Lily Of The Valley

I grew up in Alabama in a valley I called home

And I learned to love sweet lily from the start

But I had to do my duty yes I had to do my part

But the thought of leaving really breaks my heart

If this war could just be over and I could go back home

If I could hold and kiss her once again

Then if I should die tomorrow after loving her tonight

Then I would not feel my life had been in vain

Cause she's my lily of the valley and I want her for my wife

She's my lily of the valley I guess I've loved lily almost all my life all my life
