Burnin' Sky
Album - 3 marzo 1977 - Debaser id 204565

The sky is burnin'
I believe my soul's on fire
You right, I'm learning, the key to my desire

Waiting for the van arrive
The prisoners werw lined up outside
Jumped a wall, hitched a ride and now I'm here to stay
Love you baby anyway

The sky is burnin'
I believe my soul's on fire
You right, I'm learning the key to my desire

Ran across the country fields in all the rain
They had guns and dogs and everything
Swam the river tryin' to lose my trail
But they caught me; under the bridge, Who yeah!

The sky is burnin'
I believe my soul's on fire
You right, I'm learning the key to my desire, oh yeah

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
Yeah it's burnin' babe
I believe my soul's 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
Out to see you baby
Yeah it's burnin' babe
Oh, burnin'
I believe my soul's on fire
Oh, burnin'
Ah, yeah, ah oh ...

Oh darling be mine tonight

Wont you be my baby and treat me right

Oh darling you know you're my only love

Baby baby like the sun above

She got a heart of gold and something i call soul

She got everything i need ain't no flies on me

Oh baby won't you love me tonight
Oh baby i'm gonna treat you right

Take my hand and hold me tight

Take you in my arms and love you tonight



She got a heart of gold and something i call soul

She got everything i need ain't no flies on me

Baby when you wrote that letter

It went right to my heart

When i opened the envelope

I kew we were going to part

Oh-u-oh-u baby baby don't you treat me like a fool

Because baby baby i once went to school
Oh you know that i love you and i always will

Oh baby you sent me your bill

I don't wanna lose myself in love again
But my heart beat keeps on hammering.

I met a little cuttie back in '66
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 thats the only way I get my kicks.

I don't wanna lose myself in love again
But my heart beat keeps on hammering.

Been around the world about a time and again
Met a little chick in a 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 heart beat keeps on hammering.

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 and keep you now don't be afraid.

I don't wanna lose myself in love again
But my heart beat keeps on hammering
Don't wanna lose myself in love again
But my heart beat keeps on hammering.

Some people like to rock some people like to rollSome people like to walk some people like to rideSome people like to fly some people prefer the train rideIs sixteen coaches long
Yeah the train ride is sixteen coaches long
You say you wanna change society but you live onYou say you want change societyAnd you say you want to want to be free
People got to learn to live togetherPeople got to learn to live togetherYou can be communist a liberal conservative labor orAnything you want to beYou can be a red neck jewish man thats allright with meWe got to learn to live together


You can be a black you can be white you can be green yellow blue pinkPurple or red indian bloodYou can be anything that you wanny be please pleaseLets learn to live together
I ain`t never been to the ghetto in my life beforeBut I can understand some whites don`t have it too cool eitherDon`t quote me in saying everybody has a chance to danceHas a chance to romance a chance to danceAnd has a chance to do anything they want to doThere ain`t there ain`t no god that says you can`t enjoy your lifeThere ain`t no master of ceremony that can fill your lifeWith worry and strifeChoose your own direction
