Other non-Album songs from this period:
UNKNOWN LEGEND -------------- She used to work in a diner Never saw a woman look finer I used to order just to watch her float across the floor She grew up in a small town Never put her roots down Daddy always kept movin', so she did too. Somewhere on a desert highway She rides a Harley-Davidson Her long blonde hair flyin' in the wind She's been runnin' half her life The chrome and steel she rides Collidin' with the very air she breathes The air she breathes. You know it ain't easy You got to hold on She was an unknown legend in her time Now she's dressin' two kids Lookin' for a magic kiss She gets the far-away look in her eyes. Somewhere on a desert highway She rides a Harley-Davidson Her long blonde hair flyin' in the wind She's been runnin' half her life The chrome and steel she rides Collidin' with the very air she breathes The air she breathes. FROM HANK TO HENDRIX -------------------- From Hank to Hendrix I walked these streets with you Here I am with this old guitar Doin' what I do. I always expected That you should see me through I never believed in much But I believed in you. Can we get it together Can we still stand side by side Can we make it last Like a musical ride? From Marilyn to Madonna I always loved your smile Now we're headed for the big divorce California-style. I found myself singin' Like a long-lost friend The same thing that makes you live Can kill you in the end. Can we get it together Can we still stand side by side Can we make it last Like a musical ride? Sometime it's distorted Not clear to you Sometimes the beauty of love Just comes ringin' through. New glass in the window New leaf on the tree New distance between us You and me. Can we get it together Can we still walk side by side Can we make it last Like a musical ride? YOU AND ME ---------- Open up your eyes See how life time flies Open up and let the light back in. Open up your heart Let the lovin' start Open up and let the light back in. I was thinking of you and me Makin' love beneath the tree And now I wonder could it be. Thinkin' 'bout the times we had Some were good and some were bad Guitar fightin' the T.V. I was thinkin' 'bout you and me I was thinkin' 'bout you and me I was thinkin' of you and me I was thinkin' 'bout you and me. Lookin' at you just the other night Dancin' in the evening light True love conquers all. Old man sittin' there Touch of grey, but he don't care When he hears his children call. I was thinkin' 'bout you and me I was thinkin' 'bout you and me I was thinkin' 'bout you and me I was thinkin' 'bout you and me. Open up your eyes See how life time flies Open up and let the light back in. HARVEST MOON ------------ Come a little bit closer Hear what I have to say Just like children sleepin' We could dream this night away. But there's a full moon risin' Let's go dancin' in the light We know where the music's playin' Let's go out and feel the night. Because I'm still in love with you I want to see you dance again Because I'm still in love with you On this harvest moon. When we were strangers I watched you from afar When we were lovers I loved you with all my heart. But now it's gettin' late And the moon is climbin' high I want to celebrate See it shinin' in your eye. Because I'm still in love with you I want to see you dance again Because I'm still in love with you On this harvest moon. WAR OF MAN ---------- The little creatures run in from the cold Back to the nest just like the days of old There in the safety of a mother's arms The warmth of ages, far away from harm again. Ears ringin' from the battle fire The tired warrior aims a little higher The black falcon or the little sparrow The healing light or the flash of the barrel. No one wins It's a war of man, No one wins It's a war of man. Silver mane flyin' in the wind Down through the planets on the run again No one knows where they're runnin' to But every kind is comin' two by two. Out on the delta where the hoofbeats pound The daddy's runnin' on the frozen ground Can't smell the poison as it follows him Can't see the gas and machines, it's a war of man. No one wins It's a war of man, No one wins It's a war of man. The windows open and the little girl dreams The sky's her playground as she mounts her steed Across the heavens to the other side On wings of magic does the little girl ride. The baby creatures run in from the cold Back to the nest just like the days of old There in the safety of a mother's arms The warmth of ages, far away from harm again. No one wins It's a war of man, No one wins It's a war of man, No one wins. ONE OF THESE DAYS ----------------- One of these days, I'm gonna sit down and write a long letter To all the good friends I've known And I'm gonna try And thank them all for the good times together. Though so apart we've grown. One of these days, I'm gonna sit down and write a long letter To all the good friends I've known One of these days, one of these days, one of these days, And it won't be long, it won't be long. And I'm gonna thank, That old country fiddler And all those rough boys Who play that rock 'n' roll I never tried to burn any bridges Though I know I let some good things go. One of these days, I'm gonna sit down and write a long letter To all the good friends I've known One of these days, one of these days, one of these days, And it won't be long, it won't be long. From down in L.A. All the way to Nashville, From New York City To my Canadian prairie home My friends are scattered Like leaves from an old maple. Some are weak, some are strong. One of these days, I'm gonna sit down and write a long letter To all the good friends I've known One of these days, one of these days, one of these days, And it won't be long, it won't be long. One of these days, one of these days, one of these days, And it won't be long, it won't be long. SUCH A WOMAN ------------ You are such a woman to me And I love you Our love with live Until the end of all time. No one else can kill me like you do No one else can fill me like you do And no one else can feel our pain. Love is a healer And I love you. No one else can fill me like you do No one else can kill me like you do And I love you. You are such a woman to me. OLD KING -------- King went a-runnin' after deer Wasn't scared of jumpin' off the truck in high gear King went a-sniffin' and he would go Was the best old hound dog I ever did know. I had a dog and his name was King I told the dog about everything There in my truck the dog and I Then one day the King up and died. Then I thought about the times we had Once when I kicked him when he was bad Old King sure meant a lot to me But that hound dog is history. King went a-runnin' after deer Wasn't scared of jumpin' off the truck in high gear King went a-sniffin' and he would go Was the best old hound dog I ever did know. That old King was a friend of mine Never knew a dog that was half as fine I may find one, you never do know 'Cause I still got a long way to go. I had a dog and his name was King I told the dog about everything Old King sure meant a lot to me But that hound dog is history. King went a-howlin' after deer Wasn't scared of jumpin' off the truck in high gear King went a-sniffin' and he would go Was the best old hound dog I ever did know. DREAMIN' MAN ------------ I'm a dreamin' man, yes, that's my problem I can't tell when I'm not being real. In the meadow dusk I park my Aerostar With a loaded gun and sweet dreams of you. I'll always be a dreamin' man I don't have to understand I know it's alright. I see your curves and I feel your vibrations You dressed in black and white, you lost in the mall I watch you disappear past Club Med Vacations Another sleepless night, a sun that won't fall. I'll always be a dreamin' man I don't have to understand I know it's alright. Now the night is gone, a new day is dawning And our homeless dreams go back to the street Another time or place, another civilization Would really make this life feel so complete. I'll always be a dreamin' man I don't have to understand I know it's alright. Dreamin' man He's got a problem Dreamin' man Dreamin' man He's got a problem Dreamin' man. NATURAL BEAUTY -------------- On the roller coaster ride That my emotions have to take me on I heard a newborn baby cry Through the night. I heard a perfect echo die Into an anonymous wall of digital sound Somewhere deep inside Of my soul. A natural beauty should be preserved like a monument to nature Don't judge yourself too harsh, my love Or someday you might find your soul endangered A natural beauty should be preserved like a monument to nature. Amazon You had so much and now so much is gone What are you gonna do With your life? What a lucky man. To see the earth before it touched his hand What an angry fool To condemn. One more night to go One more sleep upon your burning banks A greedy man never knows What he's done. A natural beauty should be preserved like a monument to nature Don't start yourself too short, my love Or someday you might find your soul endangered A natural beauty should be preserved like a monument to nature. Went to the rodeo today I saw the cowgirls lined up on the fence A brand new Chevrolet A brand new pair of seamless pants. We watched the moment of defeat Played back over on the video screen Somewhere deep inside Of my soul. A natural beauty should be preserved like a monument to nature. LIVE TO RIDE ------------ Live to ride, ride my dream machine Good conditions sometime are a screen Running from the daily grime He was, he was a friend of mine Gonna take a long, long time But this thing will fade away Running from the daily grime He was, he was a friend of mine. Live to ride, ride in the lonesome wind Cross the line, you can't come back again Never let a dream machine Gather dust in your garage Gonna take a long, long time But this thing will fade away Running from the daily grime He was, he was a friend of mine. Gonna take a long, long time But this thing will fade away Running from the daily grime He was, he was a friend of mine. Live to ride, ride my dream machine. HITCHHIKER ---------- When I was a hitchhiker on the road I had to count on you But you needed me to ease the load And for conversation too Or did you just drive on through. You didn't see me in Toronto When I first tried out some hash Smoked some then and I'll do it again If I only had some cash Only had some cash. Then I tried amphetamines And my head was in a glass Taped underneath the speedometer wires Of my '48 Buick's dash. But I knew that wouldn't last. Then came California Where I first saw open water In the land of opportunity I knew I was getting hotter I knew I was getting hotter. But the neon lights And the endless nights The neon lights And the endless nights The neon lights And the endless nights The neon lights And the endless nights They took me by surprise The doctor gave me valium But I still couldn't close my eyes I still couldn't close my eyes. Then came paranoia And it ran away with me I couldn't sign my autograph Or appear on TV Or see or be seen See or be seen Or see or be seen. Living in the country Sounded good to me Smoking grass while the summer lasts In the real organic sea Where everything was green Everything was green. Then we had a kid and we split apart I was living on the road A little cocaine went a long long way To ease that different load But my head did explode My head did explode. I wish I was an Aztec Or a runner in Peru I would build such beautiful buildings To house the chosen few Like an Inca from Peru. When I was a hitchhiker on the road I had to count on you But you needed me to ease the load And for conversation too Or did you just drive on Did you just drive on Did you just drive on through. Or did you just drive on Did you just drive on Did you just drive on through. PHILADELPHIA ------------ Sometimes I think that I know What love's all about And when I see the light I know I'll be all right. I've got my friends in the world, I had my friends When we were boys and girls And the secrets came unfurled. City of brotherly love Place I call home Don't turn your back on me I don't want to be alone Love lasts forever. Someone is talking to me, Calling my name Tell me I'm not to blame I won't be ashamed of love. Philadelphia, City of brotherly love. Brotherly love. Sometimes I think that I know What love's all about And when I see the light I know I'll be all right. Philadelphia.
