Cherokee Maiden

Cherokee Maiden - Bob Wills

Written by：Cindy Walker

One night when the moon was bright on the moonlit glade

That is where I found my little Cherokee maiden

The memory of that night of love is lingering here

And I know I never will forget

My little Cherokee maiden

I love her so

And though we're far apart

I know I'll never be trading my love for her

For anybody else's heart

Someday I'll make a trip back to that Cherokee strip

And I'll carry her away with me

And straight as an arrow flies

We'll ride to paradise

My sweet little Chickadee

My little Cherokee maiden and me

My little Cherokee maiden I love her so

And though we're far apart

I know I'll never be trading my love for her

For anybody else's heart

Someday I'll make a trip back to that Cherokee strip

And I'll carry her away with me

And straight as an arrow flies

We'll ride to paradise

My sweet little Chickadee

My little Cherokee maiden and me
