1. _ Pretty Polly
Polly, pretty polly, come go along with me
Polly, pretty polly, come go along with me
Before we get married some pleasure to see
She got up behind him and away they did ride
She got up behind him and away they did ride
Over the hills and the valleys so wide
They rode a little further and what did they spy
They rode a little further and what did they spy
But a new-dug grave with a spade lying by
Oh willy, oh willy, i'm scared of your ways
Oh willy, oh willy, i'm scared of your ways
Scared you might lead my poor body astray
Polly, pretty polly, you've guessed just about right
Polly, pretty polly, you've guessed just about right
I've dug on your grave the best part of last night
And he stabbed her in the heart and the heart-blood did flow
And he stabbed her in the heart and the heart-blood did flow
Into her grave pretty polly did go
He threw a little dirt over her and started for home
He threw a little dirt over her and started for home
Leaving nothing behind but the wild birds to moan
And it's debt to the devil, and willy must pay
And it's debt to the devil, and willy must pay
For killing pretty polly and running away

2. _ Milk And Honey
Gold and silver is the autumn
Soft and gentle are her skies
Yes i know, are the answers
Written in my true love's eyes
Autumn's leaving, winter's coming
I think that i'll be moving on
I've got to leave him and find another
I've got to sing my heart's true song
Round and round the burning circle
All the seasons, one, two, and three
Autumn leaves with the winter
Spring is born and wanders free
Gold and silver burnt my autumns
All too soon they'd fade and die
And then there were no others
Milk and honey were their lives

3. _ 3.10 To Yuma
There is a lonely train called the 3.10 to yuma
And it's the only train left for me to ride on
I'll catch that lonely train called the 3.10 to yuma
I'll get my ticket now for my last time
They say the life of man is made up of four seasons
And springtime finds him young and planting his grain
And then the summer comes bringing warm rains of reason
And time to reap his crop of heartache and pain
The winter comes, finds him snow-cropped and laden
He has been humbled now, walking into the rain
But the rains of death never fall from the cloudless skies of yuma
Time stand still for those on that 3.10 train
There is a lonely train called the 3.10 to yuma
And it's the only train left for me to ride on
I'll catch that lonely train called the 3.10 to yuma
I'll get my ticket now for my last time

4. _ This Train
This train don't carry no gamblers, this train,
This train don't carry no gamblers, this train,
This train don't carry no gamblers
No crap shooters, no midnight ramblers,
This train don't carry no gamblers, this train.
Chorus:
This train is bound for glory, this train,
This train is bound for glory, this train,
This train is bound for glory,
Don't carry nothin' but the righteous an' the holy
This train is bound for glory, this train.
This train goes down the track, this train,
This train goes down the track, this train,
This train goes down the track,
And once you're on board you don't come back
This train goes down the track, this train
(chorus)
This train don't pay no transportation, this train,
This train don't pay no transportation, this train,
This train don't pay no transportation
No jim crow and no discrimination,
This train don't pay no transportation, this train.
(chorus)

5. _ The False Bride
I once loved a lass and i loved her so well
And i hated all others who spoke of her ill.
And now she's rewarded me well for my love,
For she's gone and she's wed another.
And i saw my love up to the church go
With bridesmen and bridesmaidens she made a fine show.
And i followed on with my heart full of woe
For she's gone and she's wed another.
I saw my love as she sat down to dine.
I sat down beside her and poured the wine.
And i thought of the lassie that should have been mine,
I thought her sweet company better than meat
Now she's gone and she's wed another.
All the men in yon forest they asked of me,
How many strawberries grow in a salt sea?
And i answer them with a tear in my e'e,
How many ships sail in the forest?
Oh dig me a grave and dig it sae deep,
And cover it over with wee flowers sae sweet.
And i lay me down for to take a long sleep
And maybe in time i'll forget her.
So they dug him a grave and they dug it sae deep
And they covered it over with wee flowers sae sweet
And he lay him down for to take a long sleep
And maybe in time he'll forget her.

6. _ Been On The Road So Long
I've been on the road, so long
Been tired and broke, so long
I've been to the south where the winds they were warm
Travelling the road of no return, so long
I've seen what was war, so long
The ruins and the scars, so long
The mansions of mud, the wounds and the blood
Seen the dying of all that was good, so long.
Seen the world in the shadow, so long
Is its mushrooming cloud, so long
And the lies and the greed of the leaders of men
Those cheats who would take us to war again, so long.
Yet hope is in me, so long
For it's love that i see, so long
The courage and strenght of the young men's smile
The faith that's in a little child, so long
I've travelled this road, so long
Have been tired and broke, so long
I've been to the south where the winds they were warm
Travelling the road of no return, so long

7. _ You Never Wanted Me
Wondering and waiting, my back agaist the wall
Not a word that passed between us comes to recall
Just you shadow at the window as you pass on down the hall
You never wanted me and never knew me at all
I haven't any picture to set before my eyes
Nothing i can blame when the blues start to rise
Just the memory of laughter and a living out of lies
But if i could change my ways we would never have said goodbye
If you ever get the time, please think of me
It's a lock that can't be broken and there isn't any key
I'm only in your mind, only you can set me free
You can't hurt me anymore and it isn't hard to see
Someday, someone will leave you and i know you'll feel the same
But you'll mark it down to memory and a dream that never came
But they are no answers given when love is just a game
And you never wanted me and now i feel the same

8. _ The Last Thing On My Mind
It's a lesson too late for the learning
Made of sand, made of sand
In the winking of an eye my soul is turning
In your hand, in your hand.
Chorus:
Are you going away with no word of farewell?
Will there be not a trace left behind?
I could have loved you better
Didn't mean to be unkind
But you know that was the last thing on my mind.
You had reasons plenty for going
This i know, this i know.
For the weeds have been steadily growing
Please don't go, please don't go.
(chorus)
As we walk, my thoughts are a-tumbling
Round and round, round and round
And the subway beneath my feet is a-rumbling
Underground, underground
(chorus)
As i lie in my bed in the morning
Without you, without you.
Every song in my breast dies a-borning
Without you, without you.
(chorus)

9. _ Make Me A Pallet On Your Floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make it soft, make it low, so your woman don't know
Make me a pallet on your floor.
Come all you good time friends of mine,
Come all you good time friends of mine.
When i had ten dollars, you treated me so fine
Where were you when i only had a dime.
Come on and make me a pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make it soft, make it low, so your woman don't know
Make me a pallet on your floor.
I'll be more than satisfied,
If i could catch one train to ride
But if i reach atlanta with no place to go,
Please make me a pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make it soft, make it low, so your woman don't know
Make me a pallet on your floor.
I'm gonna make you a red-hot meal
Gonna make you a red-hot meal
To show you i appreciate all that you have done
When you make me a pallet on your floor.
Come on and make me a pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make it soft, make it low, so your woman don't know
Make me a pallet on your floor.
