Coming Down Hard On Me Baby lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

Come on down hard on me baby
Come on down hard as you can
Come on down hard on me baby
Lord, come on down hard as you can
Come on down hard on me baby
Show me that I'm your lover man

Come on down hard juicy
Turn me into jelly bread
Bring that love down hard on me baby
Rock me, rock me right through the bed
Come on down hard on me baby
Please show me I'm your lover man

I want to love you so much 'til I hope we can make it
I want to love you so much 'til I hope I don't break it
I want to love you so much 'til I can't stand it
I want to love you so strong 'til you've got to say you've had it
Yeah

Blue Suede Shoes lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

(originally by Carl Perkins)

Well, it's one for the money
Two for the show
Three to get ready
Now go, cat, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes

Well, you can knock me down
Step in my face
Slander my name
All over the place
Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh
Honey, lay off of my shoes
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes

You can burn my house
Steal my car
Drink my liquor
From an old fruit jar
Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey, lay off of my shoes
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Rock

Well, it's one for the money
Two for the show
Three to get ready
Now go, cat, go
But don't you step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes

Well it's
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes, yeah
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes baby
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes

The Stars That Play With Laughing Sam's Dice lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

The stars up above that play with Laughing Sam's dice
They make us feel that it was the world for us
The Zodiac grass and dreams will come through the skies
It will happen soon, for you

Alright now, everybody just keep it together now
Away we go!

Yeah
Thank you very much
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you very much
And now we would like to bring to you our one and only friendly neighborhood experience maker
Yeah
Right now, listen
Thank you very much

The Milky Way express is loaded, all aboard
I promise each and every one of you, you won't be bored
Now these next lines will keep everybody honest and straight
What I'm really singing about is my brand-new pair of butterfly roller skates

Thank you, thank you
And now watch me ride
Yeah

I'd like to say that there will be no throwing cigarette butts out the window
No throwing cigarette butts out the window thank you, thank you
I hope all of you got your toothbrush
Now to the right you will see Saturn
Out of sight, really out of sight
And if you look to the left you will see Mars
I hope you brought your parachute with you

Hey look out!
Look out for that door
Don't open that door
Don't open that door
Oh well
That's the way it goes
Now we're coming through the Milky Way section
Green cornflakes and stuff like that, the Milky Way
Yeah, everything's alright and out of sight
If you look around you, you will see a few minds being blown
Exactly. Assembly, baby
I hope you enjoy your ride. I am

Drifter's Escape lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

"Oh, help me in my weakness"
I heard the drifter say
As they carried him from the court room
And were taking him away
Well, my trip hasn't been a pleasant one
And my time it isn't long
And I still do not know
What is was that I've done wrong

Well, the judge, he cast his robe aside
A tear came to his eye
"Well, you fail to understand," he said
"Why must you even try?"
Outside, the crowd was stirring
You could hear it from the door
Inside, the judge was stepping down
While the jury cried for more
Cried for more, cried for more
Hey, you better leave that boy's soul alone

Oh, stop that passing the jury
Grab me a tendon and me a nurse
Oh, the trial was bad enough
Yes, but this is ten times worse
Just then bolt of lightning
Showed the court house out of shape
And while everybody knelt to pray
The drifter made his escape
The drifter did his escape

Yeah
So long

Burning Desire lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

Burning desire sets my soul on fire
Burning desire sets my soul on fire
I feel my body drowning in your sea of love
But in the meantime there's nothing to dream

Between Hell and Heaven you just may see me chase my heart everywhere
Burning desire hotter than an electric chair

Burning desire hotter than an electric chair

Last night sure was sweet
It sure was good this time around
You really sent me around and around, 'round and 'round

You came on down hard on me baby
You showed me just how love could be
I wish I could stay baby
But I'm just a night bird flying over the sea
And I'm trying not to drown

Burning desire hotter than an electric chair

(I'm Your) Hoochie Coochie Man lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

(originally by Muddy Waters)

Now the gypsy woman told my mother
A'before I was born
She say "You got a boy child's a'coming
He's gonna be a son of a gun
He's gonna make you girls
Jump and shout
Then the world–
Then the world better know
What it's all about"

But you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him, yeah
I'm the hoochie-coochie man
Everybody knows I'm him

I've got a black cat bone
I've got a mojo too, baby
I got the little child a'comin'
He's gonna come and mess with you
I'm gonna make you girls
Take me by my hand
And then the world–
Then the world better know
I'm the hoochie-coochie man, yeah

Everybody knows I'm him
Well you know I'm the hoochie-coochie man
Everybody knows I'm him, yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Now, on the seventh night
Of the seventh month
Of the seventh week
The seven doctors say
"He was born for good luck
That you'll see
I got seven hundred girlfriends and dollars
So don't you mess with me"
You know I'm him

Everybody knows I'm him
I'm the hoochie-coochie man
Every, every, everybody knows I'm him

Have You Ever Been (To Electric Ladyland) lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

Have you ever been (Have you ever been?)
To Electric Ladyland?
The magic carpet waits for you
So don't you be late, oh

(I wanna show you) The different emotions
(I wanna run you) The sounds and motions
Electric woman waits for you and me
So it's time we take a ride
You can cast all your hang-ups over the side
While we fly right over the love-filled sea
Look up ahead, I see the loveland
Soon you'll understand, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Make love, make love)
(Make love, make love)

(I wanna show you)
The angels will spread their wings
Spread their wings
(I wanna show you)
Good and evil lay side by side
While electric love penetrates the sky
(I wanna show you) Lord, Lord, Lord
I wanna show you
(I wanna show you) Hmm-hmm-hmm
(I wanna show you) Show you
(I wanna show you) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

Dolly Dagger lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

Here comes Dolly Dagger
Her love's so heavy, gonna make you stagger
Dolly Dagger, she drinks her blood from a jagged edge
(Drink up, baby)

Been riding broomsticks since she was fifteen
Blow out all the other witches on the scene
She got a bull whip, just as long as your life
Her tongue can even scratch the soul out of the devil's wife

Well, I seen her in action at the players' choice
Turning all the love men into donut boys
Hey red hot momma, you'd better step aside
This chick's gonna turn you to a block of ice
Look out

Here comes Dolly Dagger
Her love's so strong gonna make you stagger, baby
Dolly Dagger
She drinks the blood from a jagged edge
Right on
Drink up baby
Hey!

Yeah, look at old burnt-out Superman
Tryin' to shoot his dust on the sun
Captain Comic is the man on the run
On the words of love
Do they ever touch Dolly Brown
Better get in some highway and clear outta town

Here comes Dolly Dagger
Her love's so heavy, gonna make you stagger
Dolly Dagger
She ain't satisfied 'til she gets what she's after
She drinks the blood from the jagged edge
Better watch out, baby, here comes your master
Alright
Watch out there, baby
Gonna give a little bit of that

(Dolly, heavy mama
Get it on, get it on, get it on
Dolly, heavy mama
Get it on, get it on, get it on
Dolly, heavy mama
Get it on, get it on, get it on
Dolly, heavy mama
Get it on, get it on, get it on, get it on
Get it on, get it on, get it on, get it on
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Earth Blues lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

Well, I see hands and tear-stained faces
Reaching up but not quite touching the promised land
Well, I taste tears and a whole lot of precious years wasted
Saying 'Lord, please give us a helping hand'

(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Lord, there's got to be some changes
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Gonna be a whole lot of re-arranges
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
You better hope love is the answer
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Yeah, it better come before the summer

Well, everybody can hear the sound of freedom's beating heart
Sirens flashing with earth and rocking stoning
You better love me like it's gonna be the last time
And tell our child to bury daddy's old clothes

(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Yeah, they're talking about getting together, yeah
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Together for love love love
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
You better hope love is the answer, baby
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
I think you better hope it comes before the summer

(Everybody)

Every sister

Every mother
(Everybody)
To feel the light
(Everybody)
It's shining bright, baby

We got to live together, oh

Feel those earth blues coming at you, baby

Don't let your imagination take you by surprise
A queen and me, I, one day, visualise
My head in the cloud, my feet on the pavement
Don't get too stoned, please remember, you're a man

(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Lord, there's got to be some changes
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Living together's gonna be a lot of re-arranges
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
You better be ready, Lord, my Lord
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Just hope love comes before the summer

Room Full Of Mirrors lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

I used to live in a room full of mirrors
All I could see was me
Well, I take my spirit and I smash my mirrors
Now the whole world is here for me to see
I said the whole world is here for me to see
Now I am searching for my love to be
Hey!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Rubber glass was all in my brain
Cotton screaming crying in my head
Rubber glass was all in my brain
Just the thought of my dreams cut me in my bed
And just the thought of my dreams cut me in my bed
I said making love was strange in my bed

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

All right
Ooh ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
No place stumping
No place far
Can't find the floor
Nowhere at all
See nothing but sunshine
All around

Love come shining over the mountains
Love come shining over the sea
Love will shine on my baby
Then I'll know who's exactly for me
Lord, I'll know who will be for me
In the meantime, which is a groovy time

Star Spangled Banner lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

(Instrumental)

Look Over Yonder lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

Look over yonder, here come the blues
The thirteenth of any time, powered by fools
I can see them coming
Wearing a blue armored coat
You're sitting here with your violins
Hitting wrong notes
Look over yonder, he's coming my way
When he's around, I never have a happy day
(You even bust my guitar strings)

Look over yonder
Look over yonder
Look over yonder
Look over yonder

Well, he's talking to my baby
They found my peace pipe on her
Now they're dragging her away
Lord knows we don't need a devil like him beating us around
Well, he's knocking on my door
How my house is tumbling down
Now don't you come no closer
The path is keeping me bolder
Wait by my door, baby
Unless you want to start another war

Look over yonder
Look over yonder
Look over yonder
Look over yonder

Hear My Train A Comin' lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

Well, I hear my train a comin'
Hear my
Hear my train a comin'

Ayy ayy ayy yeah-eah

Well, I
Wait around the train station
Waitin' for that train
Take me, take me
Take me away
From this
Lonesome town
Lonesome town
Too bad you don't love me no more, girl
Too bad your people put me down
Hey, hey, hey

Tears burnin' me
Tears burnin' me in my eyes
Way down
Way down in my soul
Tears burnin' me way down in my heart
Yeah
Too bad you don't love me no more, girl
Too bad you and me had to part
Had to part

Well, I hear my train a comin'
Hear my train a comin'
Hear my train a comin'
Hear my train a comin'

Well, I hear my train a comin'
Hear my train a comin'

Hey Baby (New Rising Sun) lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

Is the microphone on?

Hey, baby... where do you come from?
Well she looked at me and smiled and looked into space...
And said, "I'm coming from the land of a new rising sun."
Then I said, "Hey, baby, where ya trying to go to?"
Then she says, "I'm gonna spin and spread around peace of mind...
And a whole lotta love to you and you!"

Hey, girl! I'd like to come along!
Yes, I'd like to come along!
"Would you like to come along?" she asked me.
Yes take me along, right now!

Hey, baby, can I step into your world a while?
"Yes you can," she said, "come on back with me for a while-
We're gonna go cross the Jupiter's sands,
And see all your people one by one!
We gotta help the people out right now...
That's what I'm doing here, all about."

Yeah! Yeah! May I come along?
May I come along?
May I come along? Yeah! Yeah!
Please take me!
