Call me the breeze  
I keep blowin’ down the road  
Well now they call me the breeze  
I keep blowin’ down the road  
I ain’t got me nobody  
I don’t carry me no load

How many roads must a man walk down  
Before you call him a man?  
How many seas must a white dove sail  
Before she sleeps in the sand?  
Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly  
Before they’re forever banned?

The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind  
The answer is blowin’ in the wind

See the world in green and blue  
See China right in front of you  
See the canyons broken by cloud  
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out  
See the Bedouin fires at night  
See the oil fields at first light  
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth  
After the flood all the colors came out

Surrounded by his friends  
He sits so silently and unaware of anything  
Playing poxy pinball, picks his nose  
And smiles and pokes his tongue at everything  
I believe in love, but how can men  
Who’ve never seen light be enlightened?  
Only if he’s cured will his spirit’s future level ever heighten

In this world I’m living in, I see the light  
Sins are gone, now I know what is wrong and right  
Morning came on slowly, pushing back the night  
It’s good times now that I can see the light

Put a candle in the window  
'Cause I feel I’ve got to move  
Though I’m going, going  
I’ll be coming home soon  
Long as I can see the light

Yonder come Miss Rosie  
How in the world did you know?  
By the way she wears her apron  
And the clothes she wore  
Umbrella on her shoulder  
Piece of paper in her hand  
She come to see the gov’nor  
She want to free her man, oh

Let the Midnight Special shine a light on me

Judy in disguise, well that’s what you are

I know there’s a place you walked  
Where love falls from the trees  
My heart is like a broken cup  
I only feel right on my knees  
I spit out like a sewer hole  
Yet still receive your kiss  
How can I measure up to anyone now  
After such a love as this?  
Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)

I know nothing stays the same  
But if you’re willing to play the game  
It’s coming around again  
So don’t mind if I fall apart  
There’s more room in a broken heart

Some of you might not agree  
'Cause you probably likes a lot of misery  
But think a while and you will see…  
Broken hearts are for assholes

You broke my heart  
'Cause I couldn’t dance  
You didn’t even want me around  
And now I’m back  
To let you know  
I can really shake 'em down

Do you love me?  
(I can really move)  
Do you love me?  
(I’m in the groove)  
Now do you love me?  
(Do you love me)  
Now that I can dance

Watch me now, hey

Put your knees together, baby  
Let your backbone slip  
I’ll tell you, though, roll it down  
Get shake 'em down like this  
Lord, I must stop

I’m so tired of hiding me, shake 'em on down

I like big butts and I cannot lie  
You other brothers can’t deny

And a round thing in your face  
You get sprung

The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin’  
That’s what I said  
The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand  
Or so I’ve read.  
My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo  
I love to sink her with my pink torpedo.
