about

This is a favourite Carter Family tune. This guitar solo is based on the Flatt and Scruugs version, played on guitar by banjo legend Earl Scruggs.

lyrics

When summertime is gone and leaves begin to fall
You can sing this song and say to one and all:
-You are my flower, blooming on the mountain top so high
You are my flower, blooming there for me

The grass is just as green, the sky is just as blue
The day is just as bright and the birds are singing too
-You are my flower, blooming on the mountain top so high
You are my flower, blooming there for me

So wear a happy smile and life will be worthwhile
Forget the tears but don't forget to smile
-You are my flower, blooming on the mountain top so high
You are my flower, blooming there for me

I’m reminded of another acoustic icon, Gordon Lightfoot.”- TwangTown Magazine ... more
