Vārdi: Everybodyfields, The. Pairlee.

pairlee was a bastard child

born in east tennessee

mama left her one day, granddaddy took her away



grandpa just tended his mill

and he planted the corn in the field

pairlee works by his side, they sing up to the sky



pairlee, pairlee

died under an apple tree

one cold winter's night, the frost took her life



they'd walk through the woods at night

holding hands, he'd let her lead

dreamt of days without corn, prayed with hands that were worn



there's something about them woods

a child can never know

where the old fallen leaves go when they float down the stream



pairlee, pairlee

died under an apple tree

one cold winter's night, the frost took her life



and grandpa, he loved pairlee

but his mind was getting so old

one night beneath that tree, pairlee fell asleep



and grandpa just wandered around

in the dark down by the creek

it was mid december when her forgot her



pairlee, pairlee

died under an apple tree

one cold winter's night, the frost took her life



now pa just sits in his yard

no corn to tend in his mill

'neath that tree he finds shade, right where pairlee laid
