- All for the Love of a Girl
Well, today I'm so weary
Today I'm so blue
Sad and brokenhearted
And it's all because of you
Life was so sweet, dear
Life was a song
Now you've gone and left me
Oh, where do I belong?
- Cherokee Boogie
Writer: M. MULLICAN, W.C. REDBIRD
Well, A Cherokee chief as he dances along
Sings an Indian boogie to a white man's song
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"
"Hey-ho-a-lina"
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina
"Hey-ho-a-lina"
- Done Rovin'
(I'm done rovin' I'm gonna settle down.)
I'm done rovin' down this lonesome road.
Found my treasure at the end of love's rainbow.
I found a love for which I'm pinin',
Pretty as a ring, her love was shinin'.
I'm done rovin' down this lonesome road.
I'm done rovin' down this lonesome road,
- Go and Wash Your Dirty Feet
When I was a little boy, bare-footed, I'd like to go
In the spring or summertime, there was no ice or snow
When I was tired and nearly dead, these are the words that Mamma said
Go and wash those dirty feet before you go to bed
When I would get out off school, I could hardly wait
I'd have my brogans in my hand before I'd hit the gate
I'd wrought them plain till nearly dead, that same old line, Mamma always said
- Honky Tonk Hardwood Floor
The fiddles're squeekin' the guitars're speakin' the piano plays a jelly-roll
The man on the drum is out from dumb and the bassman he plays from his soul
The tables're quakin' and your nerves're shakin' but you keep on beggin' for more
You keep a havin' your fun you lucky son of a gun on a honky tonk hardwood floor
On a honky tonk hardwood floor on a honky tonk hardwood floor
You keep a havin' your fun you lucky son of a gun on a honky tonk hardwood floor
There's a waitress handy and she don't sell candy and she don't sell soda pop
- Honky Tonk Man
I'm a honkytonk man and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone
Hollerin, "Hey-hey, mama can your daddy come home?"
I'm livin' fast an' a-dangerously
But I've got plenty of company
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down

- Honky-Tonk Man
I'm a honky tonk man, and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a whirl to the music of an old jukebox
But when my money's all gone, I'm on the telephone
Callin' he-ey momma can your daddy come home?
I'm livin' fast and dangerously, but I've got plenty of company
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down
That's when I wanna see the lights of town
'Cause I'm a honky tonk man, and I can't seem to stop
- I Hate Niggers
I like sugar, and I like tea
But I don't like niggers...no siree!
There's two known things that'll make me puke
And that's a hog eatin' slop, and a big, black spook!
You know it...cause I show it
Like a barn-yard rooster I crow it!
And the NAACP
- I'm A One Woman Man
Джонни Хортон
"Мужчина одной женщины"
Если ты скажешь мне, что любишь меня
Я буду очень горд
Если позволишь мне тебя обнять, дорогая
Я буду кричать от счастья
- I'm Ready, If You're Willing
Oh, there's a big bright moon above
And the night's just made for love
Baby, I'm ready if you're willin'
If that twinkle in your eye
Is a-darin' me to try,
Baby, I'm ready if you're willin'
Baby, can't you see I'm a-waitin'
- Ill Do it Everytime
Well i called you on the phone to tell you who i love
And if you want to be mine
But then i'm hanging up i won't call no more
But i'll do it every time
Oh well i'll do it every time
But i'm gentle and i'm not to rough
When i feel the touch of your wonderful love
I just can't get it enough
- Jim Bridger
Once there was a mountain man who couldn't write his name
Yet he deserves the front row seat in History's Hall of Fame
He forgot more about the Indians than we will ever know
He spoke the language of the Sioux the Black Foot and the Crow
(Let's drink to old Jim Bridger yes lift your glasses high)
As long as there's the USA don't let his memory die
(That he was making history never once occurred to him)
- Joe's Been A-Gittin' There
There was a Yankee Cornel in 1862
Who fell in Love with a southern belle where the sweet magnolias bloom
He wondered why folks laughed at him when he went ridin' by
But little did he know that she was a courtin' on the sly.
Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there all this time
Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
- Mr. Moonlight
(Mr Moonlight)
[ guitar ]
Nobody really cares where the moon goes to dawn
Just as long as it's around when the sun goes down then it's nothing wrong
Mr Moon and me and baby makes three we're just like one big family
Everything is right when you're shining bright Mr Moonlight
When the storm clouds gather and you don't know what to do
Pack up your troubles and take a walk underneath the moon
- North To Alaska
Way up north, (North To Alaska.)
Way up north, (North To Alaska.)
North to Alaska,
They're goin' North, the rush is on.
North to Alaska,
They're goin' North, the rush is on.

- Ole Slew Foot
High on the mountain tell me what you see
Bear tracks bear tracks lookin' back at me
Better get your rifle boy before it's too late
Cause the bear's got a little pig and headed through the gate
He's big around the middle and he's broad across the rump
Runnin' ninety miles an hour takin' thirty feet a jump
Ain't never been caught he ain't never been treed
And some folks say he look a lot like me
- Ridin the Sunshine Special
I’m gonna ride that happy train when it comes rolling
When it comes rocking and a-rolling down the track
I found a one way ticket on the sunshine special
I ain’t a-counting on coming back
I got a gal a waiting down in sunshine valley
In the valley where the blues are not allowed
And the sunshine special is a-rocking and a-rolling
Neath a sky of blue that never has a cloud
- Shadows On The Old Bayou
Strolling in the evening when the moon’s hanging low
Just walking talking baby cause I miss you so
With twilight kisses this evening dew
I miss you baby in the shadows of the old bayou
My thoughts keep a-haunting the memories of you
Can’t eat sleep don’t know what I’m to do
My heart keeps a-calling calling for you
I need you baby in the shadows of the old bayou
- She Knows Why
I have a story I'd like to tell broken heart's knowin' only too well
And she knows why I feel the way I do
She gave me all her love and then she took it away blue sky has turned to a solid grey
And she knows why I feel the way I do
Well I know I'm a walkin' down the lovesick trails been walked down by many before
But when she sees my side of tracks she'll know I've learned the score
I'll pick my tears put 'em on the shelf keep my heartaches to myself
Cause she'll know why I feel the way I do
- Sink The Bismarck
In May of 1941 the war had just begun
The Germans had the biggest ship that had the biggest guns
The Bismarck was the fastest ship that ever sailed the sea
On her decks were guns as big as steers and shells as big as trees
Out of the cold and foggy night came the British ship the Hood
And every British seaman he knew and understood
They had to sink the Bismarck the terror of the sea
- Sink The Bismarck 1960
In May of nineteen forty-one the war had just begun
The Germans had the biggest ship that had the biggest guns
The Bismark was the fastest ship that ever sailed the seas
On her deck were guns as big as steers and shells as big as trees
Out of the cold and foggy night came the British ship the Hood
And evry British seaman, he knew and understood
They had to sink the Bismark, the terror of the sea
- Sink the Bismark

And every British seaman, he knew and understood
They had to sink the Bismarck, the terror of the sea
Stop those guns as big as steers and those shells as big as trees
- Sugar-Coated Baby
When the last sole flicker of the sun goes down
And they turn the lights on all over town
That's when you see me walkin' Broad and Main
I'm gonna see my sugar coated baby
I'm just like a kitten, playin' with a string
When I'm a-holdin' that pretty little thing
She's as sweet as honey all the way around
- The Battle Of New Orleans
In eighteen-fourteen we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the might Mississipp'
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
And we caught the bloody British in the town of New Orleans
We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
- The Wild One
Give me my cycle with star-filled sky above
And a good lookin' woman with a heart full of love
I'll go to any honkytonk in any old town
'cause I am the wild one and I'll never settle down
I am the wild one
I am the wild one
I am the wild one, I'll never settle down
I got a gal in every town who claims she loves me so
- Two Red Lips and Warm Red Wine
Oh the two red lips and the warm red wine
Broke this busted heart of mine
I gotta roll on roll on down the line
With the two red lips and a busted heart
And the warm red wine
With a little Muscat I’m an old tomcat
Always scratching for another rat
A cat’s got nine lives and I’ve got one
- When It's Springtime In Alaska
I mushed from Port Barren through a blizzard of snow
Been out prospecting for two years or so
Pulled into Fairbanks the city was a boon
So I took a little stroll to the Red Dog Saloon
As I walked in the door the music was clear
The prettiest voice I had heard in two years
The song she was singin' made a man's blood run cold
When it's springtime in Alaska it's forty below
