Eulalee came down from the hills
to the square of the southern town
Eulalee was there to shop
to buy her wedding gown.
Eulalee are you still the sainted daughter
that some other holds in his heart
Eulalee can you live without the other
if he should soon depart?
Eulalee found white with veil and train
a life’s savings she did pay
Eulalee carefully packed her wedding gown
back to the hills went she.
Eulalee are you still the sainted daughter
that some other holds in his heart
Eulalee can you live without the other
if he should soon depart?
Eulalee did plan her wedding
invitations went to all but one
Eulalee set the date of ceremony
and paid the parson for the vows.
Eulalee are you still the sainted daughter
that some other holds in his heart
Eulalee can you live without the other
if he should soon depart?
Eulalee did make all the preparation
for what would be the big day
Eulalee found in the church waiting
all those she hadn't wished to see.
Eulalee are you still the sainted daughter
that some other holds in his heart
Eulalee can you live without the other
if he should soon depart?
Eulalee would have stood forever
had the parson the patience of Job
Eulalee went without resistance
with her daddy someone had called.
Eulalee are you still the sainted daughter
that some other holds in his heart
Eulalee can you live without the other
if he should soon depart?
Eulalee you should have told me
said her father but she did not hear
Eulalee’s mind was on another
though he was not as near.
Eulalee are you still the sainted daughter
that some other holds in his heart
Eulalee can you live without the other
if he should soon depart?
