Dan Steely Kid Charlemagne Lyrics:
While the music played you
worked by candlelight
Those San Francisco nights
You were the best in town
Just by chance you crossed the
diamond with the pearl
You turned it on the world
That's when you turned the world around
Did you feel like Jesus
Did you realize
That you were a champion in their eyes

On the hill the stuff was
laced with kerosene
But yours was kitchen clean
Everyone stopped to stare at your
technicolor motor home
Every A-Frame had your number on the wall
You must have had it all
You'd go to L.A. on a dare
And you'd go it alone
Could you live forever
Could you see the day
Could you feel your whole world
fall apart and fade away

CHORUS:
Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne
Get along Kid Charlemagne

Now your patrons have all
left you in the red
Your low rent friends are dead
This life can be very strange
All those dayglow freaks who
used to paint the face
They've joined the human race
Some things will never change
Son you were mistaken
You are obsolete
Look at all the white men on the street

CHORUS

Clean this mess up else
we'll all end up in jail
Those test tubes and the scale
Just get them all out of here
Is there gas in the car
Yes, there's gas in the car
I think the people down the hall
Know who you are

Careful what you carry
'Cause the man is wise
You are still an outlaw in their eyes

CHORUS
Lyrics: Kid Charlemagne, Dan Steely [end]
