Noel Gallagher of Oasis performs an acoustic version of the song "D'You Know What I Mean?" for an acoustic radio session (München/Munich 18.07.97). Lyrics:

Step off a train, all alone at dawn
Back into the hole where I was born
Sun in the sky, never raised an eye to me
Blood on the tracks, and they must be mine
Fool on the hill, and I feel fine
Don't look back, cos you know what you might see

Look into the wall of my mind's eye
I think I know, but I don't know why
Questions of the answers you might need
Coming in a mess, going out in style
I ain't good lookin', but I'm someone's child
No one can give me the air that's mine to breathe

I met my maker, I made him cry
And on my shoulder, he asked me why
His people won't fly through the storm
I said "listen up man, they don't even know you're born"

All my people right here, right now
D'you know what I mean? yeah, yeah
All my people right here, right now
D'you know what I mean? yeah, yeah
All my people right here, right now
D'you know what I mean? yeah, yeah

I don't really care for what you believe
Open up your fist and you will receive
The thoughts and the words of every man you'll need
Get up off the floor and believe in life
No-one's ever gonna ever ask you twice
Get on the bus and bring it on home to me

I met my maker, I made him cry
On my shoulder, he asked me why
His people won't fly through the storm
And I said "listen up man, they don't even know you're born"

But all my people right here, right now
They know what I mean? yeah, yeah
All my people right here, right now
They know what I mean? yeah, yeah
All my people right here, right now
They know what I mean? yeah, yeah

All my people right here, right now
D'you know what I mean? yeah, yeah
All my people right here, right now
D'you know what I mean? yeah, yeah
All my people right here, right now
D'you know what I mean? yeah, yeah

(N. Gallagher)
