Letras de John Fogerty de A a H

A HUNDRED AND TEN IN THE SHADE (John Fogerty)

Way out here in the cotton

Sun beatin´ down so hard

Sweat  rollin´ off this shovel

Diggin´ in the devil´s boneyard

Sure like a cool drink of water

Soft rag to soothe my face

Sure like a woman to talk to in this place

CORO

It´s a hundred and ten

Hundred and ten in the shade

Goin´ way down

Mama won´t you carry me

Handle so hot I can´t stand it

Might shrivel up and blow away

Noonday sun make you crazy

Least, that´s what the old men say

Bottom land hard as a gravestone

Couldn´t cut it with an axe

Gonna lay me down right here

And that´s  a fact

CORO

Sometimes late in the evenin´

Everything is quiet and still

I set here and think about leavin´

Lord, I guess I never will

Heartache down in that city

Bright light scares me anyway

Sure like a woman to talk to in this place

CORO

ALL MAMA’S CHILDREN

There was an old woman that lived in a shoe, she had so many children,
she didn't know what to do.
They were doin' alright til she took 'em to town,
The kids start pickin' em up and puttin' em down.
All your children wanna rock, mamma, all your children wanna roll.
They wanna roll wanna rock wanna bop til they pop.
All your children wanna rock.
We're not tryin' to live too fast. We might as well try to live in class.
Better move out before the rent comes due. 
I wouldn’t wanna live in a blue suede shoe.
All your children wanna rock mamma, all your children wanna rock.
We're gonna roll gonna rock, gonna bop til we pop. All your children wanna rock.
Every night when it's quiet and still, you can hear it echo to the hill,
Through a blue suede shoe on a mountain top,
All mama's children are doin' the bop.
All your children  wanna rock, mamma, and all your children wanna roll.
We're gonna roll gonna rock gonna bop til we pop. 
All your children wanna rock.
Well all your children wanna rock, mamma, all your children wanna roll.
We're gonna roll, gonna rock,  gonna bop til we pop. All your children wanna rock!

ALMOST SATURDAY NIGHT (J.C. Fogerty)

Outside my window, I can hear the radio,
And I know that motor wagon is ready to fly,
'Cause it's almost Saturday night.

Bye bye, tomorrow, Jody's gone to the rodeo,
And you know some good old boys are ready to ride,
'Cause it's almost Saturday night.

CORO:

Gonna push the clouds away, let the music have it's way,
Let it steal my heart away, and you know I'm-a-goin'!

Outside the ringing, the night train is bringin' me home,
When you hear that locomotion get ready to ride,
'Cause it's almost Saturday night.

CORO:

Outside the ringing, the night train is bringin' me home,
When you hear that locomotion get ready to ride,
'Cause it's almost Saturday night.
Oh yeah!

BACK IN THE HILLS (J.C. Fogerty)

This old push-and-shovin' city life, Lord, had really got me down.
I'm goin' back and leaving here tonight, get my feet on the ground.

CORO:
I'm goin back (Back to the hills), I'm goin back (Back to the hills),
Goin' back (Back to the hills) Tonight (Back to the hills).
I'm goin back (Back to the hills), I'm goin back (Back to the hills),
Goin' back (Back to the hills) Tonight (Back to the hills).

My time is done for livin' on the run, and the money making schemes,
Feelin' success and takin' all the rest, empty hearts and shattered dreams.

CORO:
Oo-oo-oooh!
Oo-oo-oooh!

Back (I'm goin' back to the), Back (I'm goin' back to the),
Back (I'm goin' back to the), Tonight! (I'm goin' back to the)
Back (I'm goin' back to the), Back (I'm goin' back to the),
Back (I'm goin' back to the), Tonight! (I'm goin' back to the)

CHORUS

Tell your Pa I'm gonna leave it all, he won't be seeing me around,
And if you like, just come along tonight, get your feet on the ground.

CORO:

I'm goin' back! (I'm goin' back to the)... etc.

BAD BAD BOY (John Fogerty)

Bad bad boy

You´re drivin´ me crazy

Bad bad boy

Shame on you

Shame on you

Where you been all night

Messin´ with your friends

You act so mean

And you talk so funny

There you go again

Bad bad boy

You won´t amount to nothin´

Bad bad boy

Shame on you

Shame on you

CORO:

Where you been

What you been doin´

Where you been

What you been doin´

Bad bad boy

Bad bad boy

Can´t you be more like your brother

Bad bad boy

Shame on you

Shame on you

CORO

BETWEEN THE LINES (J.C. Fogerty)

Between the lines, that's wond'rin' what to say, when you ain't sayin' nothin',
Between the lines, that's thinkin' about the silence that hides behind your smile,
Between the lines, that's walkin' on eggshells that whisper keep your footing,
Between the lines, that's watchin' what you're doin', pretendin' to be blind.

The truth is just a shadow, you can never pin it down,
And the words are always hollow, never yes or no, they're in the middle ground.

CORO:
Between the lines! Between the lines!
Between the lines! Between the lines!
Between the lines. Between the lines.

Between the lines, that's tryin' to guess the meanin', when there ain't none to begin with,
Between the lines, that's waitin' for the warlord to drop the other shoe,
Between the lines, that's wond'rin' why the answer is just another question,
Between the lines, that's thinkin' about the shotgun that's lookin' straight at you.

I was just a shadow, and I never made a sound.
But how can you be livin', when you're just standin' there on the middle ground.

CORO

Between the lines! Between the lines!
Between the lines! Between the lines!
Between the lines! Between the lines!
Between the lines! Between the lines!

Between the lines.

BIG TRAIN (FROM MEMPHIS) (J.C. Fogerty)

When I was young, I spent my summer days playin' on the track.
The sound of the wheels rollin' on the steel took me out, took me back.

CORO:
Big Train from Memphis, Big Train from Memphis,
Now it's gone gone gone, gone gone gone.

Like no one before, he let out a roar, and I just had to tag along.
Each night I went to bed with the sound in my head, and the dream was a song.

CORO

Well I've rode 'em in and back out again - you know what they say about trains;
But I'm tellin' you when that Memphis train came through,
This ol' world was not the same.

CORO

BLUEBOY (John Fogerty)

Way back in the hills

There´s a place I know

People come from miles around

Just to watch ´Ol dooley do the show

CORO

Ooh let the blueboy play

Ooh let the blueboy play

Gonna ride the mule

Gonna chase him too

Pullin´ on-a pullin´ on-a

Pullin´ on-a pony

He goes…

Soon´s the sun go down

That´s when the fun begins

Hitch your wagon down the track

Up to the roadhouse

And come on in

CORO

Sheriff says it late

Closin´ time we got to go

But dooley he don´t want to quit

Ain´t nobody feels like goin´ home

CORO

BLUE MOON NIGHTS (John Fogerty)

Help me fellas

I´m feelin´ kind-a weak

The way I´m livin´ just ain´t right

I need somebody T´ watch over me

All my blue moon nights

I want a girl to take me by the hand

Pollow me right down the line

Hold me gently while we dance

All my blue moon nights

CORO:

Heaven only knows I don´t want to be

Just a fool passin´ through

Won´t you send an angel to walk with me

All my blue moon nights

Help me fellas

It´s gettin´ kind-a late

Runnin´ out of precious time

She might pass me while I wast

All my blue moon nights

CORO

BLUE MOON OF KENTUCKY (Bill Monroe)

Blue moon of Kentuky keep on shinin´

Shine on the one that´s gone and been untrue

Blue moon of Kentuky keep on shinin´

Shine on the one that´s gone and left me blue

It was on a moonlight night stars were shinin´ bright

They whispered on high your lover said goodbye

Blue moon of Kentuky keep on shinin´

Shine on the one that´s gone and said goodbye

Blue moon of Kentuky keep on shinin´

Shine on the one that´s gone and been untrue

Blue moon of Kentuky keep on shinin´

Shine on the one that´s gone and left me blue

It was on a moonlight night stars were shinin´ bright

They whispered on high your lover said goodbye

Blue moon of Kentuky keep on shinin´

Shine on the one that´s gone and said goodbye

Shine on the one that´s gone and said goodbye.

BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAIN BLUES (Traditional - Arrangement by J.C. Fogerty)

When I was young and in my prime (in my prime!),
I left my home in Caroline.
Now all I do is sit and pine, for all those folks I left behind.

I got the Blue Ridge mountain blues, and I sat right here to say,
"My grip is packed to travel, and I'm back to ramble,
To my Blue Ridge far away."

I'm goin' to stay right by my Pa, I'm goin' to do right by my Ma,
I'll hang around the cabin door, no work or worry anymore.

I got the Blue Ridge mountain blues, goin' to see my old oak tree,
Gonna hunt the possum where the corn cob blossom,
In my Blue Ridge far away.
Woo!

I see a haze of snowy white, I see a window with light,
I seem to hear them both sigh, "Where is my wand'rin boy tonight?"

I got the Blue Ridge mountain blues, and I stay right here to say,
"Every day I'm countin' 'til I climb that mountain,
In my Blue Ridge far away."

BRING IT DOWN TO JELLY ROLL (John Fogerty)

Well, if you want

To ease your mind

You just go on

Take it to the river

When you´re down

Well, that´s alright

You just bring it down to jelly roll

We´re gonna run

A-jump and shout

We´re gonna slide

Way back in the country

There´s a place

Where they treat you right

You just bring it down to jelly roll

The little girls

Way down south

They got their way

Honey drippin´ from their mouth

If you ever get some luck

You better bring it down to jelli roll

Now look at me

Lord, I ain`t got a dime

But I can dance

Lord, I´m jumping all the time

I live honey, straight to the bone

I just bring it down to jelly roll

Well, if you want

To ease your mind

You just go on

Take it to the river

When you´re down

Well, that´s alright

You just bring it down to jelly roll

BROKEN DOWN COWBOY (John Fogerty)
If I was a gambling man
never would’a let you play your hand
with a broken down cowboy like me
‘cause you never can trust your luck
he’s bad news in a pick-up truck
this broken down cowboy like me
he’s played every card he’s got
had a good hand but he messed it up
with that bum-around tumble-down heart
saddlebags full of pain
carry’s ‘em around just like a middle name
a losin’ streak waintin’ for dark
CORO

oh he’ll string you along
sing you a lonesome song
but he’ll wind up alone….again
no matter how hard you try
never gonna let you get inside
that tumble-down broken down heart
it’s a tough ridin’ rodeo
A mean horse threw him long time ago
a broken down cowboy like me
but the way I feel about you
wouldn’t want that horse to hurt you too
a broken down cowboy like me
oh he’ll string you along
sing you a lonesome song
but he’ll wind up alone….again
if I was a gambling man
never would’a let you play that hand
with a broken down cowboy like me

CALIFORNIA BLUES (BLUE YODEL #4) (Jimmie Rodgers)

I'm goin' to California, where they sleep out every night, yeah.
I'm goin' to California, where they sleep out every night, yeah.
I'm leavin' you, Mama, 'cause you know you don't treat me right.

Let me tell you somethin', Mama that you don't know,
Let me tell you somethin', good gal that you don't know,
Yeah, I'm a do-right Papa, and got a home everywhere I go.

I got the California blues, and I'm sure gonna leave here, Lord, Lord.
I got the California blues, and I'm sure gonna leave you here,
I may rob you blind, I ain't got not railroad fare.
Come on in here.

Listen to me, Mama, while I sing this song, Lord.
Listen to your Daddy sing you this lonesome song.
You got me worried now, but I won't be worried long.

I got the California blues, and I'm sure gonna leave here, hey, hey, hey.
I got the California blues, and I'm sure gonna leave you here,
I may rob you blind, I ain't got not railroad fare.
Honey, get over here.

CENTERFIELD (J.C. Fogerty)

Well, beat the drum and hold the phone - the sun came out today!
We're born again, there's new grass on the field.
A-roundin' third, and headed for home, it's a brown-eyed handsome man;
Anyone can understand the way I feel.

CORO:
Oh, put me in, Coach - I'm ready to play today;
Put me in, Coach - I'm ready to play today;
Look at me, I can be Centerfield.

Well, I spent some time in the Mudville Nine, watchin' it from the bench;
You know I took some lumps when the Mighty Casey struck out.
So Say Hey Willie, tell Ty Cobb and Joe DiMaggio;
Don't say "it ain't so", you know the time is now.

CORO

Yeah! I got it, I got it!

Got a beat-up glove, a homemade bat, and brand-new pair of shoes;
You know I think it's time to give this game a ride.
Just to hit the ball and touch 'em all - a moment in the sun;
(pop) It's gone and you can tell that one goodbye!

CORO
CORO
Yeah!

CHANGE IN THE WEATHER (J.C. Fogerty)

Aaah!
CORO:
Change in the weather, change in the weather,
Somethin's happenin' here.
Change in the weather, change in the weather,
People walkin' round in fear.

Uh huh, you better duck and run,
Get under cover 'cause the change has come.
Storm warning, and it looks like rain,
Be nothin' left after the hurricance.
This here's a jungle, ain't no lie,
Look at the people, terror in their eyes.
Bad business comin', can't be denied,
They're running with the dogs, afraid to die.

CORO

Uh huh, you best believe it's true,
The levee's busted, badness comin' through.
Oh no, there ain't no place to hide,
Reach out and pluck you, take you for a ride.
Sea of frustration, take everything in sight,
Won't be no blessing if we make it through the night.
Down on your knees, go ahead and pray,
But every demon has to have his day.

CORO

Well! Oh, God!

High noon, I can't believe my eyes,
Wind is ragin', there's a fire in the sky.
Ground shakin', everything comin' loose,
Run like a coward but it ain't no use.
Edge of the river, it's an ugly scene,
People gettin' pushed, people gettin' mean.
The change is comin' and it's gettin' late,
Ain't no survivin', and there ain't no escape.

CORO
Oh!
CORO
Well! Oh, no!

COMIN' DOWN THE ROAD (J.C. Fogerty)

Yeah! Yeah!
It happened just this mornin', you know I woke up feelin' so good,
The sun came over the mountain, just like I always knew it would.
Had another dream about music, you know the kind that they used to play,
There was everyone that I love to hear, marchin' to their own parade.

CORO:
And they were comin' down the road, playin' that rock n' roll,
And dontcha feel good 'cause they're comin' down the road.

Saw that Orpheum Theatre, I heard a thousand screamin' guitars,
There was a greasy-haired boy with a wiggle, they thought he was a man from Mars,
Rollin' along with the Fat Man, a piece of country-fried blueberry pie,
I said to myself "Let me hear it on the hill, just one time, one time before I die."

CORO
Yeah!

CORO

CREEDENCE SONG (John Fogerty)
Daddy had a band playin’ him a little guitar
Travelled in a van livin’ that rock & roll
Night after night people coming up to the bandstand
Say you can’t go wrong
If you play a little bit of that Creedence Song
It was late one night
Cruising on down the interstate
Stopped into a diner
To get him some chilli and fries
Heard the waitress tell a guy
Standing over by the jukebox
Hey you can’t go wrong
If you play a little bit of that Creedence Song
Do do, do do, do do,
(instumental)
Well daddy took a shine
To the Lill’ girl behind the counter
She was moving her hips
To the swamp beat right on time
Said could he play her somethin’
Over there on the jukebox
She said you can’t go wrong
If you play a little bit of that Creedence Song
Daddy had a plan he asked that girl to marry
With a brand new wife
They’re living on rock & roll
Night after night
She whispers oh so sweetly
Hey you can’t go wrong
If you play a little bit of that Creedence Song
Ya you can’t go wrong
If you play a little bit of that Creedence Song
Do do, do do, do do,
Well..........
 

DAYS GO BY (Keith Urban)

I'm changing lanes
I'm talking on the phone
I'm drivin' way to fast
And the interstate's jammed with
Gunners like me afraid of coming in last
But somewhere in the race we run
We're coming undone
Days go by
I can feel 'em flying
Like a hand out the window in the wind as the cars go by
It's all we've been given
So you better start livin' right now
'Cause days go by
Out on the roof just the other night
I watched the world flash by
Headlights, taillights running through a river of neon signs
But somewhere in the rush I felt
We're losing ourselves
Days go by
I can feel 'em flying
Like a hand out the window in the wind as the cars go by
It's all we've been given
So you better start livin' right now
'Cause days go by
We think about tomorrow then it slips away
We talk about forever but we've only got today
And the days go by
I can feel 'em flying
Like a hand out the window
As the cars go by
It's all we've been given
So you better start livin'
You better start livin'
Better start livin' right now
Cause days go by
I can feel like 'em flying
Like a hand out the window in the wind as the cars go by
It's all we've been given
So you better start livin' right now
Cause days go by
These days go by
So take 'em by the hand
They're yours and mine
Take 'em by the hand
And live your life
Take 'em by the hand
Don't let 'em all fly by
Come on, Come on now
Don't you know the days go by

DEJA VU (ALL OVER AGAIN) (J. C. Fogerty)
Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio
Did you try to read the writing on the wall
Did that voice inside you say I've heard it all before
It's like Deja Vu all over again

Day by day I hear the voices rising
Started with a whisper like it did before
Day by day we count the dead and dying
Ship the bodies home while the networks all keep score

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio
Could your eyes believe the writing on the wall
Did that voice inside you say I've heard it all before
It's like Deja Vu all over again

One by one I see the old ghosts rising
Stumblin' 'cross Big Muddy
Where the light gets dim
Day after day another Momma's crying
She's lost her precious child
To a war that has no end

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio
Did you stop to read the writing at The Wall
Did that voice inside you say
I've seen this all before
It's like Deja Vu all over again
It's like Deja Vu all over again

DIGGY LIGGY LO
C'est ma sœur, Diggy Liggy La.
Elle s'est marié avec Diggy Liggy Lo
Pour rester dans le village
Diggy Liggy La et Diggy Liggy Lo.

Diggy Liggy Lo, 'trappe Po Po.
Diggy Liggy La monte dessus la plombeau
Pour s'en va tout par tout
Diggy Liggy La et Diggy Liggy Lo.

DON'T YOU WISH IT WAS TRUE (John Fogerty)
I dreamed I walked in heaven
Just the other night
There was so much beauty
So much light
Don’t you wish it was true
Don’t you wish it was true
An Angel took my hand
Said you don’t have to hurry
Got All the time in the world Don’t worry
Don’t you wish it was true
Lord, Don’t you wish it was true
What if tomorrow everybody was your friend
Anyone could take you in
No matter what or where you been
What if tomorrow everybody had enough
The world wasn’t quit so rough,
Lord, Don’t you wish it was true
He said the world’s gonna change
And it’s startin’ today
There’ll be no more armies, no more hate
Don’t you wish it was true,
Lord, Don’t you wish it was true
And all the little children
Will live happily
There’ll be singing and laughter
Sweet harmony
Don’t you wish it was true
Lord, Don’t you wish it was true
Chorus two
But if tomorrow everybody under the sun
Was happy just to live as one
No borders or battles to be won
But if tomorrow
Everybody was your friend
Happiness would never end
Lord, Don’t you wish it was true
Guitar break
But if tomorrow
Everybody under the sun
Was happy just to live as one
No borders or battles to be won
But if tomorrow
Everybody was your friend
Happiness would never end
Lord, Don’t you wish it was true
Lord, Don’t you wish it was true

DREAM-SONG (J.C. Fogerty)

Would you like to sail the sea, like a pirate, wild and free?
Cast your whole life upon the wind, well it's your song, and it's your dream.

Would you like, to turn the page; Fight the dragon, or find your maid,
Makin' merry at the village green, well it's your song, and it's your dream.

Would you like to lead the band, hittin' that old time sweet Dixieland,
And that side show go marchin' on, well it's your song, and it's your dream.

Would you like to be a song, like a river just rolls along,
Teach the whole world how to sing, well it's your song, and it's your dream.
It's your song, and it's your dream.

ENDLESS SLEEP

The night was black, rain fallin’ down,

look for my baby, she's nowhere around.
Traced her footsteps down to the shore, 'fraid she's gone forever more.
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say, I took your baby from you away.
I heard a voice cryin' in the deep,
Come join me baby in the endless sleep.
Why did we quarrel why did we fight?
Why did I leave her alone tonight?
That's why her footsteps came to the sea.
That's why my baby is gone from me.
Well I looked at the sea and it seemed to say,
I took your baby from you away.
I heard a voice cryin' in the deep,
Come join me baby in the endless sleep.
Ran in the water, heart full of fear,
There in the breakers I saw her near.
Reached for my darlin' held her to me,
Stold her away from the endless sea.
Well I looked at the sea and it seemed to say,
You took your baby from me away.
My heart cried out she's mine to keep.
I saved my baby from an endless sleep

I saved my baby from an endless sleep

EVIL THING (J.C. Fogerty)

You know I feel just like a prisoner,

the way your love has chained me down,

And It's so hard to make a move

when your evil thing is all around.

So I gave your letter to the mailman,

I turned your picture to the wall,
But still you have claimed me forever, and that's what scares me most of all!

CORO:
Ooh! You evil thing, why do you haunt me?
You evil thing, what good is love?

The other night, I had a feeling

there was somebody else in my room,
Now I don't know if I was dreamin', but I still get a chill from your perfume.
When my telephone rings, and there's no answer, and the wind comes knockin' at the door,
I can see things flashin' by the window, Lord I can't take it much more!

CORO
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

So I gave your letter to the mailman, I turned your picture to the wall,
But still you have claimed me forever, and that's what scares me most of all!

CORO (X4)

EYE OF THE ZOMBIE (J.C. Fogerty)

Hoo! Oooooh!

Shadows on the mountain, and the night begins to fall;
Gather up the children, 'fore the darkness takes us all.
Tribe has come together, standin' naked against the night;
Twenty feet from the fire, the evil waits with zombie eyes.

CORO:
Eye-eye-eye eye of the Zombie!
Eye-eye-eye eye of the Zombie!

Oh! Sneakin' through the long grass on leopard feet silently,
A beast already dead comes to join the dance on the zombie.
Ooh! Time has come again - again the moment of truth;
The terror is at hand, and there's nothin' you can do.

CORO

Oh! Hoo! Aaa-aah! Hoo! Aaa-aaa-aaaah!

From out of nowhere he's there, flashing hideous teeth,
Panic in the crowd, helter-skelter, we're brought to our knees.
Back to the darkness, back on the mountain he stands,
You can't fight a shadow, you can't kill a dead man.

CORO (X4)

FLYIN' AWAY (J.C. Fogerty)

Well I feel like flyin' away, 'cause more and more I'm just in the way, yeah.
Through the night, and far across the sky,
There's another light, you know I must fly.
Far, far away.

Well I feel it now, somehow in me, the power of flight should appear,
I hear a song callin' my name, And I might be wrong, but I'm goin' just the same.
Far, far away.

Well I feel like flyin' away, and walk on the clouds along the way.
Well don't be sad, it's gonna be alright, yeah.
And if you're strong, just come along tonight.
Far, far away; Far, far away.

GOIN' BACK HOME (J.C. Fogerty)

(Instrumental)

GUNSLINGER (John Fogerty)
Lookin’ out across this town
kinda makes me wonder how
all the things that made us great
got left so far behind
this used to be a peaceful place
decent folk’s hard working ways
now they hide behind locked doors
afraid to speak their mind
I think we need a gunslinger
somebody tough to tame this town
I think we need a gunslinger
There’ll be justice all around
somebody let the fences go
wild eyed bunch moved in you know
shootin’ up the streets shoutin’ everybody down
the dogs all runnin’ loose
wrecked the paper closed the school
tired old judge got roughed up too
no one left to make a stand
they whisper what’s the use
I think we need a gunslinger
somebody tough to tame this town
I think we need a gunslinger
There’ll be justice all around
I think we need a gunslinger
somebody tough to tame this town
I think we need a gunslinger
There’ll be justice all around
I think we need a gunslinger
somebody tough to tame this town
I think we need a gunslinger
There’ll be justice all around

HAVE THINE OWN WAY LORD (Stebbins/Pollard)

Have thine own way, Lord, have thine own way,
Thou art the potter, I am the clay,
Mold me and make me, fester thy will,
While I am waiting, gilded and still.

Have thine own way, Lord, have thine own way,
Search me and try me, master today,
Whiter than snow, Lord, push me just down,
As in thy presence humbly I bow.

Have thine own way, Lord, have thine own way,
Wounded and weary, help me I pray,
Power of power, surely is thine,
Touch me and heal me, saviour divine.
