APPALACHIAN ROUND (3 parts)
Take me back, oh hills I love,
Lift me from this lonely bed,
*Light my way with stars above,
Curl soft winds about my head,
Wash my feet in crystal streams,
Cradle my arms in boughs of oak,
Breathe the scent of pine for dreams,
Wrap me tight in earthen cloak.

Take thy flight,
High above the sorrow of this sad night.

Shall I ever see thee red,
I will marry at thy will, sire,
At thy will.
The winds in the willows,
Sighs like a solitary soul alone.
