TAPESTRY OF LIFE
Writer: Vicki Morrison Goble
A butterfly has wings of dark and light.
The hues blend into vivid colors bright.
Your faith can weave all the pain that you feel
Into a tapestry of life as you heal.
Da da dut da da dut
da da dut da da dut
da da da da da da da da dut
Da da dut da da dut
da da dut da da dut
da da da da da da dut
A butterfly has wings of dark and light.
The hues blend into vivid colors bright.
Your faith can weave all the pain that you feel
Into a tapestry of life as you heal.
When tribulations leave your soul in pain,
Love’s transformation swells to make you whole again
Oh dark and light, deep and wide,
you will find the strength inside
Butterfly, soar, butterfly, soar,
butterfly, soar high, grow stronger.
A butterfly has wings of dark and light.
The hues blend into vivid colors bright.
Your faith can weave all the pain that you feel
Into a tapestry of life as you heal.
Life is calling and evolving, put your fears away.
Life is flowing, always growing stronger ev’ry day.
A butterfly has wings of dark and light.
The hues blend into vivid colors bright.
Your faith can weave all the pain that you feel
Into a tapestry of life as you heal.
Into a tapestry of life as you heal.
Into a tapestry of life as you heal.

Scarborough Fair
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
He once was a true love of mine
Tell him to make me a pretty white shirt
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Without a seam or fine needlework
Then he'll be a true love of mine
Love imposes impossible tasks
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Straight from my heart this favor I ask
That he can prove he's a true love of mine
Oh, are you going to Scarborough Fair
going out to the fair
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
He once was a true love of mine

The Water Is Wide

The water is wide, we can't cross over
And neither have we wings to fly
Let's build a boat that will carry two
Then we can row to the other side
I'll take an oar; you take one too
And through the ocean waves we'll go
Oh, side by side we'll pull and glide
In harmony we both will row
The water is wide, we can't cross over
And neither have we wings to fly
Let's build a boat that will carry two
Then we can row to the other side
Someday we'll reach a distant shore
We'll cross the sea, so wide and blue
And on the way our dreams will grow
Our fondest wishes all come true
And on the way our dreams will grow
Our fondest wishes all come true

Hand me down my walkin' cane
Hand me down my walkin' cane
Hand me down my walkin' cane
Lord, I'm leavin' on a midnight train
Cause all my sins been taken away
Hand me down my walkin' cane
Hand me down my walkin' cane
Hand me down my walkin' cane
Lord, I'm leavin' on a midnight train
Cause all my sins been taken away
Hand me down my walkin' cane
Hand me down my walkin' cane
Hand me down my walkin' cane
Lord, I'm leavin' on a midnight train
Cause all my sins been taken away
All my sins been taken away
All my sins been taken away

The Undertaker Man
03:14

Cinderella Jackson from a town in Minnesota
Had four different fella friends who used to come to court her
One was a barber man, another was a baker
The third a railroad porter and the fourth an undertaker
The barber, he was sharp and keen; the baker had the dough
The porter was a sport; the undertaker was dead slow.
Each man of the four thought he was better than the rest
She had to choose the one she loved the best.
Which of them would Cinderella wed?
“I’ll tell you this,” our Cinderella said.
“I don’t mind talkin’ and I don’t mind walkin’
with the baker man, that’s true
I like to croon and I like to spoon with the railroad porter too
I squeeze the barber when he comes around
and I call him precious lamb
But there ain’t nothin’ doin’ at all with the undertaker man.”
After Cinderella made her candid declaration
The undertaker soon awoke from his imagination
There sat the barber man, the baker and the porter
All laughing ‘cuz the undertaker couldn’t come to court her.
The undertaker felt real hurt and said, “Well listen, men
You all may laugh and mock me, but I’ll get her in the end!”
She said, “You haven’t got a chance and you will surely find
That you can never, ever change my mind.
Marry you? Not ever in my life
Will I consent to be your wedded wife.”
“I don’t mind talkin’ and I don’t mind walkin’
with the baker man, that’s true
I like to croon and I like to spoon with the railroad porter too
I squeeze the barber when he comes around
and I call him precious lamb
But there ain’t nothin’ doin’ at all with the undertaker man.
No, there ain’t nothin’ doin’ at all with the undertaker man.”
