She's probably read or will read your posts..she's on this list anyway and I am inclined to think that she wants the lyrics that are posted on the site to be accurate. Jon Yahoo!

But I'm going to see Patty for the first time in a few weeks, at the Birchmere in Alexandria, VA. This is a place where, traditionally, artists will come out to the bar room outside the hall after the show and sign a few autographs. I just got a poster of 1,000 Kisses, and am going to bring it along just in case -- my basement stereo/guitar/pool/play room has a few framed signed music posters, I'm looking forward to adding this one. Does she typically do stuff like this? Or is she tough to catch after a show? Thanks. Ed. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 3 Jan 2003 11:21:36 -0500 From: Stephen Golato Subject: MM: name of song w/Emmy Lou Harris Does anyone know what the name of the song is that Patty sings with Emmy Lou Harris? They sing " Away beyond the blue. One star belongs to you." Where is this song from? Also, I love the songs "Shells" and "Night". I only wish I had a better quality recording of the song. There's a lot of hiss and crowd noise. But they are such beautiful songs once you get pass the other noises. I assume the recordings I have are from several years ago. I don't know when she was performing these songs. Wish she would record these songs? They need to be heard. Steve "Don't just exist.

You should check out "Sand and Water" too. A whole CD of sad but beautiful songs written after her husband died of cancer. She is an artist. sort of like Patty, who has a rabid following and is loved by many famous singers (Bonnie Raitt, Mary Chapin Carpenter, and a host of others), but who has not received widespread recognition. > From: ShmephSasso@aol.com > Date: Fri, 3 Jan 2003 11:39:35 EST > To: stephen.golato@sanchez.com, mad-mission@smoe.org > Subject: Re: MM: name of song w/Emmy Lou Harris > > I know the name of the song is "Away Beyond the Blue."

The Respond Project is releasing a two-CD compilation to benefit families affected by domestic violence. Patty's "Chief" is included, along with a slew of other great artists (my latest fave, Neko Case, sings the wistful "I Wish I Was the Moon").

Thanks for the heads-up on that one Nan. www.respondproject.org/respond.html Secondly, my friend was downloading some Patty songs online the other day and some of them were listed as being on CDs called "Love From My Lips" (discs 1&2). I had never heard of this so I thought I'd toss the question out to all of you. Have you heard of these CDs? If so, what are the track listings? And most importantly, how do I get my hands on them? :o) Thanks! - -D nblomgren wrote:I've been away from the list during the holidays -- my apologies if this has been posted already.

Aw heck, Ed! It was nice to put my teaching and musical, uh, skills together. This housewife gig I've got going doesn't require much guitar playing, let alone teaching. Well, not a lot of guitar teaching anyway. You definitely made my day. I love it when the light bulb goes on over someone's head and I've had a little part in it.

Charl Kroeger sent me this compilation of the Silver Bell lyrics. The lyrics for "Boston" look correct. There were words and phrases that Charl was not completely confident about and in the email he sent me, he highlighted them in red. Since that won't work here, either he or I will need to go back and indicate which ones are unclear. But I thought I would send this now and work on that later. Thanks to Charl. This makes me feel better!!! Little God Good morning little god I see you9ve come for me again With the news between your teeth You are not my friend Pouring little cups of tea Humming a little tune You sit across from me And fill my little room Little god Smoke is in the air From your little cigarette You tell me to throw the fight Go and place your little bet Shake, little god- Shake your little fists All the strippers think you9re odd But you leave the biggest tips Little god Where oh where did I leave myself today On the bed, on the chair Did I send myself away On a sleepy afternoon Will I be returning soon Laugh your little laugh Stomp your little feet They talk behind your back, All the people that you meet They say time is running out And you don9t know what to do And I hear them talk about Another place to live but not with you Little god, little god Little god, little god Little god Boston I went back to Boston Back to the city you9re lost in I went back to the place That etched your face in the stone Walked around Harvard Square The runaway kids are still hanging out there And I took the red line all the way Across the River Charles Some things try and try And they never fly And they never fly You reach up from the waves And find that you9re only waving goodbye Went walking in Boston Over a bridge I used to walk on I was looking for my heart That I9d flung into that sea of stone, stone Boston said you need not apply For your license to fly Hey young lady don9t be so surprised You know you9re not alone Some things try and try And they never fly And they never fly You reach up from the waves And find that you9re only waving goodbye It was Memorial Day I went to where you lay There were thousands of people Just like you in a chain graveyard You came all that way Looking for the sky And got a slap in the face You had a desperate need to be loved You just got put in that place You better know your place, boy Some things try and try And they never fly And they never fly And reach up from the waves You9ll find that you9re only waving goodbye Only waving You9re only waving You9re only waving You9re only waving Goodbye Perfect White Girls He9d climbed the snowy white mountain Slid down a snowy white hill Drank from a water fountain Water was sweet and chill Sunshine on a shiny ocean Sunshine on a shiny bay I opened the tiny shutter and Sunshine blew me away Don9t know a thing Don9t know a thing Don9t know a thing about Perfect white girls, who wear gold I9m very busy I9m very, very busy baby Very, very busy becoming invisible Why would you want to Why would you want to disappear What good is a woman Is any woman who9s sitting here They don9t know a thing Don9t know a thing Don9t know a thing about perfect white girls la la la la la la la... So here I come down the river of my hips Here come in my big red lips Hear me now my new-found friend Because I9m never going back again Don9t know a thing Don9t know a thing Don9t know a thing about perfect white girls la la la la la la la... Truth #2 You don9t like the sound of the truth Coming from my mouth You say that I lack the proof Baby that might be so I might get to the end of my life Find out everyone was lying I don9t think that I9m afraid anymore I say that I would rather die trying Oh swing me way down south Sing me something brave from your mouth And I9ll bring you pearls of water on my hips And the love in my lips All the love in my lips This time when you swung the bat And I found myself laying flat I wondered What a way to spend a dime What a way to use the time Ain't it baby? And I looked at my reflection In the window walking past And I saw a stranger I9m just so scared all the time Makes me one more reason why The world is dangerous Oh swing me way down south Sing me something brave from your mouth And I9ll bring you pearls of water on my hips And the love in my lips All the love in my lips You don9t like the sound of the truth Coming from my mouth You say that I lack the proof Baby that might be so Tell me what9s wrong with having a little faith Put your feelin' in your heart Why must we be so afraid And always so far apart What You Are All the ladies on the lake they start to dance Its been a long time don't you wish you had the chance What do you wish you were? Do you wish you were the silence on the moon? Nobody knows, but maybe you will be soon I used to think the sidewalk was the way Always waiting for my lucky day Over and over every patch of gray One day inside me I was lucky anyway What do you wish you were? Do you wish you were the light of every star? Nobody knows, but maybe that's just what you are All night count all the singing stars Alright is where you want to know you are What do you wish you were? Do you wish you were the light of every star?

took all her favorite things down from the window and broke OEem all over her clean floor It9s Saturday at the mansion The oldest boy walks with a slouch The young ones are wild in back of the house and she gave up and went back to sleep on the couch Something as simple as boys and girls gets tossed all around and lost in the world Something as hard as a prayer on your back can wait a long time for an answer When I was little I9d stare at her picture and talk to the mother of God I swear sometimes I9d see her lips move like she was trying to say something to me When I was eighteen I moved to Florida, like everyone sick of the cold does, and I waited on old people waiting to die I waited on them until I was Something as simple as boys and girls gets tossed all around and lost in the world Something as hard as a prayer on your back can wait a long time for an answer So I9m wearing my footsteps into this floor One day I won9t live here anymore Someone will wonder who lived here before and went on their way I live too many miles from the ocean and I9m getting older and odd I get up every morning with my cup of coffee and I talk to the mother of God Something as simple as boys and girls gets tossed all around and lost in the world Something as hard as a prayer on your back can wait a long time for an answer One More Girl I took off my iron smile Because I found it weighed me down Tomorrow when the world wakes up I9ll be in another town You don9t know what you want But at this moment it could be me You move your hand across my knee Turn me into some novelty Guess I9m one more girl on the stage Just one more ass that got stuffed in some jeans And it9s one more day that you don9t find true love Because you don9t know what it means Did you ever take the time to Think about who I might be Where I9ve been What I9m thinking Who I love What I see I9m one more car out on the road that You might pass on your way home Someone9s sister, someone9s wife or Just some bitch who9s probably Got no life... yes I9m One more girl on the stage Just one more ass that got stuffed in some jeans Just one more day that you don9t find true love Because you don9t know what it means One day we9ll be a pile of ashes For the rest of time, it passes So take your hand off my knee Do you know what it means to be One more girl on the stage Just one more ass that got stuffed in some jeans Just one more day that you don9t find true love Because you don9t know what it means Standing I9m standing in the shadow of the hill I9m standing in the shadow of the hill I feel the fear everywhere Hope it don9t get me killed I9m standing in the shadow of the hill I9m standing in the shadow walking blind I9ve been unfair and unkind I9ve turned away from your suffering far too many times Now I9m standing in the shadow walking blind Sister, brother, there9s a fire on the hill And it9s burning like a lantern Making all this time stand still I9m standing, I9m standing, I9m standing I9m standing, standing, standing Mother, I am weak but I am strong Standing in the darkness this long But in the deepest darkness I listen to your song Mother I am weak but I am strong I9m standing, and I9m standing, I9m standing I9m standing, standing, standing, I9m standing Standing in the shadow of the hill ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V7 #2
