WILDFLOWERS - Clelia Adams
WILDFLOWERS BLOOM WHERE THEY GROW
IN WARM SUNSHINE, OR WHERE THE COLD WINDS BLOW
NOT A CARE FOR YESTERDAY OR TOMORROW
COS WILDFLOWERS BLOOM WHERE THEY GROW
SPRINGTIME BRINGS ON RAINBOW COLOURS EVERYWHERE
MY FACE DRAWS INTO BLOOMS TO BREATHE THE FRAGRANCE THERE
PETALS & DEW DROPS FALL INTO MY HAIR
A HARVEST OF WILDFLOWERS THAT NATURE HAS TO SHARE
THE SEEDS OF LOVE BLOW AROUND THE WORLD EVERYDAY
THEY GROW WILD, THEY GROW TAME, IN THE BREEZE THEY PLAY
WE REAP WHAT WE SOW, THE OLD WISE ONES SAY
MY WANDERING GYPSY SOUL LEADS ME ON MY WAY
WILDFLOWERS BLOOM WHERE THEY GROW
IN WARM SUNSHINE OR WHERE THE COLD WINDS BLOW
REACHING UP TO HEAVEN, MY HEART SURELY KNOWS
A WILDFLOWER BLOOMS WHERE SHE GROWS

WHEN YOU FALL IN LOVE, EVERYTHING'S A WALTZ - Ed Bruce
WE DON'T DANCE THE TWO STEP ANYMORE
ALL WE NEED'S A SMALL PART OF THE FLOOR
THE BAND CAN GO ON PLAYING ALMOST ANYTHING IT WANTS
WHEN YOU FALL IN LOVE, EVERYTHING'S A WALTZ
EYES ARE MEANT FOR LOOKING INTO WAY UP CLOSE
ARMS WERE MEANT FOR HOLDING WHAT YOU WANT THE MOST
LIPS WERE MEANT TO SAY WHAT BODIES FEEL DOWN IN THEIR HEARTS
WHEN YOU FALL IN LOVE, EVERYTHING'S A WALTZ
WE DON'T HEAR THE MUSIC THAT IS BEING PLAYED
ALL WE NEED'S THE MUSIC THAT OUR TWO HEARTS MAKE
BEATING SOFT THREE QUARTER TIME WE JUST SING ALONG
WHEN YOU FALL IN LOVE, EVERYTHING'S A WALTZ

IF I COULD ONLY WIN YOUR LOVE - Louvin Bros
IF I COULD ONLY WIN YOUR LOVE, I'D MAKE THE MOST OF EVERYTHING
I'D PROUDLY WEAR YOUR WEDDING RING
MY HEART WOULD NEVER STRAY, NOR DREAM AWAY
IF I COULD ONLY WIN YOUR LOVE, I'D GIVE MY ALL TO MAKE IT LIVE
YOU'LL NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH I'D GIVE
IF I COULD ONLY WIN YOUR LOVE
OH HOW, CAN I EVER SAY
HOW I CRAVE YOUR LOVE WHEN YOU'VE GONE AWAY
OH HOW, CAN I EVER SHOW
HOW I BURN INSIDE, WHEN YOU HOLD ME TIGHT
IF I COULD ONLY WIN YOUR LOVE, I'D GIVE MY ALL TO MAKE IT LIVE
YOU'LL NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH I'D GIVE
IF I COULD ONLY WIN YOUR LOVE
OH HOW, CAN I EVER SAY
HOW I CRAVE YOUR LOVE WHEN YOU'RE GONE AWAY
OH HOW CAN I EVER SHOW
HOW I BURN INSIDE, WHEN YOU HOLD ME TIGHT
IF I COULD ONLY WIN YOUR LOVE, I'D GIVE MY ALL TO MAKE IT LIVE
YOU'LL NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH I'D GIVE
IF I COULD ONLY WIN YOUR LOVE

MY MOTHER'S WEDDING BAND (Carmella's song) - Clelia Adams
ON MY HAND I WEAR MY MOTHER'S WEDDING BAND
IT CAME WITH HER AS A YOUNG BRIDE TO THIS LAND
LEAVING ALL SHE LOVED & TREASURED FAR BEHIND
HOPING THAT THE FUTURE WOULD BE KIND
WITH TWO SMALL CHILDREN GATHERED 'ROUND HER KNEES
THE LUCKY COUNTRY SEEMED SO FAR ACROSS THE SEA
WHERE WAR NO LONGER TEARS APART HER FAMILY
AND TO THE MAN, HER HEART YEARNS TO SEE
MY MOTHER'S WEDDING BAND REMINDS ME WHO I AM
HER HEART OF GOLD WOULD MELT THE SOUL OF ANY MAN
EMBRACING LIFE AND LAUGHTER WITH HER OPEN HANDS
I BLESS THE DAY IT CAME MY WAY, MY MOTHER'S WEDDING BAND
HAND IN HAND THEY WORKED REAL HARD TO START ANEW
TWO MORE BABIES CAME AND OUR FAMILY GREW
OUR DAYS WERE FILLED WITH FOOD & LAUGHTER FIT TO BURST
& FINE HOME MADE WINE TO MELLOW OUT A THIRST
WIDOWED YOUNG, SHE BRAVED ON TO RAISE US RIGHT
HER COURAGE TAUGHT US HOW WE SHOULD LIVE OUR LIFE
WHEN SHE DIED THE TEARS I CRIED, WOULD NOT LET ME BE
HER VISION CAME IN DREAMS, TO COMFORT ME
DRY YOUR EYES, NO NEED TO CRY LET THE HEARTACHE CEASE,
MY TRUE LOVE CAME TO MEET ME & WE'RE AT PEACE
MY MOTHER'S WEDDING BAND, TELLS ME WHO I AM
HER HEART OF GOLD WOULD MELT THE SOUL OF ANY MAN
EMBRACING LIFE AND LAUGHTER WITH HER OPEN HANDS
I BLESS THE DAY IT CAME MY WAY, MY MOTHER'S WEDDING BAND,
CARMELLA'S WEDDING BAND

DO YOU KNOW - Clelia Adams
DO YOU KNOW, WHEN I SEE THAT LOVELIGHT
SHINING IN YOUR EYES, I COME ALIVE
KNOWING THAT YOU ARE TRULY MINE
DO YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU TEASE ME IN THAT
FUNNY LOVIN' WAY, I HAVE TO SAY
I'LL KEEP YOU SMILING EVERY SINGLE DAY
LIFE CAN BE A MYSTERY, RIDDLED WITH UNCERTAINTY
ONE THING I KNOW FOR SURE
YOU'RE STUCK WITH ME THROUGH ALL OF IT AND MORE
DO YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU SURPRISE ME
WITH YOUR TENDER CHARMS, I'M IN YOUR ARMS
THERE'S NO PLACE IN THIS WORLD I'D RATHER BE
DO YOU KNOW, THE WAY YOU UNDERSTAND
JUST WHO I AM, MAKES YOU MY MAN,
DON'T CHANGE A THING EVEN IF YOU CAN
LIFE IS FULL OF UPS AND DOWNS
& SEARCHING FOR SOME SOLID GROUND
ONE THING I KNOW FOR SURE
YOU'RE STUCK WITH ME THROUGH ALL OF IT AND MORE

ONE LITTLE SONG - Gillian Welch
THERE'S GOTTA BE A SONG LEFT TO SING
COS EVERYBODY CAN'T HAVE THOUGHT OF EVERYTHING
ONE LITTLE SONG THAT AIN'T BEEN SUNG
ONE LITTLE RAG THAT AIN'T BEEN WRUNG OUT COMPLETELY YET,
IT'S GOT A LITTLE LEFT
ONE LITTLE DROP OF FALLIN' RAIN, ONE LITTLE CHANCE TO TRY AGAIN
ONE LITTLE BIRD THAT MAKES IT HOME NOW & THEN
ONE LITTLE PIECE OF ENDLESS SKY, ONE LITTLE TASTE OF CHERRY PIE
ONE LITTLE WEEK IN PARADISE & I START THINKING
THERE'S GOTTA BE A SONG LEFT TO SING
COS EVERYBODY CAN'T HAVE THOUGHT OF EVERYTHING
ONE LITTLE NOTE THAT AIN'T BE USED
ONE LITTLE WORD AIN'T BEEN ABUSED A THOUSAND TIMES
IN A THOUSAND RHYMES
ONE LITTLE DROP ETC.

WE GOTTA LIVE WITH STUFF - Clelia Adams
SHE CRIES ON MY SHOULDER, FEARS OF GETTING OLDER
& BEING LEFT ALL ALONE, HE LEFT HER FOR HER SISTER,
HOW COULD SHE HAVE MISSED IT, YOU'D THINK SHE WOULD HAVE KNOWN
HER CLOTHES DON'T FIT, GOTTA MOVE ON THE WEEKEND
HOW WILL SHE EVER MAKE IT THROUGH
COMES A TIME WHEN YOU JUST GOTTA SAY...HEY
WE GOTTA LIVE WITH STUFF, WE GOTTA GET THROUGH STUFF
& WHEN YOU'VE HAD ENOUGH, LIFE'S BEEN TREATING YOU ROUGH
BETTER FIND A WAY TO TOUGHEN UP, WE GOTTA LIVE WITH STUFF
HE'S CURSING 'BOUT HIS TAX BILL, LIFE SERVED A BITTER PILL
BATTLING AWAY ON HIS OWN, CAR BROKEN DOWN,
THE MISSUS LEFT TOWN, HE'S WEARY DOWN TO THE BONE
TRACTOR GOT BOGGED & FENCES ARE DOWN,
WHAT IN THE WORLD'S HE GONNA DO
COMES A TIME WHEN YOU JUST GOTTA SAY...HEY
THIS WORLD GONE CRAZY, EVERYBODY'S SAYING, & I BELIEVE IT'S TRUE
OCEANS ARE RISING, MULTITUDES ARE DYING,
HEY I SHOULD BE SINGING THE BLUES
SANDS OF TIME ARE FALLING, WINDS OF CHANGE ARE CALLING,
HOW ARE WE GONNA MAKE IT THROUGH
COMES A TIME WHEN YOU JUST GOTTA SAY...HEY
GOTTA DEAL WITH STUFF, GOTTA GET THRU STUFF
WE GOTTA GIVE A STUFF, WE GOTTA LIVE WITH STUFF

HONKY TONK STARDUST COWBOY - Darrel Staedtler
IN HIS COWBOY BOOTS & RHINESTONE SUITS, FLASHY GUITAR
HE MAKES THE ROUNDS OF THE BARS & TOWNS, TRYING TO BE A HILLBILLY STAR
HE'LL PLAY ALL NIGHT, IF YOU TREAT HIM RIGHT, BUY HIM A BEER OR TWO
SO LET THE HONKY TONK STARDUST COWBOY SING FOR YOU
HE SINGS THE COUNTRY TUNES OF BYGONE DAYS
FADED LOVE, SAN ANTONE ROSE & I LOVE YOU A THOUSAND WAYS
NO MATTER WHAT YOUR REQUEST, HE'LL SING IT LOUD AND DO HIS BEST
SO LET THE HONKY TONK STARDUST COWBOY KEEP ON SINGING
SOMETIMES IN HIS MIND, A DREAM UNWINDS, HIS CALL TO FAME
THE BRIGHTER LIGHTS THAT SHINE IN HIS EYES
AS HE'S UP THERE SINGING ON THE STAGE
THOUGH LIFE GOES ON, YOU'LL FIND HIM HOME
WITH A DREAM THAT TURNED OUT WRONG
STILL THE HONKY TONK STARDUST COWBOY SINGS HIS SONG

LOVE AND HAPPINESS - Emmylou Harris & Kimmie Rhodes
HERE'S A WISHING WELL, HERE'S A PENNY FOR
ANY THOUGHT IT IS, THAT MAKES YOU SMILE
EVERY DIAMOND DREAM, EVERYTHING THAT BRINGS
LOVE AND HAPPINESS TO YOUR LIFE
HERE'S A RABBIT'S FOOT, TAKE IT WHEN YOU GO
SO YOU'LL ALWAYS KNOW, YOU'RE SAFE FROM HARM
WEAR YOUR RUBY SHOES, WHEN YOU'RE FAR AWAY
SO YOU'LL ALWAYS STAY HOME IN YOUR HEART
YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE A LUCKY STAR
THAT SHINES BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU ARE
EVEN IN THE DEEPEST DARK, BECAUSE YOUR AIM IS TRUE
AND IF I COULD ONLY HAVE ONE WISH
DARLING, THEN IT WOULD BE THIS, LOVE AND HAPPINESS FOR YOU
HERE'S A SPINNING WHEEL, USE IT ONCE YOU'VE LEARNED
THERE'S A WAY TO TURN THE STRAW TO GOLD
HERE'S A ROSARY, COUNT ON EVERY BEAD
WITH A PRAYER TO KEEP THE HOPE YOU HOLD
YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE A LUCKY STAR ETC.
REPEAT "IF I COULD ONLY HAVE ONE WISH"

SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE - Kieran Kane
SOMETIMES I'M GOOD, SOMETIMES I'M BAD
SOMETIMES I'M HAPPY, OTHER TIMES I MIGHT BE SAD
BUT SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE, IS WHERE YOU'LL NEVER FIND ME
SOMETIMES I'M STRONG, SOMETIMES I'M WEAK
BABY I AIN'T BLIND, BUT THERE'S SOME THINGS I'LL NEVER SEE
BUT SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE, IS WHERE YOU'LL NEVER FIND ME
SOMETIMES I FINISH FIRST, SOMETIMES I'M LAST TO CROSS THE LINE
THERE'S DAYS I MOVE TOO SLOW, THERE'S DAYS I'M REALLY FLYING
SOMETIMES I'M RIGHT, BUT SOMETIMES I'M WRONG
SOMETIMES I'LL BE THERE WITH YOU, OTHER TIMES I'LL BE LONG GONE
BUT SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE, IS WHERE YOU'LL NEVER FIND ME

UNCLE TONY'S UTE - Clelia Adams
WHERE I GREW UP IN A COUNTRY TOWN
NOT MUCH DOIN' WHEN THE RELLOS CAME ROUND
SO GODMOTHERS, UNCLES & FOLK WE KNEW
WOULD PILE IN THE BACK OF UNCLE TONY'S UTE
SO PROUD WAS HE OF HIS NEW MACHINE
NAMED "THE MERCEDES", KEPT SHINY & CLEAN
BUT NOT LONG COMING FROM THE "OLE COUNTRY"
HE COULDN'T PRONOUNCE "UTILITY"
SO IN UNCLE TONY'S UTE, WE THUNDERED ROUND THE TRACKS
HOLDING ON TO ANYTHING, TO JUST STAY IN THE BACK
YOU TOOK YOUR LIFE INTO YOUR HANDS BUT ALWAYS HAD A BALL
THAT OLE HR HOLDEN IS THE LEGEND OF THEM ALL
THAT UTE PULLED OUT STUMPS & POSTS
BOUGHT HOME THE MEAT FOR THE FAMILY ROAST
DELIVERED THE BABIES & THE HOME MADE WINE
KNEW ITS OWN WAY HOME, EVERY TIME
UNCLE TONY'S OLD, BUT THE UTE'S LIKE NEW
WITH LOVING CARE, SHE'S BEEN TRUE BLUE
STILL PRIDE OF PLACE IN THE BACK SHED
WE'RE BACK TO THE 60'S WHEN THE ENGINE REVS

HONKY TONK BLUES - Hank Williams
WELL I LEFT MY HOME ON A RURAL ROUTE, TOLD MY FOLKS I'M STEPPIN' OUT
& GET THE HONKY TONK BLUES, YEAH THE HONKY TONK BLUES
OH LORD I GOT 'EM, I GOT THE HONKY TONK BLUES
WELL I WENT TO A DANCE & WORE OUT MY SHOES
WOKE UP THIS MORNING, WISHING I COULD LOSE
THOSE HONKY TONK BLUES, THE HONKY TONK BLUES
OH LORD I GOT 'EM, I GOT THE JUMPIN' HONKY TONK BLUES
I STOPPED INTO EVERY PLACE IN TOWN, THIS CITY LIFE HAS REALLY GOT ME DOWN
I GOT THE HONKY TONK BLUES ETC.
I'M GONNA TUCK MY WORRIES UNDERNEATH MY ARM
& SCATTER RIGHT BACK TO MY DADDY'S FARM
AND LOSE THEM HONKY TONK BLUES, OH THE HONKY TONK BLUES
OH MAN I GOT 'EM, I GOT THE JUMPIN' HONKY TONK BLUES
I DON'T WANNA BE BOTHERED, WITH THE HONKY TONK BLUES
OH LORD I GOT 'EM, I GOT THE HONKY TONK BLUES

WAYFARING STRANGER - traditional
I AM A POOR WAYFARING STRANGER
TRAVELLING THROUGH THIS WORLD OF WOE
YET THERE'S NO SICKNESS, TOIL OR DANGER
IN THAT BRIGHT WORLD TO WHICH I GO
I'M GOING THERE TO SEE MY FATHER
I'M GOING THERE NO MORE TO ROAM
I'M ONLY GOING OVER JORDAN, I'M ONLY GOING OVER HOME
I KNOW DARK CLOUDS WILL GATHER 'ROUND ME
I KNOW MY WAY IS ROUGH AND STEEP
YET BEAUTEOUS FIELDS LIE JUST BEFORE ME
WHERE GOD'S REDEEMED THEIR VIGILS KEEP
I'M GOING THERE TO SEE MY MOTHER
SHE SAID SHE'S MEET ME WHEN I COME
I'M ONLY GOING OVER JORDAN, I'M ONLY GOING OVER HOME
