Poison Red Berries - Bobby Bare

This morning at dawn Lord I pulled into town

Had some coffee and talked with some old friends of mine

Laughin' bout the good times they all remembered

Then I remembered the time.

And I said no I don’t think much about her no more

And you know seldom if ever does she cross my mind

Yesterday’s gone Lord it’s better forgotten

Like the poison red berries to die on the vine.

Lord I can see all the bright lights back in Dallas

As yesterday moves like a dream through my mind

I didn’t suppose I’d ever forget her

And you know it took such a long time.

But you know I don’t think much about her

Seldom if ever does she ever cross my mind

Yesterday’s gone Lord it’s better forgotten

Like the poison red berries that cling to the mind…
