"Don't Let The Devil Ride"
Don't let the devil ride,
Oh, don't let the devil ride,
If you let the devil ride,
He will want to drive,
Don't let him ride
Don't let him flag you down
Oh, oh, don't you let him flag you down
If he flags you down, he turns your soul around
Don't let him ride
Don't you let him be your boss
Don't you let him be your boss
If you let him be your boss,
Your soul will be lost,
Don't let him ride
Don't let him drive your car
Don't you let him drive your car
If you let him drive your car,
He's sure to go too far
Don't let him drive
Don't let him call your name
Don't you let him call your name
If you let him call your name
You get there just the same
Don't let him ride
Don't let the devil ride
Don't you let the devil ride

Take Me Home Down Country Roads
J. Denver
Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
All my memories gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Look at how the moon shines, teardrop in my eye
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
I hear her voice in the mornin' hour, she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road, I get a feelin'
That I should've been home yesterday, yesterday
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, (down) country roads
Take me home, (down) country roads
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
All my memories gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Look at how the moon shines, teardrop in my eye
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
I hear her voice in the mornin' hour, she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road, I get a feelin'
That I should've been home yesterday, yesterday
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, (down) country roads
Take me home, (down) country roads
Intery, Mintery
Intery, Mintery, Cuttery, Corn
Apple seed, and briar thorn
Wire, briar, limber lock
Five geese to make a flock
2 flew east, 2 flew west
1 flew over the cuckoo’s nest
Sit and sing, by a spring
O-U-T and in again

Kissy, Kissy, Huggy, Huggy
I swam way down in the deep blue sea
And a big ugly fish came a swimmin’ towards me.
He said “I think I like you fine
And I want you to be my Valentine.”
Kissy, kissy
Huggy, huggy
Smooch, smooch, smooch.
Kissy, kissy
Huggy, huggy
Eeewww…
I climbed up the hill with heavy backpack
And came face to face with a hairy Yak.
He said “I think I like you fine
And I want you to be my Valentine.”
I was on the ground tryin’ to chase a snail
And looked straight up at a fat skunk tail.
He said “I think I like you fine
And I want you to be my Valentine.”
I was way up high on the top of a tree
With a hungry buzzard just a-starin’ at me.
He said “I think I like you fine
And I want you to be my Valentine.”
I went deep in to a dark, dark cave
When a cranky bear gave me a wave.
He said “I think I like you fine
And I want you to be my Valentine.”
I was soaring through the air in my bright red glider
And I felt him ‘for I saw him, Eeek! A great big spider.
He said “I think I like you fine
And I want you to be my Valentine.”
And a big ugly fish came a swimmin’ towards me.
