1.	The Moon (His Song) 02:00	lyrics	buy track
There is a cow lying on the prairie There is a bird nestling its young and There is a love in my heart for the moonlight There is a land I have always dreamt of Written in the books that my old man showed me There is a love in my heart for you tonight The moon shines on night's creatures Creatures of the moon Its love grows always stronger You will feel it too
2.	Candle 03:19	lyrics	buy track
Singing together one day, I found You could not be my friend Kissing together one day, I found You could also not love me Yet I feel you in my blood tonight When you take me to your house You blindfold me and you take my hand And you ask me to pray And I said: oh, hey what's that smell Coming from behind your house There's no way it could have been The candles we lit last year Do you have anything we can talk about I'm getting tired of the same old Oh, hey what's that smell Coming from behind your house There's no way it could have been The candles we lit last year Do you have anything we can talk about I'm getting tired of the same old And I said: oh, hey what's that smell Coming from behind your house There's no way it could have been The candles we lit last year Do you have anything we can talk about I'm getting tired of the same old Yesterday you came into my house And you shot me in the heart And today I stand with you again Though I know you wish I were dead And I said: oh, hey what's that smell Coming from behind your house And I said: oh, hey what's that smell Coming from behind your house And I said: oh, hey what's that smell Coming from behind your house There's no way it could have been The candles we lit last year Do you have anything we can talk about I'm getting tired of the same old
3.	Farm Alien Life 03:43	lyrics	buy track
Elizabeth once saw a movie on TV About extraterrestrial life She thought that meeting aliens Was a thing she could do Elizabeth lives on the countryside A farm, a home, a mother and a father by her side She wakes up every morning To walk a mile down to her school And every day when she should be Listening in class She can't help but let her mind wonder To the planets up above "They could be my friends", she thinks But when her teacher calls her name She drops right down and back to Earth One night she prays to The Old Man in the skies above To let her see an alien once Before she moves into the clouds "They could be my friends", she thinks But when her life comes knocking on the door She has to go and tend to it and Elizabeth has gone and grown up on her own A farm, a home, a mother and a family with her name She looks outside one night and wonders What she meant when she Thought she'd meet those funny aliens She saw on TV When she goes to sleep, the little aliens Come to play, and now her Farm is a playground to the friends in her dreams A playground to the friends in her dreams Is a playground to the friends in her dreams Eliza-Elizabeth Eliza-Elizabeth Eliza-Elizabeth Eliza-Elizabeth Come on, Elizabeth To see your alien friends And dance and sing beneath the moon And dance and sing beneath the moon Eliza-Elizabeth Eliza-Elizabeth Eliza-Elizabeth Eliza-Elizabeth Come on, Elizabeth To see your alien friends And dance and sing beneath the moon And dance and sing beneath the moon

6.	Sara 05:51	lyrics	buy track
I knew a girl Her name was Sara Glynn A name so sweet A kiss so tender She came from an old town That time forgot An angel's halo Enchanting spell For 20 years and 90 days She loved me like a brother Oh Sara Oh Sara Glynn Do you remember when we Held each other like a bird? Oh Sara Oh Sara when? We married by the River Rus The place where we first met Carrying fish inside a net My Sara fell sick And there was nothing we could say Just wait inside our house And sing and love and pray For 20 years and 90 days She loved me like a brother Oh Sara Oh Sara Glynn Do you remember our first words Down by the River Rus? Oh Sara Oh Sara mine Sara, when you came to me And softly whispered in my ear You said Heaven was waiting For you, I was in tears I asked to do so much But you wanted to become One with the Earth You sang For 20 years and 90 days She loved me like a brother Oh Sara Oh Sara Glynn Do you remember when we Held each other like a bird? Oh Sara Oh Sara when? For 20 years and 90 days She loved me like a brother Oh Sara Oh Sara Glynn For 20 years and 90 days She loved me like a brother Oh Sara Oh Sara Glynn
7.	Henry (His Life) 02:56	lyrics	buy track
Today we are here To pay our respects To a man who had it all And never gave away Who he was It's such a shame His mother died Early into his life His father couldn't care For him or for his wife He grew alone Brother Henry You'll rest under the town That gave you friends and family Something to move around for A lover, a house, a farm And so much more What else could you have asked for? Suffice it to say We will miss him very much Up on our Lord's Heaven He rests on a cloud Brother Sam Would like to share a word I will miss you every day No matter what everyone might say I know you never cared For the long speeches you read So I'll make this quick: I miss you That's all that needs to be said
8.	The World (His Love) 02:57	lyrics	buy track
There is a cow still on the prairie The birds have taken up and flown away There is a love in your heart for the world A-one, a-two A-three, a-four, a-five Mm-mm-hmm-hmm I will always love you

about

Henry O'Neill passed away on September 22nd, 1887 at the age of 21. He passed in the very hometown he was raised in. Having lived most of his life in the Concordia Parish of Louisiana after his mother passed away, he made plenty of friends here. His "family" --as he'd call them-- of youthful friends are left behind by him on our green Earth with a myriad of loving memories most will take with themselves wherever they go as they grow.

His most beloved friend and colleague, Samuel Inksetter, will present a eulogy in honor of the deceased at a celebration of Henry's life, which will be held at Smith and Sons' Funeral Home, September 27th at 2:00p.m.
