On Top Of Old Smokey

歌詞

ON TOP OF OLD SMOKEY. ON TOP OF OLD SMOKEY ALL COVERED WITH SNOW I LOST MY TRUE LOVER FOR COURTING TOO SLOW FOR COURTING'S A PLEASURE AND PARTING'S A GRIEF AND A FALSE HEARTED LOVER IS WORSE THAN A THIEF FOR A THIEF WILL JUST ROB YOU AND TAKE ALL YOU SAVE BUT A FALSE HEARTED LOVER WILL LEAD YOU TO THE GRAVE AND THE GRAVE WILL DECAY YOU AND TURN YOU TO DUST NOT ONE GIRL IN A HUNDRED A POOR BOY CAN TRUST THEY'LL HUG YOU AND KISS YOU AND TELL YOU MORE LIES THAN CROSS LINES ON A RAILROAD OR STARS IN THE SKIES SO COME ALL YOUR MAIDENS AND LISTEN TO ME NEVER PLACE YOUR AFFECTIONS ON A GREEN WILLOW TREE FOR THE LEAVES THEY WILL WITHER AND THE ROOTS THEY WILL DIE YOU'LL ALL BE FORSAKEN AND NEVER KNOW WHY.
