hippie texts needed

hi I need hippie texts, song lyrics or poetry that in the best way reflect the hippie culture, i need it for my thesis. i i will be grateful if enybody could help me

 

Past the stars in fields of ancient void,
Through the shields of darkness where they find,
Love upon a land a world unknown
Where the sons of freedom make their home
Leave the earth to Satan and his slaves
Leave them to their future in their grave
Make a home where love is there to stay
Peace and happiness in every day.

Black Sabbath - Into The Void

 

I as a boy, I believed the saying the cure for pain was love
How would it be if you could see the world through my eyes?

Supertramp - Hide In Your Shell

 

However I love that song and it's lyrics very much, I don't think that line is typical hippy.

 

thanks but I need only those texts that were written during the sixties era, so far ive got "Strawberry Fields Forever by the Beatles, Jefferson Airplane "White Rabbit",Scott McKenzie “San Francisco”,rock musical "Hair" title song lyric, “Blowin' in the Wind’ Bob Dylan,the Byrds "Turn! Turn! Turn!,the Beatles “Revolution" and some poem written by anonymous hippie. I'm writing my bechelors degree now, and ive stuck that is why i need help, i have to submit my thesis on Wednesday

 

letz meh rite dat paper 4 you write.

 

True, it's not TYPICAL hippie... but I think it talks about people who try to establish a society of ''peace and happiness'' leaving behind ''Satan'' wich we could compare to war, junk media, etc.
Sounds hippie to me but whatever. I thought it would be interesting for ariciia to have a non-typical version of peace and love...

 

no one to help??

 

Yeah, you got a point there.

Those lyrics of Black Sabbath are from 1971, weren't there still a lot of hippies in those days? Surely more than in 1961, for example. And there are more albums from that year that are associated with the hippieculture. I put one more of Sabbath here that could be considered hippie:

Children of the Grave

Revolution in their minds
The children start to march
Against the world in which they have to live
And all the hate that's in their hearts
They're tired of being pushed around
And told just what to do
They'll fight the world until they've won
And love comes flowing through.

Children of tomorrow live in the tears that fall today
Will the sunrise of tomorrow bringing peace in any way
Must the world live in the shadow of atomic fear
Can they win the fight for peace or will they disappear?

So you children of the world, listen to what I say
If you want a better place to live in spread the word today
Show the world that love is still alive you must be brave
Or you children of today are children of the grave.

 

They don't need to be song lyrics or poems, right? If not, try going to the library and looking through books written in that time period. There will be plenty of text in books (obviously!) that might otherwise remain unknown to you.

 

Im from poland ... so i havent got the possibility to lend books about hippies as there is total lack of them in polish libraries, even in my native languege i now i looked for them( im writing my thesis on hippies issues and american culture), and couldnt find heh
