Sycamore Hollow |
It was down by the forked stream |
Out in Sycamore Holler |
I went down in my best of dress |
To take her from her father |
With hair down to her waist |
The color of strawberries |
Down by the forked stream |
By night fall we would marry |
I sure love the farmer’s daughter |
Back in Sycamore Holler |
On a horse seventeen hands high |
He rode in Sherman 's army |
To Atlanta town against her will |
He took my woman from me |
Well I grabbed my knife and |
Both of my guns |
In a loud voice I did call her |
Upon a lightning horse I swore once more |
As I left Sycamore Holler |
I will bring the farmer’s daughter |
Back to Sycamore Holler |
It was down by the river’s edge |
I see the campfire flicker |
Four dead men lay behind |
As I leave that campsite with her |
Now our children play in a forked stream |
Out in Sycamore Holler |
With a boy like me and a girl like her |
We’ll always be together |
I sure love the farmer’s daughter |
Down in Sycamore Holler |
