All I Really Want To Do
I aint lookin to compete with you,
Beat or cheat or mistreat you,
Simplify you, classify you,
Deny, defy or crucify you.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.
No, and I aint lookin to fight with you,
Frighten you or tighten you,
Drag you down or drain you down,
Chain you down or bring you down.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.
I aint lookin to block you up
Shock or knock or lock you up,
Analyze you, categorize you,
Finalize you or advertise you.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.
I dont want to straight-face you,
Race or chase you, track or trace you,

Tears Of Rage
We carried you in our arms
On independence day,
And now youd throw us all aside
And put us on our way.
Oh what dear daughter neath the sun
Would treat a father so,
To wait upon him hand and foot
And always tell him, no?
Tears of rage, tears of grief,
Why must I always be the thief?
Come to me now, you know
Were so alone
And life is brief.
We pointed out the way to go
And scratched your name in sand,
Though you just thought it was nothing more
Than a place for you to stand.
Now, I want you to know that while we watched,
You discover there was no one true.
Most evrybody really thought

Nobody cept You
Theres nothing round here I believe in
cept you, yeah you
And theres nothing to me thats sacred
cept you, yeah you
Youre the one that reaches me
Youre the one that I admire
Every time we meet together
My soul feels like its on fire
Nothing matters to me
And theres nothing I desire
cept you, yeah you
Nothing round here I care to try for
cept you, yeah you
Got nothing left to live or die for
cept you, yeah you
Theres a hymn I used to hear
In the churches all the time
Make me feel so good inside
So peaceful, so sublime
And theres nothing to remind me of that

Goin To Acapulco
Im going down to rose maries
She never does me wrong.
She puts it to me plain as day
And gives it to me for a song.
Its a wicked life but what the hell
The stars aint falling down.
Im standing outside the taj mahal
I dont see no one around.
Goin to acapulco
Goin on the run.
Goin down to see fat gut
Goin to have some fun.
Yeah goin to have some fun.
Now, whenever I get up
And I aint got what I see
I just make it down to rose maries
bout a quarter after three.
There are worse ways of getting there
And I aint complainin none.
If the clouds dont drop and the train dont stop

Had A Dream About You Baby (take 1)
by Bob Dylan
I got to see you baby, I don't care
It may be someplace, baby, you say where.
I had a dream about you, baby
Had a dream about you, baby
Late last night you come a-rollin' across my mind
You got the crazy rhythm when you walk
You make me nervous when you start to talk
I had a dream about you, baby
Had a dream about you, baby
Late last night you come a-rollin' across my mind
Standin' on the highway, you flag me down
Said, take me daddy, to the nearest town
I had a dream about you, baby
Had a dream about you, baby
Late last night you come a-rollin' across my mind
The joint is jumpin'
It's really somethin'
The beat is pumpin'
My heart is thumpin'

If You Gotta Go, Go Now
Listen to me, baby,
Theres something you must see.
I want to be with you, gal,
If you want to be with me.
But if you got to go,
Its all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.
It aint that Im questionin you.
To take part in any quiz.
Its just that I aint got no watch
An you keep askin me what time it is.
But if you got to go,
Its all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.
I am just a poor boy, baby,
Lookin to connect.
But I certainly dont want you thinkin
That I aint got any respect.

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down
Virgil caine is the name,
And I served on the danville train,
til stonemans cavalry
Came and tore up the tracks again.
In the winter of 65,
We were hungry, just barely alive.
By may the tenth, richmond had fell,
Its a time I remember, oh so well,
The night they drove old dixie down,
And the bells were ringing,
The night they drove old dixie down,
And the people were singin.
They went
La, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la,
Back with my wife in tennessee,
When one day she called to me,
Virgil, quick, come see,
There goes robert e. lee!

Trouble
Trouble in the city, trouble in the farm,
You got your rabbits foot, you got your good-luck charm.
But they cant help you none when theres trouble.
Trouble,
Trouble, trouble, trouble,
Nothin but trouble.
Trouble in the water, trouble in the air,
Go all the way to the other side of the world, youll find trouble there.
Revolution even aint no solution for trouble.
Trouble,
Trouble, trouble, trouble,
Nothin but trouble.
Drought and starvation, packaging of the soul,
Persecution, execution, governments out of control.
You can see the writing on the wall inviting trouble.
Trouble,
Trouble, trouble, trouble,
Nothin but trouble.
Put your ear to the train tracks, put your ear to the ground,
You ever feel like youre never alone even when theres nobody else around?

I Wanna Be Your Lover
Well, the rainman comes with his magic wand
And the judge says, mona cant have no bond.
And the walls collide, mona cries,
And the rainman leaves in the wolfmans disguise.
I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man.
I wanna be your lover, baby,
I dont wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
Well, the undertaker in his midnight suit
Says to the masked man, aint you cute!
Well, the mask man he gets up on the shelf
And he says, you aint so bad yourself.
I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man.
I wanna be your lover, baby,
I dont wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
Well, jumpin judy cant go no higher.
She had bullets in her eyes, and they fire.
Rasputin hes so dignified,
He touched the back of her head an he died.
I wanna be your lover, baby, I wanna be your man.
I wanna be your lover, baby,
