I was born in East Virginia North Carolina I did go. There I met the fairest maiden her name and age I did not know. . Her hair it was a light brown color her lips they were red ruby's red.
I'm just driftwood on the river floating down the tide. I don't care where this old river carries me. I keep drifting just because my heart is broken inside.
In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand. With an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand. I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so.
It's so nice to meet an old friend and pass the time of day. And talk about the hometown a million miles away. Is the ice still in the river are the old folks still the same.
He got a letter saying guess you don't remember me. But I'm the girl that you courted before you ran away to sea. You never even wrote a letter even to your mom and dad.
Sit by my side come as close as the air sharing a memory of grey. And wander in my words and dream about the pictures that I play of changes. . Green leaves of summer turn red in the fall to brown and to yellow they fade.
Sometimes I go down to old China town. And just walk around just wander around. Where amber lights gleam and blue shadows fall. Just dreaming a dream of my China doll.
He came speeding through the town each day at sundown. And his car was painted candy apple red. He was coming there to see the sheriff's daughter. And the sheriff didn't know it so they said.
Can't you tell my love's a growin' can't you feel ain't it showin'. Though you must be a knowin' I got a big big love. It's not the kind to be concealin' just the kind to be revealin'.
I met her and with just a glance I thought I found my one romance. She smiled and I was in a trance I called her baby blue eyes. We fell in love right from the start and then she said we'd never part.
Judy your breakfast was good I'd have me some more if I could. Your biscuits and love have filled me your beautiful presents sustill me. You're treatin' me just like a king I know what teardrop will bring.
Abilene, Abilene. Prettiest town I ever seen.. Folks down there don't treat you mean. In Abilene, my Abilene.. . I sit alone most every night. Watch them trains roll out of sight.
Well a poor boy's chances for pretty girl's glances are sometimes very few. But I've got no money if you'll be my honey here's what I'll offer you. Well I'll give you love that's above and beyond the call of love.
