Dreams Lyrics
Just one more mornin'
I had to wake up with the blues
Pulled myself outta bed, yeah
Put on my walkin' shoes,
Went up on the mountain,
To see what I could see,
The whole world was fallin',
right down in front of me.
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm hung up on dreams I'll never see, yeah Baby.
Ahh help me baby, or this will surely be the end of me, yeah.
Pull myself together, put on a new face,
Climb down off the hilltop, baby,
Get back in the race.
[Chorus]
Pull myself together, put on a new face,
Climb down off the hilltop, baby,
Get back in the race.
[Chorus]
I had to wake up with the blues
Pulled myself outta bed, yeah
Put on my walkin' shoes,
Went up on the mountain,
To see what I could see,
The whole world was fallin',
right down in front of me.
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm hung up on dreams I'll never see, yeah Baby.
Ahh help me baby, or this will surely be the end of me, yeah.
Pull myself together, put on a new face,
Climb down off the hilltop, baby,
Get back in the race.
[Chorus]
Pull myself together, put on a new face,
Climb down off the hilltop, baby,
Get back in the race.
[Chorus]

im looking at a cd jacket of a molly hatchet album right now and it says 3 slightly different words:
By
Gregg
Allman
this is a beautiful song about getting away and solving your problems with the help of solitude.great songs!
When I say this is truly one of the most underrated songs ever written, I am not being cliche. It really is. The Allman Brothers' best studio epic. Gregg steals the show with the organ/lyrics/voice.
What idiot thinks this is a Molly hatchet cover. This song came out in 1969 before the POSERS Molly Hatchet were even hatched. This was Duane's slide masterpiece. God you people are retarded. Gregg wrote and Duane played and my life was changed the 1st time I heard it.
Well, I know that this one is the original version, but I also like the molly hatchet one... And however...I think that Molly Hatchet, together with Skynyrd & Allman Brothers, are the best southern rock bands ever.
I pretty much agree with Dornan's take on it. On a personal note: This song has special meaning for me. At a particularly low point in my life, I once went up onto a mountain - literally - to clear my head & think & pray. When I went back down, I had renewed hope. That's what it means to me. BTW, I think the cover by Molly Hatchet is excellent as well. (Yes, the Allman Bros did it first!)
And I quote Ed King...."Southern Rock died the day Molly Hatchet came out."
The lyrics speak volumes to me... and they are not all that details so it can mean a little bit different to different people. To most people it's probaby just a good Allman Bros blues jam with a kind of dreamy lyrical content. He's haunted by ambition but struck by just that portion of the 'dream' or creative inspiration that he can hang on to. So he's decided that he has to sing this song and try to bring himself back down of the 'high mountain' and back down to a more do-able frame of reality where he can both function and do what he does best... but the difference being that he's had to accept that he can't completely hang on to the elusive creativity that he would have liked to. This way he might be able to retain his sanity... or not.
I'm hung up on Dreams I'll never see.....not hunger for dreams
Little different from Fleetwood Mac's. XD
