[0-1:58.200]
[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
