TREES OF HEAVEN
BORIS McCUTCHEON
WHO CUT DOWN THE TREES OF HEAVEN? WHO CUT DOWN THE TREES OF HEAVEN?
I DID, I DID
WHO CHOPPED DOWN THE CHINESE ELMS? WHO CHOPPED DOWN THE CHINESE ELMS?
I DID, I DID
WHEN I DONE IT, IT FELT GOOD, CAUSE I LET THE SUNSHINE IN, AND I GAVE MY PEACHES A FIGHTING CHANCE TO WIN
NOW WHO’S GONNA FELL THE ORANGE MAN? WHO’S GONNA FELL THE ORANGE MAN?
WE WILL, WE WILL
WHO’S GONNA SEND THE DEVIL PENCE, BACK TO HELL FOREVER HENCE?
WE WILL, WE WILL
WHEN WE DONE IT FELT GOOD, CAUSE WE LET THE SUNSHINE IN, AND WE GAVE OUR KIDS A FIGHTING CHANCE TO WIN
WHO DROVE OUT THE MONEY CHANGERS? WHO DROVE OUT THE MONEY CHANGERS?
HE DID, HE DID
JESUS IS MY SUNBEAM, JESUS IS MY SUNBEAM
AMEN, AMEN
WHEN HE DONE IT IT FELT GOOD CAUSE HE LET THE SUNSHINE IN AND HE GAVE MANKIND A FIGHTING CHANCE TO WIN
NOW WHO TORE DOWN THE BORDER WALL? WHO TORE DOWN THE BORDER WALL?
WE DID, WE DID
WHO GAVE MARIA A DRINK OF WATER? WHO GAVE MARIA A DRINK OF WATER?
WE DID, WE DID
WHEN WE DONE IT IT FELT GOOD CAUSE WE LET THE SUNSHINE IN AND WE GAVE THE POOR A FIGHTING CHANCE TO WIN
WHO SHOT THE DRONE FROM THE SKY SHOT IT THROUGH IT CRYSTAL EYE?
I DID, I DID
WHO HUNG THE TIRE FROM THE BOSQUE TREE? WHO HUNG THE TIRE FROM THE BOSQUE TREE?
I DID, I DID
WHEN I DONE IT IT FELT GOOD CAUSE I LET THE SUNSHINE IN AND I GAVE MY KIDS A FIGHTING CHANCE TO SWING
MY ORCHARD LADDER RINGS LIKE A BELL, MY ORCHARD LADDER RINGS LIKE A BELL
ONLY GOD CAN TELL, ONLY GOD CAN TELL
WHO SEES THROUGH YOUR TATTERS CLOTHES AND KNOWS THE COLORS OF YOUR SOUL?
HE DOES, HE DOES
AND WHEN HE DOES IT IT FEELS GOOD CAUSE HE LETS THE SUNSHINE IN AND HE GIVES YOUR LIGHT A FIGHTING CHANCE TO WIN
WHO CUT DOWN THE TREES OF HEAVEN? WHO CUT DOWN THE TREES OF HEAVEN?
I DID, I DID
WHO CHOPPED DOWN THE CHINESE ELMS? WHO CHOPPED DOWN THE CHINESE ELMS?

WHEN I DONE IT, IT FELT GOOD, CAUSE I LET THE SUNSHINE IN, AND I GAVE MY PEACHES A FIGHTING CHANCE TO WIN
DREAMIN' AND WORKIN'
BARD EDRINGTON V
THESE HANDS OF MINE ARE STRONG, STRONG LIKE AN OAK TREE, THEY HOLD LIFE AND TAKE LIFE AND FEED YOU AND ME
I LEARNED AS A YOUNG MAN, MY FATHER TAUGHT ME, HE SAID ”BUILD WHAT YOU CAN, TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILY”
DOWN IN ALABAMA, NEAR TUSKEGEE, WE WORKED LIKE GROWN MEN, LAUGHING AND CARE FREE
WITH NED WE BUILT A BRIDGE, ACROSS THAT CYPRESS SWAMP, THROUGH THE PALMETTOS ON THE ISLAND, THAT’S WHERE WE WOULD ROMP
I’M DREAMIN’ WHEN IM WORKIN’ AND WORKIN’ IN MY DREAMS
ITS A LONG WAY DOWN, MUCH FURTHER THAN IT SEEMS
I’M DREAMIN’ WHEN IM WORKIN’ AND WORKIN’ IN MY DREAMS
AS I STAND ON THIS BRANCH, I’LL BEND IN THE BREEZE
CRACKED HANDS BRUISED KNUCKLES OUT OF WHICH BLEED, THE THINGS THAT I WANT AREN’T ALWAYS WHAT I NEED
SO SON LIVE YOUR DREAMS, BE WHAT YOU WANT TO BE, YOUR YOUNG AND FREE TO CREATE YOUR REALITY
I SHALL LEAVE HAVING ENTERED A WORLD OF MORTALITY, EVERYTHING I’VE LEFT, IT SHALL SET ME FREE
SO HANDS DON’T FAIL ME KNOW, I’M RELYING ON THE, TO KEEP ME FROM FALLING OUT OF THIS TREE
I’M DREAMIN’ WHEN IM WORKIN’ AND WORKIN’ IN MY DREAMS
ITS A LONG WAY DOWN, MUCH FURTHER THAN IT SEEMS
I’M DREAMIN’ WHEN IM WORKIN’ AND WORKIN’ IN MY DREAMS
AS I STAND ON THIS BRANCH, ILL BEND IN THE BREEZE
SINGING GRASS
BORIS McCUTCHEON
ALONG THE GREEN RIVER, I DUELED FOR A LASS, HER NAME WAS SINGING GRASS
AND WHEN THE SMOKE LIFTED THE FRENCHMAN HAD PASSED AND I WON MY SINGING GRASS
ALTHOUGH I FAILED TO SPELL, I COULD SPEAK HER LANGUAGE WELL, AND I SPOKE WITH HER KIN FOR A WHILE
I TOLD THEM I WAS DYING AND MY HEART WAS BEATING FAST, FOR THE WOMAN NAMED SINGING GRASS
WE MARRIED IN THE ASPEN WHEN THE SPRING TIME WAS LAUGHING AND THE FAWNS TOTTERED IN THE WOODS
OVER THE GREAT MOUNTAINS WHERE NO WHITE MAN WONDERED, WHEREVER THE TRAPPING WAS GOOD
WE SET TRAPS TOGETHER ON THE EDGE OF A RIVER, AND I WRAPPED HER IN A GOLDEN PELT
AND YOU’LL NEVER KNOW HOW COMPLETE I FELT WHEN I WON MY SINGING GRASS
PICKING WILD GRAPES IN THE FALL WE DIDN’T HAVE A CARE AT ALL AND I WENT TO TOWN AND TRADED FOR SOME BEANS
SINGING GRASS WHISPERED “WITH YOU CHRIS ITS A DREAM, YOUR MY SUGAR AND YOUR MY CREAM”
“I FEEL A LITTEL FAINT, BUT IT’S NOTHING TO FEAR, LETS CONTINUE SALTING THE MEAT”
SHE FELL DOWN WITH THE FEVER AT MY FEAT, THE WOMAN NAMED SINGING GRASS
LAY DOWN, LAY DOWN, MY SINGING GRASS FOR I CANNOT BARE TO LOSE THE
TWO BABES IN THE CABIN WHITH EYES LIKE YOU AND YOUR FADING LIKE THE DEW
I TOOK THE LITTLE GIRLS ON A RIDE TO TOWN AND I BURIED THEIR MOTHER IN THE GROUND
AND YOU’LL NEVER KNOW THE PAIN I FOUND WHEN I LOST MY SINGING GRASS
ON THE BACK OF A MULE 3O YEARS COME TO PASS, NO MAN OR MOUNTAIN COULD KILL ME
AS SHE SANG OVER MY BODY THROUGH THE DESERT AND VALLEYS MY ANGEL SINGING GRASS
WELL I MAY BE THE REAPER OF YOUR DESTINY, BUT YOU WOULD NOT HAVE EVER HEARD OF ME
IF HER LIFE HAD BEEN SPARED I’D BE DUST IN THE AIR WITH THE ONE NAMED SINGING GRASS
IF HER LIFE HAD BEEN SPARED I’D BE DUST IN THE AIR WITH THE WOMAN NAMED SINGING GRASS
WHISKEY AND A WOODSTOVE
BARD EDRINGTON V
SET ME ON A MOUNTAIN, WITH A JUG IN MY HAND, I’LL DRINK MY WORRIES TO THE PROMISED LAND
FOR I’M BOUND TO TURN IT, TURN IT ALL AROUND, OR I’LL LIGHT A MATCH BOYS, BURN IT TO THE GROUND
BUT IT WON’T BE NOBODY’S FAULT BUT MY OWN, I CAME OUT THE WEEDS WHEN I WAS GROWN
WHISKEY AND A WOODSTOVE, CORN LIQUOR AND GUNS, WELL THE BOTTLES ALL EMPTY, AND THE SONG IS SUNG
LIKE A HORSE WITHOUT SHOES, AND NOWHERE TO RUN, WHISKEY AND A WOODSTOVE CORN LIQUOR AND GUNS
IM TROUBLE BOUND, THATS WHAT THEY SAY, “THAT BOY HE’S TROUBLE, BEEN IT ALL HIS DAY”
I GOT LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE, MOMMA SAYS “PUT IT DOWN. DON’T LEAVE IT LAYING AROUND SON, YOU’LL BURN THE HOUSE DOWN”
BUT IT WONT BE NOBODY’S FAULT BUT MY OWN, I CAME OUT THE WEEDS WHEN I WAS GROWN
WHISKEY AND A WOODSTOVE, CORN LIQUOR AND GUNS, WELL THE BOTTLES ALL EMPTY AND THE SONG IS SUNG
LIKE A HORSE WITHOUT SHOES, AND NOWHERE TO RUN, WHISKEY AND A WOODSTOVE CORN LIQUOR AND GUNS
FLINT HILLS
BARD EDRINGTON V
OUT OF THE EARTH THAT’S WHERE HE WAS BORN, HE’S WORKING HIS DOGS IN THAT PRAIRE MORN
CHASING DOWN THAT OLD WILD HARE, HE CAN HEAR THOSE HOWLS THROUGH THOSE FLINT HILLS
LONG DARK HAIR AND FARM GIRL CURVES, SHE’S PRAYING OVER HER SOLDIER WHO’S WAITING ON HER PRESERVES,
WAITING FOR THAT OLD TRAIN TO COME, LONG DOWN THE TRACKS IN MORGANTON
IN THE FLINT HILLS, IN THE FLINT HILLS
FOUR KIDS ON THE GROUND AND DOGS IN THE YARD, THEY NEVER KNEW LIFE COULD BE SO HARD
HUNGRY MOUTHS TO FEED THE WHOLE DAY THRU, BUT THAT’S WHAT KANSAS DOES TO YOU
IN THE FLINT HILLS, IN THE FLINT HILLS
OFF TO THE SOUTH TO MAKE A FRESH START, WHERE THE TREES TOUCH THE GROUND AND THE WATER’S FILLED WITH SALT
AND THE SWEAT, WHEN IT ROLLS, IT ROLLS IN THE NIGHT, THEY CAN’T HEAR THOSE HOWLS THAT THEY LEFT BEHIND
IN THE FLINT HILLS, IN THE FLINT HILLS
RUNNING THROUGH THE SWAMPS CHASING THAT OLD WILD BOAR, LIFE’S BEEN GOOD THEY CAN’T ASK FOR MUCH MORE
THE HOUNDS THEY RUN TO PAY THE BILLS, NOT LIKE IT WAS BACK IN THOSE FLINT HILLS
IN THE FLINT HILLS, IN THE FLINT HILLS
OUT OF THE BAIT SHACK, THAT’S WHERE I WAS BORN, THOSE ARE THE DAYS THAT I’VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR
WHEN WE’RE ALL GATHERED AROUND THE LAKE, LORD HE SHE COMES WITH HER CHOCOLATE CAKE
IN THE FLINT HILLS, IN THE FLINT HILLS
HORSES MADE OF WIND

RENDEZVOUS DUEL
BARD EDRINGTON V
SO TAKE ME BACK, TO YOUR BED, THE ONE WHERE WE CAN LAY OUR HEADS
AND I WILL TELL YOU, ALL MY STORIES, FOR I’VE BEEN GONE SO LONG
I RODE OUT ACROSS THE PRAIRIE, TRAPPED MORE PELTS THAN I COULD CARRY
I TRADED THEM ALL AT GREEN RIVER, WHERE I DUELED A MAN AT THE RENDEZVOUS
THERE WERE DAYS WHEN I GOT WEARY, MARCHING ACROSS THE DESERT WITH GENERAL KEARNY
THEY HOLED US UP ON A MOUNTAIN SIDE, THERE WE ALL PREPARED TO DIE
SO I SNUCK OUT UNDER A NEW MOON, THIRTY MILES BARE FOOT, I LOST MY BOOTSI LOOKED UP AT THAT MEXICAN MAN, AS HE LIGHTS A MATCH AND HE TAKES A DRAG
I KILLED MANY MEN BUT I’M NOT PROUD, THIER WAR CRIES, WELL THEY SEEMED SO LOUD
BUT REVENGE IS THE DEVIL, THIS I KNOW, YOU CAN DIG MY GRAVE, DIG IT DEEP AND LOW
THEY MAKE ME OUT, TO BE SOME HERO, BUT HAVE YOU SEEN A DOLLAR, CAUSE I’VE SEEN ZERO
TALL TALES, LIKE THE HIGHEST PEAK, SO COLD AND CLEAR LIKE THE MOUNTAIN STREAM
AND I FEEL BAD, FOR THE PEACHES, THE HOGANS WE BURNED AND THE SHOTS WE FIRED
THE ACRES OF CORN WE ATE, SO MANY DIED OUT OF HATE
SO TAKE ME BACK TO YOUR BED, THE ONE WHERE WE CAN LAY OUR HEADS
AND YOU CAN TELL ME ALL YOUR STORIES, FOR I’VE BEEN GONE SO LONG
CHILI LINE
BARD EDRINGTON V
I’VE NEVER LEFT THIS MOUNTAIN SIDE, I HEAR TALES OF A TRAIN THAT WE CAN RIDE
MOON SHINING ON MY WINDOW PANE, DADDY WAKES ME UP TO CATCH THE TRAIN, HEAD ON OUT IN THE POURING RAIN
OFF IN THE DISTANCE I CAN HEAR THE MOAN, LIKE A LOW RUMBLE AND A HAUNTING TONE, HAUNTING TONE GONNA CARRY ME HOME
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE I HEAR YOU WHISTLING THROUGH THE PINES
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE HAULING UP THAT STEEP INCLINE
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE SAY YOU’LL BE A FRIEND OF MINE
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE TAKE ME BACK TO ANOTHER TIME
AS WE GLIDE THROUGH THE SHADOWS OF THE MESA, WHERE THE SKY TURNS GOLD AND THE ROCKS PRIETA
MY FEET REST ABOVE THE RIVERS EDGE, RAVEN CALLS MY NAME FROM THE ROCKS LEDGE, I’M LIKE THE LAST ONE FROM THE NEST TO FLEDGE
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE I HEAR YOU WHISTLING THROUGH THE PINES
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE HAULING UP THAT STEEP INCLINE
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE SAY YOU’LL BE A FRIEND OF MINE
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE TAKE ME BACK TO ANOTHER TIME
AS THE RAILS ECHO OFF THE CANYON WALL, LIKE A MOTHER REPLIES TO A LOVING CALL
SUN SETS ON A NEW DAY, PATH AHEAD LEADS ME ON MY WAY, NEVER TO FEAR NEVER TO STRAY
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE I HEAR YOU WHISTLING THROUGH THE PINES
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE HAULING UP THAT STEEP INCLINE
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE SAY YOU’LL BE A FRIEND OF MINE
CHILI LINE OH CHILI LINE TAKE ME BACK TO ANOTHER TIME

BITTER FROST
SILVER BUDS, WITH SILK AND FELT, NO SNOW ON THE MOUNTAIN LEFT TO MELT
THE RIVERS TRICKLING, THE WAR IS ON, AND IF THEY WHITHER ALL HOPE IS GONE
PROTECT THE MEEK WHATEVER THE COST, PROTECT THEM FROM THE BITTER FROST

COMPOSE YOURSELF BELOW THE CLOUDS, THERE’S SOMETHING BORN INSIDE YOU KNOW
TAKE THIS DAY BEFORE IT CRACKS, THROW THE HATE AWAY, PUT THE LOVE BACK
PROTECT THE MEEK WHATEVER THE COST, SHIELD THEM FROM THE BITTER FROST
SILVER BUDS OPEN FOR THE BEES, THEY FAN THE WORLD WITH A BILLION WINGS
SINGING LIGHTLY WITH A HOLLY HUM, SO MANY VOICES YET TO COME
BUZZING “WE CAN DO THIS, YEAH WE CAN WING, IT’S TIME FOR THE STINGING TO BEGIN”
PROTECT THE MEEK WHATEVER THE COST, PROTECT THEM FROM THE BITTER FROST

I'VE BEEN THINKING
BARD EDRINGTON V
I THINK BABY THAT I’LL GO LIE DOWN, MY HEAD’S SPINNING AND MY FEAT ARE ON THE GROUND
JUST SOMETHING THAT I’VE BEEN THINKING
DROP IN THE BUCKET WON’T DRAIN THE WELL, BUT ANOTHER DRINK GONNA MAKE ME FEEL LIKE HELL
I GOT A WOMAN WITH A HEART OF GOLD, AFTER HER YOU KNOW THEY BROKE THE MOLD
IT’S JUST SOMETHING THAT I’VE BEEN THINKING
DROP IN THE BUCKET WON’T DRAIN THE WELL, BUT ANOTHER DRINK GONNA MAKE ME FEEL LIKE HELL
IV’E TAKEN ONE TOO MANY HITS TO THE HEAD, THERE’S THE ONE THAT ALMOST LEFT ME DEAD
JUST SOMETHING THAT I’VE BEEN THINKING, LORD I BETTER QUIT DRINKING
DROP IN THE BUCKET WON’T DRAIN THE WELL, BUT ANOTHER DRINK GONNA MAKE ME FEEL LIKE HELL
I THINK BABY THAT I’LL GO LIE DOWN, MY HEAD’S SPINNING AND MY FEAT ARE ON THE GROUND
JUST SOMETHING THAT I’VE BEEN THINKING
DROP IN THE BUCKET WON’T DRAIN THE WELL, BUT ANOTHER DRINK GONNA MAKE ME FEEL LIKE HELL
JANUARY
BORIS McCUTCHEON & BARD EDRINGTON V
LITTLE BEE FLYING AROUND LOOKING FOR A FLOWER (JANUARY, JANUARY)
SAYS “FREE ME FROM THIS JANUARY”
IT’S THE LONGEST MONTH I’VE EVER SEEN
I DON’T EVEN KNOW HOW IT CAN GET MORE MEAN
YOU CAN CALL ME A SNOWFLAKE, CALL ME A FAIRY
BUT THE WHEELS ARE COMING OFF SOMETHING SCARY
YOU CAN CRY FOR ME A FAKE NEWS RIVER, BUT WE’RE COMING FOR YOU ORANGE MAN, WE’RE COMING FOR YOU AND YOUR LIVER, ORANGE MAN
ALL OF MY HENS WERE ASSASSINATED
BY THE LOW DOWN WEASLE OF JANUARY
NOW YOU SAID IT WOULD BE A BETTER YEAR
AS LONG AS YOUR WHITE, NOT MUSLIM OR QUEER
YOUR GONNA WAKE UP IN A BATHTUB FULL OF ICE
YOU’VE BEEN MORE NAUGHTY THAN YOU’VE BEEN NICE
YOU CAN CRY FOR US A FAKE NEWS RIVER, BUT WE’RE COMING FOR YOU ORANGE MAN, WE’RE COMING FOR YOU AND YOUR LIVER, ORANGE MAN
I KEEP TELLING MYSELF THIS TOO SHALL PASS
BUT THE TURPIN TORTURE’S IN A DIFFERENT CLASS
IT’S THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG AND IT’S MELTING FAST
I FEEL BAD FOR THE CREATURES LEFT HOLDING THE BAG
NOW YOU SAY YOU WANT TO BE A LYING DICTATOR
OUR COUNTRY’S NOT A TOY YOU SPOILED FIRST GRADER
REDNECKS DOING DONUTS ON THE WHITE HOUSE LAWN
TIME TO CUT THE STRINGS ON PUTIN’S PAWN
YOU CAN CALL ME A SNOWFLAKE CALL ME A FAIRY
BUT THE WHEELS ARE COMING OFF SOMETHING SCARY
YOU CAN CRY FOR US A FAKE NEWS RIVER, BUT WE’RE COMING FOR YOU ORANGE MAN, WE’RE CMING FOR YOU AND YOUR LIVER, ORANGE MAN
WE WANT YOUR LIVER
FAULT LINE
BARD EDRINGTON V
I REMEMBER WALKING IN THE PARK, GAZING UP ON A CASTLE ON THE HILL
BOATS RIDES THRU THE CANALS, SINGING, DANCING DRINKING TO OUR FILL
AS WE EMERGED FROM THE DARK, DRUM BEATS IN MY HEART
SO MANY LIVES LIVED BELOW, AS WE WALKED HAND IN HAND ACROSS THE ZOCALO
BUT I’VE GOT YOUR LOVING ON MY MIND, AIN’T NO REASON TO WONDER WHY
OUR LOVE RUNS DEEPER THAN A FAULT LINE
OH WHEN THE EARTH BEGINS TO SHAKE, GONE IS THE FEELING OF HATE
WHEN THE WALLS FALL DOWN, BETTER OPEN UP THOSE PEARLY GATES
THEY ALL GO RUNNING TO THE SOUND, BEFORE THE DUST EVER HITS THE GROUND
ONE MILLION HANDS SEARCHING ALL AROUND, FOR A LONE CRYING CHILD THEY HAVE FOUND
BUT I’VE GOT YOUR LOVING ON MY MIND, AIN’T NO REASON TO WONDER WHY
OUR LOVE RUNS DEEPER THAN A FAULT LINE
OUR LOVE RUNS DEEPER THAN A FAULT LINE
SO MANY STONES LAID BY HAND, GODS READ THE STARS AND THEY GIVE COMMANDS
WHO GIVES THEIR LIFE UP TO THE SUN, ON THE GROUND WHERE THE KIDS ALL WOULD RUN
CACTUS HOLDS THE WIEGHT OF AN EAGLE AND A SNAKE, PERCHED ON DRY GROUND IN THE MIDDLE OF A LAKE
VISION TO BEHOLD IT DID TRANSPIRE, AND IT ALL BECAME A GRAND EMPIRE
BUT I’VE GOT YOUR LOVING ON MY MIND, AIN’T NO REASON TO WONDER WHY
OUR LOVE RUNS DEEPER THAN A FAULT LINE
OUR LOVE RUNS DEEPER THAN A FAULT LINE
OUR LOVE RUNS DEEPER THAN A FAULT LINE
OUR LOVE RUNS DEEPER THAN A FAULT LINE

BORIS McCUTCHEON & BARD EDRINGTON V
EVERYONE KNOWS LIFES A BALANCING ACT, IM TRYING TO BALANCE THINGS AND THATS A FACT

I’M TIRED OF THIS, I’M TIRED OF THE WAR
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE MIDDLE BETWEEN THE RICH AND THE POOR?

THE RADIO STILL PLAYED ROCK AND ROLL, THERE WAS TRUTH IN THE AIR THE SONGS STILL HAD SOUL
I’M TRYING TO BALANCE THINGS
I’M TRYING TO BALANCE THINGS
I’M TRYING TO BALANCE THINGS
I DON’T WANT TO TRY ANYMORE
I’M TIRED OF THE SHIP AND THE WHOLE SEASICK CREW, I’M TIRED OF THE RIGHT WING AND THE LEFT WING TOO

I’M TRYING TO BALANCE THINGS
I’M TRYING TO BALANCE THINGS
I’M TRYING TO BALANCE THINGS
I DON’T WANT TO TRY ANYMORE
I’M TIRED OF MASS EXTINCTIONS AND THE SCHIZOFRENIK SKIES

I’M TRYING TO BALANCE THINGS
I’M TRYING TO BALANCE THINGS
I’M TRYING TO BALANCE THINGS
I DON’T WANT TO TRY ANYMORE
WILD ROBBY
BORIS McCUTCHEON & BARD EDRINGTON V
WILD ROBBY AND THE UTAH BOYS, SET OUT RUNNING AND LEFT THEIR CHORES
LEFT THEIR FARMS AND THEIR MOMMAS TOO, IN FACT THEY LEFT EVERYTHING THEY KNEW

WILD ROBBY AND THE UTAH BOYS, WILD ROBBY AND THE UTAH BOYS
WILD ROBBY AND THE UTAH BOYS RAISING HELL AND MAKING NOISE, BUILDING UP A REPUTATION, STEALING INDIAN CORN WITHOUT HESITATION

STEALINGS WHAT THEY DID BEST, EVERYWHERE THEY WENT THEY LEFT A MESS
WILD ROBBY AND THE UTAH BOYS,WILD ROBBY AND THE UTAH BOYS
WILD ROBBY AND THE UTAH BOYS, THEY CARVED THEIR NAME INTO THE VOID, SAM HILL LOST AN EYE FROM AN OWLS CLAW, BILLY PULLED AN ARROW FROM HIS JAW
WILD ROBBY WENT OVER THAT WATERFALL, IF YOU LISTEN CLOSE YOU CAN HEAR HIM CALL
IT WAS IN LATE SPRING BY THE WHISPERING CAVE, ROBBY DISAPPEARED WITHOUT A TRACE
WILD ROBBY AND THE UTAH BOYS, WILD ROBBY AND THE UTAH BOYS
WILD ROBBY AND THE UTAH BOYS, FLOATING DOWN THE GATES OF LADOR ON A BUCKSKIN RAFT WITH COTTONWOOD OARS, NEVER TOLD THEIR MOMMAS WHAT THEIR RUNNING FOR
