If you wake at Midnight, and hear a horses feet
Brooks,Razaf ,"Fats" Waller
No one to walk with, all by myself
Me and my brother returned to the water
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
How blithe was I each mornin' tae see
They used to tell me, I was building a dream
I don’t know if you can see
You may travel far from your own native home
Away in the forest, afar from the sea
I found my love by the gasworks croft
Once I Lived the life of a millionaire
Come listen you fellows so young and so fine
Raised on songs and stories
Snaefell, Tynwald, Ben Machree
Shotover River your Gold it is waining
Now it's three long years since we made her pay
From a distance the world looks blue and green
There's four of us share this room
Take a Bus, who needs a Car
My Grandmother she at the age of 83
Here, making each day of the year
Well, I went down to the Hiring fair
I'm sitting in the railway station
It's a long and dusty road, its a hot and heavy load
What will he do now that he's a man
I heard he sang a Good Song
T'was on one bright morning, I bid New Orleans...
It's a Lesson too Late for the Learning
It’s of a flash packet, a packet of fame
London Danny is a real bad penny
Hay Marshall was a gentleman
All off to Brighton in a charabang
I am a young Man from the town of Kiandra
May you Never lay your head down
I'm Listening to your idle talk
Sundays as a rule us kids went to Sunday School
If I take you dancing down the streets
When I was young me Father said to me
He was a pal, and a friend always
If you could read my mind
As I was walking home one evening
True you ride the finest horse I have ever seen
I never saw the morning 'till I stayed up all night
Are you going to Scarborough fair
As I went out one May morning
Traditional (Loreena McKennitt)
I sowed the seeds of love
Walking all the day, near tall towers
Have you seen the old Man
Move over here, come on sit down beside me
About the life of Dylan Thomas
Takes a glass of Tequila to raise up my spirits
I am a simple and ordinary man
When you shook your long hair down
He sits on the corner of Bevington bush
Fred Fisher / Doris Fisher
Why do you whisper, green grass?
Bernie Taupin / Elton John
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
When you're down and troubled
Specially produced CD -now out of print
