Subject: Lyr Add: JULIANNE
JULIANNE

The shady side of sunny mountain,
that's the place it all began
There once lived the fairest maiden,
and her name was Julianne,
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

-Chorus-

Have you seen her in the moonlight,
Silver Rings are on her hands,
Still she wears a crown of sorrows
and her name, and her name
is Julianne

Wake me early in the Morning,
ere the birds began to to sing,
I'll get silver from the mountians
and I'll fashion ye a ring.
Off he rode across the mountains,
ere the fields were damp with dew.
But instead he went around 'em
and a'courting, courting Betty Sue

-Chorus-

The cabin door was standing open,
on that wild and windy night.
And the hound dog, he lay a'dyin,
in the gloomy candlelight.
They found a shattered, empty rifle,
and the shawl she used to wear,
But they never found Julie,
and they never found, they never found
that Hungry Bear!

-Chorus-
