Redbuds 03:15
I’ll be gone long, I’ll be going away soon I missed you in May, but we had a good June I’ll be gone, all the fall, I’ll be gone the winter all But I’ll be back by the redbud’s bloom All the old folks are dead, and the grownups are old I look in the mirror and my blood runs cold Life is short, the waiting is long I’m older now than the start of this song The May apples sway, the Junebugs will fly Corn’s knee high by the fourth of July Driving through town, not feeling very well Didn’t miss lilacs until I remembered the smell I’ll be gone long, I’ll be going away soon I missed you in May, but we had a good June I’ll be gone, all the fall, I’ll be gone the winter all But I’ll be back by the redbud’s bloom I’ll be gone long, I’ll be going away soon I missed you in May, but we had a good June I’ll be gone, all the fall, I’ll be gone the winter all But I’ll be back by the redbud’s bloom
