“Centerfield” by John Fogerty
“Country Roads” by John Denver
“This Land is Your Land” by Woodie Guthrie (Bob Dylan/Bruce Springsteen versions)
“American Land” by Bruce Springsteen (Seeger Sessions in Dublin)
“When the Saints Go Marching In” by Flatt & Scruggs
“Long Time Gone” by Dixie Chicks

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY! Enjoy the BBQs and fireworks! ;)
