He Never Came Back |
An old Jane about 49 came in to view the town |
She registered up at Smith’s Hotel as Miss Ada Brown |
She said she was just 25 and that she was in love |
With a young lad about 16, she called him her turtledove |
The wedding day at last arrived, the birds did merrily sing |
He touched her up for a hundred to go out and buy the ring |
He never came back, no, he never came back |
He’s been gone for a year or more |
That sassy young thing better have that ring |
When we meet on that beautiful shore |
I went down to a restaurant as hungry as a bear |
And a raving thief I did, I grabbed the bill of fare |
The waiter said, now what for you, a piece of steak, I said |
He taken my order and bowed his head and slowly walked away |
