Lyrics -
Shadow and Sun
(G. Gothard)
When the work is done under August sun
We will dance all night under paintbrush skies
Tune your fiddle and come when the day is done
Play a merry tune for the shadow and sun
CHORUS
Oh shadow and sun
Oh sing shadow and sun
Oh shadow and sun
Oh sing - singin’ shadow and sun
And when the hard times come and the shadows fall
With your worn out shoes and a weary soul
Bring your fiddle and come when the day is done
Play the merry tune called the shadow and sun
CHORUS
‘Til we meet again by the bonfire light
As I walk out and face the wind and rain
I will whistle and hum when the day is done
Sing our merry tune for the shadow and sun
CHORUS
Cat and the Fiddle
(G. Gothard, W. Gothard)
Good ‘ol moonlight through the night
Keep it up, good work, shining bright
I’ve waited all day for my chance to play
I’ll fiddle all night and I’ll sleep all day
CHORUS
This old fiddle’s seen every place
Miles on the road and dust on the case
Hey diddle diddle and a hop to the right
Like a cat with a fiddle in the pale moonlight
’Who’ said the owl ‘will watch with me’
’You and the moon and me make three
The dish and the spoon ran away last night
Hope the fork and the knife will be alright’
CHORUS
’Oh’ said the mouse as she saw me there
’If I was not so small new shoes I’d wear
I’d join that fiddler for a dance or two
I’d leap and I’d tap ‘til he told me shoo’
CHORUS
CHORUS
Dragonfly
(G. Gothard, W. Gothard, S. Gothard)
Fly fast along the water, o’er the woods of pine
Maybe I’ll leap forward, or go back in time
Zig-zag the rushing river, soar above the line
Maybe I’ll get closer, or get lost again
CHORUS
Dragonfly
Lift my wings and fly
Dragonfly
The river will take me all the way back home
Head south into the desert, under mountain caves
By following the river, I will be just fine
Weave ‘round the ancient cedar, it’s a lucky sign
I’ll stay this way forever, or I’ll change my mind
CHORUS
Spin high into the thunder, through the pouring rain
Maybe I’ll go under, or I’ll chase the sun
Pass far but circle closer, don’t be terrified
Maybe I’ll take cover, or dance in the rain
CHORUS
CHORUS
