1
ON TOP OF OLD SMOKEY ALL COVERED WITH SNOW
2
I LOST MY TRUE LOVER FOR COURTING TOO SLOW
3
FOR COURTING'S A PLEASURE AND PARTING'S A GRIEF
4
AND A FALSE HEARTED LOVER IS WORSE THAN A THIEF
5
FOR A THIEF WILL JUST ROB YOU AND TAKE ALL YOU SAVE
6
BUT A FALSE HEARTED LOVER WILL LEAD YOU TO THE GRAVE
7
AND THE GRAVE WILL DECAY YOU AND TURN YOU TO DUST
8
NOT ONE GIRL IN A HUNDRED A POOR BOY CAN TRUST
9
THEY'LL HUG YOU AND KISS YOU AND TELL YOU MORE LIES
10
THAN CROSS LINES ON A RAILROAD OR STARS IN THE SKIES
11
SO COME ALL YOUR MAIDENS AND LISTEN TO ME
12
NEVER PLACE YOUR AFFECTIONS ON A GREEN WILLOW TREE
13
FOR THE LEAVES THEY WILL WITHER AND THE ROOTS THEY WILL DIE
14
YOU'LL ALL BE FORSAKEN AND NEVER KNOW WHY.
