I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs, I've made some bad rhymes I've acted out my love on stages With 10,000 people watching But we're alone now and I'm singing this song to you I know your image of me is what I hope to be I treated you unkindly, but darling can't you see There's no one more important to me Darling can't you please see through me 'Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song to you You taught me precious secrets Of the truth, withholding nothing You came out in front and I was hiding But now, I'm so much better And if my words don't come together Listen to the melody, 'cause my love's in there hiding I love you in a place where there's no space and time I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine And when my life is over Remember when we were together We were alone and I was singing this song to you But I love you in a place where there's no space and time I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine And when my life is over Remember when we were together We were alone and I was singing this song for you We were alone and I was singing this song for you We were alone and I was singing my song Singing this song for you |

Gather round me people, got a song to sing
'Bout that sweet magnolia thyme Black-eyed Susan made some catfish stew And papa brought some homemade wine All the southern children like to rock'n roll The TV mamas tell you why They got it on the boat from Africa It's a dixie lullaby. Well, Blind Willie Time he had a dime shoe shine Stand down on Beale Street And Willie would stop and say say hello All the shoes he'd meet "Why are you so happy?" said the clean white buck "You got no reason to be happy Mr. Time" And Willie just smiled and Willie popped his rag And sang a dixie lullaby Now you heard the story of my southern home With a honeysuckle wine And any time you think that you might come yourself You ought to keep this thought in mind All you easy riders better watch your step If you're walkin' down below the line That Louisiana man is gonna get you yet With his dixie lullaby He's got a dixie lullaby Oh, it's a dixie lullaby |

Sometimes I get impatient
But she cools me without words And she comes so sweet and softly My hummingbird and have you heard That I thought my life had ended But I find that it's just begun Cause she gets me where I live I'll give all I have to give I'm talking about that hummingbird Oh she's little and she loves me Too much for words to say When I see her in the morning sleeping She's little and she loves me To my lucky day Hummingbird don't fly away (woah yeah) When I'm feeling wild and lonesome She knows the words to say And she gives me understanding In her special way And I have to say In my life I'll love no other Because she's more than I deserve And she gets me where I live I'll give her everything i have to give I'm talking about that hummingbird Oh she's little and she loves me Too much for words to say When I see her in the morning sleeping She's little and she loves me To my lucky day Hummingbird don't fly away Don't fly away don't fly away Don't fly away Don't fly away |

Try and judge me only by my time and changes
And not mistaken words, for I say many Listen only to my song and watch my eyes There's not much time to spill, there's hardly any Well, look at all the children living in the streets And they're looking, not afraid to touch each other They're not afraid to be themselves or someone else ? Never treat a brother like a passing stranger Honey, won't you always try to keep the love light burning Sing a song of love and open up your heart For you might be the prince of peace returning Yeah, you might be the prince of peace returning Oh, the love the blind and wounded as that you would yourself And the businessmen in cells collecting pennies Judge their wealth by coins that they give away And not the ones that they keep for themselves for spending Oh, never be impatient with the ones who love you It might be yourself that you're burning Sing a song of love and open up your heart For you might be the prince of peace returning Never treat a brother like a passing stranger Honey, won't you always try to keep the love light burning Sing a song of love and open up your heart For you might be the prince of peace returning For you might be the prince of peace returning Oh, if I pay me, if I pay you If I pray to your Jesus then you gonna tell us what you're about to do? What if I pay me and I might pay you Who's got the money? Who's got the money? Who's got the money for, sing the song |

Well it's such a strange world that I'm living in
She was my woman and she was my friend But I was wrong again. Such a strange changes that you put me through But like a fool I fell in love with you What can this poor boy do? Roll away the stone Don't leave me here alone Resurrect me and protect me Don't leave me laying here What will they do in two thousand years? It's such a strange time that we're passing through I thought you'd tell me when your time was due I guess you thought I knew Strange way to keep avoiding me Why did you lie how could I help but be Oh won't you help me be? |

Come, you masters of war
You that build all the guns You that build the death planes You that build all the bombs You that hide behind the walls You that hide behind your desks I just want you to know Know I can see through your masks |
