sideline (bluegrass) - miss charlotte's game lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
miss charlotte taylor was my wife
i vowed to love her all my life
my lovin’ heart adored her so
but my jealous mind just had to know

[verse 2]
she was the prettiest girl around
with hair of gold and eyes of brown
i swore i’d marry her someday
no matter how, i’d find a way

[chorus]
i’d soon be buried on a mountainside
if i can’t have miss charlotte for my bride

[verse 3]
i won her heart one summer bright
we ran away in the pale moonlight
in birmingham, she took my name
and so began her little game

[verse 4]
i built a home on fertile land
i plowed these roads with my bare hands
and while i labored night and day
miss charlotte threw our love away
[verse 5]
i rode to town one august day
and what i saw was hard to say
there stood sheriff sam mcbride
and i saw miss charlotte by his side

[verse 6]
i grabbed my gun in a jealous rage
i buried them in a shallow grave
now in a cell for dawn i wait
on the gallows high, i’ll meet my fate

[chorus]
i’d soon be buried on a mountainside
if i can’t have miss charlotte for my bride
i’d soon be buried on a mountainside
if i can’t have miss charlotte for my bride
