Most of these songs from the 1920s and 1930s have long instrumental passages,
often a full verse at the beginning of a song and after each chorus
A
A distant land to roam Amber tresses tied in blue
Anchored in love Answer to weeping willow
Are you lonesome tonight Are you tired of me, my darling
Away out on the Old Saint Sabbath
B
Bear Creek Blues Beautiful brown eyes
Beautiful home Beautiful isle o'er the sea
Behind those stone walls Blackie's gunman
Black Jack David Bring back my blue-eyed boy
Bring back my boy Buddies in the saddle
Bury me under the weeping
willow tree
By the touch of her hand
C
Cannonball blues Can't feel at home
Can the circle be unbroken Carter's blues
Charlie and Nellie Chewing gum
Coalminer's blues Cowboy Jack
Cowboys wild song to his herd Crying holy unto the Lord
Cyclone of Raye Cove
D
Dark and stormy weather Dark haired true lover
Darling daisies Darling little Joe
Darling Nellie across the sea Diamonds in the rough
Don't forget me, little darling Don't forget this song
E
East Virginia blues # 2 East Virginia blues
Engine 143 Evening bells are ringing
F
Faded coat of blue Faded flowers
Fifty miles of elbow room Foggy mountain top
Fond affection Forsaken love
Funny when you feel that way
G
Gathering flowers from the hillside Give me your love
and I'll give you mine
Girl on the Greenbriar shore Give me the roses while I live
Glory to the lamb God gave Noah the rainbow sign
Goldwatch and chain Goodbye to the plains
Grave on the green hill side
H
Happiest day of all Happy in prison
Happy or lonesome Heaven's radio
Hello Central give me heaven Hello Stranger
He never came back He took a white rose from her hair
Hold fast to the right Home by the sea
Home in Tennessee Honey in the rock
I
I ain't going to work tomorrow I cannot be your sweetheart
I have no loving mother now I have no one to love me
I'll be all smiles tonight I'll be home some day
I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes I'm working on a building
I never will marry In the shadow of Clinch Mountain
In the valley of the Shenandoah I wonder how the
old folks are at home
J
Jimmy Brown the newsboy John Hardy was a desperate
little man
K
Keep on the firing line Keep on the sunny side
Kissing is a crime Kitty waltz
L
Leaning on the everlasting arms Let the church roll on
Little girl that played
upon my knee
Little log cabin by the sea
Little log hut in the lane Little Moses
Lonesome valley Longing for old Virginia
Lover's farewell Lulu Walls
M
Maple on the hill Meeting in the air
Motherless children My heart's tonight in Texas
My Clinch Mountain home My Dixie darling
N
Never let the devil
get the upper hand of you
No depression in heaven
No more the moon shines
on Lorena
No others bride I'll be
No telephone in heaven
O
Old gospel ship One little word
On the rock where Moses stood On the Sea of Galilee
Over the garden wall
P
Poor little orphaned boy Prisoner's song
R
River of Jordan
S
Single girl, married girl Sinking in the lonesome sea
Sow 'em on the mountain St Regis girl
Sweet fern
T
The birds were singing of you The church in the wildwood
The mountains of Tennessee The poor orphan child
The spirit of love
watches over me
The storms are on the ocean
The wandering boy The western hobo
The winding stream This is like heaven to me
Two sweethearts
W
Wabash Cannonball Walking in the King's Higway
Weary prodigal son We shall rise
We will march through the streets
of the city
When I'm gone
When silver threads
are gold again
When the roses
bloom in Dixieland
When the roses come again When the springtime
comes again
When this evening sun
goes down
When the world's on fire
Where shall I be Where the silvery
Colorado wends its way
Where we'll never grow old Who's that knocking
at my window
Why do you cry little darling Why there's a tear in my eye
Wildwood flower Will the roses bloom in heaven
Will my mother know me there Will you miss me when I'm gone
Worried man blues
Y
You are my flower You better let that liar alone
You denied your love Young Freda Bolt
You're gonna be sorry
you let me down
You're nothing more to me
Your mother still prays
for you, Jack
You tied a love knot in my heart
You've been a friend to me You've been fooling me, baby
You've got to righten that wrong
