We are descendants of the free. We are the soldiers of the Cause. We shouted out the same decree. To hold the truth above the law. . Those were the nights to remember.
I'm a pilgrim like you, I was only passin through. You'll never know my name, you'll never walk in my shoes. I've been no use to my friends, I've been no use to myself.
The crusaders and their stooges. All you renegade rulers. All you spotlight fugitives. All you shakers, all you movers. All you cutthroat dealers. And you small-time users.
I can feel it comin' on. Any day now, won't be long. I can feel it comin' on. Any day now, won't be long. Empty your heart. Empty your eyes. They're gonna teach you.
I went out on the street today. The Canadian Dream was as far away as it's ever been. As it's ever been. . I went out on the street today. The Canadian Dream was as far away as it's ever been.
Over land, I traveled time and space and quicksand. And for sixty days I knew no other road. And through the maelstrom, which turned in time with the kick drum.
Come make your complaint to the Bootleg Saint. He's been gone, keepin' on, keepin' on for your freedom. Black boots, brown skin he has chemical roots.
It came in a vision and a vision dont lie. Though tears from the heaven is better .dry. Low rain under the .risin no rain behind. No change in the seasons going inside..
I'm Shah Jahan you're Taj Mahal. Do you remember that night at the Minah Bazaar. You were meant to be mine. You were meant to be mine. . I saw fourteen children.
You can fade away my love I will always. Remember your faces, through fade away. Bless all of your eyes, I realize you're my reason. And I will always cherish the days, when our souls will be together.
I've been around the world and I wrote a million songs. It's all a bore to me. I've slept in the gutter and I've lied to the dogs. It never bothered me.
With the ease of a practiced smile. The tears of a crocodile. Well, shake then wash your hands. Of the smell of foreign land. . The propaganda woman said.
Trying hard, I thought I'd done my best. All my life, I can't get no rest. Some who've closed the door before. Say I can't carry on no more.. I hear them saying.
A cage of my own. This cage is my home. And also alone am I. From above all around. Helpless to the sound. Of my brother's cry. . Just leave us alone.
A cage of my own, this cage is my home. And oh, so alone am I. From above all around helpless to the sound. Of my brother's cry. . Just leave us alone, we don't want to moan.
Trying hard, I felt I'd done my best. All my life, I can't get no rest. Some who've closed the door before. Say I can't carry on no more. . I hear them saying, tomorrow's just another day.
Waking up again another sleepless night. Climbing taller buildings more dreams of flight. In a pool of sweat not knowing what to do. No more earth-bound feelings a diff'rent point of view.
Scouring through the wasteland. With an urge to take. Anything that comes into view. Only ten more puffs to teatime. I've found eating so time consuming.
Whoa oh. Whoa oh. . Staggering home everybody sings. All the old songs the cockney routines. All the old women, all the young men. Try changing places then back again.
When I consider how my life is spent. They cry but I know that everything is heaven sent. But why do people lie when all they want is truth at their tables.
