Carter's Blues Lyrics

Carter's Blues

As I walked out one morning fair
To view the fields and taste the air
For to view the fields and nettles around
I thought I heard some lonesome sound
O thought I heard my true love say
O do turn and come this way

Jodley, jodley eh jodley

(Instrumental)

You love some other and you don't love me
You care not for my company
You love some other and I know why
Because he has more gold than I
But gold will melt and silver will fly
My love for you will never die

Jodley, jodley eh jodley

There is a flower I've heard them say
That can be seen from day to day
And if that flower I only could find
To cure this aching heart of mine

Jodley, jodley eh jodley
Jodley, jodley eh jodley
