INTRO:
Earth Goddess, Earth Goddess, Earth Goddess, ooooooh….
That Samhain night, the door was closed
The hand reached from the crack
We rushed to you, but we were late,
Carried away, but looking back
CHORUS:
Earth Goddess, can you hear me?
Earth Goddess, are you near me?
Are you somewhere down below?
In Spring, will you let the new plants grow?
What was it you were looking for,
When he took you that night?
They say they found a pomegranate
Clutched in your fingers tight.
Chorus
Just six long months that you'll be gone
They'd taken you away.
I hope to drink your waters again
On that joyous warm May Day.
Chorus
Earth Goddess, Earth Goddess
Answer me, please...
Under the Dolmen

Originally “Under the Boardwalk” by the Drifters
Music www.discoverynet.com/~ajsnead/allsongs_1/bdwalk.html
[Sidhe is pronounced "Shee"]
Oh when the sun beats down and burn the flowers on the heath
And your head get so hot you wish you were ten feet beneath
Under the dolmen, down with the Sidhe, yeah.
On a tartan with my lassie is where I'd be.
From the road you hear the haunting sound of wee bag pipe
Mm-mmm, you can taste the apples which are always ripe
Under the dolmen, down with the Sidhe
On a tartan with my lassie is where I'd be.
Chorus:
(Under the dolmen) out of the sun
(Under the dolmen) we'll be havin' some fun
(Under the dolmen) people working above
(Under the dolmen) we'll be making love
Under the dolmen (dolmen!)
407
[break]
Ooooh, under the dolmen, down with the Sidhe, yeah
On a tartan with my lassie is where I'd be.
Chorus
Solstice Song
By Rachel
July 17, 2002/07/29
(Adapted from the popular Christian song "Shine Jesus Shine")
Music home.att.net/~icu8/midis/christian/shinejesusshine.htm
This came to me at about 1am last night as I was trying to
sleep...ah well. A belated Solstice song, but it might work for
other holidays as well. Guitar chords might be on TabCrawler
someplace, but the search function is down and I don't know who
wrote the song, which is the only way to find songs at the moment.
It works as an a capella tune in the meantime.
Shine, Be'al, shine,
Fill this land with your Solstice blessings
Blaze, balefire, blaze,
Purify us tonight
Flow, chalice, flow
Let the Waters-of-Life be blessed
Send forth the Sun, Bel
And celebrate the light!
I've Got Friends in Stone Circles

Original song by Garth Brooks, “I’ve got Friends in Low Places”

[Short intro music]
I upset those elites
I showed up in sheets
And ruined their interfaith prayer
The rest had one god
I looked like a clod
I was barefoot with flowers in my hair
I saw the surprise
And concern in their eyes
When I did a wild ritual dance
They might not call
Me to their winter ball
But I don't mind if there's no chance.
'Cause I've got friends in stone circles
Where the whiskey flows, and the sickles
cut my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on dogma's shackles
Think I'll stick close to those natural cycles
Oh, I've got friends in stone circles
Well, I guess I did wrong
I just don't belong
Perhaps, it was my sacrifice?
I guess its no good
I should stay in the woods
And just three escorts should suffice (oof!)
Hey I didn't mean
To cause a big scene
Just gimme an hour out there and then
