1. _ Carouselambra
(jones/page/plant)
Sisters of the way-side bide their time in quiet peace,
Await their place within the ring of calm;
Still stand to turn in seconds of release,
Await the call they know may never come.
In times of lightness, no intruder dared upon
To jeopardize the course, upset the run;
And all was joy and hands were raised toward the sun
As love in the halls of plenty overrun.
Still in their bliss unchallenged mighty feast,
Unending dances shadowed on the day.
Within their walls, their daunting formless keep,
Preserved their joy and kept their doubts at bay.
Faceless legions stood in readiness to weep,
Just turn a coin, bring order to the fray;
And everything is soon no sooner thought than deed,
But no one seemed to question in anyway.
How keen the storied hunter's eye prevails upon the land
To seek the unsuspecting and the weak;
And powerless the fabled sat, too smug to lift a hand
Toward the foe that threatened from the deep.
Who cares to dry the cheeks of those who saddened stand
Adrift upon a sea of futile speech?
And to fall to fate and make the 'status plan'
Where was your word, where did you go?
Where was your helping, where was your bow? bow.
Dull is the armour, cold is the day.
Hard was the journey, dark was the way. way.
I heard the word; i couldn't stay. oh.
I couldn't stand it another day, another day,
Another day, another day.
Touched by the timely coming,
Roused from the keeper's sleep,
Release the grip, throw down the key.
Held now within the knowing,
Rest now within the peace.
Take of the fruit, but guard the seed.
They had to stay!
Held now within the knowing,
Rest now within the beat.
Take of the fruit, but guard the seed...

2. _ The Lemon Song
I should have quit you long time ago,
Yeah, long time ago.
Oh yeah, long time ago.
I wouldn't be here, my children,
Down on this killin' floor.
I should have listened, baby, to my second mind x2
Everytime i go away and leave you, darling,
You send me the blues way down the line.
Babe, treat me right, baby, oh my my my
People tellin' me baby can't be satisfied;
They try to worry me baby
But they never hurt you in my eyes.
Said, people worry i can't keep you satisfied.
Let me tell you baby,
You ain't nothin but a two-bit, no-good jive.
Went to sleep last night, worked as hard as i can,
Bring home my money, you take my money, give it to another man;
I should have quit you, baby, such a long time ago,
I wouldn't be here with all my troubles
Down on this killing floor.
Squeeze me baby, till the juice runs down my leg, x2
The way you squeeze my lemon,
I..i'm gonna fall right out of bed, yeah.
Hey! (conversation between robert plant & guitar)
Baby baby baby...
I'm gonna leave my children down on this killin floor.

(page/plant)
Ooh...know i feel so strange looking out the door
Oooh...tryin hard to change but can't let go
Oooh...cryin' tears of pain and more and more
Oooh...everyday is the same as the one before
I'm walkin the floor over you
I'm walkin the floor
Every heart that breaks is a heart that's cold
To the hand that takes your dreamless soul
Ooh...is it long to wait, is it much to pay?
Oooh...sometimes it's hard waiting for the day.
You know it's hard. i said it's hard
You know it's true. i said it's hard
You know it's hard. you know it's true
Every tear that falls is a smile that's lost
When you hear the call can you count the cost?
As you stand alone do you wonder how?
Can you step aside, does it matter now?
Every love that's changed ?-?-?-?-?-?
In the eye of the night ?-?-?-
In the day everything ?-?-?-?
She was smilin' a tear at her waters fall ??
You know it's true. you know it's true now
I'm walkin the floor over you
I'm walkin' the floor
Every tear that falls is a smile that's lost
When you hear the call can you count the cost?
As you stand alone do you wonder how?
Can you step aside, does it matter now?
Does it matter now? (repeat)

5. _ Royal Orleans
(bonham/jones/page/plant)
One time love, take care how you use it
Try to make it last all night, and if you take your pick
Be careful how you choose it, sometimes its hard to feel it bite
Feel it bite.
A man i know, went down to louisiana,
Had himself a bad, bad fight
And when the sun peeked through
John cameron with suzanna,
He kissed the whiskers, left & right
Whiskers!
Now, now, now, fright subsides
Out at a hotel in the quarter, our friends check in to pass the night
Now love gets hot, but fire preceded water
Poor whiskers set the room alight.
Whiskers!
Down on bourbon street, you know it's right
You can see my friend, they run around all through the night
Most everywhere, until the closet's bare
Run for the razor, doin' up my hair
New orleans queens, sure know how to schmooze it
Maybe for some that seems alright
When i step out, strut down with my sugar
She'd best not talk like barry white!
One time love, take care how you use it
Try to make it last all night, and if you take your pick
Be careful how you choose it, sometimes its hard to feel it bite
Feel it bite.

8. _ The Rover
(page/plant)
I've been to london, seen seven wonders. i know to trip is just to fall
I used to rock it, sometimes i'd roll it. i always knew what it was for.
There can be no denyin' that the wind 'll shake 'em down
And the flat world's flyin'. there's a new plague on the land
If we could just join hands (x3)
Traversed the planet when heaven sent me. i saw the kings who rule them all
Still by the firelight and purple moonlight. i hear the rested rivers call
And the wind is crying, from a love that won't grow cold
My lover, she is lying, on the dark side of the globe
If we could just join hands (x3)
You got me rockin' when i ought to be a-rollin'
Darlin', tell me, darlin', which way to go
You keep me rockin', baby, then you keep me stolen
Won't you tell me, darlin', which way to go... that's right
Oh how i wonder, oh how i worry and i would dearly like to know
I've all this wonder of earthly plunder will it leave us anything to show
And our time is flyin' see the candle burnin' low
Is the new world rising, from the shambles of the old
If we could just join hands.

Baby, when you walk that sweet walk
Oh, you walk it good, yes you walk it good
Baby, when you talk that sweet talk
Oh, it sounds so good, oh so good
With a little bit of concentration
And a little bit of helpin' hands, yeah
And a little bit of raving madness
You know it makes me feel, baby
Both my feet are back on the ground
And when the rhythm takes me
It feels so good, oh so good
Baby if it keeps a-shaking
It will do you good, oh so much good
With a little bit of stop-a-shakin' shakin'
And a little bit of ?fly right down?
And a little bit of sweet con-carne
It makes me feel, makes me feel
I got my feet on the ground
Ooh now baby, when you move it makes me
Really feel so good, oh so good
And i'm so glad, so glad, so glad, so glad
And i'm good, oh, so good
With a little bit of concentration
And a little bit of helping hand
And a little bit of ?saving madness?
You know it makes me feel, baby
I'm back on the ground oh yes, sure does
It makes me feel back on the ground.
I'm feelin' good child!
Down on the ground.

So you better lay your money down.
Alimony, alimony payin' your bills,

When your conscience hits, you knock it back with pills.

Tellin' tall ( helen told ??) tales of how it used to be,
Livin', lovin', she's just a woman.
With the butler and the maid and the servants three ( servantry ? ).

Nobody hears a single word you say.

But you keep on talkin' till your dyin' day.

(jones/page/plant)
I received a message from my brother across the water
He sat laughin' as he wrote the end's in sight
So i said goodbye to all my friends
And packed my hopes inside a matchbox
'cause i know it's time to fly
Come on, meet me in the morning, meet me in the middle of the night
The morning light is comin', don't it make you wanna go and feel alright
I just jumped a train that never stops,
So now somehow i'll know i never finished payin' for my ride
Just n' someone pushed a gun into my hand
Tell me i'm the type of man to fight the fight that i'll require
Come on, meet me in the morning, meet me in the middle of the night
The morning light is comin', don't it make you wanna go and feel alright
Oh, mama, well i think it's time i'm leavin'
Nothin' here to make me stay
Whoa, mama, well it must be time i'm goin'
They're knockin' down them doors
They're tryin' to take me away
Please mr. brakeman, won't you ring your bell. and ring loud and clear
Please mr. fireman, won't you ring your bell
Tell the people they got to fly away from here
I once saw a picture of a lady with a baby
Southern lady, had a very, very special smile
We are in the middle of a change in destination
When the train stops, all together we will smile
Oh, meet me in the morning. won't you meet me in the middle of the night, night, night
Everybody know the mornin' time is comin'
Don't it make you wanna feel alright. ah, ah, yeah
Make me feel alright. fly now, baby
Get to fly, yeah. fly now, baby

14. _ That's The Way
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.

Until i just can't look no more
How come twenty four hours, baby sometimes seems to slip into days?
A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when i feel this way.
To sing a song for you, i recall you used to say
"oh baby this one's for we two", which in the end is you anyway
How come twenty four hours, baby sometimes slip into days?
A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when i feel this way.
There was a time that i stood tall, in the eyes of other men
But by my own choice i left you woman, and now i can't get back again
How come twenty-four hours, sometimes slip into days?
A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when i feel this way

When so many loves go wrong
Will our love go on and on and on and on and on and on?

So of one thing i am sure,
It's a friendship so pure,
Angels singing all around
My dog is so fine.
Yeah, ain't but one thing to do
Spend my nat'ral life with you,
You're the finest dog i knew, so fine.

Well i just got into town today
To find my girl who's gone away
She took the greyhound at the general store
I searched myself i searched the town
When i finally did sit down
I find myself no wiser than before
She said we couldn't do no wrong
No other love could be so strong
She locked up my heart in her bottom drawer
Now she took my heart she took my keys
From in my old blue dungarees
And i'll never go to texas anymore
* chorus: now my baby's gone i don't know what to do
She took my love and walked right out the door
And if i ever find that girl i know one thing for sure
I'm gonna give her something like she never had before
I took her love at seventeen
A little late these days it seems
But they said heaven is well worth waiting for
I took her word i took it all
Beneath the sign that said "u-haul"
She left angels hangin round for more
Chorus
I thought i had it all sewn up
Our love, a plot, a pick-up truck
But folks said she was after something more
I never did quite understand
All that talk about rockin' bands
But they just rolled my doll right out the door
Oh yeah, they just rolled my doll right out the door!

24. _ Hots On For Nowhere
(page/plant)
I was burned in the heat of the moment,
Though it couldn't have been the heat of the day
When i learned how my time had been wasted,
(and a) tear fell as i turned away
Now i've got friends who will give me their shoulder,
Event i should happen to fall
Time and his bride growing older
I've got friends who will give me fuck all
(on the) corner of bleeker and nowhere
In the land of not quite day
A shiver runs down my backbone
Face in the mirror turns grey
So (i) looked round to hitch up the reindeer
Searching hard trying to brighten the day
I turned around to look for the snowman
To my surprise he'd melted away.
As the moon and the stars call the order
Inside my tides dance the ebb and sway
The sun in my soul's sinking lower
While the hope in my hands turns to clay
I don't ask that my field's full of clover
I don't moan at opportunity's door
And if you ask my advice, take it slower
Then your story'd be your finest reward.
Lost on the path to attainment
Search in the eyes of the wise
When i bled from the heart of the matter
I started bleeding without a disguise
Now everything's fine under heaven
Now and then you've got to take time to pause
When you're down on the ground, don't be messin' around
Or you'll land in a boat without oars
Hey babe, hey babe, hey babe,
I lost my way.
Hey babe, hey babe,
I don't know where i'm gonna find it.
Hey babe, hey babe,
Do you wanna know,
Do you really, really, wanna help me, yeah?
Let me tell you now, babe
Let me tell you
That it feels so good that it must be right
Now my babe,
Let me tell you
That it feels so good that it must be right...

Down by the seaside. see the boats go sailin'
Can the people hear, what the little fish are sayin'
Oh, oh, the people turned away. oh, the people turned away
Down in the city streets, see all the folk go racin', racin'
No time left, to pass the time of day
The people turned away. the people turned away
So far away, so far away
See how they run, see how they run, see how they run, see how they run.
Do you still do the twist
Do you find you remember things that well
I wanna tell you... some go twistin' every day
Though sometimes it's awful hard to tell
Out in the country, hear the people singin'
Singin' 'bout their progress, knowin' where they're goin'
Oh, oh, oh, oh, the people turned away
Yes, the people turned away
Sing loud for the sunshine, pray hard for the rain
And show your love for lady nature. and she will come back again the people turned away
The people turned away

27. _ Bring It Home
Baby, baby
I'm gonna bring it on home to you.
I've got my ticket, i've got that load.
Got up, gone higher, all aboard.
Take my seat, right way back. ooh yeah
Watch this train roll down the track.
I'm gonna bring it on home, bring it on home to you.
Watch out, watch out, man move
Try to tell you baby, what you tryin' to do?
Tryin' to love me baby, love some other man too.
Bring it on home...
Went a little walk downtown, messed and got back late.
Found a note there waiting, and it said, "daddy, i just can't wait."
Bring it on home..., bring it back home to me baby...
Tell you, pretty baby, you love to mess me `roun'.
I'm gonna give you lovin', baby, gonna move you out o' town.
Bring it on home...
Sweetest little baby, daddy ever saw.
I'm gonna give you lovin' baby, i'm gonna give you more.
Bring it on home..., all right.
Bring it on home, bring it on home to you...

28. _ Out Of The Tiles
As i walk down the highway all i do is sing this song,
And a train that's passin' my way helps the rhythm move along.
There is no doubt about the words are clear,
The voice is strong, is oh so strong.
I'm just a simple guy, i live from day to day.
A ray of sunshine melts my frown and blows my blues away,
There's nothing more that i can say but on a day like today
I pass the time away and walk a quiet mile with you.
*all i need from you is all your love,
All you got to give to me is all your love,
All i need from you is all your love,
All you got to give to me is all your love.
Oooh yeah, ooh yeah, ooh yeah, oh yeah.
I'm so glad i'm living and gonna tell the world i am,
I got me a fine woman and she says that i'm her man,
One thing that i know for sure gonna give her all the loving
Like nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody can.
Standing in the noonday sun trying to flag a ride,
People go and people come, see my rider right by my side,
It's a total disgrace, they set the pace, it must be a race
And the best thing i can do is run.
* chorus

29. _ How Many More Times
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!

30. _ Good Times' Bad Times
In the days of my youth
I was told what it means to be a man,
Now i've reached the age
I've tried to do all those things the best i can.
No matter how i try,
I find my way into the same old jam.
*good times, bad times,
You know i had my share;
When my woman left home
For a brown eyed man,
Well, i still don't seem to care.
Sixteen: i fell in love
With a girl as sweet as could be,
Only took a couple of days
Till she was rid of me.
She swore that she would be all mine
And love me till the end,
But when i whispered in her ear
I lost another friend, oooh.
* chorus
I know what it means to be alone,
I sure do wish i was at home.
I don't care what the neighbors say,
I'm gonna love you each and every day.
You can feel the beat within my heart.
Realize, sweet babe, we ain't ever gonna part.

When i done quit hollerin' baby
I believe i shake 'em on down
Get my babe, won't be late,
You know by that i mean seconds late
Ah, must i holler,

Well i've been mistreated, babe,

No brown skin woman gonna make
No monkey out of me,

Sure my shot, shot, shot-gun will,
Yeah, i gave my baby a twenty dollar bill,
If that don't get that woman,
I'm sure my shot-gun will.
Gonna go shoot her now...

32. _ Four Sticks
Oh, baby, it's cryin' time, oh, baby, i got to fly.
Got to try to find a way, got to try to get away,
'cause you know i gotta get away from you, babe.
Oh, baby, the river's red, oh, baby, in my head.
There's a funny feelin' goin' on, i don't think i can hold out long.
*and when the owls cry in the night,
Oh, baby, baby, when the pines begin to cry,
Baby, baby, baby, how do you feel?
If the river runs dry, baby, how do you feel?
Craze, baby, the rainbow's end, mmm, baby, it's just a den
For those who hide, who hide their love to depths of life
And ruin dreams that we all knew so, babe.
* chorus
