Always Remember Us This Way

Verse

That Arizona sky burning in your eyes

You look at me and, babe, I wanna catch on fire

It’s buried in my soul like California gold

You found the light in me that I couldn’t find

Chorus

So when I’m all choked up and I can’t find the words

Every time we say goodbye baby, it hurts

When the sun goes down - And the band won’t play

I’ll always remember us this way

Verse

Lovers in the night poets trying to write

We don’t know how to rhyme but damn we try

But all I really know you’re where I wanna go

The part of me that’s you will never die

Chorus

So when I’m all choked up and I can’t find the words

Every time we say goodbye baby, it hurts

When the sun goes down - And the band won’t play

I’ll always remember us this way - Oh, yeah

Bridge

I don’t wanna be just a memory, baby, yeah

Hoo-oo-oo, hoo-oo-oo, oo - oo.

Hoo-oo-oo, hoo-oo-oo, oo —– oo.

Chorus

So when I’m all choked up and I can’t find the words

Every time we say goodbye baby, it hurts

When the sun goes down and the band won’t play

I’ll always remember us this way - Wo-o-yeah

Outro

When you look at me and the whole world fades

I’ll always remember us this way

City of New Orleans

Intro

Verse

Riding on the City of New Orleans

Illinois Central, Monday morning rail

Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders

Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail.

All along the south bound odyssey, the train pulls out of Kankakee

Rolls along past houses, farms and fields

Passing trains that have no name, freight yards full of old black men

And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles.

Chorus

Good morning America, how are you?

Say, don’t you know me, I’m your native son.

I’m the train they call the City of New Orleans

I’ll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.

Verse

Dealing card games with the old men in the club car

Penny a point, ain’t no one keeping score

Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle

Feel the wheels rumblin’ ’neath the floor

Verse

And the sons of Pullman porters and the sons of engineers

Ride their fathers’ magic carpets made of steel

Mothers with their babes asleep, rockin’ to the gentle beat

And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel.

Chorus

Good morning America, how are you?

Say, don’t you know me, I’m your native son.

I’m the train they call the City of New Orleans

I’ll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.

Verse

Night time on the City of New Orleans

Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee

Halfway home, we’ll be there by morning

through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea.

Verse

But all the towns and people seem to fade into a bad dream

And the steel rail still ain’t heard the news

The conductor sings his songs again, the passengers will please refrain

This train got the disappearing railroad blues.

Chorus

Good night America, how are you?

Say, don’t you know me, I’m your native son.

I’m the train they call the City of New Orleans

I’ll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.

Fire on the Mountain

Intro

Verse

Took my family away from my Carolina home

Had dreams about the West and started to roam

Six long months on a dust covered trail

They say heaven’s at the end, but so far it’s been hell

Chorus

And there’s fire on the mountain, lightnin’ in the air

Gold in them hills and it’s waitin’ for me there

Verse

We were diggin’ and siftin’ from five to five

Sellin’ everything we found just to stay alive

Gold flowed free like the whiskey in the bars

Sinnin’ was the big thing, Lord, and Satan was the star

Chorus

And there’s fire on the mountain, lightnin’ in the air

Gold in them hills and it’s waitin’ for me there

Instrumental

Verse

Dance hall girls were the evenin’ treat

Empty cartridges and blood lined the gutters of the street

Men were shot down for the sake of fun

Or just to hear the noise of their forty-four guns

Chorus

And there’s fire on the mountain, lightnin’ in the air

Gold in them hills and it’s waitin’ for me there

Verse

Now my widow, she weeps by my grave

Tears flow free for her man she couldn’t save

Shot down in cold blood by a gun that carried fame

All for a useless and no good, worthless claim

Chorus

And there’s fire on the mountain, lightnin’ in the air

Gold in them hills and it’s waitin’ for me there

Chorus

Fire on the mountain, lightnin’ in the air

Gold in them hills and it’s waitin’ for me there

Waitin’ for me there…

Ghost Riders in the Sky

Intro

Verse

An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day

Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way

When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw

A-plowin’ through the ragged sky, and up a cloudy draw

Verse

Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel

Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel

A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky

For he saw the riders coming hard, and he heard their mournful cry

Chorus

Yippee-ai-oh, yippee-ai-ay

Ghost riders in the sky

Break

Verse

Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat

He’s ridin’ hard to catch that herd but he ain’t caught ’em yet

‘cause they’ve got to ride forever on that range up in the sky

On horses snortin’ fire, as they ride on hear their cry

Verse

As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name

If you want to save your soul from hell, a ridin’ on our range

Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride

Trying to catch the devil’s herd, across these endless skies

Chorus

Yippee-ai-oh, yippee-ai-ay

Ghost riders in the sky

Go Your Own Way

Intro

Verse

Loving you, isn’t the right thing to do?

How can I, ever change things that I feel?

If I could, maybe I’d give you my world

How can I, when you won’t take it from me?

Chorus

You can go your own way. (Go your own way.)

You can call it another lonely day

You can go your own way. (Go your own way.)

Verse

Tell me why, everything turned around?

Packing up, shacking up is all you wanna do

If I could, baby, I’d give you my world

Open up, everything’s waiting for you

Chorus

You can go your own way. (Go your own way.)

You can call it another lonely day

You can go your own way. (Go your own way.)

Gold Dust Woman

Verse

Rock on gold dust woman

Take your silver spoon, dig your grave

Heartless challenge, pick your path and I’ll pray

Wake up in the morning

See your sunrise - loves - to go down

Lousy lovers pick their prey

But they never cry out loud - cry out

Chorus

Well, did she make you cry

Make you break down

Shatter your illusions of love

And is it over now - do you know how

Pick up the pieces and go home

Verse

Rock on ancient queen follow those who pale

In your shadow

Rulers make bad lovers

You better put your kingdom up for sale - up for sale

Chorus

Well, did she make you cry

Make you break down

Shatter your illusions of love

And is it over now - do you know how

Pick up the pieces and go home

Chorus

Well, did she make you cry

Make you break down

Shatter your illusions of love

And is it over now - do you know how

Pick up the pieces and go home

Go home, go home

I climbed a mountain and I turned around

And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills

Till the landslide brought me down

Pancho and Lefty

Verse

Living on the road my friend

Was gonna keep you free and clean

Now you wear your skin like iron

Your breath’s as hard as kerosene

You weren’t your mama’s only boy

But her favorite one it seems

She began to cry when you said goodbye

And sank into your dreams

Verse

Pancho was a bandit boys

His horse was fast as polished steel

Wore his gun outside his pants

For all the honest world to feel

Pancho met his match you know

On the deserts down in Mexico

Nobody heard his dying words

That’s the way it goes

Chorus

All the federales say

They could have had him any day

They only let him hang a- round

Out of kindness I suppose

Verse

Lefty he can’t sing the blues

All night long like he used to

The dust that Pancho bit down south

Ended up in Lefty’s mouth

The day they laid poor Pancho low

Lefty split for Ohio

Where he got the bread to go

There ain’t nobody knows

Chorus

All the federales say

They could have had him any day

They only let him slip a- way

Out of kindness I suppose

Verse

The poets tell how Pancho fell

Lefty’s livin’ in a cheap hotel

The desert’s quiet and Cleveland’s cold

So the story ends we’re told

Pancho needs your prayers it’s true,

But save a few for Lefty too

He just did what he had to do

Now he’s growing old

Chorus

All the federales say

They could have had him any day

They only let him go so wrong

Out of kindness I suppose

Outro

And a few gray federales say

They could have had him any day

They only let him go so long

Out of kindness I suppose

Verse

Ever since the days of old

Men would search for wealth untold

They’d dig for silver and for gold

And leave the empty holes;

And way down south in the Everglades

Where the black water rolls and the saw grass waves

The eagles fly and the otters play

In the land of the Seminole;

Chorus

So blow, blow Seminole wind

Blow like you’re never gonna blow again;

I’m callin’ to you like a long-lost friend

But I know who you are;

And blow, blow from the Okeechobee

All the way up to Micanopy

Blow across the home of the Seminole

The alligators and the gar

Instrumental

Verse

Progress came and took its toll

And in the name of flood control

They made their plans and they drained the land

Now the Glades aregoin’ dry

And the last time I walked in the swamp

I stood up on a cypress stump

I listened close and I heard the ghost

Of Osceola cry

Chorus

So blow, blow Seminole wind

Blow like you’re never gonna blow again;

I’m callin’ to you like a long-lost friend

But I know who you are;

And blow, blow from the Okeechobee

All the way up to Micanopy

Blow across the home of the Seminole

The alligators and the gar

Whiskey Lullaby

Intro

Verse

She put him out like the burning end of a midnight cigarette

She broke his heart he spent his whole life trying to forget

We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time

But he never could get drunk enoughto get her off his mind

Until the night…

Chorus

He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger

And finally drank away her memory

Life is short but this time it was bigger

Than the strength he had to get up off his knees

They found him with his face down in the pillow

With a note that said I’ll love her til I die

And when we buried him beneath the willow

The angels sang a whiskey lullaby

La la la la la la la, La la la la la la la

Verse

The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself

For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath

She finally drank her pain away a little at a time

But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind

Until the night…

Chorus

She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger

And finally drank away his memory

Life is short but this time it was bigger

Than the strength she had to get up off her knees

We found her with her face down in the pillow

Clinging to his picture for dear life

We laid her next to him beneath the willow

While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby

La la la la la la la, La la la la la la la

Wish You Were Here

Intro

Verse

So, so you think you can tell,

Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain.

Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail, a smile from a veil,

Do you think you can tell?

Verse

Did they get you to trade… your heroes for ghosts,

Hot ashes for trees, hot air for a cool breeze, cold comfort for change,

And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

Instrumental

Verse

How I wish, how I wish you were here.

We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,

Running over the same old ground. What have we found?

The same old fears… Wish you were here!
