Hello out there, we're on the air, it's 'Hockey Night' tonight.
Tension grows, the wistle blows, and the puck goes down the ice.
The goalie jumps, and the players bump, and the fans all go insane.
Someone roars, "Bobby Scores!", at the good ol' Hockey Game.
:: CHORUS ::
OH! The good ol' Hockey game, is the best game you can name.
And the best game you can name, is the good ol' Hockey game.
Second Period.
Where players dash, with skates aflash, the home team trails behind.
But they grab the puck, and go bursting up, and they're down across the line.
They storm the crease, like bumble bees, they travel like a burning flame.
We see them slide, the puck inside, it's a 1-1 hockey game.
(Chorus)
Third Period. Last game of the playoff too!
Oh take me where, the hockey players, face off down the rink.
And the Stanley Cup, is all filled up, for the champs who win the drink.
Now the final flick, of a hockey stick, and the one gigantic scream.
"The puck is in! The home team wins!", the good ol' hockey game.
(Chorus x3)

The Lumberjack by Hal Willis
1964
Well I walk along the river with my new Swede Saw
With a file in the pocket of my old mackanaw
I'm a headed for the wood each morning at the break of day
As I take a little short cut over the hill
I can hear the whistle blow at the old saw mill
It's the night gang a-leaving for the bunkhouse across the bay
Chorus
Well I'm a sitting on a tree stump eating Johnny cake
I heard the whistle blow, I had to take a break
I'm a boiling up my tea in an old tin can
Cause that is the life of a Lumberjack Man
I'm gonna cut me a jack pine tall and limber
You'd better step aside when I holler timber
My double bit axe is gonna make the big chips fly
When the cut is clean, I'll set my wedge
And drive it into place with a nine pound sledge
I've already picked the spot where this big tree gonna lie
Chorus
The swamper's getting ready to take my load
Skidding out my logs, and pile em on the road
I'm a waiting for the jammer, to put them on the sleigh
The boss man's a coming to scale my lumber
I better make sure, that he's got the right number
Before I let the logs go a rolling on their way

Christmas In Folsom
©2017 Stephen K. Donnelly SOCAN/ASCAP
Verse
E E E E / E E B B
E E7 A F# / B B E E
CHORUS
A E B A
A E-E/D#-C#m B
V1
I hear the sleigh bells ringing
In the corners of my mind
But the memories are fading
'Cause it's been a long long time
Since I heard those carollers sing
Cause I done a bad bad thing
Now it's Folsom Prison where I bide my time
V2
Ever since I was a young boy
I loved those Christmas treats
Running down on Christmas morn'
To presents and a tree
Stockings hung above the fire
What more could a heart desire
But ma and pa and Christmas time and me
Chorus:
But I'm spending Christmas in Folsom
Just like I have so many years before
If I can just walk the line in Folsom
Here's hopin' I won't have too many more
V3
My youthful innocence
Turned a deeper shade
There was no explanation
For the trouble that I made
In loneliness and age, my kindness turned to rage
One too many altercations and I was in the street
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO
V4
I thought that when I found you
I'd left behind those ways
But I shot a man on Christmas eve
For something he didn't say
Now instead of hanging wreaths
I just hang my head in shame
I sit alone on Christmas eve with no one else to blame
2nd chorus:
I'm spending Christmas in Folsom
And the only thing that gets me through
Is knowing maybe next year instead of Folsom
I'll be spending Christmas eve with you
Chorus:
I'm spending Christmas in Folsom
You know it’s becoming quite a chore
Yeah I’m spending Christmas time in Folsom
Just like I have a dozen times before
I hope that I won’t have too many more
I guess I’ll stay away from liquor stores
And I won’t dress as Santa any more
