Lemon Tree (柠檬树) - Peter, Paul & Mary (彼得、保罗和玛丽)

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 faith 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 is sweet

But the fruit of the poor lemon

Is impossible to eat.

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower is sweet

But the fruit of the poor lemon

Is impossible to eat.

One day beneath the lemon tree,

My love and I did a lie

A girl so sweet that when she smiled

The stars rose in the sky.

We passed that summer lost in love

Beneath the lemon tree

The music of her laughter

Hid my father's words from me:

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower is sweet

But the fruit of the poor

Lemon is impossible to eat.

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower is sweet

But the fruit of the poor

Lemon is impossible to eat.

One day she left without a word

She took away the sun.

And in the dark she left behind,

I knew what she had done.

She'd left me for another,

It's a common tale but true.

A sadder man but wiser

Now I sing these words to you:

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower is sweet

But the fruit of the poor

Lemon is impossible to eat.

Lemon tree very pretty

And the lemon flower is sweet

But the fruit of the poor

Lemon is impossible to eat.

Lemon tree

Lemon tree

Lemon tree

Lemon tree

Lemon tree
