PAUL REVERE AND THE RAIDERS

Midnight Ride
(Paul Revere & the Raiders)

Well, listen, my children, &-a you're gonna hear
About the midnight ride of-a Paul Revere
He had a hopped-up on his shoulder & mighty hot
Stand on his tail & off like a shot
He was a goin'-tide cat, this ol' Revere (rockin' Paul Revere)

You know he said to "stand on the shoulder & watch for the lights
I'm gonna blink 'em once, oh or blink 'em twice
Once if I hear & twice if I see
Then off of my trail they ain't gonna catch me"
He was a cautious mudder, this ol' Revere (rockin' Paul Revere)

CHORUS:
He was a-rockin' & a-ridin' (rockin' & a-ridin')
He was a-peelin' & a-hidin' (peelin' & a-hidin')
He was a-tearin' up the lane like a man insane
Rockin' Paul Revere

(instrumental)
(Rockin' Paul Revere)

Well, studs drove the message & they pulled down the zips
They headed for the bridge to cut off the ships
When they got there they shuffled it tight
They polished their pieces & got set to fight
They got the word, man, from ol' Revere (rockin' Paul Revere)

(chorus)

Studs saved their bridge & they saved their pads
They were one big bunch of-a happy dads
They licked the mean casses, had nothin' but fear
But they coded homage to Paul Revere
He was a real good head, this ol' Revere (rockin' Paul Revere)

Ah, tell 'em that, Revere! Oh, ride that on, travel, yeah!
Look at him a-smokin' down that road!
First they got to see him push them red cats right into the sea!
Oh, travel on! (Rockin' Paul Revere)

Sometimes

Sometimes I cry when I'm lonely
Sometimes I cry when I'm blue

Come on & tell me that you love me
Won't you please answer yes or no
Tell me if I'm your one & only
So I can either stay or go, wo oh

Tell me, my darlin', if you love me
Now tell me if you feel the same
Tell me, my darlin', if you love me
Or if all the tears I shed were shed in vain
Oh tell me now

(repeat & fade):
I'm cryin' 'cause you don't love me too

Steppin' Out
(Paul Revere/Mark Lindsay)

Well, I had to leave town because of Uncle Sam's deal, ha ha ha yeah
Well, I guess my good lovin' done lost its appeal
Because when I called back I heard a-bad bad news
They say our big romance has been gettin' abuse
Now tell the truth, don't lie to me
Have you been step, step, step, step, step, step, steppin' out on me?
I've got ways of findin' out if you've been steppin' out on me
It's my turn, let me give you a piece of my mind

I told you once, I told you twice
You're kind of rowdy after walkin' on ice
Turn your loop in, do what I want you to do
Stop your messin' now or I'm gonna step out on you
Hey! Hey! Hey hey hey hey!

If I can't be your one & only man
I'm gonna call your daddy to give him back your hand
I'm gonna call the preacher, tell the choir stay home
I guess you're the kind of woman that's just 'bout to roam
Now tell me true, don't lie to me
Have you been step, step, step, step, step, step, steppin' out on me?
Tell the truth, child; you've been steppin' out on me
I gotta know in my heart if you've been steppin' out on me
I'll be checkin' with all your friends if you've been steppin' out on me
Better tell me the truth honey; have you been steppin' out on me?
Yeah I'm gonna check; no more stuff or I'll be steppin' out on you
(more talk, fading out)

Action
(S. Venet/Tommy Boyce)

CHORUS:
Oh baby come on (let me take you where the action is) (x3)
It's so neat to meet you, baby, where the action is

In every little town across the USA
There's a spot where the people go 'most every day
So leave all your troubles & get away
Come on down & listen to the guitar play

Dance dance dance when you hear that beat
Dance dance dance, get up off of your seat
Dance dance dance, let your backbone slip
Let's go to a place on the Sunset Strip

If all night long you've been waitin' to dance
Well all night long you're gonna have your chance
So don't sit at home just a-twiddlin' your thumbs
You can't resist the sound of the drivin' drums

(repeat verse 2)

(chorus)

SS 396
(L. Adessa/V. Benay)

Forget about your Hemis & your GTOs
I've got a new machine & she really goes
Gonna pass you in the drags & you know darn well
Gettin' beaten by a Porcupine V8 Chevelle
Draggin' it up now, you'd better be quick
Nothin' could outrun my SS 396

There's lots of chrome goodies sittin' under the hood
She looks real pretty like a tough one should
On her red-line tires, she sits real mean
She's the coolest hot one you've ever seen
Crusin' the highways, I get my kicks
Everybody's diggin' my SS 396

(x2):
Look at her go (look at her go)
She sits real low (she sits real low)
Feel her tires grip the road
Deep breathin' 4 (deep breathin' 4)
Won't let herself show (let herself show)
Feel the rear end down below
I'll take you for a ride & it's really a treat
Just strap yourself into a bucket seat
& the 4-speed Trammy is startin' to wind
We'll know that Super Sport wants to get off the line
Crusin' the highways, I get my kicks
Nothin' can match my SS 396

(repeat title & fade)

Corvair Baby
(W. Stone)

Well, I got a gal & it drives the most, Corvair baby
We head for the course way down on the coast, Corvair baby
I'll make the foot surge, she says "oh yeah"
I'll make the seconds just now
'Bout the time we're in the street away, she's by my side
But wo yeah, she digs my style

Stick with me, baby, & stay by my side, Corvair baby
'Cause I want you there whenever we ride, Corvair baby
We'll be together wherever we go, & everybody will know
'Cause you're my baby, my Corvair baby & I'll, I'll never let you go

(instrumental)

Well I'll make the foot surge, she says "oh yeah"
I'll make the seconds just now
'Bout the time we're in the street away, she's by my side
But wo yeah, she digs my style

(repeat verse 2)

(repeat & fade):
You're my baby, my Corvair baby & I'll, I'll never let you go
