Gun club/jeffrey lee pierce
Come down to the willow garden with me
Come go with me
Come go and see
Although i've howled across fields and my eyes turned grey
Are yours still the same
Are you still the same
Carry home
I have returned
Through so many highways
And so many tears
Your letter never survived the heat of my hand
My buring hand
My sweating hand
Your love never survived the heat of my heart
My violent heart
In the dark
Carry home
I have returned
Through so many highways
And so many tears
Come down to the willow garden with me
Come go with me
Come go and see
Although i've howled across fields and my eyes turned grey
Are yours still the same
Are you still the same

5.Creeping Coastline Of Light
The leaving trains
Leaving hollywood
Sunset to the sea
Where the waves
Ride in on horses
I'm looking for her light
Creeping coastline of lights
The seas and the trees
Calling me
She's a river between day and night
I'm looking for her light
Creeping coastline of lights
She's comin down
From her mountian
Shinin white light
Like a fountain
And i'm lookin for her light
Creeping coastline of lights
And i'm lookin for her light
Creeping coastline of lights

I can tell by the way
You carry yourself

Just what you've been through
So if you'll let me

You won't ever have to worry
You won't ever have to cry

To dry your weeping eyes

'cause there's no doubt in my mind
I know what i want to do
And just as sure as
One and one are two
I just got to take care of you

I'll take care of you
7.Little Sadie
Traditional
Went out last night, take a little round
Met little sadie and i blowed her down
Then i run right home and went to bed
With a forty-four smokeless under my head
The girls all heard little sadie was dead
They went home to be ragged in red
Come a slippin' and a slidin' down the street
In their loose mother hubbards and their stocking feet
Well i began to think what a deed i'd done
Grabbed my hat and i started to run
I made a good run just a little too slow
And they overtook me in jericho
Standing on the corner reading a bill
Up stepped the sheriff of thomasville
Said young man is your name lee brown?
Remember the night you blowed sadie down?
Yes i said my name is lee
I murdered little sadie in a first degree
First degree and a second degree
If ya got any papers, read 'em to me
Took me downtown, dressed me in black
Put me on a train and send me back
Didn't have no one to go on my bail
Throw me back in the county jail
Judge and the jury took their stand
Judge had the papers in his hand
Forty-one days and forty-one nights
Forty-one years just to wear them stripes
8.On Jesus' Program
O. v. wright
On jesus' program
I'll wade out in the deep
Oh yes i will
On jesus' program
Oh i cannot sleep
On jesus' program
The holy spirit will creep
I know he'll take me, shake me
Make me what i have to be
On jesus' program
I'm working for christ
Oh yes i am
On jesus' program
I know someday i'll rise
On jesus' program
To mansions in the sky
Where i'll be free to live on
To live on
Eternally
I'm workin
On the program
Every day
When this life
Is all over
I'm going home
When this life
Is all over
I'm going home
9.Shanty Man's Life
Steven harrison paulus
*note:it has been said that the version
Of this song done by dave van ronk is the one
That inspired lanegan to record it.
A shanty man's life
Is a wearisome one
Though some say it's free from care
It's the swinging of an axe
From morning 'till night
In the forest wild and drear
Transported as we are
From a lady so fair
To the banks of some lonely stream
Where the wolf, bear, and owl
Give a terrifying howl
And disturb our nightly dreams
Oh sleeping at night
In our bunks without cheer
While the cold winter winds do blow
But as soon as the morning
Star does appear
To the wild woods we must go
Had we ale, wine, or beer
Our spirits far to cheer
When we're in those woods so wild
Where a glass of whiskey shone
When we're in the woods alone
For to pass away our long exile
A shanty man's life
Is a wearisome one
Tho some say it's free from care
It's the swinging of an axe
From morning 'till night
In the forest wild and drear
10.Shiloh Town
Tim hardin
It is so cold in shiloh town
Birds can hardly sing
Pretty girls gonna leave the town
They won't be back 'till spring
War is done they've come back home
But they're the ones that lost
See a man and a woman alone
Was it worth the cost?
I'll sing hallelujah
You'll sing hallelujah
We'll all sing hallelujah
When they arrive at home
Sun is out it's hot to today
Children all come out to play
Some are quick to come back home
Others, gone to stay
Gets so cold in shiloh town
Birds can hardly sing
Pretty girls gonna leave the town
They won't be back 'till spring
I'll sing hallelujah
You'll sing hallelujah
We'll all sing hallelujah
When they arrive at home
11.Together Again
Buck owens
Together again
My tears have stopped falling
The long lonely nights
Are now at an end
The keys to my heart
You hold in your hand
And nothing else matters
We're together again
Together again
The grey skies are gone
You 're back in my arms
Now where you belong
The love that i knew
Is living again
And nothing else matters
We're together again
And nothing else matters
We're together again
