Singing Winds, Crying Beasts

"Got a black magic woman
Got a black magic woman.

I got a black magic woman
Got me so blind I can't see
That she's a black magic woman
She's tryin' to make a devil out of me.

Don't turn your back on me baby
Don't turn your back on me baby.

Yes, don't turn your back on me baby
Stop messin' eround with your tricks
Don't turn your back on me baby
You just might pick up my magic sticks.

Got your spell on me baby
Got your spell on me baby.

Yes you got your spell on me baby
Turning my heart into stone
I need you so bad - magic woman
I can't leave you alone. "

From nowhere
Through a caravan
Around the campfire light
A lovely woman in motion
With hair as dark as night
Her eyes were like that
Of a cat in the dark
They hypnotize me with love

She was a gypsy woman
She was a gypsy woman

She danced around and round
To a guitar melody
From the fire her face
Was all aglow
How she enchanted me
Oh how I’d like to hold her near
And kiss and forever whisper in her ear

I love you gypsy woman

All through the caravan
She was dancing with all the men
Waiting for the rising sun
Everyone was having fun

I hate to see the lady go
Knowing she’ll never know
That I love her

That I love her

She danced around and round
To a guitar melody
From the fire her face
Was all aglow
How she enchanted me
Oh how I’d like to hold her near
And kiss and forever whisper in her ear

Oye como va mi ritmo

Incident At Neshabur

(Music/ Lyrics: Jose Arreas)

Se a cabo
Se a cabo
Se a cabo
Se a cabo

(Music/ Lyrics: Gregg Rolie)

Got no time for foolin' with you baby
Your stupid game is about to end.
You played it out.
Thought you had it made.
And it looks like someone passed you by again.

I left her standin' in her corner
She told me she was tryin' to find her way.
I've got to leave before I get much older
Cause she ain't moved in nearly forty days.

I've got a woman that's treatin' me better.
She takes her time and she ain't so cruel.
I've got someone to take you over
Your mother ain't so bad,
What happened to you?

. . .

Samba Pa Ti

(Music/ Lyrics: Gregg Rolie)

Is that you
Your eyes slowly fading?
Is that you
Your mind full of tears?
Is that you
Searching for a good time?
Is that you
Waitin' for all these years?

Chorus:
And I hope you're feelin' better
Yes I hope you're feelin' good
Yes I hope you're feelin' better

Is that you?
Look across the ocean
Is that you
Thinkin nothin' is really there?
Is that you
Waiting for the sunshine?
Is that you
When all you see is glare?

Chorus

Is that you
Who never saw your baby? 
Is that you
Who never had a friend? 
Is that you
Movin' to a new town? 
Is that you
Will di'monds replace your friends? 

Chorus

Re pica pica ya vamonos Chepito
La la la la la - la la la la la la la
Re pica pica ya vamonos Chepito

Re pica ya vamonos Chepito
Re pica pica ya vamonos Chepito

(Music/ Lyrics: Jose Arreas)

Se a cabo
Se a cabo
Se a cabo
Se a cabo

Los cueros me llaman 
(repeat)

El timbal

Vamos morena a bailar mi montuno
