[Verse 1] I've been to London, seen seven wonders I know to trip is just to fall I used to rock it, sometimes I'd roll it I always knew what it was for
[Pre-Chorus] There can be no denying That the wind'll shake 'em down And the flag we're flying Is the new flag of the land
[Chorus] If we could just join hands If we could just join hands If we could just join...
[Verse 2] In fields of plenty When heaven sent me I saw the kings who rule them all Still by the firelight and purple moonlight I hear the rested rivers call
[Pre-Chorus] And the wind is crying From a love that won't grow cold My lover, she is lying On the dark side of the globe
[Chorus] If we could just join hands If we could just join hands If we could just join hands Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah
[Bridge] You got me rocking when I ought to be a-rolling Darling, tell me, darling, which way to go You keep me rocking, baby, then you keep me stalling Won't you tell me, darling, which way to go, that's right
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3] Oh how I wonder, oh how I worry And I would dearly like to know Of all this wonder, of earthly plunder Will it leave us anything to show?
[Pre-Chorus] And our time is flying See the candle burning low Is the new world rising From the shambles of the old?
[Chorus] If we could just join hands If we could just join hands If we could just, if we could just, if we could just If we could just, if we could just join hands Hey! That's all it takes, that's all it takes That's all it takes, that's all it takes Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah Ooh yeah, Ah! Ah! Ah! That's right, that's right, that's right, that's right

‘Custard Pie’ kicks off side A with a raunchy innuendo, its closing blues harmonica solo trailing into ‘The Rover,’ which touts some of Jimmy Page’s most underrated guitar lines. These steady rockers set the tempo and build momentum — integral when you’re trying to keep listeners entertained for 82 minutes.
