Lyrics:
ready to go
He jumps in his pirogue headed down the bayou
He's got fishing lines strung across the Louisiana Rivers
Gotta catch a big fish for us
Then says the judge, says he
"Oh, for life, Jim Jones, I'm sending you
Across the stormy sea
But take a tip before you ship
To join the iron gang
sticks and the wagons come
And the night falls on the setting sun
They massacred the buffalo
Kitty corner from the bank
The taxis run across my feet
This is Anna's song
I'm making love all night long
Take a bath in milk, and lay on your satin sheets
Laughing, smiling (oh, oh)
Lay a while in
This is Anna's song
I'm making love all night long
Take a bath in milk, and lay on your satin sheets
Laughing, smiling (oh, oh)
Lay a while in
sticks and the wagons come
And the night falls on the setting sun
They massacred the buffalo
Kitty corner from the bank
The taxis run across my feet
Kismet, answering love's command.
You, Misirlou, are a dream of delight in the night.
To an oasis, sprinkled by stars above,
Heaven will guide us
And the wagons come and the night falls
On the setting sun
They massacred the buffalo
Kitty corner from the bank
The taxis run across my feet
And my eyes have
Kismet, answering love's command.
You, Misirlou, are a dream of delight in the night.
To an oasis, sprinkled by stars above,
Heaven will guide us
Empty is the sky before the sun wakes up
Empty is the eyes of animals in cages
Empty, faces of women mourning
When everything's been taken from them
Kismet, answering love's command.
You, Misirlou, are a dream of delight in the night.
To an oasis, sprinkled by stars above,
Heaven will guide us
answering love's command
You, Misirlou, are a dream of delight in the night
To an oasis, sprinkled by stars above
Heaven will guide us, Allah will
to scream
But terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze
As horror looks you right between the eyes
You're paralyzed
'Cause this is
a ready to go, he jumps in
his pirogue headed down the bayou
He's got fishin' line strung across the 'Lousiana River
Got to catch a big fish for us
The sun will never go down
And we won't be this way forever
We gotta take it now
Just stay awake, stay awake
You can follow us to paradise
Just stay
before dark
Bought a ticket to New York City
One way out and no return
I watched the sun go down
Across the plains from Denver
Lord, how the western
On a bench, on the beach
Just before the sun had gone
I tried to reach you
Plain faced and falling fast
You looked so vacant like an empty shell
Kismet, answering love's command.
You, Misirlou, are a dream of delight in the night.
To an oasis, sprinkled by stars above,
Heaven will guide us
Kismet, answering love's command.
You, Misirlou, are a dream of delight in the night.
To an oasis, sprinkled by stars above,
Heaven will guide us
Let's take a walk
Just you and me
And talk of days gone by
Across the fields
Under the trees
Let's speak of you and I
While the whole world
,
Written on the page and in our hearts.
(chorus)
As sure as God made the sun to shine,
He made the rules we must all live by;
He loved us too much
sticks and the wagons come
And the night falls on the setting sun
They massacred the buffalo
Kitty corner from the bank
The taxis run across my feet
pickin' before the winter sets in
Now here while back when the crop was laid by
Remember who took us on a big fish fry
Caught a heap of catfish
Kismet, answering love's command.
You, Misirlou, are a dream of delight in the night.
To an oasis, sprinkled by stars above,
Heaven will guide us
