Lately, I've been thinkin'
How much I miss my lady
Amoreena's in a cornfield
Brightenin' the daybreak
Livin' like a lusty flower
Runnin' through the grass for hours
Rollin' through the hay, oh
Like a puppy, child

And when it rains, the rain falls down
Washin' out the cattle town
And she's far away somewhere
In her eiderdown
And she dreams of crystal streams
Of days gone by when we would lean
Laughing, fit to burst upon each other

I can see you sittin'
Eatin' apples in the evenin'
Fruit juice, flowin' slowly, slowly, slowly
Down the bronze of your body
Livin' like a lusty flower
Runnin' through the grass for hours
Rollin' through the hay, oh
Like a puppy, child

And when it rains, the rain falls down
Washin' out the cattle town
And she's far away somewhere
In her eiderdown
And she dreams of crystal streams
Of days gone by when we would lean
Laughing, fit to burst upon each other

Oh, if only I could nestle
In the cradle of your cabin
My arm's around your shoulder, oh
The window wide and open
While the swallow and the sycamore, whoa
Are playin' in the valley
Oh, I miss you, Amoreena
Like the king bee misses honey

And when it rains, the rain falls down
Washin' out the cattle town
And she's far away somewhere
In her eiderdown
And she dreams of crystal streams
Of days gone by when we would lean
Laughing, fit to burst upon each other

Lately, I've been thinkin'
How much I miss my lady
Amoreena's in a cornfield
Brightenin' the daybreak
Livin' like a lusty flower
Runnin' through the grass for hours
Rollin' through the hay, oh
Like a puppy, like a puppy, child
