The sky is burnin' I believe my soul's on fire,
You are, I'm learning, the key to my desire.
Waiting for the van to arrive,
The prisoners were lined
up outside.
Jumped a wall, hitcheda ride, and
now I'm here
to say;
Love you, baby, anyway, oh, yeah.
The sky is burnin' I believe my soul is on fire,
You are, I'm learning, the key to my desire.
Ran across the country fields,
In all terrain, they had guns and dogs and everything.
Swam a river try'n to lose my trail,
But they caught me, under the bridge. Oh yeah!
The sky is burnin' I believe my soul's on fire,
You are, I'm learning, the key to my desire.
Oh, yeah.
The sky is burnin' I believe my soul's on fire,
You are, I am learning, the key to my desire.
The judge said, 'this man's a danger to humanity,
We're gonna lock him up and throw away the key'
Now, baby, your love has sent me to jail
But I'd rather die than see you with another man
It's burnin' baby, mm, mm; I believe my souls on fire
I believe my souls on fire,
Working on the railroad, every day
But they can't keep me here
And I'm not gonna stay
I got to get outta this place
I'll see you, baby.
It's burnin', yeah, it's burnin'.
I believe my souls on fire,
Keep on burnin',
Ah, yeah, yeah, ah, oh, oho. Keep on burnin'

The morning sun comes thru my window
All night long I have been waiting
We who are constantly moving
Leaving part of us behind
She moves across the room with easy grace
Mona lisa smiles up on her face
I who am completely mesmerized
By the sunlight in her eyes
Morning sun comes thru my windows
All night long I have been waiting
We who are constantly moving
Leaving part of us behind
Moves across the room with easy grace
Mona lisa smiles up on her face
I who am completely mesmerized
By the sunlight in her eyes
And the morning sun comes thru my window
All night long I have been waiting
We who are constantly moving
Leaving part of us behind

You loved me and you made me what I am today
You loved me and you gave in ev'ry single way
You loved me and gave it all so tenderly
You loved me but I'm telling you now on bended knee
I'm leaving you baby
I'm leaving you baby
I was dirty and you took me home and washed my face
I was nowhere and you gave me a home a resting place
I was nothing and you gave me something to live for
I was nowhere I wanna tell you now like never before
I'm leaving you baby
I'm leaving you baby
I'm leaving you baby
I was .......I'm
I'm a leaving you baby
I was dirty and you took me home and washed my face
I was nowhere and you gave me a home a resting place
I was nothing and you gave me something to live for
I was nowhere I wanna tell you now like never before

My life is like water and I'm floating in the sea
But i have a root in the water
And it's reaching stretching endlessly
My love flying in the sky
And far away from the water she lies
Sometimes big wave coming when I'm down
But soon i stand on up again
My life is like water and I'm floating in the sea
My soul is a stream on the water
I was born reaching endlessly
My life is like water and I'm floating in the sea
My soul is a stream on the water
I was born reaching endlessly

I don't wanna lose myself in love again,
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering, yeah.
I met a little cutie back in sixty-
six, She used to tie you up
And beat you with a walking stick.
I said, 'Mama, call a doctor you
must be sick!'
She told me that's the only way I
get my kicks.
I don't wanna lose myself in love again,
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering.
I been around the world about a
time and again,
I met a little chick in an opium
den.
She put a spell on me that'd freeze
a man,
I said, 'help me, save me', but she
did it again.
I don't wanna lose myself in love again,
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering,
yeah, ok.
Oh, oh, oh, yeah.
I met a little lady just yesterday,
Lord, she loves me in a special way.
She put coffee in my tea and she love to say,
'I wanna hold you, I wanna keep you, baby,
Now don't be afraid'.
I don't wanna lose myself in love again,
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering, yeah.
I don't wanna lose; I don't wanna lose,
I don't wanna lose;
I don't wanna lose myself in love again, yeah.
No, no, lord no.
I don't wanna lose myself in love again,
But my heartbeat, yes my beating heart,
My heartbeat keeps on hammering

Some people like to rock some people like to roll
Some people like to walk some people like to ride
Some people like to fly some people prefer the train ride
Is sixteen coaches long
Yeah the train ride is sixteen coaches long
You say you wanna change society but you live on
You say you want change society
And you say you want to want to be free
People got to learn to live together
People got to learn to live together
You can be communist a liberal conservative labor or
Anything you want to be
You can be a red neck jewish man thats allright with me
We got to learn to live together
You can be a black you can be white you can be green yellow blue pink
Purple or red indian blood
You can be anything that you wanny be please please
Lets learn to live together
I ain't never been to the ghetto in my life before
But I can understand some whites don't have it too cool either
Don't quote me in saying everybody has a chance to dance
Has a chance to romance a chance to dance
And has a chance to do anything they want to do
There ain't there ain't no god that says you can't enjoy your life
There ain't no master of ceremony that can fill your life
With worry and strife
Choose your own direction
