Amber Tresses 
Amber Tresses 
(A.P. Carter) 
Far away in sunny mountains Where the merry sunbeams play There I wandered through the clover Singing to a village maid
 She was dearer than the dearest
 Ever loving kind and true
 And she wore beneath her bonnet
 Amber tresses tied with blue 
Fate decreed that we be parted E'er the leaves of autumn fell Then two hearts were separated That had loved each other well 
She was all I had to cherish Ever loving kind and true Now I see in every vision Amber tresses tied with blue
