Well now, I`ve gotta girl

A-sweet sixteen

Her mother wouldn`t listen

To her dreams



I know she was a-dreamin`

She dreamed them old southern dreams

She was the dreamest girl

The dreamest girl I most ever seen



Now, she dreamed I was kissin` her

A-down by the mill

She`d dream that she`d taken me from

The girl on the hill



I know she was a dreamer, now

She dreamed them old southern dreams

She was the dreamest girl

The dreamest girl I most ever seen, yeah



(harmonica & instrumental)



Now she dreamin` I was kissin` her

Hold her close to my breast

She told that much a-dream, but

She wouldn`t tell the rest



I know she was a dreamer, now

She dreamed them old southern dreams

She was the dreamest girl

The dreamest girl I most ever seen



Well, she know`d about lovin`

From huggin` on down

She was the dreamest girl

From miles around



I know she was a dreamer

She dreamed them old southern dreams, yeah

She was a dreamest girl

The dreamest girl I most ever seen



Well, she tried to tell her mother

A-what she did

She talked so much

She couldn`t hardly l keep it hid



An I know she was a dearmer

She dreamed them old southern dreams

She was the dreamest girl

The dreamest girl I most ever seen.



(harmonica & instrumental to end)
