Red is The Rose 04:09
lyrics
Come over the hills, my bonnie Irish lass Come over the hills to your darling You choose the road, love, and I'll make the vow And I'll be your true love forever Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows Fair is the lily of the valley Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne But my love is fairer than any 'Twas down by Killarney's green woods that we strayed When the moon and the stars they were shining The moon shone its rays on her locks of golden hair And she swore she'd love me forever Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows Fair is the lily of the valley Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne But my love is fairer than any It's not for the parting of my sister Kate It's not for the grieving of my mother It's all for the loss of my bonny Irish lass That my heart is breaking forever Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows Fair is the lily of the valley Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne But my love is fairer than any Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows Fair is the lily of the valley Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne But my love is fairer than any

Boston Harbor 06:10
lyrics
Used to stay up late Watching the ships in the night Seeing them come to port By the yard house light I knew they would free me They’d take me away But I’m stuck here landlocked Trapped by Boston’s Bay Oh Oh Baby What I’d do to caress your eye Don’t let this captain hat fool Its my confidence disguise Yeah Baby Will you be my crystal ship Take me off this pier and take me on a trip Back Home I saw a sailor He came from a far We sat long talking In a Smokey dim lit bar He told me with hope Find a woman that you love Hold her tight to your body and Thank the lord above Oh Oh Baby What I’d do to caress your eye Don’t let this captain hat fool Its my confidence disguise Yeah Baby Will you be my crystal ship Take me off this pier and take me on a trip Back Home When we had finished drinking He got up and left I ran out the door Only to find your treasure chest I looked at the lock and found no key Is it the attention that you love Or is it really me Oh Oh Baby What I’d do to caress your eye Don’t let this captain hat fool Its my confidence disguise Yeah Baby Will you be my crystal ship Take me off this pier and take me on a trip Back Home

What One Girl Said 03:26
lyrics
She knows what we feel Keeps the pain short But always real Oh yes the triumph of the will But it doesn't matter with the blood we spill One girl said I know Im alright I live tonight I live tonight But what about them that die tonight oh yes what about them Compassion seems to elude The love that is dilute Could you kill if you knew To understand like they do One girl said I know Im alright I live tonight I live tonight But what about them that die tonight oh yes what about them Can we put up our guns and not fight And love one another tonight Can we burry their dead and them ours So that we can heal our battle scars I see no race and no color Only children that love one another Isn't it odd that these lost Find love even at deaths cost One girl said I know Im alright I live tonight I live tonight But what about them that die tonight oh yes what about them Can we put up our guns and not fight And love one another tonight Can we burry their dead and them ours Can we put up our guns and not fight And love one another tonight Can we burry their dead and them ours

Dink's Song 02:26
lyrics
If I had wings like Noah's dove I'd fly up the river to the one that I love Fare three well, my honey fare three well I had a man, who was long and tall He moved his body like a cannon ball Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well Muddy river runs muddy and wild You can't give a bloody for my unborn child Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well I remember one evening in the pouring rain And in my heart there was an aching pain Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well

Cyclone 04:44
lyrics
Night time coffee and a morning star Like a pilot that’s gone too far No way out and no way home Your trapped with death all alone Playing cards and drinking gin Its Russian roulette and I can’t win Spin the chamber round and round Not knowing where deaths found But stuck so deep in the cyclone Like a restless sleep Place so dark the poets well They cant speak Im feet in the sand and hands on my head Im so far gone its all in your head oh yeah And when will I see you again I just don’t want to be your friend anymore, anymore Standing in chaos in the peaceful moon light Starring yelling at the night Discord laughs and it tastes so sweet The golden apple at her feet but But stuck so deep in the cyclone Like a restless sleep Place so dark the poets well They cant speak Im feet in the clouds and hands on my head Im so far gone you wish you were dead oh yeah And when will I see you again I just don’t want to be your friend anymore, anymore Im puddles of rain with reflections of you I wish there’s something I could do Had the chance to turn back time Id start last year and make you mine But I’m the cyclone Yeah I’m the cyclone And when will I see you again I just don’t want to be your friend anymore, anymore

O'l Smokey 02:10
lyrics
On top of old smokey all covered with snow I lost my true lover for courting too slow For courting's a pleasure and parting's a grief And a false hearted lover is worse than a thief For a thief he will rob you and take all you have But a false hearted lover will take you to the grave the grave will decay you and turn you to dust there just isn't one girl that a poor boy can trust So come all your lovers and listen to me Dont place your affections on a green willow tree For the leaves they will wither and the roots they will die And you will be forgotten and never know why On top of old smokey all covered with snow I lost my true lover for courting too slow

Broken Down Soldier 06:18
lyrics
Two long years we wandered this road And you were always by my side We both loved each other dearly Never thought we’d loose our stride We had our fights but we both knew That neither of us was to blame But now as we lay here sad and lonely No warm body feels the same And Ive seen fire on the mountain Ive seen the storms on the sea Ive heard the starving of the hungry But I never thought I’d see you cry over me One drunk night I lost my grip And broke your trust like lovers fear It was hard to make it right with your mama Lost your daddies respect that year And I’ve seen fire on the mountain I’ve seen the storms on the sea I’ve heard the starving of the hungry But I never thought I’d see you cry over me But then I signed that pen and paper You did know to be angry or proud Kissed me good by and said your wait dear But know I’m back in a burial shroud And We’ve seen fire on the mountain We’ve seen the storms on the sea We’ve heard the starving of the hungry But I never thought I’d see you cry over me And I’ve seen fire on the mountain I’ve seen the storms on the sea I’ve heard the starving of the hungry But I never thought I’d see you cry over me

Virgins Deadly Curse 05:26
lyrics
I see your ghost tonight It gave me quite a fright I had not seen you in so long And so I wrote this song Oh brother can you hear me I wish that you were near me But the archer she has spoken You life line it was broken Tonight I see your Ghost Once again Artemis is host To this nights bitter end I will see you my friend One hundred and forty three nights I burned the midnight light You were lost but now your found Yet your still not around When February came In March I was to blame Waxing waning my heart straining I can see your body fading Tonight I see your Ghost Once again Artemis is host To this nights bitter end I will see you my friend I sit like stagnant sand Caught on a spit of land Surrounded but all alone With no one to carry me home Our world it is not pure Tainted without a cure Id trade it all for you I don’t know what else to do Tonight I see your Ghost Once again Artemis is host To this nights bitter end I will see you my friend

The Parting Glass 02:26
lyrics
Of all the money that e'er I had I spent it in good company And of all the harm that e'er I've done Alas it was to none but me And all I've done for want of wit To memory now I can't recall So fill to me the parting glass Goodnight and joy be with you all And of all the comrades that e'er I had They are sorry for my going away And all the sweethearts that e'er I had They would wish me one more day to stay But since it calls unto my lot That I should rise and you should not I'll gently rise and softly call Goodnight and joy be with you all A man may drink and not be drunk A man may fight and not be slain A man may court a pretty girl And perhaps be welcomed back again A time to rise A time to fall A time to drink And a time to brawl I will gently rise and softly call Goodnight and joy be too you all Goodnight and joy be too you all
