[Verse 1]
DThere’s a church in the valley by the wild-Awood,
No lovelier place in the Ddale;
No Gspot is so dear to my Dchild-hood,
As the Alittle brown church in the Dvale.
[Refrain]
Oh, come come come come
DOh, come to the church in the wild-Awood,
Come to the church in the Ddale,
No Gspot is so dear to my Dchild-hood,
As the Alittle brown church in the Dvale.
[Verse 2]
DHow sweet on a clear Sunday morn-Aing,
To listen to the clear ringing Dbell;
Its Gtones so sweetly are Dcall-ing,
Oh, Acome to the church in the Ddell.
[Refrain]
DOh, come, come, come, come...
Oh, come to the church in the wild-Awood,
Come to the church in the Ddale,
No Gspot is so dear to my Dchild-hood,
As the Alittle brown church in the Dvale.
[Refrain]
DOh, come, come, come, come...
Oh, come to the church in the wild-Awood,
Come to the church in the Ddale,
No Gplace is so dear to my Dchild-hood,
As the Alittle brown church in the Dvale.
[Outro]
Oh, Acome to the church in the Dwild-wood.

ADDITIONAL VERSES (not sung by Dolly Parton)
[Verse 3]
There, Dclose by the church in the val-Aley,
Lies one that I loved so Dwell;
She Gsleeps, sweetly sleeps, ’neath the Dwil-low,
Dis-Aturb not her rest in the Dvale.
[Verse 4]
There, Dclose by the side of that loved Aone,
To trees where the wild flowers Dbloom,
When the Gfare-well hymn shall be Dchant-ed
I shall Arest by her side in the Dtomb.
[Verse 5]
DFrom the church in the valley by the wild-Awood,
When day fades away into Dnight,
I would Gfain from this spot of my Dchild-hood
Wing my Away to the mansions of Dlight.
