Shades Of Deep Purple (remaster) lyrics

(Blackmore / Lord)

(instrumental)

(South)

I got a certan little girl she's on my mind
No doubt about it she looks so fine
She's the best girl that I ever had
Sometimes she's gonna make me feel so bad

Hush, hush
I thought I heard her calling my name now
Hush, hush
She broke my heart but I love her just the same now
Hush, hush
Thought I heard her calling my name now
Hush, hush
I need her loving and I'm not to blame now

Maybe it's because I'm only starting
That I think it won't take too long
Maybe it's because I can see you laughing
That I think you've got it wrong
Maybe I could be like Robin Hood
Like and outlaw dressed all in green
Someone said what's he gonna turn out like
And someone else said never mind
Well I was big and bold and more than twice as old
As all the cats I'd ever seen

(Blackmore/Evans/Lord)

I've got a Mandrake Root
It's some thunder in my brain
I feed it to my babe
She thunders just the same
Food of love sets her flame
Ah, stick it up

I've got the Mandrake Root
Baby's just the same
She still feels a quiver
She's still got the flame
She slows down, slows right down
I've got the power

(Lennon/McCartney)

When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind, opened up the door

Help if you can I'm feeling down
But I do appreciate you being round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please help me

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways

(Blackmore/Evans)

Vibrant flashes in my mind
Remind me of a foregone time
Blackened faces, broken romance
Blackened faces

My broken heart has bled
With memories of a love that's dead
Sometimes happy then sad
I need love, love help me

[Passing by the grounds of time]
Memories that are only mine
Looking for love, a brand new love
Looking for love

Dreams that are hard to see

(Roberts)

Hey Joe
Where you going with that gun in your hand
Hey Joe
Now tell me where you going with that gun in your hand
I'm gonna shoot my lady
Cos I caught her messing around with another man
Yes, I'm going down to shoot my lady
Cos I caught her messing around with another man

Hey Joe
I heard you shot your woman down
Hey Joe
I heard you shot your woman down
Right down to the ground

Walk through the night looking for your kind of smile

?Hoping to meet you I walk my love for miles

Your face, your eyes, I can't find the girl I look for

refrain:

Shadows can conceal you

you can't hide, so please don't try

Your life and my love

But to search just makes me cry

Life was so young and another day is gone

Love seems a lost word

How can my heart be strong

(Blackmore/Evans)

Vibrant flashes in my mind
Remind me of a foregone time
Blackened faces, broken romance
Blackened faces

My broken heart has bled
With memories of a love that's dead
Sometimes happy then sad
I need love, love help me

[Passing by the grounds of time]
Memories that are only mine
Looking for love, a brand new love
Looking for love

Dreams that are hard to see

(Lennon/McCartney)

When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind, opened up the door

Help if you can I'm feeling down
But I do appreciate you being round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please help me

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways

(Roberts)

Hey Joe
Where you going with that gun in your hand
Hey Joe
Now tell me where you going with that gun in your hand
I'm gonna shoot my lady
Cos I caught her messing around with another man
Yes, I'm going down to shoot my lady
Cos I caught her messing around with another man

Hey Joe
I heard you shot your woman down
Hey Joe
I heard you shot your woman down
Right down to the ground

Hush, hush

Hush, hush

Hush, hush
