[00:00.00] Down From Dover - Nancy Sinatra/Lee Hazlewood
[00:11.84] I know this dress I'm wearing
[00:13.61] Doesn't hide the secret
[00:15.53] I have tried concealing
[00:20.89] When he left he promised me
[00:22.61] He'd be back by the time
[00:24.75] It was revealing
[00:29.52] The sun behind a cloud
[00:31.34] Just casts the crawling shadow
[00:33.56] O'er the fields of clover
[00:38.44] And time is running out for me
[00:41.01] I wish that he would hurry down from Dover
[00:47.65] I 'd been gone so long
[00:49.38] When I left
[00:50.05] The snow was deep upon the ground
[00:56.45] And she have seen a spring
[00:57.97] And summer come
[00:58.80] And now the leaves are turning brown
[01:05.12] And any time a tiny face
[01:07.34] Will show itself
[01:08.10] Cause waiting's almost over
[01:14.16] But she won't have a name
[01:15.60] To give it
[01:16.68] If I don't hurry down from Dover
[01:23.17] My folks weren't understanding
[01:25.08] When they found out
[01:26.91] They sent me from the homeplace
[01:31.78] My daddy said if folks found out
[01:34.33] He'd be ashamed to ever show his face
[01:40.80] My mama said I was a fool
[01:43.26] And she did not believe it
[01:44.83] When I told her
[01:49.81] That everything'd be alright
[01:52.07] Cause soon he'll be coming down from Dover
[02:03.03] She love me more than anyting
[02:05.12] She could not refuse me
[02:07.38] When I needed her
[02:11.84] She was the only one I'd loved
[02:14.07] And she did not believe that
[02:15.89] I was using her
[02:20.64] He couldn't leave me here like this
[02:22.88] So know it can't be so it can't be over
[02:29.76] I wouldn't make her go through this so long
[02:32.72] I'll be coming down from Dover
[02:39.05] My body aches the time is here
[02:41.00] It's lonely in this place where I'm a lyin'
[02:47.66] Our baby has been born
[02:49.33] But something's wrong
[02:50.61] It's much too still I hear no cryin'
[02:56.58] I guess in some strange way
[02:58.35] She knew she'd never have a father's arms
[03:01.03] To hold her
[03:05.83] And dying was her way
[03:07.56] Of telling me he wasn't coming down from Dover
