[00:10.61] While the music played you worked by candlelight
[00:14.53] Those San Francisco nights
[00:16.75] You were the best in town
[00:18.65]
[00:20.04] Just by chance you crossed the diamond with the pearl
[00:23.91]
[00:24.49] You turned it on the world
[00:26.34] That's when you turned the world around
[00:28.02]
[00:29.97] Did you feel like Jesus
[00:32.34]
[00:33.23] Did you realize That you were a champion in their eyes
[00:39.39]
[00:44.73] On the hill the stuff was laced with kerosene
[00:48.22]
[00:49.04] But yours was kitchen clean
[00:50.82] Everyone stopped to stare at your technicolor motor home
[00:53.96]
[00:54.49] Every A-Frame had your number on the wall
[00:58.64] You must have had it all
[01:00.81] You'd go to L.A. on a dare
[01:02.98] And you'd go it alone
[01:04.13] Could you live forever
[01:07.48] Could you see the day
[01:08.42]
[01:10.01] Could you feel your whole world fall apart and fade away
[01:14.29] Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne
[01:19.04] Get along Kid Charlemagne
[01:21.47]
[01:28.89] Now your patrons have all left you in the red
[01:32.36]
[01:32.99] Your low rent friends are dead
[01:34.97] This life can be very strange
[01:36.74]
[01:38.68] All those dayglow freaks who used to paint the face
[01:42.20]
[01:42.70] They've joined the human race
[01:44.87] Some things will never change
[01:46.74]
[01:48.37] Son you were mistaken
[01:50.79]
[01:51.85] You are obsolete
[01:54.26] Look at all the white men on the street
[01:58.22] Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne
[02:03.25] Get along Kid Charlemagne
[02:05.51]
[03:05.54] Clean this mess up else
[03:07.15] we'll all end up in jail
[03:09.69] Those test tubes and the scale
[03:11.55] Just get them all out of here
[03:13.72]
[03:15.77] Is there gas in the car
[03:17.97] Yes, there's gas in the car
[03:20.15]
[03:21.36] I think the people down the hall
[03:23.41] Know who you are
[03:24.93] Careful what you carry
[03:28.47] 'Cause the man is wise
[03:29.89]
[03:30.60] You are still an outlaw in their eyes
[03:33.95]
[03:34.79] Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne
[03:39.62] Get along Kid Charlemagne
[03:41.79]
