Eddy Arnold - Folk Singer lyrics

rate me

He used to sing his songs to his Sara Jane the folk singer

His songs filled with love made the mountains ring the folk singer

At first Sara Jane was to be his bride

But as his fame grew she was pushed aside

Sweet mountain girl would say goodbye to the folk singer

He let his hair grown long and he dressed in style the folk singer

His voice was pure and the fans went wild for the folk singer

He said Sara Jane was much too plain

So he left her alone as he gained more fame

But sorrow will come like the mountain rain to the folk singer

[ ac.guitar ]

Lavished in glory fortune at his feet the folk singer

Awoke one morning and he could not speak the folk singer

The doctors said his singing days were through

Thousands wept Sara Jane did too

He couldn't sing now his friends were few the folk singer

Sick at heart in the mountains again the folk singer

Now Sara Jane didn't look so plain to the folk singer

Ah the power of love can do strange things

Cause love has made him sing again

Now he sings for his Sara Jane the folk singer

And once again the mountains ring to the folk singer the folk singer

The folk singer the folk singer
