Gambler's Bride |
| Hello, my babe. |
| I’m back to stay |
| You’re sure wearing fine pretty things |
| But where is your ring, your ring and chain |
| I gave you last summer in the fallin' rain? |
| «Your ring,» she said, «You've been gone so long |
| I gave your ring away |
| I met a man, a gamblin' man |
| Said he would buy me the Milky Way.» |
| Away, Away. |
| I’ve been away |
| I’ve been so many miles |
| Where is the smile that once lit your face? |
| It seems a tear has taken is place |
| «My smile,» she sighed, with a look a little wild |
| «My smile it is possessed |
| I met a man, a gamblin' man |
| Said he would buy me happiness.» |
| I never, I never |
| You know I never |
| I never had much to give |
| But I gave you my heart |
| Now where is your heart? |
| It was all that I had from the very start |
| «My heart,» she cried, «It has been bought.» |
| She looked at me with fear |
| «I married that man, that gamblin' man |
| Who’d shoot you if he found you here.» |
