But my heart keeps beating faster
Yonder come my lady
And I'm caught one more time
If I pass the rumbling station where the lonesome engine drivers pine
Up on Cyprus Avenue
And I'm conquered in a car seat
In the wind and the rain, darling
And my inside shakes just like a leaf on a tree
Up on Cyprus Avenue
Before that mansion on the hill
Every, every, every time I try to speak
And if I'm, yeah, caught one more time
And my feet can't keep still
And the leaves fall one by one
I think I'll go on by the river with my cherry, cherry wine
Way up on, way up on, way up on
And I'm conquered in a car seat
Baby, baby, baby
So young and bold, fourteen-year old
Not a thing that I can do
I may go crazy
Before that mansion on the hill
Rainbow ribbons in her hair
Every time I try to speak
And all the little girls rhyme something
On the way back home from school
Caught one more time
Nobody, no, no, no, no, nobody stops me from loving you baby
Up on Cyprus Avenue
Keep walking down
Wait a minute, yonder come my lady
And call the autumn time a fool
And I'm looking straight at you
I believe I'll go walking by the railroad with my cherry, cherry wine
She's returning from the fair
Six white horses and a carriage
Rainbow ribbons in her hair
On the way back home from school
My tongue gets tied
I may go crazy
And all the little girls rhyme something
Yeah, my t-tongue gets tied
You keep walking down when the sun shone through the trees
The avenue of trees
