Franc Mosbaugh - Old Mill Stream Lyrics

Down by the old mill stream
Where I first met you
With your eyes so blue
Dressed in gingham too
It was there I knew
That you loved me true
You were sixteen (you were sixteen)
My village queen (my village queen)
Down by the old mill stream (The old mill stream)

Down by the old (old not the new but the old) mill stream (not the river but the stream)
Where I first(first not the second but the first) met you (you not me but you)
With your eyes (eyes not your ears but your eyes) so blue (not green but blue)
Dressed in ging' (not satin but gingham) too (not three but two)
It was there (not here but there) I knew (not forgotten but knew)
That you loved (love not hated but loved) me true (not false but true)
You were sixteen (not seventeen but sixteen)
My village queen (not the king but the queen)
Down by the old mill stream (The old mill stream)
