Lyrics of 'James And The Gang' by Joan Baez

Can you find
another star to dream on
The summer's coming to an end
Say goodbye to all
your wandering friends
And lovers, casual confidants
Who shared your dreams
When you were sixteen

And you walked
on the sands of glory
With James and the gang
You were one magnificent story
You and James and the gang

Pass the pipe
and like the sun get higher
In pack of roving wolverines
Placing bets on every girl
in teens and jeans
Who eyed you suspiciously
With your biblical hair
And your mystical stare

As you walked on
the sands of glory
With James and the gang
You were one magnificent story
You and James and the gang

When all your illusions did lie
in the palm of your hand
And your limits were only the sky
and the rolling sand
And of every summer to come
This summer would be the one
You'd remember forever
In your dreams

Oh, twinkle, twinkle little star
Did you ever wonder who you are
And do you think that life
is just a Belushi movie
And the heartbreak years
that lie ahead
Be true to yourself
and the Grateful Dead
And remember the summer
when all was hip and groovy

And you walked on
the sands of glory
With James and the gang
You were one magnificent story
You and James and the gang

Hush little baby,
momma once was sixteen
On the back of a Harley Davidson
Boyfriend was a born again
He shouted from the word of Jesus
while doing 105
Down the coast highway
Only half a day from where

You walked on the sands of glory
With James and the gang
You were one magnificent story
You and James and the gang
