From the lakes of Pontchartrain To the lakes of Coeur d’Alene To the lakes of Michigan Im going home again Which way did she go To find her way home I know we must be close I think I see the shore Chorus So the Story Goes About two lovers about each other So the Story Goes You’re more precious than gold Never fade from my memory Live a river flows to the sea This feeling inside of me From underneath the roots of the trees Like a perfect skipping stone Trying to find its way home I’ll never be alone Cause this love is all I know Chorus So the story goes You’re more precious than gold So the Story goes of love waiting to unfold So the Story goes My love I’ve never told So the Story Goes You’re more precious than gold

Lucky Man 03:20
Chorus Are you gonna hold my hand tonight, are you gonna hold my hand? We’ve been walking in the pale moonlight and I feel like a lucky man Work so hard in the fields all day, aint got a dollar to show But the nights with lee on the walks with me, That don’t matter anymore Chorus Smile so bright, it outshines the stars You’ve changed my life without even trying And you’ll probably never know Chorus Please keep me warm when the work is done Get ready for the long winter months They go fast just remember times past In the summer months at dusk Chorus When the springtime comes, will you be there after last sign of winters snow? I sit back and I tip my glass To my backwoods country girl All I need is your love, and I feel like a lucky man Chorus

County Line 04:44
He’ll mosey on, sunshine or rain, can’t keep his mind, off of her face. But she’ll ramble on, no matter her fate. It guides her along, lest she forget the way Chorus: Lay your head down, end of the day, Dream baby, dream. So far away. With renewed imagination, all the scenes you create. Like the clouds against blue skies, millions of shapes. He set out to wander, only made it one county away, That’s where the tire blew out, so that’s where he stayed. Chorus (x3)

Well all in all I’m a little bit far away, One foot here, the other in some disreality. I don’t mind, ‘cause it aint no burden to bear. So many different places to go, so many ways to challenge- The nature of everything we know. We all got our secrets, buried in some place behind our eyes, And as the sun is sinkin’ low, it’s reminding me that someday I’ll be gone. But I don’t mind, it aint no burden to bear. We all got to keep on keeping on, you wanna end up with yours, -you gotta get on up and move yourself along. Bridge: I was brought up to believe, we’re all together in this crazy world. Mixed up as it is, and falling apart, we spin as one around a lonely sun. And every day I pray, that we will find a way, to somehow learn to get along I used to think that your love held the key, but love alone may not be enough… Not be enough… That place where I escape to, a place where the light of love conquers all. Please, don’t you get me wrong, I know there are two sides to it all… And I don’t mind, ‘cause it aint no burden to bear. Every Yin’s got its Yang, Every up’s got its down, aint it strange how it balances out?

Arbutus 05:17
Smoking Turkish cigarettes, you know I could not forget Rowing on the lake just you and me It was back in 99, the sun beat down the waves collide With a daisy tucked down tight behind your ear Chorus: Oh Dandelion, you’ve confused me this time How did we get from there to here? Oh Dandelion, you are set deep in my mind Back in 99 on the lake, so clear On the lake so clear They say that futures coming, and you can’t hide from it From what supposed to be, so let your fear subside Its like an avalanche falling down the mountainside Or a westbound train with no end in sight The future becomes the past before your eyes We learn from our mistakes but they keep coming down the line Chorus All the things we’ve said and done, all the things you’ve overcome Don’t mean very much to you today We learn from our mistakes, choose the path we take In this life we keep on learning until we move on The future becomes the past before your eyes We learn from our mistakes but they keep coming down the line Chorus

Haybaled 04:34
You’ve gone and left without a trace Feels like you’ve kicked me in the face Well now make no mistake honey baby Cause you only want what you can take Chorus: You only want me when you’re lonely Any old blind dog can see You only want me when you’re lonely But sometimes you hypnotize me Sometimes you hypnotize me Someone needs to put you in your place All of the fun is in the chase I think I made a big mistake last night When I went back to your place Chorus It's time to roll in the hay what do you say This barn is filled with the haze There’s nothing but coals left in the fireplace It's time to roll in the hay

One Turn 03:44
We are the daughters, and the sons of tomorrow, We are the blood that makes the heart beat. We must fight… rage against oppression Can’t you see they mean to make here a police state? Chorus: I got a fear, something here is wrong I swear. Everybody got to learn, you don’t get another turn, no…(x2) All around the world there be wrong a-doin’ Who we gonna get to make it right? ‘cause all that evil needs to conquer all creation, is for the good folks here, only but to stand aside. (chorus) All around the world folks are starvin’ and sufferin’ they wait in vain for some lonely savior. And now the sun no longer brightens up their daytime. The moon no longer cools downtrodden bones. (chorus x2)

Rabbit Hole 03:42
Not long ago when the circus came to town Oh you know where I’ll be found Somewhere in the house of mirrors Where I can disappear And your reflection affects everything And nothing ever seems the same Looking all around this purple room How could we know that it would end so soon? Chorus: With a bottle of wine and a blood red kazoo Velvet top hat and a handlebar mustache Come gather ‘round, the Ringmaster shouts Then he whispers and didn’t even make a sound Sometime between midnight and first light of daybreak The devil showed herself and I doubt that is was fate All she wanted was my everlasting soul Sliding down, stuck in this rabbit hole As she softly whispered my name I could feel my blood boil in my veins Now nothing but that memory remains Drinking whiskey, just trying to kill the pain Chorus

I set out from Ypsilanti, left my home that two room shanty Headed for the country of the gold My daddy said now don’t you go with that woman son she’ll rob your soul Should have listened to my daddy and now I know Panned for gold and made a life, earned some dough and found a wife The hard time ahead I didn’t know Who would have thought when we’d get back She’d take that kitchen knife and find my back Should have listened to my daddy and it goes to show Chorus Don’t treat me like a fool Don’t tell me to believe in things you know aint true Don’t think that you’ve won, because you’re the one who’s gone And please don’t treat me like such a fool Chorus Now I’m back in the Mitten State One less wife and life is great Traveled around the country and now I know Take what you’re told with a grain of salt She’ll take your heart and then she’ll walk Telling lies as she walks right out the door Telling lies as she walks right out the door

Early one morning before the sun could shine I was walking down the street not feeling so fine Saw two men with a bottle between them And this is the song that I heard them singing Chorus Lord protect us, saint preserve us We’ve been drinking whiskey before breakfast Passed by the steps where they were sittin’ Couldn’t believe how drunk they were getting’ Said old man you’ve been drinking long Long enough to be singing this song Chorus Passed me the bottle said take a little sip It felt so good, I just couldn’t quit Took a little more, next thing I knew There were three of us singing this tune Chorus One by one everybody came down Heard a ruckus and they all came around Pretty soon all the streets were a ringing Sound of the people laughing and singing Chorus
