1. _ Loving Hannah
I went to church on sunday
My love, she passed me by
I knew her mind was changing
By the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye
I knew her mind was changing
By the roving of her eye
My love's fair and proper
Her waist is neat and small
She is quite good-looking
And that' s the best of all
And that' s the best of all
And that' s the best of all
And she is quite good-looking
And that' s the best of all
Oh, hannah, loving hannah
Come give to me your hand
You said that if you're married
That i will be the one
That i will be the one
That i will be the one
You said that if you're married
That i will be the one
I will go down by the river
When everyone's asleep
I'll think of loving hannah
And then sit down and grieve
And then sit down and grieve
And then sit down and grieve
I'll think of loving hannah
And then sit down and grieve
I went to church on sunday
My love she passed me by
I knew her mind was changing
By the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye
I knew her mind was changing
By the roving of her eye

3. _ Rose Of Allendale
The moon was bright, the night was clear
No breeze came over the sea
When mary left her highland home
And wandered forth with me
The flowers be-decked the mountainside
And fragrance filled the vale
But by far the sweetest flower there
Was the rose of allendale
Oh the rose of allendale
Sweet rose of allendale
By far the sweetest flower there
Was the rose of allendale
Where e'er i wandered east or west
Though fate began to lour
A solace still was she to me
In sorrow's lonely hour
When tempests lashed our lonely barque
And rent her quivering sail
One maiden's form withstood the storm
'twas the rose of allendale
Oh sweet rose of allendale
Sweet rose of allendale
One maiden's form withstood the storm
'twas the rose of allendale
And when my fever'd lips were parched
On afric's burning sands
She whispered hopes of happiness
And tales of distant lands
My life has been a wilderness
Unblessed by fortune's wheel
Had fate not linked my love to hers
The rose of allendale
Oh sweet rose of allendale
Sweet rose of allendale
Had fate not linked my love to hers
The rose of allendale

5. _ Crusader
There's a wilderness
It's a no man's land
Between alice springs and the ocean
Seventeen hundred miles of burning sand
And a silken thread keeps a hold on you
When the emptieness like a potion tends to fray your reason strand by strand
And there's no more need for the mask your wear
When the last goodbyes have been said
So kiss the cheeks of you dearest friends
And turn to the desert ahead
Now you're on your own like a sailing ship
You're the captain, crew and sailors
Turn around and this is what you see
Chorus
This me facing me all alone
'cause i choose to be with the wind and the sun on me only me
Now you dream so much about being lost
Your ghost by a coolebah sleeping
Haunts you and whispers in your ear
Give up give up this lonely road
No one knows the promise you're keeping
You can't touch the emptiness out here
But the grace that mends this broken wing
The blue sky to regain
Will lift those feet and raise those eyes
To face the desert again
As the dawn reveals the journey's end
In truth it's only beginning
And it's as big as your eyes wish to see
Chorus

7. _ Lovin You
I have been wond'ring
What i'm gonna do
While you are sleeping
Am i sleeping too
Well i'm just sittin' here lovin' you
Close my eyes and lovin' you
Oh i'm just sittin' back
Sittin' here lovin' you
If you've been wond'rin
Just what i would do
If i weren't sleeping
Had i not found you
Well i'd be outside finding you
I'd be walkin' down avenue finding you
Oh i'm just sittin' here lovin' you
Oh the reason that you never see me runnin' round
Fingers on my forehead couldn't calm me down
And i can't even get me up and on my feet
I have to take care of some bus'ness on the street
Oh i have been walkin' all my streets alone
I'd keep on walkin' to keep from goin' home
I couldn't quite barely conceive of you
Now i can't conceive of ever leavin' you
Oh i'm just stittin' back
Sittin' here lovin' you
Oh i'm just sittin' here lovin' you
Oh i'm just sittin' back
Sittin' here lovin' you

8. _ Anachie Gordon
Harking is bonnie
And there lives my love
My heart lies on him
And will not remove
It will not remove
Oh for all that i have done
Oh i never will forget my love anachie
For anachie gordon
He's bonnie and he's rough
He'd entice any woman that ever he saw
He'd entice any woman and so he has done me
Oh i never will forget my love anachie
Down came her father and he's standing by the door
Saying jeannie you're trying the tricks of a whore
You care nothing for a man who cares so very much for thee
You must marry lord sulton and leave anachie
For anachie gorden, he's barely but a man
Although he may be pretty but where are his lands?
Oh the sulton's lands are broad and his towers they run high
You must marry lord sulton and leave anachie
With anachie gordon i'd beg for my bread
And before i'll marry sulton it's gold to my head
With gold to my head and gowns fringed to the knee
And i'll die if i don't get me love anachie
And you that are my parents to church you may me bring
But unto lord sulton i'll never bear a song
To a son or a daughter, i'll never bow my knee
And i'll die if i don't get me love anachie
Jeannie was married and from church she was brought home
And when she and her maidens so merry should have been
When she and her maidens so merry should have been
She went into her chambers she cried all alone
Come to bed now jeannie me honey and my sweet
For to style you my mistress it would be so sweet
Be it mistress or jeannie it's all the same to me
But in your bed lord sulton i never will lie
And down came her father and he's spoken with reknown
Saying you that are her maidens go loosen off her gowns
But she fell down to the floor so close down by his knee
Saying father look i'm dying for me love anachie
The day that jeannie married was the day that jeannie died
And the day that yound anachie came home on the tide
And down came her maidens all wringing of their hands
Saying oh it's been so long you've spent so long on the sands
Oh so long on the sands, so long on the flood
They have married your jeannie and now she lies dead
You that are her maidens go take me by the hand
And take me to the chamber that me love she lies in
And he's kissed her cold lips till his heart has turned to stone
And he's died in the chamber that his love she lies in
