| The wind is blowin’around my cabin
|
| I hate to hear that mournful sound
|
| I’m all alone and so downhearted
|
| Since my true love ain’t around
|
| I hate to see that sun a-sinkin'
|
| Another night to toss and turn
|
| Another night to dream about her
|
| Another night for her I’ll yearn
|
| She had no cause to go and leave me For I had never done her wrong
|
| She left her home and little children
|
| Out with another man she’s gone
|
| I hate to see that sun a-sinkin'
|
| Another night to toss and turn
|
| Another night to dream about her
|
| Another night for her I’ll yearn
|
| The children, they are sound a-sleepin'
|
| They don’t know their mother’s gone
|
| What will I do when they awaken?
|
| Can I tell them of their mother’s wrong?
|
| I hate to see that sun a-sinkin'
|
| Another night to toss and turn
|
| Another night to dream about her
|
| Another night for her I’ll yearn |
