Wildwood flower Oh I'll twine with my mingles and waving black hair With the roses so red and the lilies so fair And the mirtles so bright with the emerald dew The pale and the leader and eyes look like blue I will dance I will sing and my laugh shall be gay I will charm every heart in each crown I will sway When I woke from my dreaming my idols were clay All portions of love had all blown away Oh he taught me to love him and promised to love And to cherish me over all others above How my heart is now wondering no misery can tell He's left me no warning no words of farewell Oh he taught me to love him and call me his flower That was blooming to cheer him through life's dreary hour Oh I long to see him and regret the dark hour He's gone and neglected his pale wildwood flower Jukebox Blues I walked into a honkey tonkey just the other day I droped a nickle in the juke box just to hear it play I didnt have no tune in mind, I didnt wait to choose Just droped a nickle in the slot and I played the juke box blues Theres a guy in there with an old tin horn And a feller on an old banjo, and the man of the fiddle He wasn't no slouch he could really drag that bow Well, the man on the fiddle he must have got tired I didnt hear him say, 'cause he cut loose on the steel guitar And the juke box ran away And I've herd something going strong It must have been a drum It gave that song a solid beat Boy it was goin' some I walked into a honkey tonkey just the other day I droped a nickle in the juke box just to hear it play I didnt have no tune in mind, I didnt wait to choose Just droped a nickle in the slot and I played the juke box blues I've played alot of juke boxes, most everyone in town That's the first tune I've ever heard That can make one night surround Play the juke box blues, such a rythum I've never heard I danced out both of my shoes
