GOn October CTwenty-GThird, Nineteen CSeventy-GEight
I Clost a Gloved one and I confess I Dcried
In the Gjoyous Ccele-Gbration of the Clady and her music
There were Gtears in the CHolston GRiver
When DMaybelle Carter Gdied G7
Then Cwalking down that river road
I saw Gcrystal tear-shaped droplets
Silver beads of love sparklin' on the river Dside
And I'll Gjust bet they turn to diamonds
For the Clove that was behind 'em
There were Gtears in the CHolston GRiver
When DMother Maybelle Gdied
Then on GJanu-Cary G Eighth, Nineteen-CSeventy-Nine
We lost CSara GCarter
And the pain was multi-Dplied
Down be-Glow that Cold Clinch GMountain
We Claid her at Mount Vernon
There were Gtears in the CHolston GRiver
When DSara Carter Gdied G7
Then Cwalking down that river road
I Gsaw crystal tear-shaped droplets
Silver beads of love sparklin' on the river-Dside
And I'll just Gbet they turn to diamonds
For the Clove that was behind 'em
There were Gtears in the CHolston GRiver
When DMaybelle & Sara Gdied
There were Gtears in the CHolston GRiver
When Mother CMaybelle and GSara DCarter Gdied
