| [00:00.50] |
|
| [00:04.28] |
As the lonesome scenes of winter in stormy winds to blow |
| [00:15.42] |
Clouds around the center inclined to frost and snow |
| [00:25.81] |
You're the boy that I have chosen to be my only dear |
| [00:36.48] |
Your scornful heart is frozen and drifted far I fear |
| [00:46.97] |
|
| [00:47.22] |
One night I went to see my love, but he proved most scornfully |
| [00:57.92] |
I asked him if he'd marry me, but he would not marry me |
| [01:08.61] |
The night it is far spent, my love, it's near the break of day |
| [01:19.38] |
I am waiting for your answer, my dear, what do you say? |
| [01:36.89] |
|
| [02:01.69] |
|
| [02:01.94] |
I can but plainly tell you, I 'll lead a single life |
| [02:11.84] |
I never thought it fitting that you should be my wife |
| [02:21.41] |
So take a civil answer and for yourself provide |
| [02:32.17] |
I have another sweetheart and you I have laid aside |
| [02:42.66] |
|
| [02:42.91] |
Now my mind is changing that old love for the new |
| [02:53.61] |
This wide and lonesome valley I mean to ramble thru' |
| [03:03.30] |
In search of someone handsome that might my fancy fill |
| [03:14.02] |
That world is wide and lonesome, if he don't, another will. |
| [03:24.04] |
