This is gonna be a hard one.

This is not a request for the Steve Gillette & Rex Benson song already in the Digitrad.

On their classic album "Fire on the Mountain" the Highwoods Stringband did an instrumental called "The Ways of the World". In the liner notes, they say that it was surely done as a song at some point because you can almost hear the refrain "and those are the ways of the world" in the tune itself.

We've been doing it as an instrumental for years and would be in Seventh Heaven if anyone actually knows the words.
