Grand Funk Railroad Grand Funk Lyrics
1.Got This Thing On The Move

Come on over to my side, it's where you wanna' be.
Come on over to joy ride, and let your morals be.
Ain't no way to deny it, if it's in your soul.
You don't know 'till you try it, baby, let the good times roll.

Let me taste your life. let me fill your stream.
Let me make you feel it right now, just lay back and dream.
Got this thing on the move, it's beginin'.
Got a strange kind of feeling, under my skin.

I hear my baby knockin', at my front door.
She knows what i got, she wants some more.
And when it's all over, i start to come down.
Think of the restin' place, i'll leave the ground


2.Please Don't Worry

If somebody tells you 'look out boy,'
'that stuff you're doin' is way too strong.'
Pay them no mind, just give 'em time,
Keep your head, you can't do no wrong.

Chorus
Please don't worry, 'bout no jury,
There's so many, of us anyway.

If somebody tries to bust you,
'cause you had their daughter late last night.
Don't get me wrong, but, you must be strong,
And, you just can't get uptight.

Chorus

If somebody says you look funny,
'cause the way you dress, to them, ain't right.
Say 'hey, can't you see, you look funny to me?'
'but, i'm just tryin' to be polite.'

Chorus

Chorus

3.High Falootin' Woman

I can see you comin' mama, yes, you're movin' on down the line.
I can see you comin' mama, yes, you're movin' on down the line.
You done have left a thousand men, and they're all back there
cryin'.

She's a high falootin' woman, and she just can't do no wrong.
She's a high falootin' woman, and she just can't do no wrong.
She's gonna' cry some day, and i know it can't be too long.

She's got hips like a honey, and, lord, she can make 'em move.
She's got hips like a honey, and, lord, she can make 'em move.
And she'll do anything, to make you get in her groove.

Lord have mercy on you woman, and your wicked soul.
Lord have mercy on you woman, and your wicked soul.
'cause that high falootin' woman, gonna' live 'till she's a
hundred years old.


4.Mr. Limousine Driver

Hey, mr. limousine driver,
Can i ask you a favor, please?
Let her in my door and don't look back here no more,
I know you can do it with ease.

Although, we're on our way from the show,
And you don't like to get off the track.
Please, mr. chauffeur, let's talk things over,
'cause she says she loves me and that's a fact.

Can you hear what i'm sayin', it's not like i'm prayin',
You know, because you've done it before.
So, why make me wait, please don't hesitate,
Just get back here, and let her in my door.

Hey, mr. limousine driver,
I know you know where it's at.
Too late will be later, you just read your evening paper,
And don't worry 'bout what's goin' on in back.

Hey, mr. limousine driver ...

Hey, mr. limousine driver ...


5.In Need

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 ...


6.Winter And My Soul

I see a pear falling down from the tree.
Winter is coming and it's plain to see.
I spend the cold nights in my lonely room.
Is it the winter to which i am doomed?

Cold is the snow that will cover the ground.
I feel the presence of tears falling down.
Is it for pity or pain that i cry?
Color is gone and the grass it must die.

Winter brings sadness that empties my soul.
Life is too short for a dog growing old.
He used to follow and play at my heels.
Love from his heart i no longer can feel.


7.Paranoid

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.

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.

Ahhhhh ...


8.Inside Looking Out

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.
