Got to New York this mornin', just about half-past nine
Got to New York this mornin', just about half-past nine
Hollerin' one mornin' in Avalon, couldn't hardly keep from cryin'

Avalon is my hometown, always on my mind
Avalon is my hometown, always on my mind
Pretty mama's in Avalon want me there all the time

Raise up baby, get your big leg off of mine
Raise up baby, get your big leg off of mine
It's so heavy made a good man change his mind

I asked you, baby, come and hold my head
I asked you, baby, come and hold my head
Send me away, said you'd rather see me dead

Standing on the mountain, far as I can see
Standing on the mountain, just far as I can see
Dark clouds above me, clouds all around poor me

Feeling low and weary, Lord, I've got a trouble in mind
Feeling low and weary, Lord, I've got a trouble in mind
Everything that gets me, everybody's so unkind

Well all you ladies gather 'round
That good sweet candy man's in town
It's the candy man
It's the candy man
He likes a stick of candy just nine inch long
He sells as fast a hog can chew his corn
It's the candy man

Casey Jones was a brave engineer
He told his fireman to not to fear
Says, "All I want, my water and my coal
Look out the window, see me drive wheel roll"

Early one mornin' came a shower of rain
'Round the curve I seen a passenger train
In the cabin was Casey Jones

Frankie was a good girl, everybody knows
She paid one hundred dollars, for Albert, a suit of clothes
He’s her man, but he did her wrong.

Frankie went down to the corner saloon, she ordered a glass of beer
She asked the barroom keeper, “Have my loving Albert been here?”
“He’s been here, but he’s gone again.”

Blues all on the ocean, blues all in the air;
Can't stay here no longer, I have no steamship fare.
When my earthly trials are over, cast my body out in the sea;
Save on the undertaker bill-- let the mermaids flirt with me!

I do not work for pleasure; earthly peace I'll see no more;
The only reason I work at all is to drive the wolf from my door.
When my earthly trials are over, cast my body out in the sea;

Mrs. Collins weeped, Mrs. Collins moaned,
to see her son Louis leavin' home
The angels laid him away
The angels laid him away,
they laid him six feet under the clay
The angels laid him away
Mrs. Collins weeped, Mrs. Collins moaned,
to see her son Louis leavin' home

О, Мэри, ты не плачь
Скажи марте, чтобы не стонать
Армия фараона утонула в Красном Море
О, Мэри, ты не плачь
Скажи марте, чтобы не стонать
Если бы я мог, я бы точно
Стою на скале, где стоял Моисей
Армия фараона утонула в Красном Море

There is preaching tonight, preaching tonight.
Preaching on the old camp grounds.
There is preaching tonight, preaching tonight.
Preaching on the old camp grounds.

There is singing tonight, singing tonight.
Singing on the old camp grounds.
There is singing tonight, singing tonight.

Gimme red lipstick and a bright purple rouge
A shingle bob haircut
and a shot of good boo'
Hurry down, sweet daddy, come blowin' your horn

You salty dog
Hey, hey, hey, you salty dog

Said, the big fish, little fish swimmin' in the water
Come back here, man, gimme my quarter

Says, God made a woman, he made 'em mighty funny
The lips 'round her mouth, just as sweet as any honey

Take this hammer and carry it to my captain, tell him I'm gone, tell him I'm gone, tell him I'm gone
Take this hammer and carry it to my captain, tell him I'm gone, just tell him I'm gone, I'm sure is gone

This is the hammer that killed John Henry, but it won't kill me, but it won't kill me, but it won't kill me
This is the hammer that killed John Henry, but it won't kill me, but it won't kill me, ain't gonna kill me

It a long ways from East Colarado, honey to my home, honey to my home, honey to my home
It a long ways to East Colarado, honey to my home, honey to my home, that where I'm going

Police officer, how can it be?
You can 'rest everybody but cruel Stack O' Lee
That bad man, oh, cruel Stack O' Lee
Billy de Lyon told Stack O' Lee, "Please don't take my life,
I got two little babies, and a darlin' lovin' wife"
That bad man, oh, cruel Stack O' Lee
"What I care about you little babies, your darlin' lovin' wife?
You done stole my Stetson1 hat, I'm bound to take your life"
