Cant you hear the night birds crying Cant you hear the lonesome dove Saying, Wont you come back, darling To the only one you love Meet me out on the mountain Underneath the lonesome pine There we vowed wed love each other Darling, say wont you be mine Pretty mountain laurels blooming Pretty wildwood flowers grow There we vowed wed love each other In our childhood long ago Then I left my little darling Lord, I wandered for too long Many nights I longed to see her Now Im on my way back home
vowed, darling, lonesome, wed, wildwood
