I bought a ring and gave it to your daughter Mrs Jones |
|
She promised me that she would be my wife |
|
But after she had talked to you she gave me back my ring |
|
Mrs Jones your daughter cried all night |
|
Mrs Jones your daughter cried all night you wouldn't give your blessings to our love |
|
You said she should stop seeing me and maybe you are right |
|
But Mrs Jones your daughter cried all night |
|
Mrs Jones some day some man may bring your daughter wealth |
|
And all the things that I could never buy |
|
But Mrs Jones we love each other and wealth won't buy a love |
|
And I guess that's why your daughter cried all night |
|
Oh how I wish that I could be the man |
|
Who has the wealth to win your daughter's hand |
|
You know her life is in your hands and you hold on so tight |
|
Mrs Jones your daughter cried all night |
|
Mrs Jones your daughter... |
