I posted the original Eric Anderson lyrics in this thread, but there's a slightly different Brothers Four version at http://www.toplyrics.net/artist_b/brothers_four_the_lyrics.html, the site SINSULL linked to. The lyrics are of questionable literacy, but I don't have the Brothers Four recording so I won't attempt to correct it. I humbly submit that my Eric Anderson transcription is far more literate - but it's probably not correct, either....

Come to My Bedside
(Eric Andersen - fair-quality Brothers Four transcription)

Come to my bedside, my darlin'
Come over here and gently close the door
Lay your body soft and close beside me
And drop your petticoat upon the floor

I've waited for you, oh such a long time
I plan a plan on every new day born
Words cannot express one thing I'm sure of
That it's in my loving arms where you belong

Your breast have told my ear life's golden secrets
Your back has shown my fingers endless roads
Your lips have whispered wisdom that is timeless
'Bout life and death and things I never know

Come to my bedside, my darlin'
Come over here and gently close the door
Lay your body soft and close beside me
And drop your petticoat upon the floor

Your eyes are bluer than the mountain waters
Your hair is flowin' dark and flowin' long
You skin has more gold than a morning sunrise
And it's softer than the breeze of the summer's Dawn

So come to my bedside, my darlin'
Come over here and gently close the door
Lay your body soft and close beside me
And drop your petticoat upon the floor...
