Songbird

For you
There'll be no more cryin'
For you
The sun will be shinin'
And I feel that when I'm with you it's alright.
I know its right.

To you
I'll give the world.
To you
I'll never be cold.
'Cause I feel when I'm with yu its alright
I know its right

And the songbirds are singing
Like they know the score
And I love you , I love you , I Love you
Like never before

And I wish you all the love in the world.
But most of all I wish it for myself.

And the songbirds keep singing
Like they know the score
And I love , I love you, I love you
Like never before.

And I love you, I love you I love you
Like never before

Sorry Willie

See her dancing see there Willie see how reckless she is
She's a wild one as everyone knows
Why what's wrong Willie why you're cryin' what have I done
Sorry Willie I didn't know you didn't know
And I wouldn't have said all those things that I'd known
That she was your darling your sweetheart your own
Don't ask how well I know her I might lie I don't know
Sorry Willie I didn't know you didn't know
[ guitar - harmonica ]
And I wouldn't have said...
Sorry Willie I didn't know you didn't know

Sound In Your Mind

Well I've been feeling a little bad cause I've been feeling a little better without you
It's a little like rain but it's a lot like a sunny day
And it's hard to explain but the sound of your name don't make music anymore
It's more than a sound of a love that I lost one day
It's a little too late to start thinking about startin' all over
I'd rather stay where I am I can't take another slam in the mind
I've been feeling a little bad cause I've been feeling a little better without you
But remember my love is the sound that you hear in your mind
[ guitar ]
I've been running around even laughing at half of the mem'ries
And you're not hard to remember I just have to think of your name
I've been feeling a little bad...
And remember my love it's the sound that you hear in your mind

South Of The Border

South of the border down Mexico way
That's where I fell in love when stars above came out to play
Now as I wander my thoughts ever stray south of the border down Mexico way
She was a picture in old Spanish lace
And for a tender while I kissed the smile opon her face
For it was Fiesta we were so gay south of the border down Mexico way
And she smiled and she whispered Manana
Never dreaming that we were parting
And I lied and I whispered Manana for our tomorrow never came
South of the border I rode back one day
There in a veil of white by candlelight she knelt to pray
And the mission bells told me that I mustn't stay
South of the border down Mexico way
[ guitar ]
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay

Spanish Eyes

Blue Spanish eyes teardrops are falling from your Spanish eyes
Please please don't cry this is just adios and not goodbye
Soon I'll return bringing you all the love your heart can hold
Please say si si say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me
[ guitar ]

[ Spanish part ]
Soon I'll return...
Please say si si say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me

Spirit

I was a highwayman, along the coach roads I did ride
With sword and pistol by my side
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five
But I am still alive

I was a sailor. I was born upon the tide
And with the sea I did abide
I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow
And when the yards broke off they said that I got
killed
But I am living still

I was a dam builder across the river deep and wide
Where steel and water did collide
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below

They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
But I am still around
I'll always be around and around and around
And around and around

I fly a starship across the Universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain and I'll be back again
And again and again and again and again

Stardust

Sometimes I wonder why I spend
Such lonely nights
Oh baby lonely nights
Dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you
When our love was new, oh baby
And each kiss an inspiration
Now that baby you know was long ago

Oh beside a garden wall
When stars are bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairy tale
A paradise where roses bloom

Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain baby
My stardust melody
Oh memory oh memory oh memory

Staring Each Other Down

You're hangin' on his arm she's holdin' mine a fool must have said love was blind
We're shouting I love you's with people all around and they don't hear one sound
Let her eyes do the talkin' and her eyes do the walkin'
And her eyes do the slipping around staring each other down

And we're both on to how long a slow song would be for us now
This timebomb we're holding is so near exploding right down
So let her eyes do the talkin' and eyes do the walkin'
Her eyes do the slipping around staring each other down
Staring each other down

Stay All Night (stay A Little Longer)

Can't go home if you're going by the mill
Cause the bridge' washed out at the bottom of the hill
Big Creek's up, Little Creek's level,
Plow my corn with a double shovel

(Chorus:)
Stay all night, stay a little longer
Dance all night, dance a little longer
Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner
Don't see why you can't stay a little longer.

Sitting in the window, singing to my love
Slop bucket fell from the window up above
Mule and the grasshopper eatin ice cream
mule got sick, so they laid him on the green

You ought to see my Blue Eyed Sally
She lives way down on Shinbone Alley
Number on the gate, the number on the door
The next house over is the grocery store.

Grab your partner, pat her on the head
If she don't like biscuits, feed her cornbread
Girls around Big Creek, 'bout half grown
Jump on a man like a dog on a bone

Stay Away From Lonely Places

Stay away from lonely places follow the crowd
Stay around familiar faces play the music loud
Be seen at all the parties dress yourself in style
Stay away from lonely places for awhile

Stay away from lonely places
till you learn to live alone
Someone's outstretched arms are waiting
to stay with you at least till dawn
Remember that sorrow prospers in a heart that never smiles
So stay away from lonely places for awhile

Stay away from lonely places
it takes time to learn to live alone
And someone's outstretched arms are waiting
to stay with you at least till dawn
Remember that sorrow prospers in a heart that never smiles
So stay away from lonely places for awhile
