Lincoln has the jazz world pro-

duced a singer-songwriter with
such a unique and compelling
vision of life. tler lyrics celebrate
our most enduring and underval-
ued relationship: love of familr'.
of earth, of the human spirit, and
rnost of all love of sclf . "when
you're twenty or thirty or even
forty," she says, "the most impor-
tant thing in a person's life is
another person. But I'm a mature
woman now, ancl there are othcr
things ro talk about."
It has taken decades for
Abbey'to win universai acclaint
as one of our preeminent vocal
storytellers-"Billie Holiday's onlr
true successor," to quote Peter
watrous of the New York Times
Not content to sing only love
songs, nbbey set out to explore
mrrsic with a broader meaning in
the 6O's. "Straight Ahead" a col-
lectiorrof songs, many of thent
h e r o w n , c i et v e d i n t o s o c i a l
themes.
tlLrt only when Polydor
France signed her in lgag clid a
greater inlernationai audience
discoVer her musical gifts. ln
1993 PBS aired thc documentan
"You Gotta Pay the Band: The
Words, the Music, and the Life of
Abbey Lincoln." It examines the
experiences and achievements
reflected so vividly in her music.
1'he songs in this collection
address the full range of Abbe1"-s
concerns. In "Bird Alone" she
offers a moody, autobiographical
picture of what she dubs "a sin-
gular life": "Llird alone, flying

2. First there's a woman
All through the night
Who prays and delivers the son
One who's made ready
To enter a world
And live until everything's done
Another soul to bear
A cross we share
And now and then
Somebody with a crown we wear
But first there's a woman
Who carries the child
And carries them all the way home
Additional Lyrics
3. First came the woman
Who follows a man
And lives for the light in his eyes
Usually willing
She dreams to fulfill
The great propheciesof the skies
And so with everything given to see
She wants to be what he wants to be
First there's a woman
Who follows a man
And follows him all the way home

And her vesselsmultiplied While a courting nightingale
One for every year Sang the whole night through
When the number of the ships Then just like the morning
Descendingfrom the one In a blaze of light
Came to number eighty four She spread her wings of miracles
She knew here work was done And disappearedfrom sight

Sailing through the heavens
On another trip
I expect to seeyou
On another day
Living in another light

, Some folks talk about the love they're feeling.

Talk about the love they need.
Others say that love is waiting.
In the meantime watch my speed.
I got love for climbing mountains, love for sailing over seas.
I got love there is no stopping, love for sending like the breeze.
To Chorus:

When my life on earth is over and the struggle here is done.

I will find a new dimension in the rising sun.
In the place that is forever, I will spread my wings and fly.
If you seea streak of lightning, I'll be passingby.

2. My father built us houses. 6. Sometimesthe river's calling,
And he kept his folks inside, Sometimesthe shadowsfall,
His images were stolen, That's when he's like a mountain.
And his beauty was denied, Rising master over all,

3. My brothers are unhappy, 7. This story of my father,

My sisters they are too, Is the one I tell and give,
My mother prays for glory, It's the power and the glory,
And my father stands accused, Of the life I make and live.

4. My father, yes my father, 8. My father has a kingdom,

A brave and skillful man, My father wears a crown.
He fed and served his people, And he lives within the people,
With the magic of his hand, In the lives he handed down,

5. My father, yes my father, 9. My father has a kingdom,

His soul was sorely tried, My father wears a crown,
'Cause his images
were stolen, And through the spirit of my mother, Lord,
And his beauty was denied, The crown was handed down.

2. He gathers pretty flowers 3. SometimesI run to meet him

And he hums, sometimeshe sings
His melody is mellow
And around the world it rings
He is my world's delight
And in the evening out of sight
He is starrin' in the night
The rising sun.
And I tell him of my dreams
His gaze is steady on me
And I'm blushing from his beams
His conversationtsfine
And I love to dance and dine
With the movin' groovin'
Early rising sun.

4. He brings the many colors

For the facesthat I wear
His face is like a diamond
And it's shining everywhere
He is a central figure
And he makes the world grow bigger
Just becausehe is the early rising sun
Just becausehe is the early rising sun.

And a hand to help us stand To what we own and claim
With a gentle kind of motion Possessingand belonging to
As it moves across the land Acknowledging a name
And the hand's unclenched and open So keep your hand wide open
Gifts of life and love it brings Ifyou're needing love today
'Cause you can't looseit even if you
So keep your hand wide open
It you're needing anything. Throw it all away.

Additional Lyrics

When I'm called home

I will sing a song
And tell them of a beggar's life
Where everything goeswrong
Where everybody's hopes and dreams
Are shattered by the wind.
I'll tell them of a ghosty world
Of us and they and him.
I'll tell them how the shadows fall
When they call me home.

When I'm called home

I will tell the stars
Of the battles that were lost
In a world of wars.
I will tell the rivers
Of the children lost at sea
Of how a soul is bartered
And what it costs a spirit free.
Hallelujah tell a story, oh
When they call me home.
