Lyrics

I wish to the Lord I never been born, Or died when I was young, Never would've seen those two brown eyes Nor heard your flattering tongue my love, Or heard your flattering tongue. I truly understand that you love another man, And your heart shall no longer be mine. Well who will shoe your pretty little feet, And whose gonna glove your hand. Who will kiss your sweet red lips, When I'm in a foreign land, my love, When I'm in a foreign land. I truly understand that you love another man, And your heart shall no longer be mine. Well don't ya remember last saturday night, When we stood side by side. You promised that you'd marry me, And be no other man's bride my love, And be no other man's bride. I truly understand that you love another man, And your heart shall no longer be mine. I never will listen what another woman says, Let her hair be black or brown, I'd rather be standing on the top of some hill, With the rain a-pouring down my love, With the rain a-pouring down. I truly understand that you love another man, And your heart shall no longer be mine. Said I will shoe your pretty little feet, And I will glove those hands. And I will kiss your sweet red lips. When you're in a foreign land, my love. When you're in a foreign land. I truly understand that you love another man, And your heart shall no longer be mine. I truly understand that you love another man, And your heart shall no longer be mine.
