Bill Monroe

With Body and Soul

See that train coming 'round the bend

Carrying the one that I love

Her beautiful body is still here on earth

But her soul has been called up above

Body and soul, body and soul

That's how she loved me, with body and soul

Her beautiful hair was the purest of gold

Her eyes were as blue as the sea

Her lips were the color of summer's red rose

And she promised she would always love me

Body and soul, body and soul

That's how she loved me, with body and soul

Tomorrow as the sun sinks low

The shadows will cover her face

Her last sun goes down, she's laid beneath the ground

And my teardrops are fallin' like rain

Body and soul, body and soul

That's how she loved me, with body and soul

That's how she loved me, with body and soul
