LETRA DE CANCIONES:
CANCION; Blood Of The Sun letras
Artista: Mountain
Standin' on my pillow
Talkin' to the moon
Wadin' in the ocean
I'm sendin' for you soon
Reachin' for the handle
Achin' in my head
Woven in the bedsheets
And then I will understand
Yeah!
Sun comes over the city
Time goes in its hand
Politicians are screamin'
There's a time and a little to spare
Leanin' out of the window
Runnin' from the gun
Caught in webs of invention
It's the blood, it's the blood of the sun
Hidin' in the ocean
With the sunshine at my side
To leave the hard road behind me
There's a light on the road that I ride
Thunder down in the valley
Rainbow 'round the moon
To leave the city behind me
I'm sendin' for you soon
Yeah, I'm sendin' for you soon
CANCION; For Yasgur's Farm letras
Artista: Mountain
composers: Gardos, Laing, Pappalardi-Collins
1) Who am I but you and the sun?
A slight reflection of everyone.
Was it me, who let you walk away?
Were you the one, or is it, we're the sa-a-ame?
2) What of we in time, going by-y-y?
The simple story, of every life.
Half in dreams, and somehow through the day,
We haven't, come so far, to lose our way-y-y.
> Look at me, I believe it's true,
You're a par-art of me, I'm a part of you-o-o.
3) Love is only what we come to live,
The waking, breathing in all we give.
A crystal passing, reflected in our eyes,
Eclipsing all, the jealousy, and li-i-ies.
> Look at me, can't you see it's true,
You're a par-art of me, I'm a part of you-o-o.
-- Guitar Lead -- (over Verse & Chorus)
4) Poignant as, the voices, in a dream,
Without you shadow, the things I've seen.
That early eve-nin', I let you walk away,
Were you the one, or is it, we're the sa-a-ame?
> Look at me, I believe it's true,
You're a par-art of me, I'm a part of you-o-o.
---- End Lead –
CANCION; Mississippi Queen letras
Artista: Mountain
composers: West, Laing, Pappalardi
Mississippi Queen, you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, she taught me everything
Way down around Vicksburg, around Louisiana way
Lived a Cajun lady, called the Mississippi Queen
You know she was a dancer, she moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes was gettinâ their kicks
Go anâ get your partner now Iâ m gettinâ mine
Mississippi Queen, if you know what I mean
Mississippi Queen, she taught me everything
This lady she asked me, if I would be her man
You know that I told her, I'd do what I can
To keep her lookin’ pretty, buy her dresses that shine
While the of rest of them dudes was makinâ their bread
Go an’ get your partner now I’m losinâ mine
----- Guitar Lead -----
You know she was a dancer, she moved better on wine
While the rest of them dudes was gettin’ their kicks
Go an’ get your partner now Iâ m gettinâ mine
Ohhhhh Mississippi Queen

CANCION; Don't Look Around letras
Artista: Mountain
composers: West, Palmer, Pappalardi-Collins
Don't look around 'cause I'm never comin' back.
High time, you saw the last of me.
You know I was a wand'rer, I'd forgotten where to go,
I had no place to lay my head or rest my heavy load.
Don't look around 'cause I'm never comin' back.
High time, you saw the last of me.
Lord, how she changed my mind.
Lord she changed my life.
Now I'm workin' all day long, singin' for my food,
Baby, you know that I've got everything I need.
I've given all I can, the rest belongs to me,
Time was it didn't matter just who I had to be.
Don't look around 'cause I'm never comin' back.
High time, you saw the last of me.
Lord, how she changed my mind.
Lord, she changed my life.
--- Guitar Lead ---
I got another woman now, don't need you anymore.
Now I think I'll turn my back an' walk away from you.
We're livin' in the country doin' everything we please,
I don't want you comin' 'round, stir-rin' up a breeze.
Don't look around 'cause I'm never comin' back.
High time, you saw the last of me.
Lord, how she changed my mind.
Lord, she changed my life.
