Letra de Down from Dover - Dolly Parton

I know this dress I'm wearing doesn't hide the secret

I have tried concealing

When he left he promised me that he'd be back

By the time it was revealing

The sun behind a cloud just casts the crawling shadow

Over the fields of clover

And time is running out for me I wish

That he would hurry down from Dover

He's been gone so long

When he left the snow was deep upon the ground

And I have seen a spring and summer pass

And now the leaves are turning brown

And any time a tiny face will show itself

Because waiting's almost over

But I won't have a name to give

It if he doesn't hurry down from Dover

From Dover, from Dover

My folks weren't understanding when they found out

They sent me from the home place

My daddy said if folks found out

He'd be ashamed to ever show his face

My mamma said I was a fool

And she did not believe it when I told her

That everything would be all right

Because soon he would be coming down from Dover

I found a place to stay out

On a farm takin' care of that old lady

She never asked me nuthin'

So I never talked to her about my baby

I sent a message to my mom

With a name and address of Ms. ol' Grover

And to make sure he got that information

When he came down from Dover

I loved him more than anything

And I could not refuse him when he needed me

He was the only one I'd loved

And I just can't believe that he was using me

He couldn't leave me here like this

I know it can't be so, it can't be over

He wouldn't make me go through this alone

Oh he'll be coming down from Dover

My body aches the time is here

It's lonely in this place where I'm lying

Our baby has been born but something's wrong

It's much too still I hear no crying

I guess in some strange way she knew

She'd never have a father's arms to hold her

And dying was her way of telling me

He wasn't coming down from Dover
