Marty Robbins - Lily Of The Valley lyrics

rate me

I grew up in Alabama in a valley I called home<br />

And I learned to love sweet Lilly from the start<br />

But I had to do my duty, yes I had to do my part<br />

But the thought of leavin' Lilly breaks my heart<br />

<br />

If this war could just be over and I could go back home<br />

If I could hold and kiss her once again<br />

Then if I should die tomorrow after lovin' her tonight<br />

Then I would not feel my life had been in vain<br />

<br />

'Cause she's my Lilly of the valley<br />

And I want her for my wife<br />

She's my Lilly of the valley<br />

I guess I've loved Lilly almost all my life<br />

All my life
