Bing Crosby - On Top Of Old Smokey lyrics

On top of old smokey All covered with snow I lost my true lover From a courtin' too slow For courtin's a pleasure And parting is grief And a false-hearted lover Is worse than a thief A thief will just rob you (A thief will just rob you) And he'll take what you have (And take what you have) But a false-hearted lover (A false-hearted lover) Will lead you to the grave (Lead you to the grave) They'll hug you and kiss you (They'll hug you and kiss you) And tell you more lies (And tell you more lies) Than cross ties on the railroad (Cross ties on the railroad) Or the stars in the sky (Or stars in the sky) On top of old smokey All covered with snow I lost my true lover From a courtin' too slow
