Hush little baby, don't say a word
Pappas gonna buy you a mockingbird

If that mockingbird don't sing
Pappas gonna buy you a diamond ring

If that diamond ring turns brass
Pappas gonna buy you a lookin glass

If that lookin glass gets broke
Pappas gonna buy you billy goat

If that billy goat don't pull
Pappas gonna buy you a cart and bull

If that cart and bull turns over
Pappas gonna buy you a doggie named rover

If that dog named rover don't bark
Pappas gonna buy you a horse and cart

If that horse and cart fall down
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town

Love Is A Burning Thing
And It Makes A Fiery Ring
Bound By Wild Desire
I Fell Into A Ring Of Fire

CHORUS:
I Fell Into A Burning Ring Of Fire
I Went Down, Down, Down
And The Flames Went Higher

And It Burns, Burns, Burns
The Ring Of Fire
The Ring Of Fire

I Fell Into A Burning Ring Of Fire
I Went Down, Down, Down
And The Flames Went Higher

And It Burns, Burns, Burns
The Ring Of Fire
The Ring Of Fire

The Taste Of Love Is Sweet
When Hearts Like Ours Meet
I Fell For You Like A Child
Oh, But The Fire Went Wild

CHORUS
I Fell Into A Burning Ring Of Fire
I Went Down, Down, Down
And The Flames Went Higher
Cool New Version of Johnny Cash
And It Burns, Burns, Burns
The Ring Of Fire
The Ring Of Fire

I Fell Into A Burning Ring Of Fire
I Went Down(down), Down(down), Down(down)
And The Flames Went Higher Higher Higher

And It Burns, Burns, Burns
The Ring Of Fire
The Ring Of Fire

And It Burns, Burns, Burns

The Ring Of Fire

The Ring Of Fire
Oh Yeah!
The Ring Of Fire

She is benediction
She is addicted to thee
She is the root connection
She is connecting with he

Here I go and I don't know why
I fell so ceaselessly
Could it be he's taking over me?

I'm dancing barefoot
Heading for a spin
Some strange music draws me in
Makes me come on like some heroine

She is sublimation
She is the essence of thee
She is concentrating on he
The chosen of she

Here I go and I don't know why
I spin so ceaselessly
Could it be he's taking over me?

I'm dancing barefoot
Heading for a spin
Some strange music draws me in
Makes me come on like some heroine

She is recreation
She intoxicated by thee
She has the slow sensation
That he is levitating with she

Here I go and I don't know why
I spin so ceaselessly
Did I lose my sense of gravity?

I'm dancing barefoot
In mid-air I spin
Some strange music draws me in
Makes me come on like some heroine

Oh God, I fell for you
Oh God, I fell for you
Oh God, I fell for you
Oh God, I fell for you

I want some sugar in my bowl
I want a little sweetness
down in my soul
I could stand some lovin' Oh so bad
Feel so lonely and I feel so sad
I want a little steam on my clothes
Maybe I could fix things up so they'll go
Whatsa matter Daddy
Come on, save my soul
Drop a little sugar in my bowl
I ain't foolin'
Drop a little sugar in my bowl
Well I want a little sugar in my bowl
Well I want a little sweetness down in my soul
You been acting strangely I've been told
Move me daddy
I want some sugar in my bowl
I want a little steam on my clothes
Maybe I can fix things up so they'll go
Whatsa matter Daddy
Come on save my soul
Drop a little sugar in my bowl
I ain't foolin
Drop some sugar- yeah- in my bowl.

(Grazie a Andrea per questo testo)

Go, leave, she's better than me
Or at least she is stronger
She will make it last longer
It's nice for you

Go, leave, don't come back
No more am I for the taking
But I can't say that my heart's not aching
It's breaking in two

I remember days
When we laughed a lot
Those they weren't so good
I soon forgot

We could sit and talk till words
Coming out our ears
Not just for days or weeks or months
But it's been years
And here they come, here they come my tears

So go, leave, you said goodbye
But could it be you were stalling
Hearts have a way of calling
When they've been true

Darling, remember
When you come to me
I'm the pretender
I?m not what I?m supposed to be

But who could know if I'm a traitor?
Time's the revelator

They caught Katy
And left me a mule to ride
The fortune lady
Came along, she walked beside

But every word seemed to date her
Time's the revelator, the revelator

Up in the morning
Up and on the ride
Drive into Corning
And all the spindles whine

And everyday is getting straighter
Time's the revelator

Leaving the valley
Fucking out of sight
I?ll go back to Cali
Where I can sleep out every night

And watch the waves, and move the fader
Time's the revelator, the revelator

Queen of fakes and imitators
Time's the revelator

Goodbye Daddy Blues — Ma Rainey (covered By Allison Moorer) [slow blues in A]

Met my man this morning, standing in the door
When I got back he said 'I don't want you no more'
Goodbye — Goodbye, Daddy, Goodbye

Can't always tell - you treat 'em right
Your man go out from you, stay out all day and night
Goodbye — Goodbye, Daddy, Goodbye

That man wrote me a letter, said 'Mama please come home'
When I got home last night, found my Daddy had gone
Goodbye — Goodbye, Daddy, Goodbye

Da da da da da da da... etc
Goodbye — Goodbye, Daddy, Goodbye

Ain't got nobody to tell my troubles to
Lay down in my bed and cried the whole night 'bout you
Goodbye — Goodbye, Daddy, Goodbye

Oh goodbye Daddy, Daddy please tell me goodbye
If you don't want me, Daddy, Mama'll sure lay down and die
Goodbye — Goodbye, Daddy, Goodbye

Da da da da da da da... etc
Goodbye — Goodbye, Daddy, Goodbye

She never says a thing about a bad situation,
Some say that's all she knows,
She looks for the question to the answer of the prayer,
She knows where she goes,
Her worldly possessions could vanish without a trace,
Just some dishes, some pans, some clothes,
And so she's turning the pages of an undying faith,
She knows where she goes,
Her window is open,the weather comes in,
The door way ( missing word) as it blows,
She stairs through her memories in the places she's been,
She knows where she goes,
She's so full of fire but she carries no torch,
She (missing word) for those,
And she can walk out the swing door and never leave the porch,
She knows where she goes,
She washes her hands in the cold dark water,
Turning from something she knows,
She longs to be free, but her reflection has got her,
She knows where she goes;
oh she knows where she goes

Come all you broken hearted come
And lay your burden down
Come kings and queens, come royalty
Surrender up your crown

Come empty handed, come with nothing
Of your own to claim
Come naked, poor, come like a child
To ride the orphan train

Come ride, ride on the orphan train
Put your ear to the track, you can hear your name
Come ride, ride on the orphan train
It'll take you all the way home

The way is narrow, it is steep
That brings you to the door
But love awaits there to embrace
Your heart forevermore

Come ride, ride on the orphan train
Put your ear to the track, you can hear your name
Come ride, ride on the orphan train
It'll take you all the way home

Come you abandoned, you forsaken
Friendless and alone
Come refugees left homesick for
Some place you've never known

Here princes, paupers, criminals
And saints are all the same
No more or less than God's beloved
Child aboard this train

Come ride, ride on the orphan train
Put your ear to the track, you can hear your name
Come ride, ride on the orphan train
It'll take you all the way home

Come ride, ride on the orphan train
I put my ear to the track and I heard my name
Come ride, ride on the orphan train
It'll take us all the way home

Where is my love
Where is my love
Horses galloping
Bring him to me

Where is my love
Where is my love
Horses running free
Carrying you and me

Where is my love
Where is my love

Safe and warm
So close to me
In my arms
Finally

There is my love
There is my love
Horses galloping
Bringing him to me

Where is my love
Where is my love

I'm looking for blue eyes
Has anyone seen him
Don't you tell me
He gave up on me
I'm looking for blue eyes
I've got to find him
Cause something tells me
He's looking for me

There was a time when blue eyes said he'd love no other
His one and only love he swore I'd be
There was a time when his blue eyes saw clearer than mine did
Storms and rain, tears and pain, bring me back his way

Looking for blue eyes
Has anyone seen him
No don't you tell me
He gave up on me
I'm looking for blue eyes
I've got to find him
Cause something tells me
He's looking for me

I'm looking for blue eyes
Has anyone seen him
