jimi hendrix - american woman

American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be

Don't come hanging around my door, I don't want to see your face no more
I got more important things to do than spend my time growin' old with you

Now woman, I said stay away
American woman, listen what I say

American woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be

Don't come knocking around my door, I don't wanna see your shadow no more
Colored lights can hypnotize, sparkle someone else's eyes

Now woman, I said get away
American woman, listen what I say

American woman, I said get way
American woman, listen what I say

Don't come hanging around my door, don't want to see your face no more
I don't need your war machines, I don't need your ghetto scenes
Colored lights can hypnotize, sparkle someone else's eyes

Now woman, I said get away
American woman, listen what I say

American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be

I gotta go, I gotta getta away
I'm gonna leave you woman, I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman, I'm gonna leave you woman

Bye, bye. bye, bye
Bye, bye... bye, bye

And you're no good for me and I'm no good foryou
Looking at you, right in the eye, tell you whatI'm gonna do
I'm gonna leave you woman, you know I gotta go
I'm gonna leave you woman, I gotta go
(American woman) I... gotta go

I gotta go, American woman, Yeah

jimi hendrix - sweet angel

Told me a story yesterday
About the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea
And when it was time for her to leave she spread her wings high over me
And said i shall return tomorrow

And i said fly on my sweet angel
Fly on through the sky
Fly on my sweet, sweet angel
Tomorrow i shall have you by my side

Sure enough this mornin' came to me
Silver wings silhouetted against the golden rose of today's sunrise
And the angel she bent down and told me
You'll never have to worry about this place just wipe your weepin' eyes
I'll take you where you've never been, you can fly
I looked around and i thought

Fly on my little angel
Fly on through the sky
Fly on my sweet angel
Tomorrow i'll be by your side
I got my wings to fly

Haha

jimi hendrix - all along the watchtower

There must be some kind of way out of here,
said the joker to the thief
theres too much confusion,
I cant get no relief.

Business men they drink my wine,
plow men dig my Earth,
none with a level on their mind,
nobody out of this world.

No reason to get excited,
the thief he kindly spoke,
there are many here among us,
who think that life is but a joke,
but you and I, we've been through that,
and this is not our fate,
so let stop talking falsely now,
the hour is getting late.

All along the watchtower,
princes kept the view,
while all the women came and went,
barefoot servants too.

Outside in the cold distance,
a wild cat did growl,
two riders were approaching,
and the wind began to howl.

All along the tower,
everywhere,

everywhere I went...

jimi hendrix - 1983

Hurrah, I awake from yesterday
Alive, but the war is here to stay
So my love, Catherina and me,
decide to take our last walk through the noise to the sea
Not to die but to reborn,
away from lands so battered and torn
Forever, forever

Oh say, can you see it's really such a mess
Every inch of Earth is a fighting nest
Giant pencil and lipstick tube shaped things,
Continue to rain and cause screaming pain
And the arctic stains from silver blue to bloody red
as our feet find the sand,
and the sea is straight ahead, straight up ahead

Well it's too bad that our friends, can't be with us today
Well it's too bad
The machine, that we built,
would never save us', that's what they say
(That's why they ain't coming with us today)
And they also said it's impossible for a man to live and breathe under
water, forever,
was their main complaint
And they also threw this in my face, they said:
Anyway, you know good and well it would be beyond the will of God,
and the grace of the King (grace of the King)
(Yeah, yeah)

So my darling and I make love in the sand,
to salute the last moment ever on dry land
Our machine, it has done its work, played its part well
Without a scratch on our bodies and we bid it farewell
Starfish and giant foams greet us with a smile
Before our heads go under we take a last look at the killing noise
Of the out of style, the out of style, out of style(oooh)...

jimi hendrix - voodoo child

Well, I stand up next to a mountain
And I chop it down with the edge of my hand

jimi hendrix - angel

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
And then she spread her wings high over me
She said she's gonna come back tomorrow

And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel,
Fly on through the sky,
Fly on my sweet angel,
Tomorrow I'm gonna be by your side"

Sure enough this morning came unto me
Silver wings silhouetted against the child's sunrise
And my angel she said unto me,
"Today is the day for you to rise
Take my hand, you're gonna be my man,
You're gonna rise"
And then she took high over yonder

And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel,
Fly on through the sky,
Fly on my sweet angel,
Forever I will be by your side"

jimi hendrix - litlle wing

Well, she's walking through the clouds
with a circus mind
that's running round.
Butterflies and zebras and moonbeams
and fairy tales,

That's all she ever thinks about ...

Riding with the wind.

When I'm sad, she comes to me
with a thousand smiles.
She gives to me free.

It's alright, she said,
it's alright.
Take anything you want from me,
You can take anything, anything.

Fly on, little wing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, little wing...

jimi hendrix - like a rolling stone

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
You thought they were all kiddin' you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin' out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And ask him do you want to make a deal?

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and theclowns
When they all did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn itbabe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

jimi hendrix - drifter s escape

Oh, help me in my weakness
I heard the drifter say
As they carried him from the court room
And were taking him away
Well, my trip hasn't been a pleasant one
And my time it isn't long
And i still do not know
What is was that i've done wrong

Well the judge he cast his robe aside
A tear came to his eye
Well you fail to understand, he said
Why must you even try
Outside the crowd was stirring
You could hear it from the door
Inside the judge was stepping down
While the jury cried for more, more, more
Cried for more, cried for more

Hey you better leave that boy's soul alone

Oh stop that passing the jury
Grab me a tendon and me a nurse
Oh, the trial was bad enough
Yes, but this is ten times worse
Just then bolt of lightning
Showed the court house out of shape
And while everybody knelt to pray
The drifter made his escape
The drifter did his escape
Yeah
So long

jimi hendrix - earth blues

Well, i see hands and attesting faces
Reachin' up but not quite touching the promised land
Well, i taste tears and a whole lot of previous years
Wasted
Saying 'lord please give us a helping hand'
Lord lord lord

Lord lord lord
Gonna be a whole lot of re-arranges
