Lemon Tree

Lemon Tree - Bobby Bare

When I was just a lad of ten

My father said to me

Come here and take a lesson from the

Lovely lemon tree

Don't put your fate in love my boy my

Father said to me

I fear you'll find that love is like

The lovely lemon tree

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower's sweet

But the fruit of the poor lemon

Is impssible to eat

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower's sweet

But the fruit of the poor lemon

Is impssible to eat

One day beneath the lemon tree

My love and I did lie

A girl so sweet that when she smiles

The star grows in the sky

We passed that summer lost in love

Beneath the lemon tree

The music of her laughter hit

My father's words for me

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower's sweet

But the fruit of the poor lemon

Is impssible to eat

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower's sweet

But the fruit of the poor lemon

Is impssible to eat

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower's sweet

But the fruit of the poor lemon

Is impssible to eat

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower's sweet
