Withered and Died Lyrics

[Chorus]
This cruel old country has driven me down, teased me and lied
I've only sad stories to tell to this town
My dreams have withered and died

[Verse 1]
Once I was bending the tops of the trees
Kind thoughts in my head, kind voices to hear
Then I took up with a girl from the West
They'd run and hide, they'd run and hide
Count one to ten and she's gone like the rest
My dreams have withered and died
If I was a butterfly, lived for a day
I could be free just blowing away
Silver moon sailor and silver moonshine
On the water so wide, water so wide
Slip from the bed of a good friend of mine
My dreams have withered and died
Once I was bending the tops of the trees
Kind thoughts in my head, kind voices to hear

[Chorus]
This cruel country has driven me down, teased me and lied
Teased me and lied
I've only sad stories to tell to this town
My dreams have withered and died [x3]
