Come lay
by my side
Little darlin'
Come lay your cool hand
on my brow
Promise me
that you will always
Be nobody's
darlin' but mine
You're as sweet as
the flowers in springtime
You're as pure as
the dew from a rose
And I'd rather be
somebody's darlin'
Than a poor boy
that nobody knows
Be nobody's darlin'
but mine, love
Be honest
be faithful, be kind
And promise me
that you will always
Be nobody's darlin'
but mine...
Goodbye little darlin'
I'm leavin, I'm leavin
this cold world behind
So promise me
that you will never
Be nobody's darlin'
but mine...
