I'm fre-ee-e , free to stand on my own two feet.
Fre-ee-e .........'s heaven to me.


(Something else about free to dance.) ( It's a song I heard on the Christian radio and have not been able to figure out who sings it. It's a female artist.)


Thank you,

If you ever find the name of this song, please le me know. I've been searching for it for years as well.

Sheila

All along the old back road, people stop to talk at her garden gate
while inside the family cries all through the night
Because the old woman has passed away

I loved her so I know she was a special one
A lovely lady, and a gentle old soul
And she taught me to sing an old folk song
It's got a melody from a hundred years ago
And she sang

Come a lou, come a lou, come a high low
Come down a merry stream, I'm remembering.

Those memories have given me so much
She wore her age so gracefully
(line I don't know)
and I pray that there is a little of her in me
She sang

repeat chorus

Old oklahoma in the summertime
In her rocking chair she's a-sittin' there on the porch
While the hounds are howling through the hot black night
And that old fox, he's running like he never has run before

When I hear the melody, and when I play my song
Every note you hear from me, she's singing right along

repeat chorus

All along the old backroad, people stop to talk at the garden gate
While inside the family cries all through the night
Did you hear that old Mrs. Whitten has passed away today?

Come a lou, come a lou, come a high low
Come down a merry stream
Come a ram tam tam and a dippy, dippy dow
Hear the bow, the bow-wow-wow
The bugle's horn, The red fox sittin' in the hidey hole
Through the wood's we're gonna go boys, through the woods we're gonna go.

-- Those are all the lyrics I remember, but I have no idea who sings that song. I've been looking for years.

Josh, Karen, it was a female country singer, a good 20 years ago, so solidly in the early 80's -- there was another female singer with a similar name at the time, that was going great guns -- I wanna say Gail something? long faced gal, with long curly hair.

All along the old back road,
People'd stop to talk at her garden gate
While inside the family cried all through the night
Did you hear that old Mrs Widden(sp) has passed away,
today

Come a loo, come a loo, come a hi-lo,
come down (merry?) stream,
come a ran-tan-tan and a dippy dippy dow(?)
Bugle's horn a big Fie-diddle
and a Hidey-Ho,
through the woods we're gonna run, boys
through the woods


Another fragment, went on about:
And that ol' fox well he's a runnin' like he never has run before

"Got to believe in magic
tell me how two people find each other
in a world that's full of strangers"

possibly a song by nora jones

I've been trying to track this song down for years too! All I remember is:
come a hoo, come a loo, come a high low,
come down the merry street(?)
oh, I remember it.
Come a ran tan tan and a dippy dipy dow.
Ever find the source?

ITs by Billy Ray Cyrus

I know the name of the song and the singer: It's Gail Davies and the song is called "Grandma's Song."
