Track #1 Bluebird Tattoo
Well it’s a Saturday night and there’s nothing to do
I’m gonna get myself a new tattoo
Ain’t no rose is gonna do
I’m gonna get myself a blue bird to remind me of you
He ain’t gonna go on my arm or my back
No this bird don’t fly with the rest of the pack
He’ll be no drinking Joe or Jack
And he won’t fly away and forget to come back
No he won’t fly away and leave his home
No he won’t fly away and leave his home
He’ll stay by my side
Blue blue bird fly
Well a weeks gone by and I’m feeling fine
Yeah the sun came out and started to shine
I’m glad you’re gone, I don’t think I mind
Because my little blue birds got ‘em waitin’ in line
Now my dance card’s full since you went away
And this here bird just found out how to play
No he’s no drag he don’t bring me down
And so I shake my blue bird every night on the town
No he won’t fly away and leave his home
No he won’t fly away and leave his home
He’ll stay by my side
Blue blue bird fly

Track #2 Call Him a Thief
Call him a thief, that man with my heart
Nothing but grief right from the start
Call him a liar, call him untrue
Call him a man, whose love is so cruel
I once knew right from wrong and life was so good
He led me far from home, I knew that he would
Laughing and loving and lying along the way
Longing and losing and leaving just why I can’t say
Call him a thief , that man with my heart
Nothing but grief right from the start
Look there he goes, he’s after hers too
Everyone knows what he’s gonna do
My arms were so wide my heart without tears
With nothing to hide not even my fears
Drifting and dreaming and dying
Each night and each day
Doubting deceiving and dealing the devil his pay
Call him a thief, call him a liar
Call him my man, my one desire
Call him a liar, it’s only true
Please understand, there goes that man
Whose love is so cruel

Track #3 I Like Knowing You Miss Me
I found out you’ve been bad
I left town, now you’re sad
I like knowing you miss me
I like knowing your blue
I like knowing you miss me
‘Cause I don’t miss you
With her name on your tongue
I got out, it’s been fun
I like knowing you miss me
I like knowing your blue
I like knowing you miss me
‘Cause I don’t miss you
So hang on slim, I’m going to pass you by
‘Cause you’re not worth those tears you made me cry
Don’t say that I hurt you when I say were though
Don’t say that you love me
‘Cause I don’t love you
Now your bed is cold
You can’t say, you weren’t warned
I like knowing you miss me
I like knowing your blue
I like knowing you miss me
Cause I don’t miss you
I’ve packed my bags they’ll no one last try
‘Cause now I know that you’re the cheatin’ kind
Don’t say that I hurt you when I say were though
Don’t say that you love me
‘Cause I don’t love you

Track #4 Like This
Place your hand, right here
Then come close, my dear
Stay with me tonight, under the moon
Take your hand, like this
Give me just one kiss
And you’ll see, that I’m
In love with you
My darling, I’m true
I’d like to try with you what lovers do
So slowly, so new, tenderly in your arms
Right here, right now with you
Like this, like a rose in the dew
Like this, like a meadow in June
Like this, like the stars in the sky
Like this , all alone you and I
Like this , like a hand in a glove
Like this, like the heaven above
Like this, like the skin to a bone
Like this, I will show you I’m the one
Place your lips, to mine
Take a chance, this time
Make me yours, or I’ll be sad and blue
Down with me, my sweet
Softly hear me speak
Little words, that are only for you
Like this, like a rose in the dew
Like this, like a meadow in June
Like this, like the stars in the sky
Like this , all alone you and I
Like this , like a hand in a glove
Like this, like the heaven above
Like this, like the skin to a bone
Like this, I will show you I’m the one

Track #5 Mexicali Rose
There is a Mexicali Rose out west
She is the kind of girl who cannot rest
Her heart goes traveling and she must go
When she will come again nobody knows
In the desert she is wandering
Through the sparkling night
Through the yellow sand Mojave
Guided by the moonlight
Mexicali Rose Mexicali Rose
Drifting on you might here her cry
For the desert that she loves
As seasons go on with changing time
You might just see her as she passes by
Listen hear her play her sad guitar
Singing her songs around a distant fire
Pass the canyons up onto the butte
Out into the great wild
Up upon the red rock reaching high
In the summer so mild
Mexicali Rose Mexicali Rose
Drifting on you might here her cry
For the desert that she loves
This song is true in case you don’t believe
She once passed through here though we didn’t meet
They say she wears a face of sunset skies
Never a bitter word just laughs and smiles
In the desert she is wandering
Through the sparkling night
Through the yellow sand Mojave
Guided by the moonlight
Mexicali Rose Mexicali Rose
Drifting on you might here her cry
For the desert that she loves

Track #6 Wisteria
As the moon was arising up over the hill
Night was approaching so dark and so still
I heard her crying out there in the woods
As she sat alone
Wisteria Wisteria
Why do you hang your head?
Wisteria Wisteria
Why do you hang your head?
From a distance the music could faintly be heard
She was there silent not saying a word
Off to the party every one goes, but no one comes for her
WisteriaWisteria
Sings a crying song
Wisteria Wisteria
She won’t be sad for long
She dreamt up a man and danced in his arms
Right there in the grove beneath the stars
As the party had ended and people went home
Out from the forest a strange light glowed
In the small clearing where once she had been
Two lovers danced in the night
Wisteria Wisteria
Once a lonely heart
Wisteria Wisteria
Still dances there in the dark

Track #7 Oh Lady!
Oh lady now, oh lady now
Oh lady now he sang beneath my night window
Oh lady now, oh lady now he sang in the bright moonlight
Please lady let me see
Come on down and sit on my knee
I wanna love you all night long
Until the early light of dawn
Oh lady now, oh lady now
Oh lady now he sang beneath my night window
Oh lady now, oh lady now he sang in the bright moonlight
The way she combs her hair
The way she glides the stairs
The way she says to me, “Mr. No!
Leave my door or I will go
Down to precinct fifty five and call the law on you!”
Oh lady now, oh lady now
Oh lady now he sang beneath my night window
Oh lady now, oh lady now he sang in the bright moonlight
Hey lady I love you
I like you in your slip of light blue
I wanna to come up and hold you hand
And be your only lover man
Oh lady now, oh lady now
Oh lady now he sang beneath my night window
Oh lady now, oh lady now he sang in the bright moonlight

Track #8 Just One More Time
Once I had a sweet heart who was my only flame
Once I had a lover who played me like a game
Once I thought I knew love
But now I see the signs
Once I was so foolish
Believing all the lies
And our kisses warm
Under the gentle night
And although I’m scorned
I’d like just one more time
Just one more time in your arms
Just one more time against your skin
Just one more time, do your harm
I’d like just one more time
Now I sit here lonely
My tears into the wind
Dreaming of a warm night when we might touch again
Out into the evening I might walk alone
Burning for that rambler who stole my heart of gold
And our kisses warm
Under the gentle night
And although I’m scorned
I’d like just one more time
Just one more time in your arms
Just one more time against your skin
Just one more time, do your harm
I’d like just one more time
If you see my sweet heart please send him back again
Even for just one time and then we’ll let it end
After that he’ll move on just like he did before
Leaving me to wait here and want him all the more
And our kisses warm
Under the gentle night
And although I’m scorned
I’d like just one more time

Track #9 Three Bells
I know a guy with three bells on a string
Dragging behind him these bells they do ring
Sweet is their sound but sad are the words to this song
Three bells on a string
Three hearts on the wing
Three blues of a kind
And this one is mine
Three bells on a string
Three hearts on the wing
Three blues of a kind
And this one is mine
I know a guy with three girls on a string
One of them sweet and one of them mean
One of them secret whose song I will sing
Because she was me
Three bells on a string
Three hearts on the wing
Three blues of a kind
And this one is mine
Three bells on a string
Three hearts on the wing
Three blues of a kind
And this one is mine
My story ends it’s a rather old tale
About a love that’s destined to fail
Try as I might I think you might guess how it ends
Three bells on a string
Three hearts on the wing
Three blues of a kind
And this one is mine
Three bells on a string
Three hearts on the wing
Three blues of a kind
And this one is mine

Track #10 Travelin’ Daddy
I fill my gin glass, I throw my head back
I wash down these travelin’ blues
I lost my good man down in the Bad Lands
I wanna bring him back home to me
Travelin’ daddy your evil ways
Got me swimming in a haze
Travelin’ daddy I’ll make you stay and you won’t go travelin’ no more
I sing a sad song because my man’s gone
He skipped town with the brown bottle flu
A boxcar mister, a crazy drifter, a carpet bagger with a hole in his shoe
Travelin’ daddy your coal dark eyes
Got me believin’ all your lies
If your wantin’ to leave me then all I can say
Travelin’ daddy you’ll be back on day
I smell the night air, I comb my long hair
I break bones like a Southern hoodoo
I burn your picture, I call for twisters
I hold to tight my lover’s juju
Travelin’ daddy your long dark hair
I see your face everywhere
But while your are running you’ll soon understand
Travelin’ daddy your days are few
Cause this woman’s gonna get you
Travelin Daddy, travelin Man…..

Track #11 Every Blessing is a Curse in Disguise
I woke up this morning and pulled back my blinds
The sun it was shinning too big and too bright
I wish it was raining because on this day
I’m putting my baby into his grave
I sit on a high hill under a big sky
With people gathered who bid their good-byes
Upon the soft ground our chairs they do sit
So nice for the shoveler who digs his pit
Every blessing’s a curse in disguise
‘Cause god and the devil conspire
You’ll listen and learn if you’re wise
Every blessing’s a curse in disguise
Oh sad sad life, oh sad sad life
Where even your sorrow wears smiles
Yeah, sad sad life
Well I am alone now with nothing in view
I have only one wish to die in my youth
For I know I’ll live long, it’s our family way
And I’ll be alone ‘till judgment day
Every blessing’s a curse in disguise
‘Cause god and the devil conspire
You’ll listen and learn if you’re wise
Every blessing’s a curse in disguise
