| [00:09.202] |
I've only loved three women |
| [00:13.207] |
In all my weary life |
| [00:17.448] |
The first one was my mother |
| [00:21.482] |
The one who gave me life |
| [00:25.645] |
Then God gave me a sister |
| [00:29.981] |
I loved her more than life |
| [00:34.272] |
And after I grew to be a man |
| [00:38.611] |
I took my darling wife |
| [00:42.598] |
For I've only loved three women |
| [00:46.864] |
In all my lonesome life |
| [00:50.959] |
My mother dear My sister fair |
| [00:55.266] |
And my dear darling wife |
| [01:00.211] |
|
| [01:09.231] |
We traveled east we traveled west |
| [01:13.088] |
And God knows that I've tried |
| [01:17.268] |
For every time she did me wrong |
| [01:21.479] |
I'd forgive my loving wife |
| [01:25.529] |
I'd take her in my loving arms |
| [01:29.822] |
Forgive again and again |
| [01:33.860] |
Till one spring day she ran away |
| [01:38.060] |
With a man I thought was my friend |
| [01:42.166] |
For I've only loved three women |
| [01:46.180] |
In all my weary life |
| [01:50.386] |
My sister and my mother dear |
| [01:54.627] |
And my dear darling wife |
| [01:59.301] |
|
| [02:08.318] |
Then I traveled east I traveled west |
| [02:12.576] |
But I traveled all alone |
| [02:16.628] |
And after two long years have gone |
| [02:20.584] |
I found a man wrecked my home |
| [02:24.622] |
They put me in the jailhouse |
| [02:28.445] |
That don't worry me |
| [02:32.972] |
For if you take my life away |
| [02:37.063] |
It will put my worries free |
| [02:41.692] |
I've only loved three women |
| [02:45.544] |
In all my weary life |
| [02:49.539] |
My sister and my mother dear |
| [02:53.631] |
And the one I call my wife |
