JIMI HENDRIX - Straight Ahead lyrics

rate me

Hello, my friend <br />

So happy to see you again <br />

I was so alone <br />

All by my self <br />

I just couldn't make it <br />

<br />

Have you heard, baby <br />

What the winds blowing round <br />

Have you heard, baby <br />

A whole lot of peoples coming right on down <br />

<br />

Communication, yeah <br />

Is coming on strong <br />

And don't give a damn, baby <br />

If your hair is short or long, huh <br />

<br />

I said, get out of your grave <br />

Everybody is dancing in the street <br />

Do what you know, don't be slow <br />

You gotta practice what you preach <br />

'Cause it's time for you and me <br />

Come to face reality (it sounds like he says "fake reality")<br />

<br />

Forget about the past, baby <br />

Things ain't what they used to be <br />

Keep on Straight Ahead <br />

Keep on straight Ahead <br />

<br />

Straight Ahead, baby <br />

Straight Ahead, baby <br />

<br />

We got to stand side by side <br />

We got to stand together and organize <br />

They say power to the people, <br />

That's what they're screamin' <br />

Freedom of the soul <br />

Pass it on, pass it on to the young and old <br />

<br />

You got to tell the children the truth <br />

They don't need a whole lot of lies <br />

Because one of these days, baby <br />

They'll be running things <br />

So when you give them love <br />

You better give it right <br />

Woman and child and man and wife <br />

The best love to have is the Love Of Life <br />

<br />

Pushing on Straight Ahead <br />

Straight Ahead, baby <br />

<br />

Hello my friend <br />

It's so good to see you again <br />

And I've been all by my self <br />

I don't think I can make it alone <br />

I gotta keep on pushing ahead
