- Agate Hill
Oh you weary restless heart
Peace come to you now
Still your wild and wishful soul
Calm your troubled brow
Loose your crippled body’s ties
Let your spirit soar
Friends and loved ones guiding you
- Christmas Collage
Oh come, oh come Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the son of God appear
- Coal Tattoo
Travelin' on down that coal town road
Listen to my rubber tires whine
Goodbye to buckeye and white sycamore
I'm leavin' you behind
Oh, I've been a coal miner all my life
Layin' down track in a hole
Got a back like ironwood, bent by the wind
- Eighteen Wheels and a Dozen Roses
Charlie's got a gold watch
Don't seem like a whole lot
After thirty years of drivin'
Up and down the interstate
But Charlie's had a good life
And Charlie's got a good wife
And after tonight she'll no longer
Be countin' the days
- Emmanuel
Emmanuel, Emmanuel
A child is born
A child is born
Sing glory unto God on high
Joy to all the world this night
And to all people, peace
And to all people, peace
- From A Distance
From a distance the earth looks blue and green
And the snow capped mountains white
From a distance the ocean meets the stream
And the eagle takes to flight
From a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It's the voice of hope it's the voice of peace
- Lonesome Standard Time
Do you feel a kindred spirit, to the sound of pouring rain?
Does your heart start to yearning when you hear a distant train?
If you'd like to take that train and ride, to someone left behind
You don't need the wind to tell you, you're on lonesome standard time
Do you sit alone and think about, an old love from the past?
Do you feel a bit more empty every time you raise your glass?
The memory of his kisses sends a shiver up your spine
- Love Travels
So I stand here and gaze across the ocean
Knowin' that I may not ever hold you
Quite the way I told you
But the distance won't silence my devotion
'Cause I believe there is still a way to reach out
In my heart there's no doubt
Love travels the miles upon the wings of angels
- Nobody's Gonna Rain On Our Parade
Well there's a blue moon hangin' in a small town sky
Nobody's listenin' to the band tonight
Nobody feels like dancin' in this sad cafe
Oh, but you and me baby we got somethin' to live for
One more step and we'll be out that door
I don't know where we're goin' but we're already on our way
The train is leavin' and it won't come back
- Soldier Boy
Bob Roebuck is my sweetheart's name,
He's off to the wars and gone;
He's fighting for his Nanny dear,
His sword is buckled on,
He's fighting for his own true love;
His foes he does defy;
He is the darling of my heart,
My Southern soldier boy.
- The Streets Of Your Town
There's a red Ford pickup following me headlights off too close to see
I feel you all around taking me down the streets of your town
Sweet magnolias just in bloom black light decals quarter moon
I thought I heard a howlin' sound calling out from the streets of your town
The pavement swells beneath my feet it's a oneway ticket no retreat
I'm a walking billboard looking to settle down
One of the lost and found on the streets of your town
