I would try my finger and I would try my hand At any fool game in this man's land But don't you talk about this-a friend of mine I ain't never been let down and you'd be wastin' time I would scratch and steal, I would maim a man I would even run the bounty across the other country So don't you talk about this here friend of mine I gave it all of my money, but it makes me feel fine Yeah, I know you won't give me no peace of mind Try to understand I just wanna feel good all the time Don't you talk about a dear old friend of mine Well, I know that you are sweet and more than double fine Everybody said you oughta marry that rich man down the line But if I had to make a choice I wouldn't change my mind Honey, you just ain't as sweet as my strawberry wine Yeah, You caught me when I's down a-sleepin' in the park Climbin' up the walls and laughin' in the dark But I heard you been talkin' about a dear old friend of mine Never tasted anything as sweet as my strawberry wine

Sleeping 03:17 video
For the life we chose in the evening we rose Just long enough to be lovers again And for nothing more, the world was too sore to live in Sad old ships, a morning eclipse I spent my whole life guessing Then I turned from the sun, and saw everyone searching The hoot owl and his song, will bring you along Where else on earth would you wanna go? We can leave all this hate, before it's too late Why would we wanna come back at all? Cobwebs on my pillow, I'm found in the willow I'd spend my whole life sleeping To be called by noon is to be called too soon today The storm is passed, there is peace at last I'll spend my whole life sleeping Now there's not a sound, no one to be found anywhere The shepherd and his sheep, will wind you to sleep Where else on earth would you wanna go? To a land of wonder, when you go under Why would we want to come back at all?

The many roads I've covered The many trails I've burned But when our paths did cross, love, oooh My whole world made a turn And we've got time to kill What a thrill June and July We've got all our love Buckets of The tears that we cried Now we don't cry no more Gonna bolt the door Don't know what we've got but it feels like a lot We don't need no more When my day's work is done We can take in a jamboree But I just wanna sit down by the fire With my love right here beside me We've got time to kill Catskill Sweet by and by We've got all our love The sky above The twinkle in your eye Now where the wheel might roll Is where my love and I shall go We're gonna plant the seed, there ain't nothing we need We found our own rainbow My love wants to have her fortune read And I know that she's in a hurry If we go along the straight and narrow You don't even have to worry We've got time to kill Standin' still Go on, give it a try We've got all our love Mountains of The trees are so high We don't need no big car Don't eat no caviar When we come to rest we take to the nest You know where we are

To all concerned dead or alive The locomotive will arrive Bringin' souls from all around They'll be bound for higher ground Look out, stranger, it's comin' through With plenty of room for me and you And it's just another whistle stop If you don't quit till we reach the top I'd be much obliged to you Odd man out You know that's the rule You can scream and you can shout But they'll only call you a crazy fool Pay no mind to what they say When they're 'bitter they talk that way I seen a young boy on the run And I seen other children havin' fun A police siren flashing light I wonder who went down tonight People, people, where do you go Before you believe in what you know ? It's just another whistle stop If you don't quit till we reach the top I'd be much obliged to you When the trolley is clean out of reach A certain lesson it will teach To grind your ax until it's dull You've got to get it in your skull Tell the people all across the sea Don't turn your back because it's free It's just another whistle stop If you don't quit till we reach the top I'd, I'd be much obliged to you And it's odd man out You know that's the rule You can scream and you can shout But they'll only call you a crazy fool Pay no mind to what you read There's one way home that's guaranteed

I wanna hear pitter patter Climb up your ladder now It's time for you to dream away For what a big day you've been through You've done all the things that you wanted to do All la glory, I'm second story Feel so tall like a prison wall I'm lookin' for a star bright To shine down your light now And keep the little one safe and warm 'Cause to her it's just a fantasy And to me it's all a mystery All la glory, I'm second story Feel so tall like a prison wall And before the leaves all turn brown Before they fall to the ground You will find the harmony Wait and see Listen to the serenade Little girl, promenade now You've got the sunshine in your hand And maybe come some sweet day You'll walk that Milky Way All la glory, I'm second story Feel so tall like a prison wall That tall

Go out yonder, peace in the valley Come downtown, have to rumble in the alley Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in Has anybody seen my lady This livin' alone would drive me crazy Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in I'm gonna go down by the water But I ain't gonna jump in, no, no I'll just be lookin' for my maker And I hear that that's where she's been? Oh out of nine lives, I spent seven Now how in the world do you get to Heaven Oh you don't know the shape I'm in I've just spent 60 days in the jail house For the crime of having no dough, no no Now here I am back out on the street For the crime of having nowhere to go Save your neck or save your brother Looks like it's one or the other Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in Now two young kids might start a ruckus You know they feel you're tryin' to shuck us Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
7.
When your arms are empty, got nowhere to go Come on out and catch this show There'll be saints and sinners, you'll see losers and winners All kinds of people you might want to know Once you get it, you can't forget it W.S. Walcott Medicine Show You know he always holds it in a tent And if you're looking for the real thing He can show you where it went There's a young faith healer he's a woman stealer He will cure by his command When the music's hot and you might have to stand To hear the Klondike Klu Klux steamboat band Don't you sweat it You can't forget it W.S. Walcott Medicine Show I'd rather die happy than not die at all For a man is a fool who will not heed the call Gonna see *Miss Brer Foxhole with bright diamonds in her teeth She is pure gold down underneath She's a rock and roll singer and a true dead ringer Boy, somethin' like you ain't never seen Once you get it You can't forget it W.S. Walcott Medicine Show

Daniel, Daniel and the sacred harp Dancing through the clover Daniel, Daniel would you mind If I look it over I heard of this famous harp years ago back in my home town But I sure never thought old Daniel be the one to come and bring it around Tell me Daniel how the harp came into your possession Are you one of the chosen few who will march in the the procession? And Daniel said The sacred harp was handed down, from father unto son And me not being related, I could never be the one So I saved up all my silver, and took it to a man Who said he could deliver the harp, straight into my hand Three years I waited patiently 'Till he returned with the harp from the sea of Galilee He said there is one more thing I must ask But not of personal greed But I wouldn't listen I just grabbed the harp And said take what you may need Now Daniel looked quite satisfied, and the harp it seemed to glow But the price that Daniel had really paid, he did not even know Back to his brother he took his troubled mind And he said dear brother I'm in a bind But the brother would not hear his tale He said Old Daniel's gonna land in jail So to his father Daniel did run And he said oh father what have I done His father said son you've given in, you know you won your harp But you lost in sin Then Daniel took the harp and went high on the hill And he blew across the meadow like a whippoorwhill He played out his heart just the time to pass But as he looked to the ground, he noticed no shadow did he cast

[Verse 1] Now deep in the heart of a lonely kid Who suffered so much for what he did They gave this ploughboy his fortune and fame Since that day he ain't been the same [Chorus] See the man with the stage fright Just standin' up there to give it all his might And he got caught in the spotlight But when we get to the end He wants to start all over again [Verse 2] I've got fire water right on my breath And the doctor warned me I might catch a death Said, "You can make it in your disguise Just never show the fear that's in your eyes" [Chorus] [Verse 3] Now if he says that he's afraid Take him at his word And for the price that the poor boy has paid He gets to sing just like a bird, oh, ooh ooh ooh [Verse 4] Your brow is sweatin' and your mouth gets dry Fancy people go driftin' by The moment of truth is right at hand Just one more nightmare you can stand [Chorus] [Coda] Hmm hmm You wanna try it once again, hmm hmm Please don't make him stop, hmm hmm Let him take it from the top, hmm hmm Let him start all over again

The Rumor 04:16
Now when the rumor comes to your town It grows, it grows, where it started no one knows Some of your neighbors will invite it right in Maybe it's a lie, even if it's a sin, they'll repeat the rumor again Close your eyes, hang down your head Until a fog blows away, let it blow away Open up your arms and feel the good It's a'comin', a brand new day Big men little men turn into dust Maybe it was all in fun, didn't mean to ruin no one Could there be someone among this crowd Who's been accused had his name so misused and his privacy refused Close your eyes, hang your head Until a fog blows away, let it blow away Open up your arms and feel the good It's a'comin', a brand new day Now all you vigilantes want to make a move Maybe they won't, you know I sure hope they don't For whether this rumor proves true or false You can forgive, a'you can regret, but you can never ever forget Close your eyes, hang down your head Until a fog blows away Open up your arms and feel the good It's a'comin', a brand new day

about

We celebrate the 50th anniversary of STAGE FRIGHT, the trendsetting LP by one of rock’s most important bands, in STAGE FRIGHT at 50 - An Ovation. Our ensemble of sixteen musicians is led by co-producers John Heithaus and the multi-Grammy® winner Kevin McKendree, and features inspired original performances by seasoned Grammy™-winning and nominated artists, along with exceptional vocalists representing Nashville‘s growing crop of emerging talent.

Our Ovation endeavors to carefully reimagine these classic songs with stellar roots-influenced musical arrangements and is complemented by our vocalists’ fresh artistic interpretations of each song - thereby exploring a wide range of emotions that all humans share: peace, escape, introspection, frivolity and more.

The seminal LP peaked at #5 on the billboard album charts, surpassing the band’s first two commercial albums. Widely noted for its musically diverse and lyrically-rich songs, STAGE FRIGHT has been widely credited as a primary founding influence in American roots music, merging rock, country, blues influences - and inspiring countless songwriters and musicians around the globe. With a renewed respect and admiration for Messrs. Danko, Helm, Hudson, Manuel, and Robertson, we’re elated to present Stage Fright At 50 – An Ovation.
