One, Two, Three
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was taken by surprise
When I was just a kid
Watching the approach of the nights
Expecting nothing to come of it
Life at Springfield, Massachusetts
Like water it used to flow
One morning the rhythm was set
As I turned on the radio
They called it rock and roll
It got right to my soul
But I never knew why
Except it was my life
All you know is that its got you
It went 1,2,3
Pretty mama
4,5,6
I miss you
7,8,9
Cannot get enough
10,11,12
I ain't got the blues
One, two, three
Come on baby
Four, five, six
A kiss
Seven, eight, nine
You're on my mind,
Ten, eleven, twelve
Tell me when
There are some folks who'd go crazy
To get power and more money
We've each got our own way of selling our soul
We pity them for the ignorance of it all
Whenever I hear the first bar of "Hey Joe"
I get hit deep down, more than any words I know
To put me in the same humor
It only takes the voice of Aretha
It wasn't just simple music
A language, a communion
A secular religion
It was our way of refusing
We had long hair down to our waist
We worshipped the same idols in the same place
We were heading in the same direction
The end of the rainbow, but in unison
