Black Dog (Led Zeppelin)

Black Dog

Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move

Gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove.

Oh, oh, child, way you shake that thing

Gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting.

Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way

Watch your honey drip, can’t keep away.

*Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.

 Ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.

I gotta roll, can’t stand still,

Got a flame in my heart, can’t get my fill,

Eyes that shine burning red,

Dreams of you all thru my head.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.

Hey, baby, oh, baby, pretty baby,

Tell me what you do me now.

(Repeat)

Didn’t take too long ‘fore I found out

What people mean my down and out.

Spent my money, took my car,

Started tellin’ her friends she wants to be a star.

I don’t know but I been told

A big legged woman ain’t got no soul.

* Chorus

All I ask for when I pray,

Steady rollin’ woman gonna come my way.

Need a woman gonna hold my hand

And tell me no lies, make me a happy man.

Rock And Roll (Led Zeppelin)

Rock And Roll

It’s been a long time since I Rock and Rolled,

It’s been a long time since I did the Stroll.

Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back,

Let me get it back, baby, where I come from.

It’s been a long time, been a long time,

Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

Yes it has.

It’s been a long time since the book of love,

I can’t count the tears of a life with no love.

Carry me back, carry me back,

Carry me back, baby, where I come from.

It’s been a long time, been a long time,

Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,

Making vows that just can’t work right.

Open your arms, opens your arms,

Open your arms, baby, let my love come running in.

It’s been a long time, been a long time,

Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

Stairway To Heaven (Led Zeppelin)

Stairway To Heaven

There’s a lady who’s sure

All that glitters is gold

And she’s buying a stairway to heaven.

When she gets there she knows

If the stores are all closed

With a word she can get what she came for.

Ooh, ooh, and she’s buying a stairway to heaven.

There’s a sign on the wall

But she wants to be sure

‘Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.

In a tree by the brook

There’s a songbird who sings,

Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,

Ooh, it makes me wonder.

There’s a feeling I get

When I look to the west,

And my spirit is crying for leaving.

In my thoughts I have seen

Rings of smoke through the trees,

And the voices of those who standing looking.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,

Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And it’s whispered that soon

If we all call the tune

Then the piper will lead us to reason.

And a new day will dawn

For those who stand long

And the forests will echo with laughter.

If there’s a bustle in your hedgerow

Don’t be alarmed now,

It’s just a spring clean for the May queen.

Yes, there are two paths you can go by

But in the long run

There’s still time to change the road you’re on.

And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won’t go

In case you don’t know,

The piper’s calling you to join him,

Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,

And did you know

Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road

Our shadows taller than our soul.

There walks a lady we all know

Who shines white light and wants to show

How ev’rything still turns to gold.

And if you listen very hard

The tune will come to you at last.

When all are one and one is all

To be a rock and not to roll.

And she’s buying a stairway to heaven.

Tangerine (Led Zeppelin)

Tangerine

Measuring a summer’s day,

I only finds it slips away to grey,

The hours, they bring me pain.

*Tangerine, Tangerine,

 Living reflection from a dream;

 I was her love, she was my queen,

 And now a thousand years between.

Thinking how it used to be,

Does she still remember times like these?

To think of us again?

And I do.

* Chorus

Gallows Pole (Led Zeppelin)

Gallows Pole

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,

Think I see my friends coming,

Riding a many mile.

Friends, did you get some silver?

Did you get a little gold?

What did you bring me, my dear friends,

To keep me from the Gallows Pole?

What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?

I couldn’t get no silver, I couldn’t get no gold,

You know that we’re too damn poor

To keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,

I think I see my brother coming,

Riding a many mile.

Brother, did you get me some silver?

Did you get a little gold?

What did you bring me, my brother,

To keep me from the Gallows Pole?

Brother, I brought you some silver,

I brought a little gold,

I brought a little of ev’ry thing

To keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Yes, I brought you to keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Hangman, hangman, turn your head awhile,

I think I see my sister coming,

Riding a many mile, mile, mile.

Sister, I implore you, take him by the hand,

Take him to some shady bower,

Save me from the wrath of this man,

Please take him,

Save me from the wrath of this man, man.

Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile,

Pray tell me that I’m free to ride,

Ride for many mile, mile, mile.

Oh, yes, you got a fine sister,

She warmed my blood from cold,

Brought my blood to boiling hot

To keep you from the Gallows Pole,

Your brother brought me silver,

Your sister warmed my soul,

But now I laugh and pull so hard

And see you swinging on the Gallows Pole

Keep-a-swingin’!

Swingin’ on the gallows pole! Gallows Pole

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,

Think I see my friends coming,

Riding a many mile.

Friends, did you get some silver?

Did you get a little gold?

What did you bring me, my dear friends,

To keep me from the Gallows Pole?

What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?

I couldn’t get no silver, I couldn’t get no gold,

You know that we’re too damn poor

To keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,

I think I see my brother coming,

Riding a many mile.

Brother, did you get me some silver?

Did you get a little gold?

What did you bring me, my brother,

To keep me from the Gallows Pole?

Brother, I brought you some silver,

I brought a little gold,

I brought a little of ev’ry thing

To keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Yes, I brought you to keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Pray tell me that I’m free to ride,

Ride for many mile, mile, mile.

To keep you from the Gallows Pole,

Your sister warmed my soul,

But now I laugh and pull so hard

And see you swinging on the Gallows Pole

Keep-a-swingin’!

Swingin’ on the gallows pole!
