    Sung and written by James McMurtry

    "Lost in the backyard"

    I said "this is the last time"
    A few times ago
    But once more it's happened
    And that's all in the world I know
    I still hear the echo
    When you hung up the phone
    I feel like I'm lost in the back yard
    Just trying to get home.
    I woke up in a strange world
    I can aptly describe
    It's like the streets of a town where I lived
    When I was too young to drive
    It all looks so Familiar
    But I can't find my way
    I must have got lost in the back yard
    When I went out to play

    Don't open my eyes
    To nothing like truth
    Just leave it all lost in the wind
    Let it hide in the blindness of youth

    The facts of the matter
    Most likely will always remain
    And I guess I'll be lost in the back yard
    Till I get home again

    "Ft. Worth Blues" sung and written by Steve Earle for the late Townes Van Zandt

    In Ft. Worth all the neon's burnin' bright
    Pretty lights red and blue
    But they'd shut down all the honky tonks tonight
    And say a prayer or two
    If they only knew

    You used to say the highway was your home
    But we both know that ain't true
    It's just the only place a man can go
    When he don't know where he's travelin' to

    But Colorado's always clean and healin'
    And Tennessee in Spring is green and cool
    It never really was your kind of town
    But you went around with the Ft. Worth Blues

    Somewhere up beyond the great divide
    Where the sky is wide and the clouds are few
    A man can see his way clear to the light
    Just hold on tight
    That's all you gotta do

    And they say Texas weather's always changin'
    And one thing change'll bring is somethin' new
    And Houston really ain't that bad a town
    So you hang around with the Ft. Worth Blues

    There's a full moon over Galway Bay tonight
    Silver light over green and blue
    And every place I travel through, I find
    Some kinda sign that you've been through

    But Amsterdam was always good for grieving
    And London never fails to leave me blue
    Paris never was my kinda town
    So I walked around with the Ft. Worth Blues

    Great voice :worthy: Great song :worthy:



    "The Times they are a changing" sung by Antje Duvelot written by Bob Dylan

    Come gather 'round people
    Wherever you roam
    And admit that the waters
    Around you have grown
    And accept it that soon
    You'll be drenched to the bone
    If your time to you
    Is worth savin'
    Then you better start swimmin'
    Or you'll sink like a stone
    For the times they are a-changin'.

    Come writers and critics
    Who prophesize with your pen
    And keep your eyes wide
    The chance won't come again
    And don't speak too soon
    For the wheel's still in spin
    And there's no tellin' who
    That it's namin'
    For the loser now
    Will be later to win
    For the times they are a-changin'.

    Come senators, congressmen
    Please heed the call
    Don't stand in the doorway
    Don't block up the hall
    For he that gets hurt
    Will be he who has stalled
    There's a battle outside
    And it is ragin'
    It'll soon shake your windows
    And rattle your walls
    For the times they are a-changin'.

    Come mothers and fathers
    Throughout the land
    And don't criticize
    What you can't understand
    Your sons and your daughters
    Are beyond your command
    Your old road is
    Rapidly agin'
    Please get out of the new one
    If you can't lend your hand
    For the times they are a-changin'.

    The line it is drawn
    The curse it is cast
    The slow one now
    Will later be fast
    As the present now
    Will later be past
    The order is
    Rapidly fadin'
    And the first one now
    Will later be last
    For the times they are a-changin'.

    "Jolene" sung and written by Ray LaMontagne

    Cocaine flame in my bloodstream
    Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
    Bought myself a hard pack of cigarettes in the early morning rain
    Lately my hands they don't feel like mine
    My eyes been stung with dust, I'm blind
    Held you in my arms one time
    Lost you just the same
    Jolene
    I ain't about to go straight
    It's too late
    I found myself face down in the ditch
    Booze on my hair
    Blood on my lips
    A picture of you, holding a picture of me
    in the pocket of my blue jeans
    Still don't know what love means
    Still don't know what love means
    Jolene
    Ah, La, La, La, La, La
    Jolene
    Been so long since I seen your face
    or felt a part of this human race
    I've been living out of this here suitcase for way too long
    A man needs something he can hold onto
    A nine pound hammer or a woman like you
    Either one of them things will do
    Jolene
    I ain't about to go straight
    It's too late
    I found myself face down in the ditch
    Booze in my hair
    Blood on my lips
    A picture of you, holding a picture of me
    In the pocket of my blue jeans
    Still don't know what love means
    Still don't know what love means
    Jolene
    La, La, La, La, La, La, La
    Jolene
    La, La, La, La, La, La, La
    Jolene
