1Red Star Line (Live @ Ummagumma) (lyrics)
Hit the road and take your chances
Every boy must have his goal
Standing high upon the table
With my dreams of rock n roll
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Up these stairs
Headed for another hundred miles
With the rhythm of your radio
See the spotlights turn a fire
Different state and a brand new show
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Up these stairs
Bridge
instrumentaal
Every night when I’m all alone
Nobody here to see my game
Standing high upon the table
Let me dream of rock and roll fame
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Up these stairs, up these stairs, up these stairs
Up these stairs, up these stairs, up these stairs
Up these stairs
Hit the road and take my chances, what I always will believe
Hit the road and take my chances, what I always will believe
(x)
Hit the road and take your chances
Every boy must have his goal
Standing high upon the table
With my dreams of rock n roll
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Up these stairs
Headed for another hundred miles
With the rhythm of your radio
See the spotlights turn a fire

3Hold Back Time (Live @ Ummagumma) (lyrics)
I am out here on my own again
Waiting by track number nine
See the last train go into the night
There is nobody left to see my pain
Only the first moonshine
Feel the cold wind freezes my sight
Come let the train slow down
Let you step on down
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
Every day I can see the stars
Most of the times it makes me weep
Cuz I see your ways slip into mine
Every night I must fight my wars
The scars and pain cut to deep
While your last goodbye echoes my mind
Come let the train slow down
Let you step on down
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
Out on this lost railway
I’ll wait each and every day
Till you come home to stay
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
Come let the train slow down
Let you step on down
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
I am out here on my own again
Older than ever before
Take the last train off into the night
Into the night, into the night
Into the night
(x)
I am out here on my own again
Waiting by track number nine
See the last train go into the night
There is nobody left to see my pain
Only the first moonshine
Feel the cold wind freezes my sight
Come let the train slow down
Let you step on down
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
Every day I can see the stars
Most of the times it makes me weep
Cuz I see your ways slip into mine
Every night I must fight my wars
The scars and pain cut to deep
While your last goodbye echoes my mind
Come let the train slow down
Let you step on down
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
Out on this lost railway
I’ll wait each and every day
Till you come home to stay
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
Come let the train slow down
Let you step on down
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
I am out here on my own again
Older than ever before
Take the last train off into the night
Into the night, into the night

Red Star Line, take me far away
Goodbye Louise, I’m leaving today
Wherever I may go, wherever I may roam
Home is where I’m born
Late October in a blistering cold
Antwerp shore I’m ready to board
Tell momma I love her, tell sister goodnight
Pray for lost souls in the morning light
Red Star Line, take me far away
Goodbye Louise, I’m leaving today
Wherever I may go, wherever I may roam
Home is where I’m born
I’m sailing away to foreign shores
Red Star Line I’m far from home
Got a suitcase of clothes, sold silver and gold
With pockets full of dreams and high hopes
Red Star Line, take me far away
Goodbye Louise, I’m leaving today
Wherever I may go, wherever I may roam
Home is where I’m born
Docked at Ellis Island, no strength to fight
All alone and frightened, holding on to pride

Wherever I may go, wherever I may roam
Home is where I’m born

1Come Dance (lyrics)
I’ve been to many places and I cannot tell
I’ve been to many places and I cannot tell
Left Vicksburg, Mississippi one day to soon
I’ve seen the Devil, walking hand in hand
I’ve seen the Devil, walking hand in hand
Lord have mercy, save me from this hell
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
There is something in his eyes that says
There is something in his eyes that says
Please scare this demon away
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
I’m all struck down, I’m loosing my faith
I’m all struck down, I lost my faith
Felt the ground fall from below my feet
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me

Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
There is something in his eyes that says
There is something in his eyes that says
Please scare this demon away
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,

Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
3Angel of Montgomery
Come dance with me, if you make me smile
My heart will shoot you down
Come dance with me, if you make me cry
Then I will shoot you down
I was born down by the river bend, I dream of reaching rainbow’s end
I must be fighting back all my goddamn life, now I’m ready and I will defend
Come dance with me, if you make me smile
My heart will shoot you down
Come dance with me, if you make me cry
Then I will shoot you down
I gave up my heart near the county line, Danny came down from Caroline
I must be fighting back all my goddamn life, ‘for I trust you with this good heart of mine
If you put heartbreak into my heart, you gotta pick your grave on the graveyard
I have been fighting all my goddamn life, I’m sorry dear, there is no new start
Come dance with me, if you make me smile
My heart will shoot you down
Come dance with me, if you make me cry
Then I will shoot you do-o-wn

3Home Ground (lyrics)
I’m going back to my hometown,
Back to the banks and parks I used to know
I’ve crossed the dirt road, down to town
I left the neon signs far behind
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
I’m going back again
Out in the city of endless streetlights,
Drummed in the crowd no place left to go
It overcome me wishing to be back home again
Whenever I feel the stars don’t shine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
I’m going back again
When the thriving heart of my soul,
Whenever it needs a shelter of this storm
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
I’m going back again
Going back again,
Going back again
(x)
I’m going back to my hometown,
Back to the banks and parks I used to know
I’ve crossed the dirt road, down to town
I left the neon signs far behind
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
I’m going back again
Out in the city of endless streetlights,
Drummed in the crowd no place left to go
It overcome me wishing to be back home again
Whenever I feel the stars don’t shine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
I’m going back again
When the thriving heart of my soul,
Whenever it needs a shelter of this storm
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
I’m going back again
Going back again,
Going back again
4My Love Is True (lyrics)
My love for you is strong, it keeps me going on
As you stumble as you fall, I’d come each time you call
My love for you is true, my love for you is true
In everything I do, my love for you is true
And when the morning comes, I’m feeling one foot small
As I lie in your perfect arms, you vex me with your charms
My love for you is true, my love for you is true
In everything I do, my love for you is true
I stand here with my pride, keep my head up high
I’ll ask you to be my wife, I’ll offer you my life
My love for you is true, my love for you is true
In everything I do, my love for you is true
My love for you is true, my love for you is true
In everything I do, my love for you is true
I stand here with my pride, keep my head up high
I’ll ask you to be my wife, I’ll offer you my life
My love for you is true, my love for you is true
In everything I do, my love for you is true

I’ve seen the Devil, walking hand in hand
Lord have mercy, save me from this hell
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
There is something in his eyes that says
There is something in his eyes that says
Please scare this demon away
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
I’m all struck down, I’m loosing my faith
I’m all struck down, I lost my faith
Felt the ground fall from below my feet
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
(x)
I’ve been to many places and I cannot tell
I’ve been to many places and I cannot tell
Left Vicksburg, Mississippi one day to soon
I’ve seen the Devil, walking hand in hand
I’ve seen the Devil, walking hand in hand
Lord have mercy, save me from this hell
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
There is something in his eyes that says
There is something in his eyes that says
Please scare this demon away
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
I’m all struck down, I’m loosing my faith
I’m all struck down, I lost my faith
Felt the ground fall from below my feet
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay awake, oh Lord,
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
Last night I lay away, chilled to the core
Let the Ghost of the Mississippi river haunt me
2Hold Back Time (lyrics)I’ve been to many places and I cannot tell

I am out here on my own again
Waiting by track number nine
See the last train go into the night
There is nobody left to see my pain
Only the first moonshine
Feel the cold wind freezes my sight
Come let the train slow down
Let you step on down
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
Every day I can see the stars
Most of the times it makes me weep
Cuz I see your ways slip into mine
Every night I must fight my wars
The scars and pain cut to deep
While your last goodbye echoes my mind
Come let the train slow down
Let you step on down
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
Out on this lost railway
I’ll wait each and every day
Till you come home to stay
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
Come let the train slow down
Let you step on down
Into these arms of mine
Let me hold back time
I am out here on my own again
Older than ever before
Take the last train off into the night
Into the night, into the night
Into the night
(x)
I am out here on my own again
Waiting by track number nine
See the last train go into the night
There is nobody left to see my pain

Older than ever before
Take the last train off into the night
Into the night, into the night
Into the night
I’m going back to my hometown,
Back to the banks and parks I used to know
I’ve crossed the dirt road, down to town
I left the neon signs far behind
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
I’m going back again
Out in the city of endless streetlights,
Drummed in the crowd no place left to go
It overcome me wishing to be back home again
Whenever I feel the stars don’t shine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
I’m going back again
When the thriving heart of my soul,
Whenever it needs a shelter of this storm
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
On my home ground, I feel fine
I’m going back again
Going back again,
Going back again
(x)

My love for you is strong, it keeps me going on
As you stumble as you fall, I’d come each time you call
My love for you is true, my love for you is true
In everything I do, my love for you is true
And when the morning comes, I’m feeling one foot small
As I lie in your perfect arms, you vex me with your charms
My love for you is true, my love for you is true
In everything I do, my love for you is true
I stand here with my pride, keep my head up high
I’ll ask you to be my wife, I’ll offer you my life
My love for you is true, my love for you is true
In everything I do, my love for you is true
My love for you is true, my love for you is true
In everything I do, my love for you is true
I stand here with my pride, keep my head up high
I’ll ask you to be my wife, I’ll offer you my life
My love for you is true, my love for you is true
In everything I do, my love for you is true

3Ramblin' Man (lyrics)
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
I’m heading out on the ramblin’ road
I’m holding on to my childish dreams
Never knew about the western sea
But it was all made clear to me
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
When miles of road just pass me by
I think about home every time
And Jack, you showed me long ago
The reason how to play
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
Busted home at age thirteen
To chase around some old dream
I headed out to Woodstock ville
Found the words to write this song
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
Often pray that time stood still
Hope to see you one more time
If there’s something like a musical dad
I know it would be Rambling Jack
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
(x)
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
I’m heading out on the ramblin’ road
I’m holding on to my childish dreams
Never knew about the western sea
But it was all made clear to me
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
When miles of road just pass me by
I think about home every time
And Jack, you showed me long ago
The reason how to play
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
Busted home at age thirteen
To chase around some old dream
I headed out to Woodstock ville
Found the words to write this song
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man

Hope to see you one more time
If there’s something like a musical dad
I know it would be Rambling Jack
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
In the trail of the ramblin’ man
The trail of the ramblin’ man
Hit the road and take your chances
Every boy must have his goal
Standing high upon the table
With my dreams of rock n roll
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Up these stairs
Headed for another hundred miles
With the rhythm of your radio
See the spotlights turn a fire
Different state and a brand new show
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Up these stairs
Bridge
instrumentaal
Every night when I’m all alone
Nobody here to see my game
Standing high upon the table
Let me dream of rock and roll fame
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Even now, I’m climbing higher
Up these stairs, up these stairs, up these stairs
Up these stairs, up these stairs, up these stairs
