Way back in the hills when a boy I once wandered There beneath the grave lies a girl that I love She was called from this earth a jewel from heaven More precious than diamonds more precious than gold A jewel here on earth and a jewel in heaven She will brighten the kingdom around God's great throne Maybe angels have peace God bless her in heaven They've broken my heart and they've left me to roam When she was sixteen we courted each other She promised someday to become my sweet wife I bought her the ring to wear on her finger The angels they called her to heaven one night A jewel here on earth...
