Our Singing Country
5  She threw her arms around me And in these words she said,
"I love you, dear, with all of my heart, God knows, Fd rather be dead.
6  "But your parents, they're against me; They talk of me all the time,
And you are nothing but a hobo, God knows you'll never be mine."
7   It's I turned away and left her, It's I went on down the track; And every step that I would take, She seemed to say, "Come back."
8   Next morning I caught a freight train, It's I went way down the line,
It's I said, "I'll go and ask her If she'll try me one more time."
9  Now, boys, all take warning From a friend that's tried and true. Don't fall in love with such a young girl, Her love will prove untrue.
io God knows I've been a rambler, It's I rambled all around; But if she ever proves true to me I'll marry and settle down.
[268]
