Buttermilk Hill
The Weavers
[Verse 1] Here I sit on Buttermilk hill Who can blame me cry my fill And every tear and turn a mill Johnny is gone for a soldier [Verse 2] I sold my rock I sold my reel I even sold my spinning wheel To buy my love a sword of steel Johnny is gone for a soldier [Verse 3] Behold my I loved him so Broke my heart to see him go And only time can heal my wound Johnny is gone for a soldier [Verse 4] Here I sit on Buttermilk hill Who can blame me cry my fill And every tear and turn a mill Johnny is gone for a soldier
