~ Grateful Dead - St. Stephen
Views: 105665 |  |  |  |  | Garcia,Lesh,Hunter Lyrics: Saint stephen with a rose, in and out of the garden he goes, Country garden in the wind and the rain, Wherever he goes the people all complain. Stephen prospered in his time, well he may and he may decline. Did it matter, does i ...More t now? stephen would answer if he only knew how. Wishing well with a golden bell, bucket hanging clear to hell, Hell halfway twixt now and then, Stephen fill it up and lower down and lower down again. Lady finger, dipped in moonlight, writing what for? across the morning sky. Sunlight splatters, dawn with answer, darkness shrugs and bids the day good-bye. Speeding arrow, sharp and narrow, What a lot of fleeting matters you have spurned. Several seasons with their treasons, Wrap the babe in scarlet colors, call it your own. Did he doubt or did he try? answers aplenty in the bye and bye, Talk about your plenty, talk about your ills, One man gathers what another man spills. Saint stephen will remain, all hes lost he shall regain, Seashore washed by the suds and foam, Been here so long, hes got to calling it home. Fortune comes a crawlin, calliope woman, spinnin that curious sense of your own. Can you answer? yes I can. but what would be the answer to the answer man? |

~ Grateful Dead - Rosemary
Views: 46476 |  |  |  |  | Garcia;Hunter Lyrics: Recorded on Aoxomoxoa. For a long time it was assumed it had never been been played live. But a tape of a performance on 7 December 1968 has recently come to light. Swath of heaven, a breath of cologne *her mirror* was a window she s ...More at quite alone All around her the garden grew Scarlet and purple and crimson and blue She came and she looked and at last went away The garden was sealed when the flowers decayed On the wall of the garden, a legend did say "No one may come here, since no one may stay" |

~ Grateful Dead - Friend of The Devil
Views: 392325 |  |  |  |  | Garcia,Dawson,Hunter Lyrics: I lit out from reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds Didnt get to sleep last night till the morning came around. Set out runnin but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight, I just ...More might get some sleep tonight. Ran into the devil, babe, he loaned me twenty bills I spent the night in utah in a cave up in the hills. Set out runnin but I take my time, a friend of the devil is a friend of mine, If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight. I ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there He took my twenty dollar bill and vanished in the air. Set out runnin but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight. Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night, The first ones named sweet anne marie, and shes my hearts delight. The second one is prison, babe, the sheriffs on my trail, And if he catches up with me, Ill spend my life in jail. Got a wife in chino, babe, and one in cherokee The first one says shes got my child, but it dont look like me. Set out runnin but I take my time, A friend of the devil is a friend of mine, If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight. |

This particular show was one of the highlights of my Dead touring days, easily one of the more inspired nights Jerry's final years in my opinion. Thank you Jerry for being here, although for not nearly long enough. |

There's laughing in her eyes, dancing in her feet, She's a neon-light diamond and she can live on the street. Hey hey, hey, come right away Come ...More and join the party every day. Well everybody's dancin' in a ring around the sun Nobody's finished, we ain't even begun. So take off your shoes, child, and take off your hat. Try on your wings and find out where it's at. Hey hey, hey, come right away Come and join the party every day. Take a vacation, fall out for a while, Summer's comin' in, and it's goin' outa style Well, lie down smokin', honey; have yourself a ball, Cause your mother's down in Memphis, won't be back 'till the fall. Hey hey, hey, come right away Come and join the party every day. |
