here's the next one, this time I'm much less confident (not only where I have marked ?), so go on and correct me, please.Wolfgang
In 1795
Well I come into this country
in 1795
considered myself lucky
(then even?) be alive
walked into the dooryard
and knocked upon the door
the girl there said: (Come on you, boy?)
don't you ramble no more.Well I took this girl and married her
made the girl my wife,
considered myself luckier
than ever in my life.
The love that grew between us
made the sun, the moon to shine
and the stars sang a banjo tune
when she said that she'd be mine. ^^
