Come sit by my side little darling |
|
Come lay your cool hand on my brow |
|
Promise me that you will never |
|
Be nobody's darling but mine |
|
Nobody's darling but mine love |
|
Be honest, be faithful, be kind |
|
Promise me that you will never |
|
Be nobody's carling but mine |
|
You're as sweet as the flowers of springtime |
|
You're as pure as the dew from the rose |
|
I'd rather be somebody's darling |
|
That a poor boy that nobody knows |
|
My mother is dead and in heaven |
|
My daddy has gone down below |
|
Sister has gone to meet mother |
|
And where I'll go nobody knows |
|
Goodbye, goodbye little darling |
|
I'm leaving this cold world behind |
|
Promise me that you will never |
|
Be nobody's darling but mine |
