	Story Behind the Song This song was made popular by Mother Maybelle Carter and her family In 1929...Adapted from a poem written by Maude Irving and JP Webster called "I'll Twine Mid The Ringlets" Maybelle Carter took a guitar break on the song that has become a standard for guitar Thanks to A P Carter and Mother Maybelle and the Carter family for givin us this treasure in song Lyrics (Traditional Lyrics) 1. Oh I’ll twine ‘mid the ringlets of my raven black hair The lilies so pale and the roses so fair The myrtle so bright with an emerald hue And the pale aronatus with eyes of bright blue 2. I’ll sing and I’ll dance, my laugh shall be gay I’ll cease this wild weeping, drive sorrow away Though my heart now is breaking, he never shall know That his name made me tremble and my pale cheeks to glow 3. I’ll think of him never , I’ll be wildly gay I’ll charm every heart and the crowd I will sway I’ll live yet to see him regret the dark hour When he won then neglected the frail wildwood flower 4. He taught me to love him , he called me his flower That blossomed for him all the brighter each hour But I woke from my dreaming , my idol was clay My visions of love have all faded away back to song index
