Lyrics
It’s a wedding for twin sisters
But only one got a ring
Saying vows on some piney bluff
And oh the birds will sing
I’ll come running when you call on me
Says the sister to her love
But as for my twin sister
I’ve known her well enough
So the bells will ring on Sunday
And the lone sister will cry
How could you leave your own blood
Hung high and dry
So the sister went a wandering
All through the forest wide
Til she found herself a diggen well
And threw herself inside
The rivers still running
From glen to glen
And some can hear the water say
Sister I loved your man
