I'm always light-hearted and easy
|
Not a care in this world have I
|
Because I am loved by an Allie
|
And I couldn't forget if I try.
|
|
She lives far away ov'er the mountains
|
Where the little birds sing on the trees
|
And the cabins are covered with ivy
|
And my Allie is waiting for me.
|
|
It's over, it's over the mountains
|
Where the little birds sing on the trees
|
And the cabins are covered with ivy
|
And my Allie is waiting for me.
|
|
The day I bid goodbye to Allie
|
That day I will never forget
|
For the tears bubbled up from their slumber
|
I fancied if I've seen them yet.
|
|
They looked like the pearls from the ocean
|
As she wept her tale of love
|
And she said my dear boy, don't forget me
|
Till we meet here again or above.
|
It's over, it's over the mountains
|
Where the little birds sing on the trees
|
And the cabins are covered with ivy
|
And my Allie is waiting for me.
