June

Down by the river, soft winds play,

Morning sun breaks through,

There I hear the robins sing,

Calling out for June.

Sweet June, my darlin’ June,

Eyes like the summer sky,

Sweet June, my golden moon,

You’re the reason why.

Barefoot dancing through the field,

Laughin’ wild and free,

Every flower turns her head,

When June walks by the stream.

Sweet June, my darlin’ June,

Eyes like the summer sky,

Sweet June, my golden moon,

You’re the reason why.

Winter fades, and hearts will bloom,

When June comes rollin’ ‘round,

Love grows deep in roots and tune,

Where her sweet voice sounds.

Sweet June, my darlin’ June,

Soft as the morning dew,

Sweet June, the world’s in tune,

Whenever I’m with you.

So if you see that summer girl,

Sing this tune in time,

Sweet June’s name is the sweetest word,

That ever crossed my mind.
