1. Garden of the Goddess
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright Patti Jo Edwards 2014
It was an honor to be chosen to be the best out of the 100s that passed over the stage at the Freight and Salvage, a folk club located in Berkeley, California. My partner at the time was Linda Tringali. I played the spoons and she played the ladles and we harmonized. In this segment I performed "Garden of the Goddess" from my first solo album: River.

In the Garden of the Goddess where all wisdom grows
Kathleen walks and gathers jewels to mix with incense cloves;
The fairies whisper to her as she goes along her way;
The Garden of the Goddess is where Kathleen likes to play.
She says, “Come follow with me, as I light a sacred fire;
Close your eyes and listen to the forest choir;"
Isn’t it all so wonderful to watch the breezes play
In the Garden of the Goddess” where Kathleen likes to stay.
The sun lights up the dew drops that decorate the webs;
She tries not to disturb them on their silver threads;
She’ll honor the earth’s Mother light with a light that’s all her own
In the Garden of the Goddess where she never feels alone.
In the Garden of the Goddess where all wisdom grows
Kathleen walks and gathers jewels to mix with incense cloves;
The fairies whisper to her as she goes along her way
In the Garden of the Goddess where Kathleen dreams and plays.

2. HOT COFFEE
words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Patti Jo Edwards copyright 2013
I love coffee - ground fresh and brewed strong. We coffee drinkers can get to where we don't drink any water that is not coffee. We all like ours different and are passionate about having that special blend, or roast, made a certain way, often by a certain barista in a specific coffee store. It really is amazing. One friend of mine is even more addicted than I am, but I understand where he is coming from. This song was inspired by my coffee loving friend.
Well, they serve it kind of black and you like it just like that - HOT COFFEE
You like the way they do it, so strong that you can chew it - HOT COFFEE
Hold out your cup and have some more
If you run out you'll have to go to the store for - HOT COFFEE
If you want a latte just add a little white and steam it - HOT COFFEE
The black will turn to tan - it's a work of art so plan to have - HOT COFFEE
A place to share with your friends, Hours go by - it never ends
Until they kick you out and you take it to go
But you'll be back for mo' - HOT COFFEE
Shoob - i -da - dee-dee wo wo
Shoob - i -da - dee-dee wo HOT COFFEE - HOT COFFEE
Shoob - i -da - dee-dee wo wo
Shoob - i -da - dee-dee wo HOT COFFEE - HOT COFFEE
Shoob - i -da - dee-dee wo wo
Shoob - i -da - dee-dee wo HOT COFFEE - HOT COFFEE
Well, it doesn't keep you awake - HOT COFFEE
Drink it all day until the night is late - HOT COFFEE
Even your houseplants love the grounds
All the extra goes in the garden on the ground - That's coffee - grounds
Only food that goes with coffee goes in your house - HOT COFFEE
You're really not addicted just cause you only drink - HOT COFFEE
Water that's not black is just absurd
Wanna know what I want - here's two words - HOT COFFEE
HOT COFFEE - HOT COFFEE - Hot and black. Steamin'!

3. I Choose to Stand
(2nd American Revolution)
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Patti Jo Edwards copyright 2013
The video on Youtube
I first became aware that my lifetime of patriotic programming was not based on fact when I lost in court against my brother who sued me, lied and, even though I had ample proof on paper that he was lying, he won. Actually, I won, but in a judgement written by his attorney and signed by the judge based on a technicality taken out of context that I was not allowed to challenge, I was forced to pay all of the legal fees. My brother only received a little over $10,000 more than he would have gotten. I had to write his attorney a separate check for $85,000. We were forced to sell the house we were moving in at a loss and I had to pay my own attorney as well. The whole mess cost nearly $150,000 and destroyed our family. It was bad enough to get sued by my greedy rotten brother, but being failed by the justice system that is supposed to protect you, as long as you follow the laws and live honestly, was devastating.
The next huge eye-opener was learning about GMOs and the destruction of our food, our land and our water. When I learned about the Occupy movement, I felt hope, that I wasn't alone in my concern. I chose to stand and became an activist. This song was written in support of that movement.
It's better to stand up and shout than lie down and whimper
With the heal of the 1% trying to hold you down
I can't just stand here and do nothing,
So, I'll join the 99% downtown.
Stand with the many on the courthouse steps
Wishing the law wasn't broken - Hoping we can fix it.
But I don't know - I just hope so
I know that I must stand so brothers here I am
It's better to stand up and shout than lie down and whimper
With the heal of the 1% trying to hold you down
I can't just stand here and do nothing,
So, I'll join the 99% downtown.
I'm really not a fighter - I'm a lover of this country
Not of the government, but a lover of the land
There's so much that's broken - I'm not sure how to fix it
But I do have faith and that is why I stand
It's better to stand up and shout than lie down and whimper
With the heal of the 1% trying to hold you down
I can't just stand here and do nothing,
So I'll join the 99% downtown.
I stand for freedom - I stand for justice
I stand for honesty, integrity and all that we hold dear
I pray for the future - for our children
It's for the future that I stand
It's better to stand up and shout than lie down and whimper
With the heal of the 1% trying to hold you down
I can't just stand here and do nothing,
So I'll join the 99% downtown.
I'm choosing to stand up and shout
Not lie down and whimper
This is my choice.
I choose to stand.

4. I'll be the Change in the World
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards written in 2011 copyright 2013
The video on Youtube
I know that I cannot do much on a global scale, but I can do what I may in my own community. This song is about that reality, that if we each as individuals do what we are able to do - the acts that we have enthusiasm for, no matter how seemingly small and insignificant - we are moving toward the goal. I walk my talk and sing my songs to all who may listen. This is what I can do and it feels good to act with integrity toward what is good and positive.
I'll be the change in the world I need to be for you and for me
And all creation will smile in bountiful glee at the changes in me
I have found pockets of fear I've kept by my side, things that I hide
It's time to let go, let happiness flow, let go of the bad, change happy for sad
And be the change in the world I need to be for you and for me
And all creation will smile in bountiful glee at the changes in me
I've built a bridge between you and me for my humanity
In a world meant to share, I proclaim that I care and choose to give, live and be
The change in the world I need to be for you and for me
And all creation will smile in bountiful glee at the changes in me
I'm planting the seed to grow joyful deeds inspired by Love
Love created through me will soon come to be and I now can see
I can be the change in the world I need to be for you and for me
And all creation will smile in bountiful glee at the changes in me
A change in my mind has happened in time to save my life
Come on join hands, together we'll stand for what's good and right together
We'll be the change in the world we need to be for you and for me
And all creation will smile in bountiful glee at the changes in me
Let's be the change in the world we need to be for you and for me
Together we'll save our world, the Creator will smile
Bountiful glee - Smiling at me
Together with you and me - A change in the world.

5. Fracking, GMO, GeoEngineering
Words and Music by Patti Jo Edwards copyright 2013
Performed by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
The Video on Youtube
This song seeks to bring together the factions who march and protest and petitiion - to introduce the thought that the same individuals and corporations that are behind fracking (destroying our water) are in partnership with those who are working to take over our food (GMOs) and GeoEngineering which is an all out assault on the planet. How do we stop them? I have no idea, but let's put blame where it belongs. Shame on them.
Look up in the sky, patterned lines milky white
Barium, strontium, aluminum oxide
Alzheimer's, autism, asthma falling the sky
Watch and See - think about it, realize
Look up look out and share
Risk because you dare to care
You dare to care.
You dare to care.
Fracking GMO GeoEngineering
The people sit in disbelief of all that they are hearing
Look up, look out and share
Risk because you dare to care
You dare to care.
You dare to care.
Trees, bees, animals, everyone - Needs clean water, needs the sun
Idiots are causing problems, fear, disease and draught
Everyone must learn about
Fracking GMO GeoEngineering
The people sit in disbelief of all that they are hearing
Look up look out and share
Risk because you dare to care.
You dare to care.
You dare to care.
All because I want organic I'm elite and rude
They are messing with the weather, messing with the food
Messing with the planet, messing with our minds
Just say, "No" "No more" "Not this time!"
Fracking GMO GeoEngineering
They try to control the things that we are hearing
Look up look out and share
Risk because you dare to care.
You dare to care.
You dare to care.
Fracking GMO GeoEngineering
They try to control the things that we are hearing
Look up, look out and share
Risk because you dare to care.
You dare to care.
You dare to care.
Look up look out and share the word
Until everyone knows everything and everything is heard
Post till Facebook bans you then start on Google+
Whisper with great passion, they are killing us
Look up look out and share
Risk because you dare to care.
You dare to care.
You dare to care.

6. Power and Pride: the Drones
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards copyright 2013
The USA is not the only country with drones. The reality that our President Obama has a "Kill list" is appalling. He is not the first president to draw a line in the sand. We petition and march, but I no longer believe it matters what we do. Our country is no longer a country of the people. This song is one of my favorites. It is powerful as are my feelings of outrage against those who pretend that we can afford millions of dollars for lethal toys to destroy our good will around the world. It is very likely that one day one of our own drones will be dropping hell-fire missiles here. It will be fair if they target the golf coarse where Obama is teeing off.
The line is drawn, the die is cast
This isn't the first war, but it may be the last
Shouldn't it take a vote to decide to kill us all for power and pride.
The president drew a line in the sand
The drones crossed the sky and scorched the land
Children cried in spite of the plan
They are just like us
Now we must stand
A glowing white light could shoot across our sky
All we love could die
Torture and prison and all denied by a madman for power and pride
He says it's for me, but I said "No!"
Boots on the ground and more and more drones
Blood and sand and broken bones
Broken hearts - sad lost soils.
A glowing white light from across the sky
To humble a leader sick with pride
Who seeks to concur when we want peace
We shout and march, demand it cease
All we hold dear and all we call home
may be blown to hell by a single drone
That is not ours but made by us
I kneel and pray and swear and cuss
This must stop today while it still can
Save us from this insane plan,
The winds of peace can blow the sand
and erase the president's line
Before a drone lights up my sky
If we do survive
Do you want to survive?
Do you want to survive with so little else alive?

7. Rudy and the Revolution
Words and music by Patti Jo Edwards copyright 2013
Rudy is a colorful artistic delight who lives in the hills near Grants Pass, Oregon. I had the joy of performing at a festival he held on his land and enjoyed listening to his views and dreams. This song is for Rudy.
Rudy and the revolution, creating a way to future-thrive
Rudy and the revolution, "We will live, not just survive,"
The evolution of revolution carries us away
Workin' it out together, creating our future today.
The evolution of revolution began with a thought that's time has come
I am listening with my heart and doing what needs to be done
Today a wise man said to me, "We can build it and be free,"
I am there - so there
Rudy and the revolution, creating a way to future-thrive
Rudy and the revolution, "We will live, not just survive,"
The evolution of revolution carries us away
Workin' it out together, creating our future today.
It won't be guns or drones or bombs - No poison or corrosive lies
We'll fight with living well, love and growing ways to thrive
And as they all die away destroying their lives
Rudy's dream of prosperity will no longer have to hide
Rudy and the revolution, creating a way to future-thrive
Rudy and the revolution, "We will live, not just survive,"
The evolution of revolution carries us away
Workin' it out together, creating our future today.

8. One Mind
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Patti Jo Edwards copyright 2013
If everyone who wants peace, health and love to rule the world would join together in a shared focus, than very quickly this would be realized. In every organization, where there are two minds, there is arguing over the best way to go forward and what should be the foremost priority and soon there is war. It just seems to be the way of things.
The peace from me greets the peace from you
Joins the parts of peace from the world
And starts to swirl in a river of peace
That does increase and the current grows
We know that One mind can heal the world
One mind - I am of one mind
To change the kind of non-sense that's leading the blind
Get to work and heal the world
One mind - I am of the One mind
That makes peace the way of the world
End the hurtful non-sense and heal the world
The hurt enjoyed by those who kill will end as we say, "No more."
The river of peace will wash the world,
Empower the lovers of life, and so much more with
One mind - I am of one mind
To change the kind of non-sense that's been leading the blind
Get to work and heal the world
One mind - I am of the One mind
That makes peace the way of the world
End the hurtful non-sense and heal the world
Do you share this thought of the One mind
Peace will be the way
The peace in me and the peace from you will shine in the new day
Together our truth will shine in kind and peace will be, it's destiny
BELIEVE IT!
One mind - I am of one mind
To change the kind of non-sense that's leading the blind
Get to work and heal the world
One mind - I am of the One mind
That makes peace the way of the world
End the hurtful non-sense and heal the world

The peace from me greets the peace from you
Joins the parts of peace from the world
And starts to swirl in a river of peace
That does increase and the current grows
We know that One mind can heal the world
One mind - I am of one mind
To change the kind of non-sense that's leading the blind
Get to work and heal the world
One mind - I am of the One mind
That makes peace the way of the world
End the hurtful non-sense and heal the world
The hurt enjoyed by those who kill will end as we say, "No more."
The river of peace will wash the world,
Empower the lovers of life, and so much more with
One mind - I am of one mind
To change the kind of non-sense that's been leading the blind
Get to work and heal the world
One mind - I am of the One mind
That makes peace the way of the world
End the hurtful non-sense and heal the world
Do you share this thought of the One mind
Peace will be the way
The peace in me and the peace from you will shine in the new day
Together our truth will shine in kind and peace will be, it's destiny
BELIEVE IT!
One mind - I am of one mind
To change the kind of non-sense that's leading the blind
Get to work and heal the world
One mind - I am of the One mind
That makes peace the way of the world
End the hurtful non-sense and heal the world
9. 5th Dimensional Warrior Solution
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards

One day - it was a Sunday - I was invited to go to the service at the Circle of the Radiant Heart. Part of the service was to make suggestions on what one could do to improve the world. I don't remember what my suggestion was, but I do clearly remember the vehement attack I sustained from a tie-died man sitting about four people to my right. He said, we all could make chemtrails disappear by being in the 5th dimension and being love.
This song is for him and all of the others who are doing nothing to address the concerns of our world except sitting cross legged and listening to angel fru-fru music. My request to them is that if that is all that is required to cure the ills of this world, please, get busy.
You say you're in the 5th Dimension
That you are a work of love
That you can dissolve chem-trails with your mind
You say with the power of your love
You can heal the earth and all man kind
Well, get up, get off, get on, get going ' - It's time
Gather your thoughts and focus
on the source of all the bad
Zero in heal the evil and the sad
Stand in a circle of power and will
Dissolve the source of all the ill with love
Get up, get off, get on, get going ' - Love!
Your intention in that dimension must use active love
To manifest peace - the vision-symbol of the dove - pure white dove
Peace of mind, peace of heart, prosperous abundance starts with
Your kind heart - then you start to
Get up, get off, get on, get going - Get up, get off, get on, get going
Get up, get off, get on, get going - Get up, get off, get on, get going
We're too smart
To fall for the lie that it's too late
Believe that it takes too long
To follow leaders who are just wrong
So gather your thoughts - focus and cure
Bring about living - good and pure to cure you must
Get up, get off, get on, get going - Get up, get off, get on, get going
Get up, get off, get on, get going - Get up, get off, get on, get going
Get up, get off, get on, get going - Now!

10. Universal Beat of a Loving Heart
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Patti Jo Edwards copyright 2013
I feel it move me to my soul
The universal beat of a loving heart
Makes me move as it takes hold
The universal beat of a loving heart
I am dancing with all that lives
My own sweet song I am blessed to give
The universal beat of a loving heart
In the center of my beating heart
there dwells the divine creative spark
That is love and lights the dark I add my part
to the universal beat of a loving heart
I feel it move me to my soul
The universal beat of a loving heart
Makes me move as it takes hold
The universal beat of a loving heart
I am dancing with all that lives
My own sweet song I am blessed to give
The universal beat of a loving heart
We join hands - in a circle of all that lives
We begin the movement of the dance to you my hand I give

The universal beat of a loving heart
Makes me move as it takes hold

12. His Sweet Sue
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards
He headed out to the Boot Scoot Bar
Just around the block - didn't go very far
When right there at the bar in a pretty blue blouse
Was the woman he would marry and share his house
He sat down next to her - she said her name is Sue
He said, "Well hey there Sue; how are you?"
She said, "I'm fine; have we met before?"
He said, "In my dreams." Forever more ...
He'll dance with Sue, She's his very best friend
They like the same music and movies with happy endings
He smiles when he sees her - She's smilin' too
There's nothin' in his life that's better than Sue
With Sue there is no guessin' - There's no mind-messin'
She's always sweet and lovin' and turtle dovin'
She can cook up a picnic for two to share
With lovin' for dessert - They're quite a pair
The best thing he did was find him a Sue
If it's the last thing he ever does do
He'll grab her and kiss her and make her his own
Sue in his house makes it a home.
With Sue there's no guessin' - There's no mind-messin'
She's always sweet and lovin' and turtle dovin'
She can cook up a picnic for two to share
With lovin' for dessert - They're quite a pair
The best thing he ever did was find him a Sue
Everyday the last thing he'll ever do
Is hug her and kiss her - make her glad she's his own
Sue in his house makes it a home.

13. I’m Gonna get my Gun
Words & Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards

Video on Youtube
Well, I'm not defective and I am free - A liberty lovin' lady
So, watch it Honey, I'm gonna get my gun.
I noticed lately things just ain't right
I practice daily and nearly every night
Hold on Baby, I'm gonna get my gun.
I load it up and pack it on to my side
Got to be ready - my gun don't mind
Oh, they might hurt, those bad guys - if they come
I'm gonna get my gun.
Well the Foundin' Fathers knew what is right
Wrote it up and then they fought the fight
It's all in the Constitution - I'm gonna get my gun.
I may be short and blond – that’s alright
I’ve got an equalizer by my side
I’m not afraid to go out at night
I’ll just get my gun
The Foundin' Fathers knew what is right
They wrote it up and fought the fight
It's all in the Constitution - I'll just get my gun.
I'm a liberty lovin' lady - That's a fact
Proud to be an American, I'll be right back
Honey, I'm gonna get my gun.
Ah, this is fun.
I'm a pistol packin' mama
I'm gonna get my gun.

14. Walkin’ My Honey
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Patti Jo Edwards copyright 2012
Well you know I love my Honey, Yeah I love him so fine
He's the greatest lover and friend - the best kind.
We love to go out walkin' on a Saturday night
His hand in mine is just about everything right
And when we get back home to our castle of bliss
Oh my! Hey howdy! I’m glad that I’m his.
The moon is up the stars are shinin' bright
Everything's shut down for the night
We stop on the corner in the glow of the light
He kisses me and I kiss him back - ooo delight
Cruisin' on Main Street - hand in hand
I’m glad I’m his woman - He is definitely my man
We look in the windows talk about our lives
Our favorite thing of all - bet your life
We like it when they cross the street - sounds absurd
But I’m the perfect height to kiss when I stand on the curb
It's time to go home when we get to the truck
He opens up the door and helps me climb up
I smile a flirty smile at him as he closes the door
He feels like a million - one thing's for sure
Takin' a walk with my Honey is second best
To goin’ home to our little love nest
Next Saturday night, we'll do the town
Take a walk on Main Street when on one is around
He'll kiss me on the curb - It is so right
Put me in the truck, take me home for the night
Later when I’m in his arms fast asleep
I'll have the very best dream to dream
Of walkin' with my honey arm and arm
Perfectly in step - feelin' the charm
I am the sweet woman - He calls his own
He’ll put me in the truck and take me home.

Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Patti Jo Edwards copyright 2012
Magic seed dancing on the river
Lazing through the forest, careless as it goes
Following its path
Quenching those who thirst
Singing the Earth Mother's song
The forest sings its sounds of wind and of water
Birds sing along with insects and with frogs
The splash of fish that jump and leaves that hang from branches
A symphony - The Earth Mother's song
The Earth Mother's song
The Earth Mother's song
Magic seed dancing on the river
Lazing through the forest, careless as it goes
Following its path
Quenching those who thirst
Singing the Earth Mother's song

Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards
Abigail Grace’s shining face
Fills my heart with Grandma Love
A baby girl – rocks my world
And I find I am one big smile
A life-size likeness photograph
Makes me laugh and lights the room
A happy tune and I find I am one big smile
A brand new sun on a brand new day
A skip and hop and she’s on her way
And now the world is brighter with this one baby girl
My smile muscles are workin’ it out – I’m in a whirl.
Two loving hearts came together to make three
A family grows - they welcomed me
I am part of a great heart delighted by the shining face
Of Abigail Grace and I am one big smile.

17. Snow Angel
Performed by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Words and music by Patti Jo Edwards 2013
Snow angel glowed glistened sparkled and rose
Lifting it's lovely self up and above
Lighting the night with a magical light
And I just happened to see
Peace and love - kindness and hugs
Warm happy wishes 'round bountiful food
Children laughing and everything right
Perfection on a clear winter's night
Snow angel gathered the stars in her arms
Sprinkled them over the land and the farms
And magic happened as a star field grew
Into many points of light and we all knew there are
Peace and love - kindness and hugs
Warm happy wishes 'round bountiful food
Children laughing and everything right
Perfection on a clear winter's night
Snow angel giggled in tinkling bells
Songs of tiny snow birds and swells into
a symphony of music that combines with songs
From all the people shared all year long of
Peace and love - kindness and hugs
Warm happy wishes 'round bountiful food
Children laughing and everything right
Perfection on a clear winter's night
Then snow angel grew and spread 'cross the land
Falling in large flakes to start again
As a blanket of white, clean and fresh
That come spring will melt and flow
Into rivers that help things to grow and
Peace and love - kindness and hugs
Warm happy wishes 'round bountiful food
Children laughing and everything right

19. Giggle and Grin
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards
We resist falling in love, But it’s where we want to be
I want to be with you - You want to be with me
So, we make our dates - We dance our dance
We find the time for touching and romance
And we giggle and grin
And I let you into my heart
We both giggle and grin
And you let me into your heart
It’s all so beautiful - the city streets at night
Walking and holding hands feels so right
It’s cold, but I’m not cold - The city air is fresh tonight
Being with you keeps me warm - I’m excited by the sounds and sights
And we giggle and grin
I let you into my heart
We both giggle and grin
And you let me into your heart
Where shall we eat - It doesn’t matter to me
What shall we see - I don’t care
What shall we do?
How ‘bout kissing and hugging - I can’t get enough of you
Living for this moment - Your touch brings on ecstasy
It’s not so strange, it’s the way it’s supposed to be
And what if you don’t love me tomorrow?
Why worry ‘bout that now?
We have resisted falling love
I’m not falling - I’m floating
Isn’t that the way it’s supposed to be
Giggling and grinning
And sharing the love of two hearts
We’re both giggling and grinning
And sharing the love of two hearts.

20. No Suffering State of Mind
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards
http://cdbaby.com/cd/pattijorothedwards21
Oh, there's just no reason to wonder why
Some people must suffer until the day they die
Suffering’s a way of life, but it's not mine.
They cry and moan about their lives
Sad for any reason even a blue, blue sky
Without any reason they moan and cry.
There is true suffering and I know
Some who suffer but don't let it show;
The blues they sing can make me laugh;,
Can I understand? Not by half.
’Cause my life's not theirs and theirs is not mine;
I'm grateful for my blessings It would be a crime
to have it this good and still cry.
Yes, my life is fine; it's sublime;
It's not for everyone, but it's mine;
I don't tell you how to live, but if you want my two cents,
here's what I can give:
Time flies when you're having fun,
So, if your day is dragging on and on
Lift your chin up; come on, the day is fine
Rain or shine, I don't bother with a suffering state of mine;
I live happy I don't choose a suffering state of mind.
Every day and all the time,
It’s my choice to not have a suffering state of mind.

21. Ride With the Wind
You Tube link: http://youtu.be/lLfsCnciTrM
I will ride with the wind
I will ride with the wind
The winds of liberty blow strong within
So I must ride with the wind
You think I’m so silly to stand on principle
To side with the patriots - heed freedom’s call
You think making new laws will fix this place
This isn’t a smile on my face
I will ride with the wind
I will ride with the wind
The winds of liberty blow strong within
So I must ride with the wind
You think a cowboy on a horse with flag blowing free
is hilarious – well, not to me
Heroes on horseback always saved the west
They stand for what is best - liberty.
I will ride with the wind
I will ride with the wind
The winds of liberty blow strong within
So, I must ride with the wind
The people are standing with good and brave heart
This is something that I will take part
To fight for freedom – Freedom isn’t free
Stand with the patriots for liberty
I will ride with the wind
I will ride with the wind
The winds of liberty blow strong within
So I must ride with the wind

22. Build a Bridge
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Patti Jo Edwards copyright 2012
You think you should be sad
fearful, mad and blue
You think that I'm too happy,
well, here's what you can do
Build a bridge - Believe me
Build a bridge - Don't grieve me
Stop giving me grief just 'cause you don't believe
And Build a bridge
You think that I'm too nice
You think nice is weak
You don't believe I'm real,
but I don't care what you think
Just build a bridge.
Yeah, build a bridge
You don't know what I know
and you can't go where I go
So, build a bridge.
You think that I am lyin' - or just plain out of my mind
You don't believe I'm justified being happy all the time
Oh, build a bridge
You can visit
It's my treat
I insist
Whether you believe or not,
I know what I've got is real
So, build a bridge
Once you come to visit;
You won't want to leave
Once you see it's real
That I do not deceive
You'll cross that bridge everyday
Soon you'll come to stay;
Be happy everyday in my world
In my world - In my world
Then it'll be our world.

23. At My Home
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards
At my home
It always starts with a smile and wag
A face full of friendly begins each day
Then out to the world to work or play
Then home again with my best friends at my home
At my home
Don't know why, but I'm having fun
Another cup of coffee then I'm on the run
Don't know how but it all gets done
And where does the time go to sit and be
For you the dog and me at my home
At my home
Friends stop by, pull up a chair
Get the guitar and play and share
Some homemade wine this feels fine
And after a while we'll light the fire to make some food
More good to share, here it's not rare at my home
Everyday and all the time
a face full of friendly, this love of mine
Is here to stay for always everyday at my home
At my home
It starts and ends with a smile and wag
Everyday it's the same way
A heart full of happy and a smile and wag
At my home - At my home - Here at home

24. Two Straws in a Grande Margarita
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards Copyright 2014
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/pattijorothedwards28
One of my very favorite dates with my sweet husband is to go out for Mexican food, order a large platter of nachos with everything (shredded beef, chicken, pork - we ask for it all) and a huge margarita with two straws. On the rare times when life is hard and we don't seem to agree on anything, we always agree about this.
I want two straws in a Grande Margarita
Nachos Supremo on one large plate
Come on Baby. sit a little closer
Come a little closer for goodness sake
We have separate chairs and our own rooms
I like to garden, you ride your bike
We are different people who love to be together
We have a lot in common and we both like
Two straws in a Grande Margarita
Nachos Supremo on one large plate
Come on Baby. sit a little closer
Come a little closer for goodness sake
Most mornings we share & share a meal
You like your eggs a way that is different than mine
I like cream and sugar in my coffee
You like something different and that is fine
We both like two straws in a Grande Margarita
Nachos Supremo on one large plate
Come on Baby. sit a little closer
Come a little closer for goodness sake
Two separate cars - two separate computers
Two separate phones - different tastes
In many ways we are so different
But where it counts we are the same
REFRAIN:
Shredded beef, melted cheese, and a lot of sour cream
Extra guacamole will be so nice, and a margarita over ice
We like two straws in a Grande Margarita
Nachos Supremo on one large plate
Come on Baby. sit a little closer
Come a little closer for goodness sake
A grande Margarita will be just great.

25. A New Year Shines
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright Patti Jo Edwards 2014
I can feel the world begin to shine as the people come awake - begin to thrive
I stand in harmony with all of humanity - begin anew to live and be
My sad heart has found a way; a spark of light warmed a dark cold day
I let love in, the new begins; I can feel the world begin to shine
I raise my eyes to a new bright sky - Dawning of my brand new life
A new year begun- a brand new time; I can feel the year begin to shine
And as the world begins anew; The light of one love is shared by two
Hand in hand we move forward toward the light and soon we begin to shine
Can you feel the world begin to shine?
Can you feel your heart is whole and your life sublime /
The year is new – hand in hand with you - Watch and see, the world begins to shine
I can feel the world begin to shine.
I can feel the world beginning to shine.
I can feel the world begins to shine.

26. A Singable Song
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards
Well, I'll write a song - a song for the people who love to share in a song
We'll make a noise to fill up the silence and soon you’ll want to sing along
And out goes the bad of all the wrong thinking that told you you can't sing
And in comes the good of laughing in tune together we will share a sing-able song
Alone in a room with all of your memories of friends and other ones
Who hurt your heart when you were singing and told you not to sing along
And out goes the bad of all the wrong thinking that told you you can't sing
And in comes the good of laughing in tune together we will share a sing-able song
Many come my way who say they can't sing, some stupid jerk told them so
You can sing all you have to do is want to, just open up and let go.
And out goes the bad of all the wrong thinking that told you you can't sing
And in comes the good of laughing in tune together we will share a sing-able song
The smile on a face and this song in my heart tells me this is so right
I'll bring the guitar, tune up the banjo, lend a voice and harmonize
And out goes the bad of all the wrong thinking that told you you can't sing
And in comes the good of laughing in tune together we will share a sing-able song

27. And So it Goes
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards
I am not mad at the sky just because it rains
Sometimes everyone seems to go insane
But I know things'll come around again
And so I go with the flow
Of Doot-do-do Doot-do-do Doot-do-doooo
Do-dooooooooooooooooooooooo
Doot-do-do Doot-do-do Doot-do-doooo
And so it goes
I don't worry that things won't work out
Concern myself with things I don't know about
Wish I had taken a different rout
I am where I am
And Doot-do-do Doot-do-do Doot-do-doooo
Do-dooooooooooooooooooooooo
Doot-do-do Doot-do-do Doot-do-doooo
And so it goes
Today is new and tomorrow is too
Let's get away for an hour or two
Always good to be with you
To sing and play
And Doot-do-do Doot-do-do Doot-do-doooo
Do-dooooooooooooooooooooooo
Doot-do-do Doot-do-do Doot-do-doooo
And so it goes
And as we skip along singing our perfect songs in harmony
Heartbeats of happy move us along and guide our feet
Doot-do-do Doot-do-do Doot-do-doooo
Do-dooooooooooooooooooooooo
Doot-do-do Doot-do-do Doot-do-doooo
And so it goes

28. Fly, Baby Fly
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards
Written in 1994
Well, I’m dancin’ every dance to save my life;
I’m glad that you are leavin’, Baby, have a good life;
Quick as I could think, you moved in on me;
While you were sayin’ nice things, I thought, “We’ll wait and see;”
I just hung up the phone, you were sayin’, “Good bye;”
Here’s your hat - now what’s your hurry, “Fly, Baby fly.”
I didn’t know your name; all at once you were my friend;
Callin’ every day, sayin’ this would never end;
I didn’t listen to you; too good to be true’
You said you were sincere, but, Honey, I’m no fool;
I wasn’t put here yesterday; I’ve seen ‘em come and go’
Here’s your hat – now what’s your hurry, “Blow, Baby blow.”
There’s a lake with your name on it, perfect for jumpin’ in;
I wouldn’ve felt deserted, if I’d thought you were my friend;
You couldn’t run me, so you’re runnin’ away;
I won’t waste a single word askin’ you to stay.
So, don’t trip on the carpet as you show yourself out;
You say you understand, but that’s something I doubt;
And as you drive away, see me waving, “Goodbye;”
Here’s your hat – now, what’s your hurry, fly, Baby fly;
Here’s your hat – now, what’s your hurry, Bye, Baby bye.

29. Hallelujah
Words & Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright Patti Jo Edwards 2014
I heard the sound no one else could hear
Felt a love true and sincere
You don't hear what I am hearing, do ya?
The unknown power of a voice whispers of a blessed choice
- the blessings of the Savior - hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
Beauty by the Divine hand
Creator's gift to understand that if I walk the righteous path of truth
Love and joy will fill my sight;
The holiest of perfect right will fill my heart and I'll sing hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
Every day and all my life I’ll walk with joy in the light,
and you may do the same thing if you choose to
The sweetest breath you'll ever take - The hardest choice you'll ever make
Is to walk with God and live love – hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
I made my choice, this is my walk to live this life
and never stop living love to the fullest
God knew what I needed most;
The Father, Son and Holy Ghost lifted me
I've heard the hallelujah.
Hallelujah, hallelujah, Hallelujah, hallelujah.

30. Hot, Black and Lots of it
Words & Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright Patti Jo Edwards 2015
I like to get up and go soon as my feet hit the floor
Put the pot on a timer, it gets goin' 'bout a quarter to four
Got things to do to get ready to go - Two big mugs and I'm ready to roll
Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee - Coffee
Well I'm a-revin' and a rollin' and I hit the ground runnin - It's the way that I roll
Take a shower, walk the dog, feed the fish, feed myself, Then I hit the road
Got miles to go - a paycheck to get - A place at the diner where I always sit
Do you want a cup of coffee - well, hell yeah! I drink it hot, black and lots of it
Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee - Coffee
Every day is the same, I love it will not leave it - It's the life that I live
Got friends that love me, real loyal, won't leave me - What I get is what I give
They got miles to go and a paycheck to get; Their place at the diner’s next to where I sit
And they want their cup of coffee - say, "Hell yeah" They drink it hot, black and lots of it.
Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee - Coffee
It can be stormin' and snowin', rainin' and blowin' but if I'm out I must roll
Go out to get my coffee to the place that's closest to me in the ice and the snow
They have to have my brand, not just the drugs I need
It's the comfort and the joy gets me up to speed
Coffee in my favorite cup, pour it in and drink it up; I like it hot, black and lots of it
Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee
Got a friend who likes it too hot, likes to sip it make it last, But that's not right for me
Got a friend who adds sugar and another who adds stevia and one who likes honey
Some like milk, some want cream, some want it all but for me
a great big mug of coffee is what I get; I like it hot, black and lots of it.
Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee - Coffee
Everyday I - get up and go - soon as my feet hit the floor
Put the pot on a timer, it gets goin' in the mornin’ real early 'bout a quarter to four
I Got things to do to get ready to go - Two big mugs and I'm ready to roll
I drink it hot, black and lots of it. Hot, black and lots of it. Hot, black and lots of it.

I like to get up and go soon as my feet hit the floor
Put the pot on a timer, it gets goin' 'bout a quarter to four
Got things to do to get ready to go - Two big mugs and I'm ready to roll
Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee - Coffee
Well I'm a-revin' and a rollin' and I hit the ground runnin - It's the way that I roll
Take a shower, walk the dog, feed the fish, feed myself, Then I hit the road
Got miles to go - a paycheck to get - A place at the diner where I always sit
Do you want a cup of coffee - well, hell yeah! I drink it hot, black and lots of it
Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee - Coffee
Every day is the same, I love it will not leave it - It's the life that I live
Got friends that love me, real loyal, won't leave me - What I get is what I give
They got miles to go and a paycheck to get; Their place at the diner’s next to where I sit
And they want their cup of coffee - say, "Hell yeah" They drink it hot, black and lots of it.
Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee - Coffee
It can be stormin' and snowin', rainin' and blowin' but if I'm out I must roll
Go out to get my coffee to the place that's closest to me in the ice and the snow
They have to have my brand, not just the drugs I need
It's the comfort and the joy gets me up to speed
Coffee in my favorite cup, pour it in and drink it up; I like it hot, black and lots of it
Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee – Coffee

31. I Can Feel the World Begin to Shine
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright Patti Jo Edwards 2014
I can feel the world begin to shine
As the people come awake - begin to choose to thrive
A choice to live and be with nature in harmony
This is my right - my destiny
This world evolved with us - its ours
It is not the money that decides who has power
Power is in the choice to live and the extra I will choose give
Back to the earth - and for what it's worth
This is not easy - to take a stand
To say, "yes" to what is best in man
To choose honor and integrity
To choose beauty live joyfully in spite of it all
There are many who do not know
That living well is a choice and discipline to grow
The food as nature demands - Cherish and care for the land
As part of the world community - Want to feel well and thrive - join me
And you will feel your world begin to shine
The light that is yours and ours will join mine
And the songs of birds will fill the air as all life thrives abundance shared
This is our right and can be a perfect living perfectly our destiny
Can you feel the world begin to shine
I feel the world begin to shine

32. I Feel Marvelous
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright Patti Jo Edwards 2014
I feel marvelous – simply sublime
I want to go and play with a friend of mine
I’ll call her on the phone - And if she is at home
And if she can get away - We’ll go out and play
Do you wanna go for a walk - Do you wanna go out and play
Do you wanna spend the day - We can have some fun today
We’ll do whatever we will do – Use up all the time we use
Doesn’t matter what we do - Just wanna be with you
I feel marvelous – simply divine
Wanna do nothing useful - For an indiscriminate amount of time
And if you’d like that to - We’ll do our best to do
Whatever we will do - Just wanna be with you
Do you wanna go for a walk - Do you wanna go out and play
Do you wanna spend the day - We can have some fun today
We’ll do whatever we will do – Use up all the time we use
Doesn’t matter what we do - Just wanna be with you
I feel marvelous – simply sublime
I called my best friend – got her on the line
She can get away - So we are going soon
Told her it doesn’t matter what we do - Just wanna be with you
She said, “Yeah me too; I only wanna be with you.”

33. One Voice
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright Patti Jo Edwards 2015
One voice - three sing as one voice
Three making a choice to sound just as one
We three singing in harmony knowing perfectly we have just begun
To be a voice that can change a room – We can light the dark
We are as one voice - it is the sweetest sound – our song can heal a heart
One voice - we sing as one voice
Unite and rejoice to share our song
Love leads a chorus in harmony
Excitement grows - we have just begun
We are one voice reaching out to the silent ones who feel alone
One voice so full, as our souls and hearts become as one
We unite and delight to be as one
One voice is what can heal the world
We are parts of the One singing in harmony our song
Add your part and sing along or just step in time if you have no voice
You are not alone – add your dance to the song of the One Voice
Our voice – the One Voice
Our song of One Voice

34. Party Real Hardy Come Saturday Night
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards

A little tiny flea can drive a big dog crazy - Wrong can never win when it's fighting right
I work real hard - no, I ain't lazy, and I party real hardy come Saturday night
Everyday the list to do takes all day - There's so much work that I don't play
And when I get to the end of my rope I hit the ground flying knowing what I know that a ...
A little tiny flea can drive a big dog crazy - Wrong can never win when it's fighting right
I work real hard - no, I ain't lazy and I party real hardy come Saturday night
I must be lucky with so much to do - It's never ever boring - I expect it's true
When my feet hit the ground in the morning dark - The list begins again - here's where it starts
A little tiny flea can drive a big dog crazy - Wrong can never win when it's fighting right
I work real hard - no, I ain't lazy and I party real hardy come Saturday night
I really am a lover of the life I live - I really am a giver and what I give
Is a word or two or three or four - I got so much wisdom - here's two cents more
A little tiny flea can drive a big dog crazy - Wrong can never win when it's fighting right
I work real hard - no, I ain't lazy and I party real hardy come Saturday night
Sometimes I’ve had enough; can’t take much more - Sometimes I feel like running right out the door
When I get to the edge of the street, I just start laughin’ ‘cause what I see
A little tiny flea can drive a big dog crazy - Wrong can never win when it's fighting right
I work real hard - no, I ain't lazy and I party real hardy come Saturday night
I party real hardy come Saturday night.

35. Perfect Winter Time of Year
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards
Clear dark morning - moonlight shines on the snow
The ice shimmers with Starshine and moonglow
I watch from where I stand - cup in hand
Warm in my home in Winterland
Children thrill at the thought of it
Favorite songs fill the Internet radio - so good to hear
You and I may sing along when they play our favorite songs
at this perfect Winter time of year
The morning star - the sun is rising
The silence of morning fills me with peace
And now large gentle flakes of snow begin to fall
By my window side I’m thinking of all
The children thrilling at the thought of it
Favorite songs filling the Internet radio - so good to hear
You and I may sing along when they play our favorite songs
at this perfect Winter time of year
Sunshine shimmers on the snow so white
Sweaters and gloves keep me warm when I go outside
This world makes me smile – it’s so fresh and clean
I’m walking in Winterland in a life that’s so sweet
And I smile at the thought of it
Favorite songs fill the Internet radio - so good to hear
You and I may sing along when they play our favorite songs
at this perfect Winter time of year
Blue skies and Barren Oaks with mistletoe,
Decorates the winter world I know
And dear friends who stop by to talk and play
Share their stories of their winter days
And we smile at the thought of it
Favorite songs fill the Internet radio - so good to hear
You and I may sing along when they play our favorite songs
at this perfect Winter time of year.
And we smile at the thought of it
Favorite songs fill the Internet radio - so good to hear
You and I may sing along when they play our favorite songs
at this perfect Winter time each year.

36. Song for my Daughter
Words and Music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Patti Jo Edwards copyright 2011
Sometimes to study living we must die a thousand times
You might think that sounds wrong but down deep you know it's right
So you leave me behind to live what feels bad
I will stay here choosing joy while you are choosing sad
And I will see you on the other side on a shining plane
After you tire of the suffering and pain
After you learn all there is of grief and shame
I will see you on the other side
One life is made of many lives like chapters in a book
What you see entirely depends on where you look
What you're hearing in my words depends on what is in your head
I speak love and caring you hear the opposite instead
And I will see you on the other side of all your hurt and pride
And when we reach that shining place
You will hear the music of my soul
And we will be whole on the other side
For now I will let you go as you choose to turn away
I accept your right to leave me knowing that someday
I will see you again in loving caring space
You will finally know me when we reach that loving place
You'll see that we are made of love - that is all we are
Life is for the choosing - the choice is always ours
We are all connected - points of sacred light
We have to go through wrong to learn and know what is right
And I will see you on the other side on a shining shore
And my heart will embrace yours and we will be once more
For I have always loved you and loved just who you are
I'll always be your mother You'll always be my child
I will see you my daughter in just a little while
On the other side - On the other side.

Today could be lonely, but for you - Coming to share a cup or two
Of something hot and something sweet - If you come and laugh with me,
We’ll be as friends - Only a love as shared by two
Explains how I feel for you - Love reciprocal from the start
Coming from a sincere heart
Today could be quiet, but for you - Coming to sing a song or two
To join together in harmony - If you come and sing with me,
We’ll be as friends - Only a love as shared by two
Explains how I sing with you - Love reciprocal from the start
Coming from a sincere heart
Today could be cold, but for you coming to hold me close, we two
Fit together perfectly - If you come and love with me,
We’ll be as friends - Only a love as shared by two
Explains how I feel with you - Love reciprocal from the start
Coming from our sincere hearts
Today will be such a happy day of laughing and loving and we may
Stay this way for eternity when you come and be with me,
We’ll be as friends - Our love shared will light the world,
We’ll be as friends - No longer lonely or cold
We will be as friends, and as we grow old
The world will know this is the greatest story ever told
A life shared with friends
We are friends
You are my friend

38. Wellness Uprising
Words and music by Patti Jo Roth-Edwards
Copyright 2014 Patti Jo Edwards
The children are sick - The elders not sane
Our neighbors are suffering in disease and pain
It's time for us to make a stand - This is a wellness uprising
Join hands across the land
This is a wellness uprising - GMO must go - This is a wellness uprising
No more foods drenched in pesticides - This is a wellness uprising
It is we who now decide - This is a wellness uprising
We - united now we stand - Spread the word across the land
This is a wellness uprising - GMO must go - This is a wellness uprising
Imagine a world where you can drink from a stream
Where you can safely breath the air
Imagine a world where children play outside
Where the law is fair
This is a wellness uprising - GMO must go - This is a wellness uprising
Are you really eating food designed by man from a laboratory and a plan.
Held in the hand of a company specializing in chemistry not health
This is a wellness uprising - GMO must go - This is a wellness uprising
Everyone can be well - Healthy and sane
It can be normal to be free of disease and pain
It's time for us to make a stand - This is a wellness uprising
Join hands across the land - This is a wellness uprising - GMO must go
This is a wellness uprising - GMO must go - This is a wellness uprising
