1 . Oh! don't you re - mem-ber sweet Al - ice, Ben Bolt,
2. Un - der the hick- o - ry tree, Ben Bolt,
3. And don't you re - mem-ber the school, Ben Bolt,
4. There is change in the things I loved, Ben Bolt,
Sweet Al - ice whose hair was so brown,
Which stood at the foot of the hill,
With the mas - ter so kind and so true.
They have changed from the old to the new.
Who wept with de - light when you gave her a smile.
To - geth - er we've lain in the noon - day shade.
And the shad - ed nook by the run - ning brook,
But I feel in the depths of my spir - it the truth.
And trem-bled with fear at your frown? In the
And list - ened to Ap - ple - ton's mill. The
Where the fair - est wild flowers grew? Grass
There nev - er was change in you.
