Subject: Lyr Req: Roscoe Holcomb-Weeping Willow
The first verse of this goes
"If I was a little Swallow
Had little wings and I could fly
I'd lie in the arms of my own true lover
_______ ________ _________ _________?
sounds like something about courting but I can't quite make it out. Anybody else know?
The next verse is similar, but is easier to understand
"If i were some little sparrow
had little wings and I could fly
I would lie by the side of my own true lover
and there i'd sit till the day I die"
Thanks!
