Tom Paxton - My Lady's A Wild Flying Dove Lyrics






Some ladies are foolish
Some ladies are gay
Some ladies are comely
Some live while they may

My lady's a wild flying dove
My lady is wine
She whispers each evening
She's mine, mine, mine

She likes pretty pictures
She loves singing birds
She'll watch them for hours
But I see only her

She tells me she's learning
Just how full her cup can be
She asks me to help her
But I know, she's teaching me

    The first piece of music I learned to finger pick too. Not, if I may add, in the class of Tom Paxton. Sublime as previously stated.

  14. T.... ....

    There's not enough original Tom Paxton on Youtube. I wish the whole of this album was on here, and others. His guitar playing is so sublime it takes you places you didn't even know you wanted to go.

    T.... ....

    For my darling wife miss you so much Dek

    One of the greatest albums ever. Ramblin Boy, The Last Thing on My MInd, Can't Help But Wonder Where I'm Bound, What Did You Learn in School Today and many more.
