A Songwriter's Prayer
Son of Charlie Goodnight
Come with Me
Song of the Trinity
All that Cities have Forgotten
I Come for the River
A Sadly Scripted Part
White Women's Clothes
Of Men of Vision
Crossing the Pecos
The Pecos, from Castle Gap
An Eye on the Boss
Charlie Goodnight's Barn
Song for Molly, Mary Ann
First Looking into the Palo Duro
Power in the Wind
Horseback on the Llano Estacado A Woman's Life
Driving at Night on the Plains
Standing Deer's Lament
A Kingdom of the Cowboy Tribe
Palo Duro Farewell
Put Your Kodak Up
The Last Buffalo Hunt
Haley Taking Notes
Voices from the Grave
Like Most Men Breathed
I Want my Coffee Black
Saddlin' Up Time
Son of Charlie Goodnight Reprise
