Somewhere (Sound Center, New York, NY, March 1968) - The Jimi Hendrix Experience

One two three

I see fingers hands and shades of faces

Reachin' up and not quite touchin' the promised land

I hear pleas and prayers and a desperate whisper saying

Oh lord please give us a helpin' hand

Yeah yeah

Way down in the background background

I can see frustrated souls of cities burning

And all across the water baby

I see weapons barkin' out the sting of death

And up in the clouds

I can imagine UFO's jumpin' themselves

Laughin' they sayin'

Those people so uptight

They sure know how to make a mess

Back in the saloon my tears mix

And mildew with my drink

I can't really tell my feet

From the sawdust on the floor

But as far as I know

They may even try to wrap me up

In cellophane and sell me

Brother sell me and don't worry about looking at the score

Yeah yeah yeah
