Travelling down the tracks of life I never wanna settle down I never need a woman to bring me down As I move from town to town Living down south In blues reel, mojo country There I began to understand There's nobody else, nobody else but me 'Cos I'm a wanderer, wandering free Free as can be My soul sours like a bird And my hearts an open book The open road stretches out ahead But I don't need to look My shangri-la lies up ahead And a searcher lies in me I walk along the roads of life 'Cos I'm wandering free My shoes walk on and on No cares for cold and damp Traveller, vagabond, gypsy, hobo Lover, a thief and tramp The blue skies overhead And the cold wind in my hair I have faith that God's good grace Will always, will always take me there 'Cos I'm a wanderer, wandering free Free as can be Oh, I'm a wanderer Travelling at the speed of sound Wandering free It ain't no mystery Oh, I'm a wanderer Travelling at the speed of sound Wandering free Won't make no history

If you want to catch the wind Yeah, you've got to chase the tide Chase it hard, chase it fast No way you'll catch it unless you hide Ride swift, ride with speed Climb aboard your trusted steed Ride through darkness or light of day You've gotta chase it all the way Racing and riding to catch the wind Chasing and hounding the sea Race hard, ride free my friend You're running wild and free Spent my life chasing demons inside Won't catch them unless I'm wild and free You got your demons and I got mine A life's addiction by demon inside That's why I run, I look inside My demons head, what's in his mind Chase it hard, chase it wide Race it hard across the sky Unless I catch it, unless I see I'll never be wild and free Racing and riding to catch the wind Chasing and hounding the sea Race hard, ride free my friend You're running wild and free Spent my life chasing demons inside Won't catch them unless I'm wild and free I can feel it coming Racing through my veins Chase it hard, chase it fast I'm wild and free Racing and riding to catch the wind Chasing and hounding the sea Chase it hard, ride free my friend You're running wild and free

The pain cuts deep from losing you Far deeper than I could have known Time stood still, but I wanted to see Just how far would you go Now I'm praying for the rain To come and end my misery I'm lost and low, so Rainman, friend Wash me out to see, and on and on... Rainman, make the rain come down Wash my tears away Ease my heart of all this hurt Make it go away Yeah my life has lost direction now But I'm trying to get on by The rain don't rain is a hidden meaning Is it a blessing in disguise? So Rainman, where's the rain I want To end my misery? I'm lost and low, so Rainman, friend Wash me out to see, and on and on... Rainman, make the rain come down Wash my tears away Ease my heart of all this hurt Make it go away Rainman, take me down Drown me in your arms Take the pain from deep within My broken washed up hearts The rain came down The Rainman smiled Looked right down on me The don't go But the rain feels good Makes me feel so alive Just like the Rainman Just like the Rainman Make it rain

Resplendent in black with a gleam in his eye The real king is dead and we all wonder why He sits up on high Glen Corr and he's laughing away He has the charm of old Nick with his wit quick and sharp His legend still beats to the sound of the harp In all of our hearts he'll forever and ever remain No more, Glen Corr Now the favourite son of Emerald Will brighten it no more No more, Glen Corr Where the spirit of the vagabond Will burn for evermore Live life in the fast lane Live life to the full His suffering is ended It's now understood On a rock stage, in heaven above He is rocking away No more, Glen Corr Now the favourite son of Emerald Will brighten it no more No more, Glen Corr Where the spirit of the vagabond Will burn for evermore No don't believe a word They come to claim the emerald Just roll me over and I'll turn around Breakout No more, Glen Corr Now the favourite son of Emerald Will brighten it no more No more, Glen Corr Where the spirit of the vagabond Will burn for evermore

I scream from my soul into battle I ride A volcano about to explode I fight for my country, my family, my pride And I'll never give into my foes Into battle I will ride My head held high Never to give in The end is nigh To hell with the enemy, into the fires Of a soul that won't rest 'til he dies I'll fight while I stand and I'll rest when I die To Valhalla my lost soul will ride The battle begins and blood it does rain Like wine on our emerald green land Our mother land screaming, crying in pain For the souls of her warriors proud From the battle we did ride Out heads bowed down Battle scars forever On my troubled brow To hell with the enemy, into the fires Of a soul that won't rest 'til he dies I'll fight while I stand and I'll rest when I die To Valhalla my lost soul will ride

You carry the world on your shoulders You make me scream Eternally the martyr Your world is just a dream You make me scream The life you lead is a hard one to bear I don't understand Listen Got to refrain from my thoughts I'm only a man Feelings of guilt are what you arouse Paranoia is what I espouse When will you see all is not what it seems You make me scream When are you going to realise The world is not yours to pick and choose Living at your rate you ?? You know this time you lose Shine (Shine) Shine (Shine) All you want to do is shine (All you want to do is shine) Down on my head (Down on my head) Why do you act like a grand old duke? When you're up and I'm down Why when you ring I'm a puppet on a string? I am your clown Now is the time for me to lay myself bare The balance I need is no longer there Alone I conquer, divided I stand I will overcome you Shine (Shine) Shine (Shine) All you want to do is shine (All you want to do is shine) Down on my head (Down on my head) Don't you understand Alone I conquer, divided I stand And I will overcome you Shine (Shine) Shine (Shine) All you want to do is shine (All you want to do is shine) Down my head (Down on my head) Shine (Shine) Shine (Shine) All you want to do is shine (All you want to do is shine)

Open up the book of Kells; tell me what you see A heritage of Erin old, a Celtic legacy To tell of times forgotten, and of Ireland's favourite sons Of the good times and the bad times under God's beloved sun Of battles won and battles lost by our Celtic forefathers Of death and of destruction by Viking marauders Of how our country got her name, of Cuchulain of Ferdia Of Finn McCumhaill and Brian Boru, the O'Donnells and Hugh O'Neill Oh tell me more of Erin old, of the famine of black '47 Our loved ones lost 1916, how they'll be forgotten, never Look around our countryside, the fairest of them all In every hill and every field there's a story to be told But if you don't believe me, just look and you will see In this heaven called the Emerald Isle, the orange, white and green So listen to my stories old, and tell me what you see Just what I mean I mean by heritage And our Celtic Legacy Into the light come the soldiers of war Up to the battlefield proudly they walk Ready for anything, devil or man To fight for their liberty, thy will be done Centuries of fighting with no real result Celtic attacks up to bombing assaults Nobody wins everyone loses Good over evil what will you choose! Nobody laughs, everyone cries Nobody lives, everyone dies Out of the dark ages into the light Fighting for liberty night after night Willing sacrifice everything here Looking for peace for everyone dear Do what they got to do to save our land Everyone's got to lend a hand Tell me stories long and true Of how our land has grown up through The ages that have long gone, passed us by A nation we may never be, no peace, no love, no liberty Unrest in our country 'til I die Out of the ashes the spirit did rise From the embers of war he arose A spirit of freedom from heaven and earth To show us the light from above Life and love and liberty are well worth fighting for To make our country one again, to open up the door Well will our people stop fighting inside They start off as heroes, tomorrow they die And now that my story's nearly told Looking back at your folk and the old This legacy of love and hate will die In our hearts so full of passion as we cry

When I was young, I used to call your name You liked to take me on journeys Far, far away But now times have changed And I still call out to you But you don't answer no more Oh where did you go? Here I stay by the waterfront As the waves crash in from the sea Right in front of me I know all things must change Nothing stays the same But I still miss your company Here I'll stay, right by the waterfront I walk down to the shore My footprints imbedded in the strand I wait 'til day returns Still seeking your guiding hand And I wonder just what I have lost Down through the years Oh where did you go? I'm all alone So here I stay by the waterfront As the waves crash in from the sea Right in front of me I know all things must change Nothing stays the same But I still miss your company Here I'll stay, right by the waterfront
