Cherokee Maiden - Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys

One night when the moon was bright on the moonlit glade

That is where I found my little Cherokee maid

The memory of that night of love is lingering yet

And I know I never will forget

My little Cherokee maiden I love her so

And though we're far apart

I know I'll never be tradin' my love for her

For anybody else's heart

Someday I'll make a trip back to that Cherokee strip

And I'll carry her away with me

And straight as an arrow flies we'll ride to paradise

My sweet little chickadee my little Cherokee maiden and me

My little Cherokee maiden I love her so

And though we're far apart

I know I'll never be tradin' my love for her

For anybody else's heart

Someday I'll make a trip back to that Cherokee strip

And I'll carry her away with me

And straight as an arrow flies we'll ride to paradise

My sweet little chickadee my little Cherokee maiden and me
