 Yellow Moon  [Hunter] 

        Anxious hope and thoughts of love will never let me down, 
        Not let me go 
        Inside, my heart's a cage of ice Loved and lost, 
        Still toss the lonely dice 
        I burned the whole night long my thoughts were never far from you 
        Love that locks and binds must die 
        But when it dies a part of you dies too. 

        Born, born, born upon the world the restless heart keeps flying, 
        Trying to become the heart of home. 
        Love, love, love, it picks you up and spins you round, 
        Sits you right back down where you belong. 

        I don't fit my hat sometimes, I get so full of clouds 
        Every time I pass your door I hear you cry out loud 
        Sometimes I look the same to you as you have looked to me 
        My eyes get filled so full of stars, I don't know when I leave 

        Born, born, born upon the world the restless heart keeps flying, 
        Trying to become the heart of home. 
        Love, love, love, it picks you up and spins you round, 
        Sits you right back down where you belong. 

        Love is like tha April rain that makes the harvest grow 
        And when it grows it's like the summer gold 
        Love is like the coloured leaves that drift down from the trees 
        One by one 'til every tale is told 

        Now if I go a dancing out across the yellow moon 
        I'll be home by morning if it doesn't come too soon 
        If you seek protection go and find a safer man 
        And if he can't give you what you want then come on by again. 

        Priestess of the sun and moon and goddess of the wind 
        You know too much to ever lose and not enough to win 
        Though you built your house upon the rock and not upon the sand 
        You're still looking out your window for another travelin' man. 

        Born, born, born upon the world the restless heart keeps flying, 
        Trying to become the heart of home. 
        Love, love, love, it picks you up and spins you round, 
        Sits you right back down where you belong. 
 

 Yonder's Wall   [?] 

        Darling look on yonder's wall 
        Hand me down my walking cane 
        Yes, look on yonder's wall 
        Hand me down my walking cane 
        I got to find me another woman 
        Baby yonder comes your man 

        Darling I know your man he went to war 
        I believe he fared mighty tough 
        Don't know how many men he killed 
        But I believe he killed enough 

        Ah do I love you baby 
        And I love you for myself 
        Fooling around now with you babe 
        I can't get nobody else 

        Yes now that's all right 
        All right for you 
        That's all right baby 
        Any way you do 
 
 

 You Ain't Woman Enough To Take My Man  [Loretta Lynn] 

        You come to tell me something, you say I ought to know 
        That he don't love me anymore and I have to let him go 
        Oh, you say you're gonna take him, but I don't think you can 
        'Cause you ain't woman enough to take my man 

        Oh, women like you they come a dime a dozen, 
        You can buy 'em anywhere 
        For you to get him I'll have to move over 
        And I'm gonna stay right here 
        Well it'll be over my dead body, you better get out while you can 
        'Cause you ain't woman enough to take my man 
 

 You Don't Have To Ask  [?] 

        If you wanna know what time it is, you don't have to ask 
        If you wanna know what something is, you don't have to ask 
        If you wanna know whats real or not, you don't have to ask 
        If you wanna know what time is now, you don't have to ask 
        You don't have to ask, you already know 

        If you wanna leave just close your eyes, you don't have to ask 
        If you wanna go and lose your mind, you don't have to ask 
        If it's peace that you're looking for 
        You got the key to every door, you already know 

        If there's a way out you'll find out and free all and be all beyond 
        You never wonder what sky you been under 
        That made you forget all this time 

        If you're looking for it, you don't have to ask 
        You can see it plain as day, you don't have to ask 
        If you try to find us true, just take a look at you, 
        You don't have to ask 
 

 Youngblood  [?] 

        I saw her standing on the corner, yellow ribbon in her hair 
        I knew at once I was a goner, said lookie there, lookie there 
        Youngblood, youngblood, youngblood, I can't get you out of my mind 

        I tried to talk, my tongue was fractured 
        I tried to walk, but I was lame 
        Could'nt stop myseld from shouting 
        What's your name, what's your name? 

        Crazy stuff, sure look tough, had to follow her all the way home 
        Things went bad, I met her dad 
        He said "You better leave my daughter alone" 

        I could'nt sleep that night for trying, I saw the rising of the sun 
        All night long my heart felt like crying 
        You're the one, You're the one 
 

 You Win Again  [Hank Williams] 

        The news is out, all over town that you've been seen, 
        Out runnin' 'round. 
        I know that I should leave her there, 
        But then I just can't go, you win again. 
        This heart of mine, could never see what everybody knows but me. 
        Just trustin' you was my great sin, I just can't go, Lord 
        You win again.  What can I do, Lord, You win again.
