Lyrics The Carter Family – Over The Garden Wall
Text:
My love stood under a walnut tree
Over the garden wall
She whispered and said she’d be true to me
Over the garden wall
She has beautiful eyes and beautiful hair
She’s not very tall so she stood in a chair
Many a time I’ve kissed her there
Over the garden wall
She’s not very tall so she stood in a chair
Many a time I’ve kissed her there
Over the garden wall
Over the garden wall
The sweetest girl of all
There never were yet such eyes of jet
And you can bet I’ll never forget
The night our lips in kisses met
Over the garden wall
There’s always a will, there’s always a way
Over the garden wall
There’s always the night as well as the day
Over the garden wall
We hadn’t much money, but weddings were cheap
So while the old feller was snoring asleep
With a lad and ladder she managed to creep
Over the garden wall
Over the garden wall
The sweetest girl of all
There never were yet such eyes of jet
And you can bet I’ll never forget
The night our lips in kisses met
Over the garden wall
Over the garden wall
The sweetest girl of all
There never were yet such eyes of jet
And you can bet I’ll never forget
The night our lips in kisses met
Over the garden wall
And you can bet I’ll never forget
The night our lips in kisses met
Over the garden wall
