"Red Daisy" lyrics - BILLY STRINGS

Daisy red daisy growin' on a hill
Sunshine fallin' on her petals so fine

At first when I found you all covered in the dew
The stars had all faded the day was brand new

Daisy red daisy growin' on a hill
Sunshine fallin' on her petals so fine

When the skies are gloomy
And you're covered in the frost
Daisy red daisy I fear my soul is lost

Daisy red daisy growin' on a hill
Sunshine fallin' on her petals so fine

Queen of the springtime
My body's getting old
Winter winds might bind me but
I'll keep you from the cold

Daisy red daisy growin' on a hill
Sunshine fallin' on her petals so fine

One day a passing traveler plucked
You from the ground
Oh how I'll miss you and your crimson crown
