she's laying in a vale of tears
laying in a vale of tears
he left her in the valley after 20 years
laying in a vale of tears
he met her when the moon was dry
met her when the moon was dry
they watched a copper sunset
so pretty made him cry
met her when the moon was dry
she said I'll give you babies plenty
said I'll give you babies plenty
but after 20 years she said I must be empty
I can't give you babies plenty
now she's laying in a vale of tears
laying in a vale of tears
he left her in the valley after 20 years
laying in a vale of tears
he waited till the moon was low
waited till the moon was low
nobody heard the gun
nobody saw him go
waited till the moon was low
the angels weep for the innocent
their tears fall down like rain
they're gonna spread their
snow white wings to cover up the stain
and now she's laying in a vale of tears
laying in a vale of tears
he left her in the valley after 20 years
laying in a vale of tears
momma can I please come home?
momma can I please come home?
I can't get no rest here on this bed of stone
momma can I please come home?
momma can I please come home?
