Three Dog Night Album

Mason

Seems I've got to have a change in scene
Every night I have the strangest dreams
Imprisoned by the way it should have been
Left here on my own or so it seems
I've got to leave before I start to scream
Someone's locked the door, she's took the key

Feelin alright?
I'm not feelin to good myself
Feelin alright I'm not feeling to good myself

Well, boy you sure took me for one big ride
And even now I sit and wonder why
And when I think of you I start to cry
I just can't wipe my face, I must keep dry
I gotta stop believin' in all your lies
Cause there's so much to do before I die

Feelin alright?
I'm not feelin to good myself
Feelin alright I'm not feeling to good myself

(Feelin' alright)Don't believe in all I say
(I'm not feelin' to good myself)
Cause at that time I really felt that way
(Feelin' alright)But that was then and now it is today
(I'm not feelin' to good myself)
I can't get off so yet, I'm here to stay
(Feelin' alright)Till someone comes along and takes my place
(Feelin' alright)With a different name and yes a different place

Feelin alright?
I'm not feelin to good myself
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Feelin alright, alright, alright, alright, I'm not feeling to good myself
Good God, good God almighty I feel good
Feelin alright, alright, alright, alright, I'm not feeling to good myself
Feelin alright?
I'm not feelin to good myself
Feelin alright, alright, alright, alright, I'm not feeling to good myself

When the shrill winds are screaming
And the evening is still
Lady samantha glides over the hill
In a long satin dress that she wears every day
Her home is the hillside, her bed is the grave

Lady samantha glides like a tiger
Over the hills with no one beside her
No one comes near
They all live in fear
But lady samantha, she sheds only tears

The tales that I told round the fire every night
Are out of proportion and none of them right
She is harmless and empty of anything bad
For she once had something that most of you have

I am weeping, always sleeping
Dreading when the light comes in
Dreaming of tomorrow and the happiness that it can bring

Contemplatin' and debating as the time just drifts away
You will find today can be tomorrow if you let tomorrow be today
Don't wait, don't hesitate
'Cause I want to tell ya
And I have to tell ya
Dreaming isn't good for you unless you do
The things it tells you to

Contemplatin' and debating as the time just drifts away
You will find today can be tomorrow
If you let tomorrow be today
Don't wait, don't hesitate
'Cause I want to tell ya
And I have to tell you
Dreaming isn't good for you unless you do
The things it tells you to

Cooke

I was born by a river in a little tent,
And just like this river,
I've been running ever since.
It's been a too long, too long-time a-coming,
But I know a change gonna come,
Oh, yes, it is.

It's been too hard living,
And I'm afraid to die.
I don't know what's up there beyond the sky.
It's been a long time a, long time a-coming,
But I know, Lord I know a change gonna come, Lord.
Yeah, yes.

And then I went to see my brother, oh yeah.
I said, "Brother, help me, please."
He turned me down.
And then I went, I went to see my sweet mother.
I said, "Mama, Mama I'm down on my knees."
It's been a too hard living,
And I'm afraid to die.
I don't know what's up there beyond the sky.
It's been a long, long time a-coming,
But I know, but I know a change gonna come.
Oh, long.

Eli's comin'
Eli's comin' (Eli's a-comin')
Well you better hide your heart, your loving heart
Eli's a-comin' and the cards say... a broken heart

Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl
Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl
Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide
Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide
Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide
Girl, Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl (hide it)
You better, better hide your heart
Eli's comin', better walk

Walk but you'll never get away
No, you'll never get away from the burnin' a-heartache
I walked to Apollo by the bay
Everywhere I go though, Eli's a-comin' (she walked but she never got away)
Eli's a-comin' (she walked but she never got away)
Eli's a-comin' and he's comin' to git ya (she walked but... she walked
but...)
Get down on your knees (she walked but she never got away)

Eli's comin' (hide it, hide it, hide it)
Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide
Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide
Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide
Girl, Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl (hide it)
You better, better hide your heart
Eli's comin', better walk

Walk but you'll never get away
No, you'll never get away from the burnin' a-heartache
I walked to Apollo by the bay
Everywhere I go though, Eli's a-comin' (she walked but she'll never get
away)
Eli's a-comin' (she walked but she'll never get away)
Eli's a-comin' and he's comin' to git ya (she walked but... she walked
but...)
Get down on your knees (she walked but she'll never get away)
Get down on your knees

No-no, no-no
Lord, I said no-no, no-no, no-no

(hide it) She can
(hide it) hide it
(hide it) You better
(hide it) Somebody
(hide it) You got t'
(hide it) Oh, my
(hide it) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to be hard, easy to be cold

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be proud, easy to say no

Especially people who care about strangers
Who care about evil and social injustice
Do you only care about bleeding crowd
How about a needing friend, I need a friend

How can people be so heartless
You know I'm hung up on you
Easy to be proud, easy to say no

Especially people who care about strangers
Who care about evil and social injustice
Do you only care about bleeding crowd
How about a needing friend, we all need a friend

How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to be proud, easy to say no
Easy to be cold, easy to say no
Come, on, easy to give in, easy to say no
Easy to be cold, easy to say no
Much too easy to say no

Parker-Banks

I know the desert can't hold all the love
That I feel in my heart for you,
If I could spell it out across the sea,
I know my love would cover it up.

Ain't that a lotta love
For one heart to hold.

If the bees only knew how sweet you are, baby,
They would seal up their honeycomb.
If the birds could hear how sweet your voice is
They would tighten up their song.

(Ain't that a lotta love)
Ain't that a lotta love
For one heart to hold.

Your lips are so sweet honey, you're my ev'ry need,
You got a, ha, a smile so rare, a smile, girl, I can't compare.
Ain't that a lotta love, yeah.

If the cooks in the kitchen had a touch as hot as yours
They wouldn't need a fire, ha.
If the words in the world could describe you better
They wouldn't need the skys above.

Ain't that a lotta love
Ain't that a lotta love for one heart to hold.
Ain't that a lotta love
Ain't that a lotta love
Ain't that a lotta love
Ain't that a lotta love
Ain't that a lotta love

Hutton

You've got your head up in the air
Act like you don't even care
When I tell ya I'll be there
Come on, stop what your doin to me.

Circle for a landing, get your feet back on the ground
Circle for a landing, its time to come on down
Just the thought of losing you is more than I can take
Circle for a landing before it's too late

No one loves you like I do
When I think I think of you
I'll have to find somebody new
If you don't stop what else can I do?

Circle for a landing, get your feet back on the ground
Circle for a landing, its time to come on down, chickie, chickie
Just the thought of losing you is more than I can take
Circle for a landing before it's too late

Used to think I knew you, ha
Now you're flying much to high
Now baby I can see right through ya
Your afraid that love will make you cry

Circle for a landing, get your feet back on the ground
Circle for a landing, its time to come on down, chickie, chickie
Just the thought of losing you is more than I can take
Circle for a landing before it's too late

Circle for a landing, get your feet back on the ground
Circle for a landing, its time to come on down
Circle for a landing, get your feet back on the ground
Circle for a landing, its time to come on down

Slippin' away, sittin' on a pillow
Waitin' for night to fall
A girl and a dream, sittin' on a pillow
This is the night to go to the celebrity ball

Satin and lace, isn't it a pity
Didn't find time to call
Ready or not, gonna make it to the city
This is the night to go to the celebrity ball

Dress up tonight, why be lonely?
You'll stay at home and you'll be alone
So why be lonely?
Sittin' alone, sittin' on a pillow
Waitin' to climb the walls
Maybe tonight, depending how your dream goes
She'll open her eyes when he goes to the celebrity ball

Celebrate, celebrate, dance to the music
Celebrate, celebrate, dance to the music
Celebrate, celebrate, dance to the music
