00:00I'm not saying that I love you
00:13I'm not saying that I'll care
00:17If you love me
00:19I'm not saying that I'll care
00:22I'm not saying I'll be there
00:24When you want me
00:26I can give my heart to you
00:30Or tell you that I'll sing your name
00:34Up to the sky
00:36I won't lay the promise down
00:39That I'll always be around
00:42When you need me
00:43Now I may not be alone
00:48Each time you see me
00:49Along the street
00:52Or in a small cafe
00:53But still I won't deny you
00:57Or mistreat you
00:58Baby if you let me have my way
01:02I'm not saying I'll be sorry
01:06For all the things that I might say
01:11That make you cry
01:13I can't say I'll always do
01:16The things you want me to
01:18I'm not saying I'll be true
01:20But I'll try
01:21Now I may not be alone
01:35Each time you see me
01:37Or show up when I promised
01:40That I would
01:41But still I won't deny you
01:42But still I won't deny you
01:44Or mistreat you
01:46Baby if you love me
01:49Like you should
01:50I'm not saying I'll be sorry
01:54For all the things that I might say
01:58That make you cry
02:00I can't say I'll always do
02:03The things you want me to
02:05I'm not saying I'll be true
02:08But I'll try
02:09I can't say I'll always do
02:12The things you want me to
02:14I'm not saying I'll be true
02:16But I'll try
02:18Thank you
02:29Give me some sound will you man
02:32Right I can't
02:35Hey turn up the volume will you please
02:38I can't hear anything
02:39Groovy thanks
02:46If I could sing like the poets
02:55Seeking to this world
02:57If I could rise like the wind
03:03Over the tides of the field
03:06I would sing you to sleep
03:11My love with sweet melody
03:14And let you dream away
03:20Till the morning light
03:22Return again
03:24To take you away from me
03:28If I could speak with the tongues
03:35Of the masters of old
03:38If I could tame all the pleading perceptions
03:44I hold
03:46Would I stand in the market
03:52Listed for you
03:55To be shouted down
03:59Without any warning at all
04:02To be stood by the wall
04:04A shot by the man in blue
04:07If I could run
04:18With the grace of a sun-colored stallion
04:22If I could rise like the gray
04:27Silver jets in the morning
04:30If I caused the wind
04:36To change
04:37With one wave of my hand
04:39If I could play
04:43The final symphony
04:46And set it free
04:48Would it mean anything to you
04:51If I could stand like the rusty old man
05:05In his armor
05:06If I could ride at the speed
05:12That he rode in his time
05:14And let him wander through
05:29The meadow grass
05:31Wild and free
05:33For everyone to see
05:36If I could sing
05:46If I could sing like the poets
05:48And kings of this world
05:50If I could rise like the wind
05:56Or the tide could just see
05:58I would sing you to sleep
06:04My love with sweet melody
06:07And let you dream away
06:13Till the morning light
06:15Return again
06:17To take you away from me
06:20To take you away from me
06:50Softly she comes
07:05Whispers the breeze
07:09With her passing
07:11In secret love
07:17She is laughing
07:19Softly she comes
07:25In the night
07:27Softly she sighs
07:34Sweetly she lies
07:37Never sleeping
07:40Her fragrant soul
07:45In my gaping
07:47Softly she comes
07:51Softly she comes
07:53In the night
07:56Down the dark and all I hear
08:06Her footsteps on my stare
08:10And she is in my arms once more
08:17And softly she goes
08:22Her shining lips in the shadow
08:28Whisper goodbye at my window
08:37Softly she goes in the dark
08:44Down the dark and all I hear
08:54Her footsteps on my stare
08:58And she is in my arms once more
09:05And softly she goes
09:12And softly she goes
09:14And softly she goes in the dark
09:20Whisper goodbye at my window
09:26And softly she goes in the dark
09:32Softly she goes in the dark
09:34Softly she goes in the dark
09:54Thank you.
10:24I'm going to get this wheel back on the track. I can't hold on, but I can't let go. And I can't say yes, I can't say no. Holes in the pockets and holes in my shoes. If you're ready for me, I'm ready for you.
10:39Company plan takes all my pay. Got a child in July and another last May. Boss man, boss man, what do you say? I'm going to get you alone in the mine someday. Boss man, boss man, clear the track. You're going to tear the skin right off of my back.
10:55Boss man, boss man, what do you say? I'm going to get you alone in the mine someday. I can't hold on, but I can't let go. And I can't say yes, I can't say no.
11:09Boss man, boss man, what do you say? I'm going to get you alone in the mine someday. Boss man, boss man, clear the track. You're going to tear the skin right off of my back.
11:34Boss man, boss man, what do you say? If you can't lend a hand, get out of my way. It'll be murder in the first degree if you ever lay your hands on me. Boss man, boss man, pay my rent.
11:48Because the dollar I've earned is the dollar I've spent. A company plan takes all my checks. I'm breaking my back and risking my death.
11:55Boss man, boss man, boss man, what do you say? I'm going to get you alone in the mine someday.
12:01I can't hold on, but I can't let go. And I can't say yes, I can't say no.
12:07Pah!
12:18Thank you.
12:19Black day in July
12:31Motor city madness
12:35Has touched the countryside
12:37As to the smoke and cinders
12:40You can hear it far and wide
12:42The doors are quickly bolted
12:44And the children locked inside
12:47Black day in July
12:49Black day in July
12:52In the streets of Motor City
12:55There's a deathly silent sound
12:58As the body of a dead youth
13:01Lies stretched upon the ground
13:03Upon the filthy pavements
13:05No reason can be found
13:07Black day in July
13:10Black day in July
13:13The soul of Motor city is bared across the land
13:19The soul of Motor city is bared across the land
13:20As the book of law and order
13:22Is taken in the hands
13:24Of the sons of the fathers
13:26Who were carried to this land
13:29Black day in July
13:31Black day in July
13:33Black day in July
13:35Motor city madness
13:37Motor city madness
13:38Has touched the countryside
13:40Motor city madness
13:41Motor city madness
13:42Has touched the countryside
13:43Motor city madness
13:43Has touched the countryside
13:44And the people rise in anger
13:45And the streets begin to fill
13:46And there's gunfire from the rooftops
13:47And the blood begins to spill
13:48Black day in July
13:49Black day in July
13:52Black day in July
13:59In the mansion of the governor
14:00There's nothing that is known for sure
14:03The telephone is ringing
14:04And the pendulum is swinging
14:06And they wonder how it happened
14:08And they really know the reason
14:11And it wasn't just the temperature
14:13And it wasn't just the season
14:15Black day in July
14:18Black day in July
14:21Motor city is burning
14:24And the flames are running wild
14:27They reflect upon the waters
14:29Of the river and the lake
14:31And everyone is listening
14:33And everyone's awake
14:36Black day in July
14:38Black day in July
14:42The printing press is turning
14:45And the news is quickly flashed
14:48And you read your morning paper
14:50And you sip your cup of tea
14:52And you wonder just in passing
14:54Is it him or is it me?
14:57Black day in July
15:04In the office of the president
15:06The deed is done, the troops have sent
15:08There's really not much choice you see
15:10It looks to us like anarchy
15:12And then the tanks go rolling in
15:14To patch things up as best they can
15:16There is no time to hesitate
15:18There is no time to hesitate
15:19The speech is made
15:20The dudes can wait
15:21Black day in July
15:23Black day in July
15:25Black day in July
15:27The streets of Motor City
15:29Now are quiet and surreal
15:31But the shapes of God's buildings
15:34Strike terror to the heart
15:36And you say how did it happen
15:38And you say how did it start
15:40Why can't we all be brothers
15:42Why can't we live in peace
15:44And the hands of the have-nots
15:46Keep falling out of reach
15:49Black day in July
15:52Black day in July
15:54Black day in July
15:57Motor city madness
15:59Has touched the countryside
16:01As to the smoke and cinders
16:04You can hear it far and wide
16:06The doors are quickly bolted
16:08And the children locked inside
16:11Black day in July
16:14Black day in July
16:17Black day in July
16:20Black day in July
16:22Black day in July
16:23Black day in July

47:17Tell me, girl, I'll try to make amends
47:20Or give me my unsettled ways
47:25Don't linger in time or think of what's mine
47:30Don't make me do what you wouldn't do yourself
47:34Don't make me do what you wouldn't do yourself
47:38That was a little country song.
47:49We're going to do two more songs and then split.
47:52The cold blood, the cold blood will be out.
47:56And, well, geez, I don't know.
47:59We do the last time.
48:00It's such a nice tune.
48:01Maybe we could do that.
48:04I don't know what, don't I?
48:05Well,
48:06This song is written for dear old grandmother
48:11It was taken from us, our family, a short time ago, God rest her soul
48:17By the RCMP for bootlegging
48:19Grandmother gave birth to a very large family
48:25Due to the fact that she was hard of hearing
48:28Every night when her aunt grandfather would go to bed
48:33He'd look at her across the bedroom
48:34He'd say, well, do you want to sleep or what?
48:36And she'd say, what?
48:37There's a song to warm the cockles of your heart
48:58It's called Give Me a Bus Goodbye
49:01For sea willows, cocktails, soft winds and roses
49:14Rain pools in the woodland
49:17Water to my ear
49:20Shivering, quivering, the warm breath of spring
49:26Riding on the roadside, the dusk it's in your eyes
49:40Riding on the roadside, the dusk it's in your eyes
49:42Riding on the roadside, the dusk it's in your eyes
49:47Riding on the roadside, the dusk it's in your eyes
49:51Ravelling, disheveling, the summer nights can bring
49:57Pussy willows, cat tails, soft winds and roses
50:02Slighted rays and colored days, stark blue horizons
50:22Naked limbs and wheat bins, hazy afternoons
50:28Voicing, rejoicing, the wine cups do bring
50:34Sea willows, cat tails, soft winds and roses
50:40Harsh nights and candlelights, wood fires are blazing
50:52Soft lips and fingertips, resting in my soul
50:59Treasuring, remembering, the promise of spring
51:05Sea willows, cat tails, soft winds and roses
51:13Thank you
51:27We've got one more that we're going to do
51:34A song written for a television show
51:37There was a time in this fair land when the railroad did not run
51:58In the wild majestic mountains stood alone against the sun
52:03Long before the white man and long before the wheel
52:09When the green dark forest was too silent to be real
52:14And no beginnings and history has no bounds
52:25As to this verdant country they came from all around
52:30They sailed upon her waterways and they walked the forest tall
52:36Built the mines and mills and the factories for the good of us all
52:41I think it's mine then
52:45And when the young man's fancy was turning to the spring
52:53And the railroad men grew restless for to heal the hammer's ring
52:58Their minds were overflowing with the visions of their day
53:04And many a fortune won and lost and many a debt to pay
53:09For they looked in the future and wanted to see us on our road
53:18Running from the sea to the sea
53:20Bringing the goods to a young growing land
53:23All up from the seaboard and into their hands
53:27But the waves had they in across this mighty land
53:35From the eastern shore to the western strait
53:42Bring the workers and bring up the rails
53:46We gotta lay down the tracks and tear up the trails
53:50Open your heart, let the lifeblood flow
53:53Gotta get on our way cause we're moving too slow
53:57Bring the workers and bring up the rails
54:00We gotta lay down the tracks and tear up the trails
54:04Open your heart, let the lifeblood flow
54:07Gotta get on our way cause we're moving too slow
54:11Get on our way cause we're moving too slow
54:14Behind the blue rock is the sun is declining
54:29The stars they can steal in at the close of the day
54:36Across the white prairie our loved ones lie sleeping
54:45Beyond the dark oceans in a place far away
54:52We are the navvies who work upon the railway
55:01Swinging our hammers in the bright blazing sun
55:09Living on stew and drinking bad whiskey
55:17Lending our tracks and drinking bad whiskey
55:19Lending our tracks till the long days are done
55:25We are the navvies who work upon the railway
55:33Swinging our hammers in the bright blazing sun
55:42Lending our tracks and building bridges
55:50Lending our tracks till the railroad is done
56:00So over the mountains and over the plains
56:14Into the muskeg and into the rain
56:18Up to St. Lawrence all the way to Gaspe
56:21Swinging our hammers and drawing a pair
56:25Driving them in and tying them down
56:28Away to the bunkhouse and into the town
56:32A dollar a day and a place for my head
56:35A drink to the living, a toast to the dead
56:39Oh, the song of the future has been sung
56:45All the battles have been won
56:48On the mountaintops we stand
56:52All the world at our command
56:55We have opened up the soil
56:59With our teardrops and our toil
57:03For there was time in this fair land
57:09When the railroad did not run
57:10And the wild majestic mountain
57:14Stood alone against the sun
57:16Long before the white man
57:19And long before the wheel
57:21When the green dark forest
57:24Was too silent to be real
57:27When the green dark forest
57:30Was too silent to be real
57:32Many are the dead men
57:36Too silent
57:39Could be real
57:44Thank you
57:54That's Red Shea
57:55And John Stockfish
57:57Thank you very much
57:58Thank you very much
58:00Thank you very much
