"Fall City" lyrics
"Fall City"
Fall City in the winter
At the Raging River Bar
Shannon, she enjoys the company
When the locals start to get a bit too rowdy
She's a mother to anyone who's dancin' with a drink
You got somethin' on your mind?
Tell Mama, but the bar closes at three
We got a breakdown on the highway
And we're holdin' up a string a trucks
But my old man he'll take care of us
He's got a baseball bat to hold up the hood
He knows a friend of a friend
Who can give us a jump if we get stuck
We never been too good with our money
Or should I say, the money ain't never been good to us
We'll put a tip jar up at the market
Get us half a good tank of gas
We may not have much, but we have somethin' to talk about
And when the music's playin' "This Little Light of Mine"
It won't ever burn out
You've got troubles on your mind, sing a tune
And let those troubles out

Patty Griffin - "River" Isn't she a river?
She doesn't need a diamond to shine
You can't really have her
But you can hold her for a time
Takes an army just to bend her
Be careful where you stand her
You can't hold her back...
Bill Callahan - "Rococo Zephyr" She lay beside me
Like a branch from a tender willow tree
I was as still
As still as a river could be
When a rococo zephyr (rococo)
Swept over
Her and me (rococo)
She watched the water ripple ripple...
Gillian Welch - "Cowboy Rides Away" Last call was an hour ago
Some drinking up and going home
I'm counting you a no-show
So what can I say?
I ought to be leaving town
Start walking with my head turned down
I can't afford to hang...
