Aura Lee
Jimmy Dean · The Songs We All Love Best [Columbia] [1964]
(George R. Poulton - W.W. Fosdick)
(Aura Lee, Aura Lee
Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swallows in the air.)
As the blackbird in the spring
'Neath the willow tree
He sat and piped I heard him sing
Praising Aura Lee.
Aura Lee, Aura Lee
Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swallows in the air.
--- Instrumental ---
(Aura Lee the birds may flee
the willow's golden hair)
Swing through winter fitfully
On the stormy air.
Aura Lee, Aura Lee
Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swallows in the air...
(Aura Lee, Aura Lee
Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swallows in the air.)
As the blackbird in the spring
'Neath the willow tree
He sat and piped I heard him sing
Praising Aura Lee.
Aura Lee, Aura Lee
Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swallows in the air.
--- Instrumental ---
(Aura Lee the birds may flee
the willow's golden hair)
Swing through winter fitfully
On the stormy air.
Aura Lee, Aura Lee
Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swallows in the air...
