Run For Cover

+ A Change Is Gonna Come

(Otis Redding)

I was born by a river, oh man, in this little old tent, oh

Just like this river, I've been running ever since

It's been a long, long time coming

But I know, but I know, a change is gotta come

Ooo yes it is

Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my

It's been too hard living, oh my

And I'm afraid to die

I don't know what's up there

Beyond the clouds

It's been a long, long time coming

But I know, but I know a change is gotta come

Oh yes it is

Oh my, oh my, oh my

There's a time I would go to my brother, oh my

I asked my brother, "Will you help me please?", oh my oh my

He turned me down and then I ask my dear mother, oh

I said "Mother!"

I said "Mother! I'm down on my knees"

It's been a time that I thought

Lord this couldn't last for very long, oh now

But somehow I thought I was still able to try to carry on

It's been a long, long time coming

But I know a change is gonna come

Oh, yes it is

Just like I said, I went to my little bitty brother, oh my little brother now

I asked my brother "Brother help me please?", oh now

He turned me down and then I go to my little mother, my dear mother, oh my

I said "Mother!"

I said "Mother! I'm down on my knees"

But there was a time that I thought

Lord this couldn't last for very long, oh my

Somehow I thought I was still able to try to carry on

It's been a long, long time coming

But I know, but I know a change is gotta come, ooo

It's been so long, it's been so long, a little too long

A change has gotta come

So tired, so tired of standing by myself

And standing up alone

A change has gotta come

You know and I know, and you know that I know

I know that you know, honey

That a change is gonna come oh yeah oh, I gotta

+ It's all Over Now Baby Blue

(Bob Dylan)

You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last

But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast

Yonder stands your orphan with his gun

Crying like a fire in the sun

Look out, the saints are comin' through

And it's all over now, Baby Blue

The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense

Take what you have gathered from coincidence

The empty-handed painter from your streets

Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets

The sky too is folding under you

And it's all over now, Baby Blue

All your seasick sailors, they're all rowing home

Your empty-handed army is all going home

Your lover who just walked out the door

Has taken all his blankets from the floor

The carpet too is moving under you

And it's all over now, Baby Blue

Leave your stepping stones behind there, something calls for you

Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you

The vagabond who's rapping at your door

Is standing in the clothes that you once wore

Strike another match, go start anew

And it's all over now, Baby Blue

+ I'd Rather Go Blind

(Etta James)

Something told me it was over

When I saw you and her talking

Something deep down in my soul said, "Cry Girl"

When I saw you and that girl, walking out

I would rather, I would rather go blind boy

Than to see you, walk away from me child, and all

So you see, I love you so much

That I don't want to watch you leave me baby

Most of all, I just don't, I just don't want to be free no

I was just, I was just, I was just sitting here thinking

Of your kisses and your warm embrace, yeah

When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now baby

Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah

And baby, baby, I would rather, I would rather be blind boy

Than to see you walk away, see you walk away from me, yeah

Baby, baby, baby, I'd rather be blind now

+ Honest I Do

(Jimmy Reed)

Don't cha know that I love you?

Honest I do

I'd never placed, no one above you

Please tell me you love me

Stop drivin' me mad

You the sweetest little woman

That I ever had

I told ya I love you

Stop drivin' me mad

When I woke up this mo'nin'

I never felt so bad

+ All My Tears

(Emmylou Harris)

When I go, don't cry for me

In my father's arms I'll be

The wounds this world left on my sou

L will all be healed, and I'll be whole

Sun and moon will be replaced with the light of Jesus' face

And I will not be ashamed, for my savior knows my name

It don't matter where you bury me

I'll be home and I'll be free

It don't matter where I lay

All my tears be washed away

Gold and silver blind the eye, temporary riches lie

So come and eat from Heaven's store

Come and drink, and thirst no more

So weep not for me, my friend

When my time below does end

For my life belongs to him

Who will raise from the dead again

It don't matter where you bury me

I'll be home and I'll be free

It don't matter where I lay

All my tears be washed away

+ Bring It on Home

If you ever change your mind

About leaving, leaving me behind

Oh, oh, bring it to me

Bring your sweet loving

But now I know I only hurt myself

Oh, oh, bring it to me

That ain't all, that ain't all I'll do for you

You know I'll always be your slave

'Till I'm buried, buried in my grave

Oh, honey bring it to me

Bring your sweet loving

One more thing

+ Going Back to Memphis

(Chuck Berry)

I've been struggling up here, child, trying to make a living

Everybody wants to take, nobody like giving

I wish I was in Memphis back home there with my Mama

The only clothes I got left that ain't rags is my pajamas

No brotherly love, no help, no danger

Just a great big town full of cold hearted strangers

I went hungry in New York and Chicago was no better

But today, my dear mother wrote and told me in her letter

Son, come back to Memphis and live here with your Mama

You can walk down Beale Street, honey, wearing your pajamas

You know home folks here, we let do just what you want to

And I born you and raised you right here on the corner

I'm going to leave here in the morning and walk down to the station

I've got just enough money to pay my transportation

I'm going back to Memphis, back home with my Mama

If I have to ride that bus barefooted in pajamas

Back home in Memphis, no moaning and groaning

I know everything will be all right in the morning

+ You Really Got A Hold On Me

(The Beatles)

I don't like you

But I love you

Seems that I'm always

Thinking of you

Oh, oh, oh

You treat me badly

I love you madly

You've really got a hold on me

(You really got a hold on me)

You really got a hold on me

(You really got a hold on me)

Baby

I don't want you

But I need you

Don't want to kiss you

But I need to

Oh, oh, oh

You do me wrong now

My love is strong now

You've really got a hold on me

(You really got a hold on me)

You really got a hold on me

(You really got a hold on me)

Baby

I love you and all I want you to do

Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me

Tighter

Tighter

I want to leave you

Don't want to stay here

Don't want to spend

Another day here

Oh, oh, oh, I want to split now

I just can't quit now

You've really got a hold on me

(You really got a hold on me)

You really got a hold on me

(You really got a hold on me)

Is just hold me, please, hold me, squeeze, hold me, hold me

You really got a hold on me

(You really got a hold on me)

You really got a hold on me

(You really got a hold on me)

+ Bother Worrier

(Kate Wolf)

Gentle warrior

With your heart like gold and a rainbow in your eyes

Brave companion

Do you see a world shining in the sky?

With your body dancing like an arrow

Spreading joy beneath your feet

And your hands they wave like tall grass

In the wind as you speak

With the shyness of a small child

And the wisdom of a saint

I tell ya now

There is no reason to be afraid

Brother warrior

There are none of us who walk this path alone

Spirit healer is the only life that we have ever known

I see your smile in the sunlight

I hear your song in the rain

And I hold you here inside me

Feel your love and know your pain

At this time when the earth is waking

To the dawn of another age

I tell ya now

There is no reason to be afraid

We are crying for a vision

That all living things can share

And those who care

Are with us everywhere

+ Lowlands

(Nitty Gritty Dirt Band)

She told me she'd be waiting, I'm not so sure she is

I heard that there's another man who claims that she is his.

They will be my deathbed when I've past my time.

Well, it started to rain and continued several days

They will be my deathbed when I've past my time.

You know that I'm no failure though my victories are few

I'm trying my best but there's too much here to do

That girl I love once told me I made here feel secure

It's hard to think I've been replaced., nothing does endure.

They will be my deathbed when I've past my time.
