01. Somtimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child - Fair Liberty's Call
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone / A long way from home
Oh, my brother / Oh, my brother / A long way from home
A really heartbreaking rendition of this song.
download
02. House of the Rising Sun - Brand New Sin
there is a house in New Orleans / they call the rising son /
it's been the ruin of many a poor boy / and God, I know I'm one
This is an incredibly gritty version of this (already gritty) song.
download
03. Wonderwall - Ryan Adams
and all the roads we have to walk / are winding / and all the lights that lead the way /
are blinding / there are many things that I would like to say to you /
but I don't know how / because maybe / you're gonna be the one who saves me?
This puts a new spin on the Oasis version of this song. Grab it if you haven't.
download
04. Renegade - Styx
oh mama, I'm in fear for my life / from the long arm of the law /
law man has put an end to my running / and I'm so far from my home
I don't know if this song was in the show or not, but if not it fits right in.
download
05. Louisiana, 1927 - Old School Freight Train
river has busted through clear down to Plaquemines /
six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline /
Louisiana, Louisiana / they're trying to wash us away /
they're trying to wash us away
download
06. Old Man - Neil Young
old man take a look at my life / I'm a lot like you /
I need someone to love me / the whole day through /
just one look in my eyes / you can tell that's true
download
07. Zak & Sara - Ben Folds
often Sara would have spells where she lost time /
she saw the future / she heard voices from inside /
the kind of voices she would soon learn to deny /
because at home it got her smacked
download
08. Black Water - The Doobie Brothers
oh, black water / keep on rolling /
mississippi moon won't you keep on shining on me?
Another song I'm sure either has been on the show, or needs to be!
download
09. What I Got - Sublime
light me up that cigarette / and I strap shoes on my feet /
got to find a reason / a reason things went wrong /
got to find a reason why my money's all gone
download
10. God's Gonna Cut You Down - Johnny Cash
go tell that long-tongued liar / go and tell that midnight rider /
tell the rambler / the gambler / the back biter /
tell them that god's gonna cut 'em down.
download
11. Black Betty - Ram Jam
whoa, black betty, bam-a-lam / whoa, black betty, bam-a-lam /
black betty had a child, bam-a-lam / the damn thing gone wild, bam-a-lam
Again. This song should be in the show.
download
12. Jubilee - Alison Krauss
the time has come to travel on / I made my way alone /
my soul will mend at journey's end / this road will take me home /
swing and turn / jubilee / live and learn /jubilee
Alison Krauss will make you cry. Sweet song from the Paperclips soundtrack.
download
13. Motherless Child - Mark Tolstrup
sometimes I feel / like a motherless child /
sometimes I feel / like I'm almost gone /
a long, long, long, way from my home
A totally different version from the one above. Gritty and southern and beautiful.
download
14. Seven Nation Army - The White Stripes
and I'm bleeding and I'm bleeding and I'm bleeding / right before the law /
all the words are gonna bleed from me / and I will think no more /
and the stains coming from my blood / tell me 'go back home!'
download
15. Jolene - Ray LaMontagne
I found myself face down in a ditch / booze in my hair / blood on my lips /
a picture of you holding a picture of me / in the pocket of my blue jeans /
still don't know what love means / Jolene
