FISHERMAIDS Sung by: James Clifton Ferrell Recorded in Memphis, TN 6/30/63 Click here to listen to the original recording Two maidens set fishing alone. They talked as they fished, And the youngest girl wished For a lover she never had known. The oldest girl said, with a toss of her head, "Cheer up; there's no cause to be blue. Your love you've not met, But he'll come to you yet, For someday, you'll met somebody Who loves you true. Someday, you'll meet somebody Whose heart beats true, For somewhere, somebody's waiting For you, you, you." |
