Once upon a mountain
Livin' like Jack
Up agin it
Work, not play
The gift of medicine
Jack of all trades
Pick britches
Big footprint
The two-room school
What it was to be Baptist

The goin' was rough
A taste of shine
Gettin' a ride
Takin' the lead

Left behind
Never pass this way again

Married life
The worst of it
Storytellin' for a little pay
Row yore own boat.
