Down On Filbert's Rise Lyrics - Singles - Flatlanders

Up on the double divide 

Down on Filberts Rise 

I chanced to meet a city girl 

With clear blue sparklin' eyes 

I see those eyes 

Down on Filberts Rise 

First morning, I did see her 

Comin' in from the west 

Storm clouds on the mountain 

And tears all down her breast 

Tears a fallin' 

Down on Filberts Rise 

Up on the double divide 

Down on Filberts Rise 

Down on Filberts Rise 

Down on Filberts Rise 

Full well, I knew her sorrow 

Was no concern of mine 

But as I took her in my arms 

My own heart soon did pine 

Hearts in sorrow 

Down on Filberts Rise 

Up on the double divide 

Down on Filberts Rise 

Down on Filberts Rise 

Down on Filberts Rise 

Wild horses and wild rivers 

Run circles around the sun 

I see her in the days and nights 

As they blend into one 

I see her in the moonlight and in the starry skies 

Some times I even swear I see her 

Down on Filberts Rise 

I see those eyes 

Down on Filberts Rise 

I see her in the moonlight and in the starry skies 

Some time I even swear I see her 

Down on filberts rise 

I see those eyes 

Down on filberts rise
