Pack up all my care and woe Show me the way to go home Here I go singing low I'm tired and I want to go to bed Bye bye blackbird For I had a little drink about an hour ago For me, sugar's sweet so is she And it went right to my head Bye bye blackbird Now wherever I may roam No one here can love or understand me On land or sea of foam Oh! What hard luck stories they all hand me You can always hear me singing the song Make my bed and light the light Show me the way to go home I'll arrive late tonight Blackbird, bye bye SHINE ON HARVEST MOON

CALIFORNIA Shine on, shine on harvest moon up in the sky I ain't had no loving since California, here I come January, February, June or July Right back where I started from Snowtime ain't no time Where bowers of flowers bloom in the spring To stay outdoors and spoon Each morning at dawning birdies sing and So, shine on, shine on harvest moon everything a Sunkist miss said don't be late For me and my gal That's why I can hardly wait Open up that golden gate HOME ON THE RANGE California, here I come O give me a home where the buffalo roam PUT YOUR ARMS AROUND ME, HONEY Where the deer and the antelope play Where seldom I heard a discouraging word Put your arms around me, honey Hold me tight And the skies are not cloudy all day Huddle up and cuddle up with all your might Home, home on the range Oh, babe, won't you roll dem eyes Where the deer and the antelope play Eyes that I just idolize Where seldom is heard a discouraging word When they look at me my heart begins to float And the skies are not cloudy all day Then it starts a rockin'like a motor boat Where the air is so pure and the zephyrs so free Oh, oh I never knew any girl like you And the breezes so balmy and light That I would not exchange My home on the range OVER THE RAINBOW For all the cities so bright

Someuvhere/ over the rainbow/ way up high SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY There's a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby Gonna take a sentimental journey Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue Gonna set my heart at ease And the dreams that you dare to dream Gonna make a sentimental journey Really do come true To renew old memories Someday I'll wish upon a star Got my bag, got my reservation And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Spent each dime I could afford Where troubles melt like lemon drops Like a child in wild anticipation Away above the chimney tops Long to hear that "All aboard" That's where you'll find me Seven, that's the time we leave, Somewhere/ over the rainbow, bluebirds fly At seven, i'll be waitin' up for Heaven Birds fly, over the rainbow Countin' every mile of railroad track Why then, oh why can't I? That takes me back If happy little bluebirds fly Never thought my heart could be so "yearny" Beyond the rainbow Why did I decide to roam? Why oh why can't I? Gonna take a sentimental journey Sentimental journey home '7 I O SUSANNAH

This land is your land, this land is my land Oh I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee From California to the New York Island and I'm goin'to Lou'sianna From the redwood forest My true love for to see it rained all night the day I To the Gulf Stream waters left the weather it was dry The sun so hot I froze This land was made for you and me to death Susannah don't you cry (chorus) As I was walking, that ribbon of highway O Susannah, O don'you cry for me I saw above me, that endless skyway For I come from Alabama I saw below me, that golden valley With a banjo on my knee This land was made for you and me I had a dream the other night (chorus) When everything was still I've roamed and rambled and followed my I dreamed I saw Susannah footsteps A coming down the hill To the sparkling sand of her diamond deserts A buckwheat cake was in her mouth And all around me, a voice was sounding A tear was in her eye (chorus) Says i "I'm coming from the south Susannah don't you cry" (chorus) DON'T SIT UNDER THE APPLE TREE AMAZING GRACE Don't sit under the apple tree With anyone else but me, anyone else but me Amazing grace! How sweet the sound Anyone else but me no, no/ no That saved a wretch like me Just remember that I've been true I once was lost and now am found To nobody else but you so just be true to me Was blind but now I see Don't go walking down lover's lane Twas grace that taught my heart to fear With anyone else but me, anyone else but me And grace my fears relieved Anyone else but me no/ no/ no How precious did that grace appear Don't start showing off all your charms The hour I first believed In somebody else's arms you must be true to me The Lord has promised good to me I'm so afraid that the plans we made His word my hope secures Underneath those moonlit skies He will my shield and portion be Will fade away and you're bound to stray As long as life endures If the stars get in your eyes Thru many dangers toils and snares So, don't sit under the apple tree I have already come With anyone else but me 'Tis grace that brought me safe thus far You're my L-O-V-E And grace will lead me home
