Masters Apprentices Lyrics



Masters Apprentices
1967
But One Day
Ah..........
Ah..........
He isn't shaken by his ways
He has 40 new girls every day
Love comes, love goes, what the difference anyway?
Today's girl loves him, yesterdays will cry
Ah..........
Ah..........
Daddy's car is always at his hand
A car that runs on tears and treat you like a man
Aftershave and suede shoes, might not have the blues
With cigarettes and car seats, what else would he choose?
Ah..........
Ah..........
Chorus
He knows the score
I don't know anything
But One Day he'll see.....that he's wrong

Wars Or Hands Of Time
When I turn cold, I will be thinking of you
When I'm far away, try to remember what I said
The day I live, I'll still be dreaming of your love
Wait for the clouds to pass your way
Wait for me I'll be back some day
At dusk we said goodbye. You said you'd try hard not to cry
But I could feel a chill fall lonely on my shoulder
In the wind on a beach where someday I'll return
Wait for the clouds to pass your way
Wait for me I'll be back some day
Wars or hands of time will not destroy our dreams of days
That are to come. Our tears were shed with understanding
Don't be sad, I'll catch the wind on home to you
Wait for the clouds to pass your way
Wait for me I'll be back some day

Dancing Girl (Bo Diddley)
Running to the dance hall, lightning speed
Look out for my baby, wonder what she needs
Jump on the stage, start jumping around
????? will have you all down
Oh....
Come on the stage now doing my dance
Wait a minute baby won't you give me a chance
Dance all night and dance all day
This little girl wont let me get away
Oh.. Go my rockin' man, ha, ha
Running out the dance hall, going round the world
Try to get away from that dancing girl
She said 'Hey Bo Diddley you wait for me'
I was so tired that I couldn't see, Ahh... Yeah

Undecided
You've gotta give me little lovin' honey
If you wanna lot of love in return

I wanna be your true lovin' man baby
I wanna' do the best I can
Believe in me this very day
Every word I got say

Get that grin right off your face
Accelerate at crawling pace
Your love is moving much too slow
You'll find that soon I'll have to go

Hot Gully Wind
My baby's been and gone like a hot gully wind
Leavin' on a new train with her brother Jim
Here I stand alone like a backwash young tree
Hangin' out my branches trying to dry my brown leaves

Oh couldn't you see that it would mean
Oh couldn't you hear that I should leave.
Hey, shame me and my love's gone, I'm forlorn, that's me

She made me feel like crying on a dusty summer night
Made me feel like laughing when there's only rain in sight
Time will tell on her my friend it's only right to say
I'm leavin' on that new train, I'm headin' the other way

Theme For A Social Climber
Every day the work gets harder
Every day my eyes see farther into what appears to be my life
Yesterday the sun was shining
Now today my eyes are crying, tell me what tomorrow's eyes will bring
Yesterday this girl was here with me
Now she thinks she ought to change her theme
To someone who can give her all the stars she wants to shine
A love to play with 'til she thinks it's time to change her mind
What am I to do without her? Where am I to go without her?
Though I try my eyes can't see that far

She's My Girl
My little woman makes me pleased with a what she's got, that's alright
My little woman makes me pleased with a what she's got
She gives me all her love, she gives more than enough,
She's my girl, that's alright
My little woman too good for the likes of me yeah
My little woman too good for the likes of me
She darns my socks and irons my shirts, soothes my worries
She's my girl, that's alright
My little woman too good for the likes of me yeah she's too good
My little woman too good for the likes of me
She so understanding with me, that's what I always owe her
She's my girl, babe, that's right, hey hey

Buried And Dead
I know you said, our love's buried and dead
Lies, just all lies, now can't you see that I tried to love you
Oh baby to love you, I tried so hard

But you said that we're through
Now I'll get rid of you
So you get out of my way and I'll live to fight another day
Go away girl, please go away girl away from me
Our loves buried, buried and dead
It won't be the first time that I've been left
Go on and leave, you'll see I wont mind
True love to find takes a bit more time

Who Do You Think You Are
Chorus : Ooh la la ooh la la la la
Mmm, you think you're a star, you'll go far
Mmm, you think you're a star, yes you are
Tell me just who do you think you are....

You're so good and you want everybody to know
You hold all the parties, you want everybody to go
It means so much to you to be a socialite queen, your dream

Chorus
The guests were all there when I drove up to your front gate
I want to see you but I guess I'll just have to wait
Your wealthy admirers, your mansion you wanted to show, so I'll go

Barefoot When I Saw Her
Hit it
I see barefoot girl sitting at coconut tree
I see barefoot girl wish she would come up to me
It's such a beautiful day, we could make love in the sand
It's such a wonderful day, run up to me take my hand
Wander through jungle, wander through village
Wandering down by the sea

St. John's Wood
Driving my car, the wind blows my hair and I'm thinking of you
To where we once walked, when we were together so happy and free
At St John's Wood, where we once stood
I stopped my car, looked across the street where we used to play
To dream to me now, walks in the wood together in May
In St John's Wood, where we once stood
Remember the heart that we carved in the tree, how it all comes back to me

5:10 Man
Oh Oh yeah
Who's that coming round the corner
Tell me Who's that coming round the bend
He doesn't look like me
But the mum and the dads think he's gas

Who's that coming round the corner
Ha, He's so square and laughs at me
He's a 5:10 man
It's kids like us that he cans
He can see that we're free and
We know that it's just jealousy

Who's that coming round the corner
Who's that coming round the bend
You can see him catch the 5:10 train
You can see him with his hat and cane

A Dog, A Siren And Memories
Every night he waits for his master to come home
By himself he lays on the road all alone, he doesn't moan
Eight o'clock, soon his only master will appear
He'll wag his tail, though it seems so long since he was here, it's been a year
He used to come home with a bone and he thought he'd never be alone
He would curl up with him there by the fire on cold winter's nights so long ago
Poor dog can hear a siren that echoes in the night
A cringe of fear he recalls a year ago tonight, that flashing light, he died that night

Linda Linda
Linda, Linda watching at the window, all the pretty cars go by
It's a clear blue sky and I, wishing you were here
Linda, Linda wave your little finger, if you whistle I'd be there
See your golden hair. I dare not come if your mums in
Sweet thing, you sing a sweet song of love. I can't resist
Give me a sign, make up your mind, your sister said that I could come maybe
Linda, Linda watching at the window, all the pretty cars go by
It's a clear blue sky and I, wishing you were here
I do love you and hope that you love me too

Isabella
Pride of all the matadors and toreadors they all bowed to him
Into the arena he would walk and surely he would win
The bull he was to fight today was chosen from all the best in Spain
When Isabellas rose the master he new he would remain
Isabella, Isabella...
The fight had only just begun the crowd was screaming out for more
The bull began to kick and buck with a fury he'd never known before
Then suddenly the crowd rose to it's feet and Isabella cried
The hero of a thousand fights and there on the ground he died
Isabella, Isabella...

Captivating Voice
I dig the way you talk, you really turn me on
Your words ramble in my brain 'til the day is gone
I try to occupy my mind with idle wishin'
Still it spins, it's got me in a terrible condition
Your voice, you caught me with your voice
Your voice, your captivating voice

Piece Of Me
If you like you can have a piece of me, piece of me(x2)
You may like a peach, a plum or a pear
You may like toffee apples from a fair
But only when I'm not there
If you like you can have a piece of me, piece of me(x2)
You may like to fly above the sky
You may like to feel a little high
But only when I come by
If you like you can have a piece of me, piece of me(fade)

Titanic
With myself, a thousand more, we set out friends at dawn
The captain said "excuse me please" a priest began to yawn
The sea called out a thousand names and we all answered "yes"
But I was none the wiser now, the rest could all have guessed
La la la ...Titanic, Titanic, Titanic, Titanic, the unsinkable sank
All the children lost at sea, hopeless in the fog
His face was white as he did write last entries in the log
La la la ...Titanic, Titanic, Titanic, Titanic, the unsinkable sank

How I Love You
There's a loneliness inside me
Since you've gone, I can't go on
Emptiness is all around me
In my eyes, I can't disguise
I can't believe you've really left me
Gone away, you've gone to stay
Girl, oh girl, girl, oh girl
Please remember what I told you
I need you so, I cant let go

Reo De Camero
Reo De Camero
Don't you know that's where they go
In majestic splendour
In their heads where evil goes

With a silver dagger
Carve a cross upon their heads
Moonshine on the tombstone
By the light they raise the dead

Don't you know they go there
Where the moon is on the rise
See the talon lady
Tear their flesh before your eyes

Fear I may be chosen
Had a choice I'd suicide
Better than be bitten
By the snake that's in her eyes

Easy To Lie
Wake up to yourself before you die
The truth is hard but it's easy to lie
I can't tell ya how to get it on
It's in your head long before your born

I guess it's all a matter of time
To find the answer's in your mind
One day you'll quickly realise
That the future's right before your eyes

We could be so much closer today
It's not our fault things have happened that way
We live in a world of darkness and sorrow
Now we'll find a new life starting tomorrow

Because I Love You
It's because I love you
Not because were far apart
It's because I love you
And because your near my heart

It's because I miss you
Oh how long it seems to be
It's because I miss you
Thoughts of you come back to me

Once we walked together
From the fields up to the door
Promised love forever
I remember that day still
It's because I love you
I'll come home to you one day
It's because I love you
In my thoughts you'll always stay

Ooh, Do what you wanna do, be what you wanna be yeah

Catty
Mother and father gone away for weekend.
Cats are going to play
Get on the telephone, tell him that you're all alone

can you come over to stay?
Waiting for a chance for a long, long time.
We can ??????(-lost lyric any guesses)
Bring out the records
bring out the music and all the rest of the dope
Yeah, right now

Get yourself fixed up, beauty from a blue cup
just about the time he arrives
Sound of the door bell
you go and he can tell that it's going to be fine
Right now
Walk in the living room, hope to be bed soon
maybe a joint and we'll see
Place is in an awful mess, his hand is halfway up her dress
come here and sit on my knee

Wicked woman - all you need is love

Our Friend Stanly Owsley III
Friend of mine he introduced me to a man inside my mind
Thought I'd never know the answer, truth of life I'd never find

At first it seemed so strange I could see inside my head
Found it hard to rearrange, through the stratosphere I sped

If you want to know some answers to life's questions come with me
I'm sure my friend of mine can help you, like I know he did with me

Death of a King
Don't go walking in the streets today
Negro was killed and the whites must pay
Panthers on the loose, Panthers on the loose and they'll cut him down
Revenge is the song that they all sing
Get the man who killed Martin Luther King

Oh I've gotta say, Oh what a bloody day
Make your own laws, take a life and he'll take yours

State militia to the bronx they go
With batons and guns they'll meet their foe
Panthers etc.

Song for a Lost Gypsy
Heard on the BBC
Eating our Friday night tea
Heard there was going to be
A slump in the industry

Say goodbye to a man and a friend
Played the blues from his soul 'till end
Sing a song of what is going to be
Sing a song for a lost gypsy

Read in the Sunday Times
Replacements are hard to find
Read that he's left us behind
There'll never be two of a kind

Chorus

I'm your Satisfier
Who am I? - I'm your one desire
Who am I? - I set your soul on fire
Who am I? - I'm your satisfier
I've come to get you and you want me so bad, drive you mad
Who am I? - I'm your satisfier

Here I come, women better watch out
Here I come, can't you see me walking about
Don't look so brave, when I knock on your door you want more
Who am I? I'm your satisfier

Here I am, don't it make you feel good?
Here I am, said I'd come if I could
Women in St. Louis, are waiting my call, have a ball
Who am I....

Future of Our Nation
Every where, see despair
People what's the future of our nation
Look around we're going down
What happened to our jubilation
If we're strong we won't fall
See the light one and all
There is no time for hesitation
What is the future of our nation

Every day, in every way
Politicians give solutions
But in my mind, I know in time
We'll be the future institutions
Just wait for the hour
There'll be a new power
There is no time for hesitation
What is the future of our nation

All the while, try to smile
We pretend it can't affect us
Hope today, you better pray today
Someone will come to protect us
Just wait for the hour
There'll be a new power
There is no time for hesitation
What is the future of our nation

A Toast To Panama Red
1971
Answer lies Beyond
We are here, we are where, we are together & live as one
Doing right, doing wrong, who knows who's right
The Answer Lies Beyond... You and I you know

Look at me, look and see
You're a leaf in a forest praying autumn doesn't come
Look at me, look and see, I see the world's spins round, don't let it go

Beneath the Sun
I was born beneath the sun
I was hard a working one
Plough the earth with arms and blade
Shift the earth and rest in shade

Join me now I'm almost done
Baked my hands until they're numb
Seen it all take shape day by day
Build for us a place to stay

Fires at night burn yesterday
How the grass has turned to hay
Watch for you along the dusty road
Remember you dressed in blue

Games We Play I
Arguments are games we play
In between the fun
Like a dirty driving rain
In between the sun

Love did not pass us by
In it's strange disguise
Like a blind man in the night
Searching for his sign

You may be lost and pray
You must see the end
The soul that Jesus saves today
Is not to late to mend

We have to lose our way
To know where we've been
Don't do all they told you to
Love was never seen

Games We Play II
And he raised his head
Looked down upon the people
His great voice said
When love beckons, follow
Though the path sometimes seems steep and hard
Be old and let the soft wings enfold you
Though the sword hidden among the pinion may cut deep
When the voice speaks to you believe
For the voice may shatter your dreams
As the north wind lays waste to the garden
For as love is your growth, so it is your pruning
As it ascends to your height and
caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun
So it shall descend to your roots and
shake them in their clinging to the earth
All these things shall love do unto you
As you may know your secrets of the heart
And in that knowledge become a fragment of life's heart
Go into the seasonless world
Where you laugh not all you laughter
and weep not all your tears
For love gives naught but itself
and takes naught but from itself
Think not you can direct the course of love
For if it finds you worthy will direct your course
Love has no desire but to fulfil itself
To melt and be like a running brook

The Lesson, So Listen
Am I right, am I wrong
Been this way for too long
Way I seem to do it takes too long
Love is gonna come I can wait
We have seen too much hate
Lesson is easy, learning is it to late

Love Is
Oh Lord it seems you've been betrayed
A voice inside me cries
The Judas who stepped out on you
Is right before you're eyes
Hiding there behind his lies

Crucify me if you will
but may I prophisize
There is a way to live on earth
But only for the wise
For they will see there's no disguise

Love........ Is
The way for you and me, can't you see the way it's going to be

Melodies of St Kilda
You know love as willingly
Leave at your ease your trains impatient
Go to your home where love is waiting
Doing your things unconsciously... Ahhhhh
Come back again when days are warmer
I'll look for your smile and conversation
We all know what makes you need to
Yes the spell of the melody than hypnotises

Southern Cross
One man carried water to the masses, yes he did
Meanwhile his music carried magic to the ear
A virgin carried by the north wind in the spring
Hope of the words he wrote that summer couldn't bring a tear

In the first month came the third one from the sun
To lend a guiding hand so all could be as one
The scorpion wished only to be heard at his best
The world is waiting for us to create and face the test

The southern cross was kind and one morning sent us off
Sailing to the future have we learned or have we lost
Is it our direction is it written in the sky
People gathered round us as you listen we will try

Thyme To Rhyme
Feeling sorry for this song, now that it's over
Hummed the line forgot the time, the message grew colder
It was so hard to find, now there's no Thyme to Rhyme

Brown and long you let it flow, over your shoulder
Blue ribbons, the blues I sing, it's getting closer
Wasn't so hard to find, we found the Thyme to Rhyme

Living in a Childs Dream
See the windows in the greenhouse
They're painted yellow like the doors
See the child who sits in wonder
At this brightly coloured scene

See the clown who makes the children laugh
As he spins the m round and shows them all his tricks
Oh how I wish I was a little boy again
Living in a Childs Dream

See the mountains made of ice cream
With cherries dotted on their slopes
And over there's a chocolate tree trunk
Mint leaves are hanging from hte boughs

A land of fairy tales and good things
Is all a child will dream all day
And while he's young he'll have no reason
To cry for someone gone away

Elevator Driver
Silver people, lost in silver light
Silver people, won't see you tonight
Colours change but gold prevails
Coloured ships with silver sails
Floating in my mind
And silver shackles bind
With phosphorescent twine

Elevator Driver carry me please
Elevator Driver move....
Elevator Driver carry me please
Elevator Driver move....
Past the stories of confusion
To my penthouse of illusion, Elevator Driver

Ancient steeples chafed in a maze of clouds
Ancient steeples watching down on crowds
Rosellas sail the amber skies
Polka dotted butterflies
Spiders weave a web
In a coat around my head, colours rise and ebb

Tired of Just Wandering
When a man he reaches the crossroads of his life
Then he looks around for shelter and a place where he may land
For he's tired of just wandering, tired of just wandering around
He has worked with his hands in cities and towns without a name
He has loved a rich man's daughter and fought beside a fallen son
But he's tired of just wandering, tired of just wandering around
When he's tired he will lie beneath an old gum tree on grass
And he'll dream about the girl he left so far behind
While he dreams about someone far away the night gives way to day
And he looks down on the road ahead and turns the other way
For he's tired of just wandering, tired of just wandering around

4 Years Of 5
A sunny afternoon, the laughing of a child
Is what I'll want to see when I'm free
Two days of the year I'm giving with a friend
Her dream will be to stay with me, but I'll be back again
4 years of 5 I've taken with a smile
My cell mate is in for life, poor man he has a wife
He jumped into a fight which ended by his knife
The days they pass so slow, the nights are filed with fear
What will life be like, five wasted years, yeah

Brigette
Brigette lay asleep on her purple velvet blanket on her polished cedar bed
When she awoke venetian blinds let strips of light upon the eiderdown

Trees looked extra green that morning, sky looked extra blue somehow
Oh I wonder why a tear comes to her eye. She's so happy that she has to cry

Brigette's biggest day. All that childhood dreams of love are now reality
Is it really true that the girl who played on swings will wear a ring today
A cottage in the countryside, Knitting socks by the fireside
forever satisfied, forever satisfied

Merry Go Round
Soaking up the sunshine on a lazy afternoon
Ferris Wheel is spinning as it plays a happy tune
As the merry go round and the merry go round as the merry goes round my head
Roller coasting roaring, people laughing in my ears
Takes me back when I was young and joined in all their cheers
As the merry go round and the merry go round as the merry goes round my head
But I remember the merry go round...

Burke And Wills And Me
In 1859 three men left Melbourne town, tramping down a dusty road
Headed northward bound, the ground was dry, but hopes were high
Could Burke and Will be the men
To cross Australia north to south and make it back again

Where are all the seagulls, will we reach the sea?
We will find those seagulls, Burke and wills and me

Two thousand miles of desert sand and later on that day
June the 3rd I think it was, we made it to the place
I turned to Burke and said Good man, supplies are running low
We'll make it back to Cooper's Creek, from there I just don't know

Where are all the seagulls, will we reach the sea?
We will find those seagulls, Burke and wills and me

Yes they made it back to Cooper's Creek and asked the question why
The depot was abandoned there, oh Lord were they to die
They made it just another mile before they came to rest
Burke turned to Wills and said My man we did our very best

Yes we saw the seagulls, and we saw the sea?
Yes we saw those seagulls, Burke and wills and me

Oh, oh new day. Moving curtains, motion hair
I'm so glad to be back home again

Oh, oh today. Think I'll go and make a try
Oh, oh today. To touch the earth and paint the sky

Hello, hello, hello
Good morning to you one and all

Oh, oh new day. Moving curtains, motion hair
I'm so glad to be back home again

Freedom Seekers
People, places, shapes and sizes
I'll tell you where I've been
Moonlight bands and sunny shores
Have you been there too
Do you want me, do you need me
To be your heart and soul
Find your goal, you know you always wanted to

All you freedom seekers. Seek and you will find
The things you find will be your peace of mind

Your daughters got her boyfriend black
They've gone away and wont be back
In the hills they dance and clap
with music where their heads are at

Now dancin' Harry's gone away
He took his stash and split the scene
He's growin' beans on a sunny hill
He left the system and he left the noisy trains

See and drive the new cortina
The active car for the young at heart

Howlin' At The Moon
I saw you there by yourself
Trying to be up so tight
Far away signals come across the room
Connected by a satelite
I turn around to see you smile
My heart just wouldn't stay in tune
When you aim that moondog love at me
Makes me want to howl at the moon

You got me howling
Tearing my hair out for you
You got me screaming
Head over heels over you

Saw your eyes shining bright
Ooh you had that red dress on
Love that fire in the heat of the night
I think we knew it all along
Well! You don't know what you're doing to me
You're making me a heck of a fool
Tossin' and turnin', I'm down on my knee
Makes me want to howl at the moon

Took a walk in the moonlight
Talk about the prophits of doom
Solve the problems of the universe
But still I've gotta howl at the moon

He's goin' nowhere
He's goin' mad
He's goin' ga ga
He's got it so bad

Bedtime Girl
Ooh, Ooh she's my bedtime girl
I'm dreaming that she's in my world
Ooh, Ooh she's my goodtime girl
She's my fantasy. Well I believe in, I believe in her

I think my girl's so pretty
There's no-one better out there
Many just think that I'm foolin'
You know you'd better beware
She always calls around midnight
In her diamonds and pearls
Just as I'm starting to sleep tight
She's my lite up little girl

Ooh, Ooh she's my bedtime girl
I'm dreaming that she's in my world
Ooh, Ooh she's my goodtime girl
She's my fantasy and I'm needing, needing her
I can see her breaking, I can see her breaking, I can see her breaking hearts

I must be going crazy yeah, 'Cause there she is again
And all I remember is counting sheep. Six, seven, eight, nine, ten
But there she is standing beside me, babe in her leather and lace
Don't pinch me I don't wanna wake up yeah, I wanna stay in this place
When I wake in the morning babe, what a terrible state I'm in
All tangled up like Houdini yeah, but what a night it's been

Birth of the Beat
Oohaaaarh yeah
Yesterday is gone and I'm sad to say
The music really rocked in a special way
Back in '65 the bands could really play
Ooh you knew you were alive 'cause they made that way

And we all sang out as the bands played with jump and shout
And we all sang out, yeah they knew what Rock and Roll was all about

At the beginning at the start
Hey the songs back then came straight from the heart
And I got a lot of kicks back in '66
And I burned pretty hot and learned their licks
We just couldn't stay in our seat back in the days of the birth of the beat
We were all learning to use our feet back in the days of the birth of the beat
Good rockin' music had a lot things to say
Good rockin' music still makes me wanna roll today, come on roll baby

I can remember the beat so strong
Driving in the car with the radio on
It's the same old feeling that I've got today
Hey, hey, Rock and music will never fade away

Tears of Sorrow
Her hair it felt like satin, her eyes were shining like the morning sun
Her skin it felt like petals, on flowers blooming in a springtime garden
Slowly wilt away, slowly wilt away to come to life another day
???? take me away
Lie your head upon my bed, cry on my pillow too
Tears of sorrow fill your eyes, fresh with morning dew mmmm (solo)

Willie and the Hand Jive
I know a cat called way out Willie
Got a cool little chick called Rockin' Lily
Well he walking, strollin' through the queues
And doing that crazy hand jive too
Hand jive, Hand jive, Hand jive, doin' that crazy hand jive

When he did that hand jive with his feet
Hand jive, Hand jive, Hand jive, doin' that crazy hand jive

Ooh ooh way out Willie (fade)
