"Ride A White Swan" as written by and Marc Bolan....
Ride it on out like a bird in the sky ways
Ride it on out like you were a bird
Fly it all out like an eagle in a sunbeam
Ride it on out like you were a bird
Wear a tall hat like a druid in the old days
Wear a tall hat and a tatooed gown
Ride a white swan like the people of the Beltane
Wear your hair long, babe you can't go wrong
Catch a bright star and a place it on your forehead
Say a few spells and baby, there you go
Take a black cat and sit it on your shoulder
And in the morning you'll know all you know, oh
Wear a tall hat like a druid in the old days
Wear a tall hat and a tatooed gown
Ride a white swan like the people of the Beltane
Wear your hair long, babe you can't go wrong

Great song though, i love it and makes me want to dance!
bolan always references it and as far as i know its like, some celtic festival..
he was kinda tolkein influenced too, if that helps.
I have no idea what this song is about, or if it's about anything, but it's great. Great guitar part.
