Blood Sweat Tears 3 lyrics

(James Taylor)

Just yesterday mornin'

They let me know you were gone
Susan, the plans they made put an end to you

I walked out this mornin'

And I wrote down this song

I just can't remember who to send it to

I've seen fire and I've seen rain

I seen sunny days that I thought would never end

I see lonely times when I could not find a friend

(Richard Manuel)

Lonesome Susie

Never got the breaks
She's always losing

So she sits and cries and shakes

It's so hard just to watch her

And if I touch her,

Oh poor Susie

I'm wondrin' what to do

She just sits there, hoping for a friend

I don't fit here, but I may have a friend to lend

Maybe I mistook her

But I can't overlook her

Must be someone

(Steve Katz/Dick Halligan)

While the king and queen lie sleeping

And their daughters smile so nice.

Brothers wait through windows
And the peasants die for rice.

And here I'm standing naked

Laughing madly at the sun.

Though I wanted to sleep late today

The Battle's just begun.

Oh, the Devil in all his wisdom

The father in all his grace

(Nyro)

He's a runner and he'll run away,

Soon there'll be no man.
Woman ain't been born that can make him stay,

Woman get away while you can.

He's a runner and he'll run away

On the midnight train.

Woman ain't been born who can make him stay,

Come the judgement day,

Come the rain

He'll go running, don't ask him not to

You know he's got to go

(David Clayton-Thomas)

Ah, here she comes
Truckin'

Well, Lucy

Walkin' down main street lookin' down

Looks like a Wow!

Talk about it!

Stop lyin'

Stop lyin'

Stop lyin'

Lucy

(Incredible Trumpet Solo)

(DCT shouts until fade)

(David Clayton-Thomas)

Lucretia MacEvil

Little girl what's your game?

Hard luck and trouble
Bound to be your claim to fame

Tail-shakin' heart-breakin' truckin' through town

Each and every country-mother's son, hangin' 'round

Drive a young man insane

Evil that's your name

Lucretia MacEvil

That's the thing you're doin' fine

Back seat Delilah

Lisa, Listen to Me
Blood, Sweat & Tears

Once a girl I knew, all alone and unprepared.
Everyone she knew, runnin' scared.
Then she found him or maybe he found her.
His were gentle words she had never heard before.

He said, "Lisa, listen to me,
Don't you know where you belong?
Darling, Lisa, you can tell me...
You've been silent for too long."

WRITERS JAMES CAPALDI, STEVE WINWOOD

Forty thousand headmen couldn't make me change my mind

If I had to take the choice between the deafman and the blind
I know just where my feet should go and that's enough for me

I turned around and knocked them down and walked across the sea

Hadn't traveled very far when suddenly I saw

Three small ships a-sailing out towards a distant shore

(Jagger/Richards)

(As performed by BS&T)

Please allow me to introduce myself

I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long years

Stole many a man's soul and faith

And I was 'round when Jesus Christ

Had his moment of doubt and pain

Made damn sure that Pilate

Washed his hands and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you
