Gold Watch and Chain |
| Oh the white rose that blooms in the garden |
| It grows with the love of my heart |
| It broke through on the day that I met you |
| It will die on the day that we part |
| Oh I’ll pawn you my gold watch and chain love |
| And I’ll pawn you my gold diamond ring |
| I will pawn you this heart in my bosom |
| Only say that you will love me again |
| Darling how could I stay here without you |
| I have nothing to cheer my poor heart |
| This old world would seem sad love without you |
| Tell me now that we will never part |
| Oh I’ll pawn you my gold watch and chain love |
| And I’ll pawn you my gold diamond ring |
| I will pawn you this heart in my bosom |
| Only say that you will love me again |
| Take back all the gifts you have given |
| But a ring and a lock of your hair |
| And as card with your picture upon it |
| It’s a face that is false but is fair |
| Oh I’ll pawn you my gold watch and chain love |
| And I’ll pawn you my gold diamond ring |
| I will pawn you this heart in my bosom |
| Only say that you will love me again |
| Tell me why that you do not love me |
| Tell me why that your smile is not bright |
| Tell me why you have grown so cold-hearted |
| Is there no kiss for me love tonight |
| Oh I’ll pawn you my gold watch and chain love |
| And I’ll pawn you my gold diamond ring |
| I will pawn you this heart in my bosom |
| Only say that you will love me again |
