Darling Daisies

(album: The Carter Family Volume 1 - 1927-1934 - 2002)

When first I met my darling Daisy
Down by the garden wall
I was walking along the street so shady
I was going for a twilight call

I'd love to sing and dance among the roses
Down by the garden wall
It's there I'd like to meet my Daisy
When I make a twilight call

She was sleeping in a bed of roses
Dreaming of the by and by
While the little birds around were a-singing
Up above the branches so high

I'd love to sing and dance among the roses
Down by the garden wall
It's there I'd like to meet my Daisy
When I make a twilight call

If you want to see a bright-eyed beauty
Bright as the stars that shine
Just come and go with me some evening
To see that pretty girl of mine

I'd love to sing and dance among the roses
Down by the garden wall
It's there I'd like to meet my Daisy
When I make a twilight call
