Now kind friends I want to tell you Of our little country home It is made of poplar logs upon the hill That's where father died and left us When we were very young But our mother kept us settled on the hill
CH: When our days work on the farm was done She'd would gather us around She would have us get down on our little knees She would pray for God to keep us Through the night until next day In our little old poplar log house on the hill
Our father died a good man Which we all would like to be When I get to Heaven soon his face I'll see When I'm get through with my singing I will bid this world adieu And my little poplar log house on the hill
