1. _ Polly
If the wild-bird could speak
He'd tell of places you have been
He's been in my dreams
And he knows all the ways of the winds
Polly, come home again
Spread your wings to the wind
I fell much of the pain
As it begins
Dreams cover much time
Still they leve blind the will to begin
I searched for you there
And now look for you within
Polly, come home again
Spread your wings to the wind
I fell much of the pain
As it begins
Polly, come home again
Spread your wings to the wind
I fell much of the pain
As it begins

2. _ Feel Like Going Home
Lord, i feel like going home
I've tried and i fell and i'm tired and weary
Everything i've done is wrong
And i feel like going home
Lord, i tried to see you through
But it was too much for me
Now i'm coming home to you
Yeah, i feel like going home
Clouded skies are closing in
And not a friend around to help me
Of all the places i've been
Lord, i feel like going home
Lord, i feel like going home
I've tried and i fell and i'm tired and weary
Everything i've done is wrong
Lord, i feel like going home
Lord, i tried to see you through
But it was too much for me
Now i'm coming home to you
Yes, i feel like going home
Lord, i feel like going home
I've tried and i fell and i'm tired and weary
Everything i've done is wrong
Lord, i feel like going home

3. _ Buffalo Ballet
When abilene was young and gay
And thunder storms filled up the days
The cattle roam outside the town
Sleeping in the midday sun x4
Then tracks were laid across the plain
By broken old men in torrid rain
The towns grew up, and the people were still
Sleeping in the midday sun x4
We all joined in
(and) we all joined hands
We all joined in
To help run this land
Then the soldiers came, long long ago
Rode through the town
And mowed down those
Sleeping in the midday sun x4
Gold came and went, quickly spent
And the people broke down
And often drowned
From the wealth and the pain
Of old abilene
Sleeping in the midday sun x8

4. _ Poor Side Of Town
How can you tell me how much you miss me
When the last time i saw you, you wouldn't even kiss me
The rich guy you're seein' must have put you down
So welcome back, baby, to the poor side of town
To him you ain't nothin' but a play-thing
Not much more than an overnight-thing
To me you're the greatest that i've ever found
And it's hard to find nice things on the poor side of town
I can't blame you for trying
I'm trying to make it true
I got one kind of [ ? ]
I can't make it without you
So tell me, are you gonna stay now?
Would you stand by me, all the way now?
With you by my side, they can't keep us down
Together we can make it from the poor side of town
Together we can make it from the poor side of town
So welcome back, baby, to the poor side of town

5. _ Lover's Crime
Way up north, my love lies sleepin'
Her lonely grave, beneath the pines
How sadly i recall her memory
She was my own true love devine
One night i found her with another
They did not know i was around
In a blinded rage i drew my pistol
I killed them both and fled that town
For many days i wandered over
Across the sea and desert sands
My heart filled with grief and sadness
I could not clense these, my blooded hands
For many years i've been a prisoner
My grayin' hair marks off the time
I'm going back to my old north-lands
To wash away my sin and pride x2

6. _ Free Money
Every night before i go to sleep
I find a ticket and i win a lottery
I scoup them pearls up from the sea
I cash them in and buy you all the things you need
Every night before i rest my head
See them dollar bills go swirling 'round my bed
I know they're stolen, but i don't feel bad
I take that money and buy you things you never had
Oh baby, it would mean so much to me
Oh baby, buy you all the things you need, for free
Buy you a jet-plane, take you to the stratosphere
I'll buy you a jet-plane so we can check out all that's there
Where it's hot, hot, and ready and baby and cool, cold, you can feel the snow
It's a long way, a long way, got a long way left to go
When we're dreaming x2
Every night before i go to sleep
I find a ticket and i win a lottery
Every night before i rest my head
See them dollar bills go swirling 'round my bed
Oh baby, it would mean so much to me
Oh baby, buy you all the things you need, for free
When we're dreaming x2
When we're dreaming: free money, free money x2

7. _ Dear Darling
Why would you run ?
I beg stars above
A thing of such beauty
Must be called love
Why would you go
And give me to cry?
A thing of such beauty
Might never die
You bust loose from heaven
And now your life starts
So soon you will see
You've broken two hearts
And when you discover
The love i still know
You'll worry dear darling
Why you had to go
Why would you run?
I beg stars above
A thing of such beauty
Must be called love

8. _ Loom Of The Land
It was the dirty end of winter
Along the loom of the land
When i walked with sweet henry
Hand upon hand
And the wind it bit bitter
For a girl of no means
With no shoes on her feet
And a knife in her jeans
Along the loom of the land
The mission bells peeled
From the tower at saint mary's
Down to reprobate fields
And i saw (that) the world
(was) all blessed and bright
And henry breathed softly
In the majestic night
O baby please don't cry
And try to keep
Your little head upon my shoulder
Now we'll go to sleep
The elms and the poplars
Were turning their backs
Past the rumbling station
We followed their tracks
My hands they burned
In the folds of his coat
Breathing milky white air
From deep in his throat
O baby please don't cry
And try to keep
Your little head upon my shoulder
Now we'll go to sleep
I told him the moon
Was a magical thing
That it shone gold in winter
And silver in spring
And we walked and we walked
Across the endless sands
Just me and my henry
Along the loom of the land
O baby please don't cry
And try to keep
O baby please don't cry
And try to keep
Your little head upon my shoulder
Now we'll go to sleep

9. _ Satisfied Mind
How many times have you heard someone say
"if i had his money, i could do things my way?"
Little they know that it's so hard to find
One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind.
Once i was waitin' for fortune and fame
Everything that i dreamed for to get a start in life's game
Suddenly it happened, i lost every dime
But i'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
Money can't buy back your youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're lonely, or a love that's grown cold
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
When my life is ended, my time has run out
My trials and my loved ones, i'll leave them no doubt
But one thing's for certain, when it comes my time
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind x2

10. _ Will You Miss Me When I'm Gone
When death shall close these eyelids
And this heart shall cease to beat
And they lay me down to rest
In some flowery-bound retreat
Will you miss, miss me, when i'm gone
Will you miss, miss me, miss me when i'm gone x2
Will you miss when i'm gone
Perhaps you'll plant a flower
On my poor unworthy grave
And come sit alone beside me
When the roses nod and wave
Will you miss, miss me, when i'm gone
Will you miss, miss me, miss me when i'm gone x2
Will you miss when i'm gone
One sweet thought my soul shall cherish
Till this fleeting life has flown
This sweet thought will cheer when dying
You will miss me when i'm gone
Will you miss, miss me, when i'm gone
Will you miss, miss me, miss me when i'm gone x2
Will you miss when i'm gone

11. _ The Storms Are On The Ocean
(well) i'm going away to leave you
And i'm going away for a while
Well, i'm coming back to you someday
When i've gone ten thousand miles
Where the storms are on the ocean
And the heavens will cease to be
And this world will lose its motion
If you don't come back to me
Well, i left you in whiskey valley
With the crimes upon your face
And the storms were in the deep part
In the deepest darkest plain
Where the storms are on the ocean
And the heavens will cease to be
And this world will lose its motion
If you don't come back to me

12. _ Shelter For An Evening
Howling like a banshee in the middle of the night
Don't you know it's me at your back door
I'm wounded and scared with no place to go
Won't you give me home for the night
Shelter for an evening, shelter for the rain
Just for tonight, you'll never see me again
I'm wounded, oh baby, cant you see?
I got no one to blame but me
And i know this shit is killin' me
I can't stop, no, i can't stop
And it's getting to the point where i don't care
Just who or what you're sleeping with
I'm wounded and scared with no place to go
Won't you give me home for the night
Shelter for an evening, shelter for the rain
Just for tonight, you'll never see me again
I'm wounded, oh baby, cant you see?
I got no one to blame but me
I got no one to blame but me
I got no one to blame . . . . but me

13. _ The River People
Down here everyone says that the river people don't really belong here.
I know what it's like to be a stranger and divide a town beside a frontier.
People want your business and little more
I've watched shadows lengthen from a closed door.
Mountains wide, nothing is clearer to the river people than what the others try and hide.
You spoke, pushed your chair back at the meeting and i could tell that you were petrified.
You said the best people can suddenly oppose
The sight of good will and then it arose.
Two people, four people crossed the floor
I saw children run, i wept amidst the uproar
Around here your stranded face before moonlight, the color of the sea.
You came up to the house after swimming on sunset and the flattened sea.
The sky had opened, it had gone bust
You and i watched the river people swim before us
The sky had opened, it had gone bust
You and i watched the river people swim before us
You said the best people could suddenly oppose
The sight of good will and then it arose.
Two people, four people crossed the floor
I saw children run, i wept amidst the uproar
Down here . . .
You came . . .
