Lyrics: John Dawson?
Music: John Dawson?
Played by the New Riders of the Purple Sage in their very early days -
the version I have is from a concert on 18 September 1970, with Jerry Garcia
on pedal steel and Mickey Hart on drums. I would guess it is a John Dawson
original.
Well I can leap tall buildings in a single bound
And I can fly much faster than the speed of sound
And I'd be happy to perform all these tricks for you
'Cause [?], I'm in love with you
I can make the sun shine when the weather's bad
And I can love you better than those other guys you've had
And I'd be happy to perform all these feats for you
'Cause [?], I'm in love with you
Well I can bring the bacon when the cupboard's dry
And I can warm your body, yes, and I can get you high
And I'd be happy to perform all these tricks for you
'Cause [?], I'm in love with you
[?]
What I have for you
[?]
Please be a woman too
Well I can leap tall buildings in a single bound
And I can fly much faster than the speed of sound
And I'd be happy to perform all these feats for you
'Cause [?] your name, I'm in love with you
Well I can bring the bacon when the cupboard's dry
And I can warm your body, and I can get you high
And I'd be happy to perform all these tricks for you
'Cause [?], I'm in love with you
'Cause [?], I'm in love with you
