The Winding Stream Lyrics - Carlene Carter

(A.P.Carter) 

Oh give to me a winding stream 

It must not be too wide 

Where waving leaves from maple trees 

Do meet from either side 

The water must be deep enough 

To float a small canoe 

With no one else but you 

Do not disturb my waking dream 

The splendor of that winding stream 

Flower in my canoe, his eyes they looked me through 

That someone there with golden hair 

Is very much like you

The sparkling trout beneath the bank 

Does leave his hiding place 

Kingfisher from the bough above 

So eager to give to chase 

The spreading branches over head 

The sunlight peeping through 

Reminding me of you
