Thirty-Six Miles, by Hal Cannon Thirty-six miles from Zuni to Gallup Heaven to hell and in between Watch those kicks on 66 Booze and trains and lying lips Thirty-six miles from Zuni to Gallup Buckskin gloves, a thumb to the wind Red rock and freezing light Magic wings and coming night Shalako, Shalako Thirty-six miles from Zuni to Gallup There’s blood on this highway There’s love on it too Keep those tears from soaking through Shalako, Shalako Thirty-six miles from Zuni to Gallup Winter moon is coming on Dancers pray to bless this place Zuni thanks on every face Shalako ,Shalako Thirty-six miles from Zuni to Gallup The ancient ones don’t talk to me Facing north, I’ve come apart A humble guest with an aching heart Shalako, Shalako, Shalako, Shalako, Shalako Petition: May we move from the profane to the sacred

“Don’t Look Back” by Hal Cannon ASCAP Don’t look back, slows you down Don’t look back, don’t watch the ground See ahead, smile bright Trust your feet and face the light Look around, a beauty day Sun and air will lead the way Just move on, let beauty flow It’s your move; it's yes, or no Flows the water to the sea We can fight or let it be Just relax and drink it in Feel the current from within It’s the comfort of tradition That can lead us to submission Just stay true and try to be kind Truly seek and ye shall find Petition: May we live in faith, one step at a time
