Baez, Joan - Once I Knew A Pretty Girl Lyrics
Once I knew a pretty girl
I loved her as my life
I'd gladly give my heart and hand
To make her my wife
Ooh, to make her my wife
She took me by the hand
She led me to the door
She put her arms around me
Saying, "Please don't come no more"
Ooh, Please, come no more
Well, I'd not been gone
But about six months
When she did complain
And she wrote me a letter
Ooh, Please, come again
So I sent her an answer
Just for to let her know
That no young man should venture
Where once he could not go
Ooh, Where once he could not go.
So come all you young lovers
Take a warning from me
And never hang your affections
On a green, growing tree
Ooh, on a green, growing tree
For the leaves they will wither
Roots will decay
And the beauty of a young girl
Will soon fade away
Ooh, will soon fade away

Absolutely the best!
Her voice is breathtakingly beautiful I love her

Where are you Joan? Come on back and give these poor twerkers an idea what music Talent is. We need you now more than we ever did.
You need to hear Rhiannon Giddens then. She's one of the biggest names in folk music these days. I recommend startin' from the song Julie.
I think she lives in New York City. I say that because she showed up at Occupy Wall Street one day to sing a few songs for the Occupiers.
Last verse is On Top Of Old Smoky

A tribute to Joan Boaz. Thank you very much. Good to have such artists.
When I listen to dylan's songs about his loves i can't help but think he's talking about Baez. She's breath taking.
