Patti Smith - Libbie's Song lyrics
If it wasn't for your golden hair
I would not be lonely.
If it wasn't for your golden hair
I would not be alone.
If it wasn't for your piercin' stare
I would not be lonely.
If it wasn't for your piercin' stare
I would not be alone.
I would not waltz in widow's time
Dressed in black by God's design,
What was yours would not be mine.
If it wasn't for your golden hair
I would not be alone.
You courted me with princely airs,
Said you loved me only,
Kissed the ribbons in my hair,
Said darlin' fly away.
FIDDLE SOLO
Flower of the Calvary
You swept me off my saddle,Patti Smith - Libbie's Song - http://motolyrics.com/patti-smith/libbies-song-lyrics.html
Lifted me into your life,
A soldier's wife was I.
You proudly marched to the horn,
I waited for your swift return,
I stood my ground, so forlorn,
E'er to be alone.
FIDDLE SOLO
I long for you, I long to die,
I've been so lonely,
The pillow's bare by my side
And yet I shall abide
For heaven has a-set for me
Companion for eternity,
So kiss the ribbons in my hair,
Say darlin' come and fly.
If it wasn't for your golden hair
I would not be lonely.
If it wasn't for your golden hair
I would not be alone.
