Wayside Tavern Songtext
von Jerry Douglas and Peter Rowan

Wayside Tavern
Winter winds wining low, snow covered ground
The midnight skies as black as ink
Snowflakes like stars falling down
Wayside tavern window light beckons unto me
Tarry by the hearthside bright and seek good company.

I stepped in to join the din so carefree and so loud
Just to lose old Mr Blues and mingle with the crowd.


Bluelight glows were the whisky flows in amber down my glass
Burns my lips like your passionate kiss I can′t let you pass
The fiddles play loves melody, call us to the dance
And your eyes like distance stars embrace me in your trance.
Ch
Morning sun, new fallen snow, your warm within my arms
Watching our breath in frosty air, no strangers to loves charms
Anytime you want me, I'll find a way to you, by the wayside tavern
Door with my old friend Mr Blue.
Ch
