Raspberry BeretWritten by Prince
I was working part time in the five and dime My boss was Mr. McGee, he told me several times That he didn't like my kind 'Cause I was a bit too leisurely I was always busy doing something close to nothing Different then the time before That's when I saw her, oh, I saw her She walked in through the out door, out door She wore a raspberry beret The kind you find in a second hand store Raspberry beret When it was warm she didn't wear much more Raspberry beret, I think I love her Built the way she was, she had the nerve to ask me If I meant to do her any harm So I put her on the back of my bike and we went riding Down by old man Johnson's farm Now rainy days never turned me on But something about the way, the clouds and her mixed She wasn't too bright to know the way she kissed me I knew she knew how to get her kicks She wore a raspberry beret The kind you find in a second hand store Raspberry beret When it was warm she didn't wear much more Raspberry beret, I think I love her She wore a raspberry beret The kind you find in a second hand store Raspberry beret When it was warm she didn't wear much more Raspberry beret, I think I love her She wore a raspberry beret The kind you find in a second hand store Raspberry beret When it was warm she didn't wear much more Raspberry beret, I think I love her the hindu love gods are (this time): Warren Zevon, Bill Berry, Peter Buck, Mike Mills Warren: Peter Buck, Mike Mills, Bill Berry and I recorded some blues songs and covers sub rosa at their last session in L.A. for Sentimental Hygiene.

Vigilante ManWritten by Woody Guthrie
Have you seen that vigilante man? Have you seen that vigilante man? Have you seen that vigilante man? I keep hearin' his name All over this land We were hiding at the engine house We were hiding quiet as a mouse When a man came along And he chased us out in the rain Was that a vigilante man? Have you seen that vigilante man? Have you seen that vigilante man? Have you seen that vigilante man? I keep hearin' his name All over this land Why would a vigilante man Why would a vililante man Why with a sawed-off shotgun in his hand Would he shoot his brother and sister down? Have you seen that vigilante man? Have you seen that vigilante man? Have you seen that vigilante man? I keep hearin' his name All over this land the hindu love gods are (this time): Warren Zevon, Bill Berry, Peter Buck, Mike Mills |
