Darcy Farrow by The Sunshine Company Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Where the Walker runs down to the Carson Valley Plain
There lived a maiden, Darcy Farrow was her name
The daughter of old Dundee, and a fair one was she
And the sweetest flower that bloomed o'er the range

[Verse 2]
Her voice was as sweet as the sugar candy
Her touch as soft as a bed of goose down
Her eyes shone bright like the pretty light
That shines in the night out of Yerington town

[Verse 3]
She was courted by young Vandamere
And quite handsome was he I am to hear
He brought her silver rings and lacy things
And she promised to wed before the snows fell that year

[Verse 4]
But her pony did stumble, and she did fall
Her dyin' touched on the hearts of us all
Young Vandy in his pain put a bullet to his brain
And we buried them together as the snows began to fall
[Verse 5]
Now, they sing of Darcy Farrow where the Truckee runs through
Sing of her beauty in Virginia City, too
At dusty sundown to her name they drink a round
And to young Vandy whose love was true
