Led Zeppelin - That's The Way Lyrics
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you,
I can't play with you no more,
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me,
My friend, the boy next door.
I can't believe what people saying,
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long,
You're in the darker side of town.
And when I'm out I see you walking,
Why don't your eyes see me,
Could it be you've found another game to play,
What did mama say to me.
That's the way, oh,
That's the way it ought to be,
That's the way it ought to stay.
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes,
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
Had they got you hypnotized?
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
But all that lives is born to die.
And so I say to you that nothing really matters,
And all you do is stand and cry.
I don't know what to say about it,
When all you ears have turned away,
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay?
That's the way...
That's the way it oughtta be
Oh don't you know now, mama said..
That's the way it's gonna stay, yeah.

Led Zeppelin That's The Way Comments
This song played 8 a.m. on my car as I was on the gates leaving a 3 day camping rock festival after I just sobered up contemplating how great of a trip I had experienced and how beautiful all the green pastures and hidden life in a interior remote countryside of Brazil.life, nature and this song could inspire me such a peaceful and unique feeling far away from our modern city times.. a place and rhythm of innocence and true love.. for that moment on I was in tune and at peace.. Grateful and in love for everything in life.
Truly sick . . . Thank-you
Coolness detected around my neck
My husband use to play this, & I’d cry” he was later laid to rest with “Thankyou” . . .
Madeleine de Proust!
One of my favorite LZ tunes for sure-This and Battle of Evermore-both evoke a different time and place-dreamy and melancholic
If anyone has an lp copy of in through the outdoor the sleeve is color by water no guff try it a little bit of water try it
Mmm.. eazy led zep.... some good California grass, and a nice bourbon..
This song makes me cry. (really cry) It's also really relaxing at the same time. You never hear THIS one played on the radio and overplayed. I could also hear The WHO singing this one, for some reason.
in the days of my youth
I bought this album on a misguided whim when I was 14. It took me several years to "get it". I kept playing the stupid, boring thing because I paid for it; out of guilt I would otherwise have wasted my money. After years and years, I did finally get it. What an album.
El yo lo pasa mmmmuuuyyyy BIEN y APASALOBIEN tøs
The mandalorian aprouve this song
Zeppelin - eternamente em meu coração \o/
Wonderful, just wonderful.
DEMAIS ESSA BALADA
it is 2019 and the earth is very flat what do you think of that thanks led zep
Earth isn't flat ya goofball. It just seems that way.
Do you know anything about hot air balloons?
Man, your ugly.
i wish i could do this
Click Bait Jpeg...lol ...
Zeppelin didn't need an MTV Unplugged session cause we knew what they really sounded like acoustically.
so pretty, so everything, so sad, so heart felt, so what God does, so moving, so brilliant, so long ago, so back in the day, so much love from Plant, Page, Jones and Bonham !!! and so From Me 2 You All, because thats what I Do ... from me 2 U ... Glen Fox Forever
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you,
I can't play with you no more,
I don't know how I'm gonna,
Do what mama told me,
My friend, the boy next door.
I can't believe what people saying,
Gonna let your hair hang down,
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long,
You're in the darker side of town.
And when I'm out I see you walking,
Why don't your eyes see me,
Could it be you've found another game to play,
What did mama say to me.
That's the way,
Oh, that's the way it ought to be,
Mama said that's the way it ought to stay, oh.
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes,
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
Had they got you hypnotized.
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
But all that lives is born to die,
And so I say to you that nothing really matterrs,
And all you do is stand and cry.
I don't know what to say about it,
When all your ears have turned away,
But now's the time to look,
And look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay.
That's the way,
Oh, that's the way it oughta be,
Oh, dont you know now,
Mama said that's the way it's gonna stay.
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you
I can't play with you no more
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me
My friend the boy next door
I can't believe what people saying
You're gonna let your hair hang down
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long
You're in the darker side of town
And when I'm out I see you walking
Why don't your eyes see me
Could it be you've found another game to play,
What did mama say to me
That's the way,
Oh, that's the way it ought to be,
Mama say that's the way it ought to stay, yeah, yeah oh oh
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes,
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
Had they got you hypnotized?
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
But all that lives is born to die
And so I say to you that nothing really matters,
And all you do is stand and cry
I don't know what to say about it,
When all you ears have turned away,
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay?
That's the way
That's the way it oughtta be
Oh don't you know now
Mama said, mama said, that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah, oh oh
simply zeppelin
la banda mas grosa del mundo
A sad song I like hearing on rainy days....
Another beautiful melodic ballad by Zeppelin. Album #3. 1970
the track constantly get's faster, but you don't even notice, do ya?
This Tune give's me goosebumps.
Sweet empathy is gone from music today .
Un album culte ! perfection👍
I love this song but this is plant singing about being gay. Go figure ladies.
Zeppelin won the fuckin 🏆
Led Zeppelin ripped off Muddy Waters. The Stones gave credit on their covers
Love this song... I wish musicians could make beautiful music like this again instead of the digital stuff they do today.
My favorite,band
there isnt another song in existence that compares to this one. this is, pure magic. and i don't say that lightly, nor am i just "gassing them up" like some super fan. this song is truly magic. there's an entire universe here
These lyrics have always been troublesome to me
Who thumbed down this song? Best rock EVER!
and ever and ever from hawaii
I love music, and a lot of bands and artists, but no one comes close to how good Led Zeppelin were.
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 love led Zeppelin 😍💗💗
Earphones....
When a Group can PLAY like this, there in Another Place!
All that lives is born to die? Damn it I was having a good care free time thanks for reminding me about it Robby
I can't play with you no more.
So whats this about?
My best guess is that it's a anti racism song based on Robert Plant's early experiences living in the Midlands area which had and still has a large Indian community.
Love Led Zeppelin. 🙆♀️
VERY HEAVY SONG! PUTS YA IN A TRANCE!😨👀
Sounds so much like a Sitar..
Fuckin Awesome !!!!!!
Led zeppelin 3 is like the music version of mario 2 to video games
I’ve always thought Led Zeppelin songs are best listened to in the Fall. Weird but I’ve always thought this for the last 35 years. There’s a relaxing peacefulness so many of their songs bring so perfectly.
Now I do listen to them year round 😊
🤔well love the song.
"Never felt that way about a
boy next door or not"😂
Now that girl i fell in love with yes, and think her mom liked me even more😉
simply beautiful...
My fav zep album
Smashin some GG#4🚬 AND GETTING THE LED OUT! HOPE MY NEIGHBORS LIKE IT!👊😁
One of the best ever makes you feel and think and occasionally cry. What the hell has happened to music.
Blessed be!
This song, and the battle of evermore... how? I don't know how it's so simple/yet so complex and rich and full of sound at the same time? Love It!
Rock on Zep!😊🧡🧡😊🧡
Daisy is a very special spirit.
It's sort of an introspective country tune... I love the way he evokes that feeling that you shouldn't search for happiness to hard... Just let it be
Watch stairway to heaven sang by heart and check out the faces of led zappa members sitting in the front row of that concert I rest my case your honour .the defence rests
I know im hacked
Blabbermouth lol
Wow the WORDS ARE SO INTENSE
Remember normal life when every day music was so excellent you thought it would go on forever
What are those lyrics about
Anti racism I think.
The best rock band ever!!!
probably my favorite song, ever.
This was played at my dad's funeral 7 years ago this August.
I miss you dad, you were so cool, you taught me so much xx
Is it just me, or does the instrumental at the end seem timeless! It hypnotises me, and I’m not sure if 1 minute, or hours have passed. It’s always done the same to me, and now I’m 64!
I saw them in Dallas winter of '70-'71. Cold outside. Amazing night. Less words are better here. The music speaks.
Happy to say that I really appreciate the opportunity to see the world best rock groups
I'm lovin this one. I feel like it was in my heart all along .😄💖
💋 I came here coz I didn't hear this in a video game, movie, or TV!! I am a true Led Zeppelin fan not a wannabe! You know them or you don't! A video game isn't knowing youngins but good try. Buy albums & listen to every song to experience the Zep, think them over than say you know! 1 song from game + Stairway to Heaven doesn't constitute knowing Zeppelin!! Youngins please listen, learn, pass on the great music, the bands that made Rock & Roll what it is today!
GET THE LED OUT!
🇨🇦💗🎼🎶🌍☮🍁
Prob my fav Led Zeppelin song. This is Led Zeppelin, right?
The sound of the guitars playing it's just Beautiful <3 Tambourine at The End
Raccooneggs anyone?
Good stuff !
Rare but Treatable Leukemia! Thats the way it is! Treated and now the Leukemia in me to find, is rare! *) 23 years and Hard To Kill! *) Thats the Way! *)
When I’m out I see you walking... why don’t your eyes see me
R.i.p.J.L.M.....see ya soon baby
Imagine sitting around a campfire at night with friends/family, listening to the breeze rustling through the treetops and the sounds of nature, and watching the starry sky... That's what I think of when I hear this song
This song was written in a small house without energy in Gales... 8)
Nós, sessentoes, que curtimos o som do Led, deixem o seu like!!!😁😁😁
These lyrics break my heart
Pure transcendent beauty. How they could go from doing songs like the lemon song to this just shows what giants they are!! 😎😊
I love this band. This song take me for a trip, That's It. There are others who have this Power. For example, Ramble on and thank you.
my goodness.... this is my funeral song...
Shut up Racc
teenage years in the summer time.
This song brings back so many memories. Life seemed so much easier back then. The song sound so good on my sound system when I am riding my Electra Glide. 02-04-2019..😎
Unbelievable song and it's in one of my favorite films, Almost Famous!!
Amazing song!!!
