paroles de chanson There in the Greenbriar - Sky

There once was a tale of an old country man
And Cindy his beautiful daughter
He found her one day with the shoemaker's son
And there in the greenbriar shot her
And there in the greenbriar shot her

Now Cindy was fair as the day it is long
Her loveliness never was shared
'Twas kept in a cave in the back of her mind
Her father imprisoned it there
He kept it imprisoned up there

The shoemaker's son was the kind, it is said
Who smoked up the weeds in the field
And he danced with the day and made love with the night
And was known to say nothing is real
He was known to say nothing is real

The shoemaker's son fell in love with our dear
And he told her he wanted to wed
But he soon felt cold steel at the back of his ear
'Twas a gun pointed right at his head

The old man looked down at the shoemaker boy
For he knew why the young man had come
He said that his daughter would marry a pig
'Fore she'd marry a shoemaker's son
'Fore she'd marry a shoemaker's son

There once was a tale of an old country man
And Cindy his beautiful daughter
He found her one day with the shoemaker's son
And there in the greenbriar shot her
And there in the greenbriar shot her
