Home Lovin' Man
Home Lovin' Man
Composer(s): Roger Cook; Roger Greenaway; Tony Macaulay
Performer(s): Andy Williams; Tony Christie
The harbor lights were shining
The moon was at its high
The captain said, "Thank God we're home!
We've drunk the barrels dry"
The mizzen mast was shaken
And the lanterns all burned low
I'd never thought we'd make it
But we've twenty leagues to go
So blow you southern trades
And guide me safely to the shore
I'll never ever gonna sail
The seven seas no more
Chorus:
I don't want to miss the sand in my hair
The roll of the tide and the salt in the air
Deep inside it's true
I'm a home lovin' man
Comin' on home to you
I don't want to miss the wind in my eyes
The shimmerin' light when the seagull flies
Lo, I've traveled far
I'm a home loving man
Home is where you are
The crowd upon the quayside
Their faces long and drawn
Are suddenly awakened
As we sail in on the dawn
The wives, the sons, the lovers
Who never gave up hope
All breathe a sigh together
As they reach to catch the rope
God bless you, southern trades
You got me safely back this time
Oh, you'll never have the need again
To save this soul of mine
Chorus
Repeat Chorus:
Yes, I don't want to miss the sand in my hair
The roll of the tides and the salt in the air
Deep inside it's true
I'm a home lovin' man
Comin' on home to you...

Sticks And Stones
Sticks And Stones
Composer(s): Jonathan Edwards
Performer(s): Jonathan Edwards
Where do I begin to pack up my things
And move away from what might have been
Was it in some song that came out all wrong
And yet we both tried so hard to sing
I'll pack my guitar
I'll leave you with the car
I hope it won't be too cold to start
But I must get going
The kids get up at dawn
And this is sure to break somebody's heart
(Chorus)
Now, when did we grow this far apart
Love was forever at the start
But now it's come down to sticks and stones
When did we go wrong
When were we not strong
And did we try hard enough to care
It's cold as hell outside
It's just as cold inside
Now that there's nothing left to share
I'll pack up my books, linger with last looks
And I'll throw them all in my truck and drive
From these sticks and stones
And the lies on the phone
But I hope all that you want will arrive
(Chorus)
I'd better be on my way right now
I'm bad at goodbyes anyhow
Now it's come down to sticks and stones
(Chorus)
When did we grow this far apart
Love was so kind to us at the start
But now it's come down to sticks and stones
I'd better be on my way right now
I'm bad at goodbyes anyhow
Now it's come down to sticks and stones

Home Is Where The Heart Is (Old & In The Way)
Home Is Where The Heart Is
Composer(s): Connie Gately; John Talley
Performer(s): Old & In The Way;
and various other artists
Nestled in the pine trees in the mountains
Down along the road, I love it still
There I know my dear old mother's waiting
Waiting, and I know she always will
Home is where the heart is, they tell me
Many times I've travelled that lonesome road
They'll never find a pal as sweet as mother
They'll never find a place as sweet as home
Now many years ago I left my old home
Started out to ramble all around
If ever I return to where I came from
I'll build a little home and settle down
Home is where the heart is, they tell me
Many times I've travelled that lonesome road
They'll never find a pal as sweet as mother
They'll never find a place as sweet as home

Shady Lady
Shady Lady
Composer(s): Philip Kirkorov - Karen Kavaleryan
First performance by: Ani Lorak - 2008
You've been my superstar
But it's not what you are
You've been my super hero
Since I've lived in your shade
Every step that I made
Brought me nothing but zero
But I'm staying alive
And now I'm changin' my life
With a burning desire
No one knows who I am
But I don't give a damn
Gonna set you on fire
Shady lady – I'm gonna strike like thunder
Are you ready? I wanna make you wonder
Rollin' steady – I'm gonna make you shiver
My heart is burning
Shady lady – I'm gonna strike like thunder
Are you ready? I wanna make you wonder
Rollin' steady – I'm gonna make you shiver
My heart is burning now
Just take a look at me
Deep inside and you'll see
All I kept under cover
There is one thing I bet
You're about to regret
I'm no longer your lover
I've just turned one more page
I belong to the stage
Baby, don't call me baby
Shady lady – I'm gonna strike like thunder
Are you ready? I wanna make you wonder
Rollin' steady – I'm gonna make you shiver
My heart is burning now
(Shady lady)
(Shady lady)
I wanna light you up and leave you alone
I am a brand new star that you've never known
I wanna light you up and leave you alone
I am a brand new star that you've never known
(Shady lady)
(Are you ready?)
Shady lady – I'm gonna strike like thunder
Are you ready? I wanna make you wonder
Rollin' steady – I'm gonna make you shiver
My heart is burning now

Home Is Where The Heart Is (Elvis Presley)
Home Is Where The Heart Is
Composer(s): Sherman Edwards; Hal David; Donald Meyer
Performer(s): Elvis Presley
Home is where the heart is
And my heart is anywhere you are
Anywhere you are is home
I don't need a mansion
On a hill that overlooks the sea
Anywhere you're with me is home
Maybe I'm a rolling stone
Who won't amount to much
But everything that I hold dear
Is close enough to touch
For home is where the heart is
And my heart is anywhere you are
Anywhere you are is home
Maybe I'm a rolling stone
Who won't amount to much
But everything that I hold dear
Is close enough to touch
For home is where the heart is
And my heart is anywhere you are
Anywhere you are is home, home, home, home, home

Stick It On The Wall, Mrs. Riley
Stick It On The Wall, Mrs. Riley
Composer(s): Arion - Madden
Performer(s): Billy Cotton & His Band
Stick it on the wall, Mrs. Riley
Enough’s enough for any old bit of fluff
(Alan)
Mrs. Riley wears a fur that really is a sight
A cross between a door mat and a cat that lost a fight
She wears it summer, autumn, spring,
Whenever she goes out
And when she’s coming down the street
You’ll hear the neighbours shout
Stick it on the wall, Mrs. Riley
Don’t you think you’ve had it long enough
Stick it in the fire, Mrs. Riley
There comes an end to every bit of fluff
It’s made a meal for every moth
That’s fluttered round the town
It’s worn and torn and all forlorn
It’s time you laid it down
So stick it on the wall, Mrs. Riley
The poor old thing is getting much too rough
I mean your bit of beaver, Mrs. Riley
Enough’s enough for any old piece of fluff
(Billy)
Why don’t you stick it on the wall, Mrs Riley
(Alan)
Splendid idea, William
(Billy)
Don’t you think you’ve had it long enough
(Alan)
Yes and actually I should stick it in the fire, Mrs Riley
(Billy)
Good a place as any
(Alan)
There comes an end to every bit of fluff
(Billy)
March of time, old boy
It’s made a meal for every moth
that’s fluttered round the town
(Alan)
It’s worn and torn and all forlorn
It’s time you laid it down
(Both)
So stick it on the wall, Mrs Riley
(Alan)
The poor old thing is getting much too rough
(Billy)
Wear and tear, old man
We mean your bit of beaver, Mrs Riley
(Alan)
Of course
(Both)
Enough’s enough for any old piece of fluff
Stick it on the wall, Mrs. Riley

Home In The Woods
Home In The Woods
Composer(s): Robert Ellen
Performer(s): Lightnin' Hopkins
I'm gonna find me another home
I'm gonna find it way out in the woods
I'm gonna find me another home, find it way out in the woods
So I can let all them no good women know, whoa, I don't mean them no good
Yes everybody tells me
in my neighborhood
You mess with a woman she don't mean you no good
I'm gonna find me a home, way out in the woods
So I can let all these old no-good women know, I don't mean them no good
She used to be a good woman but she didn't do what she should
And that's the reason I'm gonna find me a home out in the woods
I don't mean them no good
Still I want you to know
I did the best I could

Peace Will Come
Peace Will Come
Composer(s): Kim Breitburg - Karen Kavaleryan
First performance by: Diana Gurtskaya - 2008
Look, the sky is crying cold bitter tears
Weeping for the people lost in fear
While we fight for nothing, my eyes run dry
Are you still so blind to ask me why?
Why?
Say it out loud: peace will come
Everybody, shout: peace will come
When you stop and tame your rage
Something's gotta change
Something's gotta change
Say it out loud: peace will come
Everybody, shout: peace will come
Blow the trumpet, beat the drum
Peace will come
Sometimes words kill faster than bullets do
But the face of war is never true
Kids with guns are always too young to die
Are you still so deaf to ask me why?
Why?
Say it out loud: peace will come
Everybody, shout: peace will come
When you stop and tame your rage
Something's gotta change
Something's gotta change
Say it out loud: peace will come
Everybody, shout: peace will come
Blow the trumpet, beat the drum
Peace will come
My land is still crying, torn in half
My world is slowly dying
My heart is only crying
Peace and love
Oh no, no, no
Say it out loud: peace will come
Everybody, shout: peace will come
When you stop and tame your rage
Something's gotta change
Something's gotta change
Say it out loud: peace will come
Everybody, shout: peace will come
Blow the trumpet, beat the drum
Peace will come
Blow the trumpet, beat the drum
Peace will come

Home In The Mountains
Home In The Mountains
Composer(s): Don Reno
Performer(s): Don Reno
I want to go back to my home in the mountains
Where shade trees grow all around
Where grass grows so green and flowers are still blooming
I'm leaving and that's where I'm bound
I'm only a man, I don't care for riches
I'm tired of living this way
I'm going back to my home in the mountains
And this time I'm going to stay
I want to be free where the birds are still singing
And whippoorwills call out at night
The air is still clear and neighbors say howdy
And stars in Heaven shine bright
I'm only a man, I don't care for riches
I'm tired of living this way
I'm going back to my home in the mountains
And this time I'm going to stay

Stick Around
Stick Around
Performer(s): AC/DC
You've been smiling lately baby
You've been singing in the bath
You've been acting like a lady
Not a dirty photograph
Then tonight you came home early
Packed a bag or two
It's been worrying me honey
Just what you're gonna do, ooh
Stick around, yeah, stick around
Stick around, baby, stick around
Well you came on like a hurricane, hey
About a month ago
Blowing like a stiff breeze
Always on the go
All the good times that we had baby
All stayed in the past
All the good lays that I get
Never seem to last
Stick around, yeah, stick around
Stick around, baby, stick around
Come on baby, sit on this
What have I been doing lately
To make you wanna go
I take you out dancing
Honey we can go out to a show
Spend a night romancing
Nights out on the town
Listen to me baby
You'll be glad you stuck around
Stick around, yeah, stick around, oh honey
Stick around, yeah, stick around
Stick around, around, around, around, around
Stick around, c'mon baby stick around don't let me down
Stick around, yeah, stick around

Home For Sale
Home For Sale
Composer(s): Dwight Yoakam
Performer(s): Dwight Yoakam
Home for sale
That's much too large
Too many rooms
Big ole empty yard
Far more space
Than the owner needs
Price includes
All memories
Home for sale
Restored like new
Just a place
Two lives outgrew
A change in heart
Forces move away
Would like to keep
But just can't stay
Listen close and you might
hear the sound
Of what you think is rainfall
leaking down
The roof is fine
Set aside your fears
It's just a few remaining tears
Home for sale
Not all that old
A family's dream
Stands dark and cold
Scenic views
That go for free
Of all the love
That used to be
Home for sale
That's much too large

Airport (Wet Willie)
Airport
Composer(s): John Anthony
Performer(s): Wet Willie
My baby came in a plane last night
We went down to meet her, but I had the wrong flight
Yea the man at the desk said that she wasn't due
He said she wouldn't be in for an hour or too
No, no, no
We waited, we waited, until i broke
I said to myself this must be a joke
I went up to the desk and said look here man
What time did you say my baby's gonna land?
Well he looked at his book and he said hey sport
You got the right plane baby, but the wrong airport
I finally got to see my baby you see
A half an hour later she was laying next to me
She was lookin real good and she sounded alright
Ya know my baby knocked me around and she found a fight
Outa sight

Home Before Dark
Home Before Dark
Composer(s): Jimmy McHugh; Sammy Cahn
Home before dark
I hurry home before dark
Before the sun goes to rest
I must fly to my nest like the lark
Home before dark
I must get home before dark
It’s almost ready to storm
And love waits with a warm remark
Home before dark
It’s good to be home before dark
So good to be held in the arms
The arms of the one I love

Airport (The Motors)
Airport
Composer(s): Andy McMaster
Performer(s): The Motors
So many destination faces going to so many places
Where the weather is much better
And the food is so much cheaper
Well I help her with her baggage for her baggage is so heavy
I hear the plane is ready by the gateway to take my love away
And I can't believe that she really wants to leave me and it's getting me so
It's getting me so
Airport
Airport, you've got a smiling face
You took the one I love so far away
Fly her away - fly her away - airport
Airport, you've got a smiling face
You took my lady to another place
Fly her away - fly her away
The plane is on the move
And the traces of the love we had in places
Are turning in my mind - how I wish I'd been much stronger
For the wheels are turning faster as I hear the winds are blowing
And I know that she is leaving
On the jet plane way down the runaway
And I can't believe that she really wants to leave me - and it's
Getting me so
It's getting me so
Airport
Airport, you've got a smiling face ...
Airport
Airport, you've got a smiling face ...

Composer(s): Gerry Rafferty
Performer(s): Gerry Rafferty
This silver bird takes me 'cross the sky
Just one more hour and I'll be home and dry
'Cross the ocean, way above the clouds I come stealin'
Feelin' tired, but I feel good
Cause I did everything I said I would
I think of you, and I know how you'll be feelin'

We'll make it better now in every way
It's gotta be you, it's gotta be you
Yes from now on I'll tell you everyday
Way up here above this timeless sea
I realize just what it is you mean to me
You give me somethin' when I thought that everything we had was dyin'
I need a reason just to make me carry on
Well I know better now, I know where I belong
I can't imagine how I ever let myself just give up tryin'
I gotta see you, I gotta be with you
We'll make it better now in every way
It's gotta be you, it's gotta be you
Yes from now on I'll tell you everyday
Oooooh, yes home and dry
Ain't nothin' up here gonna slow me down
You know I never had to take the long way 'round
I think of you, 'cause I know how you'll be feelin'
This silver bird takes me 'cross the sky
Just one more hour and I'll be home and dry
'Cross the ocean, way above the clouds I come stealin'
I gotta see you, I gotta be with you
We'll make it better now in every way
It's gotta be you, it's gotta be you

Hello Walls, No. 2
Hello Walls, No. 2
Composer(s): Willie Nelson - Sheb Wooley
Performer(s): Ben Colder
Holy mackerel there!
Hello wall
I didn't see you standin' there
Did I hurt you?
Boy I sure did hit you square
Now one of us is plastered and I'll let you guess who
Just imagine bumpin' in to you
Hey wall (hello hello)
Why did you let them move the door
And the ceiling, why it used to be the floor
Someone came while I was out and changed you all around
Or could it be that I'm standin' upside down
That chandalier is all lit up
It just took a swing at me
And someone put the bathtub
Where the kitchen sink used to be
Hello bedsheet (hello hello)
I guess I'd better lay me down
You know I can't sleep if this bed keeps spinnin' round
There's a picture on the head board, hey I've seen them folks before
Son of a gun! I'm in the house next door (hello hello)
Hello neighbor

Home Among The Gum Trees
Home Among The Gum Trees
Composer(s): Bob Brown; Walter Johnson Jr.
Performer(s): John Williamson; Bloodwood
I've been around the world
A couple of times or maybe more
I've seen the sights, I've had delights
On every foreign shore
But when my friends all ask me
The place that I adore
I tell them right away
(chorus)
Give me a home among the gum trees
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two and a kangaroo
A clothes lines out the back
Veranda at the front
And an old rocking chair
You can see me in the kitchen
Cooking up a roast
Or vegemite on toast
Just you and me and a cup of tea
Later on we'll settle down
And loll upon the porch
And watch the possums play
(chorus)
Some people like their houses
With fences all around
Others live in mansions
And some beneath the ground
But me I like the bush you know
With rabbits runnin' round
And a pumpkin vine out the back
(chorus twice)

Country Music In My Soul
Composer(s): Bobby Bond
Performer(s): George Hamilton IV
I been travelin' down the highways with my guitar for so long
Shakin' hands and meetin' lots of folks
Living my life my way with a handshake and a song
Caring little if I was rich or broke
Cause there's country music in my soul
People music for the young and the old
I'll keep on singing a song keep on keeping on
Cause there's country music in my soul
Well I met a man in Illinois who came to hear our show
Well he brought his wife and all his fourteen kids
Why he took the trouble Lord I swear I'll never know
Well we'd give 'em everything we had to give
Cause there's country music in my soul...
When the final curtain falls and I go to meet the Lord
If he asks me what I think I'd like to do
I'll humbly request he seat the people on the floor
Cause I kinda like to sing 'em all the tune
Cause there's country music in my soul
People music for the young and the old
I'll keep on singing a song keep on keeping on
Cause there's country music in my soul
Yeah yeah yes there's country music in my soul
Oh oh yes there's country music in my soul
