01. Foxy Lady

Foxy, Foxy
You know you are a cute little heart breaker
Foxy yeah,
And you know you are a sweet little lover maker

I won't do you no harm
You've got to be all mine, all mine
Ooh Foxy Lady
Foxy, Foxy

Now-a I see you come down on the scene
Oh Foxy
You make me wanna get up and-a scream
Foxy, oh baby listen now
I've made up my mind,
I'm tired of wasting all my precious time
You've got to be all mine, all mine

Ooh, Foxy Lady

You look so good, Foxy

02. Manic Depression

Manic depression is searching my soul
I know what I want
But I just don't know
How to go about getting it

Feeling, sweet feeling
Drops from my Fender's fingers
Manic depression has a-captured my soul

Woman so weary
The sweet cause in vain
You make love
You break love
It's a all the same
When it's
When it's over

Music sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Manic depression is a frustrating mess

Well, I think I'll go turn myself off and go on down
All the way down
Really ain't no use in me hanging around
In a your kind of scene

Music sweet music
I wish I could caress, and kiss, kiss
Manic depression is a frustrating mess

Music sweet music
Music
Depression

03. Red House

There's a Red House over yonder
That's where my baby stays
There's a Red House over yonder, baby
That's where my baby stays

Well, I ain't been home to see my baby,
In ninety nine and one half days.
'Bout time I see her,
Wait a minute something's wrong here
The key won't unlock the door.

Wait a minute something's wrong baby,
Lord, have mercy, this key won't unlock this door,
Something's goin' on here.
I have a bad bad feeling
That my baby don't live here no more.

That's all right, I still got my guitar
Look out now

I might as well go on back down
Go back 'cross yonder over the hill
I might as well go back over yonder
Way back over yonder 'cross the hill,
(That's where I came from.)

'Cause if my baby don't love me no more,
I know her sister will!

04. Can You See Me

Can you see me? begging you on my knees
Wo yeah
Can you see? me baby
Baby please don't leave
Yeah if you can see me doing that
You can see in the future of a thousand years

Can you hear me?
Cryin' all over town
Yeah babe
Can you hear me baby?
Crying cause you put me down
What's with ya
If you can hear me doing that
You can hear a frait train coming grom a thousand miles

Ah yeah
Can you hear me?
Singing this song to you
Ah you better hold up your ears
Can you see me baby?
Singing theis song to you
Ah shucks
If you can hear me sing
You better come home like you supposed to do

Can you see me?
Hey hey
I don't believe you can see me
Wo yeah
Can you hear me baby?
I don't believe you can
You can't see me

05. Love Or Confusion

Is that the stars in the sky or is it raining far from now?
Will it burn me if I touch the sun,
So bit, so round?
Will I be truthful, yeah,
In choosing you as the one for me?

Is this love baby,
Or is it-a just confusion?

Oh, my mind is so mixed up, goin' round 'n' round_
Must there be all these colors without names,
Without sounds?
My heart burns with feelin' but
Oh! but my mind is cold and reeling.

Is this love, baby
Or is it confusion?

Oh, my head is pounding pounding
Going 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round.
Must there always be these colors?

06. I Don't Live Today

Will I live tomorrow?
Well I just can't say
Will I live tomorrow?
Well, I just can't say

But I know for sure
I Don't Live Today

No sun coming through my windows
Feel like I'm sitting at the bottom of a grave
No sun coming through my windows
Feel like I'm sitting at the bottom of a grave

I wish you'd hurry up 'n' rescue me
So I can be on my mis'rable way

I Don't Live Today
It's such a shame to waste you time away like this

Will I live tomorrow?
Well, I just can't say
Will I live tomorrow?
Well, I just can't say

But I know for sure
I Don't Live Today

07. May This Be Love

Waterfall, nothing can harm me at all,
My worries seem so very small
With my waterfall.

I can see my rainbow calling me
Through the misty breeze
Of my waterfall.

Some people say day-dreaming's
For all the, huh, lazy minded fools
With nothing else to do.

So let them laugh, laugh at me,
So just as long as I have you
To see me through,
I have nothing to lose 'long as I have you.

Waterfall, don't ever change your ways.
Fall with me for a million days,
Oh, my waterfall.

08. Fire

Alright,
Now listen, baby

You don't care for me
I don'-a care about that
Gotta new fool, ha!
I like it like that

I have only one burning desire
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand next to your fire [Repeat 4 times]

Listen here, baby
And stop acting so crazy
You say your mum ain't home,
It ain't my concern,
Just play with me and you won't get burned

I have only one itching desire
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand next to your fire [Repeat 4 times]

Oh! Move over, Rover
And let Jimi take over
Yeah, you know what I'm talking 'bout
Yeah, get on with it, baby
That's what I'm talking 'bout
Now dig this!
Ha!
Now listen, baby

You try to gimme your money
You better save it, babe
Save it for your rainy day

I have only one burning desire
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand next to your fire

09. 3rd Stone From The Sun

Oh strange beautiful grass of green
With your majestic silken scenes
Your mysterious mountains
I wish to see closer
May I land my kinky machine

Although your world wonders me
With your majestic superior cackling hen
Your people I do not understand
So to you I wish to put an end
And you'll never hear surf music again

10. Remember

Oh, remember the mocking bird, my baby bun
He used to sing for his supper, baby
Yes he used to sing for his supper, babe
He used to sing so sweet
Since my baby left me he ain't sang for two long days
Oh, remember the blue-birds and the honey bees,
They used to sing for sunshine
They used to sing for the flowers
They used to sing so sweet
But since my baby left me they ain't sang in two long days
Hey pretty baby, come on back to me
Make ev'ry body as happy as can be
So, baby, if you'll please come home again you know i'll
Kiss you for my supper,
You know I'll kiss you for my dinner, yeah!
But, ah, if you don't come back you know I'll have to
Starve to death
'Cus I ain't had one kiss all day now
Please remember
You've got to remember
You've got to remember our love
Come on back, baby, come on back in my arms,
I'll make ev'rything that better
Come on, baby, hurry up now
Can you hear me calling you back again now?
Come on, baby, stop jiving around, hurry home, hurry home

11. Are You Experienced?

If you can just get your mind together
Then come on across to me
We'll hold hands an' then we'll watch the sun rise
From the bottom of the sea
But first

Are You Experienced?
Ah! Have you ever been experienced?
Well, I have

I know, I know
You'll probably scream n' cry
That your little world won't let you go
But who in your measly little world are trying to prove that
You're made out of gold and - a can't be sold

So-er, Are You Experienced?
Ah! Have you ever been experienced?
Well, I have

Ah, let me prove it to you

Trumpets and violins I can hear in the distance
I think they're calling our names
Maybe now you can't hear them, but you will
If you just take hold of my hand

Ah! But Are You Experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?

Not necessarily stoned, but beautiful

12. Hey Joe

13. Stone Free

Everyday in the week I'm in a different city
If I stay too long people try to pull me down
They talk about me like a dog
Talkin' about the clothes I wear
But they don't realize they're the ones who's square

Yeah!
And that's why
You can't hold me down
I don't want to be tied down I gotta move

Stone free do what I please
Stone free to ride the breeze
Stone free, baby I can't stay

A woman here a woman there try to keep me in a plastic cage
But they don't realize it's so easy to break
Yeah but a sometimes I get a ha
Feel my heart kind a gettin' hot
That's when I got to move before I get caught

So dig this
And the is why, listen to me baby, you can't hold me down

Stone free do what I please
Stone free to ride the breeze

14. Purple Haze

Purple Haze all in my brain,
Lately things don't seem the same,
Actin' funny but I don't know why
'Scuse me while I kiss the sky.

Purple Haze all around,
Don't know if I'm coming up or down.
Am I happy or in misery?
Whatever it is, that girl put a spell on me.

Help me
Help me
Oh no, oh

Yeah, Purple Haze all in my eyes,
Don't know if it's day or night,
You've got me blowing, blowing my mind
Is it tomorrow or just the end of time?

Help me, yeah, Purple Haze!

15. 51st Anniversary

A fifty years they've been married
And they can't wait for their fifty first to roll around
Yeah, roll around
A thirty years they've been married
And now they're old and happy and they settle down
Settle down yeah!
Twenty years they've been married
And they did everything that could be done
You know their havin' fun

And then you come along and talk about

So you say you wanna be married
I'm gonna change your mind
Oh got to change
That was the good side baby
Here comes the bad side

Ten years they've been married
And a thousand kids run around hungry
Cause ther mother's a louse
Daddy's down at the wihiskey house
That ain't all

For thirty years they've been married
They don't get along so good
They're tired of each other, you know how that goes
She got another lover
Huh same old thing

So now you're seventeen
Running around hanging out, and a havin' your fun
Life for you has just begun, baby

And then you come saying
So you, you say you wanna get married
Oh baby trying to put me on a chain
Aint that some shame
You must be losing your, sweet little mind
I ain't ready yet, baby, I ain't ready
I'm gonna change your mind

Oooh look out baby
Oh
I ain't ready
I ain't ready
I ain't ready

Let me live
Let me live
Let me live a little longer

16. The Wind Cries Mary

After all the jacks are in their boxes
And the clowns have all gone to bed
You can hear happiness staggering on down the street footprints dressed in red

And the wind whispers Mary

A broom is drearily sweeping up the broken pieces of yesterdays life
Somewhere a queen is weeping
Somewhere a king has no wife

And the wind, it cries Mary

The traffic lights, they turn, uh, blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sags down stream
Cause the life that lived is, is dead

And the wind screams Mary

Uh-will the wind ever remember the names it has blow in the past?
And with this crutch, its old age
And its wisdom it whispers, "No, this will be the last"

And the wind cries Mary

17. Highway Chile

Yeah, his guitar slung across his back
His dusty boots is his cadillac
Flamin' hair just a blowin' in the wind
Ain't seen a bed in so long it's a sin
He left home when he was seventeen
The rest of the world he had longed to see
But everybody knows the boss
A rolling stone who gathers no moss

But you'd probably call him a tramp
But it goes a little deeper than that
He's a highway chile, yeah

Now some people say he had a girl back home
Who messed around and did him pretty wrong
They tell me it kinda hurt him bad
Kinda made him feel pretty sad
I couldn't say what went through his mind
Anyway, he left the world behind
But everybody knows the same old story,
In love and war you can't lose in glory

Now you'd probably call him a tramp
But I know it goes a little deeper than that
He's a highway chile

Walk on brother, yeah
One more brother

His old guitar slung across his back
His dusty boots is his cadillac
Flamin' hair just a blowin' in the wind
Ain't seen a bed in so long it's a sin

Now you may call him a tramp
But I know it goes a little deeper than that
He's a highway chile

Walk on brother
Don't let no one stop you
Highway chile
Yeah yeah yeah
Highway chile
Go on down the highway
Highway chile
Yeah yeah yeah
Highway chile
