Earth Blues (Baggy’s Rehearsal Session) Jimi Hendrix

[Verse 1: Jimi Hendrix]
Well, I see hands, and I see tear-stained faces
Reaching up but not quite touching the promised land
Well, I taste tears and the precious years wasted
Saying Lord, please, send us a helping hand

[Chorus: Jimi Hendrix, (Background Singers)]
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
On the mountain stands a woman
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Hey, I feel her shining light
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Lord, must be the answer
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Thank you, Lord, and keep her alright
Got them earth blues today

[Verse 2: Jimi Hendrix]
I hear the thunder of freedom's beating heart
Sirens clashing with black earth and rocking stone
I think you better love me now, darling, it just might be too late after a while
And tell our child to bury old daddy's broken clothes

[Chorus: Jimi Hendrix, (Background Singers)]
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Hey, I see a beautiful woman
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Yes, and I feel her shining light on me
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Lord! Must be the answer
(Lord, Lord, Lord)
Help me, Lord, and keep her alright for me
