My brother and I were out huntin' |
| [00:10.58] |
A stray bullet made him its mark |
| [00:14.97] |
I carried him back to the cabin |
| [00:19.13] |
His life nothin' more than a spark |
| [00:23.43] |
He whispered to me very softly |
| [00:27.68] |
"Dear brother,I'm goin' away |
| [00:32.01] |
So listen and come to me closely |
| [00:36.31] |
There's so much that I have to say |
| [00:40.61] |
My sweetheart, her dear name is Sally |
| [00:45.01] |
Her mother and father have died |
| [00:49.42] |
She's waitin' alone in the valley |
| [00:53.81] |
When I left her, oh how she cried |
| [00:58.23] |
I promised to bring her my fortune |
| [01:02.47] |
Return to the valley and wed |
| [01:06.89] |
But I've had a call from my maker |
| [01:11.18] |
So I'll have to go there instead" |
| [01:19.98] |
He gave me the ring he had bought her |
| [01:24.12] |
And told of the plans they had made |
| [01:28.48] |
He spoke of how long she had waited |
| [01:32.83] |
And for his return, how she prayed |
| [01:37.14] |
He gave me a small piece of paper |
| [01:41.59] |
The will he had made for this day |
| [01:45.84] |
I promised to do as he wanted |
| [01:50.18] |
The Good Lord would show me the way |
| [01:54.62] |
He gave me his home in the valley |
| [01:59.08] |
And all of the money he had |
| [02:03.37] |
He asked me to marry hisSally |
| [02:08.05] |
And promise she'd never be sad |
| [02:12.51] |
But once long ago we were rivals |
| [02:16.86] |
For I loved her too from the start |
| [02:21.17] |
I'd made up my mind to stay single |
| [02:25.53] |
For Sally had broken my heart |
| [02:35.49] |
My dear brother went up to heaven |
| [02:39.83] |
And I went to our valley home |
| [02:44.22] |
But Sally had married another |
| [02:48.55] |
So what's left for me but to roam? |
| [02:53.06] |
I pray the good Lord up above me |
| [02:57.47] |
To keep Brother's faith in me still |
| [03:01.92] |
His Sally was fickle, unfaithful |
| [03:06.20] |
That's why I broke my brother's will. |
