Bad Moon Rising

I see the bad moon a-risin'.
I see trouble on the way.
I see earthquakes and lightnin'.
I see bad times today.

Don't go around tonight.
Well, it's bound to take your life.
There's a bad moon on the rise.

I hear hurricanes a-blowin'.
I know the end is comin' soon.
I feel rivers overflowin'.
I hear the voice of rage and ruin.

Don't go around tonight.
Well, it's bound to take your life.
There's a bad moon on the rise.
Alright.

Hope you got your things together.
Hope you are quite prepared to die.
Looks like we're in for nasty weather.
One eye is taken for an eye.

Well, don't go around tonight.
Well, it's bound to take your life.
There's a bad moon on the rise.

Don't come around tonight.
Well, it's bound to take your life.
There's a bad moon on the rise

Over by the courthouse, they're startin' to unwind.
Poor kids on the corner try to bring you up.
Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the hum.

Down on the corner, out in the street,
Willy and the poor boys are playin';
Bring a nickel. Tap your feet.

Gersta hits the white bow. People just gotta smile.
Lucas thumbs a gut-bass, yeah, solos for a while.
Poor boy brings the rhythym out on his kalamazoo
And Willy goes into a dance; doubles on his lou.

Have You Ever Seen The Rain?

Someone told me long ago There's a calm before the storm,
I know; It's been coming for some time.
When it's over, so they say, It'll rain a sunny day,
I know; Shining down like water.

CHORUS:
I want to know, Have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, Have you ever seen the rain
Coming down on a sunny day?

Yesterday, and days before, Sun is cold and rain is hard,
I know; Been that way for all my time.
'Til forever, on it goes Through the circle, fast and slow,
I know; It can't stop, I wonder.
CHORUS
Yeah!
CHORUS

Heard It Through The Grapevine

Oo, Bet you're wond'ring how I knew
About your plans to make me blue
With some other guy that you knew before?
Between the two of us guys, you know I love you more.
It took me by surprise, I must say,
When I found out yester-day.
Oo,
CHORUS:

I heard it through the grapevine,
Not much longer would you be mine.
Oo, I heard it through the grapevine,
And I'm just about to lose my mind.
Honey, honey yeah.

You know that a man ain't supposed to cry,
But these tears I can't hold inside.
Losing you would end my life you see,
'cause you mean that much to me.
You could have told me yourself
That you found someone else.
Instead,

CHORUS

People say you "Hear from what you see,
Na na not from what you hear."
I can't help bein' confused;
If it's true, won't you tell me dear?
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy that you knew before?
Oo,

CHORUS

CHORUS

Lookin' Out My Back Door

Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch.
Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singin',

CHORUS:
Doo, doo, doo, Lookin' out my back door.

There's a giant doing cartwheels, a statue wearin' high heels.
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.
A dinosaur Victrola list'ning to Buck Owens.

CHORUS

Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band.
Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon?
Doo, doo doo.
Wond'rous apparition provided by magician.

CHORUS

Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band.
Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon?
Doo, doo doo.
Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows.

CHORUS

Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.
Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows.

CHORUS

Run Through The Jungle

Whoa, thought it was a nightmare,
Lo, it's all so true,
They told me, "Don't go walking slow
'Cause Devil's on the loose."

Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Woa, Don't look back to see.

Thought I heard a rumbling
Calling to my name,
Two hundred million guns are loaded
Satan cries, "Take aim!"

Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Woa, Don't look back to see.

Over on the mountain
Thunder magic spoke,
"Let the people know my wisdom,
Fill the land with smoke."

Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,
Woa, Don't look back to see

(solo)

You say that you'll be true,
You say that you'll be true,
You say that you'll be true,
Baby I love you, Susie Q.

You say that you'll be mine,
You say that you'll be mine,
You say that you'll be mine,
Baby all the time, Susie Q.

Oh Susie Q,
Oh Susie Q,
Oh Susie Q baby I love you,
Susie Q.

I like the way you walk,
I like the way you talk,
I like the way you walk,
I like the way you talk, Susie Q

Take me to the hotel baggage gone oh well
Come on come on won't you get me to my room
I wanna move
Playin' in a travelin' band
Yeah!
Well I'm flyin' 'cross the land, tryin' to get a hand
Playin' in a travelin' band

Listen to the radio talkin' 'bout the last show
Someone got excited, had to call the state militia
Wanna move
Playin' in a travelin' band
Yeah!
Well, I'm flyin' 'cross the land, tryin' to get a hand
Playin' in a travelin' band

Here we come again on a Saturday night
With your fussin' and your fightin' won't you get me to the rhyme
I wanna move
Playin' in a travelin' band
Yeah!
Well, I'm flyin' 'cross the land, tryin' to get a hand
Playin' in a travelin' band

Won't you give myself a hand

Come on, arise and win.
We're goin' up around the bend.
Ooh.

Bring a song and a smile
For the banjo.
Better get while the gettin's good.
Hitch a ride to the end
Of the highway
Where the neon's turn to wood.

Come on, arise and win.
We're goin' up around the bend.
Ooh.

You can ponder
Perpetual motion.
Get your mind on the 'Frisco Bay.
Always time for
Good conversation.
There's an ear for what you say.

Come on, arise and win.
We're goin' up around the bend.
Yeah.
Ooh.

Catch a ride to the end
Of the highway
And we'll meet by the big red tree.
There's a place up ahead
And I'm goin'.
Come along, come along with me.

Come on, arise and win.
We're goin' up around the bend.
Yeah.

Do, do, do, do.
Do, do, do, do.
Do, do, do, do.
Do, do, do, do, yeah.
Do, do, do, do
