You Ain't Goin' Nowhere / Jokerman

Clouds so swift
Rain won't lift
Gates won't close
The rail is froze
Get your mind off wintertime
You ain't goin' nowhere

Ooh-ee, ride me high
Tomorrow's the day my bride's gonna come
Oh, are we gonna fly
Down in the easy chair

I don't care how many letters they send
Morning came and morning went
Pick up your money and pack up your tent
You ain't goin' nowhere

Ooh-ee, ride me high
Tomorrow's the day my bride's gonna come
Oh, are we gonna fly
Down in the easy chair

Genghis Khan, he could not keep
All of his kings sublime with sleep
We'll climb that hill
No matter how steep
When we get up to it

Ooh-ee, ride me high
Tomorrow's the day my bride's gonna come
Oh, are we gonna fly
Down in the easy chair

Ooh-ee, ride me high
Tomorrow's the day my bride's gonna come
Oh, are we gonna fly
Down in the easy chair

Standin' on the waters
Castin' your bread
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowin'

Distant ships sailing into the mist
You were born with a snake in both of your fists
While the hurricane was blowing
Freedom just around the corner for you

But with the truth so far off
What good will it do?

Jokerman, dance to the nightingale tune
Bird fly high by the light of the moon
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa
