I''ve lived with the decent folks in the hills of old Vermont

And I took up with a full grown man, though I was still a kid
G C
And I smile like the sun to think of the loving that we did
F C
He rose each morning and went to work and he kept me with his pay
G
Well, I was making love all night and playing guitar all day
C F C
And I made apple cider and home-made bread, to make the man say grace
G C
In a house that he built by hand, with a warm feet fireplace

The memory is enough for me

Oh baby, I am so afraid to lose the love we found"
