Hey pretty baby let’s go for a ride
cruisin’ down the freeway sittin’ side by side.
I don’t care; you can bring your dog too,
cruisin’ down the freeway is all I want to do.
Let’s go cruisin’, that’s all I want to do,
go cruisin’ in my automobile.
Yeah! Hey yeah. Well, come on now,

I know that it would be such a thrill
cruisin’ in my automobile, my automobile.
Be by your house ‘bout half past eight.
There be ready now won’t be late,

Look out child, I’m gonna mess with you.
Let’s go cruisin’, baby, you been lookin’ so good
cruisin’ in my automobile.
Yeah! Hey yeah.
Well, come on now, cruise with me baby;
I know that it would be such a thrill
cruisin’ in my automobile, my automobile.

Want to go cruisin’ in my automobile.
Come on baby you’re lookin’ so good,

Like I think I should, yeah!
I want to go, I want to go, I want to go cruisin’.
Oh, baby you know you been lookin’ so foxy by my side.

Dance with the Dragon.
It makes you want to get away, you know you got to stay.
Hot Water.
You get what you give if you give what you get.
St. Charles.
Let me tell you ’bout a dream, dream.
Song to the Sun
Ozymandias.
In the wintertime when the sun is gone, and I think I lost my way;
Moon, I’ll get it! You be the earth and I’ll be the sky,
With Your Love.
Don’t know what’s happened to me since I met you.
Switchblade.
He’s gonna go down if I keep turning him around.
Big City.
Oh, I can tell by the way that she walks, she’s a big city girl.
Love Lovely Love.
Love, lovely love, you got a way that’s so exciting.

Lookin’ for lovin’ but you know it aint’ easy.
Lookin’ for freedom and everybody needs it.
All the young dudes in jail will remember
when the laws are finally changed,
and they’ll wonder ’bout Oscar,
who spent five years in a Texican jail. What do you say?
What about you? What-cha gonna do ’bout Mary Lou?
She died in Santa Rita; Billy shot it out in Alameda.
It makes you want to get away, you know you got to stay.
Lookin’ for love but you know it ain’t easy.
Dance with the dragon it’s the year that he breathes
Slow Fire. ’Nam vets scared yet;
heroes dream and broken bayonets.
No choice, no voice, I got to find a reason
for my heart to rejoice.
Yankee Doodle get it up, and stick a feather in your hat.
Yankee Doodle keep it up, and call it macaroni.
Yankee Doodle get it up, and stick a feather in your hat.
Yankee Doodle keep it up, and call it macaroni.
I want to get away, I know I got to stay.
Lookin’ for love but you know it ain’t easy.
Dance with the dragon it’s the year that he breathes
Slow Fire. Dragon year so clear;
the sound of wings burnin’ in my ear.
Is it the rising sun, is it the settin’ sun?
Dance with the dragon ’til the year is done.
Yankee Doodle get it up, and stick a feather in your hat.
Yankee Doodle keep it up, and call it macaroni.
Yankee Doodle get it up, and stick a feather in your hat.
Yankee Doodle keep it up, and call it macaroni.
I can see by the smile on your face that you know
what I mean. If you can hear me,
won’t you come near me whenever you can?
And it all gets down to love.
Love is hard. Love is hard. Love is hard.

Ooh, don’t forget it. Hot water, cold water.
You get what you take if you take what you get.
Whoa, we can make it. Think I’m gonna skip this
shining rock across the water, hot water.
Send it out and if it’s love I wanna see it
come straight back; straight up the way it ought to.
Whoa, you say you feel like love is here,
know it’s a feelin’ of love that you can hear.
You can leave right now, you can love today.
Let me hear what you have to say.
You get what you give if you give what you get.
Ooh, don’t forget it. Hot water, cold water.
You get what you take if you take what you get.
Whoa, we can make it. Think I’m gonna skip this
shining rock across the water, hot water.
Send it out and if it’s love I wanna see it
come straight back; straight up the way it ought to.
Whoa, you say you feel like love is here,
know it’s a feelin’ of love that you can hear.
You can leave right now, you can love today.
Let me hear what you have to say.
Love, love is what I wanna say, hot water.
Love, love is where I wanna stay, hot water.
Love, love is where I wanna stay, hot water.

You know I saw her in a dream.
Oh, St. Charles sings, sings about love.
St. Charles, tell me tonight, tell me about love.
You know I saw her in a dream.
There was China in her eyes;
in a silk and velvet disguise,
she was movin’ like a lady
lookin’ like a dragon princess.
She was walkin’, walkin’ by the river,
rollin’ in a rhythm of love.
I never felt like this before;
I’ll never stop I just want more.
Oh, St. Charles sings, sings about love.
St. Charles, tell me tonight, tell me about love.
You know I saw her in a dream.
I was shanghaied by her way,
hypnotized by the things she would say
in the moonlight on the water
we were like lovers in another lifetime.
Oh, is it only a vision?
Ah, it feels like a prison,
just the spell of a demon
I can’t get away.
Oh, St. Charles sings, sings about love.
St. Charles, tell me tonight, tell me about love.
Please tell me ’bout love.
Know I saw her in a dream.
Let me take you to another place, another time,
another world of people dancin’ in rhyme;
dance in the air, six-fingered webbed and fair as the air.
She’s the storm bringer, storm changer.
Tie yourself down to the main mast.
Tie yourself down to the main mast
like Ulysses in the water storm,
winds comin’ down the main line.
Tie it down with love.
Tie it down with love.
Don’t you feel it stormin’?
Don’t you feel it stormin’?

the door into the summertime seems so far away.
Bareback airborne lady, turn me into daylight.
Don’t let it rain.

Don't Let It Rain.
(Lyrics by Paul Kantner, China Wing Kantner. Music by Paul Kantner.)
and we could sail to the top of the world.
Be my love, won’t you be my life and we could fly
to the top of the world.
Now, won’t you think about it now?
Now, make it realer, now you seem to feel her now;
let it roll. Moon, I’ll get it! There’s a curtain high
in the corner of the sky;
someone’s behind it, I don’t know who.
It might be love, but I’m not quite certain;
the lady isn’t certain, too.
Don’t let it rain on me tonight; don’t let it rain.
I need to feel the sun again;
oh baby, please don’t let it rain. Rain.
Moon, I’ll get it! Moon, I’ll get it!
Childhood’s end, childhood’s end.
Oh, there are children being born who will amaze you with their minds.
Leave them be; help them grow, watch them fly.
You will see things in these years that will ease all your fears;
help you build a bridge to the sky.
We are not alone. We are not alone.
And the sky tastes like a ship tonight.
We are not alone.
Moon, I’ll get it! La la la la la, la la la la la
la la la la la la. La la la la la la la la la la.
Don’t let it rain on me tonight;
don’t let it rain. I need to feel the sun again,
oh baby, please don’t let it rain.
Don’t let it rain. Don’t let it rain.
I think I feel the sun again. Oh baby,
please don’t let it rain. Don’t let it,
don’t let it, oh, baby, please don’t let it rain. Oh.

Feels like I’m fallin’ in love since I met you.
I want to know what-cha doin’ to me with your love? (with your love)
What-cha doin’ to me with your love? (with your love)
What-cha doin’ to me with your love? (with your love)
What-cha doin’, baby, it feels so good whatever it is.
Knew from the start it had to be you.
You got my heart, I don’t know what I’m gonna do.
With your love, heaven sent a sign that sent you.
I’m goin’ out of my mind since I met you.
I wanna know whatever it is now, whatever it’s called
I know that it’s you I can’t help gettin’ involved with your love.
I wanna know whatever you did to me, well, you sure did it good.
My heart’s filled with lovin’ and I knew that it would, with your love.
Don’t know what’s happened to me since I met you.
I feel like I’m fallin’ in love since I met you.

I don’t want to see him go, don‘t want to see him go.
No, because he’s seen a lot of fast-talkin’ women.
I believe, I believe I’d better take it slow,
because I know, I know that this is love and this is the day.
This is love, this is the day. Oh, this is love, this is the day,
the day that he’s drivin’ on ice. Whoa, but his body’s full of fire and flyin’.
Smile on his face looks so nice, but he’s just so tired of tryin’.
The morning brings cold weather and the nights are all alone;
and he thinks about that woman and he wonders, Ah!
Will she ever know that he’s lovin’ her;
oh, he’s lovin’ her like he’s never loved, like he’s never loved before.
And bein’ alone’s just not that easy anymore.
But don’t you be sorry, no, don’t you be sad.
Ah, you know things change.
The woman isn’t gonna wanna keep you, No!
Any longer than you want to stay.
Well, so go to her when you think you know
this is love, this is the day.
This is love, this is the day.
This is love, oh, this is love, this is the day.

Ooh, and I can tell by the way that she talks, she might even save the world.
Well, she got my number, but I don’t think she knows my name.
Ooh, but since I’ve found this woman, don’t you know my life has changed.
Well, she’s got me singin’ my song, like I never sung before.
Big city, big city. Lord, I’d like to try ’em again.
Big city, big city. Big city woman got me again.
Now, if you go to New Orleans, you got to find her there, too.
Ha! Now don’t you know just what I mean; I think she’s down there lookin’ for you.
Oh, I been to Chicago, baby. I been to New York City, too. Yes, I have.
Well, don’t you know the big city women, they know how hot to give me the blues.
Early in the morning when the big city lovin’ begins, yeah.
Big city, big city. Lord, I’d like to try ’em again.
Big city, big city. Big city woman got me again.

I don’t mind the pain of that burning flame.
I know it’s true, I get the feelin’ too.
Hey, why don’t you take whatever you want from me?
I’m in the mood for all the lovin’ that I can see.
Is this for real now? Oh, I ask you now, can this be?
Love, lovely love, you movin’ sweet inside of someone
comes a thunder rain and a hurricane.
So it’s coming thru, straight from me to you.
Hey, why don’t you take whatever you want from me?
I’m in the mood for all the lovin’ that I can see.
Is this for real now? Oh, I ask you now, can this be?
Love, lovely love, you do a dance that’s so inviting.
I don’t know the way. Oh, the words, the game.
But I know it’s you. Got the feelin’ too.
Why don’t you take whatever you want from me?
I’m in the mood for all the lovin’ that I can see.
Is this for real now? Oh, I ask you now, can this be?
Love lovely love. Love lovely love. Love lovely love.
Love lovely love. Love lovely love. Love lovely love.
Love lovely love. Love lovely love. Love lovely love.
