Music: Phil Lesh Played a few times by the Grateful Dead in 1968--and not to be confused with the traditional Oh My Darling Clementine. The lyric is not in Robert Hunters book Box Of Rain, but he has confirmed he wrote it Chopped olive sandwiches, roses and wine Cold ripe persimmons, my sweet Clementine Theres a chill in the meadow, of bottomless time I go on, I go on, I cannot fill my cup Theres a hole in the bottom, the spring has dried up I run through the forests of linear time Chop through the branches and cut through the vines Ill be back in a moment, though it may take me years In the lava rock canyons corroded with fears Of corruptible bodies and grief beyond tears Ill go on till I hear the sweet voices behind That Ive left for the comfort of cold Clementine This is the 2 Feb 1968 version: Chopped olive sandwiches, roses and wine Red ripe persimmons, my sweet Clementine I go on, I go on, I cant fill my cup Theres a hole in the bottom, the well has dried up I run through the forest, I cut past the vine Head through the thickets of linear time of voices, sweet voices behind Ive left for the comfort of cold Clementine Notes the 20 Jan 1968 version is Cold ripe persimmons the 23 Jan 1968 version is ... never was mine The 20 Jan 1968 version is essentially the same as the 2 Feb one, but with the first verse only. The 23 Jan 1968 version has Jerry singing the first verse, then repeating the first two lines of the first verse, followed by the third and fourth lines of the second verse The 26 Jan 1969 version is a more complete one: Chopped olive sandwiches, roses and wine Cold ripe persimmons, my sweet Clementine Theres a chill in the meadow of bottomless time I go on, I go on, I cant fill my cup Theres a hole in the bottom, the spring has dried up Just a thought for the moment, it never was mine Just like a and cut past the vines I run through the forests of linear time I go on, I go on, I cant fill my cup I go on, I go on, though it might take me years In the lava rock canyons all corroded with fears Corruptible bodies and grief beyond tears I go on till I hear the sweet voices behind That Ive left for the comfort of cold Clementine
Who else is gonna bring you a broken arrow Who else is gonna bring you a bottle of rain There he goes moving across the water There he goes turning my whole world around Do you feel what I feel Can we make it so thats part of the deal I gotta hold you in these arms of steel Lay your heart on the line this time I wanna breathe when you breathe When you whisper like that hot summer breeze Count the beads of sweat that cover me Didnt you show me a sign this time Can you see what I see Can you cut behind the mystery I will meet you by the witness tree Leave the whole world behind I want to come when you call Ill get to you if I have to crawl They cant hold me with these iron walls We got mountains to climb, to climb Turning my whole world around Turning my whole world around Turning my whole world around

Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans Way back in the woods among the evergreens There in an old cabin made of earth and wood There lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode He never learned to read or write so well But he could play a guitar like ringing a bell Go go, go Johnny go, go, go Johnny go, go Go Johnny go, go, go Johnny go, go, go Johnny B. Goode He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack Go sit up in the trees by the railroad track The engineers seen him sitting in the shade Strumming to the rhythm that the drivers made People passing by would stop and say My my, but that little country boy can play! Go go, go Johnny go, go, go Johnny go, go Go Johnny go, go, go Johnny go, go, go Johnny B. Goode His mamma told him someday you will be a man You will be the leader of a big old band Many people coming from miles around To hear you play your music when the sun goes down Maybe someday your name will be in lights Johnny B. Goode tonight Go go, go Johnny go, go, go Johnny go, go Go Johnny go, go, go Johnny go, go, go Johnny B. Goode
Casey Jones was an old engineer Call for his family tonight, they will fear All I need is my water and coal Look out the windows, see my drag wheel roll One sunday morning in a driving rain Around the curve came a passenger train In the cabin stood Casey Jones Bold engineer but hes dead and gone Mrs. Casey when she heard the news Sitting at her bedside she was lacing up her shoes Children, children now catch your breath You will draw a pension if your Papas dead Children, children now can you hear Tell me Mama what do you mean by that? Get your hat, put it on your head Go to town, see your Daddys dead Casey said just before he died Fix the blinds so that the bums can ride If they ride, let them ride rock Put their trust in the hands of God Casey said just before he died Two more roads that I want to ride People said, what roads, Casey, can they be? Gold Colorado and the Santa Fe
Music By: Lightnin Hopkins Mama got the rub board, sister got the tub Theyre going round doing the rub-de-rub Aint it crazy, aint it crazy Aint it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin that thing Two old maids, they was layin in a bed One turned over and this is what she said Aint it crazy, aint it crazy Aint it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin that thing Yeah mama killed a chicken, thought it was a duck Put him on the table with his feet sticking up Aint it crazy, aint it crazy Aint it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin that thing There was two old maids, layin in the sand Each one wonderin if the other was a man Aint it crazy, aint it crazy Aint it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin at that thing Notes: This was played by the Dead a dozen times in 1970 and 1971, and before that in 1964 by Mother McCrees Uptown Jug Champions before the Dead proper were formed.It seems clear that the Dead knew this song as The Rub. In July 1964, for example, Weir introduces it by saying that Mr Pigpen McKernan is going to sing a Lightnin Hopkins song - The Rub. But Lightnin Hopkins recordings have it under the title Aint It Crazy, Mighty Crazy or The Crazy Song.

There was a California earthquake, in the year of 83 It shook the living daylights out of the Owens County Seat Not a building was still standing when the dust had cleared away And there was a rumble in the distance all the way to San Andrea Sherman Buck was driving his old mule into town When a big one came and shook so hard, that it knocked him to the ground Lord there opened up a hole so big, he thought his time was up And it swallowed up that poor old mule and it just missed Sherman Buck California earthquake you just dont know what youve done We may fall off in the ocean, but youll never make us run Youre a partner to the devil, but we aint afraid of him Well build ourselves another town so you can tear it down again Then came the quake of 99 that levelled Mission Creek The earth was like an ocean churning, with waves of twenty feet Lord it sounded like a thousand trains were screaming underground All the way to San Joachim they heard that mournful sound Then came one day the holocaust on San Franciso Bay Miles of walls came down like old Jericho that day Might near everything the earthquake missed, a holy fire consumed And left em smoke and the ashes of the dreams that cant be ruined Build ourselves another town so you can tear it down again
As I strolled out one evening within a small cafe A forty year old waitress to me these words did say I see that you are a logger and not just a common bum Because no one but a logger stirs his coffee with his thumb My lover was a logger but not like none today If youd pour whiskey on it hed eat a bale of hay My lover came to see me upon one freezing day He held me in a fond embrace which broke three vertebrae Well he kissed me when we parted so hard that he broke my jaw I could not speak to tell him that he forgot his mackinaw I saw my logger leaving sauntering through the snow Going bravely homeward at forty eight below The weather it tried to freeze him It tried its very best At a hundred degrees below zero he buttoned up his vest It froze clear down to china It froze the stars above At a gazillion degrees below zero It froze her logger love And so I lost my lover And to this cafe I come And here I wait till someone Stirs his coffee with his thum

Im flying down deserted streets Wrapped in mothers winding sheets Asbestos boots on flaming feet Dreaming of forbidden treats When uniforms on nighttime beats Ask me where Im going and what I eat I answer them with a voice so sweet I cant come down Its plain to see I cant come down Ive been set free Who you are and what you do Dont make no difference to me Well someone’s trying to tell me where its at How I do this and why I do that With secret smiles, like a Cheshire Cat And leather wings like a vampire bat I fly away to my cold water flat And eat my way to a bone of fat And I say to the man with the funny hat I cant come down Its plain to see I cant come down Ive been set free Who you are and what you do Dont make no difference to me They say Ive begun to lose my grip My hold on reality is starting to slip Tell me to get off this trip They say that its like a sinking ship Life’s sweet wines too warm to sip And if I drink Ill surely flip I just say as I take a nip I cant come down Its plain to see I cant come down Ive been set free Who you are and what you do Dont make no difference to me So, as I dream of cotton seas And granite halls and redwood trees An ugly eye that only sees Endless mirrors and infinite mes About the winters coming freeze This afterthought I say with ease To all of you who made your pleas I cant come down Its plain to see I cant come down Ive been set free Who you are and what you do Dont make no difference to me

Will your high hopes get you there Goal so far and yet so near You cant ignore the writing on the wall Every time you rise you fall End nowhere in sight at all Why should you pick it up and try again Chorus: Give it up, cause you cant win Let it go while you still can Gave it all you had, now youre feelin bad So youre gone, ready to roam You come on so strong with that same sad song Wherever you go Run along, take your ball and go home Promised yet another chance Forbidden just a single glance So much rides on what you say and do Discarded truths and famous myths Tales that life deceives you with Certain things you always thought you knew Chorus: Helpful hands that pull you down Smaller minds turn you around Friends in need are never really true Why should you put trust in this Bridge above the dark abyss You never learned you cant make all the rules Chorus:

Saint Stephen with a rose In and out of the garden he goes Country garden in the wind and the rain Wherever he goes the people all complain Stephen prospered in his time Well he may and he may decline Did it matter, does it now? Stephen would answer if he only knew how Wishing well with a golden bell Bucket is hanging clear to hell Halfway twixt now and then Stephen fill it up and lower down and lower down again Lady finger, dipped in moonlight Writing what for? across the morning sky Sunlight splatters dawn with answers Darkness shrugs and bids the day goodbye Speeding arrow, sharp and narrow What a lot of fleeting matters you have spurned Several seasons with their treasons Wrap the babe in scarlet colors, call it your own Did he doubt or did he try?

Yes I can! But what would be the answer to the answer man?

Picture a bright blue ball Just spinning, spinning free Dizzy with eternity Paint it with a skin of sky Brush in some clouds and sea Call it home for you and me A peaceful place or so it looks from space closer look reveals the human race Full of hope, full of grace is the human face But afraid we may lay our home to waste Theres a fear down here we cant forget Hasnt got a name just yet Always awake, always around Singing ashes, ashes all fall down Now watch as the ball revolves and the nighttime falls And again the hunt begins, and again the bloodwind calls By and by again, the morning sun will rise the darkness never goes from some mens eyes It strolls the sidewalks and it rolls the streets Its taking turf, dividing up meat Nightmare spook, piece of heat Its you and me You and me Flashblade in ghetto night Rudies looking for a fight Rat cat alley roll them bones Need that cash to feed that jones And the politicians throwing stones Singing ashes, ashes all fall down Commissars and pin-striped bosses roll the dice Any way they fall, guess who gets to pay the price Money green, the proletarian gray Selling guns instead of food today So the kids they dance, they shake their bones While the politicians throwing stones Singing ashes, ashes all fall down Heartless powers try to tell us what to think If the spirits sleeping, then the flesh is ink Historys page will be neatly carved in stone The futures here – we are it – we are on our own If the game is lost then were all the same No one left to place or take the blame We will leave this place an empty stone Oh that shinning ball We can call our home So the kids they dance, they shake their bones While the politicians are throwing stones Singing ashes, ashes all fall down Shooting powders back and forth Singing black goes south while white comes north And the whole world full of petty wars Singing I got mine and you got yours And the current fashions set the pace Lose your step, fall out of grace And the radical, he rant and rage Singing someone got to turn the page! And the rich man in his summer home Singing just leave well enough alone! But his pants are down, his covers blown And the politicians throwing stones So the kids they dance they shake their bones Cause its all too clear were on our own Singing ashes, ashes all fall down Picture a bright blue ball just spinning, spinning free Its dizzying, the possibilities Ashes, ashes all fall down

Lady with a Fan Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme, suggesting rhythm That will not forsake thee, til my tale is told and done While the firelights aglow, strange shadows from the flames will grow Til things weve never seen will seem familiar Shadows of a sailor, forming winds both foul and fair all swarm Down in Carlisle, he loved a lady many years ago Here beside him stands a man, a soldier from the looks of him Who came through many fights, but lost at love While the storyteller speaks, a door within the fire creaks Suddenly flies open, and a girl is standing there Eyes alight, with glowing hair, all that fancy paints as fair She takes her fan and throws it, in the lions den Which of you to gain me, tell, will risk uncertain pains of hell? I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance The sailor gave at least a try, the soldier being much too wise Strategy was his strength, and not disaster The sailor, coming out again, the lady fairly leapt at him Thats how it stands today, you decide if he was wise The storyteller makes no choice, soon you will not hear his voice His job is to shed light, and not to master Since the end is never told, we pay the teller off in gold In hopes he will come back, but he cannot be bought or sold Terrapin Station Inspiration, move me brightly Light the song with sense and color Hold away despair, more than this I will not ask Faced with mysteries dark and vast Statements just seem vain at last Some rise, some fall, some climb, to get to Terrapin Counting stars by candlelight, all are dim but one is bright The spiral light of Venus, rising first and shining best Oh, from the northwest corner, of a brand new crescent moon Crickets and cicadas sing, a rare and different tune Terrapin Station In the shadow of the moon, Terrapin Station And I know well be there soon Terrapin - I cant figure out Terrapin - If its the end or beginning Terrapin - But the trains put its brakes on Terrapin - And the whistle is screaming TERRAPIN
