Can't you hear the night bird's crying Can't you hear the lonesome dove Saying,"Won't you come back, darling To the only one you love?" Meet me out on the mountain Underneath the lonesome pine There we vowed we'd love each other Darling, say won't you be mine Pretty mountain laurels blooming Pretty wild wood flowers grow There we vowed we'd love each other In our childhood long ago Meet me out on the mountain Underneath the lonesome pine There we vowed we'd love each other Darling, say won't you be mine There I left my little darling Lord, I've rammbled for so long Many nights I prayed to see her Now I'm on my way back home Meet me out on the mountain Underneath the lonesome pine There we vowed we'd love each other Darling, say won't you be mine
