DOWN THE MOUNTAIN
By Abbie Gardner (Gimmie Some Ribs Music, administered by Modern Works, ASCAP)
Take my trouble down the mountain, can’t carry it no more
take my trouble down the mountain, can’t carry it no more
throw that trouble down the mountain, can’t carry it no more
trouble weighed me down so long
My Daddy was a miner, dug Kentucky coal
My Daddy was a miner, dug Kentucky coal
Now he’s buried ‘neath the mountain, God rest his soul
Trouble weighed him down so long
Send my prayers down river, in little paper boats
Send my prayers down river, in little paper boats
They’re too heavy for heaven, so I hope they float
Troubled weighed me down so long
Take my trouble down the mountain, can’t carry it no more
take my trouble down the mountain, can’t carry it no more
throw that trouble down the mountain, can’t carry it no more
trouble weighed me down so long

See You Again
by Janie Barnett and Abbie Gardner (2020)
I’m learning French, I’ve got ten conjugations
You always said, we’d go someday
I’m counting the stars, in each constellation
As if Orion could lead me back to you
I am restless, this feels endless
Even time holds her breath
Wondering where or when
I will see you again
Look at this desk, in perfect order
I fixed the sink, you would be proud
I go for a run, but where does it get me?
No closer to you my darlin' I am crazy
Restless, this feels endless
Even time holds its breath
Wondering where or when
I will see you again
Pour a slow red wine, and by fate’s design
I will see you again

Born in the City
by Abbie Gardner & Will Kimbrough
Come on in, sit down at my table
There ain’t nobody that I would not feed
Bring your favorite dish if you’re able
I don’t care if you look like me
I hope you don’t mind if I don’t speak your language
Have another plate of those rice and beans
All my friends are here at the banquet
Everybody knows what hungry means
born in the city
Born in the city, just like me
Born and raised in New York City
I know darn near every street
Some high class but most real gritty
Walked it all with my own two feet
Uptown, Downtown, East Side, West Side
No one’s shocked by what they see
Rich folks, poor folks, young folks, old folks
Everybody working for the rent they need
born in the city
Born in the city, just like me
Born in the city
Born in the city, just like me

Three Quarter Time
by Abbie Gardner (ASCAP) Gimmie Some Ribs Music admin by Modern Works
Lonely moon, shines through the window pane
onto the hard wood floor, where we stood.
The sweetest song sang from the stereo
you took me in your arms and danced me slow
There’s something about a waltz that I adore
the romance in that simple dance, gliding ‘cross the floor
A sentimental melody with your cheek warm on mine
my heart beats, only in three quarter time
So dance me ‘round, when life brings me down
I don’t need a poet, you know how to make me swoon
Leave the flowers in the dirt, leave the cork in the wine
Play the hi-fi and take my hand
Cause there’s something about a waltz that I adore
the romance in that simple dance, gliding ‘cross the floor
A sentimental melody with your cheek warm on mine
my heart beats, only in three
my heart beats, only in three quarter time
