    The Mummers' Dance
    Composer(s): Loreena McKennitt
    Performer(s): Loreena McKennitt
    and multiple other artists



    When in the springtime of the year
    When the trees are crowned with leaves
    When the ash and oak, and the birch and yew
    Are dressed in ribbons fair

    When owls call the breathless moon
    In the blue veil of the night
    The shadows of the trees appear
    Amidst the lantern light

    We've been rambling all the night
    And some time of this day
    Now returning back again
    we bring a garland gay

    Who will go down to those shady groves
    And summon the shadows there
    And tie a ribbon on those sheltering arms
    In the springtime of the year

    The songs of birds seem to fill the wood
    That when the fiddler plays
    All their voices can be heard
    Long past their woodland days

    We've been rambling all the night
    And some time of this day
    Now returning back again
    we bring a garland gay

    And so they linked their hands and danced
    Round in circles and in rows
    And so the journey of the night descends
    When all the shades are gone

    A garland gay we bring you here
    And at your door we stand
    It is a sprout well budded out
    The work of Our Lord's hand

    We've been rambling all the night
    And some time of this day
    Now returning back again
    we bring a garland gay

    Ballad Of Forty Dollars
    Composer(s): Tom T. Hall
    First release by: Tom T. Hall - 1968
    Covered by multiple other artists



    The man who preached the funeral
    Said it really was a simple way to die
    He laid down to rest one afternoon
    And never opened up his eyes
    They hired me and Fred and Joe
    To dig the grave and carry up some chairs
    It took us seven hours
    And I guess we must have drunk a case of beer

    I guess I ought to go and watch them put 'im down
    But I don't own a suit
    And anyway when they start talkin' about
    The fire in Hell, well, I get spooked
    So, I'll just sit here in my truck
    And act like I don't know 'im when they pass
    Anyway, when they're all through
    I've got to go to work and mow the grass

    Well, here they come and who's that
    Ridin' in that big ol' shiny limousine
    Mmh! look at all that chrome, I do believe
    That that's the sharpest thing I've seen
    That must belong to his great uncle
    Someone said he owned a big ol' farm
    When they get parked I'll mosey down
    and look it over, that won't do no harm

    Well, that must be the widow in the car
    And would you take a look at that
    That sure is a pretty dress
    You know some women do look good in black
    Well, he's not even in the ground
    And they say that his truck is up for sale
    They say she took it pretty hard
    But you can't tell too much behind the veil

    Well, listen ain't that pretty
    When the bugler plays the Military "Taps"
    I think that when you's in the war
    They always (hide 'n) play a song like that
    Well, here I am and there they go
    And I guess you'd have to call it my bad luck
    I hope he rests in peace, the trouble is
    The fellow owes me forty bucks

    Christmas Is Composer(s): Percy Faith - Spence Maxwell Performer(s): Percy Faith



    Christmas is sleigh bells, Christmas is sharing
    Christmas is holly, Christmas is caring...

    Christmas is children who just can't go to sleep
    Christmas is mem'ries, the kind you always keep
    Deck the halls and give a cheer
    For all the things that Christmas is each year

    Christmas, Merry Christmas
    When all your wishes come true

    Christmas is carols to warm you in the snow
    Christmas is bedtime where no one wants to go
    All the world is tinsel bright
    So glad to know that Christmas is tonight

    Christmas, Merry Christmas
    When all your wishes come true

    Christmas, Merry Christmas
    May all your wishes come true

    Christmas, Merry Christmas
    May all your wishes come true

    Christmas is sleigh bells, Christmas is sharing
    Christmas is holly, Christmas is caring...

    Christmas is holly, Christmas is caring...

    Hit Crew; Hank Thompson



    There's no place that I'd rather be than right here
    With my red necks, white socks and blue ribbon beer
    The bar-maid is mad 'cause some guy made a pass
    The juke box is playin' there stands the glass
    And the cig-a-rette smoke kind-a hangs in the air
    Red-necks, white socks and blue rib-bon beer

    A cow-boy is cus-sin' the pin-ball ma-chine
    A drunk at the bar is get-tin' nois-y and mean
    And, some guy on the phone says i'll be home soon dear
    Red-necks white socks and blue rib-bon beer

    No we don't fit in with that white col-lar crowd
    We're a lit-tle too row-dy and a little too loud
    There's no place that I'd rath-er be than right here
    With my red-necks white socks and blue rib-bon beer

    The sem-is are pass-ing on the high-way out-side
    The four thir-ty crowd is a-bout to ar-rive
    The sun's go-in' down and we'll all soon be here
    Red-necks, white socks and blue rib-bon beer

    No we don't fit in with that white col-lar crowd
    We're a lit-tle too row-dy and a little too loud
    There's no place that I'd rath-er be than right here

    The Mountains Of Mourne
    Composer(s): William Percy French - Dr. W. Houston Collisson
    Performer(s): Peter Dawson - 1928
    and multiple other artists



    Oh, Mary this London's a wonderful sight
    With people here workin' by day and by night
    They don't sow potatoes, nor barley, nor wheat
    But there's gangs of them diggin' for gold in the street
    At least when I asked them that's what I was told
    So I just took a hand at this diggin' for gold
    But for all that I found there I might as well be
    Where the Mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea

    I believe that when writin' a wish you expressed
    As to how the fine ladies in London were dressed
    Well, if you'll believe me, when asked to a ball
    They don't wear no top to their dresses at all
    Oh, I've seen them meself and you could not in truth
    Say that if they were bound for a ball or a bath
    Don't be startin' them fashions, now Mary McCree
    Where the Mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea

    I've seen England's King from the top of a bus
    And I never knew him, though he means to know us
    And though by the Saxon we once were oppressed
    Still, I cheered, God forgive me, I cheered with the rest
    And now that he's visited Erin's green shore
    We'll be much better friends than we've been heretofore
    When we've got all we want, we're as quiet as can be
    Where the Mountains o' Mourne sweep down to the sea

    You remember young Peter O'Loughlin, of course
    Well, now here he's over here at the head of the Force
    I met him to-day, I was crossin' the Strand
    And he stopped the whole street with one wave of his hand
    And there we stood talking of days that are gone
    While the whole population of London looked on
    But for all these great powers, he's wishful like me
    To be back where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea

    There's beautiful girls here, oh, never you mind
    With beautiful shapes nature never designed
    And lovely complexions all roses and cream
    But let me remark with regard to the same
    That if that those roses you venture to sip
    The colours might all come away on your lip
    So I'll wait for the wild rose that's waitin' for me
    In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea

    She's a devil in disguise
    You can see it in her eyes
    She's telling dirty lies
    She's a devil in disguise
    In disguise

    Now a woman like that all she does is hate you
    She doesn't know what makes a man a man
    She'll talk about the time that she's been with you
    She'll speak your name to everyone she can

    She's a devil in disguise
    You can see it in her eyes
    She's telling dirty lies
    She's a devil in disguise
    In disguise

    Unhappiness has been her close companion
    Her world is full of jealously and doubt
    It gets her off to see a person crying
    She's just the kind that you can do without

    She's a devil in disguise
    You can see it in her eyes
    She's telling dirty lies
    She's a devil in disguise
    In disguise

    Her number always turns up in your pocket
    Whenever you are looking for a dime
    It's all right to call her, but I'll bet you
    The moon is full and you're just wasting time.

    She's a devil in disguise
    You can see it in her eyes
    She's telling dirty lies
    She's a devil in disguise
    In disguise

    Last night I saw Lester Maddox on a TV show
    With some smart-ass New York Jew
    And the Jew laughed at Lester Maddox
    And the audience laughed at Lester Maddox too
    Well, he may be a fool but he's our fool
    If they think they're better than him they're wrong
    So I went to the park and I took some paper along
    And that's where I made this song

    We talk real funny down here
    We drink too much and we laugh too loud
    We're too dumb to make it in no Northern town
    And we're keepin' the niggers down

    We got no-necked oilmen from Texas
    And good ol' boys from Tennessee
    And colleges men from LSU
    Went in dumb - come out dumb too
    Hustlin' 'round Atlanta in their alligator shoes
    Gettin' drunk every weekend at the barbecues
    And they're keepin' the niggers down

    Chorus
    We're rednecks, rednecks
    And we don't know our ass from a hole in the ground
    We're rednecks, we're rednecks
    And we're keeping the niggers down

    Now your northern nigger's a Negro
    You see he's got his dignity
    Down here we're too ignorant to realize
    That the North has set the nigger free

    Yes he's free to be put in a cage
    In Harlem in New York City
    And he's free to be put in a cage in the South-Side of Chicago
    And the West-Side
    And he's free to be put in a cage in Hough in Cleveland
    And he's free to be put in a cage in East St. Louis
    And he's free to be put in a cage in Fillmore in San Francisco
    And he's free to be put in a cage in Roxbury in Boston
    They're gatherin' 'em up from miles around
    Keepin' the niggers down

    I was lonely baby, I couldn't sleep
    The night they tood you from my side
    I was a lonely soul until you became my goal
    And then I saw the spark of love
    And then the stars fell from up above, oh yeah
    I know someday we will meet again
    But I don't k ow exactly where or when
    But baby, if fate has its way
    We'll meet again some other day

    A redneck girl likes to cruise in Daddy's pickup truck
    And a redneck girl plays her heart when she's down on her luck
    Livin' for Friday afternoon
    She's gonna show some ole boy that weekend moon

    And I pray that someday I will find me a redneck girl
    A redneck girl likes to stay out all night long
    She makes sweet rock 'n roll while she listens to the
    She's waiting for that molent of surrender
    Her hands are callous, but her heart is tender

    And I pray that someday I will find me a redneck girl
    Give me a, give me a, give me a redneck girl
    Give me a, give me a, give me a redneck girl

    Give me a, give me a, give me a redneck girl
    Give me a, give me a, give me a redneck girl
    A redneck girl's got her name on the back of her belt
    She got a kiss on the lips for her man and nobody else
    A coyote's howling out on the prairie
    First comes love, then comes marriage

    And I pray that someday I will find me a redneck girl
    Yeah give me a, give me a, give me a redneck girl

    Yééééé...
    Ne lui dis pas
    Qu'il sera tout pour toi
    A ces mots là
    Tu vois, il n'y croit pas
    Non, ne lui dis rien
    Prends ma main
    Non, ne lui dis rien
    C'est très bien
    Oublie tes serments
    Dans ses bras
    C'est comme du printemps
    Tu verras
    La vie se rit des mots
    Quand l'amour frappe au carreau
    Quand l'amour, un jour survient
    Parler ne sert à rien
    Non, ne lui dis pas
    Ne lui dis pas

    Christine Composer(s): Will Ferdy First release by: Will Ferdy - 1966



    Ik heb je weer ontmoet, Christine
    Na al die lange dagen
    Maar deed het ons wel goed, Christine
    Dat wij ons weder zagen

    We hebben niets gezegd, Christine
    Alleen wat dwaze woorden
    Gezocht en onoprecht, Christine
    Die er niet bij behoorden

    Ik heb je niet herkend, ging dan je fierheid wijken
    Je dierf me zelfs niet één moment in het gelaat te kijken
    Waar is dat licht nu heen dat eens je blik deed leven
    En waarom kan je mond alleen van bitterheid nog beven

    Je hebt me niet gemist, Christine
    Heb je me voorgelogen
    Maar daar ik beter wist, Christine
    Heeft mij dat niet bewogen

    Ook jij denkt aan die tijd, Christine
    Dat wij elkander zochten
    Die wondermooie tijd, Christine
    Die wij eens kennen mochten

    Maar jij hebt steeds verwacht dat ik voor jou zou leven
    En daarbij heb je nooit gedacht iets van jezelf te geven
    Ik weet je voelt nu spijt en angst is je aan 't kwellen
    Omdat je in je eenzaamheid het zonder mij moet stellen

    Wij hadden geen geluk, Christine
    Want onze liefdesbanden
    Ze sprongen schrijnend stuk, Christine
    We staan met lege handen

    Maar nu is het te laat, Christine
    Ik kan niet herbeginnen
    Denk niet dat ik je haat, Christine
    Maar 'k ben te leeg vanbinnen

    Vaarwel, Christine

    Red-Headed Stranger
    Composer(s): Edith Lindeman; Carl Stutz
    Performer(s): Willie Nelson;
    and various other artists



    The red-headed stranger from Blue Rock, Montana
    Rode into town one day
    And under his knees was a ragin' black stallion
    And walkin' behind was a bay
    The red-headed stranger had eyes like the thunder
    And his lips, they were sad and tight
    His little lost love lay asleep on the hillside
    And his heart was heavy as night
    Don't cross him, don't boss him
    He's wild in his sorrow
    He's ridin' an' hidin his pain
    Don't fight him, don't spite him
    Just wait till tomorrow
    Maybe he'll ride on again

    A yellow-haired lady leaned out of her window
    An' watched as he passed her way
    She drew back in fear at the sight of the stallion
    But cast greedy eyes on the bay
    But how could she know that this dancin' bay pony
    Meant more to him than life
    For this was the horse that his little lost darlin'
    Had ridden when she was his wife

    Don't cross him, don't boss him
    He's wild in his sorrow
    He's ridin' an' hidin his pain
    Don't fight him, don't spite him
    Just wait till tomorrow
    Maybe he'll ride on again

    The yellow-haired lady came down to the tavern
    An' looked up the stranger there
    He bought her a drink, an' he gave her some money
    He just didn't seem to care
    She followed him out as he saddled his stallion
    An' laughed as she grabbed at the bay
    He shot her so quick, they had no time to warn her
    She never heard anyone say

    "Don't cross him, don't boss him
    "He's wild in his sorrow
    "He's ridin' an' hidin his pain
    "Don't fight him, don't spite him
    "Just wait till tomorrow
    "Maybe he'll ride on again"

    The yellow-haired lady was buried at sunset
    The stranger went free, of course
    For you can't hang a man for killin' a woman
    Who's tryin' to steal your horse
    Tthis is the tale of the red headed stranger
    And if he should pass your way
    Stay out of the path of the ragin' black stallion
    And don't lay a hand on the bay

    Don't cross him, don't boss him
    He's wild in his sorrow
    He's ridin' an' hidin his pain
    Don't fight him, don't spite him
    Just wait till tomorrow
    Maybe he'll ride on again

    The Motorcycle Song
    Composer(s): Arlo Guthrie
    Performer(s): Arlo Guthrie



    I don't want a pickle
    Just want to ride on my motorsickle
    And I don't want a tickle
    'Cause I'd rather ride on my motorsickle
    And I don't want to die
    Just want to ride on my motorcy... cle

    It was late last night the other day
    I thought I'd go up and see Ray
    So l went up and I saw Ray
    There was only one thing Ray could say, was

    I don't want a pickle
    Just want to ride on my motorsickle
    And I don't want a tickle
    'Cause I'd rather ride on my motorsickle
    And I don't want to die
    Just want to ride on my motorcy... cle

    This song is about the time that I was ridin' my motorcycle
    Going down a mountain road, at 150 miles an hour, playin' my guitar
    On one side of the mountain road there was a mountain, and on the other side there was nothin' - there was a cliff in the air

    Now, when you're going down a mountain road at 150 miles an hour you gotta be very careful, especially if you're playin' a guitar
    Especially if that guitar is an acoustic guitar
    Because if it's an acoustic guitar, the wind pressure is greater on the box side than on the neck side, because there's more guitar on the box side
    I wasn't payin' attention...

    Luckily I didn't go into the mountain - I went over the cliff
    I was goin' at 150 miles an hour sideways and 500 feet down at the same time

    I knew it was the end
    I looked down, I said ''Wow! Some trip"
    I thought it... well I knew it was...
    I knew it was my last trip, and in my last remaining seconds in world, I decided to write one last farewell song to the world

    Put a new ink cartridge in my pen
    Took out a piece of paper
    I sat back and I thought awhile
    Then I started writin'
    I don't want a pickle
    Just want to ride on my motorsickle
    And I don't want a tickle
    'Cause I'd rather ride on my motorsickle

    And I don't want to die
    Just want to ride on my motorcy... cle"

    I knew that, it wasn't the best song l ever wrote, but I didn't have time to change it
    I was comin' down mighty fast

    But as you all know, and as fate would have it, I didn't die
    I landed on the top of a police car
    And he died
    I drove away on the road that he was on
    I came into town at a screamin' 175 miles an hour, playin' the motorcycle song

    I came into town, I jumped off my bike, the bike went around the corner by itself, went up on the stand by itself, turned itself off

    I walked over to my friend
    He was standin' there eatin' pickles
    I said "Hi, what's happenin'?"
    He looked at me in the eye and said "Nothin'"

    You gotta sing it with that kind of enthusiasm
    Like you just squashed a cop...

    I don't want a pickle
    Just want to ride on my motorsickle
    And I don't want a tickle
    'Cause I'd rather ride on my motorsickle
    And I don't want to die
    Just want to ride on my motorcy... cle

    Christiansen Composer(s): Jacques Datin - Maurice Vidalin Performer(s): France Gall



    Il était venu de son pays de neige
    Tout droit vers le Sud, sans presque s'arrêter
    Mon Dieu que c'est loin, que c'est loin de la Norvège
    La Méditerranée

    C'était ses yeux verts, et c'était sa guitare
    Qui avaient payé ce voyage de fou
    Quand il en jouait, en lui offrait à boire
    On lui donnait des sous

    Christiansen
    Il savait quelques mots de mauvais français
    Christiansen
    Il savait quelques mots de mauvais anglais
    Et pourtant, je comprenais bien
    Même quand il ne disait rien
    Christiansen

    Le jour où j'irai le rejoindre en Norvège
    Je reconnaîtrai cette maison d'Oslo
    Et ce vieux traîneau qu'il lançait sur la neige
    Comme on lance un bateau

    Je reconnaîtrai la fameuse Christine
    Dont il me parlait pour me faire enrager
    Je ne l'aime pas cette jolie cousine
    Elle l'a trop aimé

    Christiansen
    Il dormait sur la plage entre deux rochers
    Christiansen
    S'il mangeait quelques fois, c'est que j'y pensais
    Et pourtant, il était heureux, oui vraiment il était heureux
    Christiansen

    Il est repartis vers son pays de neige
    Et la plage d'or où l'on s'est tant baignés
    A le sable gris, des plages de Norvège
    Il a tout emporté
    Pour me le redonner
    Quand je le reverrai

    and various other artists



    Old pirates, yes, they rob I
    Sold I to the merchant ships
    Minutes after they took I
    From the bottomless pit
    But my hand was made strong
    By the 'and of the Almighty
    We forward in this generation
    Triumphantly
    Won't you help to sing
    These songs of freedom?
    'Cause all I ever have
    Redemption songs
    Redemption songs

    Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
    None but ourselves can free our minds
    Have no fear for atomic energy
    'Cause none of them can stop the time
    How long shall they kill our prophets
    While we stand aside and look? Ooh!
    Some say it's just a part of it
    We've got to fullfil the book

    Won't you help to sing
    These songs of freedom?
    'Cause all I ever have
    Redemption songs
    Redemption songs
    Redemption songs

    Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
    None but ourselves can free our mind
    Wo! Have no fear for atomic energy
    'Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time
    How long shall they kill our prophets
    While we stand aside and look?
    Yes, some say it's just a part of it
    We've got to fullfil the book
    Won't you help to sing
    These songs of freedom?
    'Cause all I ever had
    Redemption songs
    All I ever had
    Redemption songs
    These songs of freedom
    Songs of freedom

    Chrisje
    Performer(s): Gerard Cox



    Ik denk niet dat 't ooit nog overgaat
    Want anders was ik je allang vergeten
    Wat 'r ook verder te gebeuren staat
    Ik zal wel altijd van je blijven weten
    En aan je moeten denken nu en dan
    Alleen om m'n geheugen op te frissen
    En zeker weten dat 't pijn doen kan
    Chrisje, ik zal je altijd blijven missen

    Natuurlijk stelde 't maar weinig voor
    Zelfs wonderen moeten met de jaren rijpen
    Maar wie heeft als 'ie achttien is dat door
    Ik was te jong om zoiets te begrijpen
    M'n enige, m'n eerste grote vangst
    Hoewel ik nog maar nauwelijks kon vissen
    Je hebt me afgeholpen van m'n angst
    Chrisje, ik zal je altijd blijven missen

    M'n enige, m'n eerste grote vangst
    Hoewel ik nog maar nauwelijks kon vissen
    Je hebt me afgeholpen van m'n angst
    Chrisje, ik zal je altijd blijven missen

    De jaren maakten mettertijd verschil
    Ik heb m'n leven denk ik wel op orde
    De vrouw waarmee ik best graag leven wil
    En de dingen die ik toen nog wilde worden
    Maar desondanks blijft alles relatief
    Omdat ik nooit jouw spoor meer uit kan wissen
    Ik was pas achttien en ik vond je lief Chrisje
    ik zal je altijd blijven missen
