The Other Side
(Mark Sandman/Dana Colley)
published by Head With Wings Music/Pubco/BMI
(Used by permission)
Going down to the river
There's a man I wanna see
Yea he's the ferryman
He'll recognize me
I'm going down now to the riverside
There's a place I wanna be
I'm going to talk to the ferryman
He'll be expecting me
I'm crossing over now to the other side
Life is better there on the other side
The grass is greener there on the other side
And I I get even there on the other side
And everything will turn out all right
On the other side
I'm crossing over now to the other side
The other side
I walked by the church house late last night
Yea I walked by the church house but I didn't go inside
Cause I I once slept with the preacher's wife
She handed me a ticket to the other side
I'm crossing over now to the other side
To the other side

If
(Hidalgo/Perez)
Published by Chicken On Fire Music/Hot Churro Music/BMI
If we stood by the river, or by the sea
If we stood by the river, or by the sea
If I could not swim, would you laugh at me?
If the ocean was wine, or filled with gin
If the ocean was whiskey, or filled with gin
Would you lead me way, or would you push me in?
Would you push?

Well I ain't got no use for your red apple juice
I ain't got no honey baby now
Well, I ain't got no sugar baby now
Done all I could do, all I could say
I can't go on living this a way
Well I ain't got no honey baby now
Who'll rock the cradle, who'll sing a song,
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone?
I ain't got no honey baby now
Well I ain't got no use for your red rocking chair
I ain't got no honey baby here
I ain't got no sugar baby now
I've done all I could for to see peace with you
I can't go on living this a way
Well I ain't got no honey baby now
Who'll rock the cradle, who'll sing a song,
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone?
Well I ain't got no honey baby now
Well I ain't got no honey baby now
Well I ain't got no use for your red apple juice
I ain't got no honey baby now
Well, I ain't got no sugar baby now...

Souvenir
by Mark Sandman
I remember meeting you, we were super low
Surrounded by the sounds of saxophones
And I remember being this close, but never alone
You gave me a little something to take home
I dropped it on the floor, I dropped it on the floor
Dropped it on the floor, I dropped it
If I can only remember the name that's enough for me
Because names hold the key, names hold key
If I can only remember the name that's enough for me
Because names hold the key, names hold key
Souvenir of nothing
Brought home a souvenir of nothing
It fits into a pocket
A souvenir, a souvenir of nowhere
Somewhere I've never been before
I dropped it on the floor, I dropped it on the floor
Dropped it on the floor, I dropped it
If I can only remember the name that's enough for me
Because names hold the key, names hold key
If I can only remember the name that's enough for me
Because names hold the key, names hold key
A souvenir of nothing, a souvenir of nothing
