Nobody's Darlin' But Mine

Come, sit by my side, little darlin'
Come, lay your cool hand on my brow
And promise me that you will never be
Nobody's darlin' but mine

You're as sweet as the flowers of springtime
You're as pure as the dew on the rose
I'd rather be somebody's darlin'
Than a poor girl that nobody knows

Be nobody's darlin' but mine
Love be honest be faithful and kind
And promise me that you will never be
Nobody's darlin' but mine

My mother has gone up to heaven
My daddy is with her, I know
And sister has gone to meet mother
But where I'll go nobody knows
