Bury Me Beneath The Willow

We've been playing this song for many years, we learned it from Pap and Paul, you can see their version here:

The song is credited to AP Carter but some people believe he just collected it, because the song may be older than that. The song is written in the style of the old Appalachian Ballads.

Hope you enjoy it!

My Mom took a picture of me asleep under the weeping willow, I was six, in my arms was my first dog Lobo. I love that pup. Thanking you for reviving my memory.

So great to see some great ladies keeping their heritage alive.Appalachian people have that pureness about them.I was always a person who lived in the country and spent time in the outdoors hunting or hiking.I'm always in the North GA Mts on the weekend.You ladies should find a gulley or something in the outdoors that enhances the acoustics that would be great to hear you in that type of surrounding

And just on cue, the wind got up and started blowing trees at “the weeping willow tree”; and then the butterfly made her

[rickcooper]

Good job ladies! You girls are a blessing and so sweet that the butterfly had to come listen. Stay true to what you are doing ladies. For Q and A how about a young ladies perspective and what your feelings are toward this world we live in today. Other young people need to hear from young Christians. Thank you!

Loved hearing this ... wish you had sung it again! The butterfly added a special touch of nature.
