  • And ladies and gentlemen

  • Here's the one I need, the inspiration for it

  • Miss June Carter

  • What do you say!

  • If I had you at my mercy

  • There's no telling what I'd do

  • But I'd sit and make you listen

  • For an hour, maybe two

  • And then you'd know I need you

  • Every day that rolls around

  • And your feet would walk on velvet

  • With gold all over the ground

  • You're trails would be downhill

  • A soft breeze at your back

  • A sky full of diamonds

  • And your nights would not be black

  • Yes, you would really love it

  • And if you're ever down

  • I'd give you rows of roses

  • And gold all over the ground

  • I'd pick you up and carry you 'cross every stream I see

  • And I'd bundle you in kindness

  • Until you cling to me

  • We'd sit beneath strong branches

  • My arms would twine around

  • I'd turn your green to emerald

  • And give you gold all over the ground

  • I'd pick you up and carry you 'cross every stream I see

  • And I'd bundle you in kindness

  • Until you cling to me

  • We'd sit beneath strong branches

  • My arms would twine around

  • I'd turn your green to emerald

  • And your skies full diamonds

  • And give you gold all over the ground

  • She's not only a lady who I share my life with

  • But she may have been the person

  • Responsible for me still being alive

  • She and God

And ladies and gentlemen
