الأغاني: Doyle Lawson. Johnny And Sally.

Johnny and Sally grew up in the mountains
On opposite sides of the valley
She thought the sun rose and set in his brown eyes
And Johnny loved no one but Sally

But for 35 years their families had quarreled
Between them no words had been spoken
But the first time that Johnny laid eyes on fair Sally
The long silence finally was broken

He said meet me tonight when the moon lights the valley
And linger with me for a while
The love in their hearts started growing like flowers
Blooming unseen in the wild

Season to season love grew in the shadows
No matter that it was forbidden
They longed for the day they could walk in the sunshine
And no longer keep their love hidden

He said meet me tonight when the moon lights the valley
And we?ll steal away and be wed
Altho? your daddy might wish he could kill me
Without you I?d rather be dead

Now you?ve heard the story of Johnny and Sally
And I?ve got just one thing to say
If not for the courage of Johnny and Sally
I wouldn?t be here today

Daddy said meet me tonight when the moon lights the valley
And linger with me for a while
The love in their hearts started growing like flowers
Blooming unseen in the wild
