I remember Lisa and Bill touring around England with Peter Bellamy, singing Santa Fe Trail ("Every Englishman(sic) has an inner cowboy," she said), the Border Widow's Lament, and this song from Almeda Riddle: Only remembered, only remembered, Only remembered for what we have done. Thus would we pass from this earth and its toiling, Only remembered for what we have done. Only the truth that in life we have spoken, Only the seed that in life we have sown. These shall pass onwards when we are forgotten, Only remembered for what we have done.
