Reading a book on this basically unknown 50’s artist, and tracking cover artists on YouTube.
In between two tall mountains There's a place they call Lonesome Don't see why they call it Lonesome I'm never lonesome when I go there See that bird sitting on my window sill Well he's singing whippoorwill all the night through See that brook running by my kitchen door Well it couldn't talk no more if it was you Up that tree there's sort of a squirrel thing Sounds just like we did when we were quarreling In the yard I keep a pig or two They drop in for dinner like you used to do I don't stand in the need of company With everything I see talking like you Up that tree there's sort of a squirrel thing Sounds just like we did when we were quarreling You may think you left me all alone But I can hear you talk without a telephone I don't stand in the need of company With everything I see talking like you See that bird sitting on my window sill Well he's singing whippoorwill all the night through Just whippoorwill, all the night through In between two tall mountains There's a place they call Lonesome Don't see why they call it Lonesome I'm never lonesome, now I live there
Honeybee Go and tell a starling To go and tell my darling To hurry home to me Honeybee Say I'm sad and lonely And say I'm wishing only His loving smile to see We had a fight and he's been gone An hour by the clock upon the shelf He was right but I'm too proud To go and tell him so myself So honeybee Go and tell a starling To go and tell my darling To hurry home to me
This letter comes from fortune's child You see no other name is signed You may recall my heart was wild And to your love I only smiled. We never could go hand in hand So to your love I only smiled And you would never understand That I was fortune's only child You used to ask me what I wanted I said the world, and time, and space My heart was wild My head was haunted With every new and smiling face. I said I'd wait til fortune smiled I said I'd never change my mind This letter comes from fortune's child But when was fortune ever kind?
