It was late in July, the creek start to swell, where it’ll stop, no one can tell Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek ain’t no one safe from Troublesome Creek Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek Well the rain come down, in dark heavy sheets, a wolf at the door, ain’t no one can beat Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek ain’t no one safe from Troublesome Creek Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek Well it's all they know, all they hold dear Just to survive year after year Life rolls on, both blessed and true And Troublesome Creek - just rolls on too. Troublesome Creek - Troublesome Creek With the creek on the rise, ya head for the hills, run for your liives, up past the mill Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek ain’t no one safe from Troublesome Creek Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek She-takes what she wants, ya’don’t have a say fall to your knees, curse the devil n pray Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek ain’t no one safe from Troublesome Creek Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek Well it's all they know, all they hold dear Just to survive year after year Life rolls on, both blessed and true And Troublesome Creek - just rolls on too. Troublesome Creek-Troublesome Creek Troublesome Creek, crashed into town left the next day, without a sound Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek ain’t no one safe from Troublesome Creek Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek Water knee high to a crab apple tree Bridge washed out, ain't nowhere to flee Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek ain’t no one safe from Troublesome Creek Troublesome Creek -Troublesome Creek Troublesome Creeeeeeek oh Troublesome Creek

High in a tree on the top of the hill By the light of the lonesome ol' moon I hear the call of a lone whipporwill Singing his mournful tune. Way off in the night blows the long freight train With a roar and a ramble of wheels My poor heart is breaking with every refrain 'Cause it sounds just like the way I feel. And it's high lonesome High lonesome, heartbroken and blue High lonesome Lil' darling, I'm lonesome for you. Do you ever get weary roamin' around Do you think of the sweet love we knew Do you ever get lonesome the way I am now Lil' darling I'm lonesome for you. And it's high lonesome High lonesome heartbroken and blue It's a high lonesome Lil' darling I'm lonesome for you. Lil' darling I'm lonesome for you...

Did they say you’d be pretty if you smiled a lil more Did they say it would make you great Well I think I’ve heard that a few times before It sounds like some horseshit and I can relate Chorus Hey Mona Lisa you’ve sure got em’ guessing’ what could that smile mean Been drivin’ em crazy, downright distressin’ Hey Mona Lisa We don’t owe them a thing If you were a HE would they steal you away Deface you with a mustache Well I think they failed cuz at the end of the day I’d say you wore it best Chorus Hey Mona Lisa you’ve sure got em’ guessing’ what could that smile mean Been drivin’ em crazy, downright distressin’ Hey Mona Lisa We don’t owe them a thing Bridge: Did you nod and curtsy and swallow it down Every wink and tilt of the glass Well I think you found a way of standing your ground Hid it all behind a look that would last Chorus Hey Mona Lisa you’ve sure got em’ guessing’ what could that smile mean Been drivin’ em crazy, downright distressin’ Hey Mona Lisa We don’t owe them a thing For 500 years you’ve sat with that smirk Quiet calm from age to age Well I think your smile did a whole lotta work took us outta the kitchen n onto this stage Chorus Hey Mona Lisa you’ve sure got em’ guessing’ Been Wonderin’ what that smile could mean Yer drivin’ em crazy, downright distressin’ Hey Mona Lisa We don’t owe them a thing Hey Mona Lisa Share your secret with me

Take Me Home 03:10
Lost highway its a ribbon in the night. I’ll follow it til it fades on down the line Hideaways, n Wild shotgun dives Take me home, leave these places far behind Chorus Oh I wanna go home to those northern lights. Where the pines stretch out across the sky ‘N the stars shine brighter than the sea Oh take me home that’s where they wait for me Almost forgot the comfort of my bed. The way it cradled me and lets me rest my head. And the birds greet each day so true Oh take me home to that life that I once knew. Chorus Oh I wanna go home to those northern lights. Where the pines stretch out across the sky ‘N the stars shine brighter than the sea Oh take me home that’s where they wait for me Take me up to that cabin in the north Trade hotels for backwoods summer forts Take it all as I gladly walk away Oh take me back back to those sunny days Chorus Oh I wanna go home to those northern lights. Where the pines stretch out across the sky ‘N the stars shine brighter than the sea Oh take me home that’s where they wait for me Oh take me home that’s where I wanna be

I am a poor wayfaring stranger Traveling through this world alone There is no sickness toil or danger In that fair land to which I go I know dark clouds will hover over me I know my pathway is rough and steep But golden fields lie out before me Where weary eyes no more shall weep I'm going home to see my mother I'm going home no more to roam I am just going over Jordan I am just going over home I'll soon be free from every trial This form shall rest beneath the sod I'll drop the cross of self-denial And enter in this home with God I'm going home to see my father I'm going home no more to roam I am just going over Jordan I am just going over home. I am just going over Jordan I am just going over home.

Agatha Jones 02:59
She grew up not like the others (dint) Shed those tomboy ways Never wore a dress or combed her hair She lived those wildwood ways Sugar and Spice were part of the batter The rest made up with age Oh the whispers as she walked by They laughed out loud to her face Chorus But Agatha Jones walks a different path Head held high in clouds Oh life sure tried to tether her down But she lives her life out loud She ran the hills of Kentucky It made her mama fret Swam creeks under that big blue sky Ain't nobody caught her yet Chorus Agatha Jones walks a different path Head held high in clouds Oh life sure tried to tether her down But she lives her life out loud She burns the candle at both ends It means she gets it done Holds that wild child in her heart She's all that wrapped in one Chorus Agatha Jones walks a different path Head held high in clouds Life sure tried to tether her down But she lives her life out loud Oh Agatha Jones walks a different path Yeah she lives her life out loud

Monsters 03:32
The night is dark and it’s so hard to see A chill in the air, I can hear my heartbeat But with my mask and cape all the monsters will flee No better monster chaser than me Chorus So would you chase the monsters with me From out the shadows and underneath my bed Oh-oh, so many monsters I’ve seen But I’ve lost my monster chasing net Momma said be brave, so I stared down the night No closet filled with memories will give me a fright I stood on my bed oh what a sight No monster could win in this fight Chorus So would you chase the monsters with me From out the shadows and underneath my bed Oh-oh, so many monsters I’ve seen But I’ve lost my monster chasing net Years have passed since those monster-chasing days Staying up late in my monster-sneaking ways Oh how our efforts were praised When we kept the monsters at bay Chorus So would you chase the monsters with me From out the shadows and underneath my bed Oh-oh, so many monsters I’ve seen But I’ve lost my monster chasing net And if you chase the monsters with me I would be ever in your debt Oh oh so many monsters I’ve seen All of them just living in my head
