THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME |
ROCK AND ROLL
Jimmy Page / Robert Plant / John Paul Jones / John Bonham
| O.k. [ Let's go! ] Oooh yeah, it's been a long time since I rock an' rolled. It's been a long time since I did the stroll. Ooh baby, let me get it back, let me get back, let me get back, Baby where I come from. It's been a long time, been a long time, Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Yes it has. It's been quite a while since we walked in the moonlight, A-makin' vows that just wouldn't work right. Ooh baby, open your arms, open your arms, open your arms, Baby let my love come runnin' in. It's been a long time, been a long time, Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Rock it! It's been quite a while since the book of love. I can't stand the tears of a life with no love. Ooh baby, carry me back, carry me back, carry me back Baby where I come from. It's been a long time, been a long time, Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Sure has. Ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah. Ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah. Ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah. Ahh rock it! Rock it! Ooh-yeah, ah~ooh-yeah. Ooh-yeah, ah~ooh-yeah. It's been a long time, been a long time, A-lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. |
CELEBRATION DAY
Jimmy Page / Robert Plant / John Paul Jones
| Her face is cracked from smilin', All the tears that she's been hidin' And she wonders pretty soon Everybody's gonna know. And her voice is sore from shoutin', Cheerin' winners who are losin' And she wonders if their days are few An' soon they'll have to go. My, my, my, I'm so happy, I'm gonna join the band. An' we're gonna sing an' dance in celebration. A-we're in the promised land. She hears them talk of new ways To protect the home she lives in She wonders what it's all about When they break down the door. Her name is Brown or White or Black, You know her very well. Ya hear her cries of mercy As the winners toll the bell. My, my, I'm so happy, I'm gonna join the band. An' we're gonna dance an' sing in celebration. A-we're in the promised land. There's a train that leaves the station, Headin' for your destination, But the price ya pay to nowhere Has increased a dollar more. And if ya walk you're gonna get there Although it takes a little longer An' when ya see it in the distance You will wring your hands an' moan. Ohh yeah a-you will moan, a-you will moan, a-you'll kneel an' moan. Ohhh yeah! It's alright! Good evenin'! |

RAIN SONG
Jimmy Page / Robert Plant
| It is the springtime of my lovin' The second season I am to know You are the sunlight in my growin' So little warmth I felt before.

They're wearin' steel that's bright an' true oh, oh-hoh-hoh, To build a dream for me an' you ah-hah~ah, They choose the path where no-one goe__s. They hold no quarter, oh hoh, They ask, they ask no quarter, no quarter oh. Walkin' side by side with death The devil mocks their every step The snow drives back the foot that's slow The dogs of doom are howlin' more more more more more... They carry news that must get through To build a dream for me an' you ahh yes they do, A-they choose the path where no-one goe__s. They hold no quarter, They ask, ask, they ask, ask, they ask, ask, they ask ask no quarter. ...arter. Oh what misery without quarter. Oh the pain, the pain without quarter. Oh-oh-oh.

STAIRWAY TO
HEAVEN
Jimmy Page / Robert Plant
| This's a song of hope... There's a lady who's sure All that glitters is gold And she's buying a stairway to heaven. An' when she gets there she knows If the stores are all closed With a word she can get what she came for. Ooh~ooh~ooh ooh~ooh~ooh~ooh~ooh. And she's buying a stairway to heaven. There's a sign on the wall But she wants to be sure 'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings. In a tree by the brook There's a songbird that sings Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven. An' I think you can see that. Ohh. And it makes me wonder, sure does. Oh hoh-hoh, hoh~ooh-oh~ooh~oh~ooh yes sir. There's a feelin' I get When I look to the west And my spirit is crying for leaving. In my thoughts I have seen Rings of smoke through the trees And the voices of those who stand looking. Ah-hah. Ah-hah. Ah-hah. Ah-hah. Ahhh~ahh~oh~ooh~oh~ooh ~oh~ooh~oh~ooh ~oh~ooh~oh~ooh~oh~oh~oh. And it's whispered that soon If we all call the tune A-then the piper will lead us to reason. And a new day will dawn For those who stand long And the forests will echo with laughter. Does anybody remember laughter? Baby, oh yes! Just give it to me, give it to me, give it to me. Sure does, sure does. But I got some good news, listen... If there's a bustle in your hedgerow Don't be alarmed now It's just a spring clean for the May queen. Yes, there are two paths you can go by, But in the long run And there's still time to change the road you're on. I hope so. Ooh. Ahh baby make ya, don't it make ya, don't it make ya, don't it make ya, don't it make ya. A-wait a minute, a-wait a minute. Your head is hummin' and it won't go In case ya don't know, The piper's callin' you to join him, Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow And did you know Your stairway lies on the whisperin' wind? Ahh-hah-hah~ahhh. And as we wind on down the road Our shadow's taller than our soul. There walks a lady we all kno__w Who shines white light and wants to show How everything still turns to gold yeah And if-a you listen very hard The tune will come to you at last. When all is one and one is all To be a rock and not to roll, not to roll. Don't make me roll. An' she's buying a stairway to heaven. Ah~ahhh~oh~ah~oh. |
