The Grateful Dead — Bertha Live at the Palestra Rochester NY October 26 1971

[Intro] From San Francisco, The Grateful Dead [Verse 1] I had a hard run Running from your window I was all night running, running Lord, I wonder if you care I had a run-in Run around and run down Run around a corner I run smack into a tree [Chorus] I had to move Really had to move That's why if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore [Verse 2] Dressed myself in green I went down to the sea Try to see what's going down, down Try to read between the lines I had a feeling I was falling, falling, falling I turned around to see Heard a voice calling Lord, is running back to me [Chorus] I had to move Really had to move That's why if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore [Verse 3] Ran into a rainstorm I ducked into a bar door It was all night pouring But not a drop on me Test me, test me, test me, test me Why don't you arrest me? Throw me in the jail house Lord, until the sun goes down 'Til it go down [Chorus] I had to move Really had to move That's why if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore [Instrumental break] [Chorus] I had to move Really had to move That's why if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore [Outro] I had to move Really had to move That's why if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore I had to move Really had to move That's why if you please I am on my bended knees Bertha, don't you come around here anymore Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore - A big hello to all you radio listenin' fans. I hope to tell you it's hot here. This is rock and roll, folks, hot and sweaty. Pigpen's a little sick, and he didn't come with us this time, but we know that we can count on you guys' best wishes for Pigpen, who's sick at home. Thank you, folks. We got a new piano player and organ player with us this time, Keith Godchaux from California. That's all you need to know. And that doesn't make it any bit cooler in here - Hey, during numbers, between the numbers, can we have a lot more light on the stage? Don't change the light because nobody can see, they're all around near their dials and switches. Thank you - Right, right, it's a little too romantic in here. (You wanna turn up my monitors so I can hear myself?) Yeah, turn up the monitors like crazy, it's difficult to hear here, man. (If not impossible) Okay, I'll move my microphone back and see if that affects a change, makes it ring in a different place. Woo. Ahh
