“Lady May” is a love song written by Tyler Childers to his now-wife fellow Kentucky singer/songwriter Senora May.[Verse 1]

I'm a stone's throw from the mill

And I'm a good walk to the river

When my workin' day is over

We'll go swim our cares away

Put your toes down in the water

And a smile across your face

And tell me that you love me

Lovely Lady May

[Verse 2]

Now I ain't the sharpest chisel

That your hands have ever held

But darlin' I could love you well

'Til the roll is called on high

I've seen my share of trouble

And I've held my weight in shame

But I'm baptized in your name

Lovely Lady May

[Verse 3]

Lord the wind can leave you shiverin'

As it waltzes o'er the leaves

It's been rushin' through my timber

'Til your love brought on the spring

Now the mountains all are blushin'

And they don't know what to say

'Cept a good long line of praises

For my lovely Lady May

[Verse 4]

Now I ain't the toughest hickory

That your ax has ever fell

But I'm a hickory just as well

I'm a hickory all the same

I came crashin' through the forest

As you cut my roots away

And I fell a good long ways

For my lovely Lady May
