David Rawlings - Lindsey Button Lyrics

David Rawlings Lyrics

"Lindsey Button"

A pretty young girl come down the mountain
Lindsey Button, Lindsey Button
A pretty young girl come down the mountain
A long time ago

Long time ago, long time ago
A pretty young girl come down the mountain
A long time ago

First she'd blush and then she promised
Lindsey Button, Lindsey Button
First she'd blush and then she promised
A long time ago

Long time ago, long time ago
First she'd blush and then she promised
A long time ago

She carved two names in a white oak sapling
Lindsey Button, Lindsey Button
She carved two names in a white oak sapling
A long time ago

Long time ago, long time ago
She carved two names in a white oak sapling
A long time ago

She'd brush her hair, she change the weather
Lindsey Button, Lindsey Button
She'd brush her hair, she change the weather
A long time ago

Long time ago, long time ago
She carved two names in a white oak sapling
A long time ago

She'd turn her head in the congregation
Lindsey Button, Lindsey Button
She'd turn her head in the congregation
A long time ago
Now all are gone and who remembers?
Lindsey Button, Lindsey Button
Now all are gone but this song remembers
A long time ago

Long time ago, long time ago
A pretty young girl come down the mountain
A long time ago
