THE YARDBIRDS lyrics

   EVIL HEARTED YOU

Evil hearted youl
You always try to put me down
with the things you do
and words you spread around
against me.

Evil hearted you!
You kept kidding me along
with your phony smile
and with your siren songs
smilin', beguilin'
you lead me on
till all hope's gone,
persuading, degrading
on my knees I try to please.
But I love you just the same
and I want you to remain
by my side-and you'll see
Just how much you mean to me.

Evil hearted you!
You always try to put me down
with the things you do
and words you spread around
against me, about me.
What would you do without me?

   FOR YOUR LOVE

For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
I'd give you everything and more, and that's for sure.
For your love.
I'd bring you diamond rings and things right to your door.
For your love.

To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.

For your love.
For your love.
For your love.

For your love, for your love,
I would give the stars above.
For your love, for your love,
I would give you all I could.

For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
I'd give the moon if it were mine to give.
For your love.
I'd give the stars and the sun 'fore I live.
For your love.

To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.

For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.

   HEART FULL OF SOUL

And I know if she had me back again
well I would never make her sad.
I've gotta heart full of soul.

Sick at heart and lonely,
deep in dark despair.
Thinking one thought only
where is she tell me where.
And if she says to you
she doesn't love me
just give her my message
tell her of my plea
She's been gone such a long time
longer than I can bear
but if she says she wants me
tell her that I'll be there
And if she says to you
she doesn't love me
just give her my message
tell her of my plea.

   I AIN'T GOT YOU

Got a fifty-six Cadillac
With a spare tire on the back
Got a charge account at my own bank
Said, I ain't got you

We got a classic and a pool
And a big hair ghoul
No matter who I fool
I ain't got you

I got a tavern and a liquor store
Playin' the number four, four, four
Got a mojo, don't you know
I'm all dressed up with no place to go

I got women to the left of me
Women to the right of me
I got chicks all around me
Said, I ain't got you

   I'M A MAN

You pretty women,
Standing in line,
Make love to babe,
In my own time
'Cause I'm a man,
turned 21,
I spell M - A - N, man

Don't back down,
To Kansas too
Bring back a pretty girl,
Just like you,
'Cause I'm a man
I spell m, a, n, man

   OVER UNDER SIDEWAYS DOWN

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Cars and girls are easy come by in this day and age
laughing joking drinking smoking
till I've spent my wage.
When I was young people spoke of immorality
all the things they said
were wrong are what I want to be.
Over under sideways down.
Hey, backwards square and 'round.
Over under sideways down.
Hey, backwards square and round.
When will it end, when will it end.
Hey! Hey!
I find comment 'bout my looks irrelativity
think I'll go and have some fun 'cos it's all for free
I'm not searching for a reason to enjoy myself
seems it's better done
than argued with somebody else.
Over under sideways down.
Hey, backwards square and round.
Over under sideways down.
Hey, backwards square and round.
When will it end, when will it end.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Over under sideways down...

   SHAPES OF THINGS

Shapes of things before my eyes
just teach me to despise
Will time make men more wise ?
Here within my lonely frame
My eyes just hurt my brain
But will it seem the same?
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow. may I be a soldier
come tomorrow. may I be bolder than today
Now the trees are almost green
But will they still be seen
When time and tide have been
Oh, into your passing hands
please don't destroy these lands
Don't make them desert sands.

   MISTER YOU'R A BETTER MAN THAN I

Can you judge a man
By the way he wears his hair
Can you read his mind
By the clothes that he wears
Can you see a bad man
By the pattern on his tie

Chorus:
Well then mister you're a better man than I 4x

Could you tell a wise man
By the way he speaks or spells
Is this more important
Than the stories that he tells
And call a man a fool
If for wealth he doesn't strive

Chorus

You condemn a man
If you faith he doesn't hold
You say the color of his skin
Is the color of his soul
Could you say that men
For king and country all must die?

Chorus
