    The Scottish Soldier
    (Traditional)



    There was a soldier, a Scottish soldier
    Who wandered far away and soldiered far away
    There was none bolder, with good broad shoulder
    He's fought in many a fray, and fought and won
    He'd seen the glory and told the story
    Of battles glorious and deeds neforious
    But now he's sighing, his heart is crying
    To leave these green hills of Tyrol
    Because these green hills are not highland hills
    Or the island hills, the're not my land's hills
    And fair as these green foreign hills may be
    They are not the hills of home

    And now this soldier, this Scottish soldier
    Who wandered far away and soldiered far away
    Sees leaves are falling and death is calling
    And he will fade away, in that far land
    He called his piper, his trusty piper
    And bade him sound a lay... a pibroch sad to play
    Upon a hillside, a Scottish hillside
    Not on these green hills of Tyrol

    And so this soldier, this Scottish soldier
    Will wander far no more and soldier far no more
    And on a hillside, a Scottish hillside
    You'll see a piper play his soldier home
    He'd seen the glory, he'd told his story
    Of battles glorious and deeds victorious
    The bugles cease now, he is at peace now
    Far from those green hills of Tyrol

    Rhymes And Reasons
    Composer(s): John Denver
    Performer(s): John Denver; Peter, Paul and Mary



    So you speak to me in sadness and the coming of the winter
    fear that is within you now that seems to never end
    and the dreams that have escaped you and the hope that you've forgotten
    and you tell me that you need me now and you want to be my friend
    and you wonder where we're going, where's the rhyme, where's the reason
    and it's you cannot accept it is here we must begin
    to seek the wisdom of the children
    and the graceful way of flowers in the wind
    For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers
    their laughter and their loveliness would clear a cloudy day
    Like the music of the mountains and the colours of the rainbow
    they're a promise of the future and the blessing for today
    Though the cities start to crumble and the towers fall around us
    the sun is slowly fading and it's colder than the sea
    it is written: From the desert to the mountains they shall lead us
    by the hand and by the heart they will comfort you and me
    In their innocence and trusting, they will teach us to be free
    For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers
    their laughter and their loveliness would clear a cloudy day
    And the song that I am singing is a prayer to unbelievers
    come and stand beside us we can find a better way

    The Scotsman
    Composer(s): Mike Cross
    Performer(s): Bryan Bowers
    and multiple other artists



    Well, a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar one evening fair
    And one could tell by how he walked that he'd drunk more than his share
    He fumbled 'round until he could no longer keep his feet
    And he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

    Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh
    Ring di diddly ay oh
    And he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

    About that time two young and lovely girls just happend by
    One says to the other with a twinkle in her eye
    "See yon sleeping Scotsman, so strong and handsome built?
    I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt!"

    Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh
    Ring di diddly ay oh
    And he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

    They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be
    Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
    And there, behold, for them to view beneath his Scotish skirt
    Was nothin' more than God had graced him with upon his birth

    Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh
    Ring di diddly ay oh
    And he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

    They marvelled for a moment, then one said: "We must be gone
    Let's leave a present for our friend before we move along"
    As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon tied into a bow
    Around the bonnie star the Scot's kilt did lift and show

    Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh
    Ring di diddly ay oh
    And he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

    Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call, and stumbled towards the trees
    Behind the bush he lifts his kilt, and gawks at what he sees
    And in a startled voice he says, to what's before his eyes
    "Oh, lad I don't know where ye been, but I see ye won first prize!"

    Ring ding diddle iddle ay dee oh
    Ring di diddly ay oh
    And he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

    Coca Cola Cowboy
    Composer(s): Sam Atchley; Bud Dain; Steve Dorff; Sandy Pinkard
    Performer(s): Mel Tillis



    I called collect on the phone
    You say you're tired and alone
    But it sounds like someone else is lying there
    She said don't call me no more
    Don't you knock on my door
    It's too late now, and I know you'll never change
    She said....

    You're just a Coca Cola cowboy
    You got an Eastwood smile, and Robert Redford hair
    But you walked across my heart like it was Texas
    And you taught me how to say I just don't care

    She said just leave me alone
    And let me hang up this phone
    'Cause he'll see me cry, and think I still love you
    Please don't call me no more
    I changed the locks on my door
    It's time you understood that we are through

    She said....
    You're just a Coca Cola cowboy
    You got an Eastwood smile, and Robert Redford hair
    But you walked across my heart like it was Texas
    And you taught me how to say I just don't care

    She said...
    You're just a Coca Cola cowboy
    You got an Eastwood smile, and Robert Redford hair
    But you walked across my heart like it was Texas
    And you taught me how to say I just don't care

    Yes she taught me how to say I just don't care

    Rhumboogie
    Composer(s): Hughie Prince; Don Raye
    Performer(s): The Andrews Sisters;
    and various other artists



    All Harlem's got a brand new rhythm
    And it's burning up the dance floors
    Because it's so hot
    They took a little rhumba rhythm
    And they added boogie-woogie
    And-a look what they've got

    Rhumboogie
    Rhumboogie-woogie
    It's Harlem's new creation
    With a Cuban syncopation
    It's a killer

    Rhumboogie
    Rhumboogie-woogie
    The native rhythm haunts you
    It's barbaric and it taunts you
    It's a killer

    Just plant your both feet on each side
    Let both your hips and shoulders glide
    Then throw your body back and ride
    There's nothing like...

    Rhumboogie
    Rhumboogie-woogie
    In Harlem or Havana
    You can kiss the old Savanna
    It's a killer

    Oh, beat me daddy, eight-to-the-bar

    Rhumboogie
    Rhumboogie-woo-oogie
    It's Harlem's new creation
    With a Cuban syncopation
    It's a killer

    Rhumboogie
    Rhu-umboogie-woo-oogie
    The native rhythm haunts you
    It's barbaric and it taunts you
    It's a killer

    Just plant you toes and both feet on the side
    Let both your hips and shoulders glide
    Then throw your body back and ride
    Think a little of
    The rhumba
    The boogie
    The woogie
    Then put them
    Both all together
    You have rhumboogie...

    Then all together sing rhumboogie
    Rhumboogie-woogie
    Rhumboogie
    In Harlem or Havana
    It'll kiss the old Savanna
    It's a killer
    It's a killer this rhumboogie

    Rhumboogie
    Rhumboogie
    Rhumboogie-woogie-woogie-woogie-woogie
    Do-do-do-do-diddleyada-do-diddleyada-do-do-dee
    There's nothing like rhumboogie!

    Well, I'm the same old girl that I used to be
    I haven't changed at all
    Same old walk, same old talk
    That would run you up the wall
    Same old face, same old smile
    Same old baby blues
    And I'm still doin' the Rhumba, baby
    I'm still the girl for you

    I'm still doin' the Rhumba, baby
    I can't seem to quit
    If my mama catches us doin' the Rhumba
    My mama would just a-pitch a fit
    But I can't help myself
    It's much bigger than me
    If I were you, I would hang onto
    A Rhumba girl like me

    Well, there's lotsa girls on a Florida night
    With a lot slicker steps than me
    The Boogaloo, the Funky Broadway
    Are such a pretty sight to see
    My step might be old-fashioned
    But that's just fine with me
    Cause I got a couple of Rhumba steps
    That I think you'd like to see

    I'm still doin' the Rhumba, baby

    Coat Of Many Colors
    Composer(s): Dolly Parton
    Performer(s): Dolly Parton
    and various other artists



    Back through the years
    I go wonderin' once again
    Back to the seasons of my youth
    I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
    And how my momma put the rags to use
    There were rags of many colors
    Every piece was small
    And I didn't have a coat
    And it was way down in the fog
    Momma sewed the rags together
    Sewin' every piece with love
    She made my coat of many colors
    That I was so proud of
    As she sewed, she told a story
    From the bible, she had read
    About a coat of many colors
    Joseph wore and then she said
    Perhaps this coat will bring you
    Good luck and happiness
    And I just couldn't wait to wear it
    And momma blessed it with a kiss

    Chorus:

    My coat of many colors
    That my momma made for me
    Made only from rags
    But I wore it so proudly
    Although we had no money
    I was rich as I could be
    In my coat of many colors
    My momma made for me

    So with patches on my britches
    Holes in both my shoes
    In my coat of many colors
    I hurried off to school
    Just to find the others laughing
    And making fun of me
    In my coat of many colors
    My momma made for me

    And oh I couldn't understand it
    For I felt I was rich
    And I told them of the love
    My momma sewed in every stitch
    And I told 'em all the story
    Momma told me while she sewed
    And how my coat of many colors
    Was worth more than all their clothes

    But they didn't understand it
    And I tried to make them see
    That one is only poor
    Only if they choose to be
    Now I know we had no money
    But I was rich as I could be
    In my coat of many colors
    My momma made for me
    Made just for me

    Rhinestone Cowboy
    Composer(s): Larry Weiss
    Performer(s): Glen Campbell



    I've been walkin' these streets so long
    Singin' the same old song
    I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
    Where hustle's the name of the game
    And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
    There's been a load of compromisin'
    On the road to my horizon
    But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me

    Like a rhinestone cowboy
    Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
    Like a rhinestone cowboy
    Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
    And offers comin' over the phone

    Well, I really don't mind the rain
    And a smile can hide all the pain
    But you're down when you're ridin' the train that's takin' the long way
    And I dream of the things I'll do
    With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe
    There'll be a load of compromisin'
    On the road to my horizon
    But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me

    Like a rhinestone cowboy
    Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
    Rhinestone cowboy
    Gettin' cards and letters from people I don't even know
    And offers comin' over the phone

    Like a rhinestone cowboy
    Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo

    Rhinestone cowboy
    Gettin' cards and letters from people I don't even know

    But there is rain in London
    Because I’m away from you

    I’ve been a fool to run away
    To say that I’ve done away with love
    Although the earth should swallow me
    Your face would follow me forever

    The scene changes
    My ship at last is home bound
    I’ll travel fast for I’ve found
    I’ll always belong to you

    Coal Tattoo
    Composer(s): Billy Edd Wheeler
    Originally performed by: The Kingston Trio
    Covered by various other artists



    Travelin' down that coaltown road
    Listen to those rubber tires whine
    Goodbye to Buckeye and White Sycamore
    I'm leavin' you behind
    I've been a coal man all my life
    Layin' down track in the hole
    Got a back like an ironwood bent by the wind
    Blood veins blue as the coal
    Somebody said "That's a strange tattoo
    You have on the side of your head"
    I said "That's a blue print, left by the coal
    Just a little more and I'd be dead"
    And I love the rumble and I love the dark
    I love the cool of the slate
    But it's on down the new road lookin' for a job
    It's the travelin' and lookin' I hate
    I've stood for the union, walkin' the line
    Fought against the company
    Stood for the U. M. W. of A.
    Now who's gonna stand for me?
    I got no house and I got no pay
    Just got a worried soul
    And this blue tattoo on the side of my head
    Left by the number nine coal
    Someday when I'm dead and gone
    To Heaven, the land of my dreams
    I won't have to worry on losin' my job
    To bad times 'n big machines
    I ain't gonna pay my money away
    For pensions and hospital plans
    I'm gonna pick coal where the blue heavens roll
    And sing with the angel bands

    Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac;
    and various other artists



    Rhiannon rings like a bell thru the night
    And wouldn't you love to love her
    She rules her life like a bird in flight
    And who will be her lover...

    All your life you've never seen
    A woman--taken by the wind
    Would you stay if she promised you heaven
    Will you ever win...

    She is like a cat in the dark
    And then she is the darkness
    She rules her life like a fine skylark
    And when the sky is starless

    All your life you've never seen
    A woman--taken by the wind
    Would you stay if she promised you heaven
    Will you ever win...

    Dreams unwind
    Love's a state of mind

    The Scarecrow
    Composer(s): Syd Barrett
    Performer(s): Pink Floyd



    The black and green scarecrow
    As ev'ryone knows
    Stood with a bird on his hat
    And straw everywhere, he didn't care

    He stood in a field where barley grows

    His head did no thinking
    His arms didn't move
    Except when the wind cut up rough
    And mice ran around on the ground

    He stood in a field where barley grows

    The black and green scarecrow
    Is sadder than me
    But now he's resigned to his fate
    'Cause life's not unkind, he doesn't mind

    He stood in a field where barley grows

    Coal Miner's Daughter
    Composer(s): Loretta Lynn
    Performer(s): Loretta Lynn



    Well, I was born a coal miner's daughter
    In a cabin on a hill in Butcher Holler
    We were poor, but we had love
    That's the one thing that daddy made sure of
    He shoveled coal to make a poor man's dollar

    My daddy worked all night in the Vanleer coal mine
    All day long in the field a-hoin' corn
    Mommie rocked the babies at night
    And read the Bible by the coal-oil light
    And ever'thing would start all over come break of morn'

    Daddy loved and raised eight kids on a miner's pay
    Mommie scrubbed our clothes on a washboard ever' day
    Why, I've seen her fingers bleed
    To complain there was no need
    She'd smile in Mommie's understanding way

    In the summertime we didn't have shoes to wear
    But in the wintertime we'd all get a brand new pair
    From a mail order catalog
    Money made from sellin' a hog
    Daddy always managed to get the money somewhere

    Yeah!, I'm proud to be a coal miner's daughter
    I remember well - the well where I drew water
    The work we done was hard
    At night we'd sleep 'cause we were tired
    I never thought of ever leaving Butcher Holler

    Well, a lot of things have changed since way back then
    And it's so good to be back home again
    Not much left but the floor
    Nothing lives here anymore
    Except the mem'ries of a coal miner's daughter

    Rhapsody In The Rain
    Composer(s): Lou Christie; Twyla Herbert
    Performer(s): Lou Christie



    Baby the raindrops play for me
    A lonely rhapsody 'cause on our first date
    We were makin' out in the rain

    And in this car our love went much too far
    It was exciting as thunder
    Tonight I wonder where you are

    Refrain:
    The windshield wipers seemed to say
    "Together - together - together - together"
    And now they are saying
    "Oh, ne...ver, ne...ver"
    Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, baby

    Chorus:
    Rhapsody in the rain
    Rhapsody in the rain
    Angels keep cryin' for me (don't... stop)
    Angels keep cryin' for me (don't... stop)

    Baby, I'm parked outside your door
    Remember makin' love, makin' love, we were makin' love in the storm
    (sha-la-la-la la-la)

    Refrain 2:
    And then a flash from above
    Lightning - lightning - lightning - lightning
    Just li-ike our love
    It was exciting, exciting
    Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, baby

    (repeat chorus)

    Yesterday, bring back yesterday

    (repeat chorus)

    The Saxophone Song
    Composer(s): Kate Bush
    First release by: Kate Bush - 1978



    You'll find me in a Berlin bar
    In a corner brooding
    You know that I go very quiet
    When I'm listening to you

    There's something very special indeed
    In all the places where I've seen you shine, boy
    There's something very real in how I feel, honey

    It's in me
    It's in me
    And you know it's for real
    Tuning in on your saxophone
    Doo-bee-doo-bee-doo...

    The candle burning over your shoulder is throwing
    Shadows on your saxophone, a surly lady in tremor
    The stars that climb from her bowels
    Those stars make towers on vowels

    You'll never know that you had all of me
    You'll never know the poetry you've stirred in me
    Of all the stars I've seen that shine so brightly
    I've never known or felt in myself so rightly

    It's in me
    It's in me
    And you know it's for real
    Tuning in on your saxophone
    Doo-bee-doo-bee-doo...

    Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne
    Whoa-ho-ho here I am on my knees again
    I'll do anything just to make it right
    Say you'll understand, oh I know you can
    C'mon Marianne

    No matter what people say
    it didn't happen that way
    She was a passing fling
    and not a permanent thing
    Say you'll understand, oh I know you can
    C'mon Marianne (baby)
    C'mon Marianne (baby)
    C'mon Marianne (baby)
    Say you can understand
    My Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne

    Well now your big brown eyes are all full of tears
    From the bitterness of my cheatin' years
    So I hang my head, wish that I was dead
    C'mon Marianne (baby)
    C'mon Marianne (baby)
    C'mon Marianne (baby)
    Say you can understand
    My Marianne (baby)
    C'mon Marianne (baby)
    C'mon Marianne (baby)
    Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne
