The Carter Family - In The Valley Of The Shenandoah

Текст песни

As I sit alone tonight in the stillness of the night
I picture happy scenes of long ago
Of a maiden fair and bright who is seeping there tonight
In the valley of the Shenandoah Ridge
It was in the month of June when the roses were in bloom
When I held her in my arms and softly said
«Darling, in the coming spring I’ll be coming back again
To the valley of the Shenandoah Ridge»
When I left her all alone in her Shenandoah home
She promised she’d be waiting there for me
But the angels came along and took her from our home
From the valley of the Shenandoah Ridge
When the evening shadows fall, in memory I recall
The pledge when I gave to her a ring
«Darling in the coming spring I’ll be coming back again
To the valley of the Shenandoah Ridge»
