Amber Tresses Tied In Blue - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
AMBER TRESSES TIED IN BLUE. 
Far away in sunny meadows, where the merry sunbeams played. Oft I lingered 'mid the clover, singing to a village maid; She was fairer than the fairest, ever faithful, fond and true, And the wore beneath a bonnet amber tresses tied In blue. 
Chorus. She was fairer than the fairest, ever faithful, fond and true. And she wore beneath a bonnet amber tresses tied in blue. 
Ere the Summer days departed, we had made a solemn vow, And I never, never wearied kissing her sweet cheek and brow; She was dearer than the dearest, pure as drops of morning dew. And adown her neck was hanging amber tresses tied In blue.-Chorus. 
'Twas decreed that fate should part as err the leaves of Autumn fell. And two loving hearts were severed that had loved each other well; She was all I had to cherish-she has bade a last adieu-And I see in every vision amber tresses tied in blue. -Chorus.
