The giant song list
Monday April 19, 2004 – 1:55 amHoly crap! Here’s my list of tunes I’m giving the Hoyle Brothers, for the purposes of comparison to their own knowledge-base of songs. It’s drawn from every old setlist I could find from the Holler Sisters, Roadhouse Romeos and Marfa Lights, plus whatever else I’ve demo’ed or covered live on my own, or just played around the house. I haven’t done any of these in awhile so there’s no tellin’ how much of it I can still reliably remember! But a lot of ‘em I know I can do no problem.

Ha ha… I’d hate to see YOUR list! I bet in a pinch you could play all these and fifty billion others too. But, I could add a few more to mine if I included the old jazz and pop stuff, this is just the country-ish stuff.

Edith, A little widow lady asked me if I knew the lyrics to three songs from her childhood. I was able to sing two of them for her and give her the lyrics to take home but she stumped me with "Put Away My Little Shoes". Is there any way you could send me the lyrics for me to share with her? It would be a thrill.
I love your sound, God bless you, Sharon

You should pick up Freakwater’s first album, called Feels Like the Third Time. They do a good cover!
