- 500 Miles
If you miss the train I'm on, you will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles,
a hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles,
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles.
Lord I'm one, Lord I'm two, Lord I'm three, Lord I'm four,
Lord I'm 500 miles from my home.
500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles, 500 miles
- 75 Septembers
In the year of the yellow cab
In the shadow of the great world war
The third kid grandmom had
Came into this world
On a rolling farm in maryland
When wilson was the president
And summer blew her good-bye through the trees
- A 'Soalin'
Hey ho, nobody home, meat nor drink nor money have I none
Yet shall we be merry, Hey ho, nobody home.
Hey ho, nobody home, Meat nor drink nor money have I none
Yet shall we be merry, Hey ho, nobody home.
Hey Ho, nobody home.
Soal, a soal, a soal cake, please good missus a soul cake.
An apple, a pear, a plum, a cherry,
- All My Trials
All my trials Lord, soon be over.
I had a little book was given to me,
And every page spelled Liberty.
All my trials Lord, soon be over.
If religion were a thing that money could buy,
The rich would live and the poor would die.
- Because All Men Are Brothers
Because all men are brothers wherever men may be
One Union shall unite us forever proud and free
No tyrant shall defeat us, no nation strike us down
All men who toil shall greet us the whole wide world around.
My brothers are all others forever hand in hand
Where chimes the bell of freedom there is my native land
My brother's fears are my fears yellow white or brown
- Boa Constrictor
I'm being swallowed by a boa constrictor
I'm being swallowed by a boa constrictor
I'm being swallowed by a boa constrictor
And I don't like it very much!
Oh no, oh no, he swallowed my toe,
He swallowed my toe
Oh gee, oh gee, he's up to my knee,
- Cruel War
G Em Am Bm
The cruel war is raging, Johnny has to fight
C Am G C G
I want to be with him from morning till night.
Em Am Bm
I want to be with him, it grieves my heart so.

Won't you let me go with you?
- Don't think twice, it's all right
It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe,
It don't matter, anyhow.
And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe,
If you don't know by now.
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn,
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm travelin' on,
Don't think twice it's all right.
- Early In The Morning
Well early in the morning, about the break of day,
I ask the Lord, "Help me find the way!"
Help me find the way to the promised land
This lonely body needs a helping hand
I ask the Lord to help me please find the way.
When the new day's a dawning, I bow my head in prayer.
I pray to the Lord, "Won't you lead me there?"
- El Salvador
There's a sunny little country south of Mexico
Where the winds are gentle and the waters flow
But breezes aren't the only things that blow
In El Salvador
If you took the little lady for a moonlight drive
Odds are still good you'd come back alive
But everyone is innocent until they arrive
- Hangman
Slack your rope hangman, slack it for a while
I think I see my father comin' ridin' many a mile
Father have you brought me hope or have you paid my fee
Or have you come to see me hangin' from the gallows tree?
I have not brought you hope, I have not paid your fee
Yes, I have come to see you hangin' from the gallows tree
- Hurry Sundown
My seed is sown now, my field is plowed;
My flesh is bone now, my back is bowed.
(Chorus:)
So hurry, sundown, be on your way,
And hurry me a sun-up from this beat-up sundown day.
Hurry down, sundown, be on your way;
Weave me tomorrow out of today.
Tomorrow's breeze now, blows clear and loud;
- I'd Rather Be In Love
Ocean breeze, rum on ice, lazy days and party nights
Here I am in paradise, I'd rather be in love.
Golden sun, silver sand, careless touch of a stranger's hand
I'll be rested, I'll be tanned, I'd rather be in love
I've had more fun on one rainy night
When you were there to call my name and hold me tight
Than a lifetime in this coastal scene
- If I Had A Hammer
If I had a hammer,
Id hammer in the morning
Id hammer in the evening,
All over this land
Id hammer out danger,
Id hammer out a warning,
Id hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters,
- Inside
Let's say you're at a pie contest, let's say that you're the judge
And there's lemon, lime and watermelon rind,
And one that looks like fudge
You can't tell which pie you like the best
If you only eat the crust
In order to complete the test a bite of filling is a must
(A bite of filling is a must)
- Jane, Jane
Hey Hey (Jane, Jane), my Lord and Lord (Jane, Jane)
I'm a gonna buy (Jane, Jane), three mockin' birds (Jane, Jane)
One for to whistle (Jane, Jane), one for to sing (Jane, Jane)
One for to do (Jane, Jane) most any little thing (Jane, Jane)
Chorus:
Children go where I send thee, how shall I send thee
Hey Hey, my Lord and Lord
- Leaving On a Jet Plane
Peter, Paul and Mary - Leaving On a Jet Plane
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go,
I'm standing here outside your door,
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye.
But the dawn is breakin',
It's early morn,
The taxi's waitin'
- Long Chain On
One night as I lay on my pillow,
Moonlight as bright as the dawn
I saw a man come a walking,
He had a long chain on.
I heard his chains a clankin',
They made a mournful sound,
Welded around his body,
Draggin' along the ground.
- No Easy Walk To Freedom
Brother Martin was walkin with me,
And every step I heard liberty
Tho he's fallin', come a million behind!
Glory, Hallelujah, gonna make it this time!
chorus:
No easy walk to freedom,
No easy walk to freedom,
- Norman Normal
There's someone, you've got to meet him
An' you see him every day,
His face will look familiar,
But in a most unusual way.
He's Norman Normal, I said he's Norman Normal,
You know he's Norman Normal, He looks a lot like you.
- Old Coat
Take off your old coat and roll up your sleeves,
Life is a hard road to travel, I believe.
I look to the east, I look to the west,
A youth asking fate to be rewardin'.
But fortune is a blind god, flying through the clouds,
and forgettin' me on this side of Jordan.
- Polly Von
I shall tell of a hunter whose life was undone
By the cruel hand of evil at the setting of the sun
His arrow was loosed and it flew through the dark,
And his true love was slain as the shaft found it's mark.
Chorus:
She'd her apron wrapped about her and he took her for a swan
But it's oh and alas it was she, Polly Von
- Pretty Mary
My horses ain't hungry, they won't eat your hay,
So fare thee well darlin' I'm goin' away.
Your parents don't like me, they say I'm too poor,
They say I'm not worthy to enter your door.
Pretty Mary, Pretty Mary, would you think me unkind,
If I were to see you and tell you my mind?
- Puff, The Magic Dragon
Puff (The Magic Dragon)
Peter, Paul & Mary
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee,
Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff,
And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff.
Oh! Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
- Quit Your Low Down Ways
You can read out your bible
You can fall down on your knees, pretty momma
And pray to the Lord but it ain't gonna do you no good
'Cause you gonna need
You gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't stop your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
- San Francisco Bay Blues
I got those blues where my baby
Left me down by the Frisco Bay, yea-yea
An ocean liner came and took her away, yea-yea
I didn't mean to treat her bad,
She was the best friend I ever had,
She said goodbye, she made me cry,
She made me wanna lay down my head and die...I
- Single Girl
When I was a single girl, dressed in clothes so fine,
Now I am a married girl, go ragged all the time
Wish I was a single girl again
Wish I was a single girl again
When I was a single girl, had shoes of the very best kind
Now I am a married girl, go barefoot all the time
Wish I was a single girl again
- Stewball
Oh Stewball was a racehorse, and I wish he were mine.
He never drank water, he always drank wine.
His bridle was silver, his main it was gold.
And the worth of his saddle has never been told.
Oh the fairgrounds were crowded, and Stewball was there
But the betting was heavy on the bay and the mare.
And a-way up yonder, ahead of them all,
Came a-prancin' and a-dancin' my noble Stewball.
- The Eddystone Light
Oh, me father was the keeper of the eddystone light
And he slept with a mermaid one fine night
From this union there came three
A porpoise and a porgy and the other was me
Yo ho ho
The wind blows free
Oh for the life on the rolling sea
- The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love
To the dark and the empty skies
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
- The Last Thing On My Mind
It's a lesson too late for the learnin'
Made of sand, made of sand
In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin'
In your hand, in your hand
Are you goin' away with no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind?
Well, I should have loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind
- The Love in You
My Momma told me at the age of seven
Everything that's good in life is a gift from heaven
And since we met, I'd have to bet that's true
There are times I look into your eyes when
I can see the light of Love inside comin' shinin' through
And I love that love in you
I don't how to thank a mystery
- The Marvelous Toy
When I was just a wee little lad
Full of health and joy
My father homeward came one night
And gave to me a toy
A wonder to behold it was
With many colors bright
And the moment I laid eyes on it
- The Rising of the Moon
Ah then tell me Sean O'Farrell
Tell me why you hurry, so.
Hush my boy now hush and listen
And his eyes were all aglow.
I bear orders from the captain
Get ye ready quick and soon
For the pikes must be together
- Three Ravens
Три ворона сели на ветку сосны,
Пей, пей, подливай, всё до дна выпивай,
Три ворона сели на ветку сосны,
Не зевай.
Три ворона сели на ветку сосны,
И были они, как сажа, черны,
Не зевай, запевай, пой, пой, пей, пей, подливай.

- Weave Me The Sunshine
They say that the tree of loving
Shine on me again
They say it grows on the bank of the river of suffering
Shine on me again, and
[Chorus:]
Weave, weave, weave me the sunshine out of the falling rain
Weave me the hope of a new tomorrow, fill my cup again
- Whiskey In The Jar
As I was a goin' over Gilgarra Mountain
I spied Colonel Farrell and his money he was countin'
First I drew me pistols, and then I drew me a rapier, sayin'
"Stand and deliver for I am your bold deceiver"
Mush-a-ring-um duram da
Whack fol the daddy O
Whack fol the daddy O
