[Verse 1]
Where the Walker runs down to the Carson Valley plain
There lived a maiden, Darcy Farrow was her name
The daughter of old Dundee, and a fair one was she
And the sweetest flower that bloomed o'er the range
[Verse 2]
Her voice was sweet as the sugar candy
Her touch was as soft as a bed of goose down
Her eyes shone bright like the pretty lights
That shine in the night out of Yerrington town
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
She was courted by young Vandermeer
And quitе handsome was he as I hear
Hе brought her silver rings and lacy things
And she promised to wed before the snows fell that year
[Verse 4]
But her pony, he did stumble, and she did fall
Her dyin' touched the hearts of us one and all
Young Vandy in his pain, put a bullet through his brain
And we buried them together as the snows began to fall
[Verse 5]
They sing of Darcy Farrow where the Truckee runs through
They sing of her beauty in Virginia City, too
At dusty sundown to her name they drink a round
And to young Vandy, whose love was true
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 6]
Where the Walker runs down to the Carson Valley plain
There lived a maiden, Darcy Farrow was her name
The daughter of old Dundee, and a fair one was she
And the sweetest flower that bloomed o'er the range
