On the Road Again
On the road again
I just can’t wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin’ music with my friends
And I can’t wait to get on the road again
On the road again
Goin’ places that I’ve never been
Seein’ things that I may never see again
And I can’t wait to get on the road again
Here we go, on the road again
Like a band of Gypsies we go down the highway
We’re the best of friends
Insisting that the world keep turnin’ our way
And our way is on the road again
I just can’t wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin’ music with my friends
And I can’t wait to get on the road again, break free
And I can’t wait to get on the road again
Under the Boardwalk
Oh when the sun beats down and burns the tar up on the roof
And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fire proof
Under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah
On a blanket with my baby is where I’ll be
out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) we’ll be havin’ some fun
(Under the boardwalk) people walking above
(Under the boardwalk) we’ll be falling in love
Under the boardwalk, boardwalk
In the park you hear the happy sound of a carousel
Mm-mm, you can almost taste the hot dogs and french fries they sell
Under the boardwalk, down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby is where I’ll be
out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) we’ll be havin’ some fun
(Under the boardwalk) people walking above
(Under the boardwalk) we’ll be falling in love
Under the boardwalk, boardwalk
Ooh, under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah
On a blanket with my baby is where I’ll be
out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) we’ll be havin’ some fun
(Under the boardwalk) people walking above
(Under the boardwalk) we’ll be falling in love
Under the boardwalk, boardwalk

Rainbow Connection
Why are there so many songs about rainbows
And what’s on the other side
Rainbows are visions
But only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hide
So we’ve been told
And some choose to believe it
I know they’re wrong, wait and see
Some day we’ll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers, and me
Who said that every wish
Would be heard and answered
When wished on the morning star
Somebody thought of that
And someone believed it
And look what it’s done so far
What’s so amazing
That keeps us stargazing
And what do we think we might see
Someday we’ll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers, and me
All of us under its spell, we know that it’s probably magic
Have you been half asleep?
And have you heard voices?
I’ve heard them calling my name
Is this the sweet sound
That called the young sailors?
The voice might be one in the same
I’ve heard it too many times to ignore it
It’s something that I’m supposed to be
Someday we’ll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me
La da da di da da dum da duh da da dum di da ohhh
Didn’t Leave Nothing But The Baby

Go to sleep little babe
Go to sleep little babe
Your momma’s gone away and your daddy’s gonna stay
Didn’t leave nobody but the baby
Go to sleep little babe
Go to sleep little babe
Everybody’s gone in the cotton and the corn
Didn’t leave nobody but the baby
You’re a sweet little babe
You’re a sweet little babe
Honey in the rock and the sugar don’t stop
Gonna bring a bottle to the baby
Don’t you weep pretty babe
Don’t you weep pretty babe
She’s long gone with her red shoes on
Gonna need another loving babe
Go to sleep little babe
Go to sleep little babe
You and me and the devil makes three
Don’t need no other lovin’ babe
Go to sleep little babe
Go to sleep little babe
Come lay bones on the alabaster stones
And be my everlovin babe
Four Strong Winds
Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don’t change come what may
But our good times are all gone
And I’m bound for moving on
I’ll look for you if I’m ever back this way
Think I’ll go out to Alberta
Weather’s good there in the fall
I got some friends that I can go to working for
Still I wish you’d change your mind
If I asked you one more time
But we’ve been through that a hundred times or more
Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don’t change come what may
But our good times are all gone
And I’m bound for moving on
I’ll look for you if I’m ever back this way
If I get there before the snow flies
And if things are goin’ good
You could meet me if I sent you down the fare
But by then it would be winter
There ain’t too much for you to do
And those winds sure can blow cold way out there
Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don’t change come what may
But our good times are all gone
And I’m bound for moving on
I’ll look for you if I’m ever back this way
Up above my head
Up above my head
(Up above my head)
I hear music in the air
(I hear music in the air)

Up above my head
(Up above my head)
I hear music in the air
(I hear music in the air)

Goodnight Irene
Foxes sleep in the forest
Lions sleep in their dens
Goats sleep on the mountainside
And piggies sleep in their pens

Chorus:
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
I’ll see you in my dreams

Whales sleep in the ocean
Zebras sleep on land
Hippos sleep by the riverside
And camels sleep on sand

(Repeat Chorus)

Coyotes sleep in the canyon
A birdie sleeps in a tree
And when it’s time for me to rest
My bed’s just the place for me.

Down by the Riverside
 
I’m gonna lay down my sword and shield
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
I’m gonna lay down my sword and shield
Down by the riverside
I’m gonna study, study, war no more
I ain’t gonna study war no more
Ain’t gonna study war no more
I ain’t gonna study war no more
I ain’t gonna study war no more
Ain’t gonna study war no more
I ain’t gonna study war no more
I’m gonna lay down my heavy load
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
I’m gonna lay down my heavy load
Down by the riverside
Gonna study war no more
I ain’t gonna study war no more
Ain’t gonna study war no more
I ain’t gonna study war no more
I ain’t gonna study war no more
Ain’t gonna study war no more
I ain’t gonna study war no more
Ain’t gonna study war no more
Ain’t gonna study war no more
Ain’t gonna study war no more
Ain’t gonna study war no more
Ain’t gonna study war no more
Ain’t gonna study war no more
Yes, laid down ?
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
I’m gonna lay down my heavy load
Down by the riverside
God is tiding on no more
No more
This Train Is Bound for Glory
 
We’re gonna ride the Bible train now
No some won’t ride, but we’re going get on the Bible train
Some ride but not all the way
The Bible train is in the yard now and it’s waiting and oh it looks so good
But you might get bored and impatient waiting like those two good brothers over there
They pass around the bottle in the car before they got on the train
Just want to take one more for the road and then, that leads to something else
Well they ain’t on the train no more and maybe 9 or 10 got off with them
There’s a sister in the church and she says to her friend
Your husband works at night and so does mine, why don’t we just
Get together sometime when they’re gone and go downtown and find us some action,
Well then they gotta get off the Bible train.
And then another man he’s sitting over there looking at a woman in the corner
And he’s gives her that eye, you know and they
Meet later, secretly, so they got to get off,
This train’s got a rule against adultery.
And while all this is happening the train is getting ready to go,
But there’s a lot more to get off than different reasons
Just before the train pulls out,
But listen its starting to move now,
Listen to it.
Here we go’.
As it leaves the man on the caboose with a long white beard says,
This train is bound for gory, this train,
This train is bound for glory, this train,
This train is bound for glory nobody rides it but the righteous and holy,
This train is bound for glory, this train
This train is a free train, this train,
This train is a free train, this train,
This train is a free train,
Everybody rides in Jesus’ name
This train is a free train, this train,
This train it don’t pull no liars, this train
This train don’t pull no liars, this train
This train don’t pull no liars,
No false pretenders and no backbiters
This train don’t pull no liars, this train.
This train is a clean train, this train
This train is a clean train, this train
This train is a clean train,
Everybody rides it in Jesus’ name
This train is a clean train, this train
Do you want to ride it children, this holy train’
Do you want to ride it children, this righteous train’
Get on board
Get on board
Get on board
Get on board this holy train
Get on board
Get on board
Get on board this holy train
“Beetles In The Bog”

When the sun goes down
With the one you love
Out in the sky
Beetles in the bog

If the tide is high
Let the spirit fly
Out of the sky
Beetles in the bog

When Your Smiling
 
When you’re smilin’, when you’re smilin’
The whole world smiles with you
When you’re laughin’, oh when you’re laughin’
The sun comes shinin’ through
But when you’re cryin’, you bring on the rain
So stop that sighin’, be happy again
Keep on smilin’, ’cause when you’re smilin’
The whole world smiles with you
But when you’re cryin’, your bring on the rain
So stop your sighin’, be happy again
Keep on smilin’, ’cause when you’re smilin’, baby
The whole world smiles with you
