Lemon Tree - The Kingston Trio[00:00:00]
Written by:Will Holt[00:00:05]
When I was just a little boy[00:00:10]
My father said to me[00:00:12]
Come here and learn a lesson from the lovely lemon tree[00:00:14]
My son it's most important[00:00:18]
My father said to me[00:00:21]
To put your faith in what you feel[00:00:23]
And not in what you see[00:00:25]
Lemon tree[00:00:27]
Very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet[00:00:28]
But the fruit of the poor[00:00:31]
Lemon is a thing one cannot eat[00:00:33]
Lemon tree[00:00:36]
Very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet[00:00:37]
But the fruit of the poor[00:00:40]
Lemon is a thing one cannot eat[00:00:41]
Beneath that lemon tree one day[00:00:47]
My love and I did lie[00:00:49]
A girl so sweet that when she smiled[00:00:51]
The sun rose in the sky[00:00:53]
We passed the summer lost in love beneath the lemon tree[00:00:55]
The music of her laughter hid my father's words from me[00:00:59]
Lemon tree very pretty[00:01:03]
And the lemon flower is sweet[00:01:06]
But the fruit of the poor[00:01:08]
Lemon is a thing one cannot eat[00:01:09]
Lemon tree very pretty[00:01:12]
And the lemon flower is sweet[00:01:14]
But the fruit of the poor[00:01:16]
Lemon is a thing one cannot eat[00:01:18]
One day she left without a word[00:01:30]
She took away the sun[00:01:33]
And in the dark she left behind[00:01:35]
I knew what she had done[00:01:37]
She left me for another[00:01:39]
It's a common tale but true[00:01:41]
A sadder man but wiser now[00:01:43]
I sing these words to you[00:01:45]
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet[00:01:47]
But the fruit of the poor[00:01:51]
Lemon is a thing one cannot eat[00:01:53]
Lemon tree very pretty[00:01:56]
And the lemon flower is sweet[00:01:58]
But the fruit of the poor[00:02:00]
Lemon is a thing one cannot eat[00:02:01]
