Tall Trees in Georgia |
| Tall Trees In Georgia |
| Buffy Sainte-Marie |
| Tall trees in Georgia |
| They grow so high; |
| they shade me so. |
| I’m sadly walking through the thicket I go. |
| The sweetest love I ever had I left a side |
| because I did not want to be any man’s bride |
| My parents took me where ever I traveled out |
| I traveled west and north and east and south |
| When I grew older and married I would be |
| I found my sweetheart, |
| He would not marry me. |
| When I was younger the boys a courtin' came around |
| But now I’m older and they’re all settled down |
| Young girls take warning and don’t com plain an' don’t make moan |
| For if you’re fickle you’ll soon be left a lone |
| Control your mind, my girl And give your heart to one |
| For if you love all men |
| you’ll sure be left with none |
| And if perfection were to be found in mortal men |
| We’d soon grow tired and go off a lone a gain |
| Tall trees in Georgia |
| They grow so high; |
| they shade me so |
| I’m sadly walking through the thicket I go |
