaming
I believe I could walk before I learned to crawl
When I look up, the Devil's looking back
From the mirror on the wall
You can open the door
Got my feet stuck to the floor
I may have lost my way
But I didn't get where I am today
Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a haze
I'm dreaming
You spin into my empty room
And once again I'm almost human
Almost human
Afore ye go, before you leave
You always shake my hand
Even when I'm crazy, on fire and naked
Just as Nature intended
No style but easily blended
You always know where I'll be found
Hanging somewhere near the ground
Help me up or help me down
Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a haze
I'm dreaming
I believe I could walk before I learned to crawl
When I look up, the Devil's looking back
From the mirror on the wall
You can open the door
Got my feet stuck to the floor
I may have lost my way
But I didn't get where I am today
Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a haze
I'm dreaming
You spin into my empty room
And once again I'm almost human
Almost human
Don't Make Me Happy lyrics - Deep Purple
You stare into the room, nothing there but space
No sign of any message gone without a trace
But I don't want your pity, if that's what you think
I'll take my comfort from this hole I'm sinking in
Waste my time, drink my wine, take my money
That's alright, I don't mind but don't try to be funny
Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy
It's nice here in this room, you would like it, yes you
would
It's got a bed, two chairs and a table, I'd leave here if I
could
There's a man standing up who's down on his knees
Outside the cold wind sends a shiver through the trees
On the line, left behind, under pressure
It's so bad, leave me be, I don't want to get better
Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy
I don't care what you think but think about this
It could have been somebody else, beware of what
you wish
Now the door is closed, locked and sealed
And now you think you know how rejection feels
Waste my time, drink my wine, take my money
That's alright, I don't mind but don't try to be funny
Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy
No sign of any message gone without a trace
But I don't want your pity, if that's what you think
I'll take my comfort from this hole I'm sinking in
Waste my time, drink my wine, take my money
That's alright, I don't mind but don't try to be funny
Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy
It's nice here in this room, you would like it, yes you
would
It's got a bed, two chairs and a table, I'd leave here if I
could
There's a man standing up who's down on his knees
Outside the cold wind sends a shiver through the trees
On the line, left behind, under pressure
It's so bad, leave me be, I don't want to get better
Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy
I don't care what you think but think about this
It could have been somebody else, beware of what
you wish
Now the door is closed, locked and sealed
And now you think you know how rejection feels
Waste my time, drink my wine, take my money
That's alright, I don't mind but don't try to be funny
Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy
Seventh Heaven lyrics - Deep Purple
I've been to places where the sun goes down
Each day and never rises
I've been to places in a dark room
Where we played with our disguises
Heaven, I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven
It was a dream, I heard a voice
I put it down to wishful thinking
It was a dream, a silent scream
Out of the blue, a new beginning
Heaven, I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven
And then I fell upon a stroke of luck
That led to my good fortune
And then I fell upon my knees
And gently kissed the ground you walk on
Heaven, I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven
Each day and never rises
I've been to places in a dark room
Where we played with our disguises
Heaven, I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven
It was a dream, I heard a voice
I put it down to wishful thinking
It was a dream, a silent scream
Out of the blue, a new beginning
Heaven, I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven
And then I fell upon a stroke of luck
That led to my good fortune
And then I fell upon my knees
And gently kissed the ground you walk on
Heaven, I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven
Watching The Sky lyrics - Deep Purple
I sit here alone
I sit here alone
I look at the walls
Look at the walls
Look at the walls
I look at the walls
You shouldn't be out on your own
Oh no not with a condition like that
Oh no sir constant care
A condition like that, a condition so rare
A penny for the guy, a penny for your thoughts
One a penny, two a penny in your pocket
Ding dong bell, who can tell
Wild Man Fisher got nothing on me
I sit by the water
I sit by the water
Watch it go by
Clouds going by
I'm watching the sky
I left my luggage at the station
Didn't know how to say goodbye
I walked away from all the fury
And the madness and the fury
And the madness and the fury
And the madness
I smile to myself
I smile to myself
You're on the blind side, I'm on the other side
Now I'm on the outside looking for another side
Upside down side, I'm still lucid
I may be crazy but I'm not stupid
Try to get out, the parking lot's full
No matter, no matter, what's a man going to do
One two buckle my shoe
Zip my lip
I sit here alone
I look at the walls
Look at the walls
Look at the walls
I look at the walls
You shouldn't be out on your own
Oh no not with a condition like that
Oh no sir constant care
A condition like that, a condition so rare
A penny for the guy, a penny for your thoughts
One a penny, two a penny in your pocket
Ding dong bell, who can tell
Wild Man Fisher got nothing on me
I sit by the water
I sit by the water
Watch it go by
Clouds going by
I'm watching the sky
I left my luggage at the station
Didn't know how to say goodbye
I walked away from all the fury
And the madness and the fury
And the madness and the fury
And the madness
I smile to myself
I smile to myself
You're on the blind side, I'm on the other side
Now I'm on the outside looking for another side
Upside down side, I'm still lucid
I may be crazy but I'm not stupid
Try to get out, the parking lot's full
No matter, no matter, what's a man going to do
One two buckle my shoe
Zip my lip
Fingers To The Bone lyrics - Deep Purple
Everything went wrong
I'm sorry boys, I've got to let you go
We've had some hard times
And the long rain, it didn't show
Hired hands, I've seen them come and go
But you don't come much better
Today's Blue Monday
I just got a bad news letter
This day has come
The darkest cloud on our horizon
My hands are tied down
To that promise note I signed upon
Always been this way
It's the poor man who gets hurt
All you ever work for
Is to leave your footprints in the dirt
You work your fingers to the bone
The deed is done
The fruit will fall to someone else's hand
That's how the land lies
Now we all know where we stand
You'll have to walk away
Don't let them see you running
Today's Blue Monday
I should have seen it coming
You work your fingers to the bone
If sweat and tears were all it took
To make this valley green
We'd be alright but now it's gone
They've taken everything
They say it's just an act of God
And that's the way ill wind blows
You've got thirty days to pack your bags
Say goodbye, hit the road
You work your fingers to the bone
I'm sorry boys, I've got to let you go
We've had some hard times
And the long rain, it didn't show
Hired hands, I've seen them come and go
But you don't come much better
Today's Blue Monday
I just got a bad news letter
This day has come
The darkest cloud on our horizon
My hands are tied down
To that promise note I signed upon
Always been this way
It's the poor man who gets hurt
All you ever work for
Is to leave your footprints in the dirt
You work your fingers to the bone
The deed is done
The fruit will fall to someone else's hand
That's how the land lies
Now we all know where we stand
You'll have to walk away
Don't let them see you running
Today's Blue Monday
I should have seen it coming
You work your fingers to the bone
If sweat and tears were all it took
To make this valley green
We'd be alright but now it's gone
They've taken everything
They say it's just an act of God
And that's the way ill wind blows
You've got thirty days to pack your bags
Say goodbye, hit the road
You work your fingers to the bone
