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.
Purple haze was in my eyes
don't know if it's day or night
You got me blowin, blowin my mind
is it tomorrow or just the end of time?
Manic Depression
Manic Depression's touching 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 finger, fingers
manic depression's captured my soul
Woman so willing 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's a frustrating mess
Well, I think I'll go turn myself off an' go on down
really ain't no use me hanging around
oh, I gotta see you
Hey Joe
Hey Joe, where you goin with that gun in your hand ?
Hey Joe, I said where you goin with that gun in your hand ?
I'm goin down to shoot my old lady - you know I caught her messin round with another man
I'm goin down to shoot my old lady - you know I caught her messin round with another man
n that ain't too cool
Hey Joe, I heard you shot your woman down - you shot her down, down
Hey Joe, I heard you shot your old lady down - you shot her down to the ground
Yes, I did, I shot her - you know I caught her messin round, messin round town
Uh, yes I did, I shot her - you know I caught my old lady messin round town
n I gave her the gun... I shot her
Hey Joe, where you gonna run to now... where you gonna run to ?
Hey Joe, where you goin' to run to now... where you, where you gonna go?
I'm goin way down south - way down to Mexico way, alright
I'm goin way down south - way down where I can be free
ain't no one gonna find me
Ain't no hangman gonna... he ain't gonna put a rope around me
you better belive it right now... I gotta go now
Hey, hey, hey Joe... you better run on down
goodbye everybody
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?
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 the 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 choose your ways.
Come with me for a million days,
Oh, my waterfall.
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.
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 dress in red.
And the wind whispers Mary.
A broom is drearily sweeping
up the broken pieces of yesterday's life.
Somewhere a Queen is weeping,
somewhere a King has no wife.
And the wind it cries Mary.
The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed,
The tiny island sags downstream
'Cos the life that they lived is dead.
And the wind screams Mary.
Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown 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.
Fire
Alright,
now listen, baby
You don't care for me
I don'-a care about that
Gotta new fool, ha!

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

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
Third 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

Are You Experienced?
If you can just get your mind together
then come 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 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
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
Stone Free
every day of the week i'm in a different city

but they don't realize they're the ones who're square
and that's why
you can't hold me down

stone free - to ride the breeze
stone free - i can't stay

but they don't realize that it's so easy to break

Highway Chile
Yeah
His guitar slung across his back
His dusty boots is his Cadillac
Flamin hair just a blowin in the wind
Aint seen a bed in so long its 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 couldnt 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 with glory
Now you'd probably call him a tramp
But I know it goes a little deeper than that
Hes a highway chile
Walk on brother, yeah
One more brother
His old guitar slung across his back
His dusty boots, it's his cadillac
Flamin hair just a blowin in the wind
Aint seen a bed in so long its 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
Dont let no one stop you
Highway chile
Go on down the highway
