Watkins Family Hour - She Left Me Standing on the Mountain

Darling, will you marry me I asked a maiden fair
Turned my back upon her when I looked she wasn't there

She left me standing, standing on the mountain
She left me standing way up there

Where the honeybee are buzzing round the flowers there
That is where she vanished, somewhere in that mountain air

She left me standing, standing on the mountain
She left me standing way up there

I just saw a whippoorwill a-taking to a bear
They were both a-laughing at her giving me the air

She left me standing, standing on the mountain
She left me standing way up there

I would give most anything if once more she'd appear
And tell me that she cared a little for this mountaineer

She left me standing, standing on the mountain
She left me standing way up there

She left me standing, standing on the mountain
She left me standing way up there

She left me standing, standing on the mountain
She left me standing way up there
