Iron Butterfly

Pegs of people line the street
A ball and chain around their feet
Waitin' for a weekend treat
But Easy Rider's got 'em all beat 'cause

[Chorus]
Easy rider, he's a glider
(Easy) Freedom, every day
(Rider) Easy rider, easy glider
Lettin' the wind pay the way
(that's all he ever does)

Freedom!
Freedom!

Puts a rocket in his pocket
At the dawn of day
Needs a goodbye kiss in the mornin', mist
You know the man can't stay.

[Chorus]

solo

(Who'm I talkin' 'bout)
Easy, easy, easy rider
Easy, easy, easy rider

Goin' easy, where you goin'
Gettin' tired of being all alone
Oh, the roads are calling you
Back to where you belong
Oh, ride on!

Talkin' bout easy

Listen to the clock beat as it ticks out time away,
And listen to the birds' laughter as they live for today,
And listen to the heart beat as it beats our lives away.

These are the things that we hear in our world,
and these are the things that we hear in the time of our lives,
in the time of our lives.

And to us they are real,
And for us they're ideal.

How you doing people that passed on yesterday?
Did you meet with justice on your judgement day?

These are the things that we hear in our world,
and these are the things that we hear in the time of our lives,
in the time of our lives.

And to us they are real,
And for us they're ideal.

Yes, to us,
without a doubt they're real.

without a doubt they're real.

without a doubt they're real!

Listen to the clock beat as it ticks out time away,
And listen to the birds' laughter as they live for today,
And listen to the heart beat as it beats our lives away.

These are the things that we hear in our world,
And these are the things that we hear in the time of our lives,
In the time of our lives.

And to us they are real,
And for us they're ideal.

How you doing people that passed on yesterday?
Did you meet with justice on your judgement day?

These are the things that we hear in our world,
And these are the things that we hear in the time of our lives,
In the time of our lives.

And to us they are real,
And for us they're ideal.

Yes, to us,
Without a doubt they're real.

Without a doubt they're real.
Without a doubt they're real!

When a man has a woman
And he doesn't really love her
Why does he burn inside
When she starts to love another

It's possession,
It's possession.

It's possession,
It's possession.

When a man has a woman
and he doesn't really love her
why does he burn inside
when she starts to love another

It's possession,
It's possession.

It's possession,
It's possession.

It's possession,
It's possession.

Never knowing the world without you
Never knowing though ill never doubt you
Never knowing just where you come from
Never knowing youll be someone with you

(chorus)
High on a mountain top
Where only I could see
I hold a love for you
And you would come to find
Once upon my mind
Just a little
The hole in my life

Never knowing how hard I love you
Never knowing if my hearts above you
Never knowing how hard we tried
Never knowing if ill live or die with you

(repeat chorus)

High on a mountain top
The hole in my life
High on a mountain top

I found me a little butterfly
As blue as the sky
With just a touch of gold
I knew I had to hold
My butterfly fly away with me

Every time I reached for her
She managed to slip away
Takin' my breath away from me
How can I make her stay?
My butterfly, fly away with me, yeah

My heart was beatin' faster
She started to come near
Spread her wings around me
And cast out all my fears
My butterfly, fly away with me, yeah

Now the bright light of her eyes show
She never was leavin' me
Got in me by my efforts to reach her
Leadin' me to be free
My butterfly, fly away with me
(Yeah, yeah, oow)

Butterfly, fly away

Come and have a new day-yeah

Hey, we all know
That the town is around us today

Talking bout the pain that comes after
And what a high price it seems we got to pay for live

Time to share a little love
Come and have a new day yeah

Hey, its time that we're feeling
What has got both talking bout today
Take a look at the part that we're playing
In a hard special way

Time to share all our love
Come and have a new day

Make it a new day-new day
Made in a new way
Make it a new day-new day
Made in a new way

Got to have Time to think it over
Need some more time to think it over
Over and over and over and over and over and over and over

Time to share all our love

Come and have a new day

Aint no room for non-believers
You can leave us, if you like

We'll let you in

Can you feel the manmade mist
As it starts to twist your lungs?
Slower than guns

Breathe deep
As you enter sleep
Fell secure it's all around you

Can you see the golden brown
As it circles round your town
Town coming down

Smokin' stacks on industry's backs
In this land of a cigarette pack
Feel secure there all around you

Miles and miles of gasoline fumes
In the air like transparent tombs
Feel secure there all around you

DDT making bugs relax
There in your food like poison tacks
How about that

Eat well there all within you
Town coming down
