Memories of her orange crate art Orange crate table and a rockin' chair Barnyard gate waiting some repair Trust in late and sweet inspiration You could go bust to replace Just what is here by the case

Sail Away

When I desire company I leave my footprints on the sand by a reckless sea Hoping you'd come to me And we'll explore what might have been And leave the shore and give this tired old world a spin When my ship will come in Sun up we'll sail away the day that my ship comes in Fast as the highest mast can take us to you Any old where but here Look at this paradise for two Sky in a sea that's twice as blue It all waits for me and you when my ship comes in You go and get the telephone Give it a real good yank and thank God we're all alone In a tropical zone While we sort out the carribe At every port a third world orders nouvelle cuisine From that aqua marine We'll tell our kind and gentle friends This is time to make amends We'll send them a card that ends "till your ship comes in" Sail away, sail away, just sail away When my ship will come in Sail away, sail away, just sail away When my ship will come in Oh island in the sun What I don't know won't hurt me none when all's said and done When my ship will come in That perfect coast in harmony We'll raise a toast to what's still left of my memory When will my ship come in We'll sail away, sail away, just sail away When my ship will come in We'll sail away, sail away, just sail away

My Hobo Heart

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Whoa no no no no no no I had a love in every town I swore that I would sooner die than ever settle down Me and my hobo heart Me and my hobo heart Now look and see what love has done My feet are rooted to the ground Just when I wanna turn around and run Me and my hobo heart Me and my hobo heart I look down the lonesome highway A lover in every town And I swore that I would far sooner die than Settle down again Then I asked myself a question What places could I go to What road could I take, what trip could I make That wouldn't lead back, that wouldn't lead back To You Ahhhhh Me and my hobo heart And now my travelin' days are through And ridin' horses in the sand Or walkin' with you hand in hand will do Me and my hobo heart Me and my hobo heart Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Whoa no no no no no no

Wings Of A Dove

Rain come down for days makes such thunder This old house can't take that much more And it just might take you and me under Makin' such a great commotion You could hear the clatter Put the pots and pans on the floor And just let it pour In the din-tin-tin-tabulation You can hear the rain is in play The whole wide world in great jubilation Underneath the pitter patter Say it doesn't matter Someone say you feelin' OK And just fly away On the wings of a dove You bring me my love She's singin' so sadly Wings lifting my love She's drifting above The push and the shove On wings of a dove Rain come down to wash away sorrow This whole town is covered in gray God let it rain my nights to tomorrow Someone here in tribulation Say does it matter Someone say you feelin' OK On one rainy day On the wings of a dove She's singin' of love The thing we need badly Things I wish I had When she seems sad I would sing gladly On wings of a dove Do do you Do you Do do you Do you On wings of a dove

Palm Tree And Moon

This is so far from china The star light like to blind ya A lover's way of saying come home soon Put it in a letter Let each star there remind ya It's time for love to find ya A palm tree in the moon When a comet comes out to fall Why on earth do we feel so small Must be heaven that we hear call And in this natural planet I feel like catching your hand Out under our palm tree and moon I put it in a letter How could I love you better And dropped it in a bottle in the sea Put it in a letter I don't know where it went so I sent to Sacramento Said you were meant for me What a time to be talking small But a crime not to talk at all When it's heaven that we hear call There ain't a cloud in the sky No allowin' for why Out under our palm tree and moon Hoo do you Hoo do you Put it in a letter Put it in a letter You were meant for me What a time to be talking small But a crime not to talk at all When it's heaven that we hear call And for us two silhouettes It's just as good as it gets Out under our palm tree and moon

Summer In Monterey

Wasn't so long ago That every year your family Would rent a house from June to Labor Day Summer in Monterey None of us wore no clothes In Monterey our feet were bare Our shorts were all we'd ever wear And I would jump for joy that you were there Take you to the movie show Watching arm in arm Used to hope the film would work it's charm Then You and I we'd saunter home Far behind the crowd Linger longer than your ma and pa had allowed Never in love before We couldn't wait to be alone To beat it to the ocean view cafe That was our hideaway Summer in Monterey Monterey oh Monterey Monterey oh Monterey I would love the crazy world to always stay that way Ocean breeze Breaking seas Out on the rocks around the windy curving bay Summer in Monterey Ocean breeze Breaking seas Out on the rocks around the windy curving bay Summer in Monterey

San Francisco

Time to giddy-up doo-wah diddy-up San Francisco, San Francisco Her lover's arms were open wide Where the gates of golden Waits with charms unfoldin' Hold that cable car up there with pride I gotta ride (ride ride) Giddy-up down to San Francisco, San Francisco Where love is true as time and tide She was seventeen though When I left from reno Like some valentino With my bride there by my side I can't go from Cisco down to Frisco How I'm missin' those days of yore (Eldorado) Miss those frisky women Raw rye whiskey with each kissin' we would explore (Eldorado) For this desperado Was gold in the dust Like many a man in God do I trust Gave up on Eldorado So lost in my lust Where love is not for sale Out on the end of the Trail Time to giddy-up doo-wah diddy-up San Francisco, San Francisco Hope just like a candlestick in flame Sportin' life did change her Shore life rearranger Brought her misfortune and shame Roll on down the California fly-way The highway I have known (I have known) Old mystery sunsets down on water The soul of man unfold Time to giddy-up doo-wah diddy-up San Francisco San Francisco Hope there you'll find love is not for sale Out at the end of the trail Gonna ride, ride, ride, ride Gonna ride Gonna ride

Hold Back Time

D
E
We painted inside and out with just a gallon of joy
Bm
We had the girl then the boy
A
And love was never a toy Just like that old rusty Ford we restored out in back It made that clickety-clack Our new old house by the track At her window was a touch of lavender lace I remember her face Too many rainbows to chase Right through the cracks of the paint come the tracks of the train Scatter like diamonds of rain Down our old blacktop two-lane
D
Hold back time
A
A
G
Don't talk about tomorrow Tell that old clock on the wall He'll just have to call it a day Hold back time When we're in each other's arms We're in each other's arms So hold back time With that old country hymn spinning round in her brain She kept her fancy for play More than for fortune and fame Now when we feel every wheel spinnin' steel on that track We shake the dust off the sack In our old house by the track Hold back time Don't talk about tomorrow Tell that old clock on the wall He'll just have to call it a day Hold back time When we're in each other's arms We're in each other's arms So hold back time Time

My Jeanine

I carried a torch for her in the orchard Apples were last name My Jeanine, my Jeanine Each tree would ignite with blossoms of white And dapple her hair in flame My Jeanine, my Jeanine Jeanine and jean and calico A streak of mean, don't let it show So when she tells her, let her go Her yes may mean no, I love her so We would meander now hand in hand in Our Appalachian clime My Jeanine, my Jeanine We bring in the spring and toss from the swing Along apple blossom time My Jeanine, my Jeanine Remember when life was North Carolina Two bits for cokes and jokes at the diner Time was a magazine My Jeanine My Jeanine, my Jeanine My Jeanine, my Jeanine

She wanted Nat King Cole, he got a jelly roll
C
Whole lotta heart and soul Stack rum and a river ride are rappin' at her door Take her to a picture show she sure ain't seen before She was a debutante, give it just what she want You tell her just where to go, down to the drive in show You be my riverboat Movies is magic Real life is tragic Fundamental though it seems When you're livin' in your dream And you wake up it's over Movies is magic Real life is tragic I regret I gotta say It is time we get away To the movies and magic Cowboy dressed like Indian popped right off that silver screen Sky lit up like a jukebox for a dreamboat delta queen Rain droppin' all around, put up the top, you clown And turn on the Nat King Cole, walk with the rock and roll To the movies and magic Movies is (movies is) magic (magic) Movies is magic Real life is tragic And as time goes by and by You will often wonder why To the day that you die 'Cause movies is magic Movies is magic

This Town Goes Down At Sunset

This town goes down at sunset When the hills start turning red The streets roll up at eight o'clock Everybody goes off to bed Everybody goes off to bed There's someone callin' someone names You can hear a screen door slam A car goes skatin' down the road Everybody gets out of bed Everybody gets out of bed You took the key to my heart's door And you set off on your own I shook it off as a passing phase Everybody must come back home Everybody must come back home This town gets up at daybreak When the hills start turnin' blue A whistle blows a rooster crows Everybody's got things to do Everybody's got things to do
