Here's one of those bluegrass "death 'n dying" songs".

Bluebonnet Blooming In The Field (Larry W. Jones 05/18/2007) (song#4658)

The Texas sun was sinking low on the Brazos at Waco
My darling love was going away to Tennessee
It was in the month of May with bluebonnets on display
I held her in my arms and told her tenderly

You're my bluebonnet blooming in the field
A blossom blooming for only me
Darling, my love for you is forever sealed
A blossom blooming for only me

One day a letter arrived from Tennessee
That said my bluebonnet darling had died
Great was the shock that came over me
As I read her words related to me inside

I'm your bluebonnet blooming in the field
A blossom blooming for only you
Darling, my love for you is forever sealed
A blossom blooming for only you

- instrumental -

Now she'll never return to me from Tennessee
She has passed from this life and gone from me
In the month of May with bluebonnets on display
I remember the words my darling had to say

I'm your bluebonnet blooming in the field
A blossom blooming for only you
Darling, my love for you is forever sealed
A blossom blooming for only you

I'm your bluebonnet blooming in the field
A blossom blooming for only you
