《Tears In The Holston River》歌词

[00:00:00] Tears In The Holston River - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

[00:00:50] On October 23rd 1978

[00:00:59] I lost a loved one and I confess I cried

[00:01:07] In the joyous celebration of the lady and her music

[00:01:14] There were tears in the Holston River

[00:01:18] When Maybelle Carter died

[00:01:23] Then walking down that river road

[00:01:27] I saw crystal tear-shaped droplets

[00:01:31] Silver beads of love sparklin' on the river side

[00:01:39] And I'll just bet they turn to diamonds for the love

[00:01:45] That was behind 'em

[00:01:47] There were tears in the Holston River

[00:01:51] When Mother Maybelle died

[00:02:29] Then on January 8th 1979

[00:02:37] We lost Sara Carter and the pain was multiplied

[00:02:45] Down below that old Clinch Mountain

[00:02:50] We laid her at Mount Vernon

[00:02:53] There were tears in the Holston River

[00:02:57] When Sara Carter died

[00:03:02] Then walking down that river road

[00:03:06] I saw crystal tear-shaped droplets

[00:03:10] Silver beads of love sparklin' in the riverside

[00:03:18] And I'll just bet they turn to diamonds

[00:03:22] For the love that was behind 'em

[00:03:26] There were tears in the Holston River

[00:03:30] When Maybelle and Sara died

[00:03:35] There were tears in the Holston River

[00:03:39] When Mother Maybelle and Sara Carter died
