There is a tree , flowers in spring White cherry buds, 22 rings I helped her grow, but have never seen Carolina winter or Aberdeen
From the Missisippi Floodgates my body churned Up the river delta my mother yearned To taste the sweetness of her pain Fallin down in Carolina rain
And if I stay ill stay today My body has followed in her wake If I’m to go, Ill go away To Aberdeen And there ill wait
She stayed by the sea Hardened town Smell of fish watered down Taste of liquor on her mouth And her heart it wandered down to the south
And if I stay ill stay today My body has followed in her wake If I’m to go, Ill go away To Aberdeen And there ill wait

And if I stay ill stay today My body has followed in her wake If I’m to go, Ill go away To Aberdeen And there ill waitTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
