NAZARETH:   Nazareth

Witchdoctor Woman

I'll make the stars fall out of the sky
Make the seas and the rivers run dry
There is nothing I can't do
Lord I'll put my spell on you

Praise the mountains down to the ground
Make the clouds and the rain fall down
There is nothing I can't do
Lord I'll put my spell on you

I'm your witchdoctor woman
And I'm gonna put my spell on you
I'm your witchdoctor woman
Lord I got my mind on you

Dear John

You came 'round today
You never even knocked on my door
Your note tried to say
That you don't love me no more

I want you by my side cause
I wanna be your man
I'm burning up inside cause
I wanna be your man

I had to be told
From people that I meet in the street
They are turning cold
Without you I would not be complete
Why did you write me in a letter
A word from you would be much better

I want you by my side cause
I wanna be your man
I'm burning up inside cause
I wanna be your man

Don't cast me aside
Without you I could never survive
Why did you decide
To kill the love that keeps me alive

Empty Arms, Empty Heart

Now you say you're leaving
Leaving me without a friend
How can you do what you're doing to me
How can you say you want to be free of me

Now you say it's over
And your walkin' out my door
Tellin' me you're going away for good
Never coming back and I'll never see you again

You left me here with my empty arms
My empty rooms
And my empty heart is crying

Nothing is left for me now you're gone
It just ain't right and I know it can't last I'm dying

I Had A Dream

I had a dream
I had a dream
I saw the mission band, playing on the green
It was the saddest thing,I have ever seen
What did it mean, what did it all mean?

And in my dream, in my same dream
I saw the soldiers marching, on the green
The band played a funeral march
Many a tear was seen
All in my dream, all in my dream

I heard the lesson read, I heard the choir
I saw the falling leaves, landing everywhere
I saw the family gathered, crying in despair
I was not there, I was not there

Red Light Lady

Down at the house with the red light
She works from seven til dawn
You'll find her there any time that you like
Some days a week she'll be on
Down at the house with the red light

I was a boy not to sure of myself
When I was first taken down
Down to the house with the red light
Two miles west of town
I paid my fee and I went on in

Into the house with the red light
Pull up a chair, up the stairs
The key was cold and dampened my hand
Opened the door, heard her say:
"Into my room and set yourself down"

She let us lie on this shiny brass bed
Curtains and flowers in her hair
She played my soul and she shattered my head
Could not believe I was there
Down at the house with the red light

I fell in love with that lady
First love I knew, she gave me
Seven days a week, you can find her
Down at the house with the red light

I fell in love with that lady

Fat Man

Fat man at the window
Bet you know why
Fat man at the window
Nobody wants to buy
Fat man, fat man, fat man
Nobody wants to know him
Fat man

Fat man at the mirror
Don't let it break easy
Fat man at the mirror
Got no heart to please
Fat man, fat man, fat man
Nobody wants to know him
Fat man

Nobody wants to talk to him
Walk with him, be seen with him
Nobody wants to speak to him
Be with him, look like him

Country Girl

You are a girl from the country
Your eyes remind me of the sun
You came to visit in the city
And won the heart's of everyone

You are a girl from the country
Your hair is colored like the corn
I have never been outside the city
I am no friend to anyone

Country girl won't you stay a while
Won't you stay a while with me
Country girl won't you stay a while
Let me see you smile for me

You are a girl from the country
Before you came I was alone
Please say you'll take me to the country
And let me share your country home

Morning Dew

Walk me out in the morning dew
Walk me out in the morning dew today
I can't walk you out in no morning dew
I can't walk you out in no morning dew at all

Thought I heard a young girl cryin' mama
Thought I heard a young girl cry today
You never heard no young girl cryin'
You never heard no young girl cry at all

Thought I heard a young boy cryin' mama
Thought I heard a young boy cry today
You didn't hear no young boy cryin' buddy
You never heard no young boy cry at all

Thought I heard a young man cryin' mama
Thought I heard a young man cry today
You never heard no young man cryin'
You never heard no young man cry at all

Now there is no more morning dew
Now there is no more morning dew
What they've been sayin' all these years is true
Now there is no more morning dew

The King Is Dead

I have not come to worship you
Only flowers at your throne

I have not come to plead or beg
Or to claim what is my own

Oh I know you are the king
And you'll say what is wrong

I have come to cut you down
And to leave your body dead

You do not mean so much to me
Nor that crown upon your head

You are just as sad as me
You are lonely flesh and blood

And the time has come for you to die

And now you bleed, please spare my life
You know I'm the chosen one
I don't believe what you bequeth
And I must do what must be done

You say you're the only king
Your words just fall like rain
