I laughed and she'd smile
It would last for a while
But you don't know what you got
Till you lose it all again
Listen to the mandolin ring
Listen to the music on the lake
Oh,
listen to my heart break
Every time she runs away
Listen to the banjo and the sad song Drifting low,
oh listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to gold
A cool evening dance,
listen to the bluegrass band
Takes a chill from the air,
till they play the last song
And I'll do my time,
keeping you off of my mind
But there's moments that I find
I'm not feeling so strong
Listen to the mandolin ring
Listen to the music on the lake
Listen to my heart break Every time she runs away
Listen to the banjo in the sad song Drifting low
She rolls down my face as she turns to go
Oh, listen to the mandolin ring
Oh,
listen to the mandolin ring
Oh, listen to the music on the lake
Oh,
listen to my heart break
Every time she runs away
Listen to the banjo when you're sad, song drifting low
Oh, listen to the
tears roll down my face as she turns to go
Oh, listen to the mandolin ring
Listen to the mandolin ring
Listen to the mandolin ring
Oh,
listen to the metal in the ring
