| Take me and love me if you want me
|
| Don’t ever treat me unkind
|
| 'Cause I’ve had that trouble already
|
| And it left me with a dark turn of mind
|
| Now I see the bones in the river
|
| And I feel the wind through the pine
|
| And I hear the shadows a-calling
|
| To a girl with a dark turn of mind
|
| But oh ain’t the nighttime so lovely to see?
|
| Don’t all the nightbirds sing sweetly?
|
| You’ll never know how happy I’ll be
|
| When the sun’s going down
|
| And leave me if I’m feeling too lonely
|
| Full as the fruit on the vine
|
| You know some girls are bright as the morning
|
| And some have a dark turn of mind
|
| You know some girls are bright as the morning
|
| And some girls are blessed with a dark turn of mind |
