The Legacy of Phil Ochs
"And I'll bet you never guessed
There was so much pain
So much pain
Until the haggard ex-lover of a long-time loser
Stands rejectedly by the door"

"They'll rob you of your innocence
They will put you up for sale
The more that you will find success
The more that you will fail
I been around, I've had my share
And I really can't complain
But I wonder who I left behind
The other side of fame"

You Can't Get Stoned Enough
By Phil Ochs
When the toubles of the world rest upon your weary shoulder When the wind that blows upon your face is blowing colder And every hour tells you you're getting older No you can't get stoned enough
Chorus:
And you're high high high high That's all you want to do Any way you get there, yeah That's alright with you You've been warned warned warned warned Seems that's all you've heard But today is your trouble tomorrow's only a word
When your baby says she'll stick with you until the end
And then she says she only wants to be your friend And you find yourself alone out in the street again No you can't get stoned enough
And when you start to feelin' that no one cares And it seems that all your good time friends have disappeared And you reach into the night and find that nobody's there No you can't get stoned enough
