Hey Momma,
Do you hear the thunder?
And the voice, so loudly, in my head?
It's been a day or two
Since smoke was choking you
You gotta, you gotta know now
Nine lives are split in two
I'd give them all to you
You gotta, you gotta know now
Oregon to Timbuktwo
I'd go away with you
You gotta, you gotta know now
I know that this is true
I'm so in love with you
You gotta, you gotta know now
Hey honey,
You know you drive me happy?
And the voice aint so loud now
Aint so loud now in my head!
Hey baby,
I hope you know you changed me
And my heart can be held
yeah, my heart can be held in your hands!

I told Althea I was feeling lost
Lacking in some direction
Althea told me upon scrutiny
That my back might need protection
I told Althea that treachery
Was tearing me limb from limb
Althea told me, now cool down boy
Settle back easy, Jim
You may be Saturday's child all grown
Moving with a pinch of grace
You may be a clown in the burying ground
Or just another pretty face
You may be the fate of Ophelia
Sleeping and perchance to dream
Honest to the point of recklessness
Self-centred to the extreme
Ain't nobody messin' with you but you
Your friends are getting most concerned
Loose with the truth, maybe its your fire
Baby I hope you don't get burned
When the smoke has cleared, she said
That's what she said to me
You're gonna want a bed to lay your head
And a little sympathy
There are things you can replace
And others you cannot
The time has come to weigh those things
This space is gettin' hot
You know this space is gettin' hot
I told Althea, I'm a roving sign
That I was born to be a bachelor
Althea told me, OK that's fine
So now I'm trying to catch her
Can't talk to you without talking to me
We're guilty of the same old things
Thinking a lot about less and less
And forgetting the love we bring
By Jerome Garcia and Robert Hunter

We been workin on lovin
And it seems we got it right
Little human coming our way
In the dark you will be our light and
Never thought I could do this
But I can’t wait to see
Little honey lookin our way
Smilin up at you and me
Baby, baby
It’s gunna be alright
Your momma loves you
And dad’s been up all night
Baby, baby
It’s gunna be brand new
I feel so lucky
To be loving you two
Well, I’ve had my eyes wide open
Whole world turned right side up
Don’t know what I have done
To have this overflowin cup, but
I’ll take while I get it
Work hard while I can, I got
Three hearts to be feedin
In this treacherous land

Looks like the suns coming out now
You know I’ll be there
Playin shows don’t even make a dime
You know I don’t care
Gotta get when the going gets good
And I met you there
In the river of love and peace
You know I’ll be there
Oh, we’re livin in a time that’s wild and fast
Oh, there is strength among us to the last
Keep it heady steady, keep it loose
Write to home when you get there, if you do
Been keepin it simple myself,
You know I’ll get there
Feel my body float with the wind
It’s like I see clear
You gotta know when the love is right
You met me there
Let’s stay up through the night
I know you’ll be there

Borrowed Time

If I had a dollar
For every dollar sign
I have lost or gave away
Most my life
I could be a millionaire
At least have a couple bucks
It’s all fine
When you know you’re on borrowed time
I saw you
And I knew it was light
You were light
By virtue
You stood true
By my side
Oh my life
I saw you
And I knew it was light
You were light yeah
Family is a funny word
Depends what side you’re on
Everyone is right inside the mind
It’s easy to forget
What has brought us here together
And that love
Is never outta sight
