Gone on the other hand
The Gypsy Lady and the wanderin' Hobo
The farmers daughter
Where the river Shannon flows
That silver haired daddy of mine
What country is
If we never meet again this side of Heaven
Cottage in the country
Rosie
Flowers wont grow in gardens of stone
Riverman
I think of home
The man behind the gun
She's just an old love turnedmemory
I'm just lucky I guess
I'd rather love and lose you
Cottage in the country
