Walk me out in the morning dew, my honey
Walk me out in the morning dew today
Can't walk you out in the morning dew, my honey
Can't walk you out in the morning dew at all
Thought I heard a young girl cry, mama
Thought I heard a young girl cry today
Oh, I didn't hear no young girl crying, mama, mama, mama
I didn't hear no young girl cry at all
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Thought I heard a young boy crying
Thought I heard a young boy cry today
Oh, I did not hear no young boy crying
Oh, I did not hear no young boy crying
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Now, there's no more morning dew
Now, there's no more morning dew
What they've been saying all these years was true
Now, there's no more morning dew
No, no, no, no more
No, no, no, no more
No more morning dew
Oh, no more morning dew
Walk me out in the morning dew today
Can't walk you out in the morning dew, my honey
Can't walk you out in the morning dew at all
Thought I heard a young girl cry, mama
Thought I heard a young girl cry today
Oh, I didn't hear no young girl crying, mama, mama, mama
I didn't hear no young girl cry at all
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Thought I heard a young boy crying
Thought I heard a young boy cry today
Oh, I did not hear no young boy crying
Oh, I did not hear no young boy crying
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Now, there's no more morning dew
Now, there's no more morning dew
What they've been saying all these years was true
Now, there's no more morning dew
No, no, no, no more
No, no, no, no more
No more morning dew
Oh, no more morning dew

RP stands for Radio Paradise, not Robert Plant. Enough already with him. How about that that famous eclecticism and variety?
Sublime One of my favorite live concert experiences was seeing The Grateful Dead perform this song.
Robert Plants greatest skill ever IMHO was the tambourine...1 again
Give me Nazareth's version. All others are weak and pale in comparison.
For minute I thought this was Robert Plant.
I saw Plant tour with this album and the musicians were exceptional. Ended the night with a ca pela version of Song To The Siren, it was breathtaking!
Nice version. Jerry's is better though.
miss the power chords of Jerry and Phil on this one...

I like this version, but also the Long John Baldry version--they are quite different.
I like the one by Long John Baldry much more.. To be honest, this version made me run to my cd's and play his version :)
Killer

It's so refreshing to hear these comments. Too often, IMHO, it feels like people dismiss aging artists just because they're not as powerful/influential/talented as they once were. But it's not their fault...people get older! The music they create in their later years is often the most interesting, introspective music too, because they're, well...older and wiser. Since their choices are either to disappear and rest on their laurels or to keep on making music, I'd rather them keep it up (as long as they don't embarrass themselves, that is. ;))
That's it.
Well said, a la Mick and the 'boys', Moody Blues, etc. Still holding on.

Sorry. Just because he's 'Plant' doesn't give him a blank check. IMHO
Sorry, can't follow you here. I haven't heard the Allman Bros. version, but to me, it is the Dead or nothing. Even though Rbt. Plant had a great career with Led Zepplin, his cover of this song makes him sound like a loser on American Idol. Sad, sad, sad.

Someone, who visited a concert of Robert Plant, told me he (like so many of his contemporaries) isn't able to hit those high notes anymore. At least not at once. Instead he's working his way up to reach them. Kind of funny, but a bit sad as well. On the other hand, like Federico commented, his voice has gained deepness.
Nice version of this song, but my favorite is not from the Dead but an Allman Brothers version that I have on thier Dreams compilation.

I beg to differ - his falsetto is what keeps me from buying zepp cds.
His voice is much bluesier now, and this a Good Thing (tm)

This is good - guitar work sounds a bit Pagey. . .who is it?

I really like what Robert's been doing these days. Saw him on that PBS show, "Austin City Limits" playing old Zepp favorites and some new stuff. His well-aged voice works quite a bit better on the new stuff.
"Down to the Sea" is another good one from his new stuff. And so is "Darkness Darkness."
I like this version, but also the Long John Baldry version--they are quite different.

Pretty cool, especially the sitar. But this song can be downright heartbreaking when Jerry is singing it.
I was wondering who the original artist was, here is the answer:
"written by Canadian folk singer Bonnie Dobson, but made famous by the Dead"
Plant is da man. He can do any song and make it incredible.
robert plant's voice is undeniably right
you may not agree, but you are wrong
