Isabelle
There's a headstone on a hill, no body underneath
The pines they hold the tale, keep it under lock and key

Mmmm, Isabelle
Daddy's only girl, he held her too tight
All of Highland knew, but talking ain't polite

Mmmm, Isabelle
As sure as the Shenandoah flows
The winds of the blue ridge blowFor Isabelle

Mmmm, Isabelle
She came into the world and took her mama’s life
He never could forget how she stole those hazel eyes

Mmmm, Isabelle
He tried to hold it back but time took its toll
The day he saw that ring was the day he lost control

Mmmm, Isabelle
As sure as the Shenandoah flows
The winds of the blue ridge blow
For Isabelle
Mmmm, Isabelle
A stranger in the night was the story that he told
They saw the tears he cried but everybody knows

Mmmm, Isabelle
On a still November night, he went down in smoke
How the house went up in flames nobody really knows

Mmmm, Isabelle
Mmmm, Isabelle
