I'm sure you've smelled the trees in the air. The best of motor cruisin's just the joy to get there. I was approachin' Simonton down by the cotton gin. There was old man Berkman trying to flag me in. He asked if I would stay awhile and if I needed gas. I said, "No thanks, anyhow I don't drive too fast." Hallelujah, hallelujah, ride my Chevrolet. Hallelujah, hallelujah, ride my Chevrolet. I took the road down to Cinco through that red Brazos River land, done hit that freeway at sunset. Now the big city lights are at hand. Hallelujah, hallelujah, ride my Chevrolet. Hallelujah, hallelujah, ride my Chevrolet. |

CROSS-EYED MARY Anderson (Original by Jethro Tull, on album Aqualung) Who would be a poor man a beggerman, a thief if he had a rich man in his hand Who would steal the candy from a laughing baby's mouth if he could take it from the money man Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again She signs no contract but she always plays the game She dines in Hampstead village on expense accounted gruel and the jack knife barber drops her off at school Laughing in the playground gets no kicks from little boys would rather make it with a letching gray Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung who watches through the railings as they play Cross-eyed Mary finds it hard to get along. She's a poor man's rich girl and she'll do it for a song She's a rich man's stealer but her favour's good and strong She's the Robin Hood of Highgate helps the poor man get along |

MASSACRE Lynott/Gorham/Downey (Original by Thin Lizzy, on album Johnny The Fox) At a point below zero There's no place left to go Six hundred unknown heroes Were killed like sleeping buffalo Through the devil's canyon Across the battlefield Death has no companion The spirit is forced to yield There goes the bandolero Through the hole in the wall He's a coward but doesn't care though In fact, he doesn't care at all The general that's commanding He's defending what he fears While the troops they are depending On reinforcements from the rear If God is in the heavens How can this happen here? In His name, they used the weapons For the massacre There is a point below zero Where the sun can see the land Six hundred unknown heroes Lay dead in the sand |
