American Old Time Song Lyrics: 28 Tell Me Where My Evas Gone
Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 28
Tell Me Where My Eva's Gone?
As sung In "Uncle Tom's Cabin."
I had a dream, a happy, happy dream: I dream that I was free,
And in my own dear far off distant home I lived so fancy free.
Solo.
Eva, Eva, tell me where my Eva's gone;
She has left me here to sigh and to mourn;
Can't you tell me where my Eva's gone?
Chorus.
Eva, Eva, tell me where my Eva's gone;
She has left me here to sign and to mourn,Can't you tell me where my Eva's gone?
And In this that seemed a happy dream I was so proud and brave.
And when I woke and found 'twas but a dream I found myself a slave.-Solo & Cho.
I long to dream that happy dream again, to see my home so fair;
For now I roam where all is sad and drear and life is full of care.-Solo & Cho.
