Chattahoochee
From the corner of Union City she flows South Easterly
Through the Southern Appalachian mountains we stood in reverie
We took our vows together pledging love and loyalty
The moon and stars bore witness
You got down on bended knee
On the banks of the Chattahoochee
You kissed me one last time
Said you'd rather die that lose me
Said forever you'd be mine
And the sound of your voice soothed me
Like a deep and soulful lullaby
Your arms reached around and through me
But you never said goodbye
I never saw it coming and I thank God for that
For one perfect Summer evening I believed in what we had
But fate is fierce and fickle her unforgiving hand
Took away all that you gave me
Like the ocean takes the sand
On the banks of the Chattahoochee
You kissed me one last time
Said you'd rather die that lose me
Said forever you'd be mine
And the sound of your voice soothed me
Like a deep and soulful lullaby
Your arms reached around and through me
But you never said goodbye
The wind it was our preacher
The trees our family
I vowed to walk beside you
And you vowed to shelter me shelter me
On the banks of the Chattahoochee
You kissed me one last time
Said you'd rather die that lose me
Said forever you'd be mine
And the sound of your voice soothed me
Like a deep and soulful lullaby
Your arms reached around and through me
But you never said goodbye
No you never said goodbye
Through the Southern Appalachian mountains we stood in reverie
We took our vows together pledging love and loyalty
The moon and stars bore witness
You got down on bended knee
On the banks of the Chattahoochee
You kissed me one last time
Said you'd rather die that lose me
Said forever you'd be mine
And the sound of your voice soothed me
Like a deep and soulful lullaby
Your arms reached around and through me
But you never said goodbye
I never saw it coming and I thank God for that
For one perfect Summer evening I believed in what we had
But fate is fierce and fickle her unforgiving hand
Took away all that you gave me
Like the ocean takes the sand
On the banks of the Chattahoochee
You kissed me one last time
Said you'd rather die that lose me
Said forever you'd be mine
And the sound of your voice soothed me
Like a deep and soulful lullaby
Your arms reached around and through me
But you never said goodbye
The wind it was our preacher
The trees our family
I vowed to walk beside you
And you vowed to shelter me shelter me
On the banks of the Chattahoochee
You kissed me one last time
Said you'd rather die that lose me
Said forever you'd be mine
And the sound of your voice soothed me
Like a deep and soulful lullaby
Your arms reached around and through me
But you never said goodbye
No you never said goodbye
