Yellow roses The old spinning wheel Lonesome guitar man Giant For the sake of days gone by Bill bailey Anytime The old rugged cross There’s a star spangled banner waving somewhere Everyone knew but me Tattletale blues Rudolph the red nosed reindeer I went to your wedding A melody from the sky Please have mercy Keep a light in your window Softly and tenderly Enter and rest and pray The hand that swept the stars The world is waiting for sunrise Twilight time in tennessee Pride Forever more Thanks Is this a dream When love goes wrong James dean Roll along kentucky moon Milkman keep those bottles quiet Cattle call Texas tornado Take my hand precious lord When he grows tired of you I love you Steal a penny from a beggar Pot of gold I don’t want to be free For the good times Jim johnny and jonas In a little house on the hill When it´s round up time in texas This orchid means goodbye In the hills of wyoming Milk cow blues Signed sealed and delivered Did you write a letter to your sweetheart Happy cowboy Weary old hills Another fool steps in Me and my shadow I’ll never slip around again The last round up Bandera waltz A tiny little voice in a tiny little prayer Lonely is the hunter Yodeling ranger Horsehair boogie By the waters of the minnetonka Just because Sleep kentucky baby Hillbilly town Easy to please Sweethearts or strangers Rainbow valley Stay away from my door My old home town The trail is way too long Empty saddles Tenderly Farewell blues Caravan Little old rag doll Lover Too ra loo ro loo rah Blue skies My campire lullaby Singing the blues Nobody cares I hang my head and cry
