    The Sierry Petes
    Composer(s): Gail Gardner - Bill Simon
    Performer(s): Don Edwards



    Away up high in the Sierry Petes
    Where the yeller pines grows tall
    Ole Sandy Bob an' Buster Jig
    Had a rodeer camp last fall

    Oh, they taken their hosses and runnin' irons
    And mabbe a dawg or two
    An' they 'lowed they'd brand all the long-yered calves
    That come within their view

    And any old doggie that flapped long yeres
    An' didn't bush up by day
    Got his long yeres whittled an' his old hide scorched
    In a most artistic way

    Now one fine day ole Sandy Bob
    He throwed his seago down
    "I'm sick of this cow-pyrography
    And I 'lows I'm a-goin' to town"

    So they saddles up an' hits 'em a lope
    Fer it warnt no sight of a ride
    And them was the days when a Buckeroo
    Could ile up his inside

    Oh, they starts her in at the Kaintucky Bar
    At the head of Whisky Row
    And they winds up down by the Depot House
    Some forty drinks below

    They then sets up and turns around
    And goes her the other way
    An' to tell you the Gawd-forsaken truth
    Them boys got stewed that day

    As they was a-ridin' back to camp
    A-packin' a pretty good load
    Who should they meet but the Devil himself
    A-prancin' down the road

    Sez he, "You ornery cowboy skunks
    You'd better hunt yer holes
    Fer I've come up from Hell's Rim Rock
    To gather in yer souls"

    Sez Sandy Bob, "Old Devil be damned
    We boys is kinda tight
    But you ain't a-goin' to gather no cowboy souls
    'Thout you has some kind of a fight"

    So Sandy Bob punched a hole in his rope
    And he swang her straight and true
    He lapped it on to the Devil's horns
    An' he taken his dallies too

    Now Buster jig was a riata man
    With his gut-line coiled up neat
    So he shaken her out an' he built him a loop
    An' he lassed the Devil's hind feet

    Oh, they stretched him out an' they tailed him down
    While the irons was a-gettin hot
    They cropped and swaller-forked his yeres
    Then they branded him up a lot

    They pruned him up with a de-hornin' saw
    An' they knotted his tail fer a joke
    They then rid off and left him there
    Necked to a Black-Jack oak

    If you're ever up high in the Sierry Petes
    An' you hear one Hell of a wail
    You'll know it's that Devil a-bellerin' around
    About them knots in his tail

    Cold Enough To Snow
    Performer(s): Jennifer Warnes



    Where did summer go?
    How'd I miss the change of season?
    All at once the wind blows rough
    It's cold enough to snow

    In the street below
    People laugh, they got no reason
    Don't they know it's cold enough to snow

    When we were together
    And you were staying
    Funny but the weather still felt like May in did-December
    Now the chill winds blow, sunny skies they're only teasing
    You won't show, it's cold enough to snow

    On the radio, there's a man says
    'it ain't freezing'
    What's he know? He didn't watch you go

    Now the sun can't shine
    If it wants to, fine
    But it's cold enough to snow

    Ridin' My Thumb To Mexico
    Composer(s): Johnny Rodriguez
    Performer(s): Johnny Rodriguez;
    Bluegrass Etc.; Bill Emerson



    This old highway seems so lonesome when you're going where you've been
    And the lonesome song will make you cry time and time again
    If I had listened to a friend of mine ten years ago today
    I'd have a better job than what I've got today

    But the billboards on the highway and the brake-lights on the cars
    Make me jump out on the highway with my bag and my guitar
    If she comes or if she goes it doesn't matter anymore
    'cause I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico

    Chorus: Ridin' my thumb to Mexico
    Well it don't matter when or how I go
    I'll ride this thumb till I see her again
    So I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico

    Well the reason why she left me's not the reason that I'm here
    I'm a travellin' kind of man just need a change of atmosphere
    If there's any place I haven't been at all that's where I'll go
    So I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico

    The Sidewalks Of New York
    Performer(s): J.W. Myers
    and multiple other artists



    Down in front of Casey's
    Old brown wooden stoop
    On a summer's evening
    We formed a merry group
    Boys and girls together
    We would sing and waltz
    While the "Ginnie" played the organ
    On the sidewalks of New York

    East side, West side
    All around the town
    The tots sang 'Ring-a-Rosie'
    'London Bridge is falling down!
    Boys and girls together
    Me and Mamie O'Rorke
    Tripped the light fantastic
    On the sidewalks of New York

    That's where Johnny Casey
    And little Jimmy Crowe
    With Jakey Krause the baker
    Who always had the dough
    Pretty Nellie Shannon
    With a dude as light as cork
    First picked up the waltz step
    On the sidewalks of New York

    East side, West side
    All around the town
    The tots sang 'Ring-a-Rosie'
    'London Bridge is falling down!
    Boys and girls together
    Me and Mamie O'Rorke
    Tripped the light fantastic
    On the sidewalks of New York

    Things have changed since those times
    And some are up in "G"
    Others are wand'rers
    But all feel just like me
    They would part with all they've got
    Could they but once more walk
    With their best girl and have a twirl
    On the Sidewalks of New York

    East side, West side
    All around the town
    The tots sang 'Ring-a-Rosie'
    'London Bridge is falling down!
    Boys and girls together
    Me and Mamie O'Rorke
    Tripped the light fantastic
    On the sidewalks of New York

    Composer(s): Gary Moore
    Performer(s): Gary Moore



    So many times you tried to take the best of me
    So many times, now you're gonna take the rest of me
    Better look at what you're doing before it's too late
    It's a fine line you're treadin' between love and hate
    There'll be a cold day in hell
    before I'm coming back to you

    So many times you tried to play a dead end game
    Yes, you did
    I tried to tell you, but you'd never wanna take the blame
    Now you've pushed me to the limit, and I can't take no more
    You'd better take one last look before I'm out the door
    There'll be a cold day in hell
    before I'm coming back to you

    You never listened when I told you
    that you were way out of line
    Too busy talkin' to listen
    accusing me of telling lies

    So many times you tried to get the best of me
    Yes, you did
    So many times, but now you're gonna take the rest of me
    Well, it's too late for sorry and it's too late for tears
    Better take one last look before I disappear
    There'll be a cold day in hell
    before I'm coming back to you

    There'll be a cold day in hell
    before I'm coming back to you
    There'll be a cold day in hell
    before I'm coming back to you
    Yeah!

    ((Dutch Version: Do-Re-Mi (Paul de Leeuw met De Kinderen von Trapp)) - 1993))
    Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Oscar Hammerstein II
    First performance/First release by: Mary Martin - 1959
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Let's start at the very beginning
    A very good place to start
    When you read you begin with A-B-C
    When you sing you begin with do-re-mi

    Do-re-mi, do-re-mi
    The first three notes just happen to be
    Do-re-mi, do-re-mi

    Maria:
    Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti
    spoken Let's see if I can make it easy

    Doe, a deer, a female deer
    Ray, a drop of golden sun
    Me, a name I call myself
    Far, a long, long way to run
    Sew, a needle pulling thread
    La, a note to follow Sew
    Tea, a drink with jam and bread
    That will bring us back to Do (oh-oh-oh)

    Maria and Children:
    (Repeat above verse twice)

    Maria:
    Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do
    So-do!

    Maria:
    Now children, do-re-mi-fa-so and so on are only the tools we use to build a song
    Once you have these notes in your heads, you can sing a million different tunes by mixing them up
    Like this

    So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
    spoken Can you do that?

    Children:
    So Do La Fa Mi Do Re

    Maria:
    So Do La Ti Do Re Do

    Children:
    So Do La Ti Do Re Do

    Maria:
    Now, put it all together

    Maria and Children:
    So Do La Fa Mi Do Re, So Do La Ti Do Re Do

    Maria:
    Good!

    Brigitta:
    But it doesn't mean anything

    Maria:
    So we put in words
    One word for every note
    Like this

    When you know the notes to sing
    You can sing most anything
    Together!

    Maria and Children:
    When you know the notes to sing
    You can sing most anything

    Doe, a deer, a female deer
    Ray, a drop of golden sun
    Me, a name I call myself
    Far, a long, long way to run
    Sew, a needle pulling thread
    La, a note to follow Sew
    Tea, a drink with jam and bread
    That will bring us back to Do

    Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do
    Do Ti La So Fa Mi Re

    Children:
    Do Mi Mi
    Mi So So
    Re Fa Fa
    La Ti Ti
    (Repeat above verse 4x as Maria sings)

    The Sidestep
    Composer(s): Carol Hall
    Performer(s): Charles Durning



    Fellow Texans, I am proudly standing here to humbly see
    I assure you, and I mean it
    Now, who says I don't speak out as plain as day?
    And, fellow Texans, I'm for progress and the flag - long may it fly
    I'm a poor boy, come to greatness
    So, it follows that I cannot tell a lie

    Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't
    I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step
    cut a little swathe and lead the people on

    Now my good friends, it behooves me to be solemn and declare
    I'm for goodness and for profit and for living clean and saying daily prayer
    And now, my good friends, you can sleep nights, I'll continue to stand tall
    You can trust me, for I promise, I shall keep a watchful eye upon ya'll...

    Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't
    I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step
    cut a little swathe and lead the people on

    Now, Miss Mona, I don't know her, though I've heard the name, oh yes
    But, of course I've no close contact, so what she is doing I can only guess
    And now, Miss Mona, she's a blemish on the face of that good town
    I am taking certain steps here, someone somewhere's gonna have to close her down

    Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't
    I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step
    cut a little swathe and lead the people on

    Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep...

    And, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step...

    Cut a little swathe and lead the people on

    Cold Black Night
    Composer(s): Jeremy Spencer
    Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac



    It was a cold black night and the rain was falling down
    Cold black night and the rain was fallin' down
    I went out lookin' for my girl
    I knew she wasn't nowhere around

    She left me early that morning, with a suitcase in her hand
    She left me early that morning, yes, with a suitcase in her
    hand
    And she took off on a train this mornin'
    and she was meetin' some other man, yes

    She used to treat me real good and I wonder why I
    didn't treat her right
    Yes, ah, you know I wonder why I didn't treat her right
    And now all I can do, is walk those streets both day and night

    Ride, tenderfoot, ride tonight
    See the old rangers there at your side, tonight
    They're fast company
    So if you wanna be a cowboy
    Then you gotta ride, tenderfoot, ride!
    You gotta hit the trail
    In Oklahoma when the moon is pale
    And get to Texas with the mornin' mail
    'Fore you can be a cowboy
    You gotta rope and throw
    You gotta get your share of buffalo
    And win the money at the Rodeo
    'Fore you can be a cowboy (whistle)
    You gotta tend your cattle the best you can
    Hold your "likker" like a man
    And ride, tenderfoot, ride tonight!
    See the old range riders there at your side tonight
    They're fast company
    So if you wanna be a cowboy
    Then you gotta ride, tenderfoot, ride!
    Ride, ride, ride!

    You're as cold as ice
    You're willing to sacrifice our love
    You never take advice
    Someday you'll pay the price, I know

    I've seen it before
    It happens all the time
    Closing the door
    You leave the world behind

    You're digging for gold
    Yet throwing away
    A fortune in feelings
    But someday you'll pay

    You're as cold as ice
    You're willing to sacrifice our love
    You want paradise
    But someday you'll pay the price, I know

    I've seen it before

    You leave the world behind

    You're digging for gold

    I Have Confidence
    Composer(s): Richard Rodgers
    First release by: Julie Andrews - 1965



    What will this day be like? I wonder
    What will my future be? I wonder
    It could be so exciting to be out in the world, to be free
    My heart should be wildly rejoicing
    Oh, what's the matter with me?

    I've always longed for adventure
    To do the things I've never dared
    And here I'm facing adventure
    Then why am I so scared

    A captain with seven children
    What's so fearsome about that?

    Oh, I must stop these doubts, all these worries
    If I don't I just know I'll turn back
    I must dream of the things I am seeking
    I am seeking the courage I lack

    The courage to serve them with reliance
    Face my mistakes without defiance
    Show them I'm worthy
    And while I show them
    I'll show me

    So, let them bring on all their problems
    I'll do better than my best
    I have confidence they'll put me to the test
    But I'll make them see I have confidence in me

    Somehow I will impress them
    I will be firm but kind
    And all those children (Heaven bless them!)
    They will look up to me

    And mind me with each step I am more certain
    Everything will turn out fine
    I have confidence the world can all be mine
    They'll have to agree I have confidence in me

    I have confidence in sunshine
    I have confidence in rain
    I have confidence that spring will come again
    Besides which you see I have confidence in me

    Strength doesn't lie in numbers
    Strength doesn't lie in wealth
    Strength lies in nights of peaceful slumbers
    When you wake up -- Wake Up!

    It tells me all I trust I lead my heart to
    All I trust becomes my own
    I have confidence in confidence alone
    (Oh help!)

    I have confidence in confidence alone
    Besides which you see I have confidence in me!

    The Shut-In's Prayer
    Composer(s): Jimmy Martin - Paul Williams
    Performer(s): Jimmy Martin & The Sunny Mountain Boys



    Last night as the moon pulled anchor
    And sailed down the milky way
    It peeked through an old front window
    Where a lonely shut-in lay

    The moon seemed to shine much brighter
    Each star seemed to nod it's head
    The night seemed so strangely peaceful
    When they heard what the shut-in said

    Dear God way up in heaven
    I earnestly pray to thee
    And my prayer, oh Lord, was thou answered
    And lay a healing hand on me

    This vain world seems to forget me, Lord
    And I've been a shut-in so long
    I'm needing thy love, dear Jesus
    And still in my heart a song

    Lord, I ask not for gold or silver
    And no diamonds to call my own
    Just give me that touch of healing
    I'm so weak and all alone

    I trust that I'm not asking too much
    Of thy heavenly wealth
    When humbly, dear Lord, I pray thee
    Just give me back my health

    Then off to dreamland the shut-in drifted
    Yes, God heard what the shut-in said
    The night seemed so strangely peaceful
    When they heard what the shut-in said

    Cold
    Composer(s): Robert Smith; Lol Tolhurst; Simon Johnathon Gallup
    Originally performed by: The Cure



    Scarred
    Your back was turned
    Curled like an embryo
    Take another face
    You will be kissed again
    I was cold as I mouthed the words
    And crawled across the mirror
    I wait
    Await the next breath
    Your name
    Like ice into my heart
    A shallow grave
    A monument to the ruined age
    Ice in my eyes
    And eyes like ice don't move
    Screaming at the moon
    Another past time
    Your name
    Like ice into my heart

    Everything as cold as life
    Can no one save you?
    Everything
    As cold as silence
    And you never say a word
    Your name
    Like ice into my heart
    Your name
    Like ice into my heart
