Maple On The Hill

Lyrics

In a quiet country village stood a Maple On The Hill
 Where I sat with my Geneva long ago
 As the stars were shining brightly we could hear the whippoorwill
 As we sat beneath that Maple On The Hill
 Fiddle Solo
 We would sing love songs together while the birds had gone to rest
 We would listen to the murmur o'er the hill
 Will you love me little darling as you did those starry nights
 As we sat beneath that Maple On The Hill
 guitar solo
 Don't forget me, little darling when they lay me down to die
 Just one little wish, darling that I pray
 As you linger there in sadness thinking darling, of the past
 Lay your teardrops kiss the flowers on my grave
 banjo solo
 I will soon be with the angels on that bright and peaceful shore
 Even now I hear them coming o'er the hill
 So goodbye my little darling, it is time for us to part
 I must leave you and that Maple On The Hill
