Zachary Lucky - Sun's Coming Up

Wake up my dear oh the sun's coming up
Over them hills and there's coffee in your cup
And I want to know what you're dreaming of
Well wake up my dear oh the sun's coming up
Last night in my dream we were far far away
I was a soldier and you were a maid
We worked like hell for the money we made
Last night in my dream we were far far away
I courted you gently and I courted you true
A pretty fair maiden and me that makes two
I swore that I would always love you
I courted you gently and I courted you true
You and me and a baby made three
A beautiful boy - oh a family we would be
His second year I would never see
You and me and a baby made three
Then one day they came roving through town
Said all you poor soldiers gather around
It's time to fight at the trumpets sound
One day they came roving through town
We went to war and death did we find
It was many a poor boy that did sure die
And I thought of you as I laid there and cried
We went to war and death did we find
It pains me to think if that were all true
To no longer love or hold you
I awoke with the sun it was shining through
It pains me to think if that were all true
So wake up my dear oh the sun's coming up
Over them hills and there's coffee in your cup
And I want to know what you're dreaming of
Wake up my dear oh the sun's coming up
Wake up my dear oh the sun's coming up
