The Holiday Song
Well sit right down my wicked son
And let me tell you a story
About the boy who fell from glory
And how he was a wicked son
This aint no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am with my hand
He took his sister from his head
And then painted her on the sheets
And then rolled her up in grass and trees
And they kissed till they were dead
This aint no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand
Well sit right down my evil son
And let me tell you a story
About the boy who fell from glory
And how he was a wicked son
This aint no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand
This aint no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand

Holiday
Holiday,
Oh what a lovely day today,
Im so glad they sent me away,
To have a little holiday today, holiday,
Holiday,
And Im just standing on the end of a pier,
Hoping and dreaming you were here,
To share my little holiday,
Lookin in the sky, for a gap in the clouds,
Sometimes I think that sun aint never coming out,
But Id rather be here than in that dirty old town,
I had to leave the city cos it broke me down,
Oh holiday, oh what a lovely day today,
I think Ill get down on my little knees and pray, thank you lord,
Thank heaven for this holiday, holiday,
Im leaving insecurity behind me,
The environmental pressures got me down,
I dont need no sedatives to pull me round,
I dont need no sleeping pills to help me sleep sound,
Oh holiday,
Oh what a lovely day today,
I think Ill get down on my knees and pray,
Thats what Ill do,
Thank heaven for this holiday,
Lying on the beach with my back burned rare,
And the salt gets in my blisters and the sand gets in my hair,
And the seas an open sewer,
But I really couldnt care,
Im breathing through my mouth so I dont have to sniff the air,
Oh holiday,
Oh what a lovely day today,
Im so glad they sent me away,
To have a little holiday.

Holiday
Well the super models in those magazines
They've been to places that I've never dreamed
Well they look so nice out on some sandy beach
But for me I've always found it out of reach
Ooooooooo take me on a holiday
Ooooooooo I need a holiday
The hotel and life for me would be alright
We could always catch an early mornin' flight
As you treat yourself like in a movie scene
But its just another place I've never been
Ooooooooo take me on a holiday
Ooooooooo I need a holiday
I call you up on your telephone
And leave a message there since your not home
I've got to go I've got to get away
Please come and take me on a holiday
Ooooooooo take me on a holiday
Last nite I dreamed I was in Sante Fe
And then went on a flight to San Jose
Well I know that you don't really like to fly
But to see the world maybe you'd like to try
Ooooooooo take me on a holiday
Ooooooooo I need a holiday
Ooooooooo take me on a holiday
Need a holiday

Fortunate Son
Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Ooh, theyre red, white and blue
And when the band plays hail to the chief
They point the cannon right at you
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no senators son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand
Lord they dont help themselves
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no millionaires son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son
Some folks inherit star spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war
And when you ask them how much should we give ?
They only answer more! more! more!
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no militarys son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate one, no no
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son

He Aint With Me
Calling all these other guys
Im seeing something I didnt before
Is that a new look in your eyes
Now you dont believe that Im asking for more
I saw you walking down the street
With another girl who looks just like me
People always say we look so happy
He took my love but he didnt take me
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He says he loves me but he dont look in my eyes
But Ill take it till its all gone cause
He aint with me but at least Im not alone
You say you laughed with your old girlfriend
Youre doing nothing to encourage the end
I could be charming on long distance too
And if you want Ill make it easier for you
Communication is the key
Interrogation dont work for me
You saw that other guy smiling at me
If you were here I wouldnt act so free
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He says he loves me but he dont look in my eyes
He likes to hold my hand in public
Stranger cant you see he aint with me
He aint with me he aint with me no more
He aint with me he aint with me
Bridge
I guess fate really has my number
Every time you wander away
I reconsider all the time you said youd stay
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He aint with me no more
He likes to hold my hand in public
He aint with me he aint with me
But Ill take it till its all gone cause
He aint with me but at least Im not alone
He aint with me

It Aint A Party - If You Cant Come round
It aint a party - if you cant come round
You can drive the car - Ill play my ol guitar
Come back to me - come back to me
Ya we can get some beer - ya lets get outta here
Come back to me - come back to me
Well find a place to go - no one will ever know
Somewhere thats outta town
Put a blanket on the ground - baby
N we can really go crazy
Babe it aint a party - if you cant come round
Cant even get started - if you dont come down
Even saturday - aint a holiday - if you stay away
No - no it aint a party - if you cant come round
Slip into somethin tight - well slip into the night
Come back to me - come back to me
Well see the sun go down - n maybe fool around
Come back to me - come back to me
Ya we can start a fire - maybe get a little higher
Dont worry what to bring - cuz we got everything - baby
And we can really go crazy
Babe it aint a party - if you cant come round
Cant even get started - if you dont come down
Even saturday - aint a holiday - if you stay away
No - no it aint a party - if you cant come round

Put A Little Holiday In Your Heart
(roger wojahn/scott wojahn/greg wojahn)
Feel the cold wind blowing-winters coming on
tis the season, so they say
If you need help believing cause your spirit aint too strong
Hold my hand--well push that cloud away
Put a little holiday in your heart
Itll put a little shuffle in your step
Give you a song that you can sing
With a melody you cant forget
And if you wanna join in a little harmony
To keep the world from tearin apart
Well you know where to look
Yeah--you gotta put a little holiday in your heart
Theres a man on the corner who doesnt have a name
People pass and turn their heads away
But to share a simple kindness would set your heart aflame
And youll get more than youll ever give away
Put a little holiday in your heart
Itll put a little shuffle in your step
Give you a song that you can sing
With a melody you cant forget
And if you wanna join in a little harmony
To keep the world from tearin apart
Well you know where to look
Yeah--you gotta put a little holiday in your heart
It starts with you, it starts with me
That aint no stranger, hes family and it dont matter if we agree
It all comes down to love
Put a little holiday in your heart
Itll put a little shuffle in your step
Give you a song that you can sing
With a melody you cant forget
And if you wanna join in a little harmony
To keep the world from tearin apart
Well you know where to look
Yeah--you gotta put a little holiday in your heart

Kings Highway
Walkin down kings highway
With a brown paper bag in my hand
Nothin else but the clothes I got on
But I aint lookin back
I aint lookin back
Blame it on the midnight girl
And that wicked spell she cast
She pulled me in with them liquid eyes
Now I aint looking back
I aint looking back
Oh what a tangled web she weaves
I was losing my mind
Starin down the barrel of a gun
Its just a matter of time
Walkin down kings highway
Black cat crossin my path
I know thats her trying to make me stay
But, I aint looking back
I aint looking back
Kings highway
I got to travel that

Never Walk Alone
Keep searchin for someone to tell me the truth
It seems like the longer I wait
Hesitate, it comes down to you
Time wont heal
Love aint real anymore
Halfway to daylight
And my heart is open wide
It seems like the time that we shared
When we cared
It has passed us by
Life aint fair, when I stare
At this picture of you
I feel the touch of your hand
And the look in your eyes
Oh! dont ya know I feel just like dying
When the tears start to fall
And my heart turns to stone
Im tellin you baby
I never walk alone
Life aint fair, when I stare
At this picture of you
I still feel the touch of your hand
And the look in your eyes
Oh! lord I feel like dying
Cause when the tears start to fall
And my heart turns to stone
I never walk alone

Aint It Blue?
Done the things I said I would
Some of them were pretty good
Suddenly they changed the game
I only know its not the same no more
I dont know what to do the rules I knew
Aint it sad
Aint it sad
Aint it true
Aint it true
Aint it blue
Aint it blue
The life I live is pretty nice
Of course I had to pay a price
Lots of folks depend on me
Crazy kind of slavery, what for
I dont know what to do the rules I knew
Aint it sad
Aint it sad
Aint it true
Aint it true
Aint it blue
Aint it blue
Aint it blue
Sometimes I want to walk away
I felt like that just yesterday
But then this song is in my head
I try my best till Im dead and gone
I dont know what to do the rules I knew
Aint it sad
Aint it sad
Aint it true

Dreadlock Holiday
I was walkin down the street
Concentratin on truckin right
I heard a dark voice beside of me
And I looked round in a state of fright
I saw four faces one mad a brother from the gutter
They looked me up and down a bit and turned to each other
(I say) I dont like cricket-a oh no I love it-a yeah
I dont like cricket-a no no I love it-a yeah
Dont you walk through my words you got to show some respect
Dont you walk through my words cause you aint heard me out yet
Well he looked down at my silver chain
He said Ill give you one dollar
I said youve got to be joking man
It was a present from me mother
He said I like it I wan it Ill take it off your hands
An youll be sorry youd crossed me
Youd better understand that youre a long, a long way from home
(and I say) I dont like reggae-a no no I love it-a hey
I dont like reggae-a yeah yeah I love it-a oh yeah
Dont you cramp me style dont you queer me pitch
Dont you walk through my words cause you
Aint heard me out yet
I hurried back to the swimming pool
Sinkin pina colada
I heard a dark voice beside me say
Would you like something hotter
She said Ive got it you wan it my harvest is the best
And if you try it youll like it and wallow in the
Dreadlock holiday, dreadlock holiday, dreadlock holiday
(and I say) dont like jamaica oh no I love her hey
Dont like jamaica oh no I love her oh yeh
Dont you walk through my words you got to show some respect
Dont you walk through my words cause you aint heard me out yet
I dont like cricket-a oh no I love it-a dreadlock holiday

Uncle John From Jamaica
8 oclock get up get outta bed
I feel like a truck ran over my head
Another day of stress and sorrow
Skip breakfast, cause I gotta go
Aint got no time to take it slow
And I will do my hair tomorrow
I cant take it no more
Oh no no no
Is this what Im living for?
But my uncle john from jamaica
Keeps on calling every day
Just buy a ticket and take a
Summer holi - holiday
6 oclock my job is still not done
The life Im living aint no fun
Too many days of stress and sorrow
My boss just wont give me a break
And this is more than I can take
Think I will quit this job tomorrow

Ill Be Here A While
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while
Far is solace in the maddening pace
Sad state written on my face
Not a tight rope walk but dance
Uncertain game of chance
But Ill see it through in time
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while
And if a person place or thing can deliver
I will quiver with delight
Tempted by the hand that could
Blind my vision and sight
But at twenty years of age
In frolic and in rage
I will see it through in time
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Ill be here a while
But the dawn has come into the endless night
And everythings going to be alright
But at thirty years of age
Through frolic and in rage
All regressed and healed in time
Ill be here a while, aint going nowhere
Said i, said i, said i, I will survive

Pleasant Thoughts
A holiday, a holiday,
a real chance to get away.
To catch a plane, a boat, a train,
or cruise on down the inside lane.
With different views and how-do-you-dos,
and many interesting venues.
A holiday, a holiday.
Having found a place to stay,
enjoy the sights that greet the eyes,
sea, sun and sand with clear blue skies.
All of these things can so make your break,
a time to rest and ruminate.
A holiday, a holiday,
well inland, or out in a bay.
Sail a yacht maybe. Play a spot
of golf. Then if it gets too hot,
rest beside a pool. And to cool down,
take a dip, or turn a glowing brown.
A holiday, a holiday.
Book it right now with no delay.
Choose somewhere you would like to be,
locations for serenity,
siestas out under the stars,
or ones for fun and noise in bars.
A holiday, a holiday.
There’s something that I want to say.
Have a really long super spell,
of relaxation. One can dwell
on pleasant thoughts. Troubles to quell.
Revival of body and mind,
rejuvenating humankind.

Ive lead a lifetime fightin this land
Workin for nothin with these dry and callused hands
Im a slave to the sun it aint cuttin me no slack
Gets me beggin whenever I look back
Aint no glory in this livin
Aint no runnin from your sins
I hope theres angels where Im goin
Aint no angels where Ive been
Three generations countin on me
To work this farm keep it in the family
Well Ive done all I can but its past becomin clear
That I cant hold out much longer here
Aint no glory in this livin
Aint no runnin from your sins
I hope theres angels where Im goin
Aint no angels where Ive been
Aint no glory in this livin
Aint no runnin from your sins

Why the merry bells keep ringing
May your every wish come true

May the calender keep bringing
Happy holiday to you
I'm dreaming of a white christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white christmas
With every christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your christmases be white
