I was wondering if anyone might remember this Eddy Arnold song, The Kentuckian Song--Eddy Arnold (Written by Irving Gordon) Enjoy!
Gary/Louisville

I see my darling in each ray of summer sunlight
I see my darling in the leaves that fall
I see her walking in the rainy April sadness
And hear her name in every bluebird call

I've told the possum in the gum tree the raccoon on the ground
Told everyone but my darling of the happiness I've found
my heart would cry more than the weeping willow tree
If my darling and her heart were not for me

I've told the possum in the gum tree the raccoon on the ground
Told everyone but my darling of the happiness I've found
my heart would cry more than the weeping willow tree
If my darling and her heart were not for me

I do!!!! I always loved Eddy Arnold and he was one of my hubby's favorites. We have a very dear friend here in Nashville who was a close friend of Eddy's. He visited him regularly and was a pall bearer at his funeral.

Thanks for that website. I am a song collector as everyone who knows me personally here at DG will tell you.

I think that Elena has the lyrics to every song that has been published!! It's hard to stump her. Jo

Have you all seen the T.V. movie called "The Songcatcher?" This was about a woman a long time ago that went into the wilds of Appalachia and recorded songs on records that would be long lost today if she hadn't.

Jo, you know my obcession with songs. Between plants and songs it would be hard to know which one is my favorite.

Woodspirit, is that a true story? I haven't seen it but would love to. Wonder if it is out on video?

This is one of my favorite sites for folk music. I love it and
you will also.
