Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Julie Ann or Julianne
These are the lyrics I remember. I don't know the source.

JULIE ANNE

The shady side of sunny mountain
That's the place it all began.
There once lived the fairest maiden,
And her name was Julie Anne.

chorus
Have you seen her in the moonlight,
Silver rings upon her hands
Now she wears a crown of sorrow,
And her name was Julie Anne.

Julie's beau was tall and handsome
Just a poor boy with treasures few,
Still he promised rings of silver,
For to prove his love was true.

Out he rode across the mountain,
When the fields were wet with dew
But instead he went a ramblin'
And a courtin' Jenny Lou.

The cabin door was standin' open
On that wild and windy night
And the hound dog he lay a dyin'
In the gloomy candle light.

They found a shattered empty rifle
And the shawl she used to wear,
But they never found miss Julie
They never found the hungry bear.
