Walking
(Donovan Leitch)

Walking, walking after you
I'm walking, walking after you
Walking, walking after you - ooh
Thinking, talking, walking
All my ways wit' you

Dreaming, dreaming over you
Dreaming, dreaming over you
Scheming, scheming what to do
Dreaming and a scheming
Spending all my dreams on you

Singing, singing for you
Moving and a going
Singing all my songs for you

Tap Turns On The Water
(Cameron/Korner)

Peak through the bathroom door
Did you ever - did you ever
See your sister in the raw
Did you ever - did you ever
Swear you could booze all night
Did you ever - did you ever
Sweatin' hard then you're turnin' white
Did you ever - did you ever
They're wrong so you're cutting out
Did you ever - did you ever
Back to the window and the war's gone out
Yes you did - you know you did

Tap turns on the water, see the waters flow
A corn makes a forest, watch the forest grow
Everything's behind you, everything's become
Come and ride a river, come and find the sun

Now's the time to get up and do it
Don't blame it to the right
When there's so much to be done
Now's the time to forget that you're through it
Grab time to do it right
'Cause the jubilee has come

Tap turns on the water, see the waters flow
A corn makes a forest, watch the forest grow
Tap turns on the water, see the waters flow
Now's the time to get up and do it
Now's the time to forget that you're through it
A corn makes a forest, watch the forest grow
Now's the time to get up and do it
Now's the time to forget that you're through it

Tap turns on the water, see the waters flow
A corn makes a forest, watch the forest grow
Tap turns on the water, see the waters flow
A corn makes a forest, watch the forest grow ....


Sixteen Tons
(Merle Travis)

Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's weak and a back that's strong

You load sixteen tons, and what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul"

You load sixteen tons, and what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

Hey hey hey hey ....

If you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta men didn't, and a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right don't get you, then the left one will

You load sixteen tons, and what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

originally performed by Tennessee 'Ernie' Ford (1955)
also by Don Harrison Band (1976)


Band Played The Boogie
(Reedman/Jarratt)

The high school hooker was once a good looker
The teenage queen, now she wants a gas cooker
The union-boss' busy buying odd stocks
The army's outta work, sold the countries on the rocks
Take it while it's there, don't grieve when it's gone
The band played Boogie and the people danced on

Super high, Superfly has gone underground
The king bought a car, had to trade in his crown
Andy Warhole made a movie about Peter Pan
And Miss Liberation has found herself a man
Take it while it's there, don't grieve when it's gone
The band played Boogie and the people danced on

The band played the Boogie and the people danced on
Band played the Boogie, band played the Boogie
Band played the Boogie, band played the Boogie
The band played the Boogie and the people danced on ....
