Me And The Wildwood Rose

Verse: 1 In my Grandma's house her children would sing Guitars a twangin' and their laughter would ring I was little but I was the biggest kid I wanted to do what the grown-ups did In a big shiny car we'd head down the road To sing for the miners who brought out the coal Many a time I slept on the floorboard cold On a quilt with my little sister The Wildwood Rose And if I could change a thing in this world I'd go back to the days When Grandma and her girls Were singing sweet and low For me and the Wildwood Rose Verse: 2 We'd be way down the road by the break of dawn Biscuits and gravy and a truck stop song In a world all my own I saw what I saw And in the rear view mirror I'd get a wink from my Grandma And if I could change a thing in this world I'd go back to the days When Grandma and her girls Were singing sweet and low For me and the Wildwood Rose Bridge A lee a o a lee a o o lay dee who A lee o lay dee Verse: 3 Oh I'll always remember the day that she died My daddy he called me and he started to cry I rode on an airplane with all of my pain My tears would not stop We stood in a circle and sang And if I could change a thing in this world I'd go back to the days When Grandma and her girls Were singing sweet and low For me and the Wildwood Rose For me and the Wildwood Rose For me and the Wildwood Rose For me and the Wildwood Rose Refrain A lee a o A lee a o lay dee who
