Bbc Sessions

Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move
Gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove.
Oh, oh, child, way you shake that thing
Gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting.
Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way
Watch your honey drip, can't keep away.

*ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah., ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.

I gotta roll, can't stand still,
Got a flame in my heart, can't get my fill,
Eyes that shine burning red,
Dreams of you all thru my head.
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.

Hey, baby, oh, baby, pretty baby,
Tell me what you do me now.
(repeat)

Didn't take too long 'fore i found out
What people mean my down and out.
Spent my money, took my car,
Started tellin' her friends she wants to be a star.
I don't know but i been told
A big legged woman ain't got no soul.

* chorus

All i ask for when i pray,
Steady rollin' woman gonna come my way.
Need a woman gonna hold my hand
And tell me no lies, make me a happy man.

Oh!
Workin' from seven to eleven ev'ry night,
It really makes life a drag,
I don't think that's right.
I've really, really been the best of fools,
I did what i could, yeah
'cause i love you, baby,
How i love you, darling,
How i love you, baby,
How i love you, girl, little girl.
But baby, since i've been loving you, yeah,
I'm about to lose my worried mind, oh, yeah.
Ev'rybody trying to tell me
That you didn't mean me no good.
I've been trying, lord, let me tell you,
Let me tell you i really did the best i could.
I've been working from seven to eleven ev'ry night,
I said it kinda makes my life a drag.
Lord, that ain't right, no no!
Since i've been loving you,
I'm about to lose my worried mind.
Said i've been crying,
My tears they fell like rain,
Don't you hear,
Don't you hear them falling,
Don't you hear,
Don't you hear them falling.
Said i been cryin, yeah!
Oh my tears they felt like rain.
Don't you hear them falling?
Don't you hear them?
Do you remember, mama, when i knocked upon your door?
I said you had the nerve to tell me
You didn't want me no more, yeah
I open my front door, hear my back door slam,
You must have one of them new fangled,
New fangled back door man,
I've been working from seven, seven, seven,
To eleven ev'ry night,
It kinda makes my life a drag, a drag, drag,
Ah, yeah, it makes a drag.
Baby, since i've been loving you,
I'm about to lose,
I'm about to lose, lose my worried mind.
Just one more!
Oh yeah
Since i've been loving you, i'm about to lose my worried mind.

I don't know how i'm gonna tell you
I can't play with you no more,
I don't know how i'm gonna do what mama told me,
My friend, the boy next door.
I can't believe what people saying
You're gonna let your hair hang down,
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long,
You're in the darker side of town.
And when i'm out i see you walking,
Why don't your eyes see me,
Could it be you've found another game to play,
What did mama say to me.

*that's the way,
Oh, that's the way it ought to be,
Yeah, yeah, mama say
That's the way it ought to stay.

And yesterday i saw you standing by the river,
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes,
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
Had they got you hypnotized?
And yesterday i saw you kissing tiny flowers,
But all that lives is born to die.
And so i say to you that nothing really matters,
And all you do is stand and cry.
I don't know what to say about it,
When all you ears have turned away,
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay?
That's the way
That's the way it oughtta be
Oh don't you know now
Mama said.. that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah.

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
>from the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying:
Valhalla, i am coming!
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.
Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
>from the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green,
Can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war.
We are your overlords.
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.
So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite of all your losing.

There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
There's a feeling i get
When i look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts i have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.
And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the may queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.
Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

Spent my days with a woman unkind,
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
Made up my mind to make a new start,
Going to california with an aching in my heart.
Someone told me there's a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
Took my chances on a big jet plane,
Never let them tell you that they're all the same.
The sea was red and the sky was grey,
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
As the children of the sun began to awake.
Seems that the wrath of the gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
I think i might be sinking.
Throw me a line if i reach it in time
I'll meet you up there where the path
Runs straight and high.
To find a queen without a king;
They say she plays guitar and cries and sings.
La la la la
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born.
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
Telling myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.

Hey, girl, stop what you're doin'!
Hey, girl, you'll drive me to ruin.
I don't know what it is that i like about you,
But i like it a lot.
Won't let me hold you,
Let me feel your lovin' charms.

*communication breakdown,
It's always the same,
I'm having a nervous breakdown,
Drive me insane!

Hey, girl, i got something i think you ought to know.
Hey, babe, i wanna tell you that i love you so.
I wanna hold you in my arms, yeah!
I'm never gonna let you go,
'cause i like your charms.
* chorus
I want you to love me all night...
* chorus
I want you to love me all night
I want you to love me
I want you to love...yeah! i want you to love!

How many more times,
Treat me the way you wanna do?
How many more times,
Treat me the way you wanna do?
When i give you all my love,
Please, please be true.
I'll give you all i've got to give,
Rings, pearls, and all.
I'll give you all i've got to give,
Rings, pearls, and all.
I've got to get you together baby,
I'm sure, sure you're gonna crawl.
Wanna love some other man too!
I was a young man, i couldn't resist
Started thinkin' it all over, just what i had missed.
Got me a girl and i kissed her and then and then...
Whoops, oh lordy, well i did it again.
Now i got ten children of my own
I got another child on the way that makes eleven.
But i'm in constant heaven.
I know it's all right in my mind
'cause i got a little schoolgirl and she's all mine
I can't get through to her 'cause it doesn't permit
But i'm gonna give her everything i've got to give.
Oh, rosie, oh, girl x2
Steal away now, steal away
Steal away baby, steal away
Little robert anthony wants to come and play.
Why don't you come to me baby?
Steal away, all right, all right...
Well they call me the hunter, that's my name
They call me the hunter, that's how i got my fame
Ain't no need to hide,
Ain't no need to run
'cause i've got you in the sights of my..........gun!
How many more times
Barrelhouse all night long, all right!
How many more times
Barrelhouse all night long?
I've got to get to you, baby
Baby, please come home.
Why don't you listen to me babe?
Why don't you please come home? x3
Ooh!

I can't quit you, baby,
So i'm gonna put you down for awhile.
I said i can't quit you, baby,
I guess i gotta put you down for awhile.
Said you messed up my happy home,
Made me mistreat my only child.
Yessir, you did!
Said you know i love you, baby,
My love for you i could never hide.
Oh, you know i love you, baby,
My love for you i could never hide.
Oh, when i feel you near me little girl
I know you are my one desire.
When you hear me moaning and groaning, baby,
You know it hurts me deep down inside.
When you hear me moaning and groaning, baby,
You know it hurts me deep down inside.
Oh, when you hear me, honey, baby,
You know you're my one desire.
Yes, you are.
