Emcee: Okay, it's all going to happen here in just a few minutes. Let's try to make a lot of room by ... everybody clearing the aisles as much as possible ... trying to make a ... a situation here where we can run this Grand Funk set without having to stop.
Emcee: Clear the aisles as much as possible; we'll have those lights out this time. Emcee: We'll be ready to go in just a couple of minutes. Would you clear those aisles a little bit? We sure would appreciate it. Mark: Hey! I'm getting a shock off this mike. Mark: Hey, I keep getting a shock off this mike. Can you switch the ground, Don? I know it's a hell of a rush, but I can't take too many. Emcee: Here's the group you've been waiting to see: Grand Funk Railroad! |

Did you ever have that feeling in your life, that someone was watching you?
He don't have no reason, that's right. but, still he's there watching you. Someone is waiting just outside the door, to take you away. Everybody knows just what he's there for, to take you away. But, you don't know why he's been waiting. But, you don't know why he's been waiting. Spent too much time anticipating. Spent too much time anticipating. Did you ever think it could be you, that's just outside the door? There's just one way to find out if it's true. so, what you waiting for? Oh, get yourself together now, my friend, and step outside the pad. If there's no one waiting for you there, my friend, i think you should be glad. But, who wasn't there that you should look out for? But, who wasn't there that you should look out for? Get back inside your wall, and shut the door. Get back inside your wall, and shut the door. You don't have nobody, don't need nobody, can't love nobody, You're better off by yourself. You ain't feelin' too bad, you're driving me mad, and say you're bad, You're better off by yourself.

Hey, hey, mama; mama, what you tryin' to do?
You keep on talkin' to me, 'till your face turns blue. Well, do you think I'm a young boy, yet to make up my mind? Well, I'm just castin' all my toys, I'm gonna' leave what's behind me, behind. I'm gonna' leave what's behind me, behind. I saw an old high school friend, just the other day, He didn't ask me how I'd been, he asked me "how was my pay?" Now, do you call this a friendship, judging from what he said? If you do, I've a real tip: ain't nobody gonna' know about my bread. Ain't nobody gonna' know about my bread. If you got somebody, that you can trust to the very end, I said if you do, I want to be like you, 'cause you sure got a real good friend. You sure got a real good friend. Friend ... Friend ... |

Once I had a little girl
Sometimes I think about her But buddy, you know She's not really there When memories do call I just, I just can't live without her But trying all the time is so hard to bear Heartbreaker, can't take her Heartbreaker, bringing me down Heartbreaker, can't take her Heartbreaker, bringing me down I don't cry no more I live while I'm flying But I'll think back And you can hear me say Heartbreaker, can't take her Heartbreaker, bringing me down Heartbreaker, can't take her Heartbreaker, bringing me down 내게도 어여쁜 여인이 있었지 때로는 그녀 생각을 해 하지만 친구, 자네도 알잖아 그녀는 떠나고 없어 그 추억이 밀려 오면 난 그녀 없이 살 수 없어 항상 이런 식으로는 견딜 수 없어 가질 수 없는 매정한 사람 나를 절망에 빠뜨린 무정한 사람 가질 수 없는 매정한 사람 나를 절망에 빠뜨린 무정한 사람 더 이상 울지 않아 취한 채 살아 가겠지만 내가 추억을 떠올리면 당신도 내 말을 들을 수 있을거야 가질 수 없는 매정한 사람 나를 절망에 빠뜨린 무정한 사람 가질 수 없는 매정한 사람 나를 절망에 빠뜨린 무정한 사람 오래 전 이 밴드를 처음 접했을 땐 이름에 포함된 funk란 단어 때문에 funk 밴드로 오인할 뻔도 했지만 그와는 별 상관 없는 하드락 밴드죠. 이들이 이런 밴드 이름을 갖게 된 건 별다른 이유에서가 아니라, 출신 지역인 미시간에 위치한 유명한 'Grand Trunk Railroad'를 패러디해서 이름을 지었기 때문이라는군요. 핵심 멤버는 기타리스트와 송라이터를 겸하는 Mark Farner와 드러머 Don Brewer입니다. 이전에 지방 밴드에서 함께 호흡을 맞춘 사이라고 합니다. 무명이던 이들은 1969년 아틀란타 팝페스티발에서 무료로 공연을 하고 있었는데 레코드 관계자 눈에 띄여 곧바로 계약을 하고 데뷔작을 발표합니다. 그 데뷔작에서 수록된 이들의 대표곡 중 하나입니다. 후반부 연주에서 거슬리는 하울링이 몇 번 들리는데 라이브라서 그런게 아니라 원래 그렇게 녹음이 된 것 같네요.

Mark: We ... we have a new album out, it was released the fifteenth. It's called Closer To Home. We'd like to do one ... we'd like to do one from the album. Ah ..., but before we do, I feel that ah ..., I have to tell you something because I know that if you were in my place that you would do it for me.
Mark: Ah ... brothers and sisters, there are people out there that look just like you or maybe ah ..., your brother ah ..., but they're not. And, when they hand you something, don't take it -- don't take it, okay? Mark: This is Mean Mistreater ... |

Mean mistreater, you make me cry,
You lay around, and watch me die. Mean mistreater, can't you see I'm real? Are you satisfied, with the way you feel? I've tried hard to live without you, in so many ways. I just can't help myself from thinking of you, for the rest of my days. Heartache is at my door step, won't leave me alone. I just can't get used to it, now that I'm on my own. I know all about you, your childhood days, Your mom and dad, your pretty face. Mean mistreater, if you need me, I'm needin' you to set me free. Mmmm ... |

I'm sitting here lonely like a broken man.
I serve my time doin' the best I can. Walls and bars they surround me. But, I don't want no sympathy. No baby, no baby, All I need is some tender lovin'. To keep me sane in this burning oven. And, when my time is up, you'll be my reefer. Life gets worse on God's green earth. Be my reefer, got to keep smokin' that thing. No, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I said now baby ... baby ..., let me smoke it ... smoke it ... Makes me feel good ... feel good, yes, I feel good ... ahhhhh ... Yes, I feel alright ... feel alright ..., yes, I feel alright ... feel alright ... Yes, I feel alright ... Ahhhhh ... Ohhhhh ... Ice cold water is runnin' through my veins. They try and drag me back to work again. Pain and blisters on my mind and hands. I work all day making up burlap bags. The oats they're feeding me are driving me wild. I feel unhappy like a new born child. Now, when my time is up, you wait and see. These walls and bars won't keep that stuff from me. No, no, baby, Won't keep that stuff from me. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I need you right now mama. I need you right now baby. Right by my side, honey. All night long. Make me feel alright ... Yes, all ..., yes, all ..., yes, all ... alright. You better come on up and get down with me. I'll make you feel real good, just you wait and see. Make me feel alright ..., yes, I feel alright ... Yes, all ..., yes, all ..., yes, alright. |
