"500 Miles"
"500 Miles"
If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two, Lord, I'm three, Lord, I'm four
Lord, I'm five hundred miles from my home
Five hundred miles, five hundred miles
Five hundred miles, five hundred miles
Lord, I'm five hundred miles from my home
Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name
Lord, I can't go a-home this a-way
This a-way, this a-way
This a-way, this a-way
Lord, I can't go a-home this a-way
If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

"A Change Is Gonna Come"
(originally by Sam Cooke)
"A Change Is Gonna Come"
(originally by Sam Cooke)
I was born by the river
In a little tent
Oh
And just like the river
I been a running ever since
It's been a long
A long time coming but I know a change gon' come
Oh
Yes it will
It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die
Cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long
A long time coming but I know a change gon' come
Oh, yes it will
And I go to the movie and I go downtown
Somebody keeps telling me, "Don't hang around"
It's been a long
A long time coming but I know a change gon' come
Oh
Yes it will
Then I go to my brother and I say, I say "Brother help me please"
But he winds up knocking me back down, back down on my knees
There've been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
Now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long
A long time coming but I know a change gon' come
Oh, yes it will
But I know a change gon' come

"A Good Love Is Like A Good Song"
"A Good Love Is Like A Good Song"
I was a lonely soul, low voice in the crowd
Just whistling sadly with my head always bowed
I had many a thing of which to be proud
And then I saw her and my heart sang out loud
Oh, a good love is like a good song
It grows on you 'til it's so strong
It never leaves you, it never goes wrong
You know a good love is like a good song
We introduced ourselves, my heart simply soared
We walked and talked about the things we adored
Within the rhythm of the rain as it poured
I heard the echo of an old familiar chord
It said a good love is like a good song
It grows on you 'til it's so strong
It never leaves you, it never goes wrong
You know a good love is like a good song
I said I loved her and she said she loved me
To me, those words were like a sweet symphony
We were the happiest duet you'll ever see
'Til I found out we loved in three-part harmony
And a good love is like a good song
It grows on you 'til it's so strong
It never leaves you, it never goes wrong
You know a good love is like a good song
A good love is like a good song

But when I get home to you, I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright.

And it's worth it just to hear you say you're gonna give me everything
So why on earth should I moan cause when I get you alone
You know I feel OK.

"A Taste Of Honey"
(originally by Lenny Welch)
"A Taste Of Honey"
(originally by Lenny Welch)
Winds may blow o'er the icy sea
I'll take with me the warmth of thee
A taste of honey
A taste much sweeter than wine
I'll leave behind my heart to wear
And may it ever remind you of
A taste of honey
A taste much sweeter than wine
I will return, I will return
I'll come back for the honey and you
He never came back to his love so fair
And so she died dreaming of his kiss
His kiss of honey
A kiss more bitter than wine
I will return, I will return
I'll come back for the honey and you
(I'll come back, I'll come back)
He never came back to his love so fair
And so she died dreaming of his kiss
His kiss of honey
A kiss more bitter than wine
I will return, I will return
I'll come back for the honey and you

"A Whiter Shade Of Pale"
(originally by Procol Harum)
"A Whiter Shade Of Pale"
(originally by Procol Harum)
We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
The crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
So we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray
And so it was baby
As the miller told his tale
How her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
He said, there is no reason
And the truth is plain to see
And I wandered through my playing cards
Would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were wide open, girl
They just might as well be closed
And so it was baby
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
And so it was baby
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

"An Uncloudy Day"
(originally by The Staple Singers)
Oh, they tell me of a home far beyond the skies
Oh, they tell me of a home far away
Oh, they tell me of a place where no storm clouds rise
Oh, they tell me of an uncloudy day
Oh, they tell me of a place where my friends have gone
Oh, they tell me of a land far away
Where the Tree of Life in eternal bloom
Shades its fragrance on the uncloudy day
Oh, the land of cloudless day
Oh, the land of an uncloudy sky
Oh, they tell me of a place where no storm clouds rise
Oh, they tell me of an uncloudy day
Oh, they tell me of the King in His beauty there
And they tell me that mine eyes shall behold
Where He sits on a throne that is whiter than snow
In the city that is made of gold
Oh, the land of cloudless day
Oh, the land of an uncloudy sky
Hey, they tell me of a place where no storm clouds rise
Oh, they tell me of an uncloudy day
(I believe it now!)
Oh, they tell me that He smiles on His children there
And His smile drives their sorrows all away
And they tell me that no tears ever come again
In that lovely land of uncloudy day

"Apple Tree"
"Apple Tree"
I used to sit in a big apple tree
Welcome the sun as he shone down on me
Watch the fruit ripen, smell the land grow
Felt the fall rains get colder and turn into snow
And then in the summer, I'd walk through the trees
Roll up my trousers way over my knees
Waded a stream 'til the rocks hurt my feet
The water was cool, and the summer was sweet
Autumn got lonely when harvest came 'round
Green leaves turned golden and fell to the ground
Clear nights got colder, with the stars bright above
And in the winter, I first fell in love
She loved me truly 'til winter passed by
Left without warning and never said why
Maybe she's lonely, needs me somewhere
Maybe by summer, I won't even care

"Artists And Poets"
"Artists And Poets"
Living in poverty, searching for harmony
Chasing after dreams not yet real
An artist with no brush, a poet with no pen
Tried to tell the world what he did feel
Years of disappointment, rare moments of joy
Wonder how he endured the strife
He saw all the beauty, felt the sorrow and pain
Searchin' for meaning to his life
Now that he's gone, will his songs live on?
Will someone remember what he gave?
Stars in the skies, tears in your eyes
Ooo, it made me feel so good inside
Came from Alabama with a banjo on his knee
Spent some time in Nashville, Tennessee
He sang some fine lines, sad songs of hard times
Just for the people on the land
Now that he's gone, will his songs live on?
Will someone remember what he gave?
Stars in the skies, tears in your eyes
Ooo, it made me feel so good inside
