Creedence Clearwater Revival - Long As I Can See The Light



Put a candle in the window
Got a feelin', got to move
Oh, I'm gone, gone
I'll be comin' home soon
Long as I can see the light

Pack my bag and let's get movin'
'Cause I'm bound to drift a while
When I'm gone, gone
You don't have to worry long
Long as I can see the light

Guess I've got that old travellin' bone
Got a feelin', won't leave me alone
But I won't, I won't be losin' my way, no, no
Long as I can see the light
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

Put a candle in the window
Got a feelin', got to move
Oh I'm gone, gone
I'll be comin' home soon
Long as I can see the light

Long as I can see the light
Long as I can see the light
Long as I can see the light

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Fortunate Son


Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Ooh, they're red, white and blue
And when the band plays "Hail To The Chief"
Oh, they point the cannon at you, Lord

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no senator's son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one, no

Some folks are born silver spoon in hand
Lord, don't they help themselves? Oh!
But when the taxman come to the door
Lord, the house look a like a rummage sale, yes

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no millionaire's son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one, no

Yeah, some folks inherit star spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war, Lord
And when you ask them, how much should we give?
Oh, they only answer, more, more, more! Yoh!

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no military son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one, no no no
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate son, no no no

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Bad Moon Rising


I see a bad moon rising,
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin',
I see bad times today

Don't go 'round tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise

I hear hurricanes a-blowing,
I know the end is coming soon,
I fear rivers overflowing,
I hear the voice of rage and ruin

Don't go 'round tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise

(Instrumental break)

Hope you got your things together,
Hope you are quite prepared to die,
Looks like we're in for nasty weather,
One eye is taken for an eye

Well, don't go 'round tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise

Don't go 'round tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise.

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Lookin' for a Reason


I'm lookin' for a reason to stay.
I'm all wound up and tied in knots today.
I'm lookin' for a reason not to go.
When the morning comes, I'll be on my way.

Ev'ry night I ask myself again
Just what it was that made our dream begin.
It seemed like a good idea way back then.
But I'm wond'rin' now what daydream took me in.

CHORUS

Yesterday I tried once more to find
A way to share the trouble on my mind.
It seems like you turn away ev'ry time.
I used to like it here, I can't remember why.

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Have You Ever Seen The Rain


Someone told me long ago:
There's a calm before the storm.
I know - It's been comin' for some time.
When it's over, so they say:
It'll rain a sunny day,
I know - Shinin' down like water.

I wanna know - have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know - have you ever seen the rain?
Comin' down on a sunny day?

Yesterday, and days before,
Sun is cold and rain is hard,
I know - been that way for all my time.
'Til forever, on it goes,
Through the circle, fast and slow,
I know - It can't stop, I wonder.

Chorus
