about

before Bill Monroe, there was modernism...

lyrics

I loved her like a flower
Blooming through the snow
Gave her my love and my heart
But she never let love show

I went out for to ramble
Dark thoughts troubling my mind
Up the trail to her cabin
Never knowing what I might find

April, you're so cruel

She was there with a man
Whose name I did not know
I shot him down through the heart
He fell down in the snow

I wandered down through the forest
Dried blood upon my hands
I hear those hound dogs barking
Just hunting some lonesome man

April, you're so cruel

When I hang from the gallows
Don't say no prayer for
But bury me in the churchyard
Where flowers in snow I can see

April...
