Chickashay Lyrics

[00:05.59] In old Oklahoma, right close to a chickashay
[00:11.06] The high shared he come and took me away
[00:17.34] Down in the valley over the dale
[00:21.88] I see Shawnee crying from my lonely self
[00:28.27] Well, I hear love birds a-singin', ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-dee
[00:34.75] My heart's a-strangin', black and lonely
[00:39.96] Make plans, my little lover, for our wedding day
[00:45.97] I'll be home before you miss me, I'll be home to stay
[00:50.55] Well, it's been a year today since they put me away
[00:57.07] I'm comin' home, never alone, yes, I'll be home today
[01:08.12] I'm bustin' rocks with a number nine schlage
[01:13.09] The cardman is watchin' me from the top of the ledge
[01:18.83] All I get to eat is water and bread
[01:24.15] I'm missin' your kissing, my sweet little Shawnee
[01:34.34] Well, I hear love birds a-singin', ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-dee
[01:40.79] My heart's a-strangin', black and lonely
[01:46.13] Make plans, my little lover, for our wedding day
[01:52.12] I'll be home before you miss me, I'll be home to stay
[01:58.04] Well, I hear love birds a-singin', singin', singin' singin' singin'
[02:06.70]
