I went down by the old oak tree
and spied my true love sittin' on a branch,
and I spoke to him, and he spoke to me,
and neither of us even said a word.

Early in the mornin', sunlight in your hair,
you're standin' in my kitchen suckin' on a peach,
and I said, "I love you," and heard your reply,
and neither of us even spoke a word.

I went down by the old oak tree
and spied my true love sitting on a branch,
but I'll leave you there with the mornin' in your hair,
you're waitin' on your new love;
we never spoke a word.
