While walkin' one day in the country I saw a gatherin' crowd And as my footsteps drew me closer I could smell the sweet fragrance of flowers
It look like a family reunion Had my eyes not counted the tears And an old man sat by a graveside I haven't seen Mary in years
Hold my hand and lead me Lead me away from here I just brought these flowers for Mary I haven't seen Mary in years
When Mary and I were first married We had such plans for our child But for no reason I started ramblin' Like the four winds I just ran wild
If I could live our life over I'd bring Mary such cheer Now she's gone where she'll never meet me I haven't seen Mary in years
Hold my hand and lead me Lead me away from here I just brought these flowers for Mary I haven't seen Mary in years
Then the old man left the graveyard I walked along by his side I called out his name but through all his shame His son, he did not recognize
Hold my hand and lead me Lead you away from here How could I know it was Mama I haven't seen Mama in yearsTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
