"Lowlands" lyrics

"Lowlands"
(feat. Bella Blasko)

I dreamed a dream the other night
Lowlands away, lowlands away, my John

I dreamed I saw my own true love
Lowlands away, lowlands away, my John

Sailing on an angry sea, in the fog of my sleep he came to me
From my lowlands away, my lowlands away, my John

He is gone to Mobile Bay
Lowlands away, lowlands away, my John

Working for a dollar and a half a day
Lowlands away, lowlands away, my John

He is gone to New Orleans to spit in the eye of a hurricane
From my lowlands away, my lowlands away
My lowlands away, lowlands away, my John

I cut off all my long black hair
While my lowlands away, my lowlands away, my lowlands away

No other man will think me fair
Lowlands away, lowlands away, my John

I dreamed a dream the other night
I dreamed I saw my own true love
But my lowlands away, my lowlands away, my lowlands away
My lowlands away, my lowlands away, my lowlands away
But my lowlands away, my lowlands away
My lowlands away, lowlands away, my John
