The Guess Who

The Guess Who are a Canadian rock band from Winnipeg, Manitoba. Initially gaining recognition in Canada, they also found international success from the late 1960s through the mid-1970s with numerous hit singles, including "American Woman", "These Eyes" and "Share the Land". Several former members of The Guess Who, notably Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman (of Bachman–Turner Overdrive), have also found considerable success outside the band. more »

Sure like to boogie after death comes calling
Sure like rocking when I'm far away
"Oh Pooh Pah Doo" is letting Jesse watch the heavens
Paint another picture while you're turning gray
Everything I knew about was always American
Skip a stone lightly and you'll be okay
Never really get my rocking feet to moving

Till somebody's singing "Not Fade Away"
Got mystery train fever, and I'm a believer
And go down Moses, and I'll send you red roses
Despair, and death at an early age
You sang about trucking and the band had it moving

If you were a lizard then you might be gone
A little self-indulgence never moved a mountain
Don't need the fiddler yelling "Yeah, right on!"
You're my angel from a wet salvation
You can buy and sell me so you shine me on

Your mama worked hard and the acid made you think about it
Why, mother water, are the days all gone
Got mystery train fever, and I'm a believer
And go down Moses, and I'll send you red roses
Despair, and death at an early age
