I recall the time you took me on a fishing trip, and I said daddy, won't the hook hurt the fishes lip and daddy if they don't get air those things in the will die, so we turned the wormsloose and chased some butterflies" etc.... The 2nd song may be an older folk or bluegrass song. what I remember goes" there's an old ramshackle shack where in dreams i wander back ..... it's the place wher I was born on a clear ... morn"..something about" ... that's nestled among the sycamore trees where the sunshine is cheary? and nothing in the world grows dreary? at my cabin at the end of my river of memories" Please if any one can Help,I need these songs!!!!!:0 |

It's supposed to be at Motoya's bluegrass songbook, but the page wasn't there and I got it out of the Goocle cache. don't know songwriter information. Lyrics sent by e-mail. -Joe Offer- RIVER OF MEMORY There's an old ram-shackled shack where in dreams I wandered back And we listened to those southern melodies Was a place where I was born on a bright October morn And it's nestled at the end of my river of memory Did you ever go sailing down the river of memoryThere's a mother old and gray at the end of memory's way And I'll meet her there tonight among the trees And with her welcome she so sweetly beckons me To my cabin at the end of my river of memory * Refrain When twilight shadows fall, many childhood voices call Calling back to the good old days that used to be And in answer to their prayers, I'll soon be sailing there To my cabin at the end of my river of memory * Refrain (Recorded by Ricky Skaggs on the "Family & Friends" album - he claims it's traditional) |

Here are the lyrics, from The Best of Albert E. Brumley (1966, Albert E. Brumley & Sons) - http://www.brumleymusic.com/ DID YOU EVER GO SAILIN'? [Down the River of Memories] (Albert E. Brumley) There's an old ramshackle shack where in dreams I wander back And listen to those Southern melodies 'Twas the place where I was born on a bright October morn And it's nestled at the end of my river of memories CHORUS: Did you ever go sailin' down the river of memories To a little log cabin that is nestled among the sycamore trees Where the sunshine is cheery and nothing in the world grows dreary That's the cabin at the end of my river of memories There's a mother old and grey at the end of memory's way I will meet her there tonight among the trees With a smile of welcome she so sweetly beckons me To that cabin at the end of my river of memories CHORUS When the twilight shadows fall many childhood voices call Call me back again to days that used to be And in answer to their pray'r I will soon be sailin' there To that cabin at the end of my river of memories CHORUS copyright, 1938, by the Stamps-Baxter Company |
