(Neil Worboys)
I been workin’ all day, had no food by all means
Goin’ into town have me some rice n beans
Yes Baby, had no food by all means
And I’m goin’ into town, have me some rice n beans.
I got a bucket full of water, a bottle full of gin
Goin’ into town gonna have me my fun
Yes Baby, gonna have me my fun
Cos’ I’m goin’ into town, when the day is done.
Gotta ass-pocket o’ whiskey, and a pistol in my shoe
Goin’ to the Juke gonna dance to them blues
Yes Baby, gonna dance to them blues
Cos I’m goin’ into town, with a pistol in my shoe.
Gonna dress up real sharp, and have me a ball
Don’t look at me sideways you’re likely to fall
Yes Baby, gonna have me a ball
But don’t look at me sideways, you’re likely to fall.

Sitting in a Train
(Neil Worboys)
Sitting in a train going up the line
Sitting in a train rattling down the track
Yes I’m sitting in a train going up the line
Shaken from head to toe.
Woke up this morning didn’t know what to do
Yes I woke up this morning, didn’t know what to think
I woke up this morning and I look out upon the world
Dark clouds up against the sky.
Hard luck and trouble in my life
Yes hard luck and trouble in my life
They say ‘Nothin’ to it, just get through it’
Been a poor boy all my life.
I had a little drink ‘bout an hour ago
Yes I had a little drink a little while ago
I had a little drink, just a little drink
Might have another by and by.
Hard luck and trouble in my life
Yes hard luck and trouble in my life
They say ‘Nothin’ to it, just get through it’
Been a poor boy all my life.
Think I’m gonna lay down and get some sleep
Think I’m gonna lay down and get some sleep
Yes I think I’m gonna lay down, get some sleep
Don’t know what else I can do.

Did You Ever Cry
(Carol Bean)
Did you ever cry when you’re far from home?
Did you ever miss a lover when you’re all alone?
Now you know why a freight train moans
Freight train moans, freight train moans
Now you know why a freight train moans.
Did you ever choose just a little too late?
Did you ever lose ‘cause you hesitate?
Ain’t it hard when you haul dead weight?
Haul dead weight, haul dead weight
Buddy ain’t it hard when you haul dead weight.
Did you ever come to the end of the line?
Did you ever miss what you left behind?
Did you drink enough highway wine?
Highway wine, Highway wine
Yeah, you drank enough highway wine.
Did you ever cry when you’re far from home?
Did you ever miss a lover when you’re all a-lone?
Now you know why a freight train moans
Freight train moans, freight train moans
Now u know why a freight train moans
Now u know why a freight train moans
Now u know why a freight train moans
Now u know why a freight train moans.

Won’t Be Long
(Neil Worboys)
It’s been a while comin’ but it won’t be long
Won’t be long, won’t be long
Been a while comin’ but it won’t be long
Won’t be long this time.
I’ve been down and out but I’m comin’ through
Comin’ through, comin’ through
Been down and out but I’m comin’ through
To the other side.
Yes I’m gonna make it, feel it comin’ on
Yes I’m gonna make it nothin’ gonna stop me now
Nothin’ gonna stop me now.
I was sad and angry but I changed my ways
Changed my ways, changed my ways
I was sad and angry but I changed my ways
Now I’m keepin’ on the sunny side.
People get together gonna make a change
Make a change, make a change
People get together gonna make a change
For the good of everyone.
Yes I’m gonna make it, feel it comin’ on
Yes I’m gonna make it nothin’ gonna stop me now
Nothin’ gonna stop me now.

Mount Misery
(Carol Bean)
Well I live up in the misty hills
In a place called Mt Misery
Where long ago soldiers made a stand
To guard the town built by the sea.
One cold winter’s morning the fog rolled in
The soldier boys they put rum in their tea
They got drunk on sorrow dreaming of home
And they cried for a girl just like me.
Why, why, why can’t we
Go down to the town where the girls are so sweet
Why, why, oh why do we have to
Stay up here on Mount Misery.
The fog covered the town it rose up thru the hills
It was cold and silent and still as a grave
The soldier boys they lay down in their beds
They were wishing the time away.
The history books say the town was destroyed
Of the soldier boys nothing was heard
Not one soul was saved not one voice was left
To sing on Mount Misery.
Why, why, why can’t we
Go down to the town where the girls are so sweet
Why, why, oh why do we have to
Stay up here on Mount Misery.

Round Your Door
(Bill Wood)
Now I ain’t gonna worry
And I ain’t gonna set a score
And I’m never gonna see you again
No I ain’t coming round your door.
Well we used to run all over
Sometimes there was quite a war
Yeah we really tore up the old neighbourhood
But I’m not doing that no more.
Now I ain’t coming round your I door
You can’t make me like you did before
I’m walking away, just watch me go
And I ain’t coming round your door.
Well you brought me such times of worrying
You brought me such times of woe
Now I never will see such times again
Cos I ain’t coming round your door.
Now I ain’t coming round your I door
You can’t make me like you did before
I’m walking away, just watch me go
And I ain’t coming round your door.
Where I’m going you can’t follow
I’ve never been this way before
There’s only one thing that I’m so sure of
Is I’m not coming round your door.
Now I ain’t coming round your I door
You can’t make me like you did before
I’m walking away, just watch me go
And I ain’t coming round your door.
