500 Miles

If you missed the train I'm on


You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two


Lord, I'm three, Lord, I'm four
Lord, I'm five hundred miles from my home
Five hundred miles five hundred miles,
Five hundred miles five hundred miles
Lord, I'm five hundred miles from my home

Not a shirt on my back


Not a penny to my name
Lord, I can't go back home this ole way
This ole way, this ole way
This ole way, this ole way
Lord, I can't go back home this this ole way I

f you missed the train I'm on


You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

Island in the Sun

1
This is my island in the sun
Where my people have toiled since time begun
I may sail on many a sea
Her shores will always be home to me

Oh, island in the sun


Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days I will sing in praise
Of your forest, waters
Your shining sand

As morning breaks
The heaven on high
I lift my heavy load to the sky
Sun comes down with a burning glow
Mingles my sweat with the earth below

I see woman on bended knee


Cutting cane for her family
I see man at the waterside
Casting nets at the surging tide

I hope the day will never come


That I can't awake to the sound of drum
Never let me miss carnival
With calypso songs philosophical

Oh, island in the sun


Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days I will sing in praise
Of your forest, waters
Your shining sand

My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean

My Bonnie lies over the ocean,


my Bonnie lies over the sea,
My Bonnie lies over the ocean,
O bring back my Bonnie to me.

Chorus:
Bring back, bring back, O bring back my Bonnie to me, to me:
Bring back, bring back, O bring back my Bonnie to me.

Repeat chorus

Last night as I lay on my pillow,


Last night as I lay on my bed,
Last night as I lay on my pillow,
I dreamed that my Bonnie was dead.

Repeat chorus

Oh blow ye winds over the ocean,


And blow ye winds over the sea.
Oh blow ye winds over the ocean,
And bring back my Bonnie to me.

Repeat chorus

On the Street Where You Live


3
I have often walked
Down the street before,
But the pavement always stayed
Beneath my feet before
All at once am I
Several stories high,
Knowing I'm on the street where you live

Are there lilac trees


In the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour
Out of every door?
No, it's just on the street where you live

And oh, the towering feeling


Just to know somehow you are near
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear

People stop and stare


They don't bother me,
For there's no where else on earth
That I would rather be

Let the time go by,


I won't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live
4
People stop and stare

Can be here on the street where you live,
Can be here on the street where you live,
Let be here on the street where you live

My Heart’s in the Highlands

My heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here,

5
My heart's in the Highlands, a-chasing the deer;

Chasing the wild-deer, and following the roe,

My heart's in the Highlands, wherever I go.

Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North,

The birth-place of Valour, the country of Worth ;

Wherever I wander, wherever I rove,

The hills of the Highlands for ever I love.

Farewell to the mountains, high-cover'd with snow,

Farewell to the straths and green vallies below;

Farewell to the forests and wild-hanging woods,

Farewell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods.

My heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here,

My heart's in the Highlands, a-chasing the deer;

Chasing the wild-deer, and following the roe,

My heart's in the Highlands, wherever I go.


Inima mea este în Highlands

Inima mea este în Highlands, inima mea nu este aici,


Inima mea este în Highlands, urmărind căprioarele;

6
Urmărind căprioarele sălbatice și urmărind icre,
Inima mea este în Highlands, oriunde mă duc.

La revedere de la Highlands, la revedere de la nord,


Locul de naștere al Valourului, țara Worth-ului;
Oriunde aș rătăci, oriunde aș călători,
Dealurile din Highlands pe care le iubesc pentru totdeauna.

Adio munților, acoperiți de zăpadă,


La revedere strathurilor și văilor verzi de dedesubt;
Adio pădurilor și pădurilor sălbatice,
Adio torenților și inundațiilor zgomotoase.

Inima mea este în Highlands, inima mea nu este aici,


Inima mea este în Highlands, urmărind căprioarele;
Urmărind căprioarele sălbatice și urmărind icre,
Inima mea este în Highlands, oriunde mă duc.

Pe strada unde locuiești

Am mers des

7
Pe stradă înainte,
Dar trotuarul a rămas mereu
Sub picioarele mele înainte
Sunt deodată
Câteva povești înalte,
Știind că sunt pe strada unde locuiești

Există copaci de liliac?


În inima orașului?
Poți auzi o ciocârlă în orice altă parte a orașului?
Se revarsă descântecul
Din fiecare uşă?
Nu, este doar pe strada unde locuiești

Și oh, sentimentul falnic


Doar ca să știi cumva că ești aproape
Sentimentul copleșitor
Că în orice secundă poți apărea brusc

Oamenii se opresc și se uită


Nu mă deranjează,
Căci nu există altundeva pe pământ
Așa aș fi mai degrabă

Lasă timpul să treacă,

8
Nu o să-mi pasă dacă eu
Poate fi aici, pe strada unde locuiești

Oamenii se opresc și se uită


Nu mă deranjează,
Căci nu există altundeva pe pământ
Așa aș fi mai degrabă

Lasă timpul să treacă


Nu o să-mi pasă dacă eu
Poți fi aici, pe strada în care locuiești,
Poți fi aici, pe strada în care locuiești,
Să fii aici, pe strada unde locuiești

Bonnie a mea zace peste ocean

Bonnie a mea stă deasupra oceanului,


9
Bonnie a mea stă deasupra mării,
Bonnie a mea stă deasupra oceanului,
O, aduce-mi pe Bonnie înapoi la mine.
Cor:
Adu înapoi, adu înapoi, adu-mi pe Bonnie înapoi la mine, la mine:
Adu înapoi, adu înapoi, adu-mi pe Bonnie înapoi la mine.

Aseară, în timp ce stăteam întins pe pernă,


Aseară, în timp ce stăteam întins pe patul meu,
Aseară, în timp ce stăteam întins pe pernă,
Am visat că Bonnie a mea a murit.

O, suflați vânturile peste ocean,


Și suflați vânturile peste mare.
O, suflați vânturile peste ocean,
Și aduce-mi pe Bonnie înapoi la mine.

Insulă în soare

Aceasta este insula mea în soare


Unde oamenii mei s-au chinuit de la începutul timpului
Pot naviga pe multe mări

10
Țărmurile ei vor fi mereu acasă pentru mine

Oh, insulă în soare


Vreau-mi de mâna tatălui meu
Toate zilele mele voi cânta laude
Din pădurea voastră, ape
Nisipul tău strălucitor

Pe măsură ce se face dimineața


Raiul de sus
Îmi ridic sarcina grea spre cer
Soarele coboară cu o strălucire arzătoare
Îmi amestecă sudoarea cu pământul de dedesubt

Văd o femeie în genunchi


Tăie trestie pentru familia ei
Văd un bărbat pe malul apei
Aruncarea plaselor la valul în creștere

Sper că ziua nu va veni niciodată


Că nu mă pot trezi la sunetul tobei

11
Nu mă lăsa niciodată să ratez carnaval
Cu cântece calypso filozofice

Oh, insulă în soare


Vreau-mi de mâna tatălui meu
Toate zilele mele voi cânta laude
Din pădurea voastră, ape
Nisipul tău strălucitor

Versuri

In Dublin's fair city


Where the girls are so pretty
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her wheelbarrow
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
She was a fishmonger
And sure 'twas no wonder
For so were her father and mother before
And they both wheeled their barrows
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh

13
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh
She died of a fever
And no one could save her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
But her ghost wheels her barrow
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Alive, alive, oh
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh

My friend the wind will come from the hills
When dawn will rise, he'll wake me again
My friend the wind will tell me a secret
He shares with me, he shares with me

My friend the wind will come from the north


With words of love, she whispered for me
My friend the wind will say she loves me
And me alone, and me alone

rf
I'll hear her voice and the words
That he brings from Helenimou
Sweet as a kiss are the songs of Aghapimou
Soft as the dew is the touch of Manoulamou
Oh oh oh

15
We'll share a dream where I'm never away
from Helenimou
Blue are the days like the eyes of Aghapimou
Far from the world will I live with
Manoulamou
Oh oh oh

My friend the wind go back to the hills


And tell my love a day will soon come
Oh friendly wind you tell a secret
You know so well, oh you know so well

My friend the wind will come from the north


With words of love, she whispered for me
My friend the wind will say she loves me
And me alone, and me alone

Do-Re-Mi
Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read, you begin with A-B-C
When you sing, you begin with Do-Re-Mi

21
Do-Re-Mi
Do-Re-Mi
The first three notes just happen to be
Do-Re-Mi
Do-Re-Mi
Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti
Oh, let's see if I can make it easy
Do, a deer, a female deer
Re, a drop of golden sun
Mi, a name, I call myself
Fa, a long, long way to run
So, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow So
Ti, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do, oh, oh, oh
Do, a deer, a female deer
Re, a drop of golden sun
Mi, a name, I call myself
Fa, a long, long way to run
So, a needle pulling thread

That will bring us back to Do
Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti-Do, So-Do
Now, children, Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So and so on
Are only the tools we use to build a song
Once you have these notes in your heads
You can sing a million different tunes by mixing them up
Like this
So, Do, La, Fa, Mi, Do, Re
Can you do that?
So, Do, La, Fa, Mi, Do, Re
So, Do, La, Ti, Do, Re, Do
So, Do, La, Ti, Do, Re, Do
Now put it all together
So, Do, La, Fa, Mi, Do, Re
So, Do, La, Ti, Do, Re, Do
Good
But it doesn't mean anything
So we put in words
One word for every note
Like this

23
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
Together
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
Do, a deer, a female deer
Re, a drop of golden sun
Mi, a name, I call myself
Fa, a long, long way to run
So, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow So

Joe Hill - Jooan Baez

I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night,


alive as you and me.
Says I "But Joe, you're ten years dead"
"I never died" said he,
"I never died" said he.
"The Copper Bosses killed you Joe,
they shot you Joe" says I.
"Takes more than guns to kill a man"

25
Says Joe "I didn't die"
Says Joe "I didn't die"
"In Salt Lake City, Joe," says I,
Him standing by my bed,
"They framed you on a murder charge,"
Says Joe, "But I ain't dead,"
Says Joe, "But I ain't dead."
And standing there as big as life
and smiling with his eyes.
Says Joe "What they can never kill
went on to organize,
went on to organize"
From San Diego up to Maine,
in every mine and mill,
Where working men defend their rights,
it's there you'll find Joe Hill,
it's there you'll find Joe Hill!
I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night,
alive as you and me.
Says I "But Joe, you're ten years dead"
"I never died" said he,
"I never died" said he.
