The Chestnut Tree

The Chestnut Tree - Glenn Miller Orchestra

Underneath the spreading chestnut tree

I loved him and he loved me

There I used to sit up on his knee

Beneath the spreading chestnut tree

There beneath the boughs we used to meet

All his kisses were so sweet

All the little birdies went tweet tweet

Beneath the spreading chestnut tree

I said I love you and there ain't no if is or but is

He said I love you and the blacksmith shouted chestnut

Underneath the spreading chestnut tree

There he said he'd marry me

Now you ought a see our family

Beneath the spreading chestnut tree

There beneath the boughs we used to meet

All his kisses were so sweet

All the little birdies went tweet tweet

Beneath the spreading chestnut tree

Underneath the spreading chestnut tree

There he said he'd marry me

Now you ought a see our family

Beneath the spreading chestnut tree
