Hank Snow - Answer To The Blue Velvet Band слова песни
Written and recorded by Hank Snow(spoken)Well howdy boys, howdy, man, man it sure seems like a long time since I last rode down this old trail. How ya all anyhow?Fellas, you see, I still have this old cigar box with me. Yes Sir!And better yet, all the boys out here at the R.K. Ranch are singin`a new song now. Hope you like it because it`s my answer toThe Blue Velvet Band. It goes like this.By and old willow tree in the churchyardOn the banks of the old Rio GrandeLies a loved one who died broken heartedShe was known as the Blue Velvet BandShe was called by the angels up yonderAs the dew kissed the pale summer roseAs we stood there in silence, disheartedThese words to her lover did goDear Jack, you mistrusted your darlingYou said that my love wasn`t trueYou`ve roamed o`er the wide open spacesBut my thoughts, they were always of youNow, my last wish was once more to see youBut they say you`re in some foreign landYou`re forgiveness is in this last messageFrom your heartbroken Blue Velvet BandFar away o`er the lone western prairieHer message sped fast o`er the wayTo the side of a bed where her cowboyWas grieving his life fast awayPlease grant a last wish, boys, and lay meOut West on that old Rio GrandeNeath that old willow tree in the churchyardBy my sweetheart, the Blue Velvet Band
