Sarie Marais - Sweet Ellie Rhee Lyrics

Sweet Ellie Rhee Lyrics

Sweet Ellie Rhee, so dear to me
Is lost forever more
Our home was down in Tennessee
Before this cruel war
Then carry me back to Tennessee
Back where I long to be
Amid the fields of yellow corn
To my darling Ellie Rhee

Famous quotes containing the words sweet and/or lyrics:

    A poet is no rattlebrain, saying what comes uppermost, and, because he says every thing, saying, at last, something good; but a heart in unison with his time and country. There is nothing whimsical or fantastic in his production, but sweet and sad earnest, freighted with the weightiest convictions, and pointed with the most determined aim which any man or class knows of in his times.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Chad and I always look for deeper meanings; we can analyze Beastie Boys lyrics for hours.
    Amy Stewart (b. 1975)
