3.The Wall

Well thunder, lightning, strike me down, i do believe i see,
A ghostly figure on the ground, fallen to his knees.

Chorus:
And the wall gets higher, so you could not see,
I said the wall gets higher, so you could not see.

Well the lightning flash, the cannon roar, the ground begin to
shake,
The people wondered but they heard no more, but the big chief
will not wait.

Chorus
Well!

Well a beast so bad it put me to bed, but the air was thick and
deep,
The people wonder but they heard no more, the mountain would not
speak.

Chorus

Run tonight, run tonight oh,
Risin' right now, risin' right now.


4.Travelin' High

Here come that good ol' travelin' band once again mmm-hmmm
Back in the alley, lookin' like a long-lost friend, oh yeah.
I know for certain there won't be no jive,
We're back in business, and you know i can fly, fly, fly.
Oh my my, travelin' high! yeah.

Hey, hey, it's been a long long time, yeah,
But if it's all right, you know you're gonna blow my mind, oh

'cause i'm a natural boogie-woogie fool,
Ain't good for nothin' but chasin' down the hoochie-coo.
Oh my my, travelin' high! yeah.

Now whatcha gonna do with the old rockin' chair, mmm-hmm,
Just sit you right down, start to rock, start to rock,
Start to rockin' away from here,

Back in the alley with the hoochie-coochie-coo.
Oh my my, travelin' high, high, high! yeah.

6.Almost Saturday Night

Outside my window, i can hear the radio,
And i know that motor wagon is ready to fly,
'cause it's almost saturday night.

Bye bye, tomorrow, jody's gone to the rodeo,
And you know some good old boys are ready to ride,
'cause it's almost saturday night.

Chorus:
Gonna push the clouds away, let the music have it's way,
Let it steal my heart away, and you know i'm-a-goin'!

Outside the ringing, the night train is bringin' me home,
When you hear that locomotion get ready to ride,
'cause it's almost saturday night.

Chorus

Outside the ringing, the night train is bringin' me home,
When you hear that locomotion get ready to ride,
'cause it's almost saturday night.
Oh yeah!


7.Where The River Flows

Where the river flows, where the river flows.

I was walkin' the main road, comin' into town,
I came upon a stranger, lying on the ground.
He said 'i been in prison, and now i'm on the run,
I'm feelin' kinda weary, gotta make it home.'

Chorus:
Where the river flows, where the water goes,
I'll be over there, waitin' over there, where the river flows.

Well i didn't have a lot to give, but i gave him what i could,
Listened while he talked about the bad times and the good.
And early in the mornin', i took an old man home,
Left him by the river, left him all alone.

Chorus

9.Dream-song

Would you like to sail the sea, like a pirate, wild and free?
Cast your whole life upon the wind, well it's your song, and
it's your dream.

Would you like, to turn the page; fight the dragon, or find your
maid,
Makin' merry at the village green, well it's your song, and it's
your dream.

Would you like to lead the band, hittin' that old time sweet
dixieland,
And that side show go marchin' on, well it's your song, and it's
your dream.

Would you like to be a song, like a river just rolls along,
Teach the whole world how to sing, well it's your song, and it's
your dream.
It's your song, and it's your dream.


10.Flyin' Away

Well i feel like flyin' away, 'cause more and more i'm just in
the way, yeah.
Through the night, and far across the sky,
There's another light, you know i must fly.
Far, far away.

Well i feel it now, somehow in me, the power of flight should
appear,
I hear a song callin' my name, and i might be wrong, but i'm
goin' just the same.
Far, far away.

Well i feel like flyin' away, and walk on the clouds along the
way.
Well don't be sad, it's gonna be alright, yeah.
And if you're strong, just come along tonight.
Far, far away; far, far away.
