Flowers Of Love - Bill Monroe
(Album: Mr. Bluegrass; Martin/Monroe)
Those pretty wild flowers I love them so well
The flowers know secrets that I'll never tell
I go out to pick a bouquet of all
And bring them all in before the leaves start to fall
When the leaves start to fall and the flowers have died
If only little darling I could be by your side
Tho' it breaks my heart to hear your name
Soon the wild flowers will bloom again in the spring
I wish I could see her and talk of our love
And of all the pretty flowers sent here from above
Oh maybe I'll see her in Heaven someday
And pick pretty flowers as we go on our way
The memories of you dear I'll never erase
There'll never be another that can take your place
I'll still keep our secret with the flowers of love
And we'll pick them together in Heaven above
William Smith Monroe, known as Bill Monroe (1911-1996), is considered the father of bluegrass. Born in Kentucky, Monroe began playing country music at a young age, influenced by his father's singing and the musical traditions of the region. In 1938, he formed his first group, the "Blue Grass Boys", which achieved success with songs like "Mule Skinner Blues" and "Kentucky Waltz". Monroe's innovative sound, characterized by a fast tempo, intricate harmonies, and instrumental virtuosity, revolutionized country music, giving birth to an entirely new genre: bluegrass. His influence has been profound and lasting, inspiring generations of country and folk musicians. Among his most important albums are "The Essential Bill Monroe" and "Blue Grass Special".
