Have you heard Baby What the winds blowing down Have you heard Baby A lot of peoples coming right on down. Communication coming on strong it don't give a damn Baby if your hair is short or long I said get out of your grave Everybody is dancing in the street Do what you know don't be slow You gotta practice what you preach Cause it's time for you and me. Forget about the past Baby Things ain't what they use to be Keep on Straight Ahead We got to stand side by side We got to stand together and organize They say power to the people Thats what they're screamin' Freedom of the soul Pass it on, pass it on to the young and old. You got to tell me the children the truth they don't need a whole lot of lies Cause one of these days Baby They'll be running things.

[B]Astro Man[/B] A little boy inside a dream just the other day His mind fell out of his face and the wind blew it away A hand came out from heaven and pinned a badge on his chest And said get out there, man, and do your best They called him Astro Man and he's flying higher than That old faggot Superman ever could And they call his cosmic Nut And he's twice as fast as Donald Duck And he'll try his best to screw you up and mess your mind He's gonna blow out the rest of your mind If you're looking for a piece of mind Astro Man, give me a piece of it... [B]Angel[/B] Angel came down from heaven yesterday She stayed with me just long enough to rescue me And she told me a story yesterday About the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea Then she spread her wings over me She said she's gonna come back tomorrow And I said "Fly on, my sweet Angel Fly on to the sky Fly on, my sweet Angel Tomorrow I'm gonna be by your side Sure enough, this woman came home to me Silver wings silhouetted against a child's sunrise And my Angel, she said into me "Today is the day for you to rise Take my hand, you're gonna be my man You're gonna rise" Then she took me high over younder And I said "Fly on, my sweet Angel Fly on to the sky Fly on, my sweet Angel Tomorrow I'm gonna be by your side [B]In From The Storm[/B] Well I, I just came back today, I just came back from the storm Said, I just came back, baby, I just came back from the storm Well I did not know it then, but I was suffering, suffering For my love to keep me warm It was so cold and lonely, the wind was crying And the rain was tearing me up I was so cold and lonely The crying blue rain was tearing me up I want to thank you, my sweet darling... For digging in the mud and picking me up [B]Belly Button Window Hey Joe.[/B] (Traditional, arr. by Hendrix) Hey Joe, where ya going with that gun in your hand I'm going out and find my woman now She's been running 'round with some other man Hey Joe, tell me what are ya gonna do Well I guess I'll shoot my woman, that's what I'll do Well I guess I'll shoot 'em both before I'm through And there ain't gonna be no hangman's ropes Gonna be put around me Hey Joe, tell me what are ya gonna do Well I think I'll go down to my favourite place - Mexico Well I think I'll go down to where a man can be free And there ain't gonna be no hangman's ropes Gonna be put around me [/QUOTE]
