Because 02:21
It's right that I should care about you And try to make you happy when you're blue It's right, it's right to feel the way I do Because, because I love you It's wrong to say I don't think of you 'Cause when you say these things You know it makes me blue Give me one kiss and I'll be happy Just, just to be with you Give me, give me, a chance to be near you Because, because I love you
3.
Hold me close and tell me how you feel Tell me love is real Words of love you, whisper soft and true Darling, I love you Let me hear you say the words I want to hear Darling, when you're near Words of love you, whisper soft and true Darling, I love you

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, Little Jackie paper loved that rascal puff, And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff. oh Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee. Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail Jackie kept a lookout perched on puffs gigantic tail, Noble kings and princes would bow whene'r they came, Pirate ships would lower their flags when puff roared out his name. oh! Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee. A dragon lives forever but not so little boys Painted wings and giant strings make way for other toys. One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar. His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain, Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane. Without his life-long friend, puff could not be brave, So puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave. oh! Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee.

San Quentin 02:27
San Quentin, you've been livin' hell to me You've blistered me since 1963 I've seen 'em come and go and I've seen them die And long ago I stopped askin' why San Quentin, I hate every inch of you. You've cut me and you scarred me thru an' thru. And I'll walk out a wiser weaker man; Mr Congressman you can’t understand. San Quentin, what good do you think you do? Do you think I'll be different when you're through? You bent my heart and mind and you warped my soul, but your stone walls turn my blood a little cold. San Quentin, may you rot and burn in hell. May your walls fall and may I live to tell. May all the world forget you ever stood. And may all the world regret you did no good. San Quentin, I hate every inch of you.

When this old world starts getting me down And people are just too much for me to face I climb right up to the top of the stairs And all my cares just drift right into space On the roof, It’s peaceful as can be and there the world below can’t bother me Let me tell you now When I come home feelin' tired and beat I go up where the air is fresh and sweet I get away from the hustling crowd And all that rat race noise down in the street On the roof, the only place I know Where you just have to wish to make it so Let's go up on the roof At night the stars put on a show for free And darling, you can share it all with me I keep a tellin' you a-Right smack dab in the middle of town I found a paradise that's trouble proof And if this world starts getting you down There's room enough for two, up on the roof Up on the roof Oh, come on, baby Oh, come on, honey

Us And Them 07:33
Us, and them And after all we're only ordinary men. Me, and you. God only knows it's not what we would choose to do. Forward he cried,, from the rear and the front rank died. And the general sat, and the lines on the map moved from side to side. Black and blue And who knows which is which and who is who. Up and down. (but) And in the end it's only round and round. Haven't you heard it's a battle of words The poster bearer cried. Listen son, said the man, with the gu-u-u-n — There's room for you inside. "I mean, they're not gunna kill ya, so if you give 'em a quick short, sharp, shock, they won't do it again. Dig it? I mean he get off lightly, 'cos I would've given him a thrashing - I only hit him once! It was only a difference of opinion, but really...I mean good manners don't cost nothing do they, eh?" Down and out It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about. With, without. And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about? Out of the way, it's a busy day I've got things on my mind. For want of the price of tea and a slice The old man died.

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe, It don't matter, anyhow. And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe, If you don't know by now. When the rooster crows at the break of dawn, Look out your window and I'll be gone You're the reason I'm travelin' on, but Don't think twice it's all right. It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe, Light I never know'd It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe, I'm on the dark side of the road. Still I wish there-were somethin' - you would do or say To try and make me change my mind and stay, We never did too much talkin' anyway, so Don't think twice it's all right. I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe, Where I'm bound, I can't tell (but) goodbye is too good a word gal, So I'll just say "fair-thee-well" I ain't saying you treated me unkind, You could uhv done better, but I don't mind You just sorta wasted my precious time, but Don't think twice it's all right. It ain't no use in callin' out my name gal, Like you never did before It ain't no use in callin' out my name gal, I can't hear you anymore. I'm a thinkin' and a wonderin' all the way down the road I once loved a woman, a child I'm told, I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul, Don't think twice it's all right.

Please lock me away And don't allow the day Here inside, where I hide with my loneliness I don't care what they say I won't stay in a world without love Birds sing out of tune And rain clouds hide the moon I'm okay, here I stay with my loneliness I don't care what they say I won't stay in a world without love So I wait and in a while I will see my true love smile She may come, I know not when When she does, I'll lose So baby, until then Lock me away And don't allow the day Here inside, where I hide with my loneliness I don't care what they say I won't stay in a world without love So I wait and in a while I will see my true love smile She may come, I know not when When she does, I'll lose So baby, until then Lock me away And don't allow the day Here inside, where I hide with my loneliness I don't care what they say I won't stay in a world without love I don't care what they say I won't stay in a world without love

You, who are on the road Must have a code, that you can live by And so, become yourself Because the past, is just a good-bye. Teach, your children well, Their father's hell, did slowly go by, And feed, them on your dreams The one they picks, the one you'll know by. Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry, So just look at them and sigh-h And-know they love you. And you, of tender years, Can't know the fears that _your elders grew by, And so please help them with your youth, They seek the truth, before they can die. Teach, your parents well, The children's hell, will slowly go by, And feed them on your dreams The one they picks, the one you'll know by. Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry, So just look at them and sighhhhhhhh and know they love you.
