That was made into a movie also - I think.

Never met a millionaire, and tell you momma, I don't care. Never gonna own a race-horse or a fast back mid-engine Porsche. Don't think I'll own a private jet, on the Stock Exchange I'm no threat. So won't you help me make up my mind? Don't you think I'd better get myself back home? Sittin' in the moonlight glow, excuse me if my feelings show. Watchin' all the trucks go by, dreamin' up an alibi. You see, back home I'm considered the fool, but maybe they're right, I don't know. So can't you help make up my mind? Daddy says he'll buy me car to drive, just as far as I need. He wants me back at any

Wake up young man, it's time to wake up Your love affair has got to go For 10 long years, for 10 long years The leaves to rake up Slow suicide's no way to go, oh Blue, clouded grey You're not a crack up Dizzy and weakened by the haze Moving onward So an infection not a phase Yeah, oh The cracks and lines from where you gave up They make an easy man to read, oh For all the times you let them bleed you For little peace from God you plead, and beg For little peace from God you plead Ahhaahh, Yeah, Ahhaahh, Yeah, Ahhaahh, Yeah Wake up young man, wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake

Groovin' . . . on a Sunday afternoon Really couldn't get away too soon I can't imagine anything that's better The world is ours whenever we're together There ain't a place I'd like to be instead of . . .

May the smile on your face Come straight from your heart Takes a lady like you To write that for me To wake up with you Makes my morning so bright Wipes the sleep from my eyes When you tell me your dreams And it goes on and on Way beyond and out of reach It's a well known old secret Go and tell everyone Tell everyone The smile on your face Comes straight from your heart If you look you will find And you wrote that for me

Wow - that's cool. I just grabbed a show last night where they did You've Got To Hide Your Love Away for the first time - I think it is from last week sometime. I can't recall.

Looks like they played their "hits" set so to speak - at least you got to see them.

Anyone catch The Black Crowes set?

All men must have someone, have someone Who would never take advantage Of a love bright as the sun. Someone to understand them, And you just may be the one. All men must have someone, have someone Who would never take for granted All the pleasures and the fun. Someone to stand beside them And you just may be the one. I saw when you walked by The lovelight in your eye And I knew I must try To win you more than just a friend, I

Hello, baby hello Haven't seen your face for a while Have you quit doing time for me Or are you still the same spoiled child Hello, I said hello Is this the only place you thought to go Am I the only man you ever had Or am I just the last surviving friend that you know Harmony and me We're pretty good company Looking for an island In our boat upon the sea Harmony, gee I really love you And I want to love you forever And dream of the never, never, never leaving harmony Hello, baby hello Open up your heart and let your feelings flow You're not unlucky knowing me Keeping the speed real slow

The curtain rises on the scene With someone shouting to be free The play unfolds before my eyes There stands the actor who is me The sleeping hours takes us far From traffic, telephones and fear Put out your problems with the cat Escape until a bell you hear Our reasons are the same But there

Hope I was not out of line or something - I know how it is with people not reading signs so to speak.

Down in the graveyard where we have our tryst The air smells sweet, the air smells sick He never smiles, his mouth merely twists The breath in my lungs feels clinging and thick But I know his name, he's called Mr. D. And one of these days he's gonna set you free Human skulls is hangin' right 'round his neck The palms of my hands is clammy and wet Lord, I was dancin', dancin', dancin' so free Dancin', dancin', dancin' so free Dancin', Lord, keep your hand off me Dancin' with Mr. D., with Mr. D., with Mr. D. Will it be poison put in my glass Will it be slow or will it be fast? The bite of a

I think I lost it Let me know if you come across it Let me know if I let it fall Along a back road somewhere Money can't replace it No memory can erase it And I know I'm never gonna find Another one to compare Give me some love to fill me up Give me some time give me some stuff Give me a sign give me some kind of reason Are you heavy enough to make me stay I feel like I might blow away I thought I was in heaven But I was only dreamin I think I lost it Let me know if you come across it Let me know if I let it fall Along a back road somewhere Money can't replace it No memory can erase it And I

I played that song eight times in a row once.

God ain't jive For I can see his love As it runs alive 'N one by one Through fields of rusted wire The war has just begun Oh, cross over shame like the wise dove Who cares not for fame just for shy love 'N rejoice for the king ain't lost his throne, oh no He's still here, you are not alone Correct your heads For there's a new song rising High above the waves Go write your time Go sing it on the streets Go tell the world, but you go brave Oh my sweet instant Christian you are such a sly clown Too many questions, no replies now 'N rejoice for the king ain't lost his throne, oh no He's still here

Do you want to end up like John? You can't stay 17 forever.

I've been using that number for months with no problems.
