Civil War Story Lyrics by Strawberry Flats

2022

[Verse 1]
My true love wrote me a letter
It will not be long 'fore he comes home
He's been off in war fighting
Three years is such a while to be alone
[Chorus]
Hey there, hey darlin’
I never thought that you’d come back to me
[Verse 2]
Oh my dear friend Missy
You can see him looking there so fine
Once I held him in my arms
But now he is just a friend of mine
Yeah there were days when I knew him
Therе were days when I knеw him well
If you have any false ideas
Remember that you promised not to tell
[Chorus]
Hey there, hey darlin’
I never thought that you’d come back to me
[Bridge]
Put a dress on, put a dress on
Brush my hair til it runs straight and free
Little things they mean so much
Now that my love is coming back to me
[Verse 3]
Then that night I heard a-knockin’
And I ran for my love oh to see
But it was just a man with a letter in his hand
It said my love would not come back to me
[Verse 4]
The first time I went wayward
I knew it might come to this
It may not be all I dreamed
But that's just the way that it is
[Chorus]
Hey there, hey darlin’
I never thought that you’d come back to me
