What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Nestled in the heart of the Tennessee Hills
2
There neat the pines midst the rocks and the rills
3
There stands my old homestead of long long ago
4
It brings back sweet memories of the one I loved so
5
I'll tell you the reason why I left her there
6
To roam this old world with its sorrow and care
7
I saw her one night in the arms of a man hugging and kissing as two lovers can
8
I went to my home with a heart full of woe packed my belongings determined to go
9
For many long years this old world I did roam
10
With thoughts of my sweetheart my darling my own
11
[ fiddle ]
12
While dining one day in a little country town
13
A stranger walked in and he chanced to sit down
14
While talking of loved ones I happened to find
15
That his sister was that old sweetheart of mine
16
When he heard my story to me then he said
17
The one you left there has a long time been dead
18
She waited so long for the day you'd return
19
And why you had left her she never did learn
20
Now I was the one who you saw that fatal night
21
Wrapped in the arms of my sister so tight
22
She loved you so dearly but you broke her heart
23
Stranger from her ever more you must part
