Lyr Req: Song on Band's Cahoots called Saved

I'm after a song that appears on the Band album Cahoots. I think it's a Leiber and Stoller song and it's called SAVED. By the way I've looked on the BAND's site it's mentioned but no lyrics. Anybody help

Sorry Susan it isn't but thanks. This one some lines like 'I used to lie, cheat, lie cheat and step on peoples feet' if that helps anyone ?

Oh, OK, THIS ONE?

I found it using the supersarch (Digitrad and Forum Search box, main forum page), with Leiber and Stoller as my search term, and then I did a Find in Page for SAVED.

You can see how quick it was since I came back and wrote all this in just a few minutes.

Magic that's the one !! Can't remember the first part of the verse like that but I'll work round it. Cheers Jim

Jim, if you know it differently, it would be great to add your stuff about it back in that old thread! Or to add chords there, that would be great too.

Hi, Jim

Actually, "Saved" is on the Band's "Moondog Matinee" album, a collection of covers they first started dowing when they were "The Hawks", fist backing up Ronnie Hawkins and later on their own. (It is a stomper, ain't it?)

Susan, thanks for the link to lyrics.

P.S.

Jim, you're right about the first part of the opening verse. On the album, the Band jumped right in on the line: "I used to smoke..."

Elvis did a bit of it on the comeback special, too.

Thanks Mountain Dog for confirming that the Band's version didn't start like that and for correcting the album title. Will learn it anyway and you're right it's a stomping album I had it years ago on vinyl
