[00:16.89] On top of Old Smokey
[00:17.79] All covered with snow
[00:25.11] I lost my true lover
[00:26.73] Come'a courting too slow...
[00:27.21] A courting's a pleasure
[00:30.39] A parting's a grief
[00:41.73] A false hearted lover
[00:45.48] Is worse than a thief.
[00:48.54] A thief he will rob you
[00:55.56] And take what you have
[00:55.98] A false hearted lover
[00:56.46] Will send you to your grave.
[01:03.15] She'll hug you and kiss you
[01:03.78] And tell you more lies
[01:04.20] Than the cross ties on a railroad
[01:17.01] Or the stars in the skies.

On top of Old Smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
Come'a courting too slow...
A courting's a pleasure
A parting's a grief
A false hearted lover
Is worse than a thief.
A thief he will rob you
And take what you have
A false hearted lover
Will send you to your grave.
She'll hug you and kiss you
And tell you more lies
Than the cross ties on a railroad
Or the stars in the skies.
