Don Rigsby - Walking up This Hill on Decoration Day текст песни

Исполнитель: Don Rigsby

альбом: Doctor's Orders: A Tribute to Ralph Stanley


Oh lord I'm so lonesome
My wife went to heaven one year today
Songbirds sing their sadness
Walkin up this hill on decoration day
My children know not the reason
The fast train took their mother away
On her grave we'll place new flowers
Walking up this hill on decoration day
My babies ask me about her each night when they kneel down to pray
Oh lord I have no answer climbing up this hill on decoration day
Later that night dad took his own
Life worried and sick since mom went away
Left eight little children to face life
Together and walk up this hill next decoration day
Early in springtime when flowers were bloomin they'd pick roses for
Their loved ones on their way but this year there's a new grave stone
Standin on this hill on decoration day .
Twenty years later the family came to see us,
With roses in their hands you could almost hear them say
It's so sad to place new flowers up on this hill on decoration day.
