Lyrics:
one to turn to when she's not there
Ah, but it's all right, I'll get by
Miles apart
Left here standing with a broken heart
Call me names but I
parents live in fear
I just wanna make it clear
My influence run deep like the ocean
Don't get it fucked up
Been away from home
Been away from home
skill
That I inherited this ground is denied by this stone I've found but when and by who
Come join me in my tracks then let's stop and look back
as the coal.
Somebody said, "That's a strange tattoo you have on the side of your head"
I said, "That's the blueprint left by the coal. A little more and I
some fishes
Who were eaten by some fishes
And swallowed by a whale
Who grew so old he decomposed
He died and left his body
To the bottom
fishes
Who were eaten by some fishes
And swallowed by a whale
Who grew so old he decomposed
He died and left his body
To the bottom of the ocean
Now
in the wintertime, whatever just to see you smile
Private jet from time to time, by the ocean, I'll drive you wild
Whatever your decision, I'm with
away down by the Dixie Highway,
Yeah, down by the Dixie Highway.
My love, my love, movin' to the left now, movin' to the right.
My love, my love,
I'm a brand new man, I'm a conscious man
I'm a man who's burnin' for you
The mistakes I've made have been chased away to the bottom of the ocean
think I'll take my foolish pride, put it on a southbound freight and ride,
Go on back to the ones I left, who've been waitin' for so long
I want to go
Last year, when I wrote you my last letter
The beginning of my future poetry
I acknowledged who you really were for the first time
I didn't call
(Words and Music by Joan Baez)
Don't worry about my politics
They are what they are
I work best when I get some rest
Right now I'm in a bar
promises you somehow failed to keep
He can't blame me
He's the one who left me too many times alone
In a three bedroom prison
I tried to make a home
I left Louisiana, I had me big plans
To go out and take me all over this land.
To see me the world, I left my sweet girl
And gave it a whirl but
They'd prosper in this land
Still I know some
Who've never seen the ocean
Or set one foot on a velvet bed of sand
They've got their treasure laying
I left Louisianan, I had me big plans
To go out and take me all over this land.
To see me the world, I left my sweet girl
And gave it a whirl but
I am a young maiden, my story is sad
For once I was carefree and in love with a lad
He courted me sweetly by night and by day
But now he has left
My father married a pure Cherokee
My mother's people were ashamed of me
The Indians said I was white by law
The white man always called me
not the way
No sense or reason in your fussing and fighting
And your violent obsession
Who's ever really left feeling fine
After the great
I left the four lane highway took a blacktop seven miles
Down by the old country school I went to as a child
Two miles down a gravel road I could
Along by the canal
You can see the remnants of last night's reverie
As left by the local tenants
But these aren't the gifts they give free in
There is a city by the sea
A gentle company
I don't suppose you want to?
And as it tells its sorry tale
In harrowing detail
Its hollowness
your last song very well"
They tossed him in the ocean, 'cause their hearts were made in hell
Came along a dolphin, he said, "Jolly Mon hello

and he said you'll be knowin'
For I'm gonna make a showin' and you'll someday see
Well I stood there by the ocean I suddenly had the notion
