Darling Nellie Across The Sea (1930) |
Oh the night was dark and stormy |
When this message came to me |
It was from my darling Nellie |
Who is far across the sea |
Oh dear Jack I know I’m dying |
I’ve no friends or parents nigh |
But remember dearest Jackie |
There’s a home for us on high |
Oh dear mother I must leave you |
I must go across the sea |
I must find my darling Nellie |
Who so dearly cared for me |
I was wondering through the grave yard |
When found where Nellie lay |
It was there my heart was broken |
It was there I knelt and prayed |
Now I’m left alone in sadness |
On the fields the flowers wave |
And the girl I love is sleeping |
In the cold and silent grave |
Lay me where my Nellie’s sleeping |
Close beside her let me lie |
Where the blooming flowers are creeping |
There oh lay me when I die |
