Okie From Muskogee
(roy edward burris, merle ronald haggard)
We dont smoke marijuana in muskogee
We dont take no trips on lsd
We dont burn our draft cards down on main street
We like living right and being free.
We dont make a party out of loving
But we like holding hands and pitching woo.
We dont let our hair grow long and shaggy
Like the hippies out in san francisco do.
And Im proud to be an okie from muskogee
A place where even squares can have a ball.
We still wave old glory down at the courthouse
And white lightnings still the biggest thrill of all.
Boots are still in style manly footwear,
Beads and roman sandals wont be seen.
Footballs still the roughest thing on the campus
And the kids there still respect the college dean.
And Im proud to be an okie from muskogee
I swear even squares can have a ball.
We still wave old glory down at the courthouse

Lover Please
(billy swan)
Lover please, please come back
Dont take that train goin down the track.
Dont please dont, dont leave me
Dont you leave me here in misery.
You would never hold me so near
You would never call me dear.
Dont you know Id die for you
Now youre gone and thats what Ill do.
Lover please, please come back
Dont take that train goin down the track.

Dont you leave me here in misery.
Well, its an old, old story, not too long,
About a love that went all wrong.

Now she gone and she oh so sad.

Dont take that train goin down the track
Dont please dont, dont leave me

Kinky
(ronnie hawkins)
I had me a wearied dream, seen me a wearied scene,
When I seen what I saw, couldnt sit still,
Nero was kissing on buffalo bill.
Let it roll, let it roll, let it roll one time for me.
When it gets too kinky for the rest of the world
Its getting just right for me.
There was rhinestone whips and midgets,
Quasimodo was jerking in hard.
I seen a tribe of pygmies doing their thing
Riding in on saint-bernards.
Let it roll, let it roll, let it roll one time for me.
When it gets too kinky for the rest of the world
Its getting just right for me.
Whew!
There was shetland ponies and bulldogs,
Jockstraps and cowboy boots,
Forty-seven miles of tennis shoe tongue
And thirteen pair of shoes.
Let it roll, let it roll, let it roll one time for me.

Rock & Roll Across The Usa
(kinky friedman, panama red)
Jesus said to pilate, remember the golden rule:
Love thy neighbor, dont you step on my blue suede shoes.
Pilate, he said to jesus, hey, you know this aint no sunday school
Baby, everybody knows that the wheels gotta roll,
Rock and roll across the usa.>
Wichita said to crazy horse,

Youd better slide over sitting bull-over, we got a highway coming through.
Baby, everybody knows that the wheels gotta roll
Rock and roll across the usa, yeah-yeah-yeah!
Jesus said to pilate, remember the golden rule:

Put Another Log On The Fire
(sheldon silverstein)
Put another log on the fire,
Cook me up some bacon and some beans,
Go out to the car and change the tire,
Wash my socks and sew my old blue jeans.
Baby, fill my pipe and then go fetch my slippers,
Boil me up another pot of tea.
Put another log on the fire, girl,
Come and tell me why youre leaving me.
Dont I let you wash the car on sunday ?
Dont I warn you when youre getting fat ?
Hey, fatso!
Aint I gonna take you fishing some day ?
Well, a man cant love a woman more than that.
Aint I always nice to your kid sister,
Dont I take her driving every night ?
So sit here at my feet because I like you when youre sweet
And you know that it aint feminine to fight.
Put another log on the fire,
Cook me up some bacon and some beans,

Amelia Earharts Last Fligh
Just a ship out on the ocean, a speck against the sky,
Amelia earhart flying that sad day;
With her partner, captain noonan, on the second of july
Her plane fell in the ocean, far away.
Theres a beautiful, beautiful field
Far away-ay-ay in a land that is fair.
Happy landings to you, amelia earhart,
Farewell, first lady of the air.
Half an hour later her sos was heard,
Her signals weak, but still her voice was brave.
In shark-infested waters her aeroplane went down that night
In the blue pacific to a watery grave.
Theres a beautiful, beautiful field
Far away-ay-ay in a land that is fair.
Happy landings to you, amelia earhart,
Farewell, first lady of the air.
Now you heard my story bout this awful tragedy,
We all pray shell fly home safe again.
In years to come, though others blaze a trail across the sea,
Well neer forget amelia and her plane.

Old Shep
(clyde red foley, willis arthur)
When I was a lad and old shep was a pup
Over hills and meadows wed stray.
Just a boy and his dog, we were both full of fun,
We grew up together that way.
I remember the time by the old swimming hole
When I wouldve drowned beyond doubt.
But old shep was right there, to the rescue he came,
He jumped in and helped pull me out.
Well, the years passed and rolled and old shep, he grew old,
His eyes they were fast growing dim.
Then one day the doctor looked at me and said,
i cant do no more for him, jim.
With hands that were tremblin, I picked up my gun,
I aimed it at sheps faithful head.
But I just couldnt do it, I wanted to run,
I wished they would shoot me instead.
Well, he crawled to my side and he looked up at me,
He laid his old head on my knee.
Id lost the best friend that a boy ever had,

Popeye The Sailor Man
(kinky friedman & panama red)
My heart is on my sleeve,
Do you still believe ?
Are you listenin to the tide roll in, watchin ships at sea ?
When I come sailin home again will you be there for me,
There for me ?
Treasure ships of yore
Grace the ocean floor
Columbus sailed for italy, columbus sailed for spain.
Columbus sailed a wishin well, columbus died in chains,
Died in chains.
I dont pretend to know every answer
To everything that life may ask of me.
Hey, Im popeye the sailor man
Im popeye the sailor man
Hey, popeye the sailor man
And I sail the lonely sea eternally.
My true love calls to me from far across the sea.
She says, red skies in the mornin
Sailor take warnin
